Just when Wang Yaru was about to say something, a loud shout suddenly came from outside the hall: "Sir, I not only have physical evidence here, but also two living witnesses. I wonder if I can come out to testify?"
Zhang Yuhang's voice was very loud, not only could the people around him hear it clearly, but also everyone in the hall could hear it clearly.
Although Qiao Yu didn't know who was shouting when he heard this, he instinctively had a bad feeling and said directly: "My lord, although I am just a minister of the Ministry of Industry, I am also an important minister of the imperial court. Today, my lord has summoned me. Regardless of whether he was wronged or not, he came calmly.
Because I believe that your Excellency is an upright official and will definitely not unjustly accuse me. However, first I bought this false accusation from an outsider at a dental shop, and now it is openly exposed in the lobby, and someone is talking nonsense. If your Excellency accepts this today, I will not wait. Do the thoughts of people with good intentions mean that whenever someone is dissatisfied with us in the future?
You can write a baseless complaint, and just because of this, Your Majesty will detain us, important officials of the imperial court, here. Have you considered the consequences of doing so? "
Nie Rong just glanced at Qiao Yu indifferently. Under such irrefutable evidence and still being so fickle, did he really not know who he was, or did he not know that he was the uncle of the eldest prince?
I don't really think that I can get away with a few words. As the minister of the Ministry of Industry, I shouldn't be so stupid.
"Pass, let him come in and talk."
Faced with Nie Rong's neglect, Qiao Yu was very angry, but he really didn't have the guts to act arrogantly in front of the Minister of Punishment.
"Sir, you are trying the important officials of the imperial court with great fanfare. The minor officials dare not make trouble with you, but I will definitely report this matter to His Majesty and His Majesty will judge it."
Nie Rong said impatiently: "That's your right, but now the magistrate has asked someone to verbally inform His Majesty of the complaint against you. Your Majesty already knows it now. If you are lucky, you may not need to do it tomorrow, but you can do it today." See His Majesty."
After all this time, I thought it was just a simple false accusation. This person is so stupid. I really don’t know how he got the position of Minister of the Ministry of Industry.
Zhang Yuhang stepped into the lobby and saw Nie Rong sitting in the high hall. He also gave a respectful salute: "Zhang Yuhang, the new 100-household supervisor of the humble post of supervisor, has met Lord Shangshu and Lord Qiao, the minister of the Ministry of Industry."
Zhang Yuhang.
Nie Rong instantly thought of a new Baihu appointed by His Majesty to Jian Tiansi not long ago, the son-in-law of Xingyong Marquis and the concubine of Yongchang Marquis.
He was able to join the officialdom as a son-in-law. At that time, he was still curious about what characteristics this person had that would attract His Majesty's attention. He did not expect to meet the real person so soon.
"Zhang Baihu, I know you. You just said you had a witness. Where is it?"
Zhang Yuhang gestured to Zhang Wen outside the door, and accompanied by a clerk from the Ministry of Justice, several people walked in together.
"Sir, these two people are Guo Li, the son of Mr. Guo Huai, Guo Guo, the imperial censor of Zuodu, and Qiao Xiangjun, the son of Mr. Qiao, the minister of the Ministry of Industry.
Mr. Qiao, you probably don’t recognize your own son. "
Qiao Yu pointed at Zhang Yuhang angrily and scolded: "You are a small family, what qualifications do you have to arrest people without authorization? The criminals in Kyoto are under the supervision of the Ministry of Punishment, and what's more, the governor of Jingzhao is in charge. When will it be his turn?" Is it time for your Supervisor Tiansi to come forward?"
Zhang Yuhang smiled and said: "Rather than worrying about why we, Supervisor Tiansi, came forward now, Mr. Qiao, you should consider how to explain to His Majesty and the people of this world."
Then he took out a copy of the complaint from Zhang Wen's hand and handed it to Qiao Yu: "I guess you don't even know what the complaint says specifically. You just thought it involved the original Wang Yaru. It’s all about the whole family, so you can be so confident. I hope that after reading this, you can still have this sense of superiority.”
Qiao Yu swallowed unconsciously. He was very panicked now because he realized at this moment that Supervisor Tiansi came for him this time.
He can ignore the little Wang Yaru, but Jian Tiansi takes action. Even Jian Tiansi, who is almost forgotten now, no one dares to forget how frightening this yamen once was.
He carefully read every word in the complaint, line by line, item by item, which made it extremely difficult for him to read, because not a single thing was unjust or fabricated.
But the more this happened, the more frightened he became, because it proved that Jian Tiansi had already checked him out, and he had long been on Jian Tiansi's blacklist.
Zhang Yuhang looked at this scene, and then continued: "Sir, Brother Qiao and Brother Guo and I hit it off in the restaurant and invited them to be guests of our Supervisor Tiansi. However, maybe it is because our Supervisor Tiansi is so upright that we just entered the door not long ago. , the two brothers rushed to tell all the wrong things they had done before.
After investigation, it was discovered that Miss Wang had been imprisoned in the foreign government, and she was brought back out of good intentions and humiliation. However, she did not expect that Miss Wang would suffer such injustice, nor did she expect that so many important officials from the imperial court would intervene behind the scenes.
The matter is so important that I dare not say anything because of my humble position, and I don’t want the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty to be wronged because of this matter and let the people involved go unpunished, so I asked Miss Wang to come to the Ministry of Punishment to complain.
As an important minister of the imperial court and the pillar of the country, and the Ministry of Punishment is in charge of the world's criminal laws, it is up to you to come forward to investigate and get to the bottom of this matter, so as to give our country a clear sky, give justice to those who have been wronged and wronged, and let the dead souls rest in peace. . "
As soon as Zhang Yuhang finished speaking, Qiao Yu immediately retorted: "Nonsense, all of this is purely fabricated. Sir, everything this person has shown must have been obtained by beating a child into a trick. He has done countless things. .”
Although he was stupid, he knew that he couldn't admit it even if he was killed, otherwise he would really die without a burial place.
Zhang Yuhang sneered and said: "Master Qiao is really good at predicting things, but it's a pity that I haven't done anything to Mr. Ling. In fact, even he knows how much you do.
Mr. Nie, the person you sent to verify all this should be back soon. The complaint makes it very clear that we are well prepared even for witnesses and physical evidence. Based on your experience, there should be no need to waste this matter. It's time. "
Nie Rong cast a questioning look at the clerk next to him. The clerk stepped forward and whispered in his ear.
After the clerk walked away, Nie Rong looked at Zhang Yuhang curiously. It was indeed the work of Supervisor Tiansi. The witnesses and physical evidence were ready and waiting for them to investigate. However, the scope of this matter was too wide, and he felt a little regretful for a moment. The trial was held.
Sweat broke out on Qiao Yu's face unconsciously. He knew very well what these things meant to him, but when he turned around and thought about it, these things affected a wide range, and the number of officials involved, not to mention Shang Guang of the Ministry of Justice, even Your Majesty cannot act recklessly, otherwise the situation in the court will definitely be in turmoil.
So what should you do now?
Yes, don’t say it, don’t say anything.
Those people will not prove that they have been convicted of this crime, otherwise they will also have to be buried together.
