After listening for most of the day, he had already heard some clues, that is, they wanted to convict Lin Hu and Lin Xuzhi.
He had already said good things for Lin Hu. At this moment, what did his father mean by asking like this?
Nangong Hao frowned slightly, and cold sweat broke out in his back vest: "My son thought...it was certainly wrong to think that Prime Minister Lin concealed his brother's matter, but because the Prime Minister took the initiative to kidnap Lin Bao and surrender, the merits and demerits outweigh the merits."
Nangong Hao did not mention Lin Hu and Lin Xuzhi's other crimes.
The emperor raised his eyebrows and said, "So the King of Jin thinks that the Prime Minister is not guilty."
Nangong Hao immediately knelt down, wondering what the emperor meant?
The emperor was too lazy to look at his son, and asked the ministers: "You are all capable generals in the Northern Dynasty. Lin Bao kidnapped a girl, raped her and killed her. How do you think this case should be judged to give justice to the people? ?”
Suddenly, the ministers began to whisper among themselves again, but Lin Xuzhi stood up: "Your Majesty, it is a false accusation that Yuan Shilang sued the minister and the minister's father. Lin Bao has been tied up long ago and is now guarded outside the palace by a special person. The emperor can declare that if he goes to the palace to see, this can be regarded as the prime minister eliminating harm for the people."
This is really shameless to say.
There were countless memorials in the emperor's court to impeach the prime minister and to put in good words for him.
The emperor glanced at Lin Xuzhi, flipped through a book and read: "I am suing Lin Xuzhi, the commander of the Imperial Guard, for lining his own pockets, colluding with profiteers, plundering people's wealth, and only pursuing personal interests without caring about the lives of the people..."
"I appeal for grievances on behalf of Prime Minister Lin. Prime Minister Lin fulfills his duties with dedication, hard work and great achievements..."
"I request an order to seal down the Lin Mansion, arrest the murderer, and uphold the law of the country..."
The emperor pinched his eyebrows and felt a splitting headache. Suddenly, he scattered hundreds of memorials on the case table into the hall, and said angrily: "You are talking, how should this case be judged?"
When the ministers saw that the emperor was angry, they all said again: "Your Majesty, please calm down, the dragon body is important."
"An Yuxiao, what do you think of this case?" The emperor directed all his anger at An Yuxiao.
An Yuxiao was named, and he kowtowed to the emperor tremblingly, saying loudly: "Suspended for investigation, wait until the facts of the case come to light before making a decision. This is fair to the Prime Minister and Commander Lin, and your Majesty can give an explanation to the people, right? If these charges are really found, we will give them both an explanation."
Suddenly, the ministers were speechless after hearing An Yuxiao's words.
Regardless of whether it is a false accusation or not, I just ask the Emperor to order the truth to be found out.
Lin Xuzhi couldn't hold back his anger, "An Yuxiao, why weren't you so sharp-tongued and eloquent when you kidnapped my sister?"
Lin Hu also felt that An Yuxiao's courage had become fatter. When he went to the Lin Mansion as a retainer, he looked like a submissive scholar.
At this time, Lin Hu had murderous intentions towards An Yuxiao.
Prince Yu happened to come out to smooth things over: "I think Academician An's method is feasible. Although Prime Minister Lin has worked hard and made great achievements, he cannot rely on his old age to embarrass your Majesty. The emperor will break the law and the common people will be guilty."
"I thought it was impossible and suspended the position of the Prime Minister. This is a great distrust of the Prime Minister and damage to the reputation of the Prime Minister. After all, the Prime Minister has represented the Northern Dynasty as ambassador to various countries and made great contributions to the Northern Dynasty. There is no conclusive evidence. If the evidence is spread to other countries, I am afraid of damaging the Northern Dynasty's state system." said the Minister of Household Affairs.
"Since the Prime Minister has handed over Lin Bao, it is better to let him commit suicide on the spot as a warning to others. After all, there is really no conclusive evidence to prove that the Prime Minister is guilty." Another person from the Lin Mansion took the opportunity to suggest.
The ministers began to discuss again and thought that what the Minister of Hubu said was very reasonable.
At this time, the emperor was really in trouble. He looked at Prince Yu.
Where is the evidence?
