Chapter 722: Is the evidence conclusive?(1/2)

 For a moment, several military generals stood up, and Li Ji, Yuchi Gong, Qin Qiong and others agreed.

On the one hand, it is to stand up for Yang Fan, and on the other hand, it is also to make things difficult for these supervisors and censors.

Of course, there is inevitably a dispute between civil and military affairs.

Although the world has not yet been completely peaceful, the war has gradually decreased in the past two years.

The entire empire has stabilized and entered a period of great construction.

In this way, the importance of civil servants gradually became apparent.

After all, fighting and charging on the battlefield was not urgent for the people when the empire was not harmed by the outside world.

Because what the people need most are officials who can improve their lives, not generals who only know how to fight.

As a result, seeing that the lives of military generals and nobles are getting harder, the contradictions between civil and military officials in the court are naturally becoming increasingly irreconcilable.

Now there is a rare opportunity to attack civil officials, so how can the general let it go?

In addition, although Yang Fan is now a civil servant series.

But everyone regards Yang Fan as the successor to the future army.

Furthermore, Yang Fan was also from the army, and his actions were particularly fond of the appetites of these generals.

Naturally, the army conveniently summarized Yang Fan into the group of military generals and nobles.

More importantly, Yang Fan and several military bosses were close friends.

Not to mention Li Ji, Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong and others, they are even half of Yang Fan’s teacher, even the God of War Li Jing.

With such a relationship, several military tycoons naturally stood on Yang Fan's side.

Seeing that Li Er wanted to adopt the opinions of the military officer, Wang Jifeng was a little anxious and kept glanced at Sun Wuji.

Changsun Wuji stood at the top without expression, looking at all sides, and listening to all directions, and naturally saw Wang Jifeng's sign.

After pondering for a moment, Changsun Wuji nodded slightly and stood out of the train.

"I'm going to report to Your Majesty. I think it's the responsibility of the censor. Since so many censors impeached Yang Fan, how can they ignore it?"

"If it is true as Master Shizhong and Duke Lu said, every report on the censor's news must be conclusive, then what is the significance of the report on the censor?"

"If there is evidence, it's better to just let Dali Temple or the Ministry of Justice accept it. Why do you need to impeach it?"

"So, it is still necessary to let Yang Fan return to the capital for review. Please think twice!"

"I'm going to discuss it!"

"Please think twice!"

A large number of civil servants immediately stood up and agreed with Changsun Wuji. It can be seen that Changsun Wuji's appeal is.

Of course, some ministers also made the emperor think twice before acting.

At this moment, Wang Jifeng came out and said, "Your Majesty, I impeached Jiangnan and went to Dadu to say that Yang Fan had privately robbers. Last year, Yang Fan and His Highness the King of Wu were assassinated. According to the investigation by the Ministry of Justice, the person who acted was a Maoliannu from Fusang."

"At that time, Yang Fan captured the Fusang leader, but did not deal with the assassin according to the Tang Dynasty's laws. Instead, he released Maolians back to the Fusang Kingdom."

"Although the lord behind the scenes, Cui, Qinghe, has been punished by law, Yang Fan let go of the assassin who assassinated the royal family and also borrowed the name of going out to sea to fund his weapons."

"From this, we can see that Yang Fan's move was a traitor for the enemy and his intention was to be punished. Now the investigation results have been released. I beg your Majesty to order Dali Temple to take over the review!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the civil and military officials took a breath. Is there anything wrong with this?

Wang Jifeng said it with a name and surname, obviously it was not empty talk.

In the eyes of many people, Yang Fan is about to finish!

The censor and the officials of the Jiangnan gentry almost cheered.

I originally thought that the military would fail today's impeachment again, but I expected that Wang Jifeng would actually bring a big move.

The Ministry of Justice cannot report the news, it must have solid evidence.

Didn’t you hear Wang Jifeng say that the evidence is already in the Ministry of Justice, and that’s the case is as strong as a mountain. No matter how cunning Yang Fan is, he can’t get over it.

The military bosses who were close to Yang Fan shook their heads and sighed.

Why is there such a thing?

They were very sure that as the Minister of Justice, Wang Jifeng dared not speak nonsense.

Otherwise, Dali Temple will find out the authenticity of the matter if it is done with a little investigation.

If Wang Jifeng dares to speak nonsense, it would be a slander of the important officials in the court and deceiving the emperor and the emperor!

Not to mention defeating Yang Fan, even the Wang family in Taiyuan might have to fall into it!

All the civil and military officials in the court had no change in expression at all.

It seems that it is nothing to do with him.

In fact, except for Yang Fan and the Emperor, only Xiao Yu knew the whole story best.

At that time, Yang Fan did take action first and then report, not only hid Maolian, but also let him go.

But the emperor already knew about this and had also been registered by Dali Temple.

As the Minister of Dali Temple, Xiao Yu knew the most.

Moreover, after the Cui family in Qinghe fell, the emperor also ordered the three departments to stop investigating the assassination case.

But unexpectedly, Wang Jifeng did not stop investigating, but instead found the assassinated Maoliannu.

If we say that the power of the Wang family in Taiyuan is indeed powerful, even the Maori slaves who ran to Fusang Kingdom could be found out.

Fortunately, Yang Fan filed the matter of leaving Maoliannu at that time.

At the same time, he also told the emperor about the purpose of cultivating Maori's slaves to become the agent of the Tang Dynasty in Fusang State.

Otherwise, Yang Fan's family could be killed by just taking private assassins and colluding with enemies and treason.

Of course, many court officials didn't know about it.

If the censors just now were just news, they would not be able to do anything to Yang Fan without evidence.

Then what Wang Jifeng threw out at this time was a kingly bomb!

Even Changsun Wuji felt that Yang Fan was powerless to turn things around.

He even longed for the day when his son Changsun Chong returned to Chang'an again.

But what they didn't know was that it was actually very easy to deal with.

If so many ministers impeached Yang Fan just now and even pointed out His Majesty Li Er, he would be a little difficult to make a decision.

After all, in order to stabilize the court situation, the emperor could not make arbitrary decisions and turned a blind eye to the impeachment of the censor.

But now it's completely different!

The assassination case actually gave His Majesty Li Er an opportunity to break the situation.

After all, cases with ironclad evidence are nonsense.

So, who dares to keep holding on to the news of the censors who have no evidence?

Thinking of this, His Majesty Li Er secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

But before Li Er could speak, Huang Luan and other censors could not wait and asked to report: "Your Majesty, if it is said that the impeachment of Yang Fan just now was a matter of hearing the news and there is no conclusive evidence, then the assassination case investigated by Lord Shangshu is involved with Yang Fan. Should Yang Fan be removed from office and investigated, and escorted back to Beijing for review at the same time?"

"I and others agree, please submit your order to thoroughly investigate the case of Yang Fan hiding assassin!"

Many officials in the Tai Chi Hall knelt down and asked for a report.

Even the military bosses such as Cheng Yaojin, who are better than Yang Fan, don’t know how to defend Yang Fan at this time.

Seeing the court officials rising up and demanding that he strictly investigate Yang Fan, His Majesty Li Er was indignant.

These people are simply hateful!

If it weren't for knowing that Yang Fan was not involved in the assassination case, wouldn't these people take advantage of the loophole?

The more he thought about it, the more angry he became. His Majesty Li Er asked angrily: "When Yang Fan and Ke'er were assassinated, the mastermind has found out that it was done by Cui clan in Qinghe. Moreover, Yang Fan was injured more seriously at that time, and he was one of the victims. Why should all the ministers keep this matter tightly?"

Wang Jifeng's face turned solemn, like a messenger of justice, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, your family has rules and the state has national laws. Although Yang Fan was also a victim at that time, Yang Fan hid the assassin. After he let the assassin go, he also funded his weapons, allowing the assassin to become king and dominate in Fusang Kingdom, which was a collaboration with the enemy and treason."

"If Yang Fan is not escorted back to Beijing and thoroughly investigate the matter, it will probably be difficult to convince the public! Please give your Majesty a clear guide!"

"Please give a clear explanation!"

Many court officials quickly joined in, as if Yang Fan had become the worst evil person.

Suppressing the anger in his heart, His Majesty Li Er gritted his teeth and asked, "What if I insist on saying that the assassin has nothing to do with Yang Fan?"

Wang Jifeng and others looked at each other and said with a firm word: "Your Majesty, all the evidence points to Yang Fan hiding the assassin, and even colluding with enemies and treasoning the country. Of course, if Your Majesty must protect Yang Fan, I have nothing to say, but this cannot block the world's long mouth and will damage Your Majesty's wise image."

His Majesty Li Er stood up with a loud voice and said furiously: "Haha, you are really good ministers. You actually consider my reputation!"

Although he was furious when he saw His Majesty Li Er.

But Wang Jifeng and others had no intention of retreating.

After all, they finally seized Yang Fan's handle and had the opportunity to force Yang Fan to a dead end, of course they would not let him go.
