Although Cen Wenwen didn't know whether Wei Zhengju was dead or not, and what his life and death had to do with the prince, he subconsciously realized that "Baiqisi" could not be allowed to be involved in such cases. One was to maintain the relationship between the three law divisions. With the supreme judicial status, I would never want to see someone try to get involved with the "Hundred Knights" first, and then from the "Hundred Knights" to His Highness the Crown Prince.
The empire has developed to this day, and it can be said that everything has been prospered, and the people are prosperous and the country is strong. What is needed is no longer the arbitrary leadership of the past, breaking and then establishing, but a smooth transition of political power.
Stability is better than anything else.
This is not to say that the position of the crown prince cannot be changed, but even if it is to be changed, it can only be changed step by step under the will of His Majesty, without causing any turmoil in the government, otherwise it is very likely to cause a catastrophe.
At present, His Majesty is still fighting in Liaodong, but someone in the court is vaguely pointing the finger at the prince again. How can Cen Wenwen sit back and watch something like this happen?
Protecting the prince is political correctness.
Even if "Baiqisi" really punished Wei Zhengju to death with excessive punishment, even if the prince deliberately favored "Baiqisi" and regarded human life as nothing...
…
Although Cen Wenwen did not have the support of any aristocratic family behind him, nor was he as powerful as Xiao Yu and Changsun Wuji, but he was too old, too high in status, and too prestigious, so he did not hesitate to criticize Liu Jie this time. Showing mercy, Liu Jie only bowed slightly and did not say a word to refute.
This look fell in Li Chengqian's eyes, and he understood Liu Jie's temperament. This must be a deal between Liu Jie and others. He received the benefits but was only responsible for supporting Wei Ting in the court. But what happened The success or failure is not within the responsibility...
This old guy!
Li Chengqian came to understand more and more why Fang Jun had always disliked this person. He was indeed a profit-seeking person with absolutely no character.
Moreover, although this old man has been promoted to the position of imperial minister, his relative Yushi Zhongcheng has not been appointed. With his qualifications and status in the Yushitai, he is enough to have a great influence on the Yushitai. Once the "Hundred Qisi" is Excluded from this, the case was accepted by the Three Judiciary Division, and it is impossible to do this transaction with others again...
Li Chengqian was extremely angry and depressed. How could such a shameless person occupy the court, seize a high position, and become one of the prime ministers and assistants?
What a disgrace to the empire!
Li Chengqian suppressed the anger in his heart, looked at Sun Fujia, the minister of Dali Temple in the palace, and asked: "The chief of Dali Temple is in charge of imperial punishment and the important task of investigation. This time, Sun Siqing will shoulder the heavy responsibility, together with the Ministry of Punishment and Yushitai. Detect this case. The situation in the DPRK and China is turbulent, and there are many people with ulterior motives who are secretly scheming and preparing for their evil intentions. I hope that Sun Siqing will be fair and honest, make the truth of this case known to the world, punish evil, promote good, and support justice! "
These words were a bit serious, so Sun Fujia quickly stepped out of the queue and bowed and said: "Wei Chen takes the edict! Please rest assured, Your Highness, Wei Chen only sees national laws and regulations, good and evil, good and evil, uphold the justice of the law, punish evil and promote good This is the foundation of our existence, no matter who or what happens, it cannot be shaken in the slightest!"
The storm is about to come and the undercurrent is raging. This is the time to take sides. Sun Fuga has never participated in any court disputes and is only loyal to His Majesty Li Er. Since the prince was appointed by your Majesty, your Majesty has not yet deposed the prince. , Loyalty to the Crown Prince means loyalty to His Majesty.
He is only loyal to the prince, no matter who sits on the throne...
Liu Jie, who seemed to have died down after being scolded by Xiao Yu, then said: "Your Highness, I heard that the Commander-in-Chief of Baiqisi opened the city gate before dawn and went straight to Xingqing Palace to see Your Highness. I wonder if he talked about Wei Zheng.
Ju’s matter? Or...does it mention Wei Zhengju’s life and death?”
As soon as these words came out, Li Zhengdian suddenly fell into silence, and everyone stared at Li Chengqian to see how he would answer.
Li Chengqian simply pondered for a while, then nodded and said: "Li Junxian came to the city to meet him, indeed it was about Wei Zhengju's affairs. In the early morning, Wei Zhengju was escorted to 'Baiqisi', and Li Junxian ordered someone
He was imprisoned in the execution room, but before being tortured, Wei Zhengju was already poisoned and died. They conducted an autopsy on the body and found that he had been fed highly toxic poison before he was sent to the 'Baiqisi'."
There was an uproar in Lizheng Hall.
According to the prince's wishes, not only was Wei Zhengju really dead, but he was also murdered, and he wanted to put the blame on "Baiqisi"?
In today's world, there are still people who dare to frame the "Hundred Qisi"?
These are His Majesty Li Er's minions. If someone really does this, it is a blatant attempt to challenge the authority of the Crown Prince to supervise the country. If this matter is not handled properly, the "Baiqisi" will be deeply involved in the crime of murdering good people. The Crown Prince's majesty
You will suffer great losses.
After all, the "Hundred Knights" are the eagle dogs of the imperial power. Now that the prince oversees the country, the "Hundred Knights" are ordered to assist the prince, but they are framed and have a bad reputation. This shows that the prince's ability is really worrying, and it is not enough to frighten the people and dominate the world.
…
Now, everyone finally understands why Xiao Yu tried his best to separate "Bai Qisi" from Wei Zhengju's case. If "Bai Qisi" participated in the review of Wei Zhengju's case, even if the result proves that "Bai Qisi"
"He was framed, but who would believe it?
As a law enforcer, he is the biggest suspect. This is really hard to convince the public...
But if the Three Laws Division intervenes, it will be completely different. The Three Laws Division is the highest judicial authority in the Tang Dynasty. It has great power and can try the illegal affairs of all the civil servants, military officers, nobles and nobles under the king, and all the previous chiefs of the Three Laws Division are upright and upright.
The prestige of Sanfa Si is as heavy as Mount Tai, and no one dares to slander it.
Sun Fujia was even more upright, impartial and strict. Once the Three Law Division confirmed that "Baiqisi" had nothing to do with Wei Zhengju's death, but was framed, it would be tantamount to immediately clearing "Baiqisi" from suspicion, and the prince's prestige
It will be safe and sound.
However, there is only one thing wrong. With Liu Ji's completely abnormal attitude at the moment, who knows whether it will hinder him?
After all, although the Yushitai is not a law enforcement department, it is the number one supervisory office in the world. It has a transcendent status among the Three Law Departments and has a great influence on Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment. As the "former Yushitai Zhongcheng", Liu Ji has control over the Yushitai.
The force is extremely strong. If he tilts his butt... things will be beyond imagination.
Wei Ting was still kneeling on the ground, and his head, which had taken off his black gauze and crown, was already completely gray. First his wife died violently, and now he saw the death of a leader in his family. His expression was haggard, sorrowful, and angry, which made people look down on him and pity him.
"Your Highness," Wei Ting paused and said in a sad tone: "Jingzhao Weishi has always been loyal and willing to serve as His Majesty's eagle and dog for driving. Unexpectedly, he encountered such bad luck one after another, which really made the whole Wei family heartbroken.
Filled with rage! I sincerely request your Majesty to conduct a thorough investigation, avenge Wei Zhengju, and uphold justice for the good people of the world!"
Kneel on the ground and cry non-stop.
The first wife, the eldest son, was deceived by the eldest son's family and made a big mistake. She had no choice but to let the eldest son commit suicide by taking poison in order to save the family. Now that the most outstanding child in the clan has suffered another misfortune, how miserable is the fate of the entire family? And neither the eldest son nor the eldest son.
Or Wei Zhengju, they all obviously became victims of other people's struggle for power. This made Wei Ting even more sad and angry, as if there was a fire burning in his heart!
Li Chengqian didn't know if the Wei family was using a "bitter trick", but at this moment he could only reassure him: "Don't worry, Feng Chang. Gu was ordered by his father to oversee the country, so how could he just watch Xiao Xiao run rampant, ignore the law, and subvert the ethics?"
?We will definitely investigate this case thoroughly and give justice to the Wei family. No matter who is involved, we will punish them severely and set the right course!"
At this moment, the Crown Prince, who was always kind-hearted and kind-hearted, was really furious and furious!
Everyone has selfish desires. If he covets the position of prince and therefore carries out some conspiracies and tricks, Li Chengqian can understand. How can there be so many saints in the world who are pure in heart and have few desires? Moreover, saints are not indifferent to the world and follow the crowd.
If a person does not serve himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth.
However, at this moment, my father led his army to conquer Goguryeo, the Battle of Hexi has just ended, and the war in the Western Regions continues. At this time when the empire is in crisis, he still insists on going his own way for his own selfish desires, regardless of the turmoil of the court, and thus stirs up trouble. This makes people feel
This is unacceptable.
As the saying goes, "If the skin is not there, the hair will be attached." For the sake of their own selfish desires, they ignored the turmoil of the Tang Dynasty. The country was in danger of overthrowing, and the people could fall into dire straits at any time and at any time. Such people have no mercy in their hearts.
There is no loyalty, and it is not an exaggeration to say "ambitious".
Li Chengqian's face was livid, he looked around at the ministers and said in a deep voice: "Let's leave this matter as it is for the time being. Sun Siqing will be responsible for it. The Third Law Department will intervene and strictly investigate the case of Wei Zhengju's violent death. If there is any progress, he will enter the palace at any time to talk to Gu.
Report and retreat from the court."
After saying this, he stood up and walked away without waiting for the courtesy from the important ministers.
The ministers looked at each other, knowing that His Royal Highness, who had always been good-tempered, was really angry today...
Li Chengqian returned to the back hall and just sat down when he saw the chamberlain coming forward and reporting in a low voice: "Your Highness, the two princesses returned from the Jiuwei Mountain Forbidden Garden and said they had something to report..."
