Sang Jingyu and Luo Li were startled when they heard this. If Xu Kai used the law to argue the matter, this matter would be really difficult to handle.
One was just a gangster who made fun of him, while the other was a murderer in public. Even if he received the same punishment, Li Xuan would still suffer a big loss.
But what Xu Kai said was very reasonable, and it was impossible to refute it for a while.
The little emperor's eyes lit up: "Haha, this is a good idea, then we must act according to the law! Xu Kai, if you molest these two girls, go to the prison and stay there. When will you accept the punishment and get out again!"
As for you..." The little emperor pointed ferociously at Li Xuan: "You should have heard of the law of murder for life, right?
It’s a pity, you can’t escape death no matter what!”
"Yeah?"
A look of disdain appeared on Li Xuan's face, "I remember that there is a law in the Yunteng Empire. No matter what crime it is, you can use meritorious service to compensate for it. Am I remembering it correctly?"
Everyone looked at each other and saw that they were all nobles who were obsessed with pleasure and knew only a little about the laws of the empire.
However, someone raised his hand and said, "Yes, there is this law.
Article 991 of the Imperial Code states that all crimes other than treason and regicide can be paid for with meritorious deeds!"
"Who are you?"
The little emperor looked over.
The man bowed slightly and said, "I am a minor official in the Department of Law."
It turns out that he is a professional, no wonder he is so familiar with Imperial Law.
The little emperor snorted coldly and said: "Even if there is this law, what can it do?
What contribution have you made to the empire? Let me tell you and see if it can atone for the serious sin of murder."
Li Xuan smiled faintly, but did not speak immediately. Instead, he looked at Xu Kai and the others and nodded one by one.
"One, two, three, four, five, six...hehe, counting the one we just killed, there are exactly seven."
Li Xuan showed a smile.
"What is he doing?"
Everyone was puzzled.
"Are you stalling for time?
How old is he and what contribution can he make to the empire? Besides, murder is a serious crime and must be compensated with first-class merit.
I think this kid must be thinking of some way to escape!"
There was a lot of discussion among the crowd, and they all felt that Li Xuan would be punished with death this time.
But Li Xuan glanced at the crowd and said calmly: "Your Highness, my merits, it seems not good for me to talk about them myself. Why don't you talk about them for me?"
Among the crowd, Xia Ruixue, whose face was ashen and had been wondering whether he should stand up or not, was startled and sighed helplessly in his heart.
"Let me tell you!"
Xia Ruixue separated from the crowd and walked between Li Xuan and the emperor.
"Your Highness the Princess!"
There was a commotion in the crowd.
"Auntie!"
When the little emperor saw Xia Ruixue, his eyes lit up.
"Your Majesty..." Xia Ruixue bowed slightly to the little emperor.
The little nephew she had watched grow up was no longer the little kid who didn't understand anything when he first came to the throne. He was already a teenager. However, his stubborn and unruly character also gave her a lot of headaches.
Does the empire really have a future in the hands of such a young man?
Sometimes Xia Ruixue also suffers from this problem.
But even if he is being naughty, he is still his nephew and the legitimate heir to this empire.
Does Xia Ruixue have other choices?
Just like today, Xia Ruixue should have stood up earlier, but Xia Ruixue couldn't choose her side.
Knowing that Li Xuan was right, but in the face of so many people to let the emperor go to Taiwan, Xia Ruixue was still a little uneasy.
At this moment, Xia Ruixue felt a gaze. When she looked at it, she saw Li Xuan's deep look, and the look in her eyes was extremely complicated.
Xia Ruixue only distinguishes one look, that is, disappointment.
Her heart trembled slightly, knowing that if she doesn't do anything, maybe she will always lose Li Xuan's friendship forever! As soon as Xia Ruixue appeared, many smart people felt wrong.
The special identity of this empire princess made people have to be afraid of her.
Of course, the princess is fine.
The princess of the Yunteng Empire has eight hundred princesses in the history, and no princess has done something great.
As for the identity of the officers of the six doors, it is nothing. Although most of these nobles present are mixed people who eat and wait, their status in the government or military is much higher than Xia Ruixue.
What is really scary is not the princess or the officer, but the identity of the sister of the queen mother today! The Yunteng Empire is nominal emperor. In fact, the regent king is actually the queen mother.
This is the consensus of each Yunteng person who arrives at the official and goes to the people.
The emperor is too young and wants to have a pro -government for at least five or six years.
Although the power of the regent is great, the name is unknown, at most it is just a toil.
Only the queen mother, the name is justified, the power is huge, the emperor and the regent king both listen to her.
This woman is the Yunteng Empire's words and Jiuding, saying that the real power of power! And Xia Ruixue is the queen mother's sister and the person she trusts most! This identity is afraid!
Xia Ruixue, even when the little emperor just saw Xia Ruixue's eyes lighted up, then showed a timid expression.
At this time, the little emperor looked like a normal teenager, not an unscrupulous faint monarch.
"Auntie, why are you here?"
The little emperor looked at Li Xuan in doubt and looked at Xia Ruixue again, and his expression seemed a bit anxious.
Xia Ruixue said faintly: "Your Majesty, I'm here to help Li Xuan count the credit."
"Cultivation?"
The little emperor was stunned, and his eyes looked even more.
Everyone was uproar. It turned out that Li Xuan looked at the younger, and it was really contributed! I do n’t know what contribution is, is it enough to offset the crime of killing?
Xia Ruixue sighed in his heart and said, "I encountered a assassination in Fenglin City last year. Her Majesty should know this?"
"ah?"
There was a surprise in the crowd.
"Who dares to assassinate Princess Xia Ruixue?"
"There is such a thing. No wonder I listen to people saying that the eastern province is a wild place. Even the princess dares to stab, boldly!"
The little emperor also said with a gloomy face: "Auntie, of course, I know this, all the bastards are damn!"
Xia Ruixue said: "At that time, Li Xuan saved me.
According to the law of the Empire, saving the life of the royal family can count the merits. "
When he heard Xia Ruixue said like this, the little emperor was surprised, and he looked at Li Xuan a little incredible.
Not just the little emperor, everyone was also shocked. Look at me, I look at you, I don't believe it.
The scene of Li Xuanfang set fire and burned the dead guards. Many people witnessed that although horrible, the strength that can be revealed is not too strong.
And judging from the fluctuations of spiritual power in Li Xuan, he is at most a foundation-building monk. Can he save Xia Ruixue?
Although many people don't believe it, Xia Ruixue said so, who dares to question it?
