Chapter 144
This farce will end soon.
But Zhou Jian did not mobilize too much. He even arrested no one of the people he confessed to. He wanted to do it and did it at once!
When Liu Rushi sends a witness, Lu Jun will be called a disgrace and will be ruined!
After he ordered the blockade of the news, he returned to the palace and everything was fine. He went to court as usual the next day, delaying the matter of the Minister of Justice again, waiting to close the Internet.
Two days passed.
Morning, noon, dusk... Zhou Jian has been waiting for news from Fang Jie in the Zijin Palace.
Finally, as the sun was falling, Fang Jie returned, gasping for breath, and looked serious: "Your Majesty, you have received it, and it is highly confidential along the way, and you are now outside."
"Liu Rushi also asked Bei Yi to bring an envelope."
Zhou Jian stepped forward, picked up the envelope, and tore it casually. There was a letter inside. It said, Your Majesty, I have given it to you. You owe me a favor. When the matter is over, come to Qinhuai River to listen to the song, otherwise I will preach the romantic affairs between us to the people in the capital!
After reading it, Zhou Jian was stunned. Can you do this?
But it is indeed a bit threatening. Now his reputation cannot withstand the tossing. Besides, Qin Huairou and other generals, tiger girls, and the empress, would be strange if they could feel comfortable when they hear such things.
"I like it if I have a temper!"
He muttered, then put away the letter, his eyes regained a solemn: "Let the woman who was abandoned by Lu Jun come in."
"Yes!" Fang Jie went back and brought a woman in her early twenties. She was very young, thin, and had a ladylike temperament from a wealthy family, but she had no more.
Because she worked in the countryside for a long time, her skin became rough, but overall she still looked pretty good. She probably looked better before she was abandoned.
At this moment, she looked at everything around her timidly, especially when she saw Zhou Jian wearing a dragon robe, she was so scared that she knelt down: "Minister Qiulan, pay homage to Your Majesty."
Zhou Jian sighed, what a great woman, let Lu Jun come and ruin it.
"Get up, I have someone bring you here, there is no malice, I just want to ask you, do you want justice?"
Qiulan was surprised: "What justice?"
Zhou Jian looked at her straight: "I want to deal with Lu Jun, and I need your confession. As long as you are willing to come forward to prove it, I guarantee that he will return ten times what he hurts you!"
Hearing this, Qiulan's cheeks suddenly changed. First, she was panicked and pale, as if the dusty past was revealed, then her eyes turned red and she resisted: "No, no, I don't know anything."
She shed tears and wanted to escape.
Zhou Jian took the lead in grabbing her wrist, but was shocked to find that her hands were trembling violently, which shows that she was very scared!
"Are you worried about Fanyang Lu's revenge on your family?"
"Don't worry, if I dare to let you come, I will stand up and speak. I will be responsible for the safety of all the young and old in your family. I can even reward you with a house in the capital without fear of being retaliated."
"This is my promise!"
Hearing this, Qiulan tearfully fell like rain, covering her face with her hands, and her shoulders kept trembling.
Fang Jie, who was standing by, couldn't help but sympathize. How much grievance can make you suffer like this?
