Chapter 38: Judgment (2)

At this time, footsteps and noise came from outside.

Everyone in the hall couldn't help but look out, and Ying Dongjun also looked back.

A group of people rushed in from outside, looking at the ordinary people dressed like ordinary people in Beijing.

Madam Hua frowned and said, "Who are these?"

The Dali Temple Minister was also shocked and stood up and asked the yamen runners outside, "What happened outside? How did these people come in?"

Jin Yiwei Zuolang General Chen Ci strode from outside, first bowed to Yu Shunchen, and then said to the Dali Temple Minister: "Mr. Zeng, just now the decree was sent from the palace, and today's case allowed to be warned. These people rushed in, and because the decree was in front, the people below could not stop it."

The Dali Temple Minister opened his mouth, "This... there is no rule for the trial of the case in Dali Temple."

The commandment is that when the government office is opened, the people are allowed to listen.

The Dali Temple in the Great Sage Dynasty is different from the Beijing government office and the general provincial government office. If there are no special circumstances, the cases of Beijing officials and some people with identities are tried, and the people are not allowed to listen on weekdays.

When Madam Hua heard this, she knew that Empress Dowager Xiao must have taken the opportunity to make Princess Chengping's reputation even worse, so she used this kind of damage.

"Since Dali Temple does not have such rules, it's better not to break the rules at will." Madam Hua said to the Dali Temple Minister with a stern face, "I'd like to invite all the idle people out first before continuing to investigate the case."

The Censor Zhongcheng said, "The commandments are to educate the people. I think this case is very worthy of the people to listen to, so that they can understand what is a forced purchase and sale, so as to avoid being deceived in the future, resulting in the destruction of the family. Moreover, the palace has issued an order, so that they should act according to the order."

The Dali Temple Minister looked at them and then went to see Yu Shunchen, "What do you think?"

Yu Shunchen looked at Ying Dongjun, but saw the princess staring at him as if she was not concerned about her own affairs. When she met his gaze, she smiled sweetly, as if she didn't know the taste of sorrow.

Yu Shunchen calmly looked away, pondered for a moment, and said to the Dali Temple Minister: "Let's close the hall for now."

Madam Hua said, "It's good to get off the hall. I'll report this to the Empress Dowager and see how the Empress Dowager decides."

The Dali Temple Minister breathed a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to agree, the Censor Zhongcheng snorted coldly and looked at Yu Shunchen and said, "I heard that Lord Yu has always been fair, but why did he start to show off his own personal gain today? Could it be that all the rumors in the market are true?"

Yu Shunchen was not angry at all when he heard this. He raised his eyes calmly and asked curiously: "I wonder which rumor Lord Du is referring to?"

Du Zhongsheng's face changed when he heard this. He remembered that there were not only rumors that Yu Shunchen was once the princess's male favorite, but also rumors that Yu Shunchen and the Empress Dowager...

Du Zhongsheng did not expect that Yu Shunchen would dare to mention this matter on his own initiative.

But Yu Shunchen dared, but he didn't. Du Yushi, who had always been ticky, blushed when he was choked.

The Dali Temple Minister was about to take the opportunity to announce the recession, but he heard a chuckle coming from the hall.

Then, Ying Dongjun said in an indifferent tone: "Someone wants to listen to this case. I have never liked to hide things. Unlike some people, they always like to plot against others behind their backs. Although their status is noble, they cannot change their dirty and dark nature, which is extremely disgusting."

Those who understand can guess that Ying Dongjun is scolding Empress Dowager Xiao, but because she did not name her, even Censor Du couldn't participate in her. Censor Du couldn't stand up and say that the princess was scolding the Empress Dowager, right?

Yushi Du held back his anger and sneered: "Since the princess has said that, there is no need to close the house. Let's continue the trial."

Madam Hua looked at Ying Dongjun with disagreement, "Princess!"

Ying Dongjun waved his hand, "I know the nanny's kindness, but there is no need."

Ying Dongjun said to Madam Hua, but his smiley eyes looked at Yu Shunchen.

Yu Shunchen looked away and nodded faintly when the Dali Temple Minister once again gave him a glance of inquiring.

Dali Temple Minister: "Then continue to open the church and allow the people to be warned."

The yamen runners and Jin Yiwei who were guarding the door made way out, allowing the people who were huddling outside to approach. They only maintained order on the side and reminded the people not to make noise or interfere with the trial.

Although Madam Hua was angry at the princess' willful behavior when she saw this, she could not refute the three court officials in the court, so she could only stand aside with a stern face.

The Censor Zhongcheng said, "Where did you just get the trial? Oh, the princess admitted that she bought the Xia family's farm with ten taels of silver twelve years ago."

The people who had just set up a pose to hear the trial were in an uproar. Although they had heard about the case when they were outside, it was different from hearing it in court.

I bought someone’s land and farm for ten taels of silver?

Although the Xia family was not a wealthy family in the capital back then, they were also very wealthy to ordinary people. Some people still remember the fertile fields in the Xia family village that were beyond your sight and the magnificent courtyard.

He was actually bought by Princess Chengping for ten taels of silver?

What is the difference between this and a robber?
