Chapter 247 Trial ([-])

Han Xuexuan still wanted to argue, but she didn't know where to start. Bai Hua almost blocked the way.

Chu Yuan Pi Dian Pi Dian sent the rope.

Looking at the rope, Han Xuexuan wanted to curse again, but the situation was stronger than others. First, I followed Bai Hua's words and asked for cooperation. This is the head office, right?
We must find out something here in Chuqing.

Bai Hua was right, Wu Jichang died while he was temporarily handling the affairs of the New Lunzhou Council, and he would be the first person to be held accountable, so the blame had to be pinned on someone else!

If you really can't pin Bai Hua on, then point out that Wu Jichang was "misunderstood" by Chu Qing because of "uncontrollable love", and he is dead anyway.

Although Wu Jichang attempted to molested Chu Qing, but Chu Qing harbored a grudge and deliberately murdered him. This motive is valid, and the possibility is very high.

Thinking of this, Han Xueyun immediately opened her mouth: "Wu University..."

"The case of Mr. Wu's death in the line of duty, I will take over!" Song Tingshan, who had been silent for a long time, opened his mouth.

As the Chief Executive of New Lunzhou, it is not a trivial matter that a fourth-rank official of the imperial court died on the territory under his jurisdiction!

What's more, the person who died had the privilege of bypassing the secret investigation department and directly reporting to the emperor for special cases.

Such an important person died in his own state capital, and as the governor of the state, he was the last person to know about it, which can be described as dereliction of duty.

This case must be heard in person!Whoever tries the initiative is in whose hands.

If Chu Qing has little to do with this case, or if she is involved but harmless, then it's okay to help her whitewash the peace;
If there is a direct relationship, or if the involvement is serious, then this official can't cover it up.

This is the conclusion Song Tingshan reached in his silent thinking.

"No! It should be investigated by the official!" Han Xuexuan shouted.

He was shocked by Song Tingshan's words, he can't let other people intervene in this matter, try the case by himself, so that he can push the responsibility to others, and let Song Tingshan have a trial, then he can't get rid of his own responsibility at all.

"Should? What reason?" Song Ting didn't turn his head, but looked slightly sideways at Han Xuexuan.

That tone, that demeanor, is really full of authority.

"This is the matter of the secret investigation department! This is the case of Beizhen Fusi!" Han Xuexuan yelled, "We have the right to arrest, torture, and execute ourselves! Song Tingshan, you have crossed the line!"

"Oh, Mr. Song, this is..." Bai Hua was about to make a "dramatic accent" again.

Wei Chengyi covered Bai Hua's mouth.

The meaning behind this action is: nothing to coax!Don't look at you as a higher official than me, I saved your life, so I can take care of you.

Song Tingshan rolled his eyes to the sky.The boy from the Bai family don't be some kind of deputy, just go home and be a dandy!
Song Tingshan asked slowly: "About the secret investigation department? Mr. Wu is an official of Daxuan! The case of Fusi in Beizhen? Do you believe it?"

He cupped his hands in the direction of the capital again: "Only cases appointed by the emperor, Beizhen Fusi has the right to arrest, torture, and execute on his own. The case of Mr. Wu was appointed by the emperor? Are you able to represent Beizhen Fusi?"

Han Xuexuan was stunned: The news of Wu Jichang's death was only in Xinlunzhou, not in Kyoto.

This Song Tingshan actually cleared up the scope of authority of Beizhen Fusi.

"Master Wu was in an important position and died suddenly. He didn't inform me until now, so there should be no delay. In order to show openness and justice, I will try the case on the spot! Come!" Song Tingshan ordered.

The yamen who accompanied Song Tingshan to deliver the emperor's handbook stepped forward to respond: "My lord!"

"You go back to the Yamen immediately, inform the Tongjuan and Tongzhi, and let everyone who should be there come to the scene, and I will be promoted here! Then order people to surround the mine and Chu's house, including those outside the house!" Song Tingshan sent the Yamen's servants away , and asked Bai Hua: "Master Bai, do you have any objections?"

Bai Hua curled her lips: "No objection!"

This is treating the Chu residence as a court, surrounded by all the insiders and participants, including Song Tingshan himself, and it is fair if it is not aimed at a single person.

Song Tingshan glared at Bai Hua, meaning: What are you talking about?I have to do this even if your father is here!If you are suspended, I will give you back face and ask for your opinion. Who are you pouted for?
Chu Qing looked at Song Tingshan, then at Bai Hua, and Bai Hua was also looking at her. When their eyes met, the two had already had the following "spiritual dialogue"——

Chu Qing: Why do I think Mr. Song is more capable of being an official and has more official authority?
Bai Hua: It's no different from me, he's just older than me, that's all!Just follow me and learn!
Chu Qing: I still think Mr. Song speaks more forcefully.

Bai Hua: You were the one who led me in!

Chu Qing: Cultivation is up to the individual, and I want to learn from Master Song.

"Ahem~" Wei Chengyi looked ahead, coughed quietly and reminded the two bastards: It's almost done!

Chu Yuan shook the rope: "Can I help?"

........................

Soon, the relevant personnel from the state government arrived, even the gavel and the master brought them.

The main hall of Chu's residence was used as the court, and Zhuo Yao led the guards to move tables and chairs, all with joy on their faces.

Song Tingshan didn't understand how Chu Qing managed to reach his current position following this group of bastards.

Since it was a trial, everyone who was present at the time of the case had to be arraigned.

So, even those who were scalded by molten steel until they were inhuman shape but still alive were brought in, followed by doctors invited from the medical clinic.

No matter what, they have to hang their lives and finish the case.

First try these few who are not far from death.

Most of them were Wu Jichang's personal guards, so they were more dedicated than those in the Secret Investigation Division. They suffered heavy casualties, and there were not many left, but the most seriously injured was a subordinate Wu Jichang brought from the Kyoto Secret Investigation Division.

He was the one who recognized the "Princess of Donglun", but because of listening to Feng Renke's words, he poured water on the blast furnace and was seriously injured.

Those who were heavier than him died at that time.

But Feng Renke, after pouring the first bucket of water, immediately turned back to fetch water, left the blast furnace, and escaped disaster.

The agent in Kyoto was the first to be questioned.

"I see... the princess." The face of the man was already sticky, there was not much skin left on the mouth and neck, and there was a big hole in the chest that was bloody and bloody.

Tong Juan put his ear close to his lips, barely able to hear clearly.

Judge: "How do you know it's the princess?"

That person: "She... said...'Department, mold'..."

Judge: "What do you mean?"

A faint gasp.

Tongju: "Speak! What do you mean?"

Tong San: "Then what else do you think makes you sure that you are the princess?"

That person: "The mine...no...women...people..."

The door of the main hall was open, and it was very cold. The man had been panting for a long time, and a slight white breath could be seen from the hole in his chest, just like the breath on the lips of everyone talking at this time.There is a leak.

The man was struggling to breathe, and he was not given much air to breathe. His voice became more and more indistinct: "Her... fellow... shouted:...Your Highness, kill... he".

The judge repeated his words.

This is a strong basis for judgment: there are no women in the mine; she speaks incomprehensible Eastern Analects; her accomplices call her "Your Highness".

The judge: "What else do you know? Say it quickly! Hurry up...My lord, this person is dead!"
