Chapter 963: Dali Temple

u have something to say!" Li Chen said impatiently.Chen Tong hastily said, "Your Highness, in fact, the Dongchang recently discovered that the price of grain among the people has risen sharply...almos...Chapter 963: Dali Temple

Li Yinhu's sudden outburst came as a complete surprise to everyone, and the crowd erupted in gasps.

Some timid people kept retreating, afraid they would be in trouble.

And while San Bao had been by He Shouyi's side all along, he immediately pulled He Shouyi behind him, coldly looking at Li Yinhu as he approached. He said calmly, "King Zhao, the Lord's meaning is to give you some face and let you go back with my servant. Don't make me rip away your last shred of dignity."

Li Yin's canine teeth bared, threatening to split.

He knew that with the Three Treasures present, he couldn't possibly kill He Shouyi.

And in fact, he had never really intended to kill Ho Shouyi from the beginning.

The reason for doing this is to buy time.

He wouldn't believe Zhao Xuan would stand by and watch him be played.

Sure enough, it was just this delay, and the sound of a large number of people arriving followed one after another.

A middle-aged official in court robes arrived at the scene surrounded by attendants.

Sānbǎo looked at the person approaching, his expression calm, but there was a hint of seriousness in his eyes.

The middle-aged man who arrived bowed politely to Sānbǎo and said, "Lord Factory Master, it's been a long time. Your spirits are still high."

"Wang Dairen arrived at just the right time." Sanbao said calmly.

Wang Fuyou smiled faintly and said, "This official has heard that King Zhao walked to Jing Shan with sincerity and filial piety to pray for the emperor's blessings, but something went wrong. So I came to take a look, and unexpectedly, I heard a good show."

"The play is over, so please return home, Wang sir. This humble servant still has matters entrusted by His Highness to attend to," said Sabao.

Wang Fuyou shook his head and said, "My lord, your words are amiss. Since there are suspicions surrounding the death of the Ninth Prince last year, both in terms of reason, morality, and law, this matter should belong to the Dali Temple's investigation. Therefore, I respectfully request that you hand over Dr. He to me for questioning. Additionally, please ask King Zhao to return to the Dali Temple with me to cooperate with the investigation."

Li Yinhu, seeing this, burst into laughter. He looked at Sanbao with a triumphant gleam in his eye and said, "Eunuch, you're probably not going to succeed today."

Ignoring the smug Li Yinhu, Sanzhao said coldly, "When did the Dali Temple dare to interfere in Dongchang's business"

Wang Fuyong's face was slightly sullen and looked unhappy.

The Ministry of Criminal Justice is in charge of punishments throughout the land.

The Dali Temple is similar to a prosecutor's office, responsible for investigating and prosecuting major criminal cases.

There is also the Censorate, which deals with misconduct by civil and military officials.

These three departments can be said to be the top three figures in the Qin court's punishments.

But all of this changed after the establishment of the Dongchang.

The Dongchang ran rampant, while their Dali Temple was almost forgotten.

If this were a case handled by the Dongchang, the Dali Temple wouldn't dare to interfere. But today is different, today he has the support of the cabinet behind him.

Remembering Zhao Xuanji's instructions, Wang Fu straightened his back and said calmly, "The laws of our dynasty are clearly defined. Those who engage in arson, murder, robbery, and other crimes shall be investigated by the Dali Temple for evidence. Only after conclusive proof is obtained will the case be handed over to the Ministry of Punishment for handling. Today's major case falls under the responsibility of our Dali Temple!"

"Could it be that Master Eunuch believes the power of the East Factory surpasses even the laws of the Great Qin"

"The Third Treasure let out a cold snort and said, 'I can't read, I'm no match for your eloquence, Lord Wang. So don't try to talk down to me with all these fancy words, they're all gibberish to me. There's only one thing I understand: whatever His Highness has tasked me with, I will accomplish it no matter what. Anyone who tries to stop me from completing my mission, I will make them pay with their lives!'"
