Chapter 1201 Jade Pendant
Wei Yijie is the one with the most guilty conscience.
If Fang Jun can really get away with it, others will probably be working in vain, and loss will be inevitable, but they won't suffer much loss. But he was different. When Fang Jun glared at him just now, the unabashed threats and the angry fire in his eyes made him tremble. He knew that as long as Fang Jun could be reinstated, the first thing to do would be to retaliate against him immediately!
Revenge from Fang Jun...
Even the prince can't resist it!
Although he didn't know what Princess Changle's trump card was to exonerate Fang Jun, Wei Yijie felt that he couldn't just sit back and wait for death. It was a safe move to find a way to silence Princess Changle's words.
Wei Yijie's mind was spinning rapidly, his eyes were rolling, and he suddenly said: "Although His Highness is a noble and noble person, the national laws are majestic and the laws are ruthless. Even Your Highness cannot be trusted to talk nonsense and obstruct the administration of justice. Since Your Highness wants to do something for Fang Jun, If you want to prove it, you must provide conclusive evidence. Otherwise, if you just rely on selfish motives and talk freely, it will make things difficult for our ministers..."
Everyone in the hall immediately looked at Wei Yijie with admiration!
This is well said!
The first half of this nonsense is nonsense. The laws of the country are majestic and the rules are ruthless. Even if Princess Changle gave false testimony, what can you do to her? She is just a princess who lives in the palace and has no official position. The most important thing is that your Majesty will issue a few orders...
Considering how doting His Majesty is to His Highness, how could he be willing to say even a harsh word?
And the second half is the key!
Want to exonerate Fang Jun...
Just based on selfishness and talking nonsense...
Doesn't this give people a hint that Princess Changle just stood up to testify for Fang Jun because of her personal affair? Moreover, there is no evidence at all and she is just relying on her status as a princess...
If these words spread, Princess Changle will be disgraced, and the royal family will also be disgraced!
It is simply a big joke that Her Majesty the Princess gave perjury to obstruct justice for the sake of personal affairs...
Liu Jie almost wanted to jump up and yell at Wei Yijie for being sinister and dirty!
Can you say that?
Let me put it this way, if Princess Changle is timid and thin-skinned, she will have to give up!
But he couldn't interrupt, it wasn't appropriate to say anything at this time...
Princess Changle bit her lip, her face was a little pale, and she seemed to be weighing it in her mind. Then she hesitated for a moment and said softly: "I am not testifying for Fang Jun. I don't know whether Fang Jun killed anyone or not."
Wei Yijie let out a long sigh...
As long as you are afraid, don't think that you can do whatever you want just because you are a princess!
Even if you are a princess, you can't stand the rumors. You yourself are shameless, are you going to lose His Majesty’s face too?
Linghu Defen also looked happy.
Sun Fujia, Li Xiaogong and others frowned slightly. This Wei Yijie was really insidious and actually trapped Princess Changle with his words.
I thought that the appearance of Princess Changle could bring about a change in the case, but now it seems that Her Highness may not be able to say anything...
Fang Jun was also speechless with a dark face.
I thought you were a life-saving Bodhisattva, but who knew you were sent by a monkey...
Your Highness, where did you get into this?
Just when everyone had different thoughts, they heard Princess Changle's clear voice continuing softly, "...I came here to explain one thing. The evidence in this case came from Jinyang The jade pendant that the princess gave to Fang Jun is actually... two identical pieces!"
"Ouch!"
"What?"
"How can there be two?"
"So that's it!"
As Princess Changle's words fell, there was an uproar in the lobby of the Ministry of Justice!
Originally, the most critical evidence in Fang Jun's case was the jade pendant that appeared in the hands of the deceased Chang Sun Dan. Cheng Wuting stole it and was intercepted by the Ministry of Punishments officer. Although Fang Jun claimed that he had always worn the jade pendant, he had no idea why it appeared at the scene of the murder. , it’s also true that everyone can’t argue but it’s unclear...
Who knew there would be such a turn!
If it is true that there are two identical jade pendants as Princess Changle said, then it is not just a matter of Fang Jun being acquitted, this case is also a typical case of frame-up!
Fang Jun is the son of Jing Zhaoyin, the emperor's consort, and the prime minister. What kind of person dares to trap him?
And what kind of person has the ability to almost succeed in committing a crime?
The most important thing is that after the death of eldest Sun Dan, his brother Sun Jun went to Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment to sue Fang Jun. He made stern words and vowed to hold Fang Jun accountable...
Was it because the Changsun family knew about Changsun Dan's death in advance, but they chose to use the agency to frame Fang Jun, or was Changsun Dan's death simply a set-up... He killed a disciple and then framed him as a political opponent?
It’s scary to think about it!
Fang Jun stared blankly at Princess Changle's flawless profile with wide eyes, and suddenly slapped his thigh!
Mother!
So that’s it!
There are two identical jade pendants?
His mind was spinning, thinking about what had passed before and after. The murderer must have put another jade pendant into Chang Sun Dan's hand after killing him. Cheng Wuting found this jade pendant when he was investigating the scene. Not knowing what happened, he stole it in panic, but fell into the murderer's plan...
When Fang Jun was detained in the Criminal Department, his jade pendants were taken away. Two jade pendants could be used to steal a dragon and turn a phoenix into a phoenix. Therefore, when Liu Dewei took the jade pendant to His Majesty Li Er for verification, the jade pendant belonged to Fang Jun, and His Majesty Li Er naturally recognized it.
However, His Majesty Li Er did not know that there were actually two jade pendants. He was also puzzled and unable to exonerate Fang Jun. That’s why we ignore mistakes and ask Fang Jun to plead guilty in order to implicate the people behind the entire layout...
But the problem came again.
Why doesn't even His Majesty Li Er know that there are two identical jade pendants, but Princess Changle does?
Liu Dewei also had this doubt: "Excuse me, Your Highness, why are you so sure that the two jade pendants are exactly the same?"
All the officials in the hall had this question.
Some officials close to Fang Jun, such as Li Xiaogong, really hope that Princess Changle can confirm it. As long as there are really two jade pendants, although it still cannot exonerate Fang Jun, it can at least prove that there is something hidden in the case.
Liu Dewei and other emperor's cronies also hoped that Fang Jun would be freed from guilt.
His Majesty Li Er's decree was based on the fact that Fang Jun could not escape the crime, so he had to do it as a last resort. If Fang Jun can get away with it, His Majesty will naturally be happy!
Princess Changle said calmly: "Because these two jade pendants... belong to the eldest grandson's family!"
"Ouch!"
There was another uproar in the hall.
Is it the property of the eldest grandson?
So does that mean...if there are really two identical jade pendants, the one in Changsun Dan's hand was stuffed into it by someone from the Changsun family when he died?
Are the same people fighting against each other, or are they fighting each other?
So shocking!
Liu Dewei asked: "Your Highness, maybe you are sure?"
Princess Changle hesitated a little...
She mustered up the courage to stand in the lobby of the Ministry of Justice today. After all, what she wanted to prove was related to the eldest grandson's family. Changsun's family was not only her mother's family, but also her husband's family. The relationship was complicated and deeply involved.
In order to testify for Fang Jun and identify the Changsun family, the smart Princess Changle naturally knew what the consequences would be.
Princess Changle, who is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, will not back down.
Even if she has not made peace with her eldest grandson now, she will still stand up! Princess Changle didn't know whether Fang Jun killed Changsun Dan. She only knew that there were two identical jade pendants, and Changsun Chong must have done something dirty among them. That was enough!
Be cautious and upright, stick to your heart, this is Princess Li Lizhi of Changle...
She nodded lightly, and her voice was clear and affirmative: "I am sure."
Liu Dewei took a deep breath and continued to ask: "Even so, please tell me in detail why there are two jade pendants. Have you seen it with your own eyes, or is there any evidence to prove it?"
Princess Changle said in a clear voice: "This jade pendant is an heirloom of the eldest grandson's family. When my mother, Queen Wende, got married, she had a piece as a dowry. After her mother's funeral, her father gave it to her younger sister, Princess Jinyang, and then Jin Princess Yang gave it to Fang Jun... and the other piece was kept by her uncle Zhao Guogong and handed over to Changsun Chong when I... married Changsun Chong. "
Changsun Chong!
Changsun Chong was actually involved?
Everyone in the hall looked at each other.
It seems to be getting more complicated...(End of Chapter)
