The capital city changed overnight.

Originally, the powerful people in the capital, and even the wealthy families and chaebol giants across the country, thought that the struggle between the Xiang family and Chen Ning must have ended with Chen Ning's crushing defeat.

Except for a very few people who know Chen Ning's identity, no one is optimistic about Chen Ning.

But everyone never expected that the decisive battle between the Xiang family and Chen Ning ended with a miserable defeat in the Xiang family.

It is said that when the Xiang family fought against Chen Ning, hundreds of thousands of troops in the entire capital were dispatched, and the Xiang family members were killed and injured.

Even Xiang Cheng himself was directly listed for more than a dozen crimes and was arrested on the spot and handed over to the lord of the country, the cabinet, and the military for handling.

Many important members of the Xiang family were also arrested.

Some members of the Xiang family who were less guilty were released and returned home.

However, after the Xiang family members returned home, they quickly sold all their industries and then closed their doors to thank the guests.

The Xiang family was very secretive about this crushing defeat. No one was willing, and no one dared to mention the duel between the Xiang family and Chen Ning.

Therefore, the circle of powerful people in the capital and even the entire circle of powerful people in China are confused.

Everyone couldn't understand why the Xiang family, which was in full swing, suddenly became beaten to death by Chen Ning and even retired completely.

It seems that the Xiang family was not only defeated, but also defeated so much that Chen Ning didn't even dare to hate him, and he didn't even dare to have the idea of ​​taking revenge.

Many people talked about this after dinner.

Everyone has their own speculations and opinions. The most widely accepted speech is: the Grand Commander was very happy with the Chinese God of War Chen Ning, and the Grand Commander had obtained evidence of Xiang Ge Lao's crimes, so the Grand Commander mobilized all the troops in the capital to help Chen Ning, defeated the Xiang family, and took down the Xiang Lao.

After Mr. Xiang was arrested, he immediately made it to the headlines.

Immediately afterwards, the lord, together with the cabinet and military headquarters, jointly investigated Xiang Cheng's crimes.

After half a month of continuous investigation and interrogation.

In the end, the king, the cabinet and the military jointly investigated Xiang Cheng's criminal behavior, and there was a result.

Xiang Cheng was confirmed to be involved in corruption, bribery, selling official positions, nepotism, abuse of power and involvement in multiple murder cases.

In the end, after joint trial, the king personally convicted: depriving Xiang Cheng of all political rights and sentenced to death.

After Xiang Cheng heard that he was sentenced to death, he showed a mysterious sneer, but he pleaded guilty on the spot and did not apply for an appeal.

Chen Ning attended the trial scene as one of the presiding officials.

Chen Ning saw the mysterious sneer that Xiang Cheng showed after he was sentenced to death.

Chen Ning frowned slightly, a little confused. Why Xiang Cheng could still smile at this time? And seeing Xiang Cheng's sneer did not look like the smile of a loser!

But Xiang Cheng has been sentenced to death.

Xiangcheng and his group have also suffered severe blows, and Xiangcheng no longer has the opportunity to make a comeback in China.

Why, Xiang Cheng smiled so hard that he seemed to have a chance to turn over?

After the trial, Xiang Cheng was imprisoned and was waiting for the execution of the death penalty.

Chen Ning also left the trial site and returned to the Grand Governor's Office.

Late at night, Chen Ning and Song Bingting just fell asleep.

Suddenly, a rapid footstep sound came from outside the door, and then Qin Que's voice came. Qin Que lowered his voice and said, "Grandmaster, report the emergency."

Chen Ning woke up when he heard footsteps coming from outside.

When he heard Qin Que whispering to the door, he had already gotten out of bed with slight movements, put on his clothes without waking his wife up, and carefully opened the door and went out.

Before Qin Que could speak, he said in a deep voice: "Don't wake up the young lady, go to my study to talk."

When he arrived at the study room, Chen Ning sat down and asked, "Tell me, what happened?"

Qin Que hurriedly said: "The prison caught fire, and the fire surged into the sky, burning many guards to death, and more prisoners were burned to death..."

Imperial Prison!

It is a special prison where political criminals are detained, and Xiang Cheng is also detained in the imperial prison.

Chen Ning's face changed slightly when he heard that the Zhao Prison had caught fire: "Xiang Cheng, how is his current situation?"

Qin Que said: "While he was in trouble, he found a burnt corpse. The forensic doctor was working overnight to confirm whether the burnt corpse was Xiang Cheng himself."

Chen Ning couldn't help but think of the mysterious sneer when Xiang Cheng was sentenced to death.

He said coldly: "Don't wait for the forensic doctor to get the result. The burnt corpse is definitely not Xiang Cheng. Xiang Cheng is likely to have been rescued."
