Snapped! Another slap in the face, and blood began to flow from both sides of Feng Yandao's mouth, looking quite miserable.
Xiao Rui said sternly: "It is common for political opinions in the court to be inconsistent. Why do you say that these people are useless when everyone knows it? I want you to confess your own bad things, and you use your father to take the blame? Is it easy for me to deceive you?"
"Don't dare, don't dare, I, Wu San'er knows everything about what I did, and you have already found out..."
"Who is Wu San'er?"
Xu Yushi stood up and said: "Reporting to your lord, Wu San'er was the person in charge of the kiln just now."
"Here, he is a witness now!" An official pushed Wu San out.
"Witness? What witness? You've done all the bad things with Feng Yandao. That's called an accomplice. Get him kidnapped!" In front of the people, Xiao Rui saved face for his staff and almost called them a bunch of trash. Are they so easy to fool?
Leaning down and grabbing Feng Yandao's collar, Xiao Rui asked again: "Boy, did you see it? The people in the Ministry of Justice are watching the show. If you don't say anything useful, look at these people, your gang." Enemy, I can’t wait until your father comes over.”
"Don't stop, I said I said, my dad supported Prince Hidden Prince. Later, after the Xuanwumen, he changed the Qin Wangfu ..."
Um? ? ?
The whole place was silent! All the officials in the Ministry of Punishment, Yushitai and others were dumbfounded. The people watching were also silent.
"real?"
"Really, it's absolutely true!" Feng Yandao was probably frightened and confused, and actually confessed to Da Da.
Even Xiao Rui didn't expect that this guy had such powerful material in his mouth? This is a scam! I was still thinking whether killing this guy would make his father Feng Deyi angry to death? It's good now, no need to worry, Feng Deyi may be tricked to death by his son first.
"Everyone, did you hear it? Did you write it all down?" Xiao Rui turned his head and gestured to the people in the Criminal Department and Yushitai's own subordinates, and everyone nodded.
"Okay! Feng Yan said, before I do justice for heaven, do you have any last words?"
"What??? Xiao, if you don't keep your word, you can't kill me. My father is the prime minister, and I..."
Without even looking at it, Xiao Rui dropped the thing, turned around and casually took out the short knife from the entrance of the Criminal Department Yamen, guarding his waist. The next second, Feng Yandao had a sharp blade on his chest, piercing through his chest.
"Fish and meat common people, those who violate our laws of the Tang Dynasty will be killed without mercy!" With these decisive words, Xiao Rui seemed to be transformed into an iron bread and a blue sky, and his image in the hearts of the people was instantly established.
"Okay! Good kill! Xiao Yushi, Xiao Qingtian..." I don't know who raised his head, and the people shouted in unison, one after another, and everyone in the Penal Department Yamen lowered their heads. The faces of everyone at the Yushitai were rosy with excitement, and they all looked at Xiao Rui with admiration.
Chief An muttered in a low voice: "Okay, let's leave it to Dr. Wei. We really can't stop Mr. Xiao."
At this moment, a shrill cry broke through the crowd, and an old man in purple robe with gray hair rushed up and hugged Feng Yandao.
"Yandao, my son... Xiao Rui, if you dare to kill my son, I will kill you!" Feng Deyi's eyes were full of hatred. If his eyes could kill, Xiao Rui would have been cut into pieces by a thousand knives.
Everyone in the Yushitai quickly stepped forward and protected Xiao Rui behind them.
For a moment, Xiao Rui really felt a little soft-hearted. It was indeed a bit cruel to kill his son in front of his father.
But the next second, Feng Deyi's performance made Xiao Rui smile.
"Come here, kill everyone here without mercy!" Good guy, this old man got the news and came with more than a hundred private guards.
The indignant people shouted: "They cannot be allowed to harm Mr. Xiao, a man of the Tang Dynasty..."
"Protect Mr. Xiao!" Master An exclaimed.
Xiao Rui pushed away directly, "While hiding, who is protecting whom?"
After saying that, before anyone from the Feng family could take action, Xiao Rui had already dodged the sword of the guards from the Criminal Department and entered the enemy's formation. The people who just rushed out were confused. Do we still need our protection? He looks like a god of killing, charging in with a long sword, and there is no enemy in front of him. This is a fierce general who can be defeated by ten thousand people! Isn't Xiao Yushi a civil servant?
Before they could kill all the private soldiers, two more men appeared on the street. One was led by Princess Huainan, and the other was the people from Yushitai led by Wei Zheng.
"Wei Zheng, you are so brave. People from Yushitai dare to touch my consort?"
Wei Zheng stood in front of the princess, blocking thousands of troops by himself, and signaled to his subordinates behind him to quickly rescue Xiao Rui.
"Elder Princess, Feng said that Feng's son-in-law violated the laws of the Tang Dynasty. We are handling the case impartially."
"Handle the case impartially? Do you, the censor, have the power to arrest people? Get out of the way. Anyone who dares to touch my consort today will be killed by this princess!"
Wei Zheng is not even afraid of the emperor, how can he be afraid of a princess?
"Princess, our Yushitai does not have the power to arrest people, so we have sent him to the yamen of the Ministry of Justice. If you want to see the consort, you can wait until the Ministry of Justice investigates the case and takes him into custody. You cannot interfere with the Ministry of Justice's handling of the case now."
"My son, damn Xiao Rui, you will definitely die today! Give my son back his life..." Feng Deyi's shrill screams spread to the streets.
What? ?
The memorial in Wei Zheng's hand was also a little trembling, thinking no way, Xiao Rui is so cool? Killing someone in the street? No, killing his son in front of Feng Deyi?
When the eldest princess of Huainan heard this, she was shocked. My consort was killed?
"Wei Zheng, get out of the way!"
Just as the situation was about to get tense, a group of men and horses roared over and surrounded the entrance of the Criminal Department Yamen. "Everyone stop it, I will do it!"
"General Yuchi..." Wei Zheng shouted.
Yuchi Gong had a dark face and refused to acknowledge anyone, "According to His Majesty's instructions, all the people involved today will be taken and sent to the Tai Chi Palace."
"Yu Chi is rude, how dare you, my princess..."
"I'm sorry, eldest princess. Private soldiers are not allowed in Chang'an City, and neither can you. Someone, come and escort the eldest princess into the palace."
In the Taiji Hall, the Minister of Punishment kept talking about how arrogant Xiao Rui was... Emperor Li Er lowered his eyebrows, showing no emotion or anger. He just listened quietly. Several confidants on both sides were all frowning and analyzing.
"Your Majesty, that Yushitai Xiao Rui ignored the national law, resorted to lynching, threatened to do justice for heaven, and beat Feng Yandao to death in front of others..."
Li Er asked patiently: "Wang Aiqing, you are the Minister of Punishment. Is Feng Yandao's crime extremely heinous and unforgivable? Is the evidence conclusive?"
"This... humble position has not been found out, and I don't know for the time being, but in any case, Xiao Rui should not use lynching."
"What's the reaction from the people around you?" Li Er asked.
This... the people, they... do have some criticisms of Feng Yandao!
boom! Li Eryi slapped his hand on the table in front of him and shouted angrily: "There are quite a few complaints? Is it because the people are so angry? The people hate the words of those people. How can you turn a blind eye to the Minister of Justice at the gate of your office? Come and sue Xiao." Rui abuses lynching and ignores the national law? I would like to ask you, the minister of punishment, why it is not you who declares that the crime of silence is extremely heinous at this moment?"
What? I……
Du Ruhui, who was standing next to him, sneered in his heart. This minister of the Ministry of Justice has done his job. In the face of public anger, he still dares to protect the murderer? Aren't you trying to make trouble for the imperial court? Who among the common people still believes in the Ministry of Punishment?
At this time, the secret guard reported urgently: "Report, in front of the Yamen of the Ministry of Justice, Xiao Yushi on the censor station announced Feng Yandao's ten major crimes, and he had killed Feng Yandao in public. At this moment, the Duke of Mi and the eldest princess of Huainan each led their private soldiers. , go straight to the Penal Department Yamen!"
Li Er snorted coldly: "Come here, order Yuchi Jingde to lead a thousand cavalry team and bring all the relevant people from the Punishment Department's Yamen Gate to Tai Chi Hall."
