Chapter 836 The Final Fight (Part 2)

Gao Gong's memorial was a conspiracy. He avoided the real crimes of Wang Jin and others, but instead grasped Long Qing's mentality of reshaping the image of a filial son. He firmly considered the name behind the late emperor and hoped that the emperor would not kill these alchemists. If anyone had to issue another objection, he would be labeled as a smear of the royal dignity and would definitely lose his skin even if he did not die.

After entering the country, Longqing was shocked and asked the court to re-prepare the judgment.

This time, Gao Gong no longer hides behind the scenes, but puts down the heavy work at hand and comes to Chaofang to join the three of them, including Máokai, Sun Piyang, and Zhao Zhenji, and jointly agree on a verdict against Wang Jin and others.

máokai first briefly summarized the case, and then gave his own suggestions softly: "Since Wang Jin and six others did not have the fact that they had 'reckless things', there was no question of regicide. And their actions were all imitating the tricks of the famous alchemists Shao Yuanjie, Tao Zhongwen and others, and they should be regarded as accomplices..." After explaining their attitude, the six alchemists on trial were respectively convicted according to the degree of harm. The mildest ones were demoted to the people and sent back to their hometowns, and the severe ones were organized by themselves, and the family members who had been exiled should also be exempted from being released.

After saying that, máokai looked quietly at Gao Gong and Zhao Zhenji. He knew that his opinion was irrelevant, the key was what opinions these two people really thought.

"Máobutang is very skillful," Gao Gong always took the initiative and said: "His opinion is perfect, I think it can be judged according to this."

"I don't agree!" Zhao Zhenji, who had been silent for the past few days, finally spoke out: "According to the "Da Ming Law", what should the ruthless people of the Gu Huo king do? "

"Chun." máo Kai swallowed and spitted.

"What should we do if we forcefully destroy hundreds of houses and spend a million taels of national treasury?" Zhao Zhenji said lightly.

"Chun." máokai was struggling.

"What should we do if the treasures hidden in the palace are embezzled 200,000 taels of public funds?" Zhao Zhenji asked afterwards.

"Chun..." máokai could only answer for the third time.

"Then I don't understand..." Zhao Zhenji spread his hands and said, "Why do you suggest that none of these alchemists die? Could it be that these people are your relatives?"

"Ge Lao is kidding," Máo Kai smiled bitterly, "How could I have such an unlucky relative?"

"Oh, I understand?" Zhao Zhenji sneered: "It turns out that they did not refine the pill and did not have time to poison the late emperor to death, so they made contributions, right?"

"This is ridiculous..." máokai said with a bitter smile on his face even more.

"Is it more ridiculous than your verdict?!" Zhao Zhenji slapped the table hard and said, "My surname is máo, do you still have the national law in your eyes!"

máokai is also an old minister, but he had relied on Yan Song back then, so he was never taken seriously by Zhao Zhenji. At this moment, he was scolded so hard that he didn't dare to scold him back, so he could only keep looking at Gao Gong... It means, the one who asked us to listen to you, you have to make the decision for us now.
