Chapter 493

The heavenly palace, the former cabinet.

"About the pre imperial trial five days later..."

The cold looking Eckhardt II suddenly stopped and glanced at his cabinet ministers: "why, it seems that you have something to say?"

There was a dead silence in the solemn room, and there was no sound except that his majesty knocked on the table.

Several cabinet ministers with nervous expressions looked at each other, and their eyes involuntarily turned to the two vacant seats... The former royal cabinet, which was originally very "streamlined", is now even smaller and pitiful.

"Cough... Indeed, your majesty."

Metney Leopold, the seal minister closest to Eckhart II, coughed gently twice and looked around at the only cabinet ministers around him: "I think... If it's just to try the death of Lord siscott chann... It's too much to use the way of pre imperial trial."

"Mettner, what the hell do you want?"

Church judge teres luff's eyes were cold: "we're talking about siscott chann, the Earl of the Empire, the former chancellor of the exchequer!"

"The siscott chann who was sitting among us a month ago!"

"You said... Too much?!"

Facing the rebuke of the church judge, metterne, the seal minister with a slight frown, did not refute anything.

"If it's just an ordinary murder, involving cabinet ministers and earls of the Empire, the trial before the imperial court should take place." mettner spoke softly, and his slightly hoarse voice could not hear the joys and sorrows: "but for some well-known reasons... This case has become the source of the unrest in the imperial capital in recent times."

"As his Majesty's courtiers, we must handle this matter as carefully as possible and eliminate the danger of riots and riots in the bud... As for the pre imperial trial, this kind of publicity can only further stimulate the emotions of those people."

"We should use a more rational way instead of blindly complying with everyone's requests."

The church judge snorted coldly and looked very dismissive.

"Reason?"

"Now the whole emperor's eyes are staring at the judgment of Lusaka kovo! Do you want us to be rational at this time? Metterne, do you want to watch people rush into the sky palace and ask your majesty to give them a statement?!"

"As far as I know, many of the 'people' you refer to are now flying the flag of the Holy Cross, and even many priests and priests have participated in it?"

Mettner's voice was very light, just like the whisper of the old man when chatting: "maybe Lord teres, who yearns for justice and the voice of the people, thinks that the church can represent the people of the Empire."

"Bang --!"

The church judge clapped his hands on the table, got up and almost jumped in front of metterne!

"Why, the seal minister is going to impeach me!"

Mettner, who did not change his face, nodded slightly, and still could not see happiness, anger, sadness and joy in his eyes.

A moment later.

Eckhardt II gently knocked on the table, and his red pupils narrowed into a seam, as if he were meditating.

"So... The opinion of the church judges is to hold a pre imperial trial and respond to the voice of the people; while the seal minister believes that we must act cautiously and deal with the case low-key."

His majesty raised his head and his red pupil glittered with a strange luster: "let's listen to Lord Victor Seuss again. After all... He is the one who really has to bear the final responsibility."

At that moment, all eyes focused on victor.

The former chief justice, who was already in a state of joy and anger, nodded slightly and his eyes were motionless. His clear eyes formed the most vivid inverse ratio with his stiff face:

"I don't agree with the church judge, but... I agree with him."

Mettner frowned unconsciously and sighed slightly.

"The significance of the death of Lord siscott chann has gone beyond the whole case itself..." Victor looked solemn and looked more and more dignified: "more importantly, lusack kovo himself is not just a problem of this case."

"If this matter is dealt with in a low-key way, not to mention whether it will be as excited as the church judge said, but also to turn the opportunity that could have established the prestige of the law of the saxophone empire into a private conspiracy."

"It's definitely not a good proposal to think about how to calm the incident and pursue stability."

Victor said silently, "but I'm not against the seal minister... As mettner said, meeting the people's requirements at any cost... Is definitely not the right move."

"Of course, there is the most important point... The pre imperial trial in five days is no secret in the imperial capital; if you openly repent at this time... The result will only be worse!"

"Your Majesty, I am not in favor of or against the 'voice of the people', but this kind of thing should not exist in the laws of the empire from the beginning... There is absolutely no justice in a court that will be controlled by external forces!"

As the voice fell, Victor glanced at the remaining three.

The seal ministers and church judges were completely unmoved.

As for the former military secretary, Severin desallion... Victor did not expect, and no one expected any support from this man.

From beginning to end, he supported only his majesty Eckhart II.

"A court that is not moved by external forces... It's interesting."

The church judge looked at him coldly and did not hesitate to sneer: "it seems that 'justice' has become a more noble and sacred existence in your mouth."

"The concepts of the two are different. Sometimes the so-called 'justice' is not absolute justice, but the benefit of the majority," Victor interrupted him impolitely.

"Disagree! If it is not for justice, faith and the voice of the people, what is the meaning of your so-called justice?!"

"So that the people can live in an empire ruled by law rather than power, law-abiding people can get their due power, and lawbreakers can be punished. This is the meaning of 'justice'!"

"In that case, why did you allow his highness Brandon's wizard adviser to collect evidence everywhere in an attempt to overturn the case of Lusaka kovo?"

The dismissive church judge looked down and looked even worse: "don't you know that this man's crime has reached the point of innumerable and heinous?!"

"Until the final trial is decided, no one is guilty." Victor's voice is low. "What's more, there is no law expressly stating that prisoners are not allowed to be cleared for him!"

"Even the whole empire found him guilty?!"

"Especially all the people in the imperial capital found him guilty!"

Victor suddenly raised his head: "the court that will be controlled by external forces... Is absolutely not fair!"

"And if justice is lost... The law of the Empire will lose all the meaning of its existence!"

The two of them are tit for tat, and their eyes are cold!

Under the unyielding eyes of the former chief justice, the church judge raised his eyebrows as if he were trying to restrain himself.

The seal minister metterne Leopold, who sighed in a low voice, looked dim and glanced slightly at his Majesty the supreme emperor.

Eckhardt II leaned back in his chair with his fingers crossed and his face expressionless.

Mettner frowned slightly, and the uneasiness in her heart became stronger and stronger.

Thinking of his highness Brandon's wizard adviser and the candidate for Chancellor of the exchequer decided by his majesty as soon as possible... He always felt that today's situation was what his majesty wanted to see.

But for what?

Holding a large-scale pre imperial trial may temporarily calm the people's restlessness, but it will also make the result unpredictable... If a judgment is made, there is no room for mitigation.

The Holy Cross Church, the aristocrats of conservative factions... Looking at these people who tried to kill Lusaka kovo, the seal minister always felt a creepy sense of oppression.

These people... Are all the strongest supporters of crown prince Connor.

Is it your Majesty's intention to

"It seems that my cabinet is in favor of the Royal trial."

"Well, then we will use this trial... To prove the justice of the imperial law to the people of sakran."

"Since they want to know the result so much..."

"I'll give them an explanation!"
