Shuntian Fuyin thought that the Qi family had just committed a minor murder case of "over-defense", but after careful investigation, he found that it was not what he imagined at all.
The deceased was not an ordinary thief at the level of a cat or a dog, but the current prince-in-law of the Great Feng Dynasty - Wei Zeng.
It almost goes without saying that his death will inevitably trigger an investigation within the royal family.
Actually, there is nothing to check.
The second wife of the Qi family, Yin Tao, has already confessed to the manslaughter. The only thing left is to determine the nature of the case.
Qualitative?
Yes!
To put it bluntly, is this case really a so-called manslaughter? If so, what was Wei Zeng’s motive for the theft?
However, in Shuntian Fuyin's view, the above issues are no longer important.
What he is worried about is that both parties are powerful people, and no matter who he offends, he cannot pay for it.
You see, standing behind Wei Zeng are the royal family members, and standing behind Yin Tao are Qi Yu and Yin Jun. There is no weakling in the two families.
Especially Nanyang, he is a ruthless guy who beats Franji to pieces, so he won't provoke him if he can.
In other words, for people like them, it's okay not to seek relationships, but don't be tit-for-tat with them.
Shoot the outcropping bird with a gun!
Shuntian Fuyin thought about it and immediately decided not to take advantage of him.
If you can't handle it yourself, wouldn't it be better to submit the case directly to His Majesty's Holy Judgment?
In this way, not only will the relationship be cleared, but neither party will be offended.
Well! That’s it!
So, should the Qi Yin family who killed someone be taken into custody?
He felt that it was better to push this matter to the emperor, so that he would not have to bear any responsibility.
As for what your Majesty will do, that is none of your business.
After preparing the manuscript, he directly wrote the memorial and reported the matter to the Holy Emperor. The main idea was: Your Majesty, you can decide for yourself whether this matter is right or wrong.
When the emperor saw that he had kicked the ball to him, his displeasure immediately broke to pieces.
Isn't this forcing myself to play bad guy?
You son of a bitch, you are so ignorant!
However, nausea is still nausea, and what needs to be done must be done.
You know, there is a human life case now. If you can't come up with an explanation that can convince the public, the people in the clan will definitely insist on it.
Not only them, but also the civil service group will take the opportunity to follow suit.
This is really true.
The emperor had just put down the file when he saw Zongzheng Li Zuoyi leading a group of clan members running over to put pressure on him.
"Your Majesty, Wei Zeng is a royal relative of our Li family. He has a distinguished position and a well-off family. How could someone like him come to steal from the entire family? I think there must be something fishy in this!"
"Yes, yes, I hope your majesty will take notice!"
The emperor didn't say anything, and just rolled his eyes in return, seemingly saying: I'm not a fool, how could I not have thought of this?
The main reason why I didn't say anything clearly was because I didn't want to tear apart the feelings between the parties involved.
You must know that at some times, it is wiser to be confused than to understand. If everything is taken too seriously, it will be difficult to deal with it.
The emperor's countermeasures were not complicated at all. The emperor turned a blind eye to the gourd case and passed it over in a confused way. It was considered a success.
Therefore, he pretended to be confused and said: "What you dear friends said is not unreasonable. However, they are all based on personal subjective consciousness and cannot be based on reason. Regarding this case, I will base it on the facts.
Take the law as the criterion and investigate and handle the matter realistically."
The tone of these words was obviously perfunctory.
The ministers were not short of words, they just took a brief look and figured out the meaning behind the words.
His Majesty's words are obviously protecting the Qi Yin family!
Unfair!
We must remonstrate vigorously in order to bring order to the chaos.
Under the unanimous encouragement of everyone, Li Zuoyi had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "Your Majesty's idea is certainly good, but there are some small oversights. Legally speaking, the defendant and plaintiff should be under control. In my opinion, can you first
The Qi Yin family will be temporarily imprisoned until the case is concluded, and then..."
Before he could finish his words, the emperor interrupted directly: "To imprison a woman for no reason is really detrimental to my reputation, so it is not advisable!"
Not advisable?
Li Zuoyi immediately retorted after hearing this: "This woman has confessed to the murder, how can she say it was without reason?"
Um?
Do you still dare to question me?
After he was so aroused, the emperor's stubborn temper immediately arose, and he said angrily: "How can Zong Zheng take a quote out of context? It is clearly written in this file that the Qi Yin family confessed to the incident of 'accidental killing'. How did it get to you?"
Did you just erase the prerequisite of accidentally killing someone by accident?"
Li Zuoyi did not show weakness and retorted again: "Your Majesty, manslaughter is also homicide. Since the classification is clear, why can't he be imprisoned?"
"I asked, should I judge this case? Or should you judge this case?"
"Ah! Your Majesty, please don't misunderstand me. We have absolutely no selfish motives. What we say is just for admonishment!"
"Mingjian? From what you said, do you think that I am a confused person?"
"Wei Chen doesn't dare!"
"snort……"
As they kept arguing, the smell of gunpowder became stronger.
The emperor's imposing manner was overwhelming, and he was able to defeat many with one force, but he did not lose the slightest bit.
However, the ministers argued hard and discussed matters with each other, and showed no signs of being discouraged.
However, because the emperor's views were not so reasonable, his words were quickly exploited by his ministers, and then the group attacked him.
Well……
The emperor felt that this matter seemed a bit difficult to handle.
Could it be that we really want to imprison the Qi Yin family?
If that were the case, not only would he directly offend Qi Yu, but he would also offend Yin Jun and Aiqing's face. Is it worth doing this for a consort who should have died long ago?
not worth it!
But in reality, it’s not worth it and there is no other way!
Because the emperor has been silenced by the sharp-tongued ministers, and if he persists, he will only end up with an irreconcilable result.
Alas, Qi Yu's beloved concubine, you must suffer some injustice!
Just when the emperor was about to make a concession, he suddenly saw San Dezi trotting over to report, "Your Majesty, there is an urgent military intelligence document from the Donghai Navy."
What?
Any military information?
Upon hearing this, everyone including the emperor and Li Zuoyi shut their mouths and immediately stopped arguing.
Everything is small, but military aircraft are the largest. There is no doubt about this.
"Bring it quickly and let me see it with my own eyes!"
"Here!"
Upon hearing this, San Dezi quickly raised his hands, then bowed his waist and stepped aside.
The emperor spread out the memorial and read it carefully, his face full of solemnity.
After a long time...
He suddenly smiled happily and said haha: "That's great! The Fuso Army has actually retreated! In this way, I will have no worries in the East China Sea!"
When Li Zuoyi and others heard this, they hurriedly said congratulations: "Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty! God bless you!"
However, after laughing, the emperor suddenly asked: "Do you know why Fusang's army retreated without attacking?"
