Chapter 540 Noisy in Front of the Hall, Twenty Sticks
Jinluan Hall.
Dragons and tigers are leaping on the golden lacquered pillars, solemn and solemn.
The civil and military officials were dressed in official uniforms and lined up on both sides of the hall. Everyone was expressionless and the officials were intimidating.
On the dragon chair in front of the main hall, the young emperor is dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe and a dragon crown on his head, exuding the air of an emperor naturally.
Ordinary people will never see such a scene in their lifetime.
Mr. Liu, Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Liu stood in the center of the hall, their legs trembling.
Obviously the person sitting on it was the familiar Xiaofeng, but the situation seemed strange.
There is also Fengqingbai.
Standing at the head of the civil servants, his expression was indifferent, showing no emotion.
He was obviously the person who was in front of their eyes all day long, but in a different place, his aura was completely different.
It wasn't the first time they saw Feng Qingbai wearing an official robe, but it was the first time they really realized how honorable this man was.
It's so different from what they thought before.
This is the true pride of heaven.
He is the king regent who can make hundreds of officials bow their heads!
In such an atmosphere, the humbleness of the people at the bottom is unconsciously magnified.
The elders of the Liu family couldn't restrain their hearts from beating drums, and they lost their usual generosity.
In comparison, the people from the Liu family in Kyoto behaved more naturally.
Although it looked a little nervous, it was also a natural expression in front of the emperor.
The background of the big family is reflected at this time, which is not comparable to that of a small family.
The two parties were all present, and everyone knew in their hearts why they were making trouble in the Golden Luan Hall.
The number one scholar, Liu Zhixia, handed over a complaint to the emperor, suing the Liu family in Kyoto for making out of nothing, and suing the governor of Kyoto for unfairness in verifying the judge.
Now the matter must be judged by the emperor himself, with all civil and military officials as witnesses.
Feng Qingbai lowered his eyes slightly, walked out from the ranks of civil servants, and stood in front of the two groups of people. Leaning slightly closer to Liu Yusheng's side, he said to the person sitting above him. "Your Majesty, there are rumors that the two willows are a family, and the noise and dust in the capital is full of turmoil. Both parties involved in the incident are well-known figures in the capital. If this matter is not resolved as soon as possible, it will have a very bad impact on the entire capital and even the world. .Please ask the emperor to make a decision."
Grandpa Liu, the old lady and the others looked at Feng Qingbai's back from behind and heard him speak in a calm and unhurried tone, their tense mood suddenly relaxed.
No matter where and under what circumstances, they knew that Feng Qingbai was on their side. No matter what happens, he will cover them up.
This is the trust that seeps from the bones.
No reason is needed.
Liu Yusheng, Liu Zhixia and Fu Yuzheng, standing beside the elders, looked at Feng Qingbai's position in the hall, and twitched behind their backs.
Even in the Golden Luan Hall, under the noses of civil and military officials, he expressed his thoughts clearly with actions.
He was standing in the queue of Xinliu Mansion.
All the officials understood in their hearts, but no one dared to say a word.
King Nanling is the future son-in-law of the Xinliu Mansion, so it is only natural that he takes a biased position.
This is not a fault that can be caught in the hands of others.
On the dragon chair, Feng Mohan nodded slightly, "I have heard about this matter, and it really caused a lot of commotion. One side is the once richest man in Nanling, and the famous Liu family in Kyoto. The other side is Liu Yusheng, the new top scholar and head of Ruyi County. The Xiaoliu family in Xinghua Village represented. One party insists that the other party is a branch of the family, while the other party believes that the other party has created something out of nothing. I am also curious about which is right and which is wrong."
Then he said to the eunuch beside him, "Submit the evidence."
Immediately, someone submitted the Jingdu Liu family tree, and at the same time, there were other relevant records, which were circled as supporting evidence.
"My Majesty, these materials were collected from Yunzhou when I was investigating. Although the copywriting is old, the handwriting is still clearly legible. It clearly records the names and origins of the ancestors of the Xiaoliu family. Liu It is unfair for the academician to sue the minister, and the minister is really wronged!" The governor of Jingdu took the opportunity to call out his injustice.
"Academician Liu, do you have something to say?"
Liu Zhixia stepped forward and saluted, "Back to the emperor, I shouldn't have blamed the handling style of the parents and officials in Kyoto, but as the other party to this matter, the Weichen family was not informed from the beginning to the end during the evidence collection process at the Yamen, and lost their knowledge. Furthermore, even if Fu Yin believes in written information more, he should at least confirm it verbally with the person concerned, and obtain the opinions of the person concerned and other evidence. However, Weichen and his family did not get the notice from the Yamen until the end, and went to court to hear the result! Excuse me. If Mr. Fu Yin is not unfair, why did he only work for the Liu family in Jingdu from the beginning to the end, but leave my Xinliu House out of the matter?"
"That's not the case. After reading the information, the officer confirmed that the evidence is sufficient, so he made the decision to directly announce the verification results..."
"Your Excellency said that the evidence is sufficient, so have you read the genealogy of my Liu family in Xinghua Village? Is there any record on my family tree about the origin of the ancestors? But if there are any doubts or loopholes, you should check it from the side! This is an official judgment. The most basic rules! It’s not a year or two for an adult to be an official, have you always acted so arbitrarily and only listened to one side’s opinions? Can you be worthy of the official hat on your head? Can you be worthy of the trust of the emperor? Can you be worthy of the support of the people?"
Liu Zhixia interrupted the Governor of Kyoto who wanted to defend himself, and questioned him one after another in a cold voice, which made him turn pale gradually.
The last three sentences are especially deadly.
No matter which one you hit, you are in danger of losing your black yarn!
There was a family member in Liuhuai's side who couldn't hold back his anger. Seeing Liu Zhixia's questioning, the governor was speechless, proving that the governor was biased against the Liu family in Kyoto, and rushed out and cursed, "It's so unreasonable! Your branch made a mistake and was dismissed. A person who was expelled from the clan, a sinner who was expelled, dare to write his own history! Now let you come back, it is the kindness of the Patriarch, and he does not want to see the children of the clan wandering outside!"
For his curse, Liu Zhixia didn't refute, just looked at him coldly, with a faint smile on his lips.
Liu Yusheng also held down the grandparents who wanted to fight back, lest they get angry and ignore them.
Seeing this, the members of the Liu family were secretly proud of the contribution they had made to the family, but the voice of the young man above him was indifferent.
"Without my permission, I made a noise in front of the hall without authorization. Come, drag out the staff for twenty sticks!"
The members of the Liu family were dumbfounded, and hurriedly looked at Liu Huai, hoping that he could intercede for him. He jumped out and scolded Liu Zhixia for the sake of the family. The Patriarch can't just ignore him!
To be beaten twenty times with a stick in a place like the imperial palace would cost half your life!
But Liu Huai was standing with his hands folded, looking at his nose and heart, and didn't look at him at all!
Soon a guard came over to drag him down, and the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became more oppressive.
Although the emperor punished the people of the Liu family in Jingdu for making a noise in front of the hall, it was just an excuse, and everyone present knew that the emperor was leaning towards the Xinliu mansion.
