Ji Xiaolan: Kill Qianlong at the beginning

Mo Li sat in the hall, Du Xiaoyue stood behind him, and above their heads were plaques with four large golden characters inscribed on them: "Justice and Integrity."

Kneeling in the hall were Liu Changfu, the lawyer, and Fan Datong.

Emperor Gai Zhang walked in, supporting Lady Liu. He Shen followed closely behind.

Mo Li immediately went down the hall and bowed, saying, "Your Highness, I respectfully welcome you."

He Shen said, "Mo Li, you are quite sensible. Please step back immediately. Please ask the emperor to personally judge this case."

Mo Li said seriously, "No, the Emperor cannot preside over the trial."

He Shen said, "How outrageous."

Mo Li continued, "The Great Xuan Law clearly stipulates a recusation system. Relatives of prisoners are not allowed to judge cases. Old Madam Liu Ruxu is the Emperor's biological mother, and the Emperor is the son of the principal criminal in this case. She should recuse herself."

He Shen shook his head and said, "Mo Li, you are so bold. The Great Xuan Law is not for the Emperor."

Emperor Gai Zhang said, "Heshen, stop arguing. Mo Li, the case is closed today, and you pronounce the verdict."

Mo Li bowed and said, "I obey your command." He immediately sat back in the hall.

He unfolded the paper on the table and said, "Master Xu Bin, behead him immediately."

Lawyer Xu Bin was so frightened that he fainted on the spot, and two yamen runners immediately came up and dragged him away.

Mo Li continued, "Fan Datong, the magistrate of Yancheng, shall be executed immediately."

Fan Datong was limp all over and was dragged away by two yamen runners.

Mo Li continued, "Yancheng Prefect Liu Changfu, behead him immediately."

Liu Changfu said in a trembling voice, "Sir, the Emperor." He was also dragged away by two yamen runners.

Mo Li hesitated for a moment and looked at Liu Ruxu.

Emperor Gai Zhang said, "Mo Li, pronounce the verdict."

Mo Li gritted his teeth and said, "Liu Ruxu, also known as Boss Xue, shall be executed immediately."

After saying this, he slammed the gavel.

He Shen was stunned and said, "Mo Li, is there anyone else who hasn't been sentenced yet?"

Mo Li took off his official hat and said slowly, "Mo Li, behead him immediately."

Emperor Gai Zhang asked, "What is Mo Li's crime?"

Mo Li said, "Mo Li was a minister, but he killed the emperor's biological mother. This is treasonous and he deserves to be put to death."

Seeing this, Du Xiaoyue slammed the gavel and said, "Du Xiaoyue, execute him immediately. Brother Li is my lover. If he dies, I will not live either."

Emperor Gai Zhang said, "Mo Li, there is another person who must be executed. Aixinjueluo Hongli, beheaded immediately."

He Shen said, "Your Majesty."

Mo Li thought that we were from the same hometown, and if you died, I would be left without a companion, so he said, "No, the emperor is not guilty."

Emperor Gai Zhang said: "As the ruler of a country, I cannot save my biological mother in order to uphold the laws of the country. I should also be executed as a warning to unfilial sons in the world."

Mo Li said, "I cannot judge the king."

Emperor Gai Zhang said: "A son can die with his mother."

After saying this, he looked at Liu Ruxu and said, "Don't worry, mother. I will commit suicide to follow you."

He Shen saw this and said, "Mo Li, are you completely devoid of humanity?"

He rushed to Mo Li and said, "Quickly release the old lady, otherwise the emperor will..."

Du Xiaoyue also said: "Brother Li, the emperor cannot die."

Mo Li said: "I know, I know."

Liu Ruxu let out a long laugh and spat out blood. "Before my mother went to court, she knew she would die. I took a poison pill. I've killed so many people, so why should I die?"

He Shen shouted, "Quickly call the imperial physician, call the imperial physician."

Liu Ruxu said: "Your Majesty, it is not the Great Xuan Law that wants to kill me, but I myself am disgusted with the world. Son, you must be good and be a good emperor. If I can see you once while I am still alive, I will have no regrets even when I die." After that, she fell into the arms of Emperor Gai Zhang.

Everyone knelt down.

……

Forbidden City.

The buildings are towering, magnificent and solemn.

In the Shangshu room, Emperor Gai Zhang was carefully examining a calligraphy and painting with a magnifying glass.

At this time, someone said, "The adults are here."

Emperor Gai Zhang said, "Come in."

As soon as Heshen entered, he bowed and said, "Your servant Heshen pays homage to the emperor."

"No need to be polite, just come and take a look." Emperor Gai Zhang waved his hand.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." He Shen immediately came to the side of the Emperor. "Your Majesty is admiring a painting. Traveling in the Mountains and Rivers."

The Emperor handed the magnifying glass to Heshen and said, "Please help me identify it and see if it is authentic."

"I dare not, okay." Heshen took the magnifying glass and looked at a certain place.

Then he said, "What does the emperor think?"

The Emperor said, "I look left and right, and no matter how I look at it, it seems to be the real thing. It is a famous calligraphy by a famous person, and its reputation is well-deserved."

He Shen thought for a moment and said, "Since the Emperor says this is true, then it must be true. Yes, yes, it must be true. The Emperor's discerning eye is so sharp that I cannot compare. Besides, as long as your imperial calligraphy is inscribed on it, the value of this painting will increase a hundredfold."

The Stamp Emperor smiled smugly.

At this time, someone said, "Master Mo has arrived."

Mo Li walked in, bowed, and said, "Your Majesty, I, Mo Li, pay my respects to you."

Emperor Gai Zhang smiled and said, "Hurry up and take a look at this exquisite painting." Then he handed over the magnifying glass.

Mo Li took it and began to look through it with a magnifying glass. After a moment, he said, "A Traveling Map of Mountains and Rivers."

Heshen said yes repeatedly.

Mo Li looked at it for a while longer and said, "Your Majesty, this paper is old, and the ink is also old, but the color of the seal is a little different."
