Zhang Yunji said in a low voice: "Your Majesty is not willing to let Erlang plead guilty, but he is forced by the situation and has to do so. Among the many pieces of evidence collected by the Ministry of Punishment, it is easy to explain the rest, but the jade pendant cannot be explained... Since it cannot be explained...
If Erlang is legally innocent, how can he take advantage of this opportunity to kill all the officials from the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, Yushitai, etc. who secretly helped Wei Yijie, and restore the bright sky to the Tang Dynasty? In this way, even if Erlang is deeply wronged, he is still
Take revenge and get what you want..."
Fang Jun wanted to curse: I got what I wanted with a hammer!
His Majesty Li Er has been silent the whole time, but this is the idea behind the fight?
It stands to reason that this is a good idea. Once Fang Jun pleads guilty, the big bosses hiding behind the scenes must think that the overall situation is settled, and they will jump out and beat Fang Jun, the lost dog. Just in time, His Majesty Li Er grabbed them one by one, and they caught the painful foot.
, it will definitely be rectified in the future.
As for Fang Jun, there is no need to worry. It is naturally impossible to "execute" or anything like that. The worst possible outcome is to be exiled from the army and sent to the army. With Fang Jun's status and talent, coupled with the support and protection of the emperor out of guilt, it does not take ten or eight years.
It is impossible to return to the center again. It is impossible to become the prime minister, but it is definitely not a problem to have the power.
It cannot be said that he is not scheming.
Of course, if the premise of all this is not Fang Jun's confession, Fang Jun still thinks it's pretty good...
But now that he is being stained for nothing, how can he be willing to do so?
But he also knew that this extremely strange jade pendant had become his Achilles heel. Not to mention that outsiders could not exonerate him on this point, even he himself could not explain it...
How did this jade pendant end up in Changsun Dan's hands, and how could he still hold on to it until he died?
Damn it...
Liu Dewei did not tell Fang Jun these words, but told Zhang Yunji. It can be seen that Liu Dewei is trying his best to win over the latter at this stage. This can be regarded as a small or medium credit. The matter has been done well, His Majesty Li Er discusses the merits.
Naturally, Zhang Yunji's benefits are indispensable when giving rewards.
Zhang Yunji finished what Liu Dewei had told him and said softly: "Erlang, you can think about it carefully, but I think that since it is His Majesty's will, you don't need to worry, since His Majesty can treat you badly anyway? Haha, I will retire first."
."
After saying that, he stood up and left briskly.
Fang Jun was left sighing in the cell with a look of reluctance...
After a while, he sighed and made up his mind.
That jade pendant... is really an inexplicable existence. It is unrealistic to expect His Majesty Li Er to intervene in the judiciary and issue an imperial edict directly. In the eyes of His Majesty Li Er, no one's status is as stable as the government and the continuation of the policy.
Important. Besides, even if His Majesty Li Er is willing to interfere with the judiciary for his sake of breaking the law, he will probably be dismissed by those officials who pride themselves on being upright and will never succumb to imperial power.
After all, the chief of Menxia Province is Wei Zheng, the "human mirror"...
Will a piece of jade pendant cut off all the ways of being a minister?
Fang Jun was extremely depressed. Even if this jade pendant had wings, it still couldn't be explained. Could it be that he had learned Sun Monkey's cloning technique?
Mother...
Sighing again, Fang Jun beckoned: "Hurry and bring the paper and pen. I want to confess."
That's it...
Although it will be extremely difficult to become the prime minister and assistant in the future, there are no absolutes in the world. Who knows what direction the court will eventually develop? What if Li Chengqian inherits the throne in the future, and the person in charge of the political affairs hall is someone like Ma Zhou?
People close to him might also recommend him to become Prime Minister...
New trends come and go, and there are countless thoughts.
But after waiting for a long time, the paper and pen were still not available...
Fang Jun was already extremely depressed, but now he was even more annoyed. He slammed the table and shouted: "Where are the people? If you don't bring the paper and pen quickly, do you have to wait until someone breaks down your prison in the Ministry of Punishment?"
Before he finished speaking, two sounds of "Plop" and "Plop" came from behind him.
Fang Jun turned around and saw two jailers kneeling behind him, with tangled and sad expressions on their faces...
Fang Jun was stunned: "What are you doing?"
One of the jailors swallowed his saliva, looked sad, and begged: "Fang Erlang... Fang Erye! I beg you, can we stop writing?"
Fang Jun: "...?"
Do I have tinnitus?
Aren't you the big villains who persecuted me and asked me to confess? How come I want to confess now, but you won't let me confess?
Another jailer said anxiously: "Fangfu Yin... just spare us! We are just a small jailer, and we are like ants in your eyes. Why do you have to be in trouble with us?"
Fang Jun became more and more confused: "As you said, why did I ever put you in trouble?"
As a time traveler from later generations, I have a sense of "human rights" that did not exist in this era. Although it is impossible to say that everyone is equal, there is absolutely no class ideology of this era with clear hierarchies and cruel oppression.
The first jailer had a grimace on his face: "What... you took the paper and pen from left to right, but you never wrote a confession... Not only did you not write, you also always wrote poems... Wei Shilang was going crazy. Sorry, we have been told to never bring you paper and pen again... Don't lie to us. You can't write a confession at all, and you want to write poetry again, right? Fangfu Yin, Fang Consort, Fang Fang Second Master, please, take pity on us and stop writing..."
Fang Jun: "...!"
What the hell, is this the Tang Dynasty version of "The Wolf Cried"?
Another jailer was about to cry and begged: "Fangfu Yin, please have mercy on us. We have a ninety-year-old mother at home and a baby waiting to be fed. If we lose this job, the whole family will be in trouble." I'm going to starve to death..."
Fang Jun wanted to shout: I really want to write a confession!
But looking at the expressions on the faces of the two jailors in front of him, "I won't believe anything you say," Fang Jun could only remain speechless.
Why is it so difficult to write a confession...
*****
The harsh winter is gradually fading away, and the cold wind blowing from the northern mountains is getting warmer day by day. The Qinchuan mountains and rivers in Guanzhong's 800 miles are magnificent, and everything is sprouting with vigorous vitality.
Spring is just around the corner, and scholars from various states have gathered together. Together with the people who went to the Ministry of Justice to protest, the entire city of Chang'an is crowded with people, and the atmosphere is gradually becoming solemn. The guards of Suwei Palace, the military guards guarding the capital, and the patrols to maintain public security... teams of troops The soldiers shuttled back and forth in the city, and their neat steps were like a dull drum beating in people's hearts, and they became tense.
All the ministries of the imperial court are running smoothly and working overtime without any carelessness. Scholars, common people, merchants... millions of people are gathered in the city. A slight oversight can be a major event that can shake up the empire. Who dares to ignore it?
Princess Changle's carriage drove into the house amid patrols of soldiers on the street...
In the back hall, Princess Gaoyang and the two little princesses Jinyang and Hengshan suddenly had red eyes when they saw Princess Changle in Taoist robes.
Princess Jinyang threw herself into Princess Changle's arms, called out "sister" sadly, and began to cry.
Princess Changle sighed slightly, caressed Princess Jinyang's head with her bare hands, and persuaded softly: "Why should Sizi blame himself? Although the prince's consort is in prison, his father still loves and protects him, and he will not let him suffer too much.
It’s aggrieved. Besides, I still have my husband, so don’t worry.”
As for the relationship between Si Zi and Fang Jun, she is sometimes quite confused about it.
The father-in-law has many children, most of the princesses are married, and there are more than a dozen consorts. But why can Sizi be so close to that black-faced stick? It’s because Fang Jun will lead Sizi to play from time to time, even if
Doesn't it matter if you are beaten and scolded by your father?
Princess Gaoyang lightly gathered her skirt and bowed down: "Shu'er has met my sister."
The etiquette cannot be discarded.
In fact, since they got married, she has become much closer to Princess Changle. In the past, when she was in the palace, although she was quite loved by His Majesty Li Er, she naturally could not be favored by the two princesses Changle and Jinyang who were like the apples of his eye.
, there is inevitably a little jealousy in my heart...
But after getting married, this jealousy has long since disappeared.
In the past, Princess Gaoyang was extremely dissatisfied with her marriage...
Who is Fang Jun? He is dull, stupid, and submissive. Apart from his strong body, there is no trace of masculinity at all. Although his appearance is not bad, he is far different from the elegant gentleman in Princess Gaoyang's ideal.
A dark-faced god...
However, since the "violation" incident at Lishan Palace, Princess Gaoyang's impression of Fang Jun has completely changed...
