After the first fool

Chapter 132 Officials protect each other?

Mo Xiaoran narrowed her eyes slightly, a cold light flashed in her eyes, how could she not see the crooked intestines in this official's belly?Immediately, she lifted her robe to block Zi Yan's face, her sharp gaze, like a knife, pierced straight at the minister: "I am her lawyer."

"Are you a lawyer?" The official was stunned. Looking left and right, he couldn't tell that this person was a lawyer, but he looked like a son of an official. Could it be a fake?He straightened his back a little, and said righteously: "Do you know what is the crime of pretending to be a lawyer?"

"If you don't believe me, you can go to the Ministry of Households and check Dongyao's 33-year imperial examination list. My name, Mo Shaoshang, is on the imperial list!" The official couldn't make up his mind for a while, so he could only stare at her blankly, with a glimpse of the black beard under his nose, which was slightly raised and heaved up and down in the wind.

"Are you really a lawyer?" The official asked again uncertainly.

"It's as if it's fake." Mo Xiaoran smiled proudly, and opened the folding fan with a snap, she was graceful, and the black hair on her temples rose and fell slowly in the breeze, adding a bit of suaveness to her.

"Come here." The official was dubious, and he called out loudly, and immediately a guard came out, waiting for his order: "Go to the household department immediately, ask the servant of the household department for the list of imperial examinations for 33 years, and check to see if there is any Mr. Still this person."

"Yes." The guard immediately took the order, hurried down the stone steps, led a fast horse, and rushed to the palace.

There was a smile in Mo Xiaoran's eyes, let's check it, she has already revised the records of the household department, if you want to check it, as long as you don't look through the test papers from that year, her position as a lawyer is guaranteed!
"You come in with me." The official waved his hand, it's not a problem to stand here all the time.

Xiaozhu immediately helped Ziyan up, followed the minister, and entered the Dali Temple. Inside the temple was a hall with the words "upright and bright", and on both sides were the Yamen of Dali Temple, which was also the place where cases were opened. The official directly cited Following them into the back courtyard, Ziyan, Qingfeng, Xiao Zhu, and Xuanyuan Wushang were arranged to rest in the guest room, while he himself invited Mo Xiaoran to the courtyard to talk.

Mo Xiaoran followed the officials and stood under a big tree in the courtyard. The fallen leaves rustled and the guards were waved away by him.

"What a big deal," the official said with a friendly smile, and even changed his address, obviously to set up a relationship with Mo Xiaoran.

There was a sneer in her heart, but her face was neither humble nor overbearing, she cupped her hands and said, "What advice do you have, my lord?"

Calling her out alone, it can't be to enjoy the moon, the snow and the scenery, right?
"Hey, I don't know how many years Mo Dazhuang has been a lawyer?" The official seemed to have something to hide, and wanted to play a roundabout game.

Mo Xiaoran calculated the year and said, "It's been three years."

"How could Mo Dazhang help that woman to seek justice?" The official asked again, thinking to himself, I don't know what benefit the woman has given to get her to help, so he sued the Dali Temple, and even sued the officials of the court!
Mo Xiaoran raised her eyebrows slightly, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "I just saw that you are lonely, have a poor background, and are oppressed by local officials, so you don't feel angry for a while, so..." She hesitated to speak, But what follows, anyone with a discerning eye can understand.

Was it a second-generation ancestor who liked fighting against injustice?There was a hint of brilliance in the official's eyes, "It's better not to get involved in this case."

He said slightly reminded.

Mo Xiaoran asked suspiciously, "Why?"

"If you sue the court officials, if there is no such case, what will happen to you?" Is this considered intimidation?

Mo Xiaoran sneered in her heart. It seems that she has also been protected by officials today. She never expected that the most upright Dali Temple would do such shameful things. "Although Mo Shaoshang is only a lawyer , but I also know that there is something to do and nothing to do! That Ziyan is deeply bullied, if I, Mo Shaoshang, turn a blind eye, how can I be worthy of the name of a lawyer?" How can I be worthy of the police uniform she wore before!
The words were sonorous and forceful, with a sense of righteousness, but the official's breath was stuck in his throat, unable to get up or down.

"Even if you want to sue the local magistrate, if there is no substantive evidence, I'm afraid it will be difficult. What's more, the defendant is a local nobleman, not an official. If the defendant is not present, the case cannot be heard." The official said She was not threatened, so she immediately changed to be persuasive, hoping that Mo Xiaoran would retreat in spite of difficulties.

There was a rebellious arrogance in Mo Xiaoran's bones, she said proudly: "As long as your lord takes over the case, I can ask someone to bring that officer to the imperial city, then, can't the trial begin?"

"You!" She refused to give in, and the official gritted his teeth angrily. Seeing that Mo Xiaoran was still acting righteously, he immediately became angry and waved his sleeves: "I'm good at persuading you. You are stubborn, so you should be your own official and meddle in your own business."

After finishing speaking, he lifted his robe and turned around to leave. Mo Xiaoran stood there, looked at his angry back, and sighed fiercely. Officials protected each other. I didn't expect that even the Dali Temple in the imperial city was like this. The officials were afraid that if Zi Yan reversed the case, her colleagues would be arrested. At that time, if she offended someone, it would be difficult for her to deal with herself in the court in the future.

But just because of this, can unjust and wrong cases be turned a deaf ear to?The corner of Mo Xiaoran's mouth curled into a disdainful smile, there are too many officials like this in the world, so there are so many unjust, false and wrongly decided cases!

"This man knows how to be an official." An evil voice came from behind, with a hint of emotion and admiration, Mo Xiaoran turned around suddenly, with a cold light in her eyes: "You are supporting him What did you do just now?" Supporting officials to protect each other?
"No," Xuanyuan Wushang lazily walked up to Mo Xiaoran, leaned into her ear, and exhaled Ruolan, "I've always stood by your side." Now, this Dongyao Dali Temple wants something big. What would she do if she turned it into a trivial matter?There was a dim light in the dark brown eyes, like anticipation, like curiosity.

Mo Xiaoran glared at him angrily, turned her footsteps, moved a few steps to the side, and exited the range covered by his breath, frowning tightly, and said coldly: "I don't care which side you stand on, anyway, I'm in charge of this case."

Even if the Heavenly King Lao Tzu comes, she will reverse the case for Zi Yan!
With an upright face, she turned around and walked towards the guest room, leaving Xuanyuan Wushang behind. It was really hard for her to develop a good impression of this person. When she entered the guest room, Zi Yan immediately stood up from the chair: "Benefactor, I don’t know what the lord said?” Would you be unwilling to accept this case?
Mo Xiaoran licked the corners of her lips comfortingly at her: "Don't worry, I promised you to reverse the case for you, and I will definitely do it."

"Qingfeng," Mo Xiaoran called out.

"The servant is here." Qingfeng walked up to her with fists in his hands, waiting for her order.

"You go to the Prince Regent's Mansion." Mo Xiaoran rolled her eyes slightly, and finally said what she planned in her heart.

To the Regent's House?Qingfeng looked at Mo Xiaoran in astonishment, what was she going to do?Is it possible to let the prince put pressure on Dali Temple?But in this way, I am afraid that the news of her going out of the palace will not be kept.

However, Mo Xiaoran didn't care so much. Today, even if she tried all means, she would let the case be heard in public and return Zi Yan's innocence.

"Go." Mo Xiaoran waved her hand, signaling Qingfeng to go and come back quickly. With the support of the regent, she believed that Dali Temple would never tolerate adultery. What's more, she also believed that Bai Mo was not a talkative person and would send her out. The secret of the palace is guarded to the end.

After all, she had already smelled the smell of justice and loyalty in him.

Qingfeng wanted to persuade her again, but seeing Mo Xiaoran's expression was determined, knowing that she had made up her mind, she could only nod and accept the order, but the place to go was Yanyu Building.

Bai Qingluo was sitting in the private room, watching the information sent from Lanyu Country, his brows were cold, and suddenly a cold wind blew in outside the window, his hand looking at the page suddenly paused, "What's the matter?"

"Master, the Empress is currently in Dali Temple." Qingfeng knelt on the ground in shame, "It's the slave who is incompetent, the empress insists on going her own way, and asked the slave to help cover it up. She left the palace early this morning to reverse the case for Ziyan."

Bai Qingluo's eyes sank slightly, and the inside was full of frost. He slowly raised his hand, and swung his sleeves down in the air. The breeze seemed to be hit by an oncoming boulder. It landed on the wall of the private room, and with a wow, a mouthful of blood spattered out.

"Thank you master for sparing this slave's life." After Qingfeng coughed a few times, he knelt down again. Fortunately, it was only a slap, and he thought that the master would kill him directly in his anger.

"Why didn't you report it?" Bai Qingluo's icy cold voice reached Qingfeng's ears.

He bit his lips tightly, bearing the pain of blood churning in his body, and gritted his teeth: "Your Majesty ordered the servant to keep silent."

"Why didn't you stop her?" Bai Qingluo's cold tone eased a little, and his emotions seemed to be gradually calming down.

"Your Majesty insists on going her own way. The servant tried, but failed." Qingfeng lowered his head in self-blame, not daring to look at Bai Qingluo's disappointed eyes. As a hermit guard, he had indeed failed in his duty and deserved to be punished.

"Tell me the whole thing, remember, you can't hide anything." Bai Qingluo said coldly with his five fingers clenched, his whole body chilled.

"Yes!" Qingfeng secretly heaved a sigh of relief, at least he came back with a life, so how dare he hide it now?From Mo Xiaoran asking him to go to the Ministry of Households to revise the list, to her forcing herself to send her out of the palace, to meeting Xuanyuan Wushang in the brothel, and finally arriving at Dali Temple, but was blocked by officials who wanted to ask Bai Mo to come forward to put pressure on her. Everything is made clear.

Bai Qingluo raised his brows slightly, his eyes were full of frost, he sat quietly on the chair for a long time, and then ordered in a deep voice: "Do as she says, tell Bai Mo, and don't announce the news of her leaving the palace." If it was him, if he knew about her, he would definitely help her.

"Then master, you..." Why didn't you go?Qingfeng couldn't figure it out.

"I still have something important to do, I will go there later." Bai Qingluo said coldly, "Go away."

With a light wave of his sleeves, Qingfeng stood up from the ground neatly, not daring to stay for long, jumped out of the private room, and rushed towards the Prince Regent's mansion. Di's eyes seemed to be filled with torrential waves, like a stormy sky, his breath became heavier and faster, his hands resting on the table were tightly clenched, and his knuckles were almost white.

"boom!"

The chair under him couldn't bear the internal force he released, and was shattered by the shock, sawdust flying in the air, Bai Qingluo's figure flashed, and appeared by the window, without even looking at the mess of the place, looking at it from afar In the direction of Dali Temple, "Mo Xiaoran..."

Don't let this king catch you, otherwise, this king will let you have a taste of it!

Dare to leave the palace privately, tamper with the list of the household department, is there anything in this world that you dare not do?

Bai Qingluo was so annoyed that he changed his name, and his five fingers clenched tightly on the window sill, "Why didn't you tell me?"

Could it be that in your eyes, this king is so untrustworthy?

There was a slight pain in the tip of his heart, like thousands of ants gnawing, Bai Qingluo slowly closed his eyes, and suppressed the pain in his eyes.
