The next day.

In order to avoid the long nights and dreams, the Tingwei Mansion began to speed up the interrogation of the two major criminals.

Tingwei's office, a huge main hall.

Ye Fan sat in the seat of the chief judge of the main hall.

The Tingwei Mansion had the chief rank of the Tingwei Grand Priest Ling Hong, and the deputy Tingwei Shaoqing Ye Fan, who was the deputy Tingwei Grand Priest.

Ling Hong was a royal family member, and he usually tried the case of the Tingwei Mansion.

But the king asked Ye Fan to investigate these two major cases, and the presiding officer became Ye Fan.

On both sides of the lobby of the Tingwei Mansion, there are as many as hundreds of seats, all of which are the seats for the imperial ministers.

These two huge cases involve a wide range of cases, and most of the cases must be tried in public.

All departments of the court also sent ministers to the trial.

Ling Jiaojiao also appeared in the Tingwei lobby to hear these two cases.

Ye Fan said: "Ascending the government! The case of poisoning and murdering the king, and the case of regicide in the Golden Palace, the two cases will be tried together. Bring the main culprit up!"

Soon, many criminals were suppressed to the court lieutenant's lobby.

"The case of poisoning and murdering the king is clear, with many other evidences such as physical evidence, personal evidence, confession, etc. The second prince Ling Feihui instructed his adviser Su Yang to bribe the palace maids and murder the king with poisoning under the water. Now, Ling Feihui is sentenced to death by poisoning wine and beheading Su Yang in half."

Ye Fan said lightly.

In the case of poisoning the monarch, there were few people involved, only a few people at the critical moment. The Second Prince, Su Yang and others, and perhaps others were among them.

But Ye Fan did not intend to inquire about the case in detail, and cut off the mess quickly and directly convicted and eliminated the two most critical figures.

The second prince was taken to kneel in the hall with a rebellious look on his face. When he heard Ye Fan sentenced him to death, he couldn't help but sneer, "Ye Fan, this is the first time I have seen you like this. I will be convicted without even asking! Don't you want to know the true truth of this case? Or are you afraid that I will say something?"

"The Second Prince is famous for his first life! Do you want to add something besides poisoning and regicide, and involve more people in the case? Or do you want me to go to the Second Prince's mansion and find more accomplices? I am so confident that the Second Prince is not grateful?!"

Ye Fan smiled faintly and his eyes sank.

The second prince was stunned for a long time, but he didn't speak any more.

He must be dying, but if the fox beast is made public, his reputation after death will be ruined.

The king was unwilling to speak if he died, so why would he be willing to speak like this?

Ye Fan's threat was to shut up.

If he angered the king, he would be angry and asked Ye Fan to copy the Second Prince's Mansion to the sky, which would make him shudder, which was something he would never want to see.

"I plead guilty! I instructed Su Yang to do the poisoning incident and it has nothing to do with others!"

The second prince was completely helpless and softened.

"Since the second prince pleads guilty, there is nothing to say, the case of poisoning the monarch will be closed. Canglan Guohai's arrest document is also issued to arrest Su Yang who has escaped from prison!"

Seeing that the second prince pleaded guilty, Ye Fan directly concluded the case.

All the ministers and officials in the lobby of the Tingwei were shocked.

This kind of huge case that poisons the king, every ten or eight-day interrogation time, and every detail of the case is found, it is difficult to satisfy the king.

Ye Fan tried the case very quickly. Before he finished speaking the three sentences, the rebellious second prince took the initiative to bow his head and confessed his guilt, and concluded a huge case that shocked Canglan Kingdom.

Ye Fan continued, "The next case is the case of the Queen of the Golden Palace forcing the Palace to enforce the palace and intending to kill the monarch. There are many cases involved in this case, but the public can see clearly in the Golden Palace. All those who openly support the Second Prince in the hall are serious offenders in this case!"

"Accuse the Eleventh Prince!"

"According to the trial of the Minister of War Rui Liangzhi!"

"Address the Princess of Fengwan County Qin Qing!"

"Article Li Hao."

“Article.”

Ye Fan read dozens of names in one breath. These were all in the Golden Palace and took the initiative to stand up to support the Second Prince. "The above people openly supported the Second Prince in the Golden Palace and intended to usurp the throne. This official sentenced the above royal family members involved in the case to remove their titles, all the ministers were dismissed, and were exiled to the frontier for 100 years to redeem their great sins."

Rui Liangzhi was dissatisfied and shouted loudly: "I am not convinced! The queen has done nothing for a year. Only then did I support the second prince to shoulder the responsibility of supervising the country and did not participate in forcing the palace to usurp the throne."

"Oh, the officials of the Ministry of War, seventeen generals, secretly signed a personal document loyal to the Second Prince, supporting the Second Prince to force the palace to seize the throne in the Golden Palace. Among these people, you are the leader. I need to say all the names one by one and let you confront them in court?"

Ye Fan said coldly.

He casually wrote a list of seventeen people and said to the court official who was on standby outside: "According to this list, go to the Ministry of War to arrest people! Since Lord Rui does not plead guilty, then let's argue with your subordinates."

"It's an adult!"

The Tingwei officials quickly took the list and brought a large number of imperial guards to arrest people.

"this."

Rui Liangzhi was stunned and looked dull.

The Ministry of War had seventeen important members. On the eve of the palace mutiny, they secretly signed documents and were loyal to the Second Prince.

But this matter is extremely secret and has never been made public.

Even most of them were not exposed and were not arrested. How could Ye Fan know so clearly?

The ministers and officials who were listening in the courtroom were also stunned and looked at Ye Fan with great awe.

Yesterday, the palace mutiny was just now, and today Ye Fan gave the 17 members of the rebel gang members who were deeply hidden in the Ministry of War. The efficiency of this investigation is simply horrifying.

Ye Fan looked at the prisoners, pondered for a while, and added: "Li Hao reported his escape from prison last night and was reduced to one level. He was sent to the frontier to serve as a military force for 20 years."

"Thank you, Lord Ye!"

Li Hao was surprised and fell to the ground.

He was involved in the case very deeply and thought that he would be unable to escape the death penalty. Unexpectedly, he was sentenced to exile and exile for only twenty years, which was simply a disaster.

"The previous practice was to commit a crime of corruption. The Man family was executed, but the king was tolerant and pardoned your family and only asked about the crimes of you. You are serving your sentences at the border and making meritorious service. If you commit another crime, the crime will be added to your family."

Ye Fan warned him and tried the main culprits of the two cases.

In the next month, there were a large number of other accomplices who followed the Second Prince, and many of them did not have clear evidence. As long as they were stubborn, it was extremely difficult to find evidence. It is more troublesome to convict them, and it is also very difficult to find out whether they were involved in the case.

But this is not a problem for Ye Fan.

With the power of sacrificing, he can directly find a large amount of information that others cannot see. As long as it falls on a scroll of paper and a secret letter, he can see it. Of course, it is extremely fast to check it.

Ye Fan at an unimaginable speed, he sent thousands of accomplices to a certain extent within a month, including poisoning wine, extermination, dismissal, salary reduction, distribution of border troops, etc.

Ling Hong, the Grand Secretary of the Tingwei, admired him very much, "Brother Ye, I have been the Grand Secretary of the Tingwei for more than ten years and have tried many cases of big and big. This is the first time I have seen you decide a case so quickly. If I come to try these two major cases, it will take a year to be long and a three or five years to be long, otherwise the case will not be settled. It is unimaginable to investigate the case in one month."

"Where! The king doesn't want to delay too long, so I can only quickly settle the case. These two cases can only be settled hastily. There are still many details in the case, and there is no way to investigate it in detail."

Ye Fan smiled faintly.

He knew the real reason for the case so quickly. The king could not live long and did not have so much time to investigate carefully. He settled these two major cases as soon as possible and made them public. Only then could the king feel at ease.

After these two major cases were concluded, Canglan had only two major events left in China: the palace examination and the enthronement of the prince.

He will definitely compete for the leader in the palace examination.

As for whom it is made the crown prince, it depends on what the king thinks. .

Royal Palace.

Inside the Hall of Care.

The king Ling Rui took the two major case files submitted by Ye Fan and read them carefully from beginning to end.

The case was very "clear", and he was deeply satisfied with the crimes convicted by the rebels.

The second prince Ling Feihui is a prince after all, and he gave him a cup of poisoned wine, which can be considered as leaving the whole body.

There are too many other ministers involved in the case. If they are executed, it will greatly damage Canglan's national strength. Being sent to the frontier to serve as a military force is naturally the best way to atone for his sins, but it will significantly enhance the border defense of Canglan's country.

The king couldn't help but nod in his heart.

He was not worried that these prisoners would cause trouble after being exiled to the frontier. Most of the prisoners were from aristocratic families. If they did not want to harm their families, they would have to serve their sentences honestly. Otherwise, the crime would be even higher and the family would be implicated.

Ye Fan was very wise in dealing with everyone and understood his heart deeply. The only regret was that he escaped Su Yang in the Tingwei Prison.

"Father, how do you think Ye Fan handles these two cases?"

Ling Jiaojiao asked carefully.

"It's very consistent with my wishes. Jiaoer, you have a good attitude, and the recommended talents are indeed the pillars of Canglan Country. The palace examination is about to begin, so that he can prepare for the palace examination with peace of mind! After the palace examination, I will naturally use him. His case trial is extraordinary, so let him become the Grand Secretary of the Tingwei. Ling Hong is old, so it's time to let him retreat."

The king said lightly.

Now, inside and outside the court, a large number of official positions have been vacant in the top ten county governments. It is necessary to promote a group of young Wuhou officials to come up.

"It's great. Let Ye Fan take charge of the court lieutenant. The domestic gangsters dare not act rashly!"

Ling Jiaojiao couldn't help but be overjoyed.

The Grand Priest of Tingwei was the highest judicial officer in charge of the prisons of the vassal states and was one of the nine important officials of the court.

Usually, he needs to be the leader of the palace examination and served in the court for more than ten years and was trusted by the king to be the one who can serve. Ye Fan almost reached the top in one step and became one of the nine most core officials of Canglan Kingdom.

The king couldn't help but smile when he saw Ling Jiaojiao so happy.

But he still has a headache.

Originally, he was actually very optimistic about his second son, and was preparing to die in forty or fifty years and let his second son take over the throne. Unfortunately, the second son couldn't stand it and couldn't wait to kill the throne, and was sentenced to death.

Now the third and fifth brothers are left, and they are quite capable among the princes, but they are both half a dozen.

Who should the prince choose? It gave him a headache.

"Jiao'er, what's better, your third brother or fifth brother?"

"The child dares not speak nonsense. Choosing the prince is arbitrary mind of the father! But no matter which one the father chooses, they should not force my mother and I to go desperate."
