The ace magician becomes a princess

Chapter 240
Including those water ghosts who made troubles underwater, those who changed the packaging in the middle, those who were responsible for escorting the goods, those who sold them, and those who were responsible for laundering silver, all of them have been arrested and brought to justice. "

"Your Majesty, the crown prince is telling the truth! Your Majesty, please listen to my concubine..."

The queen cried and climbed up to Beiming Shenguang, and said with snot and tears: "The prince has never received a tael of silver. This salt case was not instigated by the prince at all. Think about it, the prince lives in the house all year round." Lu, where would you think of such a bad idea?

This... This was all thought up by Ling Zhongqing in order to curry favor with the prince.But after he gave Cao Huwei the first sum of money, Cao Huwei disappeared and has not been found so far.

It is not known whether he fled with the money or was intercepted halfway and killed his concubine.Seeing that he failed to curry favor with the crown prince the first time, Ling Zhongqing did another trick after King Xuan left Jizhou.

Your majesty, you can judge the case fairly every time. This case really has nothing to do with the crown prince, and the crown prince really didn't take any money from Ling Zhongqing!If you don't believe me...you can search the prince's mansion and the palace of the concubines if you don't believe me. "

"Mother, if you say this now, how will father answer you? Who would put such a large sum of money in the prince's mansion or the queen's bedroom?
Since you dare to say such a thing, it means that this money has been hidden by you long ago, how can we find it?But this case has already been stolen, and the truth has come to light. It is not something you can solve by just putting it on someone else.Everything has to be decided by the emperor. "

"Depose Beimingqi from the position of Crown Prince, and temporarily imprison the Crown Prince's Mansion. The Ministry of Criminal Justice will try the case... Do whatever you want!"

After finishing speaking, Beiming Shenguang stood up dejectedly, and left the Hall of Righteousness alone.The rest of the people in the Hall of Righteousness were silent for a long time, and there was nothing more to say.

Ten days later, the case was concluded and the imperial decree issued.

Prince Bei Mingqi instigated his subordinates to misappropriate disaster relief funds from the Jizhou Grand Canal. In order to make up for the shortfall, he connived at his subordinates to create a salt case, making the people in the upper reaches of the canal miserable.His behavior is not worthy of being a prince.He specially dismissed the status of Prince Qi of Beiming, sent him to the northern grasslands, and could not return to Beijing forever.

Ling Zhongqing, the magistrate of Jizhou, embezzled the disaster relief funds of the Jizhou Grand Canal first, and then planned and initiated the salt case.

All of Ling Zhongqing's property was confiscated.His family members, male, were sent to serve as slaves, and female, as military prostitutes.

In addition, Ling Zhongqing's eldest son, Ling Xiye, and second daughter, Ling Qingyue, have completely severed ties with the Ling family and changed their surname to Jiang because they had agreed with the emperor before, so they are not included in the category of Ling Zhongqing's children.

After the decree is issued, it will be executed immediately.

On this day, the people in the upper reaches of Jizhou were boiling.It turns out that they have not been able to eat salt for so many months. It is not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster.

When Ling Zhongqing paraded through the Meridian Gate, the angry people almost blocked the street.Even the people from the cities near the capital came here on a special trip.

With so many people cheering, let alone parading through the streets, the prison car was so blocked that it couldn't move as soon as it left the Meridian Gate.

The Ministry of Punishment originally sent 400 guards to maintain order at the scene, but how could these 400 guards stop the angry crowd?
At the beginning, the common people threw rotten vegetable leaves and eggs into the car very politely, spit, and threw pots of shit.

Later, more and more emotional, more and more angry people
