The Head of the Supreme Court was Zhou Xisheng, a stubborn old man.
Of course, he was also a civil official. If he was allowed to try the case, Tian Ergeng would be finished.
Therefore, all the civil officials stood up and loudly pleaded," Your Majesty, please hand Tian Ergeng over to the Supreme Court for trial!”
"Your Majesty, if we don't punish them severely and follow the example of our superiors, the country will be ruined!”
"Yes, Your Majesty. King Zhou even emphasized the law back then..."
Alright, this made Wu Yunqing worse than King Zhou!
Wu Yunqing didn't know if Tian Ergeng had raped a girl, but he knew that Tian Ergeng was definitely not innocent.
Wei Zhongxian's lackey, Cui Chengxiu, knew this as well. He immediately said," Your Majesty, Lord Tian is an important official of the imperial court. You can't try him just because of a small matter!”
Tian Ji, Wu Chunfu, Li Kuilong, Ni Wenhuan, and the other members of the Five Tigers also came out to object.
They all glared at the civil officials, wishing they could bite them to death!
Wu Yunqing suddenly remembered that in the movies of his later life, the most important thing for the emperor to control his subordinates was to maintain balance, and the emperor was the referee.
Looking at the people below, Wu Yunqing suddenly understood a lot.
Wei Zhongxian was too powerful now. If he didn't suppress him, he might endanger the emperor!
9,900 years old!
Wu Yunqing cleared his throat and said," Alright, the innocent know their place. I can't listen to your one-sided story.
Tian Ergeng, go to the Supreme Court and defend yourself!”
Tian Ergeng's face turned ashen when he heard this. However, since the Emperor had said so, he could only listen.
"Your Majesty is wise!"”
Wu Yunqing ignored them. Most of these people were not good people.
He flicked his sleeves and left.
Xiao Dezi shouted from behind," Retreat!”
"Farewell, Your Majesty!"
Wei Zhongxian did not go to court because the Emperor had asked him to deal with the matters of the shrine. Moreover, the East Chamber was the Emperor's servant and could not go to court unless specially summoned.
The Commander of the Brocade Guards was still a second-grade official, which was different from the East Chamber.
Eunuchs were eunuchs. No matter how powerful they were, they couldn't say it openly unless there was no emperor.
Wei Zhongxian's minions were everywhere, and he also controlled a large number of people in the court, so he quickly knew what had happened.
After thinking for a while, he slapped his thigh." Oh, I almost forgot. His Majesty is a person without a mind of his own!”
"No, I want to see His Majesty!"
After Wei Zhongxian finished speaking, he hurried to the palace. However, when he arrived, he was told that the Emperor was doing carpentry and did not want to see anyone.
"Hmph, how dare you. Do you want to die?”Wei Zhongxian stared at Xiao Dezi and said.
Xiao Dezi was so frightened that he trembled." Ancestor, it's not that I didn't want to report it, but His Majesty really said so…"
"Hmph, get out of the way. I'll go in myself!”
Wei Zhongxian pushed Xiao Dezi to the side and entered the hall.
However, as soon as Wei Zhongxian entered, he heard an angry shout from inside." Bastard, you're bothering me again!"”
Then, a black shadow flew over.
Wei Zhongxian exclaimed as his forehead was hit.
Fortunately, it was only a piece of wood. If it was a stone, it would be over.
Even so, Wei Zhongxian was in great pain." Oh my, Your Majesty, it's me!”
"So it's you, old thing. You came just in time. Come and see what this one has made.”Wu Yunqing smiled and took out his work to show off.
Because of the Luban axe, Wu Yunqing's speed of making things was many times faster.
There was a row of wooden knives on the ground, all of which were his masterpieces in the past two days.
Of course, what he was pursuing now was speed, so he didn't have those exquisite patterns.
When Wei Zhongxian saw this, the corners of his mouth twitched. Although the designs on the ground were not bad, they were very rough. The craftsmanship could only be said to be inferior to ordinary.
However, he still quickly said," Aiya, Your Majesty's craftsmanship has improved. It's simply to the point of being too skillful!
Returning to simplicity, truly returning to simplicity!”
"Oh, how do you mean?”Wu Yunqing didn't seem to notice that Wei Zhongxian was lying against his conscience.
Wei Zhongxian rolled his eyes, trying to find some merits." Ahem, Your Majesty, look at this. It's no longer decorated with those beautiful patterns.
After all, a sword was a sharp weapon for killing, not something that women played with. Without those patterns, it would appear even more murderous!”
Wei Zhongxian tried his best to make it up. Wu Yunqing seemed to be very proud and nodded slightly." Yes, what else?”
There was more?
Wei Zhongxian felt bitter in his heart and could only continue to make up stories." Cough, cough. Your Majesty's knife skills are really soaring. Look at this line. It's so smooth and flawless!”
Wasn't it done in one go? The Luban Axe was extremely sharp, and with its special attributes, it was extremely useful for processing wood!
