Chapter 111 The boy is capable

The change in court direction affected the Ministry of Justice's retrial.

This time, the presiding judge of the presiding officer Lao Yongjia ignored the opposition of the minister Yang Qiming and directly determined that Zhang Cha was a crazy person on the spot, saying that there was no instructor in this case. It was caused by Zhang Cha's crazy intentions and mistakenly entering the Eastern Palace. Therefore, Zhang Cha should be sentenced to death according to the law, so he would not be punished by death until he was about to bite him and implicate the innocent.

Zheng Ruhai, the young minister of Dali Temple who was judging, and Jiang Guoyang, the censor of Shandong Road of the Censorate, did not make a statement.

"The eunuch whom Zhang Mai offered the imperial concubine has not been reviewed yet, so how can the case be closed!" Yang Qiming angrily scolded Lao Yongjia in court.

"Since I am the chief judge, I should judge according to facts and laws. If the Minister thinks that the judge is inappropriate, he can make the censor impeach the officials, and he can also directly write to Your Majesty to state that the judge is inappropriate and dismiss the officials!" Although Lao Yongjia was only a small official, he had very old experience, so he directly contradicted Yang Qiming.

Yang Qiming's beard was so angry that he had no choice but to report to Zhang Wenda, who was temporarily in charge of the Ministry of Justice.

Zhang Wenda asked to summon Lao Yongjia to discuss matters, but Lao Yongjia ignored it. After the verdict was announced in the court, he ordered the recorder to write the case trial and judgment into a question and submitted it to Tongzhengsi.

After Zhang Wenda found out, he couldn't stop him.

After the results of the review were reported, this time, Fang Congzhe, the cabinet minister, did not intercept and call him back. Instead, he added a pen and said, "I think I can," and ordered him to submit it to the imperial court. The eunuch on duty at the Sili Supervisor Jin Zhong personally sent the book to the Qianqing Palace.

"What a crazy person?"

After seeing the result, Emperor Wanli delayed his approval. He passed the imperial edict in the harem and ordered the three judicial departments to choose a date for retrial.

There is no airtight wall in the world, and soon the Donglin Party members discovered that someone bribed the chief judge and the censor.

"One man is in trouble, Nine Temples are shocked, and the traitor Liu Tingyuan, Liu Guangfu and various officials of the Ministry of Justice, and the powerful officials of each department, the actual situation is full of pearls, jade and money, which leads to the upside down of black and white. A big big case of assassination of the crown prince was closed in a crazy way. It's ridiculous and hateful!" Wang Zhilu said hatefully at Zhang Wenda's home.

"Someone in the officials asked someone to smash it with money. What's so strange about finding such a result?"

Yang Qiming said in a muffled voice that although he and Zhang Wenda were temporarily appointed as officials of the Ministry of Justice and the Minister of Justice, they did not have the power to remove officials from the Ministry of Justice, nor did they directly interfere with officials in the judgment of the case. Unless Kedao impeachment or could hit the real evidence that these people were bribed, the case would not develop as they wanted after the retrial of the case.

"Lao Yongjia was simply a random sentence. He said that according to the law of shooting arrows in front of the Daming Rule Palace, he would kill Zhang Cha, who assassinated the prince. Is this just trying to kill someone to silence him?" Wang Zhili was furious.

"Your Majesty has not yet stated the order in this case, and only asked the Three Laws to retrial at a later date, which shows that Your Majesty does not believe in the results of this trial. We do not need to be discouraged. The most urgent task is to protect Zhang Cha. As long as this person is in charge, the truth will always be revealed." The speaker was Sun Chengzong, who is now the teacher of Emperor Changsun of the Hanlin Academy.

Zhang Wenda nodded and agreed. He told Wang Zhili: "You will have to work hard for a few days as a prison official. Don't let that group of people take action first. Kill people and kill people. In a few days, His Majesty will definitely talk about him. Then there will be a turning point."

"As long as Your Majesty closes the case without knowing the order, even if those who collect money have short hands and soft mouths, they will not dare to force it." Yang Qiming agreed deeply.

"Please rest assured, sir, the official has already arranged the CPC Zhang. All the people in charge are my confidants, and those people can't touch him."

Wang Zhicai is quite confident about this.

...........

Wanli was not confused. No matter how he looked at the trial results reported by the Ministry of Justice, they all showed many suspicions, especially the eunuch in the imperial concubine who reported last time had lost the following text, so he issued an order to retrial.

If the prince's assassination is not found out, he will always be uneasy as the emperor. It has nothing to do with whether he likes the prince or not.

But Wanli was actually contradictory inside. On the one hand, he wanted to know the truth, but on the other hand, he was afraid of the truth.

He was very afraid that it was really the way the imperial concubine sent someone to attack.

Since the attack, Wanli has not gone to the imperial concubine again. Even though he missed his youngest son Chang Yan very much, he thought that it was very likely that the imperial concubine sent someone to assassinate the prince. Wanli felt very distressed, as if he had a needle.

To be honest, it is difficult for outsiders to understand the emperor's contradictory heart at this time.

After all, he and Concubine Zheng have had a husband-to-wife relationship of about 30 years, so how could he be willing to break this love easily? But on the other side is his flesh and blood, how could he tolerate someone harming him?

Under such complex emotions, Wanli could not have been able to completely stand on the side of the prince and deposed the imperial concubine who had been favored for thirty years and had just given birth to a young son for him.

But he couldn't ignore it!

If he doesn't deal with it this time and continues to ignore it, he will definitely feel the heart of the prince. In the future, the prince ascended the throne and became the emperor. Once an outsider instigates him, the imperial concubine will definitely be in trouble.

How can we achieve both ways?

Not only should the imperial concubine restrain herself and no longer have the intention of harming others, but also let the prince let go of this knot and turn swords into jade?

It is undoubtedly best to decide the case according to the trial results reported by the Ministry of Justice, but this is obviously unfair to the prince.

Wanli really thought about it and couldn't think of a solution to both sides.

At this time, the eunuch came to report that the prince had gone to the Yikun Palace of the Imperial Concubine.

"What did Chang Luo do to her place?"

Wanli looked surprised and confused.

.........

Yikun Palace.

When the imperial concubine heard that the prince was asking for a meeting, she was shocked and frightened. She thought that the prince was coming to find her to seek her offense. Even if she thought she was innocent, she was so scared that she went to greet her in person.

Zhu Changluo was shocked when he saw Concubine Zheng coming to pick her up in person. He thought that this woman didn't even look at her directly, and often made trouble in front of her father and said bad things. She didn't take her as the prince seriously at all. What medicine did she take today and how to take it seriously.

Thinking of this, after seeing Concubine Zheng, Zhu Changluo suddenly bowed to her without waiting for Concubine to speak. While crying, he said that someone had distracted from his mother-son relationship with Concubine, and said that he should not transfer a madman to the court, which would damage the reputation of Concubine...

"The Empress must believe me. I have no intention of implicating the Empress. I also firmly believe that the Empress will not harm me! Today I come to see the Empress to clarify my thoughts, to prove the Empress's innocence, and to prove my innocence!"

Zhu Changluo said that he was about to curse and swear.

The Imperial Concubine was stunned.

After reacting, he believed it and thought it was true. He really thought that Zhu Changluo was here to apologize for him, so he quickly bowed. So the imperial concubine bowed, and Zhu Changluo bowed, and the two of them bowed while crying.

Gradually, Zhu Changluo stopped crying and looked at the imperial concubine. The imperial concubine seemed to be moved, and her face showed a bit of compassion.

Zhu Changluo thought that his purpose had been achieved, so he said goodbye to the imperial concubine and said that he was going to the Ganqing Palace to report his feelings to his father.

The imperial concubine stopped her tears and watched Zhu Changluo leave with kindness. After the latter left, the imperial concubine's expression gradually solidified, and there was a lot of confusion in her heart.

"Empress," Zheng Zi whispered from the side.

The imperial concubine said "yes".

Zheng Zi lowered her voice and said, "Why do you look like you are being forced to come to you?"

"Who dares to threaten the prince?"

The Imperial Concubine was stunned. After a long time, she started to laugh.
