After the villain was defeated, she still had power in the government

He looked up at Yu Jiashan and asked, "Lord Yu, I handed the case of Zhao Yong over to you for trial. Have you made any progress?"

Yu Jiashan stepped out and said respectfully, "Everything has been investigated, and Zhao Yong confessed to his crimes."

"Oh? Then how do we judge it?"

Feng Xingjun asked, his tone sounding calm.

Yu Jiashan lowered his eyes and said, "Da Ning puts filial piety first, and the laws of Daning do not clearly stipulate what kind of punishment will be imposed on parents who kill their children.

But the law also contains a paragraph: Anyone who beats his wife will be punished two levels lower than an ordinary person; if she dies, she will be treated as an ordinary person. If a concubine is beaten to the point of breaking or breaking, the wife will be punished two levels lower than an ordinary person. The wife is equal to the husband in terms of body and body, and has the same rights as a child, so she can be punished two levels lower than an ordinary person. If she dies, she will be treated as an ordinary person and will be strangled. If a person kills someone with a blade, he will be beheaded.

The meaning of "equal to the young" in this passage is that the legal status of a wife and a young child is the same, and the law clearly states that if a husband beats his wife to death, he shall be sentenced to hanging. If the murder is intentional, he shall be beheaded.

Since there was no separate crime of father killing his son, Yu Jiashan could only make a presumptive trial based on the law of husband killing his wife.

When Feng Xingjun asked this question, he quickly glanced at Fu Yutang in the front, pondered for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "As an official of the imperial court, Zhao Yong broke the law knowingly and deliberately killed the eldest son Zhao Ye. His crime is extremely serious and he should be beheaded."

Feng Xingjun nodded slightly. He had deliberately handed the case to Yu Jiashan that day in order to examine his ability to handle affairs and his adaptability. At the same time, he also wanted to test whether he could be competent for the post of Jingzhao Yin and become the official who protects the people of the capital.

When facing Zhao Yong, who comes from the same poor family as himself, can he be impartial and fair?

Now it seems, it’s really not bad.

This person is really a rough diamond as Yutang said.

Feng Xingjun was satisfied and said gently, "Hmm," and said gently, "Then let's make the judgment according to what Lord Yu said."

Yu Jiashan responded respectfully, lowered his head and returned to his original position.

Feng Xingjun personally selected several officials he had promoted to fill the vacancies of Qiao Si and others. After confirming that no one had any important matters to report, he announced the adjournment of the court and called Fu Yutang and Feng Xingling to return to the imperial study to discuss the matter of the assassin.

After he left, civil and military officials also left Jingguang Hall one after another.

Shi Boming, a doctor in the Ministry of Personnel, was all smiles, thinking that today was a really good day.

His good friend, Gao Liyan, was promoted from Langzhong of the Ministry of Revenue to Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Revenue, officially replacing He Zhiyong's position.

He was also promoted from a fifth-rank official in the Ministry of Personnel to the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, jumping two levels.

From then on, he finally gained a firm foothold in the court and the capital!

In fact, he was able to adapt to the atmosphere of the court and life in the capital so quickly, all thanks to the advice of his good friends.

Otherwise, with his dull personality, he would have offended people in the first month after being transferred to the capital.

Fortunately, his good friend was kind and willing to help him even though he didn't know him. He quickly stopped him and prevented him from making a big mistake.

At the same time, he also told him the situation in the court very considerately, making him deeply aware that he should not judge things by appearances, and should not listen to one side only.

It turns out that Lord Fu, who has a bad reputation, is actually a fair and honest official, and also a talented and romantic figure!

At that time, Shi Boming was a little skeptical.

But after observing closely for a few months, he found that his friend was not exaggerating.
