    Inside the Qianqing Palace

    Before the regular meeting of the Chang Dynasty ended, the ministers and emperor present heard the loud drumming outside. Emperor Ming Ling was surprised and asked hurriedly:

    "Could this be the sound of drums?"

    We can¡¯t blame him for being uncertain. The main reason is that the number of times the drum has been beaten is really too few. This is the first time since he took the throne, so it is inevitable that he will feel a little strange and uncertain.

    ¡°Your Majesty, this is indeed the case!

    Your Majesty, do you want to summon the person who complained to you?  "

    The Minister of Punishment knew that what was about to happen might have something to do with him, so he hurriedly stepped forward to speak.

    "Taizu has an order that anyone who beats the Dengwen drum must have his case accepted. Come and go out and see who is beating the Dengwen drum. If it is a commoner, go to the Dali Temple to accept the complaint. If it is not a commoner, report it."

    Emperor Ming Ling was also a little interested. After all, this was the first time since he succeeded to the throne. If he wasn't worried that civilians would complain about trivial matters, he would have wanted to go outside and see for himself.

    As soon as the order was given, the eunuch on the side quickly passed the order out. After it was passed outside the hall, the guards with swords outside the hall hurriedly ran out. At this time, the guards beside the Dengwen Drum were also quickly passing the news.  Sent to the inner court, the two sides handed over exactly in the middle, and then reported the relevant situation back to Qianqing Palace in the shortest possible time.

    "Reporting to Your Majesty, the person beating the drum outside the palace is the Marquis of Min. The Marquis of Min wants to sue his second sister-in-law."

    "Your Majesty, I request you to severely punish the Marquis of Fujian.

    He actually went so far as to personally beat the drum and complain about this trivial household matter. It was really humiliating to the court!  "

    As soon as the inner prison officer finished his report, the Minister of Rites next to him hurriedly stepped forward, with a slightly angry look on his face, and spoke frankly in annoyance.

    In his opinion, such small family matters cannot be brought to the table at all. Even if there is any situation, it should be solved at home. It is really rude to ask the emperor to judge!

    ¡°The Taizu¡¯s order must still be obeyed.

    ?? Come, bring the Marquis of Min up and ask him to tell the court what crime he is going to accuse his second brother-in-law of. You all should listen to it for now. If you feel that it is really not a big deal, it will not be too late to punish her later.  "

    Emperor Ming Ling had also heard about the reputation of Marquis Min as a coward, so he was very curious about what he wanted to accuse him of and how he had the courage to accuse him. Therefore, he would not punish him directly. Instead, he had to recruit him to find out what happened.  Even if it's really nothing big, it's still nice to watch the excitement.

    The Minister of Rites still wanted to say something, but he was quickly pulled back by the Minister of Rites next to him. No matter where this matter would develop in the future, it had nothing to do with their Ministry of Rites, so why bother getting involved?  Woolen cloth?  I just said a few words to express my attitude.

    The emperor has given the order, so people outside will naturally have to call the Marquis of Min up quickly, because the Marquis of Min is qualified to enter the palace and to see the emperor, so there is not much inspection step required, as long as he is inspected  If there is no murder weapon on him, you can take him there.

    However, there was still a distance between the location of Dengwen Drum and Qianqing Palace, and they could not ride horses, so Emperor Ming Ling and the others still waited for about a quarter of an hour before seeing the Marquis of Min.

    "I pay my respects to Your Majesty, Your Majesty, His Majesty's blessing!"

    As soon as Ning Jinzhong entered the main hall, he quickly found a central place to kneel down and say goodbye.

    "Without courtesy, if you have any grievances, Marquis Min, just tell him directly. The ministers are all here, as are the Minister of Punishment and the Prime Minister of Dali Temple. Tell him quickly!"

    Emperor Ming Ling asked with a chuckle.

    "Your Majesty, I am guilty!

    I did not take good care of my name card, so my second brother-in-law used it for other purposes, including lawsuits, profiteering, and even death.

    The minister is guilty!  "

    Ning Jinzhong knew very well that no matter what, he would not be able to escape the crime of oversight. Instead of concealing this part of the information when filing a complaint, and waiting for others to find out later and accuse him, it would be better to plead guilty first. Even if the emperor thinks of him  In terms of the attitude of apologizing for sin, one must be given a lighter sentence.

    The crime of negligence can be big or small, but judging from his attitude of pleading guilty, it is not that serious. At most, he will be reprimanded and his salary will be deducted for a few years.

    "There is such a thing, is there any evidence?"

    Emperor Ming Ling was also quite surprised. Whether it was taking a lawsuit, taking advantage of others, or forcing someone to die, it was not a small crime. If it were really judged according to the law, it would be banishment at the least, and beheading at the worst.  Serve as a warning to others.

    ¡°Your Majesty, I have evidence!

    The evidence has been brought here!  "

    Ning Jinzhong naturally does notHe would fight an unprepared battle. The relevant evidence had been collected a few days ago. As he spoke, he took out the stack of papers from his arms and handed it to the internal warden next to him, who then handed it over.  In the hands of Emperor Ming Ling.

    At this time, all the ministers below looked at each other in confusion, not knowing what to say, while Emperor Ming Ling was looking at the stack of papers in his hand attentively. His face became worse and worse as he looked at it, and finally he slapped the table and said:

    ¡°What a vicious woman.

    It's really good to be the leader of the lawsuit. Mr. Dali Temple, this matter must be investigated strictly. There must be no less officials involved in the evidence. I should arrest them all first. In addition, send someone to the Marquis of Min's Mansion to arrest the official.  We arrested the poisonous woman together and ransacked the yard where the poisonous woman was. We should be able to extract some more evidence.

    The successor wife of the newly appointed Marquis of Min was really unkind, and indulged in such a thing.

    Ning Qing, although you don¡¯t know, this matter is indeed your fault. Please remember to cooperate with the Prime Minister of Dali Temple to investigate the case later. Please retreat from the court. In the afternoon, I will go to Dali Temple to personally supervise the inspection. Please hurry up.  Arrest the relevant personnel as soon as possible.  "

    After saying that, Emperor Ming Ling waved his sleeves and left.

    The ministers below had no choice but to look at each other in disbelief for a while and then respectfully bid farewell to His Majesty.

    Afterwards, the other ministers who had nothing to do with it were not in a hurry. They went home slowly one by one. At most, they discussed with each other what happened this morning. Those who were related to this matter were the Ministry of Punishment and Dali, a subordinate of the Ministry of Punishment.  The temple did not dare to delay at all, and immediately began to issue orders after leaving the court. While sending people to pick up the people, they also sent people to start searching for relevant evidence and some files that may be related to this case in the past. It was chaotic for a while.

    There was no way, the emperor said he was going to inspect the Dali Temple in the afternoon, so before the emperor got there, they would definitely arrest all the relevant people. There was no way the emperor had not arrested anyone when he got there, right?  Is that still true?

    Do they still want official hats?

    Therefore, soon some of the lower-level officials involved in the case, those who had been contacted during the champerty lawsuit, and even the main personnel in the case, the second sister-in-law of Min Hou and all the servants in her yard were all arrested.  Arrive at the case.

    The current purpose of Dali Temple is to ensure that no one may be involved, so they dare not let anyone go. As long as everyone who may be involved is arrested first, they will be released later if there is no problem.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
