The heavens began from the great age

Chapter 208
"The prince broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people!
As the son of the censor, Mei He has received the grace of the country, so he should be more cautious in his words and deeds!

But he didn't respect the law and discipline, and robbed other people's ancestral treasures.So that the sufferer crashed to death in the Kaifeng mansion!
Captain Long was caught innocent!
In addition, the case should be punished!In the face of troublemakers, only under the three trees can there be truth!

Your Majesty, as a censor, it is impossible for Zhao Tingzhi not to understand this truth.For his own selfish desires, he did not hesitate to utter nonsense in the imperial study, and I beg you to kill him, so as to imitate the world! "

Hearing the crimes Zhao Tingzhi accused, Yang Xiao glanced at him contemptuously, then turned around and complained.

"Your Majesty, even if the sufferer crashed and died in the Kaifeng mansion! The case is free to be accepted by the Kaifeng mansion! Moreover, Captain Long ransacked his home without asking for an order. If he is not punished, all officials will be in danger!" Zhao Ting Said angrily.

"Your Majesty, Lieutenant Long Jin has the responsibility to supervise all officials and catch thieves. If the Kaifeng mansion hadn't been hidden from the officials of Mr. Mei, so that the sufferer had no way to sue, how could the sufferer be killed in the mansion? It caused a crowd of people. Tang Taizong said that water can carry a boat, and it can also overturn it. The minister did this to eliminate hidden dangers for the court!

Mr. Zhao, as the censor of the dynasty, don't you even understand this? "Yang Xiao said tit for tat.

"Shut up!"

Cai Jing listened to the argument between the two, and said a few words.Putting his hands in his sleeves, he raised his head and said, "Dare to ask Marquis Wu Zhong, is Mei He guilty?"

"Of course guilty, here is the confession!"

Yang Xiao handed over the confession.

Of course it would not be Cai Jing who picked it up, but Dai Quan who picked it up, first gave it to Emperor Suining, and then passed it around.

"Being tortured into a trick, how can this be regarded as evidence!" After reading the confession, Mei Changlin said angrily.

"My lord, if there is a confession here, it is considered a witness. When we arrested the criminal, we found a picture of a snow-capped bird in the son's study, which is a physical evidence. There are all personal and material evidence, so why can't it be regarded as evidence. Still Fortunately, you are not from the Ministry of Punishment, otherwise, there will be many injustice cases all over the world, and the people will be alienated!" Yang Xiao said.

"Meihe, what do you say?" Emperor Suining finally spoke.

"Your Majesty, it's true that torture is a trick. If I don't do it, they will beat me with a whip! The affidavits on this confession are not what I wanted to draw, but they forced me to!" Mei He cried.

In order to enhance the visual impact, he also tore off his shirt, revealing the welts and bloodstains on his body.

"Mei He, His Majesty's question is not whether you have been punished or not. Rather, whether you have committed any crimes?" Yang Xiao had already guessed that Mei He might reverse the case, and sneered.

"Your Majesty, the student is not guilty! The picture of the snow-capped birds and birds is..."

Having said this, Meihe's eyes flickered a few times.Thinking of the situation in Long Jinwei's prison.

At that time, the jailer only asked him one question.The painting of birds and birds in the Snow Mountain is the masterpiece of Huang Quan, the queen painter of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.

"Your Majesty, that picture of birds and birds in the snow-capped mountains is indeed an ancestral relic of our family!"

Gritting his teeth, he thought of a plan and said loudly.

"Impossible, that's not what you said in your statement!" Yang Xiao shouted loudly with an unbelievable look.

"I have already said that it was a trick of torture! My father also knows about this painting!"

Seeing Yang Xiao's appearance, Mei He's expression became complacent.A picture of him being reprimanded by His Majesty and ordered to be beheaded even appeared in his mind.

In order to strengthen his persuasion, he simply added another sentence, and looked at his father Mei Changlin pitifully.

"Your Majesty, this painting is indeed an ancestral heirloom in my family!"

Although Mei Changlin felt something was wrong, in order to save his son's life, he still opened his mouth.

"idiot!"

Hearing what the two said, Cai Jing's eyes widened a little, and after a curse in his heart, his eyes narrowed again.

"Your Majesty, please behead Mei Changlin and Mei He. Stealing other people's money is not counted, and you dare to talk nonsense in front of Your Majesty and turn black and white!"

When Yang Xiao saw the two people entering the urn, he became excited and shouted loudly, "Your Majesty, I found out through inquiry. The suffering master showed this painting in public yesterday, and no less than a hundred people saw it in the neighborhood! If your Majesty doesn't believe it, I will tell you now Maybe you can ask someone to come over as a witness!"

"what?"

After hearing Yang Xiao's words, Mei Changlin turned pale with shock!

Until now, how could he still not know that he had been cheated? First he glared at Mei He fiercely, and then said desperately, "There are many imitations of paintings. Is it possible that his painting is a forgery?"

"It's really imminent death, it's still unknown!"

Yang Xiao laughed again, turned his head and looked at Emperor Suining again, "Your Majesty, after the suffering master showed the painting in public, he was angry that the painting could not be owned by the family, and because of the evil deeds of the Mei family, he wrote in the lower right corner of the painting A very small hate word. If your majesty doesn't believe it, you can take a look!"

After saying that, Yang Xiao handed the picture of snow-capped mountains and birds to Dai Quan.

"Your Majesty, maybe this painting...isn't this the one found in the subject's house?"

Hearing this, Mei Changlin didn't know that Yang Xiao was making every step of the way, closely linked.For the sake of his family and his life, he had to desperately find a life-saving straw.

"Your Majesty, when I searched for the stolen goods, I thought that Mrs. Mei would look like this. In order to be sure, Mr. Mei once pressed his fingerprints on the back of the painting as evidence on the spot. At the same time, there were more than a dozen people on the back The signatures and fingerprints of Long Jinwei who participated in the search for stolen goods!" Yang Xiaoma said.

"what?"

In a word, Mei Changlin and Mei He were in mourning.The expressions of Cai Jing and Emperor Suining changed.

Dai Quan hurriedly turned over the painting, but there were more than a dozen signatures and handprints on it.

"Why are the paintings of the sages so trampled!"

The dazzling inscriptions and handprints only made Emperor Suining grimace for a while, and said angrily.

"Your Majesty, I also know that this is inappropriate. But in order to make a solid case, I can't help it! This matter is indeed my fault. I will find the family of the victim and compensate at market price!" Yang Xiao bowed.

"That's it, that's it!"

Emperor Suining waved his hand distractedly, and looked at Mei's father and son again, "What else do you have to say now!"

"Your Majesty, I'm guilty!"

At this time, Mei Changlin also knew that the sophistry was not only useless, but would make Emperor Suining even more disgusted, so he could only kowtow.

"Go on and wait for the Holy Judgment!"

Emperor Suining looked at the two of them sympathetically, then turned his head to look at Yang Xiao.

The image of Noble Concubine Murong appeared in his mind, he waved his hand disheartened, and ordered.

"It's done, call it quits!"

Watching the big Han general put the Mei family and his son under arrest, Yang Xiao felt very proud.

He planned to go to Xue's family to propose marriage after going back.At the same time, I have to talk about the reason why I can't marry her for the time being.

Thinking that she had taken the revenge of retiring the engagement for Xue Baoqin, she reckoned that the little girl would be willing to be Xue Baochai's concubine and marry herself!
That's right!

Everything he did was for Xue Baoqin.

Because he always felt that asking Xue Baoqin to marry him as a concubine with empty teeth was a bit baseless and not sincere.

That's why, he didn't hesitate to turn black and white and set up the Mei family as a gift for her!
