"How to judge Zhao Han?"
Li Boyan took a sip of tea, chuckled and said, "I won't bother Shilang Tan with this matter."
"It's just a suspect. The officer can just find anyone to interrogate him.”
After hearing what Li Boyan said, Tan Yuan’s face looked a little unhappy.
As an official from a noble family, of course he also wanted Zhao Han to be brought to justice, but Li Boyan was his immediate boss, so he couldn't say more.
Tan Yuan just sneered and said: "Your Majesty, Shangshu, has one suspect at a time, but I have never seen a suspect live in such a luxurious cell."
He had already visited Zhao Han in the prison. The jails in the Criminal Department basically look the same.
Except for the shabby ones where the felons live, the other cells are pretty much the same.
But Zhao Han lived in the cleanest cell, and there were people who provided him with conveniences, including food and drink.
Li Boyan looked a little unhappy and said: "Can a cell like that be called luxurious? Shilang Tan is a little too lenient."
Hearing this, Tan Yuan did not give in, and said with cold eyes: "Then I hope that Lord Shangshu can handle the case impartially and follow the procedures."
"The lower official must participate in the interrogation of the case, never Let no one interfere with this matter.”
After all, if the procedures are followed, this Zhao Han will also be a dead person.
Tan Yuan did not think that Zhao Han must die, but he had to pay the price.
What's more, we can't let these poor families step on the heads of aristocratic families.
Therefore, he must participate in the interrogation of this case.
However, Li Boyan said protectively: "Shilang Tan is a little too arbitrary. From what you say, it seems that Zhao Han killed Huang Junfeng?"
"But according to this book As far as the officials know, Zhao Han did not kill him at first, and Huang Junfeng did not die on the spot. He even rested at home for two days. "
"Don't you think Huang Junfeng's death is strange? It’s better to die sooner than later, but it’s so ridiculous to die at this time.”
“It’s been two or three days, but it’s ridiculous to still say that the cause of death was because of Zhao Han. Someone must be secretly doing it. Did something!”
Li Boyan knew that many people did not want Zhao Han to live.
He even boldly guessed that these people who were doing things in secret at least wanted Huang Junfeng's death in exchange for Zhao Han's life.
The court has been turbulent recently, and many forces are secretly fighting each other.
Of course, the most important thing is that they are divided into aristocratic families and poor families. As a poor family, he naturally wants to save Zhao Han's life.
At the same time, take this opportunity to do some good for yourself.
"Master Shangshu! How can you protect the suspect?!"
But Li Boyan's words completely angered Tan Yuan, and he angrily accused: "You are exonerating the suspect! "
"In the final analysis, it is not because Zhao Han has taken refuge with the second prince, but he has the backing of the second prince. You are clearly making excuses for him."
"The Huang family is also first-rate in the capital. Family, isn’t the reason why Huang Junfeng survived because he had something that could save his life? Moreover, the Huang family doesn’t lack life-saving elixirs. Could it be that they can’t extend Huang Junfeng’s life for two days?”
“More What's more, Huang Junfeng has never fought with anyone before. As the young master of the Huang family, who would dare to bully him? "
"So it's obviously Zhao Han's sword that killed Huang Junfeng!"
As for what Li Boyan just said, Tan Yuan certainly knew that this was a possibility.
It is also possible that someone did something behind the scenes to deliberately aggravate Huang Junfeng's injuries.
But at this time, are these still important?
Death is a big deal.
Huang Junfeng is the young master of the Huang family, and the Huang family also has a certain status in the capital. Since a life has been caused, it should be punished. At this time, Tan Yuan naturally had to stand in front of fairness, justice and the law and let Zhao Han's life be worth his own.
Especially now, Xingbu has captured Zhao Han, so all the aristocratic families in the capital are watching them, okay?
If Li Boyan wants to bend the law for personal gain and spare Zhao Han's life, then the entire Criminal Department will be impeached by the wealthy families!
"Lord Shangshu! Your Majesty has requested to preside over the trial of this case. Your Majesty assures you that we will enforce the law impartially and will never allow anyone to interfere with the trial."
When he thought of this, Tan Yuan immediately asked Li Boyan to give him the position of chief judge.
"I don't think this is necessary!"
Li Boyan snorted heavily. As a man from a poor family, he did not give Tan Yuan a chance to bargain.
After all, he knew this matter very well. If he really had to follow the procedures, Zhao Han would definitely die.
And he himself naturally wanted to save Zhao Han's life.
Whether it was for the rise of Han Clan or to give face to the second prince and Su Yuanwu, he had to do this.
Tan Yuan, who was obstructing him, would naturally not be able to participate in this case.
"Come here, call the right servant Wang Meng to me!"
Soon, the right servant Wang Meng of the Criminal Department came to the Yamen.
“Why did Lord Shangshu summon my subordinates?”
Wang Meng, like Li Boyan, was born into a poor family.
So when he saw Li Boyan now, he was respectful and kept his posture extremely low.
“I think Wang Shilang already knows about Zhao Han.”
Li Boyan looked at Wang Meng, who nodded with a humble look on his face.
"The lower official already knows, what does Lord Shangshu mean?"
Li Boyan glanced at Tan Yuan again, smiled disdainfully at him, and then said: "In this case, the right servant Wang Meng will be the presiding judge."
"I understand!"
Wang Meng immediately understood what Li Boyan meant.
Tan Yuan next to him was furious at this time and asked hurriedly: "Master Shangshu, what about me?"
"You? Shilang Tan seems to be in a bad state. Otherwise, I will give you You take a day off, you go back and have a good rest, you don’t need to intervene in these cases.”
There was no doubt in Li Boyan's words. After he finished speaking, he no longer wanted to talk to Tan Yuan.
“You want to deprive me of my right to trial?”
When Tan Yuan heard this, he immediately exploded. At this moment, he did not care about the seniority in the officialdom and the relationship between superiors and subordinates.
Logically speaking, such a major case involving human life requires the investigation and handling by the left and right ministers.
But Li Boyan directly deprived Tan Yuan of his right to trial in this case. What was he going to do?
Has it reached this point of bending the law for personal gain?
Tan Yuan suppressed his anger and said: "Master Shangshu, Wang Shilang, this matter is not trivial. I hope you'd better think about it carefully."
"This matter concerns aristocratic families and poor families. Our Criminal Department should enforce the law impartially!"
"Shut up!"
Li Boyan glared directly at Tan Yuan: "You have no place to speak here!"

"Shilang Tan, you'd better pay attention to your identity. Now I have the final say in the Criminal Department. Since I have given you a holiday, please leave the Yamen." (End of Chapter)
