Han Yunong left the main hall and was taken to the side hall. He saw Qin Xiao sitting on a chair waiting, and finally a smile appeared on his lips: "Qin Xiao!"

Qin Xiao was sitting on the chair thoughtfully. When he heard Han Yunong's voice, he turned around and looked over. He immediately stood up and said happily: "Master Captain." He quickly came forward to greet him and asked worriedly: "Are you okay?"

"It's okay." Han Yunong patted Qin Xiao on the shoulder: "I'm sorry for you."

Zhu Dongshan followed behind and said with a smile: "If Qin Xiao hadn't come to the Criminal Department to report the case, it would be difficult for our Criminal Department to intervene in this case. Han Duwei, you really have to thank Qin Xiao." He then said: "You guys are here first.

Just wait, if you need anything, just ask people to come over. After the ministry is finished, they will naturally settle you down."

"Thank you, sir." Han Yunong and Qin Xiao thanked Zhu Dongshan together.

Zhu Dongshan chuckled, turned around and went out.

The two of them sat down in the hall. Qin Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Captain, I'm relieved that you are safe and sound."

"Don't worry. Our trip to Beijing has been finished." Han Yunong said: "I handed the zhezi to Zhu Shilang, and the zhezi was presented to the palace. The saint has already seen it and knows the truth about what happened in Xiling. What should be done

Things have been done, and we don’t have to worry about life or death next.”

Qin Xiao frowned and said, "Sir, is it... that the court still wants to convict us?"

"You don't have to worry. If something happens, I'll just take the responsibility." Han Yunong said, "But now that things have happened, my life and death no longer matter, and the court may not punish me."

"With Fan Shangshu being brought here, I'm afraid the Ministry of War will be in trouble." Qin Xiao said in a low voice: "During the Xiling Mutiny, the Changsheng Army did not leave the border in time. This is a problem with the Ministry of War, and Fan Shangshu cannot escape the blame."

Han Yunong glanced outside the door, winked at Qin Xiao, and shook his head.

Qin Xiao understood the idea heartily.

This is in the Xingbu Yamen. Although there is no one else in the side hall, when speaking in the Xingbu Yamen, you are surrounded by ears and eyes. It is better to be cautious about some words here.

"Do you have the tiger head jade pendant with you?" Han Yunong asked in a low voice.

Qin Xiao nodded and said, "Always carry it with you."

"That's good." Han Yunong said: "We have already reported the military situation in Xiling to the imperial court, but the note submitted to the saint was written by me. It not only reported the military situation in Xiling, but also reported the military situation encountered in the Ministry of War in the past few days.

It is written truthfully on the booklet. The Ministry of Punishment wants to investigate the Ministry of War. As a witness, I will naturally not be able to leave until the case is completed."

Qin Xiao frowned. He used the Ministry of Justice to deal with the Ministry of War just to rescue Han Yunong, but now the situation has become complicated. Although Fan Wenzheng has no chance to attack Han Yunong again, the Ministry of Justice wants to bring down Fan Wenzheng, but Han Yunong becomes

With an important chess piece in the hands of the Ministry of Punishment, it is not known how this case will develop, and Han Yunong's future is even more uncertain.

"But you are not too involved, you just reported the case. I will put my fingerprint on the disappearance case file later, and the disappearance case you were involved in will be closed." Han Yunong said softly: "The Ministry of Punishment has no reason to keep you anymore.

, after you leave the Criminal Department, leave the capital as soon as possible and rush to Woye Town to find General Liu Jingang Liu of Woye Town."

"Going to Woye Town?"

"That's right." Han Yunong nodded slightly, leaned closer to Qin Xiao, and lowered his voice: "Liu Jingang is the general's favorite general. Before the general left Woye Town, he reported to the court and recommended Liu Jingang to take over the post of general guard of Woye Town, so

The troops in Woye Town are now under the command of General Liu. You have the tiger head jade pendant in your hand. When you see General Liu and take out the tiger head jade pendant, General Liu will know that you are one of his own and will naturally place you properly." Raise your hand gently.

Patting on Qin Xiao’s shoulder:

"You have been with me for many years in the Captain's Mansion. You are hard-working and smart. Now that you have arrived in Woye Town, I don't have to worry about you."

Qin Xiao frowned and said: "Captain, if you want to leave, let's go together. You are also a member of the Changsheng Army. When the case here is completed, we will leave Kyoto and go to the border together. Maybe the court will mobilize the Changsheng Army to go out and quell the chaos.

In this way, we will follow General Liu and fight back to Xiling to avenge the general and other brothers."

Han Yunong smiled faintly and said softly: "Of course I want to fight back to Xiling with my brothers, but it is impossible for me to leave Kyoto until this case is completed."

"If you don't leave, I won't leave either." Qin Xiao said firmly.

Han Yunong frowned and said, "Qin Xiao, this is not a discussion with you, but an order from me."

Qin Xiao's lips moved slightly, but no words came out.

When Han Yunong ordered Qin Xiao to leave Kyoto and go to Woye Town, Lu Junzhong was also persuading Fan Wen to be aware of current affairs and become a hero.

"There are twenty-seven members of Fan Butang's family, plus the servants and maids, there should be eighty-six people." Lu Junzhong said with a smile: "Of course, this does not include your relatives and friends. In addition, you have many disciples.

Therefore, officials, if we count them all, there are only five hundred if not one thousand."

Fan Wenzheng stood up suddenly and said sternly: "Lu Junzhong, what do you want to do? Are you going to start a big prison again and want to implicate my family?"

"Whether or not your family members are involved is not up to me, but up to you." Lu Junzhong said calmly: "You and I have made it very clear. You can't save your life. You know what the saint means.

I also understand that I am a biting dog under the sage. Whatever the master wants to do, I will do it for him. Now you and I both know that the sage only needs a confession...your confession!

He raised his hand and pointed at Fan Wenzheng: "As long as you admit the crime, and even take all the blame for the crime that you should and should not have on yourself, the saint is merciful, maybe he will not pursue your family again, and use your life to save hundreds of people."

Damn it, isn’t this deal a good deal?”

Fan Wenzheng sneered: "Do you want me to bear all the blame alone?"

"Actually, I really don't care whether you want to take the blame or not." Lu Junzhong sighed: "Fan Butang should know that what I like is big cases. The more prisoners involved, the more interested I am. If

You refuse to plead guilty and want to spend more time with me. I really want it. I can guarantee that if you stay in the Criminal Department for one more day, there will be more people involved in this case. If you stay for a month, you will be implicated.

If there are not three to four hundred people, then the Ministry of Punishment is incompetent." Seeing that Fan Wenzheng's eyes were showing fear, he smiled and said: "But the saint doesn't want this matter to be too widely involved, so naturally I have to follow the saint's will.

, but if you don’t cooperate, I will force you to go to jail, and I won’t get what you want.”

Fan Wenzheng sat slumped in his chair, his face pale and his whole body weak.

"I know what you are waiting for." Lu Junzhong said: "You just hope that the princess can come forward to save your life, thinking that the princess can say a few good words for you from the saint. But I just said, if you come from a

I wrote a letter to plead guilty at the beginning, but there was still a glimmer of hope. At this point, do you think the princess can still speak for you? Fan Butang, I have been an official in the same dynasty for many years, so I will waste so much time talking to you.

At this point, I won’t persuade you anymore. It’s already getting late, so I’ll arrange for you to stay one night at the Criminal Department. If you can hand over your confession early tomorrow morning, the matter will end here and not involve too many people. Otherwise, I will just

I can handle cases in accordance with the law."

He slowly stood up and ordered: "Come here, take Fan Budang down to rest."

Two officials from the Ministry of Justice came in from outside and walked to Fan Wenzheng.

"By the way, Fan Butang, everyone knows that you have many close friends in the Ministry of War, and you have promoted many of them single-handedly." Lu Junzhong took two steps towards the door, seemed to have thought of something, and turned around and said:

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

"If I were you, I would add the names of a few more officials. This would also be of some benefit to you."

Fan Wenzheng stood up and said, "Don't worry, Lu Budang. If I write a book, someone will naturally be included in it."

"Don't even think about adding the name of Minister Dou Fu to the list." Lu Junzhong smiled and said, "He is a witness, and since he dares to come forward to testify against you, he must be fully prepared in advance."

Fan Wenzheng was stunned.

"The one who really pulled you off this time was not Han Yunong, but Dou Fu." Lu Junzhong sighed: "It's a pity that Fan Butang doesn't employ people well." He shook his head, put his hands behind his back, and walked out of the main hall.

Fan Wenzheng looked at Lu Junzhong's gloomy back, his pupils constricted.

Lu Junzhong came out of the main hall, and Zhu Dongshan had already come forward and whispered: "In the department, what are the arrangements for Han Yunong and the others?"

"Han Yunong and Dou Wei are important witnesses in this case. We have arranged for them to stay in the Ministry of Punishment." Lu Junzhong said softly: "Is Qin Xiao still in the Yamen?"

"He is with Han Yunong." Zhu Dongshan whispered.

A sinister smile appeared on Lu Junzhong's lips: "Qin Xiao is no longer useful. He is of no importance in this case, so we can let him go."

Zhu Dongshan was startled and said cautiously: "Bu Tang, you mean to ask Qin Xiao to leave?"

"Let Han Yunong put his fingerprint on the missing case file and the case is closed. The following cases have nothing to do with Qin Xiao." Lu Junzhong said: "We will keep those who should be kept, and those who should not be kept...

..We'd better send him out." He glanced at Zhu Dongshan with a strange look in his eyes. Zhu Dongshan had been following him for many years and immediately realized that Lu Junzhong had deep intentions in letting Qin Xiao go. He raised his hands and said with a smile: "I'm the official.

Got it, let’s go and settle the disappearance case.”

The procedure for understanding a disappearance case is not complicated.

Zhu Dongshan took the file that had just been recorded during the day and asked Han Yunong and Qin Xiao to be brought to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for litigation. The two of them put their fingerprints on the file. Zhu Dongshan asked the person to put away the file and said with a smile: "This case is not considered a case.

It’s over. Qin Xiao, you can go."

Qin Xiao glanced at Han Yunong, but before asking, Zhu Dongshan already said: "Han Duwei will stay in the Criminal Department for a few more days to help investigate Fan Wenzheng's case, but don't worry, Han Duwei is a witness of our Criminal Department.

Not only will Captain Han's safety be ensured, but he will also have food and clothing to worry about. Fan Wenzheng's case will not drag on for too long. According to my estimation, it will be settled in ten days and a half, so don't worry too much."

Zhu Dongshan told the two of them not to worry too much, but Qin Xiao was worried. Han Yunong said: "Qin Xiao, the case is closed, Mr. Zhu also asked you to leave, so you should leave quickly."

Qin Xiao hesitated for a moment and finally said: "Master Zhu, it's getting late. I live in Sipingfang. It seems...!"

As soon as it gets dark in Kyoto, the 108 squares will be sealed and no one is allowed to leave.

"It's a trivial matter." Zhu Dongshan smiled and said: "I will give you a road sign. With the road sign, you can pass freely without anyone blocking you." Someone signed a road sign and Qin Xiao took it.

, then he bowed his hand to Han Yunong, then saluted Zhu Dongshan, and was immediately sent out of the Yamen of the Ministry of Justice by Zhu Dongshan.

After leaving the Criminal Department, it was not too late now. However, during the Xu period, the singing and dancing bands in Kyoto were busy, but Suzaku Street was deserted.

When I came here today, I was riding a horse and pulling a cart with a big drum, but the drums had been taken away by the Ministry of Punishment, and only my horse was brought here.
