    "Lord Qiu. Brother Yuewen."

    While Qiu Shoudao was thinking, Ming Zhiping, Minister of Rites, had already returned.

    Qiu Shoudao shook his hands and clasped his fists together: "Master Ming."

    Yuewen Qianshan nodded at Ming Zhiping, without saying much.

    "Your Majesty's word of mouth."

    A group of people around kneeled down quickly, including Meng Xia, Qiu Shoudao and Yuewen Qianshan.

    "Chunwei committed a murder, a heinous crime, and provoked the emperor's prestige. The Ministry of Criminal Justice is ordered to investigate and arrest the real culprit. In addition, Chunwei is suspended, and all personnel are not allowed to enter or leave."

    "The minister obeys the order."

    Ming Zhiping Xuanwan's complexion was not very good either. Emperor Yuan Jing's actions were undoubtedly biased towards the King of Qin. Everyone knew that Dali Temple supported the prince, and the Ministry of Punishment supported the King of Qin.

    This time, Emperor Yuan Jing did not let Dali Temple intervene, which was not good for the prince.  Ming Zhiping sighed slightly, he wouldn't blame himself for the prince's behavior, but after all he was responsible for his ineffective supervision.

    Yuewen Qianshan was different. Hearing that Emperor Yuan Jing had excluded him from the Dali Temple and let the Ministry of Criminal Justice be in charge of the trial of the case, he was in a bad mood. He immediately stepped forward and secretly pulled Ming Zhiping's lapel and asked,

    "Your Majesty didn't say that we should be accompanied by Dali Temple for the review?"

    Although Ming Zhiping was also dissatisfied with His Majesty's bias towards King Qin, he was not as restless as Yuewen Qianshan. Facing his friend's doubts, Ming Zhiping replied patiently: "Your Majesty is furious, let the Ministry of Justice quickly investigate  The case did not say how Dali Temple is.¡±

    "Did you hear that, Mr. Yuewen? Your Majesty asked the Ministry of Criminal Justice to investigate, so you should stop obstructing the official's handling of the case."

    Qiu Shoudao was very satisfied with His Majesty's arrangement, and with the support of Emperor Yuan Jing, he had an idea in his heart.

    Meng Xia was listening to the three of them fighting their battles. Although he didn't know the attitudes of Yuewen Qianshan and Ming Zhiping, but this Qiu Shoudao's attitude was very clear in Meng Xia's heart.  It was Meng Yu's son who showed a trace of disgust. Meng Xia knew that if the Ministry of Criminal Justice were to investigate this case, he would not be able to please him.

    Turning his eyes, Meng Xia instantly had a countermeasure, and immediately stood up and said,

    "Master Yuewen, the students have a message."

    "I'm waiting to talk, how can you interrupt me wantonly!"

    Qiu Shoudao turned his head away, his eyes widened, and he pressed down on Meng Xia with a strong official authority.

    I didn't think about my attitude towards Meng Xia before, but after receiving the oral order from Emperor Yuan Jing, Qiu Shoudao had already made a decision.

    The official authority of a second-rank official is extremely strong, especially this one is still the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, in charge of punishment.  With this official power coming, Meng Xia only felt the pressure around him increased greatly, and he had hallucinations in front of his eyes. Various punishments from the Ministry of Punishment, such as water torture, fire torture, Ling Chi, breaking the stick, etc., seemed to be imposed on him.

    This was the first time Meng Xia felt fear. Even though Meng Xia was mentally tough, he still felt the fear, not physically, but trembling in the heart.

    The awe-inspiring righteousness in his chest seemed to sense Meng Xia's situation at the moment, and a cool air slowly spread from his chest, making Meng Xia feel lighter around him. Although the pressure was still there, at least the great terror that enveloped his heart could be relieved a bit.

    "Lord Qiu!"

    Yuewen Qianshan broke Qiu Shoudao's authority with a loud shout.

    Once the surrounding pressure dissipated, Meng Xia suddenly supported his knees to prevent himself from collapsing. In fact, it only took a moment, and the sweat on Meng Xia's body had already wetted his underwear.

    "Lord Qiu has such a great official authority, you won't let this junior just want to say something?"

    Qiu Shoudao snorted coldly,

    "This person is a suspect in this case, so it's natural for me to deal with it, so I don't need Mr. Yuewen to worry about it."

    Although Meng Xia was very uncomfortable being oppressed by the official authority just now, he knew that if he didn't fight for himself at this moment, when Yuewen Qianshan and Ming Zhiping left, he would be manipulated by Qiu Shoudao at will.  Meng Xia will not do things that are entrusted to others.

    "Lord Qiu, the student just wants to say something. Even if the adult regards the student as a suspect, he must give the student a chance to defend himself."

    Qiu Shoudao pondered for a moment, then said, "Go ahead."

    Of course he wasn't moved by Meng Xia's words, but he considered that there were such students around him, so he couldn't make it too embarrassing, and it wouldn't look good to spread it in the future, after all, urban Confucian students.

    "Master Yuewen, although His Majesty asked the Ministry of Criminal Justice to accept the case, it didn't say that you can't monitor it!"

    When Meng Xia's words were ordinary, Qiu Shoudao said in secret: "Shut up, Shuzi!"

    However, it is obvious that he said this sentence too late, Meng Xia has already finished speaking, Qiu Shoudao gasped.?, just about to make a move, Yuewen Qianshan has already stopped Meng Xia and him.

    No wonder Qiu Shoudao was angry. Originally, Emperor Yuan Jing ordered him that the Ministry of Criminal Justice could try the case alone. He did not mention Dali Temple. It was true that he did not intend to let Dali Temple participate in the case. However, Meng Xia's words were not wrong, and Dali Temple did have supervision.  Power, even if Dali Temple is ignored by Emperor Yuan Jing, Dali Temple can still exercise supervisory power.

    Just now, Yuewen Qianshan was impatient and didn't think of this. After all, he has been used to obedience in the court all year round. When he heard the oral order, the first time he heard the oral order, what Yuewen Qianshan thought of was that Emperor Yuanjing would put their Dali Temple aside, but Meng Xia  The sentence pointed to him, even if Emperor Yuan Jing didn't let Dali Temple intervene, he could still use the supervisory power of Dali Temple.  In this way, although the prince's side suffered some losses, it would not cause too much loss.

    "Lord Qiu, what this son said is not bad. Our Dali Temple does have the right to supervise. Even if His Majesty asks the Ministry of Criminal Justice to investigate this case, our Dali Temple can still supervise this case. I believe His Majesty will not say anything more. So we still  Follow the trial procedure, after all, it is important to catch the real murderer, what do you think?"

    Although Yuewen Qianshan was inferior to Qiu Shoudao, he still refused to give in to Qiu Shoudao's official authority. He firmly guarded Meng Xia behind him, and at the same time pointed to Ming Zhiping with his eyes.

    "Lord Qiu's case is naturally easy to handle, but I believe that with the help of Dali Temple, the case will only be solved faster, so that there will be an explanation before His Majesty."

    Ming Zhiping knew his old partner too well, and he could understand the other party's meaning with just one look. Yuewen Qianshan obviously didn't pester Qiu Shoudao here because of party issues.  It was more like defending the student behind him. According to Qiu Shoudao, this student was still a suspect in this case.

    Qiu Shoudao saw that the two were singing together, so he held him there, clenched his fists tightly. This case is an excellent opportunity to attack the prince's party, and it can also disgust that reckless man. If he can't seize this opportunity, he will really  Is not reconciled.

    "My lords don't have to worry about what I do. Lord Yuewen, you have also seen the information about the deceased just now, and you have also read the deceased's room. The murder weapon is the candlestick in the student's room. What do you think?  If you want to intervene in this case, I really don't understand, so let's get out of here quickly!"

    Qiu Shoudao's last sentence has already used the official authority, and it is fully exerted.  Although Yuewen Qianshan is the Minister of Dali Temple, his official rank is inferior to him. Qiu Shoudao believes that if Ming Zhiping does not make a move, Yuewen Qianshan alone will not be able to withstand him.

    Meng Xia was protected by Yuewen Qianshan, and he saw that the air around Yuewen Qianshan seemed to be frozen in water, and the coercion had reached the point where it could be seen with the naked eye.

    "Hey, the old man is old, and it stands to reason that he can't bear Lord Qiu's official authority, but since this matter happened today, the old man still wants to take care of it!"
