Chapter 122 is already under trial

Xu Tianming took up his post as soon as he arrived at the Yushitai, led dozens of bodyguards given to him by the eldest princess, rode fast horses, and rushed to the Ministry of Punishment.

After a stick of incense, he arrived at the gate of the vermilion lacquer of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

There are heavy guards outside the door, and there are two rows of armored soldiers.

As soon as Xu Tianming stepped forward, a young military officer at the head shouted at him loudly: "The Ministry of Criminal Justice is ordered to investigate the case. Anyone who trespasses in the Ministry of Criminal Justice and obstructs the case will be killed!"

Behind him, dozens of soldiers held down the handle of the knife.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Xu Tianming narrowed his eyes, thinking that the eldest princess really guessed right.

The criminal department is keeping the suspect who took away the magic crystal, Wu Youliang, the servant of the Ministry of Industry.

And behind the Ministry of Punishment is Prime Minister Jiang Houlu.

A current prime minister can use the power of the entire Ministry of Punishment to protect his cronies, which shows how powerful he is.

When the limelight is over and the Ministry of Criminal Justice releases him, no one can do anything to Wu Youliang.

That's the benefit of joining a party.

It's good to enjoy the shade under the big tree.
Xu Tianming thought for a while, and took out the jade token: "I am the supervisory censor, and I am ordered by the eldest princess to investigate the case."

The young officer looked at the token and sneered: "Jiang Zhongtang has an order that no one is allowed to enter the yamen of the Ministry of Punishment. Anyone who trespasses will be killed without mercy!"

"Sure enough, it was Jiang Houlu who did it"

Xu Tianming thought about it, and looked at the young officer with a frown: "You have thought about it."

The young officer grinned, and drew his saber to face each other: "Why, you are a mere eighth-rank official, how dare you challenge Jiang Zhongtang? How dare you kill someone at the mouth of the criminal department?"

The armored guards also drew out their sabers one after another, with solemn expressions, trying to frighten Xu Tianming with their stern aura.

Their meaning is also obvious: what are you?Dare to be presumptuous here?
At this moment, three options appeared in front of Xu Tianming.

[Option [-]: Let it go and leave.Obtain reward: Tianxuan Jue (Earth Rank Low Grade)]

[Option [-]: Keep a low voice, try to communicate and enter the yamen of the Ministry of Punishment.Obtain reward: Swallowing Heaven Jue (Xuan Rank Middle Grade)]

[Option 1: Kill him.Obtain reward: random attribute +[-]]

'That's easy. '

Xu Tianming immediately stepped forward without saying a word.

Seeing a flash of cold light, Xu Tianming had already passed the young officer. He stopped at the gate of the yamen, shook the blood on the knife, and then made a movement of closing the knife.

The young officer's body softened and he fell to the ground.

[Options completed, reward: strength +1]

This scene happened so suddenly that shock appeared on everyone's faces.

Unexpectedly, the people sent by the eldest princess would be so decisive.
Dare to commit crimes in the street at the entrance of the criminal department in full view, this is simply slapping the criminal department in the face and Jiang Zhongtang in the face!

The soldiers all looked at Xu Tianming as if they were facing an enemy, and their expressions became tense.

"This officer is ordered to investigate the case. Anyone who dares to stop him will be killed without mercy." Xu Tianming said lightly, and then swept the crowd with a sharp gaze.

"Who else?"

Forced by Xu Tianming's intimidation, the leaderless soldiers retreated after looking at each other in blank dismay.

Xu Tianming led someone into the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

"Xu Yushi, are you going too far in doing this?" A senior guard of the eldest princess couldn't help asking aloud as he rushed into the dark cell.

Xu Tianming replied with a smile.

"Is there anything wrong with it? Your Majesty asked the three divisions to jointly investigate the case. If he obstructed me, he was disobeying the imperial decree. I beheaded him on behalf of Your Majesty. This is a good thing that pleases everyone."

Hearing what Xu Tianming said, the guard immediately shut his mouth.

He understood that Xu Tianming was undoubtedly making trouble for himself by doing so.

But is Xu Tianming afraid?

He is really not afraid, if he wants to investigate this case within three months, he has to speed up the progress, and the Ministry of Criminal Affairs will be in the way. If he does not kill someone to gain power, he will encounter more troubles than this in the future.

Unsurprisingly.

When the suspect Wu Youliang was found, he was sleeping soundly on a large velvet bed in a luxurious single room.

"Copy it back!" Xu Tianming directly kicked the lock of the cell, kicked open the door of the cell, slipped Wu Youliang out, and asked his subordinates to tie him up.

Wu Youliang's side face was pressed against the wet floor. He looked at Xu Tianming and said angrily, "Who are you? How dare you arrest me? Don't you know who my backer is?"

Xu Tianming was condescending, and chuckled: "I don't care who your backer is? You are a suspect, and I have to interrogate you today!"

As soon as the words fell, there was a loud noise outside the door.

"Where did the wild dogs come from, dare to act recklessly in the yamen of the Ministry of Punishment!"

From the promenade came a man in a purple official uniform, with a mustache on his face, and was angrily leading someone in.

This person is the minister of punishment, Liu Yunxi.

"Lord Liu, save me!" Wu Youliang shouted when he saw the rescuers coming.

Liu Yunxi looked over when he heard the sound, and when he saw Wu Youliang being captured, he showed displeasure on his face, and then his eyes fell on Xu Tianming.

"Who are you? Our criminal department is interrogating prisoners. What are you doing?"

Xu Tianming took out the emerald token again: "At the order of Princess Chang, I want to interrogate the suspect Wu Youliang."

After hearing this, Liu Yunxi was a little puzzled, when did the eldest princess act so forcefully.

Actually sent someone to break into the yamen of the Ministry of Punishment?
Just when Liu Yunxi was puzzled, an attendant entered the door and said a few words beside Liu Yunxi's ear.

Liu Yunxi's expression changed drastically. He pointed at Xu Tianming and yelled, "Son, you dare to kill people in our Ministry of Criminal Justice! It's absolutely lawless! Someone, come and arrest him!"

Afterwards, the group of yamen servants behind Liu Yunxi all surrounded and trapped Xu Tianming and others.

Seeing this situation, Wu Youliang taunted Xu Tianming: "Hahaha! Be sensible, let me go quickly. If you want to take action against you, you have to see who is behind you!"

Seeing that a suspect could be so unscrupulous, the guards brought by Xu Tianming were really angry and helpless.

But there is no way, Liu Yunxi is the servant of the Ministry of Punishment, his official rank is as high as the third rank, and Xu Tianming is only a supervisory official, a mere eighth rank sesame official.
This level of officialdom crushes people to death, Xu Tianming simply does not have the ability to confront Liu Yunxi head-on.

But just when everyone wanted to catch them without a fight.

Xu Tianming took out a knife from nowhere and put it on Liu Yunxi's neck.

"If you don't want him to die, back down!"
