After the divorce, the reborn emperor seduced me into his arms

"Are you threatening me?"

"Don't dare."

The seemingly calm questions and answers between King Qi and Ye Zulong made the scene very tense.

No one expected that Ye Zulong, the eldest son of the Ye family, would suddenly appear in the princess's mansion.

And he brought so many Jinwu Guards with him!

Judging from the situation, they are heading straight for the princess's mansion!

Did he already know that a murder would happen in the princess's mansion?

Only Yan Qing looked calm, but felt slightly relieved in his heart.

When she agreed to bring Gongsun Zhi to the princess's mansion, she guessed that an accident would happen, so she asked Luzhi to find her uncle this morning. Fortunately, her uncle arrived in time, otherwise she alone would not be able to save Gongsun Zhi from the hands of King Qi.

The Jinwu Guards are the royal guards, responsible for patrolling and guarding the palace and Kyoto. Why would they come to the Princess's Mansion for no reason?

And they all wear armor and carry blades?

At this moment, there was nothing that the King of Qi didn't understand.

He stared at Yan Qing with gloomy eyes, and said in a voice that was neither happy nor angry: "Second Miss Yan is so calculating!"

I'm afraid this woman has known for a long time that Gongsun Zhi wants to kill Lu Mingyue, and everything today is under her control!

But she wants to save Gongsun Zhi?

dream!

"Since Miss Yan wants the three judges to hold a joint trial, then I will grant your wish!"

Without waiting for Yan Qing to reply, the King of Qi coldly ordered, "Come here, take Gongsun Zhi to the Dali Temple for trial!"

No matter what, it is an indisputable fact that Gongsun Zhi killed Lu Mingyue. Even if the three courts hold a joint trial, she cannot escape the punishment of murder for her life!

Even if we can't drag Yan Qing and the Ye family into this, we can't let them off easily!

At that moment, Gongsun Zhi was captured.

When passing by Yan Qing, Gongsun Zhi suddenly raised her head and looked at Yan Qing in panic.

Yan Qing nodded at her soothingly.

Gongsun Zhi felt extremely guilty.

She still implicated her...

A flower-viewing banquet turned into a murder scene, and the three courts had to be involved in the trial.

Everyone present was panicked, but couldn't help but wonder what had happened between Gongsun Zhi and the princess consort. After all, one was the princess consort, and the other was a woman who frequented gambling dens. How could these two people, who had no connection at all, actually have such a connection? And how could Gongsun Zhi be so bold as to commit a crime in the princess's mansion?

A group of people followed him to the Dali Temple.

Wang Zhiyi, the Minister of the Dali Temple, was an upright and impartial person who never bowed to power. When he tried a case, he only looked at the evidence and the truth.

This is also the reason why the King of Qi agreed to the joint trial by the three courts.

Yan Qing was worried that he would abuse his power to oppress others, and he was also worried that the Ye family would shield the murderer, so it would be best if this iron-faced Lord Wang presided over the trial of the three courts.

Moreover, he had people in the Censorate and the Ministry of Justice, so the King of Qi was not worried.

The person from the Censorate was Lord Sun, the Left Vice-Chief Censor, while the person from the Ministry of Justice was...

"Master Li?"

Yan Qing spoke first.

When Lord Li, the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture, saw Yan Qing, his mouth twitched. Why was it this ancestor again?

Well, today he just needs to be a mascot and not show off in any way.

The King of Qi frowned and asked, "Why is it you?"

Lord Li stepped forward and saluted the three princes, then replied respectfully, "Your Excellencies, the mother of the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice has suddenly fallen ill, so he has requested leave to return home. Therefore, I will temporarily be acting as the Chief Judge of the Ministry of Justice to preside over the joint trial of the three courts."

King Qi: "Where is the Right Assistant Minister?"

Lord Li: "The Right Minister has been keeping a mistress and his wife has found out. He is now kneeling on the washboard..."

King Qi: “…”

These two are his people, why are they both busy today?

Prince Li couldn't help but ask, "Where is the head of the Ministry of Justice?"

Even if the left and right assistant ministers are both busy, there is still the Minister of Justice. How could the prefect of Jingzhao be allowed to serve as the chief official of the joint trial of the three courts?

Lord Li said politely, "Your Highness, the Minister of Justice, Lord Gong, was attacked by a prisoner while interrogating him today. He was bitten on the ear and is currently receiving treatment at the Imperial Hospital."

King Li: "..."

Only Prince Jing laughed out loud: "Did the Ministry of Justice violate the Heavenly Law today? Why are they all in trouble? Hahahaha..."

Lord Li was also ashamed.

He didn't understand before. Wasn't it just a joint trial by three judges? Why did one or two of them get into trouble?

But when he saw this little ancestor Yan Qing, what else did he not understand?

Anyone who messes with this little ancestor will be in trouble.

The Wu'an Marquis Mansion is a lesson for us.

He must learn from the Marquis' Mansion and protect his own life.

The three judges arrived and began to try the case.

The Dali Temple Minister Wang Zhiyi sat in the first seat, with the Left Deputy Inspector Sun and the Jingzhao Prefecture Governor Li standing on both sides respectively.

"Who is this person? What have you done? Come here immediately!"

Lord Wang slammed the gavel and shouted at Gongsun Zhiqing who was kneeling below.

The King of Qi was worried that Gongsun Zhi would try to quibble, so he spoke first: "Kill this man..."

"I killed someone."

Unexpectedly, Gongsun Zhi admitted it directly.

She looked up at the three adults and said firmly, "But I don't regret it, because Lu Mingyue deserves to die!"

Deputy Inspector General Sun immediately said, "How dare you! Lu Mingyue is the current emperor's son-in-law. How can you kill him just like that? In my opinion, you must have been instructed by someone. Tell me, who instructed you?"

"Master Sun!"

Wang Zhiyi interrupted Deputy Inspector Zuo: "We haven't even investigated the entire case, how can you make a judgment on it?"

Lord Sun immediately smiled apologetically, "Yes, I was worried that this woman was cunning and would not confess, so I was a little anxious. Please don't blame me, Lord Wang."

Lord Li looks at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose.

If you go against Little Ancestor Yan, Lord Sun will be in danger~

Lord Wang glanced at Lord Sun with dissatisfaction, then fixed Gongsun Zhi with a sharp gaze: "Since you admit to murder, then tell me why you killed someone? Were you ordered to do so?"

"No one ordered me!"

Gongsun Zhi suddenly pulled out a petition from her bosom and raised her hands above her head: "Your Excellency will know it at a glance."

The bailiff stepped forward, took the petition, and handed it to Lord Wang.

Gongsun Zhi slowly spoke, "I'm from Fanyang. My father is a teacher. I've been betrothed to Lu Mingyue since we were young..."

The yamen was now surrounded by people.

In addition to the young men and ladies who followed from the princess's mansion, there were also many common people crowded outside. No one knew what rumors they had heard, but they surrounded the entire Dali Temple office.

Hearing Gongsun Zhi's words, the onlookers exclaimed, "What? She's actually engaged to Prince Consort Lu? Or is it an arranged marriage?"

"Since Prince Consort Lu was already engaged, why did he marry the eldest princess?"

"Could it be that the eldest princess stole her husband?"

"But I see that the Prince Consort and the Princess are very affectionate on a daily basis, it doesn't seem like they were forced..."

There was a lot of discussion outside, but the King of Qi said coldly: "What nonsense!"

He stood on the high hall and spoke loudly to the crowd, "My sister asked Lu Mingyue about this back then, and he said he had no engagement. My sister also sent people to investigate, and the Fanyang Lu family also confirmed that Lu Mingyue had always been chaste. How could there be any talk of marriage robbery?"

"Oh! Keep yourself clean?"

Gongsun Zhi suddenly raised her eyes to look at the King of Qi, her eyes bloodshot as she spoke, "Because everyone who knew the truth was killed by him, of course he kept himself clean! An entire street of people are dead!!"
