Mrs. Meng Er screamed even more harshly: "Just because I am her mother, she was born to me, I will bear all the consequences!"
Xiao Lingyue only felt that she could not understand the words: "The emperor committed the law and the common people. Which law does the Northern Qin stipulate that children can make mistakes on their behalf? Are you a mother more privileged than the emperor?"
Mrs. Meng Er: "I..."
Xiao Lingyue: "Last night, you and Lord Meng knelt at the gate of Prince Yi's mansion, crying and shouting that they had to see me, so I asked the guards to convey it on their behalf. The mistakes made by Meng Wanqing were all there.
The case has been handed over to Jingzhao Mansion for handling and is not under my jurisdiction.
I don't care, either.
It would be useless for you to plead with me again. Can I, a small county lord, catch Meng Wanqing out of the prison by just saying a word?"
Xiao Lingyue's words were obviously ironic.
When Mrs. Meng heard this, she blurted out and said, "Why can't you?"
Xiao Lingyue was speechless and found it funny: "What do you mean is, I have the privilege to interfere with the laws of the court?"
"That's not what I mean."
Mrs. Meng Er was also from a noble family and was not an illiterate person who could not read a big word.
She said anxiously: "The law of the court belongs to the law, but law/reason is nothing more than human kindness. This matter is related to you, and it is the case you reported. As long as you are willing to let go, Jingzhao Mansion will of course
If I will not be severely punished, then my daughter will be able to come out of prison!"
Prince: "..."
Zhan Beihan sneered: "Ha."
Xiao Lingyue felt even more speechless: "Madam Meng, I will explain to you again. According to the law of the Northern Qin Dynasty, if it is not serious and ordinary matter, the two sides reached a consensus in private, and they can indeed not report to the official and resolve it privately.
But what Meng Wanqing did was not a trivial matter.
She openly killed people in public, and deliberately murdered people in front of most of the princes of the aristocratic family and three princes!
To put it bluntly, it was she who wanted to harm me and took action in public, and she did not have any repentance afterwards.
After I escaped by chance, she even wanted to splash sewage on my head, bit me back, saying that I deliberately wanted to harm her.
That's the case.
Why did I let her go?
I did not lynch her, nor did I deliberately retaliate against her.
I just reported to the Jingzhao Prefecture in accordance with the court's laws and regulations, and asked the government to deal with this matter.
I can't do anything too much, right?
So, you and Lord Meng came to the Yi Palace overnight to plead for me. I really don’t understand. What else can I plead for? Do you have to forgive Meng Wanqing and someone who wants to kill me?"
Xiao Lingyue's voice was cold, and she said it clearly.
Mrs. Meng was speechless.
She was so anxious that she was sweating all over: "I know Wanqing had done something wrong, so I am willing to apologize for her. I can apologize to you. I am really sorry! But Wanqing is still young after all...
.She is still ignorant, so I can't blame her! It's because of my mother who didn't teach her well, so I will bear the consequences for her. County Lord Anping, please forgive her this time, I promise she will never dare to do it again.
!”
Mrs. Meng Er, who is over 40 years old, usually takes good care of herself, but she is exhausted after sleeping all night. At this moment, she looks extremely haggard, with wrinkles appearing on the corners of her red and swollen eyes, as if she has grown ten years old overnight.
She begged bitterly: "I beg you, County Lord Anping... You are also a woman of mother. Can you understand my mood? I only have Wanqing, my daughter, I
I really can't watch her suffer this kind of sin in prison... Isn't there a saying? It hurts her and hurts her mother's heart! It's all my fault that I didn't teach her well.
....Please forgive her this time! Please, I beg you!"
Mrs. Meng cried and kowtowed while talking.
Xiao Lingyue frowned: "Madam Meng, you don't need to do this..."
"Please, Lord Anping, just give up your hand and spare my daughter this time!" Mrs. Meng Er couldn't listen to her words at all, and kept kowtowing.
Under his scattered hair, there was a haggard and old face, with red and swollen marks on his cheeks, his eye sockets were swollen, and his forehead was almost blue.
Xiao Lingyue couldn't bear it and couldn't help but have an idea in her heart.
