Han Pu, who was sitting in the main seat, looked at the evidence that had just been sent, with an indifferent expression and waved his hand. Naturally, someone sent it to the case of the Minister of Punishment for him to check. The Minister of Punishment took a few glances and found that the evidence on it was extremely detailed. , but many things were just touched upon, and the real interests were not included. Obviously, the person who investigated his existence actually knew more, but still left him some leeway. It was not because he wanted to To truly expose his relationship with Brother Fang, but this is actually expressing a fact.
It's threatening, and it's clever.
The Minister of Punishment looked at the young man over there. He didn't know who was behind him. At this moment, he just felt a little painful.
The Minister of Punishment sat down slumped, his face kept changing, and finally he said feebly: "It is true."
Although the sound was not loud, it was heard.
The people in the courtyard immediately started shouting and cursing. At this moment, they even put down their fear of the monks. They didn't care about such a minister of the Ministry of Punishment.
They were doing these things while eating the food of the Liang Dynasty, which would of course make them angry.
The so-called majesty is not something they care about at the moment.
Han Pu waved his hand, "Take Master Shangshu away and ask Mr. Li to come over."
Since there was no more news from the palace, Han Pu could understand the emperor's thoughts.
The chief officer of the Ministry of Punishment is Shangshu, and there are two other ministers on the left and right.
Soon, the slender Li Shilang came here and saluted Han Pu, "I have met Mr. Han."
"Sit down. Since Lord Shangshu can no longer attend the trial, let Li Shilang take his place."
Han Pu glanced at the few monks standing aside, and then turned his gaze to Chen Chao, who was standing in the hall. He didn't know what other methods this young man had, but no matter how it looked, his preparations were more than that.
After Chen Chao finished asking the Minister of Punishment to leave the meeting, he never spoke again. This was naturally a situation he had thought of early on. When he entered the Dali Temple before, he encountered a scheme that seemed neither serious nor serious. Afterwards, although Han Pu came in time to relieve the siege, Chen Chao knew that a Dali Temple would naturally have the eyes and ears of many monks from outside the country.
So when Xie Nandu came to see him, although there were many things he wanted to tell this talented woman of the Xie family, Chen Chao still didn't say it clearly. In the end, the two of them talked about the stove and sweet potatoes. In fact, they talked about everything.
Since he was going to be tried by the Three Law Divisions, how could Chen Chao not make preparations?
Investigating these officials of the Three Law Departments is something that must be done.
After Xie Nandu understood what the Chen Dynasty meant, he asked Xie to check the officials of the Sanfa Division when he returned. Han Pu, the minister of Dali Temple, had always been a famous lonely minister in the Daliang Dynasty. He had no cliques on weekdays, and it was impossible to get along with Fang Fang. There are connections with foreign monks. The Imperial Censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate has always been honest. Whether it is with officials from the government or the public or with foreign monks, he has not been too involved. He is pure and clean.
Only the Minister of Punishment has always had some unexplained connection with Monk Fang Wai.
Therefore, Chen Chao knew from the beginning that the Minister of Punishment was definitely on the side of the monks outside.
There are only two reasons for forcing the Minister of Punishment away. One is to cut off the wings of monk Fang Wai in the Three Laws Division, and the other is to arouse the sympathy of the people who are watching.
That is something extremely important.
Things keep brewing and news keeps coming out.
…
…
After the replacement, the trial will naturally start again.
Han Pu waited until the place became quieter and then asked: "Since you admit that you killed those monks, what's the reason?"
Chen Chao calmly said: "I think the three adults have already seen the evidence they provided. It was indeed me who killed those Qi Refiners, but the Qi Refiner named Guo Xi, after entering Tianqing County, , so they planted evil tricks on Mi Ke, the magistrate, for no reason and wanted to torture him to death. Then I led them into the mine. Several of them also wanted to kill me first, so I had no choice but to fight back and kill these few. Kill them all."
Chen Chao began to talk about the reasons. The people present were filled with angry faces and were very dissatisfied with this. They were already standing with Chen Chao at this moment. When they heard that Chen Chao was almost killed by those people for no reason, they were naturally extremely angry.
"It's all for no reason, but it's a good reason. Can't I allow you to slander me for no reason after my death?" A voice suddenly sounded, questioning, with surging emotions.
The person speaking at this moment was neither the middle-aged Taoist nun nor Xu Yu, but Yu Ke, who had been silent before.
He glanced at the Minister of Dali Temple and asked, "Is this how the Liang Dynasty tried cases? Just by saying something without reason, can you confuse right and wrong?"
After saying this, Yu Ke looked at Chen Chao again and sneered: "Okay, in that case, let me ask you, do you have any evidence that Guo Xi planted evil tricks on Mi Ke? In other words, if you send someone After checking, what if he doesn’t have such things on him?”
Chen Chao said calmly: "Guo Xi is dead, the secret method will naturally dissipate, and there is nothing to investigate."
"That's what you said again?" Yu Ke sneered, "There's no evidence for what you said. I'm afraid it's just a lie you made up to avoid responsibility."
Listening to Yu Ke's words, the room became very quiet, because it was true. Even though Chen Chao said these things, he still did not provide convincing evidence.
Han Pu's face was expressionless, while the newly arrived Li Shilang was thoughtful and didn't know what he was thinking. As for the Censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, there was no reaction at all. It seemed that he had been there from the very beginning. He had already fallen asleep and was still not awake at this moment.
"I think the case can be closed." Xu Yu also stood up and shook his head: "What's the point of listening to his nonsense here?"
He and Yu Ke looked at Han Pu together, putting pressure on the Dali Temple Minister.
The middle-aged Taoist nun also stood up, looked at Chen Chao with disgust and said: "Such a thief should be trampled to death, so why bother?"
If we were to say who wanted Chen Chao to die the most among everyone present, if this Taoist nun said second, then absolutely no one would dare to say first.
Han Pu frowned, looked at Chen Chao and asked, "What do you want to say?"
He also knew that 80% of the young people in front of him no longer had any means. Even if they did, they might not be able to change the current situation, at least they would not be able to fundamentally solve the problem.
The killing of four monks is an ironclad fact that cannot be changed.
Chen Chao took a deep breath and suddenly laughed, "Actually, they are too anxious."
Han Pu asked: "What are you so anxious about?"
"Several descendants died at my hands. Of course I can understand this feeling. It is reasonable to be sad and painful, but they really deserve to die!"
"presumptuous!"
"Arrogant!"
"you wanna die!"
Hearing these words, the three monks had different reactions. The middle-aged Taoist nun finally couldn't bear it anymore. When she raised her hand, the whisk appeared in her hand. With a little tip of her toes, she swept towards Chen Chao. It turned out to be in the lobby of the Ministry of Punishment. It's time to take action.
Han Pu frowned, and the bright red official robes on his body suddenly bloomed, and the boundless murderous intention was released here. The whole hall seemed to have suddenly fallen into a boundless hell, with screams and shouts everywhere. Those with fragile minds should be Even though he was holding his head in pain, he squatted down.
Xu Yu and Yu Ke looked a little ugly, but they still said in unison: "Fellow Daoist Wang, calm down!"
If it were somewhere else, killing Chen Chao would mean killing him, but where is this place? That was the Capital of Gods. It was clear that the young man in front of them was at the end of his rope. There was no need to take action at this moment. On the contrary, if they really wanted to kill him, then they would never be able to leave the Capital of Gods.
The case has not been tried and the young man has not been convicted. Da Liang Chao can definitely say that he is not guilty, but it is unreasonable for the Taoist nun to kill Chen Chao.
The fly whisk is separated and the silk wadding is blown away, like rough waves crashing onto the shore.
But at this moment, Hanpu is like a sea of blood, which the Taoist nun can shake with a few waves.
The two briefly fought, and the Taoist nun instantly fell into a disadvantage.
Soon, the middle-aged Taoist nun fiercely withdrew several feet away, while Han Pu remained motionless in place.
"Master Wang Xian, don't you understand what this place is? It's the capital of the gods, the hall of the Ministry of Punishment, not your sect in Sanxi Mansion. I'm afraid you still have to restrain yourself a little, right?"
Han Pu's face was expressionless, but in fact he was extremely angry. Taking action in front of him was no different from hitting him in the face.
The middle-aged Taoist nun's face was full of anger, but she also understood that she was not Han Pu's opponent. At this moment, her anger dissipated a little, and she also knew that if she really wanted to take action here, the consequences would be serious and she could not bear it.
Xu Yu took a deep breath and said softly: "Forgive me, Mr. Han."
It is a very difficult thing to make these foreign monks bow their heads.
But at this moment he had to bow his head.
Han Pu sneered and said: "If Master Wang Xian is like this, I feel that there is a hidden secret in it. Otherwise, why would I be so impatient? If Commander Chen is really guilty, he will be punished according to the laws of the Liang Dynasty. Why do you need to do it yourself? ?”
"you……"
The middle-aged Taoist nun snorted coldly, her face looking extremely ugly. But he didn't say anything more. He just sat back and said nothing.
Indeed, being in the capital of the gods at this moment was not the place where she should be.
Xu Yu and Yu Ke also sat back.
Han Pu looked at Chen Chao. He had to admire this young man. With just one sentence, the three monks lost their minds. Just for this calculation, the young man in front of him was worthy of admiration.
only……
This time, before Han Pu could speak, Chen Chao said: "I said before that they wanted to kill me, so I killed them. This was not my motive for killing. I wanted to kill them because they really deserved to die. Let me do that again. If I choose a hundred times, I will still kill them!"
He was very calm when he spoke, but it was this calmness that made the three monks' faces so gloomy that they almost shed tears.
Han Pu asked: "Why do you say that?"
Chen Chao took a deep breath and said slowly: "Not to mention the evil trick Guo Xi planted on Governor Mi for no reason, nor to mention that these people had the intention to kill me before entering the mine. They alone The purpose of this trip to the mine is that I must kill them."
Hearing this, Xu Yu frowned slightly, while Yu Ke's face turned pale. As for the middle-aged Taoist nun, he still felt hatred in his heart again.
The place became very quiet, no one spoke, everyone was waiting for the answer later.
Han Pu narrowed his eyes. The Minister Li looked at Chen Chao very seriously, and the Censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate also opened his eyes.
The people in the courtyard were very quiet.
Chen Chao said extremely seriously: "Those people went to the mine not for the mysterious veins, but to seize the dragon veins of our Liang Dynasty!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole place was as silent as death.
