This is the remnants of Lujiang King Li Yuan have arrived at Dali Temple.

Luo Shixin also temporarily put aside his temptation of Du Yan and began to interrogate the prisoner.

When interrogating the previous few people, Luo Shixin's doubts arose again: As Li Yuan's confidant, they all said that they had learned that Li Yuan was inclined to rebel before the incident. At that time, Li Yuan was holding hostage. If he refused, his life would be unsuccessful. They were forced to board the pirate ship, not intentionally rebel. While they confessed their guilt, they all said that they were just being implicated and were not involved in the case.

After interrogating several people in succession, Luo Shixin chose to temporarily adjourn the court and solicited the opinions of Du Yan and Cui Shanwei.

Du Yan said coldly: "They said the same thing, and the words were almost the same. They must have discussed in advance for self-protection. The words of the traitor should not be heard or trustworthy."

Cui Shanwei also said, "Rebellion is not a joke, if there is no sufficient preparation, how can Li Yuan do things? They are all Li Yuan's confidants, how could they not participate in it and know nothing about Li Yuan's rebellion?"

"This is the problem!" Luo Shixin stood up and walked two steps left and right: "They said the same thing. Although there was some suspicion of conspiracy in advance, it was not without the fact that they could tell the truth. I wonder if the two adults noticed that most of these people were officials from Ji County..."

Du Yan said: "Youzhou Prefecture is Ji County. What's so strange about his confidant being an official in Ji County?"

Luo Shixin shook his head and said, "As the governor of Youzhou, the territory under Li Yuan's jurisdiction includes the entire Youzhou. The military and political power can be said to be in one person. This plan to rebel. However, he only summoned the officials of Ji County, but there was no one in the surrounding officials. This really didn't look like he had been carefully planned for many years, but it was like a temporary intention. He hurriedly decided to rebel. He had no time to make arrangements and preparations, so he could only tie the officials of Ji County to his pirate ship in a short time. Will there be any problems?"

Du Yan smiled faintly and said, "Will Lord Shangshu be too worried? Li Yuan's intention to rebel has long been proven as strong as a mountain. Lord Cui, the master of the public affairs, almost died because of this. It would be fine to say this to us. It would be bad to spread it, and maybe he would be regarded as Li Yuan's alliance?"

Cui Shanwei heard this and said, "Whether it was planned or the intention was temporary, if the country was treasonable, the crime was unforgivable. What is the difference in this detail?"

Luo Shixin looked at Cui Shanwei unexpectedly and smiled and said, "What's the difference between being a good person? I really saw Master Cui's 'uprightness and strictness' today."

"You!" Cui Shanwei's face turned red, but she couldn't speak. Luo Shixin's suspicion was reasonable and evidence-based, and it was indeed a suspicion of the case. However, this was a case of rebellion in the royal family. Throughout history, he would carry out bloody purges in the face of such rebellion cases to shock the world. Not to mention that officials involved in the rebellion case, even officials who had close contact with Li Yuan would be demoted and even had their lives.

The Li Yuan rebellion case was the first rebellion case initiated by a royal relative since the founding of the Tang Dynasty. The matter spread to Chang'an and caused Long Yan to be furious. Li Yuan, who almost didn't care about politics, personally ordered Li Yuan to remove the throne, and asked Li Shimin to treat it with caution. It would be merciless.

The above attitude is so tough that Li Yuan is dead. For the sake of a dead person, it is not worthy of his future.

Cui Shanwei is self-disciplined and almost stereotyped on the surface, but he has a risk-averse attitude deep in his heart. He disagrees with Luo Shixin's approach of pursuing details.

"Okay, OK!" Du Yan started to be a friend and said hurriedly: "There are only different opinions. Often, they are all for the Tang Dynasty, so there is no need to quarrel about this."

Luo Shixin had a blue face and had long believed that Du Yan would not stand on the same front with him. He thought that the stern and honest Cui Shanwei could be on the same front with him, but he unexpectedly was also a timid rat who was changing with the wind.

"Next, there is no need to be tried." Luo Shixin thought angrily.

As he expected, the remaining people were like the former, all of whom expressed that they had received the news not long before Li Yuan was executed. They did not know that Li Yuan had the intention of rebellion in advance. They forced them into the car before the incident. Then Wang Junkuo led all the generals from Ji County, Youzhou to kill Li Yuan and captured and killed Li Yuan, and they also became the remnants in tragic way.

Li Shimin's intention was to ask them to interrogate Li Yuan's remnants in Youzhou as much as possible. In this era, cruel officials were not popular, nor did they have any practice of slandering them. At most, they were torture and confessions. The so-called severe punishment also had a limit. After all, it was not later in the Heavenly Kingdom, where cruel officials emerged one after another, and there was no limit to the means. Whoever wanted to say anything would say.

Li Yuan had no intention of rebellion at all. His rebellion was completely a temporary intention and there was no remnant saying. Luo Shixin was not Lai Junchen, he did not have the ability to make a name out of nothing, nor did he have the ability to use punishment in order to win the emperor's smile. In the end, he could only have nothing.

Cui Shanwei and Du Yan had no choice but to do anything about this.

The customs of a dynasty are the same, and Luo Shixin is not a cruel official, Cui Shanwei, and Du Yan are not.

As the chief judge, the two deputy judges must also bear the responsibility.

When it comes to a certain time, I can only choose to retrial tomorrow. This trial lasted for three days without any progress: the punishment was used, and the words of threats and intimidation were said, but none of them worked.

at last!

Du Yan sighed weakly: "Maybe as they said, they don't know there are other remnants, so let's close the case."

Cui Shanwei nodded and said, "But their status is too low and I don't know the details. If I continue to investigate, I can't find out anything. I also agreed to close the case. We should re-invest Youzhou officials and continue to get involved in the destruction, but instead gave the remaining parties time to destroy the evidence."

Luo Shixin looked at the two of them coldly and said, "I don't agree to close the case. You unanimously decide to close the case, so let's close the case."

Luo Shixin was not satisfied with the closing of the case at this moment, but the three departments had clear regulations on the trial. When the interrogation finally had differences, it would be decided by voting.

Cui Shanwei and Du Yan were in a state of trouble, and even Luo Shixin was unable to change the situation even if he was the presiding officer.

This is the institutional rule.

Seeing Luo Shixin compromise, Du Yan showed no expression on his face, but he smiled complacently in his heart: "Little brat, fight me, I'm very tender!"

Luo Shixin returned to the Ministry of Justice. When Liu Yanke saw Luo Shixin's expression, he knew the result and sighed: "Du Yan was too cunning and cunning. He had long seen Cui Shan's style of protecting himself, and deliberately said something serious. He had the idea of ​​protecting himself and was unwilling to follow the adults to investigate. With the system of the three departments' trial, the case was settled."

"Hmph!" Luo Shixin said: "As early as the first day, I saw that guy's virtue. What kind of bullshit is straightforward and stern, it is because the matter happened to others. Once it hurts itself, it is faster than anything else. I don't dare to investigate even if I know there is a problem. It's better to be a minister of Dali Temple. It's better to be self-reliant than to ask others. From then on, I have never expected him. Du Yan uses the system. Can I, Luo Shixin, use the system? Come, you write for me, and use the power of the Minister of Justice to question this judgment and ask for a detailed review."

"This..." Liu Yanke said with a little shock in his eyes and said fear: "No, sir, please forgive me for your fault. The best result of this case is that this is the point, too much, and there is a suspicion of defending Li Yuan, which will cause trouble?"

"If you want to write, you can write. There is no such a lot of nonsense. Although Luo Shixin is a rough man, he is not a fool. He also knows what Mingzhe protects himself. But he knows more about what position he does. When he becomes the Minister of Justice, the responsibility is to investigate unfair things. When encountering unfair things, he will shrink and not investigate. What official is it... Mingzhe protects himself? I understand what Mingzhe protects himself when encountering dangers and escape when encountering difficulties. When the enemy comes, he raises his hands and surrenders, and takes them to massacre and loot his compatriots to protect himself. This is not called Mingzhe protecting himself. Also, Liu Yanke will explain to you today. I know you are a talent and respect you, but if you don't change your bullshit idea of ​​"Mingzhe protects himself", you will never become a climate. Especially after the prince ascended the throne..."

Liu Yanke scolded Luo Shixin just to find a hole to drill down. He felt so wronged in his heart. He couldn't say a word in his heart: Nowadays, the saints protecting their calfs, what's the use of being fair and honest?

At this point, he finally understood Luo Shixin's temperament and wrote a letter that demanded a retrial of Li Yuan's case, and stated the reason, and handed it over to the Secretariat of the Central Secretariat and uploaded it to Li Shimin.

Soon, the Secretariat sent Li Shimin's handwritten instructions: The three judicial departments have settled the case and cannot be retried. At the same time, a verdict on Li Yuan and his confidants was issued, and everyone was exiled to the frontier.

This time, Luo Shixin didn't ask Liu Yanke to write for him, and wrote it directly himself, denying Li Shimin's verdict and requesting a retrial.

According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, the Minister of Justice has the right to appeal against the emperor's judgment on the prisoners. However, in order to safeguard the dignity of the imperial power, there are certain times restrictions.

Generally speaking, there are very few such cases, especially in rebellion cases.

But Luo Shixin used it. When he was the Minister of Justice for less than half a year, a document against the Crown Prince Li Shimin and sealed with the seal of the Minister of Justice appeared on Li Shimin's case through the Secretariat.

The Prince's Mansion of the East Palace!

Li Shimin looked at the official document written by Luo Shixin from the Ministry of Justice. A hint of grimness and a hint of anger on his face, and threw the official document on the table with a loud noise.

In the hall, Fang Xuanling was shocked, Du Ruhui looked at Li Shimin who was still laughing in confusion, wondering why the sudden sunny day turned cloudy.

Soon they heard the sound of anger and gritting their teeth from above: "People come and call me Luo Shixin, the Minister of Justice Minister..." (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better and faster!
