Chapter 523 Debate in the courtroom
"His Majesty!
As the lord of the harem, how can the empress interfere with the government affairs of the previous dynasty! "
Seeing that all the officials stopped talking, Master Cui Ren pouted his neck and said in a deep voice: "Besides, His Highness the Crown Prince has a very close relationship with Zhao Ya and the other three, and the Empress has always doted on His Highness the Crown Prince, so it is hard to guarantee that the Empress will not pervert the law for the sake of Your Highness!
Therefore, I believe that the case should be tried by the three divisions, so that Doctor Wei and his son can be given justice! "
"Oh~"
Li Shimin sneered when he heard this.
The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were also full of astonishment.
Public impeachment of Empress Changsun...
Master Cui Ren is breaking the jar, is he trying to exterminate himself from the Tang court?
Li Jing's playful expression also dissipated in an instant.
Turning to look at Master Cui Ren, he asked in a cold voice: "Doctor Cui, are you suspicious of your mother?"
"Wei Chen dare not!"
Cui Renshi still had a sliver of reason, and hurriedly shook his head in response.
Seeing this, Li Jing snorted coldly, turned around and said, "Report to Emperor Father!
Hai'er's request for grace from his mother was not to protect Zhao Ya and the others, but to find out the truth of the case. "
"Find out the truth of the case?
Is His Highness the Crown Prince trying to turn a deer into a horse? "
Li Shimin hasn't spoken yet.
Cui Renshi raised his eyebrows, turned around and said: "Report to Your Majesty.
Weichen heard that Mr. Dai had gained something yesterday.
If His Royal Highness hadn't forcibly taken away the criminal, the case would have been solved yesterday!
And His Highness acted like this only because the criminal was a member of His Highness the Crown Prince.
What's more, this case was a farce led by His Highness from the beginning to the end! "
"Um?!"
Li Shimin frowned pretendingly, and asked loudly: "Prince, is what Doctor Cui said true?"
"Father, what Doctor Cui said is true.
But he only knows one, but not the other. "
Li Jingjing nodded, and said with a righteous face: "My father doesn't know something.
The yamen of the Third Division of the Tang Dynasty was too arbitrary in adjudicating cases, and they always liked to extract confessions by torture.
But human life is greater than heaven!
It's fine if you meet the real culprit.
Once you encounter innocent people who have been wronged, you will inevitably be beaten into a trick and cause an injustice! "
"Your Highness's words are too alarmist!"
Dai Zhou's face straightened when he heard the words, and he went out of the class quite dissatisfied and said, "I report to Your Majesty, the people are so ignorant.
If there is no punishment, the criminal will certainly not be willing to absolve the crime.
And only when there are all human evidence and material evidence, and the criminal is stubborn, the humble official will order someone to be tortured.
How can this cause injustice. "
Li Shimin thought about it for a moment, nodded and said seriously: "There is some truth in what Dai Aiqing said.
Before I entered the palace, I saw with my own eyes that a criminal refused to plead guilty! "
"Father!"
Li Jing shook his head when he saw it, took out a stack of files and said with a smile: "If the evidence is convincing, it is understandable for Mr. Dai to torture.
But Wei Shuliang's case is full of fog, and Hai'er really doesn't know where all the evidence of this person comes from. "
"Oh?"
Seeing this, Liu Jishu hurriedly took over the file.
Li Shimin looked at it with great interest, squinted his eyes and said, "Dai Aiqing.
I have decreed in the past that homicide cases need to be reconsidered in three provinces and five times, and the government should do everything possible to be careful and prudent.
But the case of Wei Shuliang is complicated, and judging from the files, it is still unclear who the real culprit is.
I really don't know why Dai Aiqing is sure that this is what Zhao Ya and the other three did? "
"This……"
Dai Zhou stopped talking when he heard the words.
Most of the civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty also changed their expressions.
In the eyes of the world, this case was instigated by Li Jing secretly.
And Zhao Ya and the others are just taking the blame for him.
It's just that Li Jing has always been impeccable in his work, so everyone impeached Zhao Ya and the other three by retreating.
Now that Li Shimin said in public that Zhao Ya was innocent, could it be that he wanted to excuse Li Jing?
"His Majesty!"
Others were silent, but Dai Zhou couldn't stay out of it.
Seeing Li Shimin's pale face, he hurriedly clasped his fists and shouted: "Report to Your Majesty.
The three of Zhao Ya clashed with Wei Shuliang yesterday, and the witnesses identified her in public.
But its own owner refused to plead guilty.
If severe punishment is not imposed, it will be difficult to conclude this case! "
"Hehe~
I really don't know, the followers of the Wei Mansion can also be called witnesses? ! "
Li Jing sneered, looked at Li Shimin seriously and said, "Father.
Early this morning, the maid of Yihong Courtyard just discovered that Wei Shuliang had died in the room.
After being inspected by the priest of Dali Temple, it was found that he slit his throat after being stunned!
It can be seen that the real culprit must be a veteran of Bijian.
Otherwise, how could we assassinate Wei Shuliang in full view.
And the reason why Mr. Dai suspected Zhao Ya and the others was because Wei Shuliang had robbed civilian girls in the royal teahouse after being drunk yesterday!
But Mr. Dai didn't know that the boy happened to pass by the backyard of the tea house at that time, and he also had a conflict with Wei Shuliang because of this incident.
If Master Dai really doubted Zhao Ya and the others because of this, wouldn't the boy also be guilty? "
"Oh?
Dai Aiqing, are you trying to identify the prince? "
Li Shimin borrowed the donkey from the slope and asked bluntly.
Dai Zhou faltered and faltered when he heard the words, and dared not agree for a while.
After all, he has no evidence in his hand.
If Li Jing was hastily identified as the mastermind behind the scenes, Li Jing would inevitably seek an opportunity to retaliate.
"His Majesty.
Wei Chen only pays attention to evidence in handling cases, and yesterday suspected Zhao Ya and the three of them for this reason.
However, because of this, I have no evidence to prove that the case is related to His Royal Highness, so I really dare not make random guesses. "
"Oh~
Dai Aiqing is more cautious. "
Li Shimin nodded with a sneer.
Li Jingjian smiled and said: "Father.
Zhao Ya has a close relationship with Hai'er, and the common people have heard about it for a long time.
Yesterday's conflict between the boy and Wei Shuliang, someone with a heart must have noticed it.
It is the child's opinion.
The real murderer behind the scenes murdered Wei Shuliang secretly, but in fact it was to frame the blame, and wanted to cause the boy to confront Dr. Wei.
It's just that the boy never expected that Dr. Wei and Mr. Dai would not notice such a clumsy divorce plan! "
"A plan to divide?!"
Dai Zhou was stunned when he heard the words, and suddenly a light flashed in his heart.
He was preconceived yesterday, and he was too arbitrary when trying the case, so he didn't notice the weirdness in it just now.
Let me ask you, if this matter was really done by Li Jing, how could he not conceal his suspicions.
After all, judging from the way he dealt with the family in the past, it is absolutely impossible to assassinate Wei Shuliang so hastily.
"His Majesty!
The case was full of fog, and it was difficult to tell the truth from the fake for a while.
I also ask Your Majesty to allow the minister to examine carefully, so that His Highness the Crown Prince and Wei Shuliang can be justified! "
Dai Zhou thought for a moment, and sincerely saluted.
Wei Zhengyi's complexion suddenly changed, and a complex look flashed in his eyes.
Everyone is not stupid, so they naturally understand that Li Jingzhi's words are very reasonable.
But it was also because of this that he felt more and more sour in his heart.
He didn't care about outsiders targeting Li Jing, the current crown prince was originally a target of impeachment and frame-up.
But how innocent is Wei Zheng?
How innocent is his son?
Could it be that just because he, Wei Zheng, and Li Jing were at odds, others took his son's order to fight against him?
If so, where did the people behind the scenes put Wei Zheng?
This is clearly because he didn't take Wei Zheng seriously, and he didn't care whether he fought back after knowing the truth.
It seems that the power of the person behind the scenes is definitely not under him, Wei Zheng!
