Chapter 125: Wang Ji Pleads Guilty
Wang Ji sat down dejectedly and asked in a low mood: "Can I trust your promise?"
Liu Heng spread his hands and said: "I know that I can't guarantee anything I say now, and you won't believe it. However, you can think about it, this matter is something that I have to deal with. I and you
Having said so much is enough to show my sincerity. You can weigh the pros and cons by yourself."
Wang Ji thought for a moment and then replied: "Okay, on behalf of the king, I plead guilty. Please also keep your promise and protect my wife, children, and children throughout my life."
Hearing Wang Ji's promise, Liu Heng couldn't stop smiling. He clapped his hands and said, "Wang County Cheng, this is a wise move. Don't worry, I will keep my promise."
Then, he said to Lao Niu: "Are they back, steward?"
Lao Niu replied: "Already waiting at the door, Your Highness."
Liu Heng said: "Thank you for your hard work, housekeeper, calm down. Let them come in."
The old cow says hello.
After a while, a group of people came to Liu Heng with evidence of Wang Ji's crime.
Liu Heng smiled and asked: "Have you found any evidence?"
The county lieutenant was the first to answer with his hands raised: "As for the prince, I have not found any irrefutable evidence that the guilty minister Wang Ji is chasing you, but..."
Liu Heng pretended to be curious and asked: "But what? The county captain might as well say it straight, I have a big heart and can stand it."
The county captain paused and said, "I found other evidence of guilt in the guilty minister's house."
"Oh?" Liu Heng implemented the constant performance rules and continued to pretend to be curious: "Other evidence of guilt? What evidence of guilt?"
The county lieutenant replied: "I found that the guilty minister Wang Ji was not in compliance with the rules and committed the crime of transgression."
After saying that, he asked his subordinates at the back to bring the evidence forward and hand it to Lao Niu.
And this evidence is a set of bright yellow clothes and many green clothes.
Liu Heng took the evidence and stroked the clothes and clothes with his hands. He made a gesture and said: "Wang County Cheng, you are quite good at playing."
Wang Ji still had a livid face and refused to answer.
Liu Heng was not surprised, and then asked: "Wang County Cheng, do you know the crime?"
Everyone thought that Wang Ji was still the same as before, stubbornly refusing to answer and refusing to admit guilt. However, this time, Wang Ji acted as if he had slapped everyone in a big showdown, and he actually opened his mouth to answer.
Wang Ji's face was full of dissatisfaction, but he still answered: "The guilty minister Wang Ji knows the crime." Although he said he knew the crime, he did not stand up and was not sincere or fearful. Typical of "wanting to incriminate someone."
The performance of "There is no need to worry".
Of course, Liu Heng wouldn't care about these details, as long as Wang Ji confessed.
So, Liu Heng told Lao Niu: "Steward, could you please make another trip and send a message to the capital? Just say that you discovered that Wang Ji committed the crime of transgression."
Lao Niu said hello. After saying that, he left the hall.
Liu Heng looked at everyone with a smile and said: "Thank you for your hard work. You have been running all morning. You might as well sit down and have a rest and drink tea to quench your thirst. After a while, I will be the host for lunch. Firstly, because I
I was angry before, wrongly blaming you, and apologize to you; secondly, I feel sorry for you all and have been running around all morning, so I will reward you; thirdly, you are all heroes of this place, and I want to get close to you."
Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, not knowing how to answer. So, they turned their attention to the pillars among them - Magistrate Sun and the county captain.
The county lieutenant and Magistrate Sun looked at each other and found that Magistrate Sun had no intention of stepping forward to answer. It was probably because of the legendary saying of 'no sorrow is greater than the death of the heart'.
Therefore, the county captain took a step forward, held up his hands, and replied respectfully: "On behalf of the prince, you are trying to offend the ministers. The ministers are guilty of not knowing people well and making supervision unfavorable. However, on behalf of the prince, you are magnanimous, and you are not willing to do so."
I don’t care about my fault, so how can I invite you to invite me? It should be me who invites you, so as to calm your worries. Why don’t you let me host lunch..."
Liu Heng waved his hand and stopped the county lieutenant's words. With a smile on his face, he said as if caught in the spring breeze: "County lieutenant, one code must be the same. Although you have made small mistakes in this matter, you can't cover up the shortcomings. You have actively made up for it.
In the end, you prevented the situation from getting worse and proved my innocence. At this point, you have made a great contribution. So, I’ll treat you to this meal, so don’t argue with me.”
The county lieutenant looked at each other and everyone behind him, and exchanged opinions with his eyes. He replied: "Then I'd rather be respectful than obey my orders."
Liu Heng grinned and said boldly: "That's right, a real man. It's just a meal. Why are you so coquettish?"
Everyone smiled and began to find a place to sit down and rest. Only Magistrate Sun looked calm and didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.
…
After two sticks of incense passed, the old cow walked back slowly.
After he entered the hall, he found that Liu Heng, regardless of his identity, was sitting down below, arming himself with an unknown person, chatting and joking there.
Just listen to Liu Heng say: "I drink well, what good wine do you have in Jingyu County?"
An unknown minister or official replied: "Your Majesty, Jingyu County is a small county. It is located in a remote area. Usually, there are few caravans coming and there is not much good wine. The most famous one is called 'Kang Dong'.
"Feng'. This wine, as its name suggests, is very strong and the taste is not very good. However, it is a necessary medicine for us in winter."
Liu Heng said: "Then from what you say, you guys are not having a very good time in winter."
The minister or official said: "Actually, it's not bad. After all, winters in the north are like this. But the winters in the Northeast are particularly bad. Drinking some strong wine will help to resist the cold."
Liu Heng nodded. Then, he raised his eyebrows and asked with excitement: "Is there a place in Jingyu County that cultivates sentiments? You are a man, you understand."
After listening to Liu Heng's question, the little minister replied with a look that was almost vulgar: "Yes, but I don't know whether the prince likes to cultivate his sentiments in literature or martial arts?"
Liu Heng immediately said: "Let's talk about it. If possible, I would like to improve my literary quality and improve my martial arts."
The young minister cupped his hand and complimented: "Your Majesty is worthy of being a prince, a proud son of heaven. He is strict with himself at all times and never forgets to cultivate knowledge and martial arts. I admire him."
When Liu Heng heard the compliment, he smiled happily and pretended to be humble and said: "No, I think you are the same person."
The little minister looked around to make sure no one was eavesdropping, and whispered in Liu Heng's ear: "I know two places..."
