Chapter 417: Your Highness has the ability to go to the cabinet
When Li Chen said this, all the officials from the Ministry of Justice present turned pale with fright.
Ge Pingyi also begged for mercy, but was picked up by two Jinyi guards and thrown into the cell.
The dirty cell was full of smelly water and filth. Ge Pingyi, who was used to being pampered, suddenly screamed. He stood up and wanted to escape, but before he could straighten his waist, his head hit the top of the cell.
There was a muffled bang, and Ge Pingyi's official hat fell off. His hair was disheveled and bleeding profusely. He looked embarrassed and pitiful.
Ignoring the pain, he crawled to the door of the cell, grabbed the iron pillar and cried to Li Chen: "Your Highness, Wei Chen is wronged. Wei Chen was just following orders. Such harsh blame falls entirely on Wei Chen.
I'm so dissatisfied!"
With Ge Pingyi taking the lead, other officials from the Ministry of Justice, fearing that they would be next, knelt down and shouted: "Please show mercy to Your Highness."
At this time, Xu Changqing, who was too excited and had really suffered a lot of torture, had been picked up by the Jin Yiwei. He was as angry as a gossamer, but still said firmly: "Your Highness, I have been framed by the gang of people from the Punishment Department, not only from the Household Department.
He directly took Wei Chen away and even tortured him in public. He didn't even give Wei Chen a chance to speak, and just pressed Wei Chen's hand to mark the confession."
"The Ministry of Punishment treats the Imperial Law and the Ministry of Punishment's case-handling regulations as nothing, whether in terms of procedures or motivations. It is so rampant and persecutes loyal people, please Your Highness to seek justice for the humble minister!"
Xu Changqing's accusation at this moment was that he handed Li Chen a knife.
Although even without his sword, Li Chen still had to cut off the unhealthy tendencies of the Criminal Department, but with this sword, Li Chen no longer had any scruples in his attack.
"Ge Pingyi, what else do you have to say?"
Li Chen turned around and stared at the colorless Ge Pingyi in the cell, and said coldly.
Ge Pingyi's face was pale, and the bright red blood slipped from the wound on his head, but he didn't notice it at all. His lips were trembling. Ge Pingyi faced Li Chen's cold and majestic gaze, feeling a sense of despair that the end was coming.
He knew that in the struggle between the East Palace and the cabinet, he was just an extremely small ant, not even a chess piece.
I listened to the words of Qian Shiyan, the Secretary of the Ministry of Justice, who was a member of the cabinet party, and went to do something. Now that the anger of the East Palace is vented on me, can I still escape?
After understanding this, Ge Pingyi suddenly took the plunge.
It’s going to be death anyway, so why bother being submissive?
"Your Highness, if you have the guts to go to the cabinet, what's the use of getting angry at us? You know very well that we are just chess pieces, not even chess pieces. You don't dare to do anything to the cabinet.
But he came to bully us, is this the majesty of my Highness the Crown Prince of Qin!?"
Ge Pingyi said one word, and the surroundings were completely silent.
Even the constant screams, moans and begging for mercy in other cells disappeared without a trace.
Everyone is shocked...Is this Ge Pingyi crazy?
This is not how you seek death.
Sanbao's eyes darkened, and he raised his hand and pinched Ge Pingyi's throat through the railing.
"Your Highness, this treacherous traitor is very disrespectful to Your Highness. Please order Your Highness, and I will crush this traitor's throat."
With his throat being strangled, Ge Pingyi felt it was extremely difficult to even breathe.
He opened his mouth wide and tried to breathe, but he couldn't suck in any air.
Looking at Ge Pingyi, whose face was turning livid, Li Chen said lightly: "Let him go."
