Chapter 175: Prison Break
Snap——
The sound of the alarm caused a moment of silence in the audience.
"Two gentlemen, why don't you kneel down when you see this judge?"
Qin Han straightened his figure and glanced at the two people in the courtroom. He did not call himself the king, which proved that he was simply the chief judge today.
"Your Majesty, we are wearing official uniforms and have not yet been convicted. To kneel down in court in court would be detrimental to the dignity of our official uniforms."
The Minister of Industry maintained his own identity and did not take Qin Han seriously.
"oh?"
Qin Han raised his eyebrows, "This official robe is so obstructive, so I might as well take it off."
At this moment, he still looked lazy, but he exuded a strong and attractive aura.
Everyone present could not help but be slightly startled, and remained silent without daring to speak.
Qin Han raised his hand to grab the token on the table and put it down.
"Come here, take off the official robes of these two people and teach them how to kneel."
Hearing this, the government servants on the side stepped forward to arrest the man. He took the lead in taking off Song Qingyuan's official robe, and pushed him down to kneel on the ground.
Then he went to the Minister of Industry.
"Don't come over here! My lord, do you really have no regard for human kindness at all?"
The Minister of Industry tried to struggle, but no matter how hard he fought, he could not avoid the fate of being removed from his official robe.
Finally, the two of them, wearing only their middle coats, knelt down in the courtroom in an orderly manner, making the people outside cheer and cheer.
"I'll give you two a stick of incense to go to court."
Qin Han leaned against the desk with his face propped up again, looking like he hadn't quite woken up. It was really hard to figure out what he was thinking.
The two people in the courtroom looked at each other and began to confess the evidence of each other's crimes that they had found one by one.
But after all, they are all innocuous things. Although they are not good words, they can't sway the other party.
A stick of incense passed quickly, Han Lu at the door clenched his fists tightly, and the hatred in his eyes almost turned into a sharp blade, he flew over and stabbed Song Qingyuan, who was kneeling in the courtroom.
"Finished?"
After the stick of incense burned out, Qin Han sat up straight again and raised his eyes to look at the two of them.
The two people in the audience nodded repeatedly, "Your Majesty, we have already said what needs to be said."
Qin Han looked at the master on the side, "Have you recorded it in the notes?"
The master nodded.
"Very good, but of no use. Turn the page and memorize it again."
After saying that, he suddenly gave a slap in the face.
"Do you two know what is being tried in this court today?"
The voice that had always been gentle suddenly turned sharp, giving off a chilling sense of majesty.
Hearing this, Xin Nianyan's heart pounded, and she felt like she didn't even recognize this person.
"Your Majesty Mingjian, the case of the Song family four years ago has nothing to do with me. What a small injustice!"
The Minister of Industry was the first to cry out and kept shouting about injustice.
"Your Majesty, I am as close to my cousin as a compatriot, so how could I possibly fall for him?"
Song Qingyuan's eyes were red, it was so sincere.
"Your Majesty, please take a closer look!"
The two of them kowtowed to the ground together and shouted loudly.
Qin Han waved his hand, and the guard next to him handed him a box.
"In this way, I will make you convinced that you have lost and die in peace."
Qin Han opened the box, and as he took out the two letters in the box, the two people underneath felt frightened, feeling like they were falling into an ice cellar, and a disaster was imminent.
"This letter contains your official seals and handwriting. Do you need me to have someone read it out to you one by one?"
The Minister of Works closed his eyes and kowtowed heavily to the ground.
"Your Majesty... this minister, I was confused for a moment and made this big mistake. I hope you will see that I have worked hard for the court these years and give you a lighter sentence!"
He always thought that Song Qingyuan had stolen the evidence, so he was so confident.
Now it seems that he made things simple.
On the other side, Song Qingyuan's face was ashen, he knelt down and lowered his head without saying a word.
Qin Han opened another envelope and sneered.
"A lighter sentence?"
"Nan'an County has been suffering from constant floods for a long time. Every three years, the imperial court allocates no less than one hundred thousand taels of silver for disaster relief, but in the end, less than one thousand taels are allocated."
"The people of Nan'an County jointly report that you have enriched your own pockets, committed corruption and perverted the law, and are the main culprit of Nan'an County's consecutive floods."
"In order to verify the matter, the Nan'an County Sheriff and the original Minister of Household Affairs went to Beijing to testify, but you and Song Qingyuan framed the case. He died unjustly and his family was ruined."
"Do you admit this crime or not?"
The Minister of the Ministry of Industry finally had nothing to say, and his body softened and he fell to the ground.
The people in the viewing area outside were so excited that they pointed at the two people in the court and insulted them.
The master next to me quickly recorded it, wiping the sweat from his forehead from time to time.
After so many years as a criminal master, this is the first time that I have tried such a big case.
Two third-rank officials, on the same level as the Minister of Punishment...
Qin Han raised his hand and slapped the cliff.
They were ordered to be removed from their official positions and taken into custody in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment. They would be pushed out of the Meridian Gate and beheaded at noon tomorrow.
When being taken to death row by the government officials, the Minister of Industry kept shouting for mercy, while Song Qingyuan on the other side was as quiet as a chicken, as if he was really heartbroken and had resigned himself to his fate.
As the gavel closed, the crowd left.
The Minister of Song Dynasty, who died unjustly, and the governor of Nan'an County were all cleared of their injustice after this trial.
The chief judge issued an order to recall the two family members who were affected by the incident and were exiled.
The people at the door all clapped their hands and praised Qin Han for his ability to solve the case like a god and for his wisdom and martial prowess.
Xin Nianyan looked at Han Lu, who had red eyes next to her, and said, "Let's go, come back tomorrow and watch them ask and kill with your own eyes."
Han Lu pursed her lips and nodded, her voice choked with sobs.
"Thank you, miss..."
She finally cleared her father's grievances, but it was a pity that she couldn't kill her enemy with her own hands...
Things were a foregone conclusion, and just when everyone thought there would be no more changes, changes still occurred without warning.
That night.
It rained heavily in Beijing.
The autumn rain is extremely cold in the cold night, and the hurricane blows chill to the bones.
Xin Nianyan shivered while wrapped in a cloak, and was about to close the door and go to bed when she saw fireworks exploding in the sky.
The fireworks gathered into clouds of smoke, which were the signal fireworks of Feiyan Pavilion.
Looking in the direction, it's towards the prison of the Ministry of Punishment.
Xin Nianyan frowned and stared over there.
Soon, a figure climbed over the high wall despite the rain.
The figure was all in pitch black. There was a rumble of thunder and electric light shone through the cold night. Xin Nianyan took the opportunity to see clearly.
"Hanfeng, what's going on?"
Xin Nianyan asked him in a loud voice.
The sound of rain was loud, and Han Feng walked forward quickly and stopped at the door.
"Miss, Song Qingyuan escaped from prison!"
"He had known about today and had arranged everything outside."
"Now the man has gone outside the city. It's raining heavily tonight. If he doesn't chase him, he may run away."
The cold wind soaked his whole body, but he was not affected by it in the slightest. He raised his head and reported to her.
"Chase!"
"Since he doesn't want to die in Caishikou and someone collects his body, then let him expose his body in the wilderness and be eaten by wild beasts."
Xin Nianyan narrowed her eyes, her voice was as cold as frost,
Chapter completed!
