Royal daughter-in-law

Chapter 614 Hearing (3)
His face was flushed, he turned to face the woman, bowed his head and lowered his head, gnashing his teeth: "Princess Qin, what orders do you have?"

Are you asking yourself to apologize?After all, he really insulted her just now.A woman's heart is as small as the eye of a needle, she must take revenge, and now that King Qin is present, how can she not take the opportunity to vent her hatred?

It's nothing to condescend to the prince, but what kind of dignity is it to ask yourself to humiliate a woman?Originally, today is enough to lose face, if she really asks herself to bow her head and admit her mistake, at worst, she will go home as an official!
Tan Langzhong raised his eyes, but was startled. Seeing himself saluting, she actually stood up from the chair, gave a slight blessing, and returned the salute to herself.

"Princess——" Tan Langzhong was shocked, and saw her standing up straight, with a soft tone: "The imperial court is big, and there are inevitably moths. Some ugly things in the past may have chilled the adults, so that they are wary of me. Others I can't control it, I just want to tell my lord that although Xu Muzhen is my cousin, he can be tried as he pleases. It is his responsibility, but if there is something hidden in it, he will not be sentenced to death, and I will definitely fight for him. Rights and interests." After finishing speaking, he took the case files handed over by Shi Yaoan, sat back, and looked through them one by one.

Tan Langzhong didn't speak for a long time, his face blushed and slowly receded, and his facial muscles trembled: "It's the lower official who misunderstood the princess and disrespected the princess. Fortunately, the princess didn't blame the lower official, and even explained to the lower official!"

Seeing that the old cowhide finally changed his mind in early summer, he was relieved. Seeing that the time was tense, Yun Wanqin was reading the case file and had no time to talk, so she said on behalf of the empress, "Okay, Mr. Tan, let's go down first."

Tan Langzhong felt a little guilty when he saw Princess Qin buried the first case, and couldn't help reminding: "It's not that the lower officials said something frustrating, but the young master was arrested on the spot, and this case is about to hit the crackdown period. National mourning, all serious cases in the city must be severely punished, life imprisonment will be changed to beheaded by Qiuhou, and beheaded by autumnal beheaded will be changed to be executed by death, I am afraid that Xu Shao..."

Yu Wenping?It's okay for the prime minister to replace the emperor and go to the Ministry of Punishment to emphasize the holy will, but...

Yun Wanqin raised her head, and said suddenly: "When did you say that?"

Tan Langzhong reported the truth: "Speaking of which, not long after the young master's incident this afternoon, Yu Xiang sent someone to the Ministry of Criminal Justice. He said this to the subordinate officials and emphasized that there is no distinction between powerful and powerful. If serious cases are encountered, they must be severely punished." "If there are all the witnesses and material evidence, let alone leave the case overnight, if it is found that there is any mercy on the person with a special status, he will definitely be convicted by the Ministry of Punishment. It is precisely after listening to this order that the lower official has just drawn up with Li Shilang, who is in charge of the court. Well, the judgment will be made tomorrow, and I dare not delay too much, and I dare not ask Xu Shao's father and the princess to visit the prison, for fear of causing trouble."

Yun Wanqin glanced at the hon.

Xiahou Shiting narrowed his eyes slightly, thoughtful.

It turned out that it was Yu Wenping who wanted to order the case to be judged immediately. No one else was looking for him, but he happened to find the notoriously stubborn Tan Langzhong from the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Naturally, he wanted to end the case quickly.

Tan Langzhong retreated, Shi Yaoan walked over, and bent down: "Third Master, Yu Xiang is clearly taking the opportunity to retaliate."

Yu Rouzhuang should be the candidate for the concubine that was initially recognized by the royal family.

When he rejected Yu Wenping's overtures, and Yun Wanqin replaced his daughter as the princess, how could Yu Wenping not have the slightest hatred for the two of them?
Xiahou Shiting was not surprised either, he didn't say anything, he glanced down and saw that she was reading the file seriously, without wasting time, he asked his attendants to take out the memorial and the pond newspaper for review.

In the courtroom, the tallow candle was burning high, and the two went up and down, each immersed in their affairs, and time slipped away quietly.

At dawn, the dawn is in bud, and it is the darkest time in the night. The candles in the hall have been burned out, and it is dark.

Shi Yao'an and Chu Xia got a signal to rest on the simple bunk next to them. They were young and slept soundly as soon as they lay down.

When he looked up, he saw that she was already lying on the file, falling asleep.

He went down the steps, put the cloak on her body, felt her squirm slightly, took advantage of the darkness of the courtroom, bent down, and leaned close to her ear: "Don't worry, this king will definitely not let your cousin have trouble."

That night she confessed her heart and made him understand that the closest family member in her heart is her biological mother who has passed away, and Xu Muzhen is from her uncle's family, and she must be the one she desperately wants to protect.

Just when he was about to get up, he felt her hold him back, and only heard the voice: "The third master's status is embarrassing, and the final trial will be tomorrow, as long as he can accompany me, don't worry about the rest."

He frowned: "This king will--"

"Don't interfere. If the third master speaks for my cousin, it might be counterproductive." She reiterated, her tone suddenly raised, "It is enough for the third master to help me get here."

In the darkness, he saw her two crystal clear eyes, which were extremely determined, and couldn't help being shocked, help?
Just like what happened to her father last time, she always treats herself as an outsider.

He didn't know why, but he felt that there seemed to be an invisible gulf between her and him when important things happened. She always deliberately avoided it, and didn't accept his own good with peace of mind.

"Help you?" He didn't know how to correct her, "Shouldn't it?"

She understood what he meant, maybe it was because she always subconsciously felt that he might be the emperor in the future, so she subconsciously opened the distance.

Just like a subject treats a ruler, a son treats his father, and a student treats a teacher, no matter how close the relationship is, there is always awe, and it is not good to be too unreasonable.

The closer she got to the peak of his position, the stronger her feeling was.

Seeing that she was silent, he didn't care that this is the strict court that handles the case. He leaned over, put his arms around her waist, and rubbed her in his arms. His voice was low and deep, but also rare frivolous evil: "Is it because the house has not been consummated, so I just want to marry you?" Always make you so polite to this king?"

Just as she was talking, there was a sound at the door, it was the sound of the yamen patrolling, and she quickly pulled her hand.

He let her go for now.

The sun was rising, and the red light was shining through the clouds. Outside the yamen, the footsteps of Yingmao officials could be heard. Ye Shangshu arranged for the mother-in-law to prepare hot water and bring in a copper basin. The two of them simply washed up.

After the hour passed, Li Shilang, who was in charge of the final judgment, entered the courtroom. After saying hello to King Qin, he took the seat of honor and knocked on the gavel: "Bring the prisoner to court!"

Yun Wanqin was sitting on one side of the courtroom, and saw the yamen guards bring Xu Muzhen to prison.

Xu Muzhen was surprised when he saw his cousin and King Qin were there, but he was not surprised. At this moment, an adjutant from the Ministry of Criminal Justice read the case aside, and then called the criminal examiner and witnesses for the autopsy to report the situation.

The witnesses were the tortoise and the prostitute on Wan Chunhua's boat, and they recounted the situation yesterday, from Xu Muzhen's private room and staying alone with the bustard in the room, until after a scream, everyone rushed in and found the old bust's dead body in the room .

Then, the official held the wooden tray and brought up the evidence, which was the fruit-cutting knife in the box that stabbed the bustard to death.
