Madam, protect me!

Chapter 257 Like son, like father

Han Dynasty Palace.

King Han looked straight at Li Qian.

He found that he still underestimated his son.

He underestimated his successes and failures.

Not only did he take the initiative to provoke Li Xuanjing's family, which led to his revenge, he also lost the only gold medal for immunity from death in the short distance from the palace to Dali Temple.

Can such a thing be lost?

Why didn't he lose himself?

But right now, there's no point in blaming him. What's important is getting the death-free gold medal back.

Li Qian said that the gold medal might have fallen to the palace.

The King of Han immediately summoned all the servants in the palace to inquire about the whereabouts of the gold medal, but no one admitted that they had picked up the gold medal.

He sent people to search all the places in the palace very carefully, but still found nothing.

All servants in the palace have been strictly screened at all levels, and there is no need to doubt their loyalty.

It is impossible for this gold medal to fall into the palace.

In the main hall, Li Qian looked confused and murmured: "This is impossible. Apart from the palace and the carriage, there is Dali Temple. Could it be that it was lost in Dali Temple? But I have looked for Dali Temple and there is also No……"

Dali Temple is Li Xuanjing's territory. If it falls in Dali Temple, it will be impossible to recover this gold medal.

King Han finally couldn't hold back the anger in his heart, pointed at Li Qian's forehead, and said angrily: "I provoke Li Xuanjing by overestimating my own capabilities. Even if I give you a gold medal for immunity from death, you can lose it. Tell me what you can do..."

Jing Zhaoyin took the initiative to advise: "Your Majesty, please calm down. The most important thing now is to rescue the Wang family's young master. Let's think of other ways."

The King of Han thought for a while and said: "I will go to Zhongshu Province first to see if they can do anything. If it doesn't work, I will ask my father for a gold medal to avoid death..."

The most troublesome thing about this matter is that this is an ordinary murder case, which happens to be within the scope of authority of Dali Temple. It simply fell into the hands of Li Xuanjing, and he could not get Zongzheng Temple to intervene.

If there is still room for change in this matter, it can only be given by the two prime ministers.

The Wang family is not only important to the Han Palace, but also to the imperial court. I believe that the imperial court is unwilling to antagonize the Wang family.

If Zhongshu Sheng doesn't agree, there is one last option.

Even the father must consider the feelings of the Wang family.

After a while.

Zhongshu Province.

The King of Han arrived in person, and the two ministers of Zhongshu personally greeted him. After inviting him into a government office, the left minister of Zhongshu respectfully said: "I wonder if His Highness the King of Han is here. What orders do you have?"

The matter was urgent, so the King of Han got straight to the point and explained his intention.

When the two ministers of Zhongshu heard this, they were both stunned.

Dali Temple captured the young master of the Wang family in Jinyang and sentenced him to death. The King of Han hoped that the three provinces would issue an edict to be lenient to the Wang family's son...

Legally speaking, this was inappropriate.

But looking at the overall situation, the three provinces also have reasons to be more liberal.

The Jinyang Wang family is a wealthy family that has been passed down for thousands of years. It has a profound heritage. If you can't offend, try not to offend.

But the problem is that yesterday, Li Xuanjing's relative acted bravely and accidentally killed someone. The two prime ministers jointly issued an edict, ordering Yushitai, Jingzhao Mansion, and the Ministry of Punishment to investigate strictly...

Today, a relative of the King of Han deliberately beat someone to death, and he actually wanted the three provinces to issue an edict to spare him.

He didn't take Li Xuanjing seriously at all.

If Li Xuanjing dares to issue this edict, he will arrest officials from the three provinces and commit suicide.

The kind who can't complain even if they're fucked.

Both of them were old foxes who had been officials for many years, and they quickly thought of something.

Dali Temple did not say anything about this case at the time.

Why did you suddenly get into trouble today?

This is obviously aimed at the Han Palace.

It's fair to say that he killed an official from the Han Dynasty's camp and planted his cronies.

Killing Wang Heng would do no good to Li Xuanjing and King Chun.

With his uninterested and uninterested nature, it is unlikely that he would do such a thing.

The two of them looked at King Han with suspicious eyes. Could it be that King Han was behind the case yesterday?

Although no evidence was found, the murder case yesterday was indeed somewhat unusual.

The perpetrators of these two cases...

One is the brother-in-law of the Crown Prince of Han.

One is the sister-in-law of Li Xuanjing's son.

There was only one day between them. If there was no relationship between them, few people would believe it.

You provoked others first, and now they want to take revenge, so the three provinces have no reason to intervene.

Not long after, the King of Han came out of Zhongshu Province.

Not surprisingly, Zhongshu Province rejected his request.

He also knew in his heart that if it hadn't been for what happened yesterday, today's excessive request might still have room for negotiation. However, the traitor's behavior obviously angered Li Xuanjing, and Zhongshu Sheng did not want to get into this muddy water.

After leaving Zhongshu Province, he did not return to the palace, but walked straight into the palace.

After standing in front of a deep palace for a long time, a figure slowly walked out of the palace, handed him a palm-sized brocade box, and said in a high-pitched and harsh voice: "His Royal Highness, Your Majesty said , those aristocratic families did not take the imperial court seriously because they controlled the place, and pardoned their capital crimes. It seemed that the imperial court was afraid of them. This kind of thing happened only this time and will not happen in the future..."

The King of Han stretched out his hand to take the brocade box and said respectfully: "I sincerely follow my father's teachings."

The eunuch shook off the fly whisk in his hand, turned around and walked into the palace.

King Han opened the brocade box and looked at it. When he saw the gold medal for immunity from death inside, he was finally relieved.

He put the brocade box in his arms, left the palace and got on the carriage, saying, "Go to the Dali Temple."

This time, he planned to go in person.

In the Dali Temple, the verdict on Wang Heng had already been announced.

Although the Prince of Han said that he would bring the gold medal of immunity from death, he had been gone for so long and never came back, so the Dali Temple would certainly not wait for him.

The King of Han, led by an official of the Dali Temple, went straight to the Temple of the Ministers.

Li Xuanjing put down the file in his hand, stood up and bowed to him, and asked: "Your Highness, how come you have time to come to the Dali Temple?"

The King of Han said calmly: "Lord Li, I won't beat around the bush. Wang Heng is the legitimate son of the Jinyang Wang family. If the court kills him, it will definitely be hostile to the Jinyang Wang family. I hope you can consider the overall situation and release Wang Heng. I promise you that I will let him return to Jinyang immediately and never set foot in Chang'an again..."

Li Xuanjing said with a serious face: "Your Highness, be careful with your words. The duty of the Dali Temple is to maintain the dignity of the court's laws. If the children of aristocratic families break the law, they must also accept the punishment of the law. This Daxia belongs to the Li family, not the Wang family. Could it be that the court is afraid of their Wang family?"

The King of Han did not speak.

He was not speechless because of what Li Xuanjing said.

He just couldn't understand how people could be so shameless?

Why didn't he mention the law when his son killed someone?

I thought it would be best if I could do without the death-free gold medal.

But Li Xuanjing was stubborn and extremely shameless. I was afraid that I couldn't save the death-free gold medal.

He really didn't want to talk to such a shameless person. He took out the brocade box from his arms and said, "Okay, okay, you should let him go after seeing the death-free gold medal, right?"

Li Xuanjing nodded and said, "If your highness has the death-free gold medal, you can take him away."

The King of Han opened the brocade box and wanted to say something, but his throat seemed to be blocked by something and he couldn't say anything.

The brocade box was empty.

The death-free gold medal was gone!

He had always carried this brocade box with him. Now the box was still there, but the gold medal was gone!

The first time was a coincidence.

How could the second time be a coincidence?

He suddenly looked at Li Xuanjing and asked, "Are you playing tricks?"

Li Xuanjing looked at him in confusion and asked, "What are you talking about, your highness? What tricks? You are holding an empty box, are you teasing me?"

King Han looked at his face and did not see anything unusual on his face.

His mind was blank at this moment.

He couldn't figure out how the gold medal was lost.

No matter how hard he racked his brains, he couldn't think of a way to steal the gold medal from the box.

This incident shocked him even more than Wang Heng was caught.

After a while, he left the Dali Temple and returned to the palace in a daze.

Li Qian came up from a distance and asked, "Father, how is it? Has Wang Heng been rescued?"

King Han shook his head.

Li Qian frowned: "The Secretariat is unwilling to help?"

King Han nodded.

Li Qian asked again: "Didn't the emperor's grandfather give me the golden medal of immunity from death?"

The King of Han said: "He did."

Li Qian breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "Where is the golden medal of immunity from death? Send someone to send it to the Dali Temple."

The King of Han said: "It's lost..."

After a moment, Li Qian looked at the King of Han and said with disappointment: "Father, what's wrong with you? You can lose such an important thing..."
