Chapter Four Hundred and Fifty Second Audit Cases

Above the Jingzhao Prefecture Palace.

All the parties involved in the murder case in the West Street of Beijing knelt on the lobby.

The prince sat beside Ji Huanyu and listened. Lord Li from the Ministry of Justice was also invited by Ji Huanyu. Ji Huanyu asked Lei Lei to read the whole story of the case and the plaintiff's statement.

"It is said that the defendant came to court!" Ji Huanyu slapped the gavel with a "slap".

Lei Lei walked out. After a while, he led one person to the hall.

"I have met the prince! The prefect!" The man from here was thin and tall. He was wearing a light blue white brocade robe and was full of nobleness.

"It was him who kicked my son's brother-in-law to death!" A servant beside Mr. Liang shouted.

"Did you see clearly?" Ji Huanyu asked seriously.

"That's right! That's this person!" the servant bowed.

"Mr. Liang!" Ji Huanyu looked at Mr. Liang who didn't like to speak.

"Yes!" Mr. Liang also insisted.

"Where are you?" Ji Huanyu looked at the woman singing the song and other witnesses.

"That's right!" The person kneeling in the hall said in unison.

"Mr. Prefect! I am Zhuo Yi, a distant relative of Zhuo's family. My second cousin is in good health today! So I'll come on his behalf..." Before Zhuo Yi finished speaking, the prince said in surprise: "What's going on?"

"Come on! Lock these people!" Ji Huanyu couldn't suppress his anger. He didn't expect that these people were all in the same group! They staged a murderous trick to frame the second son of the Zhuo family.

"He is really not Mr. Zhuo?" the prince said in surprise.

"I'm here!" Mr. Zhuo Er, dressed in white, walked into the lobby. He had a handsome face, a noble expression, and looked detached.

"Why do you say you are Mr. Zhuo Er?" Lord Li from the Ministry of Justice asked, stroking his beard.

"Will I admit my mistake in my son? Do you still want to ask the emperor to come and recognize him in person?" Old Marquis Zhuo walked into the court.

"Who said I can't come?" Sima Hao and Marquis Hai walked in together.

"I pay homage to the emperor!" Everyone in the lobby knelt down.

"Get up!" Sima Hao sat on Ji Huanyu's seat who had already stood up and gave up his seat.

"I remember when I first met you, you were playing a song outside the border. I wonder if I can still have the honor to listen today?"

Zhuo Lai took out the flute from behind. The melodious and sad tune brought everyone's thoughts to the wasteland in the north of the desert.

"Tell me why you have falsely accused Mr. Zhuo Er?" Sima Hao asked as he looked at the group of criminals kneeling in the hall and were chained.

"Your Majesty! It's all because Caomin is confused for a moment and makes a big mistake! Caomin is willing to be punished!" Mr. Liang bowed and said.

"You don't seem to be a villain! Why do you have to do this?" Sima Hao said gently to Mr. Liang, who looked slightly pale in his face.

"I! The people of Cao are ashamed! I am willing to receive punishment!" Mr. Liang touched the ground with his head.

"Emperor! Since you have returned the innocence of the Second Young Master Zhuo, let them review the others!" Marquis Hai said with politeness.

"I just can't bear to see this scholar suffer!" Sima Hao sighed and stood up.

"Prepare the criminals to prison first!" Ji Huanyu spoke. The yamen runners lit up and led the criminals out.

Mr. Liang, who was walking at the end, suddenly turned around and ran to the hall and said, "Please make the decision for the people!"

The servant who had been by him broke free from the yamen runs over. Before his knife could be taken, the man was hit by a stone flying in from the yamen and knelt on the ground.

The yamen runners stepped forward and held him down. He struggled and shouted, "You know the consequences of talking nonsense!"

"Do you know what will happen if I let you out now?" Ji Huanyu sneered.

Lei Lei walked over and carried the servant out of the yamen. The servant was immediately panicked. He knelt on the ground and said that he would not go out.

"It's okay if you don't go out! Tell me!" Lei Lei looked down at the servant.

"It's Zhu Yueshan, the second son of Zhu Tingwei." The servant lay on the ground and said.

Ji Huanyu ordered someone to detain Zhu Yueshan in court. He was in court for the first trial and found out the reason for the case.

Zhu Yueshan likes Zhuo Lan in Zhuo Mansion. He once went to the Marquis' Mansion to propose marriage but was rejected. However, Zhuo Marquis betrothed Zhuo Lan to the third son of the Marquis' Mansion!

When Zhu Yueshan went to propose marriage, Marquis Zhuo was playing chess with his second son Zhuo Lan.

Zhuo Lan said that Qingyue, the son of the Haihou family, had a good character and that Zhuo Lan would be happy to marry him. This made the hesitant Marquis Zhuo reject Zhu Yueshan's proposal in person.

Although Zhu Yueshan didn't see Zhuo Lan's face clearly, he recorded the account.

When Zhuo Lan returned to Beijing after traveling abroad, Zhu Yueshan recognized the boy sitting next to Zhuo Lan's coachman. He knew that Zhuo Lan had returned to Beijing. So Zhu Yueshan designed this frame-up situation.

Mr. Liang was a friend of Zhu Yueshan. He saw Zhu Lan’s book boy with Zhu Yueshan at that time. Zhu Yueshan was afraid that Mr. Liang would leak the secret, so he lured the girl he liked to his mansion and put it under house arrest. Mr. Liang had to cooperate with Zhu Yueshan’s people to play.

The truth of the case was finally revealed. Zhuo Lan also cleared the suspicion. He wanted to say goodbye, but Sima Hao was left behind.

When Sima Hao was a prince, he always liked to do some writing and writing, so he met many literati and poets. Zhuolai lived in seclusion and Sima Hao visited Zhuo Mansion. He was the one who met Zhuolai at that time.

"You come to the academy of the palace to be a master!" Sima Hao cherishes talents very much.

"Zhuo Lai is used to being idle, and she really can't stand the constraints!" Zhuo Lai politely refused.

"This is just a false position! Just pretending! You don't have to enter the palace every day. Eunuch Zhao! Come back to the palace with me to draw an order!" Sima Hao stood up and left.

"Greatly send me the emperor!" Everyone hurriedly bowed and bowed.

Zhuo Lai stood in the court for a long time before leaving. Lei Lei had already taken people to arrest Zhu Yueshan.

Ji Huanyu sat on the chair in the hall and did not move. The water in this capital was too deep! He would rather not sit in this position.

If I hadn't had the help of my son Qingqian this time, I would probably have... my own father! It would be fine if he didn't help, but he was still secretly hiding, which was really a headache.

"Report to the prefect! Zhu Yueshan has been imprisoned!" Lei Lei came to report.

"Prepare it! The verdict will be made tomorrow!" Ji Huanyu stood up and left when he saw that it was getting late. He wanted to thank Gongzi Qingqian. But he knew that Gongzi Qingqian had secretly entered Beijing and did not want to be known. So he went to Mr. Ji's mansion to visit his children.

"I heard that the case has been solved! Why are you not happy?" Hai Yingying asked in a daze when she saw Ji Huanyu shaking the car.

"I'm not happy! Am I very happy, aren't I?" Ji Huanyu teased his son, but he couldn't laugh on his face.

"Things are over! Everything has to be looked forward!" Hai Yingying handed Ji Huanyu a cup of tea.

"You are right!" Ji Huanyu leaned his neck and drank the cup of tea, stood up and smiled.

"Well! This is Ji Huanyu!" Hai Yingying smiled and took the teacup and said.

"You are never allowed to leave me?" Ji Huanyu hugged Hai Yingying from behind.

"We are already a couple! There are three children! How could I leave you?" Hai Yingying smiled and turned to look at Ji Huanyu.

I don't think the grudge between your father and my father has gone through time...

"That's a matter between them, isn't it?" Hai Yingying pointed Ji Huanyu's forehead and put the tea bowl.
