Chapter 734 Public Trial
Every time Zhong Weiwei saw Li Shang, he couldn't help but want to get angry.

Thinking of the quiet and indifferent appearance of this person when he first appeared, and looking at his cheeky appearance at the moment, she really felt that life was like a play.

She stared at Li Shang, but before she could react, her hand was pinched heavily by Chonghua, which hurt a little. She looked back and saw him looking straight ahead with a serious expression, his steps were steady and moderate, and there was nothing unusual about it.

But she just knew that he was angry, and he was very angry. Why, he was just jealous.

Zhong Weiwei thought it was a little funny again, she curled up her fingers, and scratched Chonghua's palm lightly twice, Chonghua glanced at her from the corner of her eyes, her face was still expressionless, and she couldn't tell if she had calmed down a bit.

She sat down on the right side of Chonghua, and sat down again and again. Looking around, the clan, nobles, Grand Master Lu, ministers, and people from Dongling were all present.

Chonghua is not the person who tried the case, but just a bystander.

The people who tried the case were Dali Temple, the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and Yushitai. They ordered witnesses, exhibited evidence, and interrogated them in an orderly manner. Everything was very clear, and it was hard to be so clear in such a short period of time.

Grand Master Wei was weak and did not defend himself; King Qi was crying miserably all the time, saying that he was wronged and forced.

Zhong Weiwei sat dignifiedly, secretly glanced at Chonghua from time to time, she thought he would be very sad.

No matter how discordant they were, the two people below were always his own uncle and younger brother. Being betrayed by his close relatives was probably the most painful thing in the world.

Chonghua, however, remained expressionless, staring straight ahead indifferently. There was no trace of displeasure or anger on his face. He just sat there quietly, majestic and calm, as if he stayed out of the matter.

This is the emperor. He must be majestic and calm in front of others, and he must not even show his true emotions. Only in this way can he show "the king's heart is unpredictable" and make the courtiers afraid.

When Zhong Weiwei saw Chonghua like this, he felt a little more distressed for no reason, and he probably only did so undisguisedly in front of her.

Today's public trial is actually to let everyone see what will happen to the treasoners. The outcome has been decided long ago. The evidence is conclusive, and Grand Master Wei and King Qi cannot deny it.

Even so, the whole process lasted for nearly two hours. Zhong Weiwei was a little tired and couldn't sit still, but he was very well-behaved. He could see that something was wrong, and Chonghua seemed to be in a bad mood , just sat patiently.

Zhong Weiwei felt sorry for him, but thinking about the future, he hardened his heart and let him stay at the scene.

Finally, when it was time to close the case and pronounce the sentence, Dali Temple Minister Fan Guohua and others discussed and wrote down the sentencing results in accordance with the law, went to the throne and knelt down, held it high and presented it to Chonghua.

Li Anren took it and presented it to Chonghua, Chonghua opened it, looked at the book silently, and said nothing for a long time.

If it is as expected, it should be Wei Shi's family who copied and beheaded, and King Qi and his wife, concubine and children were given to death.

Zhong Weiwei wanted to cover Youyou's ears, but she couldn't lift her hands up, and could only hang powerlessly on her knees.

Opening a pair of black and white eyes again, he stared at Chonghua quietly. Suddenly, he turned sideways and said to Zhong Weiwei in a low voice: "Auntie Wei, do you think Father will pardon King Qi?"

Zhong Weiwei shook his head: "No, what he committed was a major crime of punishing the nine clans. It's good not to implicate more people."

And thoughtful again.

Chonghua nodded slightly, Li Anren handed over a tube of ivory pen, the tip of the pen was as red as cinnabar blood, Chonghua picked up the pen, crossed the booklet forcefully, and threw the pen and booklet to the ground.

This is what it means to execute on the spot.

Fan Guohua picked up the notebook and pronounced the sentence coldly and calmly.

The content on the booklet is as simple and clean as Chonghua's actions. Taishi Wei and King Qi were abolished as commoners, both of whom were punished by chariots and never implicated the nine clans or even the third clan. All males and female relatives under the age of ten were sold as official slaves; Princess Qi, concubines of the Prince of Qi, and males over ten years old were given to death, and the rest were deposed as ordinary people, and they were sent to the bitter cold and remote places in the northwest.

Everyone present was very silent, as if it was expected, but it also seemed to be unexpected.

According to the normal situation, when such a brother-in-law fight occurs, the victor will always wipe away his tears and recall the sweet past, complain about the pain and grievance of being betrayed by his relatives, and express the various struggles he had to do.

But Chonghua didn't do anything, he simply drew a cross, which decided the life and death of many people and brought this matter to an end.

Grand Master Wei collapsed on the ground like a puddle of mud, because he knew that begging for mercy was useless, so he didn't say a word, not even begging for mercy for his children.

When he was dragged down, there was a puddle of water stains with an unpleasant smell on the place where he knelt.

Compared with Taishi Wei, Dongfang Pingye's attitude is very strange.

Before the verdict was pronounced, he had been crying miserably, expressing his grievance and injustice, but after the verdict was pronounced, he calmed down instead.

He knelt quietly on the spot, looked directly at Chonghua, and said loudly, "I have something to ask you!"

Someone dragged him, he struggled hard, and said angrily: "Dongfang Chonghua! Why don't you let me speak? Are you guilty? What are you afraid of? Let me ask you, where is Aunt?"

I also knew that he couldn't say anything nice, Chonghua didn't intend to talk to him, Fan Guohua gave him a wink, and someone immediately blocked his mouth.

Pingye was struggling crazily, his eyes were filled with resentment and despair, and two lines of hot tears flowed down his cheeks, looking pitiful and pathetic.

Zhong Weiwei saw that the knuckles of Chonghua's hand on the armrest were white, his lips were tightly pressed, his eyes were looking straight ahead, but his expression was indifferent.

A sweaty little hand reached out and held her hand tightly, and his face turned pale, as if he couldn't believe that Chonghua would really order to kill his own brother.

Zhong Weiwei held Youyou's hand to express comfort, but her expression did not fluctuate at all - no matter what others think or look at, she should always stand by Chonghua's side without any suspicion or hesitation, so that he so you won't be alone.

The onlookers in front of the tea fighting platform were driven away, five carriages were parked in five different directions, Grand Master Wei and King Qi were dragged to the spot, someone shouted excitedly, countless rotten vegetable leaves, Stones and rotten eggs rained down on these two people.

Chonghua turned back suddenly, looked at Zhong Weiwei and said in a low voice, "You should go back first with Youyou."

Even if he wasn't pregnant, he didn't want her to see such a bloody scene, let alone if he was pregnant, he should pay more attention.
