Celebrating more than two years of peace in the world

Chapter 26 Confrontation in front of the palace

After Emperor Qing listened to all the reports, it seemed that the other party's witnesses were there, and it was impossible for Fan Xian to fuss about anything, so he looked at Fan Xian.

But after listening to the whole process, Fan Xian didn't change much in his expression, he still stood in place steadily, with a slight sneer on his face.

"Lord Lian, may I ask you something?" Fan Xian asked.

"Of course." Even the adult's chest almost reached the top of his head.

The Ministry of Punishment has been suppressed by the Overwatch Council for many years, and now he did not expect that the new chief commissioner is such a bully master, so he naturally has a sense of accomplishment in his heart. For a behemoth like the Overwatch Council, the prestige will be lost if it is knocked down by an inch. One zhang, not only the officials inside and outside the palace will be happy, but his status will also rise.

"First, why did the Ministry of Criminal Justice catch the escaped prisoner in the first place?" Fan Xian asked.

"Naturally, the Ministry of Punishment knew that there was a major incident in the Gongyuan on the first day, so it united with the forces of the Jingdu City Guard and dispatched all the servants of the Kyoto Yamen to assist, so that the escaped prisoner could be caught at the first time." Sir Lian proudly said. Said.

Fan Xian said, "That is to say, so many guards suddenly appeared, and then the prisoner ran out suddenly? Are you so lucky that you caught him directly?"

The second prince's hand was almost worn out, so he couldn't come forward to raise something. Once he spoke, he would have nothing to do with this matter. If Fan Xian continued to add fuel to the scene, his father would definitely blame himself.

"Master Fan is just a fledgling, and I don't understand some things very well. Let me, a senior, teach you today." Master Lian said, "Of course after hearing the news, the first day of the test is not over yet, and in the afternoon , My people have all been deployed."

Fan Xian nodded, "That is to say, Lord Lian is such an elite soldier, leading a group of people to watch the thief enter the tribute courtyard and burn down the examination room, and then kill him and arrest him. Is that so?"

Master Lian looked at Fan Xian in astonishment, "You..."

"Or...the Lord Lian sent people to burn down the house and kill people?" Fan Xian continued to speculate.

Sir Lian was shocked, he didn't expect Fan Xian's entry point to be here.

"Fan Xian, don't mess around. Now that people have stolen the money, all the crimes are pointed at you. You want to entrust others into the water. This kind of trick is too low-level." The young minister of Dali Temple said angrily.

"Since you said that the stolen goods were taken together, why don't you bring the criminal here." Fan Xian said.

The two looked at each other.

Emperor Qing saw some turning points at the side, and naturally knew that there was something tricky about this matter, so he gave the Eunuch Hou who looked at him at the side. The eunuch was already on good terms with Fan Xian, and he didn't remind the two adults. Hanging his throat directly, "Take someone to commit crimes!"

After the prisoner was brought up, he had never seen such a battle before, and he was scared out of his wits, and immediately bowed to the ground, "Criminals pay homage... See you! Your Majesty!"

Fan Xian walked up to the prisoner and asked, "Now I'm Fengzheng of the Taixue, and I'm an official of the fifth rank. Let me ask you, why do you want to kill people in the Gongyuan?"

"Yes..." the prisoner begged loudly, "My lord, it was Fan Xian. Fan Xian of the Overwatch Council asked me to help him kill a man, because that man had witnessed his cheating process. That man saw Fan Xian and a man named Deng Ziyue's examinees traded test paper content in private!"

"Fan Xian, you can rest..." Mr. Lian was about to speak, but was interrupted by Fan Xian.

"If Fan Xian is really like this, he will definitely be brought to justice!" Fan Xian said loudly, "Are you the killer sent by Fan Xian? If you tell the truth, I will definitely give you a lighter sentence, and the death penalty may be avoided!"

"Yes! Fan Xian sent me!" said the prisoner.

Fan Xian made the most of the pretense of a fox and a tiger, and the majesty behind him was naturally invincible, and he directly frightened this little man to the extreme with his loud voice, and the other party naturally followed the fabricated words.

"I told you personally? How much money did I give you!" Fan Xian asked without stopping.

"Of course I said it myself, and gave me 500 taels of silver!" The prisoner was hurriedly chased away, and said it directly.

Fan Xian turned his head and confessed with both hands, "Your Majesty, the Overwatch Council requests that this person be brought back."

"That's right."

The truth has come out.

The second prince was extremely angry!
Even the adults looked pale.

Fan Xian didn't intend to give up at this point, he turned his head to look at Sir Lian and said, "Does Sir know who the deceased is?"

"..." No one responded.

"It's an examinee named Cai Yu. Because of the fire, the Overwatch Council changed the examinee's examination room round. Who is the prisoner you plan to kill?" Fan Xian asked.

The prisoner thought he was in the stage of torture, and immediately said, "It's a student from Exam Room 87!"

Fan Xian nodded, "Your Majesty, may I ask, what is the name of the deceased on Mr. Lian's file?"

Eunuch Hou took out the file and read aloud, "Zhang Zhiheng."

"That is to say, even my lord didn't even know who the deceased was, so he came here to sue." Fan Xian smiled and shook his head helplessly.

Emperor Qing snorted coldly, stood up and was about to leave.

His anger was palpable, and the officials below were sweating profusely.

The last deceased person, Cai Yu, was the candidate that the second prince tried his best to protect, so he died under his own hands. Now that Fan Xian wanted to detain him for interrogation, this person would be able to confess easily. The truth was only a matter of time.

The second prince was already thinking about how to let this person die.

And Fan Xian, holding a huge bomb, was about to throw it into the muddy water of the capital city. Seeing His Majesty standing up, he saluted with both hands, "Your Majesty, I have important matters to attend to."

Emperor Qing frowned, as if saying in his eyes, you have already won everything, why do you want to kill them all?
Fan Xian didn't stop because of this, and directly lowered his head and said, "About this Chunxi, my servant, as the chief examiner, discovered a major event."

Everyone is creepy!
"Fan Xian..." Master Fang subconsciously looked at the second prince behind him, "You..."

"I have a total of 38 identical test papers in my hands, involving six exams, all of which have a lot of similarities. This matter is probably directly related to the fraud that Dali Temple Shaoqing said." Fan Xian said, "The investigation of this matter has already been carried out, and 38 test papers involve [-] candidates."

Emperor Qing was furious. He pointed at Fan Xian and said, "I will give you three days to thoroughly investigate this matter."

"Your Majesty accepts the decree!" Fan Xian smiled slightly, and before His Majesty left, he walked out of the Taihe Palace.

Seeing the victorious Fan Xian walk out of the hall, Wang Qinian chased after him, "My lord, what's the matter?"

Fan Xian glanced back, smiled, "Let's go, come back triumphantly, I'll treat you to noodles."

"Do you want to add meat?"

"I eat it myself."

"No more."
