Chapter 265 Did I perform well? How are you going to praise me tonight?
Their Wang family has only one descendant, and now it’s all over!
"Your Majesty, I am guilty!"
The emperor looked at the Minister of Justice and knelt down, sighing slightly.
The self-exposure has begun again!
Emperor: "My dear Lord Wang, what crime have you committed?"
[Hahaha, Father, has he discovered something? Is he afraid that his family will be extinct?]
The Minister of Justice didn't know what to say.
"Chen...chen..."
The Minister of Justice wiped the sweat from his forehead, made up his mind, and said directly: "Your Majesty, a death row prisoner in the Ministry of Justice has disappeared. I am sending people to look for him. I will report to Your Majesty when we find him!"
The emperor had no choice but to cooperate and asked, "How did the death row prisoner get lost?"
The Minister of Justice said: "Your Majesty, we have not yet found out!"
Emperor: "How could a death row prisoner escape from the Ministry of Justice? What is the purpose of this Ministry of Justice prison?"
The Minister of Justice still didn't have the heart to tell everyone that his son had taken away the death row prisoner, but he also knew that everyone had already known the little princess's thoughts.
The Minister of Justice knelt on the ground and trembled!
The Minister of Justice: "Your Majesty...Your Majesty will definitely investigate thoroughly!"
[This Minister of Justice still has a heart that would sacrifice his own family for the greater good, but can he still kill the prisoner on death row now that he has your child?]
The censor couldn't help but stand up.
"Your Majesty, a while ago, a bloody incident occurred in a brothel in Beijing."
Brothel?
Everyone was stunned. Ever since His Majesty ordered officials not to go to brothels, few people went there, and even if they did, they did it secretly.
Those censors are watching the tea stall in front of the brothel every day, who would dare to do that?
Emperor: "What murder?"
The censor said, "Your Majesty, that woman was the most popular courtesan in a brothel. Her virginity was auctioned off by the brothel's madam and given to a man named Yuwai. Unexpectedly, after Yuwai was imprisoned, rumors of murder surfaced shortly thereafter."
"Afterwards, the courtesan of the brothel was captured by the Ministry of Justice. This woman is the death row inmate who escaped from the Ministry of Justice. However, what I want to talk about today is that before this, I had seen Lord Wang's son go to the brothel and have trysts with this woman many times."
"I suspect that it was Lord Wang's son who helped the condemned prisoner escape. Your Majesty, please change their minds and investigate carefully, lest Lord Wang show any signs of favoritism!"
When the Minister of Justice heard this, his heart finally gave up!
"Your Majesty, I absolutely do not have any intention of protecting anyone. If it was really done by a child, I will definitely handle it impartially!"
Long Xianxian smelled something new and quickly called out 666.
[So this is how the murder happened in the brothel. But this courtesan is really pitiful.]
This courtesan had a rather miserable life. Her family was poor when she was little, so she was sold to a brothel by her parents. Once inside, the brothel owner thought she was pretty and decided to train her to become an oiran. She even hired a dance teacher to teach her.
She was also very hardworking and learned the eighteen kinds of dancing skills. She became a little famous in the capital and became the most popular lady in this brothel. The son of the Minister of Justice often visited her and treated her very well, winning her heart.
[The madam later tried to take the virginity of the courtesan. The courtesan wanted the son of the Minister of Justice to redeem her. However, after she told her family about this, they were adamantly opposed to letting a prostitute into their home. For this reason, they even imprisoned her son.]
After several days of no news, the courtesan was finally dragged out by the madam and auctioned off. The woman was a wealthy official. The woman was quite determined and tried to escape, but the madam caught her and beat her up.
[After receiving a message from the courtesan and hearing that the madam was really going to auction her off, Minister Wang's son scaled the wall and fled. Upon arriving at the brothel, the courtesan had already been taken away by the official. Minister Wang's son rushed to find the courtesan, but upon entering, he saw the courtesan being threatened. Without a word, he engaged in a brawl with the official.]
The courtesan, being old, was no match for Wang Shangshu's son, so he accidentally killed him. Wang Shangshu's son was completely stunned! The courtesan quickly closed the door and told Wang Shangshu's son that she had killed the man and that he had nothing to do with her. She then knocked him unconscious.
[Then, the courtesan was taken away. Since it was a murder case, she was taken directly to the Ministry of Justice!]
When everyone heard this, they never expected that this courtesan was such a kind and loyal person.
The Minister of Justice knelt on the ground in despair.
After the courtesan killed the man, she confessed everything and said that the matter had nothing to do with her son.
So he signed the agreement, and according to the provisions of the Criminal Law, he was directly sentenced to death and executed in the autumn.
It was a done deal, but unexpectedly it was exposed by the little princess.
The emperor did not expect such a thing to happen, but as the biological father of the criminal, it was indeed not appropriate for him to continue the trial.
"The censor is right. We should leave this matter to the Supreme Court."
The Dali Temple Minister stood up and said, "Yes, Your Majesty!"
The Minister of Justice stumbled to his feet, feeling as if the sky was falling.
"What were you thinking, old man? They were a good couple. Even though she was a prostitute, she never overstepped the boundaries. She only sold her art, not her body. She was also very pretty. Yet you insisted on breaking them up. Now look what happened!"
"However, Old Man Wang, you should hurry home and take a look. They are trying to elope now, and they are already at the city gate. If they really run away, it will be a more serious crime."
[Although your son may not be able to survive, your grandson can still be saved! ]
As soon as these words were spoken, the Minister of Justice became stiff.
"Your Majesty, I know where the condemned prisoners are. Please grant me permission to capture them now!"
The emperor thought about it and nodded, thinking that there was some human connection involved.
"Go!"
Then the Dali Temple Minister also stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I will go and take a look too!"
Then, the two of them left quickly.
[This Minister of War seems to know that it was his son who did it! ]
Everyone couldn't help but sigh. The Wang family is a single-line family. I wonder if Shangshu Wang's son can survive?
Next, the emperor talked about the welcoming ceremony for the Eastern Expedition Army and then dismissed the court.
After the court session, the emperor took Long Xianxian away.
Some people ran out quickly, hoping to catch the hot melons.
But Hua Rong came directly to Jiang Si.
"Master Jiang, shall we go to the armory now?"
Jiang Si: “Okay!”
Hua Rong put one hand on Jiang Si's shoulder, which made someone grit his teeth.
The Second Prince came up to the Fourth Prince and said, "Fourth Prince, it's not that I didn't remind you, but your princess is not like other people. Some women like her, so you have to keep a close eye on her!"
The fourth prince snorted coldly: "Second brother, don't talk about me, you should also keep an eye on your princess!"
At this time, the imperial teacher of Bai Lianhua came to the second prince.
"What are you saying, Fourth Prince? I am devoted to the Second Prince. Please don't slander me!"
After saying this, the Imperial Master took the Second Prince's hand without caring about other people's opinions.
This scene made the Fourth Prince even angrier!
So he chased after him immediately!
The second prince burst out laughing.
The Imperial Master looked at the Second Prince and leaned forward, "Did I perform well? How will you praise me tonight?"
The second prince's face turned red!
"Ahem...um, let's go home first, I have something to tell you!"
