Chapter 2832 Losing People’s Hearts【2】

After Bai Penggong listened, he kowtowed heavily to Gu Jinan and begged: "Master Gu, what happened today is because my daughter was wrong and hurt your nephew. For the sake of your colleagues, please forgive me." For the sake of my daughter being only eight years old, and for the sake of the hundreds of lives of the Bai family, please do me a favor, say a good word for the Bai family, and give the Bai family a way to live, please!"

Bang bang bang, kowtow to Gu Jinan without risking his life.

Gu Jinan smiled, pointed at Bai Penggong, and said to the adults in the palace: "Master Bai's daughter is clearly plotting against His Majesty the Crown Prince, but instead of begging His Majesty, the Crown Prince, or the precious concubine for forgiveness, he kowtows to Gu , either he has lost his mind and gone crazy, or he deliberately wants to kill the Qin and Gu families, and wants to drag the Qin and Gu families into trouble and serve as a backstop for the Bai family."

Mr. Zuo was startled and glanced at Gu Jinan... I only knew that Gu Jinan was capable before, but he didn't expect that he could be so open-minded in front of His Majesty. He was indeed a figure who had been with the Mad Emperor of Chu for several years. Although he was young, he was not simple.

Well, you can't offend him in the future, lest you get scolded by him.

Gu Jinan swung his clothes, knelt down towards Wei Qi, and shouted: "Your Majesty, Master Bai has ulterior motives and wants to trap the Qin and Gu families in an unkind and unjust place. Please make the decision for the Qin and Gu families!"

After saying this, he bowed deeply and straightened his back, looking quite unyielding, which made Bai Penggong, who was crying and begging, even more miserable.

this?

Wei Qi was furious when he heard this, but he couldn't scold Gu Jinan, he could only scold Bai Penggong: "You bastard, it's obviously your daughter who did something wrong, but you don't want to make up for it, but you still dare to challenge Mr. Gu, what crime do you deserve? !”

Bai Penggong quickly kowtowed and admitted his mistake: "Your Majesty, your Majesty's humble minister made a mistake..."

"Your Majesty." Mr. Feng was too lazy to listen to Bai Penggong's nonsense, so he interrupted him and said to Wei Qi: "From what Mr. Bai said, it seems that he meant to blame the Qin and Gu families for ruining his family's good things. In this case, in order to avoid suspicion, I and Mr. Gu will not participate in the trial of this case."

Wei Qi was surprised and happy, but because he had no ability, he was suspicious. Seeing that Mr. Feng didn't care about this matter, he felt very uneasy and said hurriedly: "Mr. Feng is the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, and Brother An is also a capable minister of the Ministry of Punishment. He is the most suitable person to handle this case and there is no need to avoid suspicion.”

Mr. Feng said: "Logically speaking, I really shouldn't avoid suspicion, but Lord Bai has already said what he said before, and it will be difficult for me and Lord Gu to handle the case anymore."

Then he said: "Your Majesty, many cases have been sent to Beijing from Zhongyuan and Zhongzhou. They are all urgent and major cases. I and Gu Jinan will retire first. As for the case of Mr. Bai's family, Your Majesty can order Zhong Huan or Ninghou to handle it. They Both of them are people who are familiar with David's criminal law and have real abilities, and they will definitely be able to handle this case well."

Zhong Huan is cruel and ruthless. If he comes to handle the Bai family's case, none of the three Bai family members will survive!

Bai Penggong almost fainted after hearing this. He quickly knelt down and begged Mr. Feng: "Shang Shu Feng, please stay and help the Bai family. We can't let Zhong Huan take over the case!"

Mr. Feng frowned and said: "Master Bai, you are from the second place in the rankings, but why is your behavior so unappreciable? This is the Qingzheng Palace, in front of His Majesty, so you should save some face for the scholars!"

These words were quite serious. Lord Wang, Lord Zuo and other civil servants of the Wei family felt extremely embarrassed, and Wei Qi's face also didn't look good, just because Bai Penggong was appointed by him to be second in the Enke list.

"Come here, Bai Penggong has behaved inappropriately in front of the palace. Take him down quickly!" Wei Qi finally couldn't bear it any longer and ordered the imperial guards to come in and hold Bai Penggong down, gagging him to prevent him from further embarrassing himself.

Then he said to Mr. Feng: "Mr. Feng, I am helping the Bai family. Don't worry, you and An Geer will handle this case. No matter how you want to investigate or how to deal with the Bai family, I will not help the Bai family." A kind word.”

Mr. Feng still refused: "Your Majesty, there are many capable ministers in David's government and in the country. There are many capable people who can handle this case. I and Mr. Gu will withdraw first and ask your Majesty to respond."

They knelt down and begged Wei Qi to let them go.

When Wei Qi saw this, he knew that Mr. Feng really didn't want to get involved in this case. He was also afraid that Mr. Feng would be too powerful and find out the truth today. After a stalemate for a while, he agreed: "Sure, since Mr. Feng and An Ge'er If you want to avoid suspicion, I will order someone else to handle this case, and you should go back to the Criminal Department first."

"Yes, thank you Your Majesty!" Mr. Feng knelt down and bowed to Gu Jinan, then stood up and exited the Qingzheng Palace.

After they left, Wei Qi pointed at Bai Penggong and said, "Slap me!"

"Yes." Deputy Commander Fan grabbed Bai Penggong and slapped him angrily. He didn't stop until Wei Qi shouted to stop.

boom!

Bai Penggong had fainted and collapsed on the floor like mud.

Mr. Zuo was frightened and said: "Your Majesty, I think it is most appropriate for Ning Hou to handle this case. Why not send someone to invite Ning Hou?"

Wei Qi thought for a while and nodded in agreement: "Well, Marquis Xuanning will come to the palace to discuss matters."

"Yes." Mr. Zuo was shrewd and took the opportunity to escape. He personally found someone to go to Ninghou Mansion and summon Ning Ji into the palace.

However, Ning Ji had the advantage in his previous life and had long avoided it. At this moment, he was not in the capital at all, but had gone to Zhili.

There was no choice but to invite Mr. Ning into the palace.

"Not there?!" Wei Qi was shocked and asked quickly: "When did he leave?"

Mr. Ning reported back: "He left as soon as the city gate opened in the morning. He said that Lord Zhou had something to do and asked him to help... After he received the letter from Lord Zhou yesterday, he handed the cabinet a memorial to go out. Your Majesty You can ask Mr. Xuan, who is on duty."

"...No need, I can trust Ninghou." Wei Qi was silent for a while, and after greeting Mr. Ning for a few words, he ordered people to send him out of the palace.

When only Lord Wang was left in the hall, Wei Qi asked: "Brother, how do you think this matter should end?"

Mr. Wang said: "The Bai family's daughter is plotting against the prince. Although it is a conspiracy between children, if they dare to plot against the prince, it is not an exaggeration to be punished with death... However, the Bai family's daughter is still young, so it is not suitable to be punished too harshly. , I thought that it would be enough to deprive Bai Penggong of his official position and fame, and order him to take his children back to his hometown in the Northeast for upbringing. The children of the Bai family will not be allowed to serve as officials for three generations, and then demote the good concubine."

"Is that enough?" Wei Qi smiled: "My uncle is really kind-hearted."

Mr. Wang was shocked when he heard this. What does His Majesty mean by this? Do you think he is too hypocritical, or do you want to punish the Bai family severely?

But he didn't dare to ask, so he could only stand silently, waiting for Wei Qi to speak.

Wei Qi was silent for a moment and said to him: "Brother, I'll leave this case to you."

Do you want him to handle this case?

It’s not impossible.

"Yes, I obey." Mr. Wang agreed.

Wei Qi added: "The ins and outs of this case are already very clear. The witnesses and material evidence are all available. There is no need to investigate further. The matter also involves the Qin family, which will inevitably lead to chaos in the northwest. It is better to resolve it quickly... The Bai family murdered the crown prince of a country. Let’s do it.”

What!

Mr. Wang was shocked: "Your Majesty, if the case is to murder the crown prince, then there will be no one left in the Bai family."

Wei Qi said angrily: "The Bai family blatantly plotted against the prince, almost causing the prince and the Qin family to drown, almost ruining the relationship between me and the Qin family, and almost ruining this finally stable world. Don't the Bai family Damn it?!”
