Let's say that after Lu Yang took Deng Ning and her servants back, Shuntian Mansion declared that it had entered hell.
During the questioning, Deng Ning basically made no other moves except screaming and losing her temper and throwing things. The officials were all scared and complained in front of Lu Yang one after another. Lu Yang smiled and said, "If you don't go, don't I?"
Are you going? It’s okay, just plug your ears with cotton. If she doesn’t say anything, we will fight with her. If she can’t hold on, she will naturally say it.”
The official had no choice but to continue to deal with Deng Ning. After dealing with her for most of the night, Deng Ning simply lay down on the table and slept, ignoring no one. She was not using any psychological tactics, but Wang Xiangjun had told her not to ask for anything.
Said, she naturally kept silent and waited for Wang Zhenxi to come to save her.
After going to court on the second day, Wang Zhenxi stopped Lu Yang and said, "Master Lu, can you lend me a moment to speak?"
Lu Yang looked around. The courtiers were filing out, looking at the two people standing together and talking slightly. This was indeed not a good place to talk.
However, Lu Yang smiled and said, "If the Prime Minister has something to say, you might as well say it directly."
Let's see what he says in public.
Chang Ping, the Minister of Rites, who was behind Prime Minister Wang, said with a stern face: "Master Lu, we are all officials once in a while. Going out to chat occasionally to enhance our relationship will also be helpful to your career."
Lu Yang smiled and said, "Mr. Chang, why don't you just tell me that you are shameless?"
Prime Minister Wang and Chang Ping were both stunned. They didn't expect Lu Yang to be so disrespectful. Prime Minister Wang immediately smiled and said, "Master Lu, I misunderstood. Master Chang always speaks like this. Don't worry about it. The truth is that you just want to ask me today."
How is the progress of the adopted daughter's case?"
Lu Yang really didn't expect that with his dignity as prime minister, he would actually ask about this matter in front of so many people. Well, since he didn't cover it up, there was no need for her to hide it. He then said: "It's still in the stage of trial and evidence collection. Deng
The servants and maids around Ning have all confessed, so the case can basically be implemented, but for the sake of caution, I still need to investigate more carefully, including Deng Ning's confession, I must treat it with caution."
In other words, even if the maid and servant confessed everything, she would still find ways to get Deng Ning to plead guilty. Once she confesses and goes to court, it is unlikely that Prime Minister Wang will intervene. Because the oral confessions and physical evidence are all directed.
Clear and without any doubt.
After listening to Lu Yang's words, Prime Minister Wang knew that she had made up her mind to deal with Deng Ning. There was little chance of finding a breakthrough with her, so it seemed that she would have to start with Long Yinle.
Chang Ping said: "There are still many doubts about this case. It is still unknown whether those servants and maids were tortured to extract confessions. Isn't it too arbitrary for your Excellency to make a judgment so quickly?"
Lu Yang crossed his arms and looked at Chang Ping, "All cases will have doubts. It is because of doubts that they need to be investigated. Just now, the official has said that this case is in the investigation stage and the truth of the matter is not yet completely clear. Your Excellency, you are so quick to investigate."
To say that officials are arbitrary in handling cases is this really arbitrary, right?"
Chang Ping clasped his fists and smiled, "There is no doubt that there is no guilt. Besides, this is just a small family matter. It is a bit unreasonable for the government to interfere in family affairs. I heard that Mr. Lu and Long Yinle, the daughter-in-law of the fifth master of the Liu family, are close friends. No,
Do you know if there is a possibility of private giving and receiving?"
This is a very serious accusation! Lu Yang knows very well that Chang Ping is not a simple person, so by saying this, he is clearly trying to shift the focus and make a big fuss out of her relationship with Yin Le, so that everyone will ignore Deng Ning's own crime.
Lu Yang shrugged, "I don't know? Maybe there is. That day at the Liu Mansion, Xiaguan drank tea all afternoon. I think he benefited from the Liu family. I will take care of this matter."
Ask and explain to the emperor in person that if the emperor believes the official, the official will continue to investigate the case. If the emperor does not believe it and wants to punish the official with a crime, then the official will have to admit it. Who asked the official to steal someone else's tea?
I have to drink all afternoon."
As for why she drank tea all afternoon, Prime Minister Wang knew this very well. It was because Wang Xiangjun insisted on meeting Liu Ye, which delayed the handling of the case, causing the dignified Lord Yin to wait at the handling location for an afternoon. In Shengyan
Before, even if Lu Yang didn't say anything, the emperor and even the courtiers would think that Wang Xiangjun was exercising the power of the prime minister at that time, because although she didn't say that she was sent by the prime minister, everyone could understand it, as long as Lu Yang added one or two more words to her words.
It seems like there is nothing.
As a result, Lu Yang was unable to sue, but instead he was convicted of the prime minister's interference in the Shuntian Mansion's handling of the case for favoritism.
Prime Minister Wang finally couldn't restrain the anger in his heart and said coldly: "Master Lu, please take care of yourself!" After saying that, he walked away.
Chang Ping, on the other hand, stood tall and straight in front of the square stone pillars, looking at her calmly, "Sir, why bother?"
Lu Yang shook his head, "I don't understand what Mr. Chang said. However, do you think I shouldn't investigate this case?"
"There is no need to pretend to be crazy and stupid like this. In my heart, Master Lu has always been a smart woman. How come she has become so stupid today? I have offended the Prime Minister because of your personal relationship with Long Yinle. Think about it, you will have other problems in the future.
Are you living a good life?" Chang Ping said with regret.
Thirty-six strategies, the most important thing is to attack the heart. Chang Ping is indeed very smart and has strategies, but his mind is broken.
Lu Yang then showed a slightly worried look, "Ah? Your Majesty's words woke up the dreamer. Xiaguan has an upright temperament and doesn't know how to beat around the bush. I think the emperor admires this aspect of Xiaguan, so he knew that Xiaguan was a woman.
Appoint Xiaguan as the Yin of Shuntian Prefecture. The emperor told Xiaguan before he took office that day. He said, Lu Yang, this Shuntian Prefecture is an important place in the capital. In managing the security of the capital, you will definitely learn a lot.
Courtiers and dignitaries, but you don’t have to be afraid. Just do whatever comes to your mind. If a villain comes and tells you to take sides, just tell him to get lost. Your Majesty will always remember your Majesty.
What the old man said, so in order to comply with the imperial edict at this moment, I have to tell Mr. Chang, get the hell out of you."
Chang Ping smiled faintly. His tall figure was bathed in the morning sun, and there were tiny golden gleams on his face. He should have been angry because his eyes were gloomy, but instead he smiled, and he smiled like that
It's natural and doesn't feel forced at all.
He stared at Lu Yang for a long time and then said: "Master Lu, thank you for my kindness."
Lu Yang saluted respectfully, "I will definitely convey Lord Chang's gratitude to the emperor."
Chang Ping's narrow eyes stared at Lu Yang for a while. Lu Yang couldn't help but sigh and asked, "Mr. Chang, are you falling in love with Xiaguan when you stare at him like this?"
Chang Ping was stunned. He raised his eyes and looked away. He coughed unnaturally and said in a panic, "That's nonsense. I just think you are boring." After that, he fled in three steps at a time.
Chang Ping naturally did not fall in love with Lu Yang, but he was a rigorous scholar. How could he talk about these things between men and women casually? So he blushed and didn't know how to deal with it, so he had to run away.
