"If you steal someone's property and are caught, you must return it in full. If you steal one tael, you will be punished with ten taels. If you steal ten taels, you will be charged with a hundred taels. , to be a slave for ten years. A thousand taels will be a slave for a lifetime."

Lin Yu squeezed his chin and nodded, saying,

"Stealing people's property and making them slaves is a good policy. A good policy must be vigorously implemented. But what if someone steals 1 taels from someone?"

Wei Zheng pondered for a moment and said,

"If it exceeds ten thousand taels, the life and death of the thief will be at the disposal of the owner of the property."

After hearing this, Lin Yu laughed out loud, making everyone puzzled.

After laughing, he said loudly word by word,

"The thief I'm talking about today is Wang Yong'an. He has been stealing my property for many days. Up to yesterday, he has stolen a total of 150 million taels. Is this number enough for him to entrust his life and death to me?"

When they heard the figure of 150 million, all the ministers gasped. This is such a huge number. If it was only real money, how did Wang Yongan steal it?Even if it is pulled by a horse-drawn cart, it will take more than 100 horse-drawn carts.

It took several days to get caught. How many people would believe such nonsense?

But there was no one to refute it, so it was taken as a fact, only Wang Junkuo shouted that it was impossible,

"How could my son steal 150 million taels from you? He only takes money from home, where can he get it from outside?"

"If your son didn't steal it, why did you send 150 million to my house?"

Lin Yu immediately asked back.

Wang Junkuo replied without thinking,

"You said 150 million taels to buy me a leg, and I'll give it to you. Otherwise, I don't know how to come here today."

Lin Yu tilted his head, looked at the other party, and clicked twice

"If you didn't guess wrong, you should have injured a leg, right?"

"Yes, you still shot it with a gun."

At this moment, Wang Junkuo really wanted to pounce on Lin Yu and bite Lin Yu, even if he chewed all his bones, he couldn't calm down the anger in his heart.

"Hey, didn't you buy your legs with money? Why did you hurt one?"

"It's you who said that if you want to break my two legs, I took out 150 million and only bought one back."

As soon as this remark came out, the ministers were all indifferent, but if this was the case, Lin Yu would be really unkind.

The robbers kidnap people, and after taking the ransom, they will send the people back.Fortunately for Lin Yu, spending a lot of money ended up hurting a leg less.

Lin Yu spread his hands and asked innocently,

"He said that, who of you believes it? Do you believe it?"

Lin Yu pointed at the minister closest to him, who shook his head repeatedly.

"Do you believe it?"

He pointed at the person next to him instead, and the person leaned to the side and didn't speak.

"Your Majesty, do you believe this? 150 million taels... silver, vain money, to buy a leg?"

As Lin Yu spoke, he walked to Wang Junkuo's side, kicked his injured leg, and Wang Junkuo grinned in pain.

"Hehe, your leg is probably not made of jade, is it?"

Chapter 4 seventy, bang bang bang, face hurts

Chapter 4 seventy, bang bang bang, face hurts

Wang Junkuo angrily reprimanded,

"Could it be that I still use my own injuries to frame you when I'm old?"

"Then maybe, your son deserved his death and stole more than 100 million taels of silver from me. It's up to me to live or die. Of course you don't want me to have a better life."

Lin Yu said it as a matter of course, and in a panic, Wang Junkuo got up and threw his fist at him.

But firstly he was old, and secondly his leg was seriously injured, he didn't even touch the corner of Lin Yu's clothes.

"Your Majesty, don't you just watch this son kill people and still get away with it?"

Li Shimin coughed twice, and looked away. Seeing this, Wang Junkuo knew that Li Shimin was planning to favor Lin Yu at this moment, so he turned to the other officials,

"My colleagues, don't you want to see the laws of the Tang Dynasty being humiliated and the justice of heaven no longer? If so, what should the country and the country be? Wouldn't the people's well-being become a lie? You are all loyal ministers of a country, are you really going to be blind Is it Xiezhi?"

Many officials didn't look at him, or turned their faces away, or bowed their heads in silence, as if they didn't hear him.

Everyone is not stupid, the shining evidence of Lin Yu is sufficient, and Li Shimin also has the intention of leaning towards Lin Yu, who will be idle and have nothing to do.

Leaving aside the previous incidents, Hou Junji and Li Xiaogong were all a long time ago. Now that Wei Zheng has just received forty boards, no one wants to have their ass bloom just because of a word, right?

Wang Junkuo's hope is gone. He has long seen that the minds of the powerful officials in the court are nothing more than fighting with each other and seeking benefits. If there is no benefit, they will not take action. The most important thing is to protect yourself first.

Wang Junkuo faced Wei Zheng again, but Wei Zheng ran away as if seeing a plague, joking, he almost lost himself, now I just hope Lord Lin Yu has a lot, don't remember his transgressions.

Seeing this, Gao Shilian walked away silently. It's best not to get dirty at this time. When Lin Yu looked at him just now, he just felt cold all over his body. It's not like he hasn't seen this kind of look before.

At the beginning, Lin Yu also looked at Chen Shilong, Hou Junji, and Li Xiaogong in the same way, but in the end, none of them ended well.

Seeing this, Li Shimin felt sober, and felt that this was almost the end of the case, and the truth of the case came to light, so he announced,

"At this moment, I believe that all the lovers understand that Wang Yongan stole Lin Yu's property, and Lin Yu dealt with it according to the law. I think Wang Junkuo is old and frail, and he was once an important minister of the country, so he will be exonerated."

When the ministers heard this, they finally breathed a sigh of relief and complimented in unison,

"Emperor Shengming!"

Wei Zheng added a sentence at the end,

"It's the great fortune of the Tang Dynasty and the blessing of all sentient beings that my emperor decides the murder case skillfully and restores justice to the world!"

The person who was talking about dealing with Lin Yu just now started to claim Lin Yu's innocence again, and even Lin Yu felt pain from this slap in the face.

But people still think this is very right, and it is extremely normal.

At this moment, Lin Yu just wanted to say one thing,

"A thick face is not achieved in a day."

This is definitely a result of being slapped in the face every day and honed slowly.

When Wang Junkuo heard the verdict, he exclaimed that it was impossible, saying that the 150 million taels belonged to him, and it was definitely not Lin Yuyuan's property, and he even guaranteed it with his head.

Lin Yu only asked with a mocking smile,

"Master Wang, you kept saying that the 150 million taels of silver belonged to you, so let me ask you, what was your salary when you were an official?"

Wang Junkuo looked at him with scarlet eyes, but didn't speak, and Lin Yu turned to ask Wei Zheng.

The latter answered honestly,

"100 taels a month, and 300 taels every year and festival."

"That's 500 taels a year."

When Lin Yu said this, everyone secretly screamed that it was not good.

"Then there is a problem. Even if you saved your salary all year round when you were an official, it would take 1000 years to save 150 million taels, right? Where did you say you got so much money?"

As soon as this remark came out, Wang Junkuo said angrily,

"Ignorant boy, can't I get money from other sources?"

"Elsewhere? What place? According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, officials are not allowed to engage in business, even family members. Then you can only make money from your official position... Oh~ you are corrupt!"

Lin Yu pointed at the other party and smiled, Wang Junkuo immediately retorted,

"It's nonsense. I have been an upright and honest official all my life. How can I be corrupt? Don't frame me!"

"Then you have to explain where so much money came from, right? Then there will be money in the sky if you don't become your home?"

Under Lin Yu's persecution, Wang Junkuo was so angry that his mind became hot, and he said without thinking,

"My 1th birthday the year before last, all the officials in the court sent me congratulatory gifts, which one did not give more than 150 taels of silver? Could it be that I have no money? The 300 million taels is just a part of it. My son got married six times , every time there is a big scene, and the dowry gifts received add up to 100 million taels of silver! Will I not be able to come up with this small [-] million taels? Lin Yu, what else can you say?"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone in the audience was shocked. Doesn't this mean that all the officials have been confessed?Those people all hated Wang Junkuo to the bone.

You said that you are a person who has half of your body buried in the loess, why do you still jump out to pull your back?Can't you live your old age well?

Many ministers were confused and prayed that the emperor would not care about this point. As long as Li Shimin didn't say anything, none of the ministers present would show up again. After all, no one standing here has a clean foundation. clearly.

Lin Yu clapped his hands and suddenly realized, "Oh, that's how it is. It's a good business opportunity to get money so fast. I'm going to marry a wife in the next two days. Come join me, everyone. At least 1 taels per person. Don't worry!" Less, or you will lose everyone's identity."

Then he was puzzled again, and said to himself, but the voice was clearly heard by everyone,

"That's the question, so many ministers, have they all gone to give you gifts?"

So he pointed to one person and asked,

"Have you gone yet?"

The man shook his head again and again,

"No, I didn't go."

Lin Yu pointed at another person,

"you go?"

"No."

"did you go?"

"Never heard of it."

"how about you?"

"I don't know him well."

Then Lin Yu walked up to Wei Zheng, and asked with a playful smile,

"Master Wei, I think you have a very good relationship with Lord Wang. Brother Jun Kuo is short, brother Jun Kuo is, you must have gone, right?"

Wei Zheng raised his head and inadvertently caught a glimpse of Li Shimin's dark face, and immediately denied it,

"That day I felt cold and couldn't get out of bed, so I didn't go. I just sent someone to bring two pots of tea as a congratulatory gift."

"Haha, not bad, not bad, the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water, Mr. Wei, this is not polite and affectionate."

As Lin Yu spoke, his eyes shifted to Gao Shilian, before he could speak, the latter immediately put aside the relationship,

"I had a dispute with Wang Junkuo before, so we met like enemies, how could I attend his birthday banquet?"

"That's not right. Looking at your posture just now, it seems that you really want to make decisions for him. How can you become an enemy now?"

Gao Shilian didn't blush, but said without a beat,

"I am a minister of the court, and I put my ministers before myself. Just now, I believed Wang Junkuo's Miao Yan, and thought that he was really wronged, and I defended him for the sake of justice, but now it seems that it is all nonsense."

This remark made other ministers feel embarrassing. Even Wei Zheng admired Gao Shilian from the bottom of his heart. It was really shameless. This remark not only got rid of his suspicion, but also improved his image by the way.

It's enough to be a good official who hates evil for no personal gain.

Lin Yu nodded appreciatively,

"Not bad, not bad, he is a good official, the emperor can have an official like you to give advice, why worry about the people in the world not being happy?"

Gao Shilian cupped his hands and faced Li Shimin,

"This is the way of being a minister, and I dare not abandon it. What's more, the emperor is a sage king, and we must follow it sincerely. Let the people live and work in peace and contentment is our pursuit."

After everyone heard this, they were almost sick. They not only praised themselves, but also flattered the emperor, and at the same time praised all the ministers.This means, high, high, high.

But what a fucking shame.

Lin Yu applauded,

"Very good, so do you think so too?"

All answered with one voice,

"Exactly!"

"Then let me ask one last time, those who attended Wang Junkuo's birthday banquet raised your right hand high!"

None of the people present raised their hands, and even buried their heads very low.
