Chapter 81: The Dust Settles
After decades of being an official, this is the first time that Qiu Pingzhang has never dared to make a decision when facing a case with conclusive evidence.
The target is the fifth prince.
Could it be that he was really sentenced to death?
"The Emperor arrived-"
Just as hesitated and hesitated, the eunuch Zhao Yao's sharp voice sounded. Qiu Pingzhang, who was startled, quickly stood up from the high position and let him beside him.
When Emperor Lan Chong, dressed in a dragon robe, came out of the back hall, everyone in the audience, including the people outside the hall, knelt down one after another, and then the sound of the mountain cry like a tide of the sea sounded.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
Emperor Lan Chong walked up to the high position, waved his sleeves and sat down: "Flat!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Xu Tian first glanced at the majestic Emperor Lan Chong, then glanced at Qiu Pingzhang beside him, and couldn't help but sigh for Lord Fang Sizun, who was guilty of the fifth prince in the court.
This guy is going to be in trouble.
"The evidence in this case is conclusive. Why did Qiu Aiqing hesitate and refuse to settle the case? Could it be that he wanted to shelter the criminal?"
As soon as Emperor Lan Chong said this, everyone except Prince Xu Tiangong and others were shocked.
Qiu Pingzhang's heart sank to the bottom of the valley.
Jun Wu said that he failed to protect the fifth prince today, and the emperor really wanted to attack him as promised...
The people don't understand it.
Judging from what the Emperor said, is he not going to commit a crime for his son?
"I have been listening carefully just now. The criminal Su Yinzhen sexually assaulted Zeng Fang and killed Zeng Yihuai, a student at Tianzun Martial Arts School. The evidence is conclusive and there is no objection. According to Da Lan's resume, he should be asked to behead him, but he is my emperor..."
As soon as the emperor opened his words, the common people frowned. Before they could criticize him, they heard Emperor Lan Chong continue, "As a descendant of the royal family, he will break the law and be punished first!"
As soon as the words were finished, the crowd immediately cheered.
"The emperor is wise!"
When the fifth prince heard this, he was incredibly cold on the spot. Although he had a premonition that his father would stand up and save his reputation, he still could not accept that the father who loved him so much in the past would really abandon his cruel reality: "Father..."
"Shut up!"
Emperor Lan Chong said sternly, "I don't have a prince like you! Today, in front of the world, I personally order to remove your status as a prince and to kill him on a date. No mistakes will be made! If someone comes, remove his robe for me!"
The purple coat is a symbol of royal honor, and only those in the royal family can wear it. Now that taking off the prince's clothes is equivalent to expelling him from the royal family.
With the emperor's order, the yamen runners could have been fearless and took off the prince's cloak, one left and one right, but they did not dare to act rashly when facing the father, the fifth prince, and obediently allowed the two servants to do it.
"People come, take them down and take them to prison! Wait for the end of the day!"
Emperor Lan Chong said with dignity and dignity.
"Father, no! Father!"
When the two yamen runners were stolen, the fifth prince, who had only white underwear, called out desperately.
"Long live the emperor!"
"Long live the emperor!"
"The emperor destroys his relatives for justice, which is melodious!"
"Mingjun!"
...
At the high position, Emperor Lan Chong, who was praised by everyone, did not feel happy at all. On the contrary, at this moment, his heart was as if he was cut by a knife, his limbs were weak, and his chest was blocked.
Almost fainted!
His heart is so flesh!
Immediately, Emperor Lan Chong said again: "Quo Pingzhang!"
Qiu Pingzhang was so angry that something was wrong, but he ran to the hall honestly and crawled and knelt down: "I'm here!"
