Chapter 132: Become the Minister of Justice (13)
After Xie Lang disappeared from his sight, Xu Guanghai roared to the sky: "Xu Yingqing, you unfilial son, I @@..."
The officials standing aside and watching all this looked at each other in bewilderment. At this time, Li Changzhou also came over and said, "Master Xu, since the minister has entrusted you to me, I cannot be partial and will teach you well. Come on."
Li Changzhou is much younger than Xu Guanghai. He is only 26 years old now. He holds the same official position as Xu Guanghai. Compared with them, I don’t know what Xu Guanghai is thinking.
On the other side, in a study room in the Ministry of Justice, Xie Lang sat at a desk piled with evidence of the crimes of hundreds of officials.
Xie Lang was flipping through a stack of evidence in his hand, which was Xu Guanghai's.
Although Xu Guanghai was only a seventh-rank county magistrate, in the Great Jin Dynasty, the power of a county magistrate was not low.
Especially in the county under his jurisdiction, he can be said to be a local tyrant.
Xu Guanghai was a man who loved beautiful women. Once he took a fancy to a woman, he would forcibly take her away to be his concubine.
The original owner, Xu Yingqing's mother, was taken in as a concubine by Xu Guanghai because she was spotted by him once when she went out.
The original owner’s mother was just the daughter of a merchant. If merchants didn’t fight against officials, how could they resist?
In addition to the original owner's mother, Xu Guanghai also harmed many decent women.
Apart from this, he was a cancer when he was an official. He wantonly plundered the people's wealth and then gave the plundered gold and silver to his superiors. He colluded with officials in the court.
"The Xu family should be executed along with all nine clans."
Xie Lang threw the evidence on the table. In addition to these charges, Xu Guanghai made the most serious mistake, which was offending her.
She is now Xu Yingqing, and Xu Yingqing's mother died because of him, so the hatred of killing his mother is naturally irreconcilable.
Another point is that in the previous life, when Xu Wanxin and the prince colluded to torture the original owner, he was also the mastermind behind the scenes.
In this case, she would kill her own family for the sake of justice and wipe out all nine clans of her own family.
Time passed little by little, and soon it was sunset.
At this time, officials from the Ministry of Justice were leaving their posts one after another, and Xu Guanghai walked out of the Ministry of Justice with a gloomy face.
The officials on the road all looked at him strangely, and then after Xu Guanghai looked over, they pretended they saw nothing and left one after another.
Throughout the day, he didn't know how many times he had been bullied.
He was still bullied by officials younger than him.
Before leaving, Li Changzhou actually said to him, "Master Xu, the Ministry of Justice is in charge of the laws of the world and decides major cases in the world. There must be no mistakes in the records of every case file. You made mistakes today. Since you are not familiar with it on your first day, I will not pursue it. But you'd better correct your attitude. If your attitude is so wrong, how can you be loyal to the country and serve the superiors?"
Damn Li Changzhou, not only did he teach him a lesson, but his voice was so loud that officials nearby could hear it, which really made him lose face.
However, compared to Li Changzhou, he was more jealous of Xie Lang. He was her father, but he actually used Li Changzhou to humiliate him. Is this the attitude of a daughter towards her father?
At this moment, he had already walked out of the door of the Ministry of Justice. A man walked up to him and whispered in his ear: "Master Xu, the prince wants to see you. Please follow me."
Hearing the man's words, Xu Guanghai was instantly delighted.
The prince, yes, the prince, no matter what, the prince is of higher status than that rebellious girl.
Now that Wanxin has won the favor of the prince, she can use the prince's power to eliminate the rebellious girl.
Thinking of this, Xu Guanghai became excited and followed the man to the Prince's Eastern Palace.
At the same time, Xu Mansion.
A Shenlong Guard was reporting something to Xie Lang, and it was about Xu Guanghai going to the Eastern Palace.
After listening to this, Xie Lang waved her hand and asked her to go away. She looked at the teacup in her hand, as if she was in deep thought. Her eyes were deep, like unfathomable dead water, unable to stir up any waves.
"Tomorrow's morning court will be fun."
Xie Lang put down the teacup with a bang, and the water in the cup splashed onto the table. His eyes became sharp.
…………
In the East Palace, in the hall where the prince resides.
Song Chengze sat in the main seat and Xu Wanxin sat in a seat next to him.
After Xu Guanghai was brought in, he knelt down directly in front of Song Chengze and said, "Your Highness, I, Xu Guanghai, pay my respects to the Crown Prince."
"Father-in-law, please excuse me."
Song Chengze walked over and personally helped Xu Guanghai up, his tone very kind.
"You can't do this, Prince. Etiquette cannot be abolished." Xu Guanghai was obviously a little flustered and shook his hands quickly, but was still helped up by Song Chengze.
"What's wrong with that? Wanxin will be my Crown Princess in the future, and you will be my father-in-law. We are all family, and there is no need for family members to be polite to each other."
Song Chengze was very satisfied with Xu Guanghai's attitude. He was the prince, so he could exempt the other party from courtesy, but the other party had to be polite.
Xu Guanghai's behavior and attitude are more in line with a subject. He is unlike Xu Yingqing, who is extremely arrogant and has no regard for him as the crown prince.
When he mentioned Xu Yingqing, he wanted to cut her into pieces.
But it will be soon. As long as her identity as a woman is confirmed and exposed in front of all the civil and military officials in the court tomorrow morning, she will be dead.
He just couldn't believe that his father could still tolerate her.
Xu Guanghai was overjoyed at this time. His daughter was the Crown Princess, which meant he was a royal relative.
If the prince ascends the throne, his daughter will be the queen, and he will be the father-in-law of the country.
The thought of this made him extremely happy in his heart, but he still looked respectful and frightened on the outside.
At this moment, after Song Chengze dismissed the servants, he said to Xu Guanghai: "I heard from Wanxin that Xu Yingqing is a woman dressed as a man. Is her real identity a woman?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Guanghai's pupils suddenly shrank, and he immediately knelt on the ground and spoke to Song Chengze.
"Xu Yingqing... She is indeed my daughter. But she went to take the imperial examination without my knowledge. By the time I realized what was happening, it was too late. Later, she threatened me to give her a false identity. I am guilty, Your Highness, please forgive me..."
"Get up first. I have no intention of punishing you."
After Xu Guanghai stood up, Song Chengze said to him, "Tomorrow morning, I want you to reveal her identity in the court hall and make public her crime of threatening you. As a father, you accuse your daughter of being unfilial and blame her for her crimes. She is unfaithful and unfilial, and she has committed the crime of deceiving the emperor. She must die. I want to see how she can survive this time."
"After eliminating Xu Yingqing, I will marry Wanxin as the Crown Princess."
Song Chengze uttered these words one by one, with an extremely heavy tone. It was obvious that he hated Xie Lang deeply.
"I obey the prince's orders."
Xu Guanghai immediately replied, Xu Yingqing, you rebellious girl, you dare to humiliate your father like this today, so don't blame him for being rude.
"You say this tomorrow..."
After Xu Guanghai agreed, Song Chengze told him some specific details.
The plan against Xie Lang was formed during the discussion between the two.
