Datang: Integrate three times the combat power of Lv Bu at the beginning

lean less...

Li Daozong picked up the tea in front of him and drank it down, "This...well, everything will be according to what the prince said, and the old minister will do his best to cooperate."

Although Li Daozong refused at first, since he agreed to Li Chengqian, he will definitely go all out. As Li Shimin's veteran, he still has this character.

"Hehe." Li Chengqian said with a smile: "Then I would like to thank my uncle for his great help."

For Li Daozong, Li Chengqian could still reason with him.

"His Royal Highness is serious, let me tell you about this dossier." Li Daozong responded, spreading out the first dossier on the table.

Chapter 89 Two Land Invasion Cases

Li Daozong poured himself a glass of water, took a sip, and said, "This is the six-year case of Wu De. However, the mastermind is still well-clothed and well-fed, and is at large.”

"The most abhorrent thing is that the cultivated land and house of the dead family are still occupied by him."

He spoke with resentment in his words.

Li Daozong is usually upright and upright, but these land invasion cases are like thorns in his heart, which are painful but cannot be removed.

Li Chengqian began to read the files carefully.

[On the ninth day of August in the sixth year of Wude, in Liu Village, Sanli Town, Chang'an City, Liu Sanguang sued Duan Fanglong, the landlord of Chang'an City, for encroaching on his farmland by violent means.

On the second day, the Ministry of Criminal Justice sent people to investigate the case.

Three days later, three members of Liu Sanguang's family were exposed to the wilderness.

On the [-]th, after verification, the evidence was conclusive, and Duan Fanglong, the criminal and the mastermind, was arrested and brought to justice.

On the [-]th, the criminal retracted his confession...

The case was closed, Liu Sanguang owed Duan Fanglong 500 taels of silver, the whole family committed suicide in fear of crime, Duan Fanglong was released without charge, three houses under Liu Sanguang's name, and five acres of cultivated land belonged to Duan Fanglong...]

Li Chengqian's fingers tapped lightly on the table. In a case with conclusive evidence, the case was changed to a verdict based on the criminal's confession.

Such a ridiculous thing, but it really happened, and it happened next to the capital, and the case was judged in the Ministry of Punishment.

Li Chengqian looked at Li Daozong, "What is this case?"

Li Daozong said: "Oh, this is left over from the period of Prince Yin Li Jiancheng. The landlord with this surname has a lot of friendship with Li Yuanji, the king of Qi."

"After the incident, Duan Fanglong asked someone to find Li Yuanji immediately. Unexpectedly, Li Yuanji really helped him. I don't know what method he used. The case was overturned the next day, and the three members of Liu Sanguang's family fell into one. The crime of committing suicide in fear of crime, and Duan Fanglong transformed himself into a victim."

"Hehe, the veteran who was sentenced in this case is really something I have never heard of, and I have never seen anything before."

Speaking of this, Li Daozong laughed helplessly.

Paused...

He continued: "After the old minister took over as Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, just like your thoughts, the first thing he wanted to do was to overturn this ridiculous case and return the deceased's family to their innocence."

"However, His Majesty has just ascended the throne, and his foundation is not stable. After this incident, Duan Fanglong became friends with the five surnames Qiwang crazily. He married the Wang family of Taiyuan and the Cui family of Qinghe respectively. Real money, so that the two can protect themselves.

"Under the protection of these two families, Duan Fanglong's power has grown by leaps and bounds in recent years, and he has become one of the most powerful in Chang'an City."

"The old minister mentioned this case to His Majesty, but His Majesty put it on hold because of the wide-ranging implications of the case."

After listening to Li Daozong's words, Li Chengqian nodded and took out another volume, "What about this volume?"

[On the third day of March in the seventh year of Wude, Zhang Liuren, a commoner in Chang'an City, sued Han Ningde, a landlord, for burning his house, occupying his wife, and occupying his farmland.

On the second day, the Criminal Ministry sent people to investigate the case, and all the witnesses and material evidence were available.

In three days, the criminal Han Ningde was arrested;

On the fourth day, Zhang Liuren died of insanity;

On the [-]th, Zhang Liuren's wife, Mrs. Zhang, died in court;

On the [-]th, Han Ningde retracted his confession...

The case was concluded. Zhang Liuren and his wife used their beauty to seduce Han Ningde and extort money.When the incident came to light, Zhang Liuren burned down the house and falsely accused Han Ningde of occupying his wife and land.

After Han Ningde retracted his confession, the main culprit Zhang Liuren and his wife committed suicide in fear of crime, and the real estate under their name compensated Han Ningde and belonged to him...]

Li Chengqian took a sip of tea, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he could hardly believe it was real.

Such an absurd thing happened in the Xingbu under the feet.

Perhaps when the people from the criminal department were discussing how to reverse the case for Han Ningde, they were sitting in this position.

Snatching someone's wife, destroying their house, swallowing their farmland, and being able to get away with the crime under the conclusive evidence, this is not a simple case of land invasion at all, it is simply murder.

This kind of person, even if Ling Chi is late, it will be difficult to reduce the hatred in Li Chengqian's heart.

"Which important figure is standing behind Han Ningde in this case?" Li Chengqian looked up at Li Daozong.

"This..." Li Daozong said, feeling a little hard to say.

Li Chengqian gave him a confident look, and persuaded him: "Uncle, but it's okay to say."

Li Daozong said: "This Han Ningde is from the Zheng family."

"Huh?" Li Chengqian said indifferently: "Is Mrs. Zheng involved in this land invasion case?"

Li Daozong looked at Li Chengqian with some doubts.

Isn't this Mrs. Zheng one of your subordinates?No look of surprise at all.

Li Daozong replied: "That's not true, but this Han Ningde is a cousin of the Zheng family and has always been on good terms with the Zheng family. This Han Ningde has a deep personal relationship with Zheng Yingjie."

"It doesn't matter." Li Chengqian waved his hand and said, "If someone from the Zheng family is involved, they will be arrested together. Don't worry, uncle, I won't rub the sand in my eyes."

"Not to mention the Zheng family, even if any prince commits a crime, I will arrest you together."

Li Daozong believed what he said.

At the beginning, Li Shimin pleaded with Zhang Liang's adopted son Zhang Yunsheng, but there was a lot of rumors.

Li Chengqian didn't give Li Shimin any face in a daze, and led the white-robed army to Zhang Yunsheng's mansion the next day, and directly executed him on the spot at his home.

Li Daozong cupped his hands and said: "The old minister is worrying too much. This Han Ningde is also quite powerful in Chang'an City. Not only is he related to the Zheng family, but his relationship with Hou Junji is also very good."

"However, Zheng Yingjie and Hou Junji were not sought for this case at the beginning, but Concubine Yin De entrusted Li Jiancheng to supervise it personally."

"It is said that Concubine Yin De once owed Han Ningde a favor."

Li Chengqian was really amused when he heard this. Today he has seen what a nest of snakes and mice is.

What is this all about?

A crown prince, a concubine, and a prince, while not doing their business, actually played secret games in the Ministry of Justice.

Such a solemn and solemn place in the Ministry of Criminal Justice has become a filthy place where a few people shelter criminals, lie to others, and exchange positions.

Li Chengqian said: "Uncle, don't delay this matter. You should immediately send someone to arrest Duan Fanglong and Han Ningde together. These two cases cannot be delayed."

Li Daozong said: "It's His Royal Highness."

After flipping through these two files again.He also made up his mind, no matter what the consequences are, the case will be overturned first.

Paused...

Li Chengqian continued: "You let Su Dingfang lead a hundred white-robed troops to go with the people from the Ministry of Punishment."

Li Chengqian was really worried about letting the people from the Ministry of Punishment go alone, after all, these two people are not just people.

In the next period of time, the Criminal Department will definitely be very busy. If a few people are lost at this time, Li Chengqian is not willing to see it.

"Yes, the old minister will do it now." Li Daozong said, pushed the door and walked out.

Chapter 90 Which criminal does the emperor want to intercede for?

Chang'an City...

palace...

The Imperial Study Room of the Eastern Palace.

Sitting in front of the desk, Li Shimin was greedily chewing the candied fruit brought in from Li Chengqian's residence.

Liu Renyuan whispered from the side: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."

"En?" Li Shimin looked up at him, "Shi Yuan, what did you just say?"

It was said that Liu Renyuan was a little ashamed. Since Li Chengqian joined the government, he has lightened Li Shimin's burden a lot. Recently, he has eaten more food and slept better. Even pastries and dried fruits are in short supply.

Liu Renyuan said: "What I mean is that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has gone to the Ministry of Punishment to take charge of government affairs."

"In charge?" Li Shimin lowered his eyes and said, "Didn't I say that Cheng Qian was asked to assist Li Daozong in handling the land invasion case? Why did he become the in charge officer? Will he handle the case? It's just nonsense."

Li Shimin and Li Daozong have the same thinking. They agree with Li Chengqian's determination, but it doesn't mean they agree with Li Chengqian's ability to overturn the case. After all, the land invasion cases of the Ministry of Criminal Justice are all major cases.

Handling political cases is not the same as handling government affairs and military affairs, and political cases are more complicated.

Although he said at the time that he didn't care about the consequences, his background, or his official position, Li Daozong must have understood his thoughts.

Li Daozong has been Minister of Criminal Affairs for such a long time, which cases should be the main arrest, which cases should be supplemented, who should be severely punished, and who should be persuaded. Li Shimin doesn't need to explain these things to him, he must handle them clearly.

However, if Li Chengqian was in charge of the Ministry of Punishment, it would be a mess. He knew the child so well that he even hated him, let alone any princes, ministers, and relatives of the emperor.

He estimated that even if Li Tai was involved, Li Chengqian would immediately send someone to the palace to arrest Li Tai, not to mention those suspected of trespassing.

Li Shimin frowned, and continued: "How far have they gone now, and what cases are they going to investigate?"

Liu Renyuan faltered and said: "Turn...Turn..."

Li Shimin said displeasedly: "What does it look like to hesitate, tell me!"

"Duan's, Duan Fanglong. Han's, Han Ningde." Liu Renyuan spat out.

Li Shimin stood up, staring at his eyes and said: "What! What nonsense! Does he think that the reason for overturning the case is his passion! He only picks big cases to overturn!"

"What does Li Daozong do to eat? Chengqian is young and ignorant, and he, the minister of the Ministry of punishment, doesn't understand either!"

The reason why he was so excited was not that these two people belonged to him, on the contrary, Li Shimin knew that they had something to do with Prince Yin and King Qi.

But these two people can be regarded as people who know current affairs. After Li Shimin ascended the throne, he took the initiative to hand in a large amount of gold, silver, treasures and food, which relieved a lot of pressure for Li Shimin.

And the case was also committed during the reign of Prince Yin, and the two of them have been doing their duty for the past year, so Li Shimin didn't mention it.

Besides, there are so many land invasion cases accumulated in the past few years, he doesn't care much about these two cases, after all, these two people have helped him.

Liu Renyuan said quietly: "Don't you understand His Royal Highness's temper? Who can stop his decision?"

He thought to himself, let alone Li Daozong, even if you, an old man, come to the prince, if you don't take it seriously, won't you be embarrassed?

Li Shimin said anxiously: "Let's go! Come with me to the Ministry of Punishments. If you are late, something big will happen!"

After a while, Li Shimin hurried out of the palace gate with Liu Renyuan, and went straight to the Ministry of Punishment.

In the past two days, the city of Chang'an was turbulent, but Li Daozong was in charge of the Ministry of Punishment, and Li Chengqian was in charge, so Li Shimin didn't take it too seriously.

Unexpectedly, Li Chengqian took advantage of his inattentiveness.

at the same time.

Li Chengqian was sitting on the futon, flipping through other files.

Soon...

Luo Tong knocked on the door and walked in, "His Royal Highness, the case has been clarified, this is the evidence we collected."

As he spoke, he handed the file to Li Chengqian.

"En." Li Chengqian took it over, "Is the collection process going smoothly? Didn't it startle the snake?"

"Don't worry, His Royal Highness, we will be careful not to leave any clues." Luo Tong said confidently.

Li Chengqian nodded, spread out the file, and looked at it carefully.

Like the information I got, Han Ningde and Duan Fanglong were not as clean as they appeared in the past two years, and they were even worse than Li Chengqian expected.

When Li Shimin first succeeded to the throne, the two donated a large amount of silver and grain to him, helping Li Shimin through a difficult time.

Li Chengqian has already figured out the thoughts of this cheap daddy himself, not to mention that the case was committed during the time of the hidden prince. In order to consolidate the stability of the Tang Dynasty, the cheap daddy also pardoned the old princelings. Wei Zheng is a good example .

Wei Zheng used to be the prince and grand teacher, and he often made tricks for Li Jiancheng to take advantage of his father, and he strongly advocated killing him.

In the end, Daddy Cheap still convinced people with his reasoning, and for the sake of the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, he accepted Wei Zheng as his counselor.

If he wants to touch these two people at this time, I'm afraid Dad Cheap will come to his door.
