However, his warning eyes and tone did not deter Fang Fangjun...
Fang Jun did not intend to let Changsun Wuji pass easily today. After listening to His Majesty Li Er's words, he reached out and took off the black gauze hat on his head, then knelt on his knees, placed the black gauze hat in front of him, and paused.
Said: "Your Majesty, it is clear to you! When the Third Law Division interrogated the assassination case, it only gave Wei Chen a reply that "there is no evidence of instigation or participation." However, Changsun Taiwei still spoke blazingly and spread it everywhere. It was because Wei Chen was cunning and insidious, so he never stayed.
As a result, the government and the public are still criticizing Wei Chen, and more people still believe that the assassination of Changsun Chong was done by Wei Chen. Although Chen is young, he has always behaved upright, sitting upright and not daring to call himself a sage.
How can a saint, who has a good conduct and integrity, suffer the slander of the eldest grandson Taiwei for nothing? It is not necessary for a minor minister to get to the bottom of the matter and then fight to the death.
Just let him go. If the case remains unsolved for a day, Wei Chen will have to endure his slander, right? If His Majesty thinks that the trial of the Three Justices cannot be restarted, then Wei Chen understands His Majesty's determination to maintain court discipline, but Wei Chen
I hope to reach an agreement with Captain Changsun."
"Huh? What kind of agreement? Let's talk about it."
The first half of what I said made His Majesty Li Er so angry. How many times have I told you my sincere words, but you just have to bear with me for a while, and you just turned a deaf ear? You even went to the court to make a fuss, what a bastard! But the second half of what I said struck your ears, Li Er
Your Majesty squinted his eyes, stroked his beard, and became calm and relaxed.
Obviously, Fang Jun has no intention of fighting to the death. If this is the case, then he is happy to watch Fang Jun fight against Changsun Wuji.
After all, Changsun Wuji did go too far in this matter. He arbitrarily slandered a court minister without any evidence. Do you really think that I am going to die?
Fang Jun knelt on the ground and spoke righteously and impassionedly: "If Wei Chen has any clues about being involved in the assassination of Chang Sun Chong, without being punished by the court law, Wei Chen will immediately resign all official positions and titles and invite himself to go there."
If you cultivate and guard the borders in the Western Regions, you will never set foot in Chang'an!"
As soon as these words were spoken, there were sudden gasps of air in the court hall.
He actually made such a heavy oath, why did he do this?! Although the Tri-Faculty Tribunal Trial was still unable to convict Fang Jun, everyone in the government and the public believed that this incident must have been done by Fang Jun. There is simply no proof in this world.
Don’t go too far, as the lack of evidence does not explain anything.
But now that Fang Jun dares to speak fiercely and make such a poisonous oath in the Tai Chi Palace, it means that there is no room for relaxation.
If it is true that he has never done this before, then he has strong confidence in his own arrangements and is confident that his mistakes will not be revealed.
Nowadays, the courtiers are obviously leaning towards the former... Otherwise, why would they be so resentful and make such an oath?
His Majesty Li Er's eyes flashed, and he was surprised at Fang Jun's bravery, daring to bet his whole life's future, and he sighed in his heart.
Without waiting for His Majesty Li Er to ask, Fang Jun continued: "On the contrary, if no one can prove that Wei Chen was involved in the assassination, then please ask Captain Sun to go to Wei Chen's mansion to plead guilty, and put up a notice to be published all over the world.
, to clear the suspicion of Wei Chen and restore his reputation!"
Oops!
The ministers almost screamed, are you asking Changsun Wuji to apologize? This is simply killing Changsun Wuji! As the number one person in the dynasty, one person is worth tens of millions, Changsun Wuji has always been
The most outstanding achievements in the world recognized by the government and the public. I heard that His Majesty intends to establish Lingyan Pavilion, hang the portraits of several heroes in it, worship them with incense throughout the seasons, and pass them on from generation to generation. The handicraftsman on the first portrait is Changsun Wuji.
Well deserved.
For such a person, you can just ask him to publicly apologize, but also post a notice and publish it all over the world?
You can lose your life, but if you lose this face, not only will his eldest grandson Wuji's great reputation be wiped out, but the entire eldest grandson's family will suffer from irredeemable flaws!
Sure enough, after Changsun Wuji heard this, his round face turned red and white, and he said angrily: "Son, how dare you do this? I have been an upright man in my life, and I have been brilliant..."
"Come on, who believes these nonsense?"
Fang Jun interrupted Changsun Wuji's words, stared at him with piercing eyes, and asked: "Captain Changsun kept saying that the subordinate assassinated Changsun Chong, so I ask you, do you dare to do it in front of His Majesty, in front of civil and military officials?"
In front of the minister, make an oath?"
Changsun Wuji's face looked like pig's liver. He really didn't expect Fang Jun to be so tough. This was simply a blow!
How can anyone play such a game, risking their whole life and family glory?
Even if you did not do this, there is no guarantee that anything will happen. Even if you are innocent, what if I design a plan to get you involved?
crazy……
He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Those who are clear will be clear about themselves. Right and wrong will be dealt with by the court's laws. I despise such nonsense, swearing and making vows like a gangster in the market!"
Fang Jun looked indignant, but thought in his heart: I'm sure you don't dare!
His mouth was still aggressive: "Every time Taiwei Changsun told people that it was the lower officials who sent people to assassinate Changsun Chong, then I dare to ask Taiwei Changsun, if Changsun Chong appeared in front of people one day and was proved to be unharmed, then Taiwei Changsun would
"Does the lieutenant want to apologize to the officials and explain it to the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty to set the record straight?"
Changsun Wuji's expression changed again.
His original plan was to wait until the limelight of the matter was over, then go to the emperor to plead guilty, saying that Changsun Chong survived the catastrophe. Anyway, his goal would have been achieved by then, so what if he had wronged Fang Jun?
But I didn't expect that Fang Jun would point this out early...
He could only say: "Absurd! Assassinations do exist. Does it mean that just because Chang Sun Chong is still alive, the assassinations don't count?"
As soon as I said it, I immediately regretted it.
Sure enough, Fang Jun keenly grasped the loophole and loudly said: "If Captain Changsun said this, did he already know that Changsun Chong is not dead at all, and that his whereabouts are under the control of Captain Changsun?"
Changsun Wuji argued: "I never said that, it's up to you to think whatever you want."
I couldn't help but feel a little anxious in my heart. Maybe I was really old and couldn't keep up with my reactions, so I actually showed such loopholes...
Although he did not admit it, the expressions of all the officials in the palace were a little strange.
They are all human beings. Maybe they are as anxious as Changsun Wuji and fail to think carefully. But after thinking deeply, how can we not understand what this means?
The ministers remained silent, but their hearts were full of mixed emotions.
