There was silence in the hall, but the Minister of punishment looked left and right. Seeing that none of his master and colleagues spoke, he simply closed his mouth and pretended to be dumb.

Situ LAN bit his lower lip and looked at situ Xiao. His eyes were full of pleading.

Fu Yin saluted and said: "Your Majesty, there is no conclusive evidence about whether situ LAN intended to kill you. What he said just now was learned from a medical girl under the former imperial concubine de."

"Since there is no evidence, it is impossible to make a final decision," said the Minister of punishment

Fu Yin nodded: "it's natural, but it's true that even if situ LAN didn't kill his majesty, he also killed his Majesty's biological mother, the maid named Bizhu, including three palace maids and a doctor who knew the inside story at that time. These are only the victims known by Wei Chen. It's not clear whether there are other people."

Although the palace maids are just maidservants, they can't convict situ LAN because he killed several palace maids.

What can be convicted is the dead imperial doctor and the little emperor's biological mother Bizhu. Of course, situ LAN can also say that the imperial doctor committed some crime and was executed by her. But Bizhu gave birth to the prince, so her identity can't be counted as a maid. What's more, Bizhu is now the little emperor's biological mother. If situ LAN killed Bizhu, it can be counted as murder.

Li Tinghui asked expressionless: "situ LAN, can you plead guilty?"

Situ LAN looked up in panic: "I I I don't recognize I didn't do it. I didn't... "

People didn't expect that situ Lan was still denying it at this time. Who gave her courage?

Li Tinghui: "the evidence is conclusive, why not admit it?"

Situ Lan's eyes were red. He looked at situ Xiao, who was still calm and didn't speak. His heart was full of despair.

At this time, Li Tinghui looked at the Secretary of the Ministry of punishment: "the Ministry of punishment, with many charges of situ LAN, how to judge according to the law?"

The Minister of punishment was sweating. He looked at situ Xiao and hesitated. He didn't know what to say.

A few seconds later, disappointment flashed in Li Tinghui's eyes: "it seems that Lord Zhong's study of national law is not in place. Where is the Minister of punishment?"

The left Minister of the Ministry of punishment stood up and said, "I'm here."

Li Tinghui: "for you, how to judge?"

All of you: -- If the Little Emperor didn't mean anything about the Ministry of punishment, they twisted their brains off to kick the little emperor!

The left servant of the Ministry of punishment swallowed his saliva and said in a worried voice: "according to the law It's time to chop. "

When he heard the word "Dang chop", situ Lanru was struck by lightning. He sat on the ground feebly, his face like ashes.

Li Tinghui glanced at the bottom of his eyes: "do you have any objection?"

After a while, no one spoke. Li Tinghui suddenly asked situ Xiao, "what else do you have to say about the Regent's case against your sister?"

The crowd murmured.

God, did the little emperor eat the artillery battle? Why did he take the initiative to find fault with situ Xiao again and again?!

The ministers said that they had never been so thrilling in the last court, and they didn't feel so exciting when they saw the mutual communication between Yin Xiang and situ Xiao.

Situ Xiao chuckled: "does your majesty think that I have something to say?"

Li Tinghui: "I feel that if Aiqing wants to ask for a favor for your sister, she can say it quickly. Don't waste everyone's time."

Situ Xiao: "I beg for her, will your majesty forgive her?"

Li Tinghui: No

Situ Xiao: "that minister has nothing to say."

Li Tinghui nodded: "since all the love ministers have no objection, I will behead situ LAN according to the meaning of the Minister of punishment." Then Li Tinghui looked at Zhang De and said, "let's draw up a plan."

Zhang Deyan was stunned in his heart and calmly saluted and ordered: "yes."

Li Tinghui then said, "Minister of punishment."

The left servant of the Ministry of punishment didn't know, so he stepped forward two steps: "what's your command?"

Li Tinghui: "I think you know the law better than Zhong Shangshu. You exchange positions with Zhong Shangshu. You will be the Minister of the Ministry of punishment, and Zhong Shangshu will be the servant."

Left servant of the Ministry of punishment

Minister of the Ministry of punishment

All the officials: "I'm not sure."

There was silence in the hall, and the ministers with their heads down shot the stunned minister Zuo and the livid Minister of the Ministry of punishment with their spare light. They were not sure what the little emperor was doing.

Minister of justice Isn't he also a member of situ Xiao?

What does it mean to change the soup without changing the dressing?

At this time, Yin Xiang reminded the two humanitarians, "don't you receive the order to thank you?"

The left Minister of the Ministry of punishment and the Minister of the Ministry of punishment came back to their senses and gave thanks.

Li Tinghui nodded his head with satisfaction and looked at the Fu Yin: "Fu Yin has done a good job in handling the case. He will be rewarded after the case is settled."

Fu Yin: "thank you."

Li Tinghui: "the three witnesses who have made contributions to the report will also be rewarded."

Li Tinghui: "if there is nothing wrong, then retreat."

As soon as he got out of the palace and got into the carriage, the king of Beiling couldn't help laughing.The deputy general couldn't help but ask, "what is your pleasure?"

The king of Beiling said happily: "I like this little emperor more and more. It's so interesting! He is worthy of being the son taught by Li Changting. His fearless temperament is just like his father Yimao! "

Deputy general: "you said before that Li Changting was not likable, arrogant and venomous. If you connect with him, you will lose half your life."

The king of Beiling touched his beard: "er Did I say that? "

It's a box.

As soon as Li Tinghui went to court, many ministers wanted to see him, so he went to the imperial study before he got hot.

No one has been here for more than ten years. When Li Tinghui is not in the capital, the Ministers usually discuss political affairs in the meeting hall. The imperial study is a place that only the emperor can use.

The ministers who came were the Minister of rites and the Minister of Yin.

The Minister of rites came to discuss with the little emperor about the issue of pursuing the title of the emperor's biological mother Bizhu. At the same time, situ Xiao is no longer a relative of the emperor. Does the status of the country's uncle and Regent have to be changed?

All these things are under the charge of the Ministry of rites. The Minister of rites is also the first two. It's not difficult to pursue the emperor's biological mother. It's very simple to hold a ceremony of pursuing the emperor's biological mother and give her a posthumous title. All these have regulations to find.

It's not the first time that the identity of situ Xiao has changed. But it's not the first time that there is a fake Royal relative, but situ Xiao's position is here. So many people at the bottom of him look at it, which will certainly cause many people's dissatisfaction.

The Minister of rites said: "the Regent is not related to you by blood. Naturally, he can no longer enjoy the salary of his uncle or the privileges and treatment of his relatives. It's just the status of Regent I want to know what your majesty and ministers mean

The little emperor looked at Yin Xiang: "Yin Xiang, what do you think?"

Yin Xiang: "situ LAN is guilty, but the charge does not affect the Regent. We have no right to take back his power as the Regent even if the Regent has not committed any fault."
