Chapter 217 Dealing with Justice

"Furthermore," Mr. Wei continued: "Three years ago when the Crown Princess was giving birth, Princess Qing attempted to murder the Crown Princess and almost killed both the Crown Princess and the Emperor's grandson. It was the Crown Princess who was kind and did not pursue the matter. If Princess Qing continued If she deceives her too much, the prince will pursue her crime of murdering the royal descendants."

The people below were like an exploding pot, and they immediately started talking.

"It turns out that Princess Qing really wanted to harm the Crown Princess. Isn't she too cruel? She killed two people."

"Is she jealous because of hatred? No wonder she has to assign a crown princess."

"She longs for the prince, so how can she have the nerve to frame the prince and the consort?"

"That's right. She doesn't follow the rules of a woman and dares to accuse the Crown Princess unjustly. It's so abominable."

"Quiet!" Mr. Cui slapped the gavel and shouted.

Mr. Cui was also very helpless. This case was a knife hanging over his head. It was a royal matter, and it was brought to the Yamen. This was really embarrassing for him.

But the prince is determined not to offend, and he is currently sitting in the back hall listening to the trial.

Moreover, the personal and material evidence brought by the East Palace are all there, so Princess Qing cannot deny them.

After thinking about it for a while, he said: "Mr. Wei, I will tell the princess what you said. As for the princess slandering the reputation of the Crown Princess, because Princess Qing is not here, I cannot interrogate immediately. I will investigate first and then ask the emperor for instructions." Make the verdict.”

Let the emperor or queen decide on royal matters. He can just find out the facts of the case.

Master Wei had finished what he wanted to say, so he held up his hands and said, "Everything must be obeyed, Your Majesty."

"Quit!" Mr. Cui was on pins and needles. After taking the bow, he retreated and trotted back to the back hall to see the prince.

Nangong Yitian held the teacup, glanced at Master Cui, and said calmly: "Master Cui handles the case very quickly. I just drank three cups of tea, and the case is over."

Mr. Cui wiped the sweat from his forehead and said in panic: "Your Highness, now that the matter has been made clear, I believe no one will dare to criticize the Crown Princess again in the future, but this is always a matter of the royal family. I have to report it back to the emperor and let the emperor make a decision. It’s just in line with the rules.”

Nangong Yitian put down his cup, "The government office has a mouthpiece, do you know how to speak to the outside world?"

"Your Highness, please rest assured, Wei Chen knows how to do it." Master Cui said with cupped hands.

Nangong Yicai showed a slight smile, "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Cui."

"This is a minor official's job. It's not hard work."

Nangong Yitian stood up and walked out with his hands behind his back. Mr. Cui chased after him in small steps, "I will send you off to your highness."

"No need, I leave through the back door." Nangong Yitian strode out. There must be many people watching outside the government office, so he chose to go through the back door.

After Master Cui watched him leave, he sighed softly.

"Sir, what are you going to do?" Fu Cheng stepped forward and asked, "Today is a public trial, and the people are present. Sir Wei's words are tantamount to ruining the princess. Your Highness is indeed a little ruthless this time."

Mr. Cui said calmly: "Don't talk nonsense. The evidence from the East Palace is very sufficient. Princess Qing did ask people to slander the Crown Princess. If Your Highness does not sue her, it will be the Crown Princess who will be destroyed."

Fu Cheng said: "But the things that the Crown Princess was discussed about have always been true or false, and cannot be confirmed. Now His Highness has asked Lord Wei to come out and say that the Princess is entangled with him. This is the final conclusion, and it is a major ethical matter for the Royal Family. The Emperor will definitely I’m so angry, I’m afraid it will implicate the Lord.”

Mr. Cui said seriously: "There is nothing we can do about it. The gate of the government office is open. Anyone can file a complaint as long as there is evidence. Therefore, after I report to the emperor, I will still deal with it impartially."
