Chapter 46: Bai Yuji's Runaway
Chapter 46: Bai Yuji's Runaway (Please Read)
Qin Muye felt a little dizzy in the carriage and retched several times on the way.
Only when he looked at the people on both sides of the road, whose expressions were either angry or sad, would he feel better.
Although he hasn't thought of a solution that will definitely work yet.
But since they were sure that they could not accept Qin Yanying going to jail, they had to make things bigger.
Only when public opinion expands to a certain extent will it be possible to completely help Qin Yanying get rid of the crime.
If the door is really closed and only the powerful are allowed to discuss the division of interests, there will be no possibility of resistance at all. Even if Qin Kaijiang comes in person, he will probably choose a compromise option like letting Qin Yanying stay in the cell.
Make a fuss!
But before they had walked a third of the way down Xuanwu Street, a large group of police officers appeared out of nowhere.
"It's all gone!"
"Disperse! Get out!"
"The court is investigating a case. Please disperse immediately. Anyone who violates this will be killed without mercy!"
With the sound of swords being unsheathed, the people watching on both sides of the road dispersed.
Even the vendors who had set up stalls on both sides of the road hurriedly retreated to their shops, leaving the ground in a mess.
Subsequently.
A tall young man walked up to Chen Sui and said, "Thank you, Commander Chen, for taking the prisoner into custody. This case is within the Honglu Temple. Commander Chen, please don't worry about it anymore!"
See this scene in front of you.
Chen Sui's face suddenly darkened. What the man in front of him said was right. Because there were a large number of evil officials and other foreign ministers in Daqian, the authority of the Honglu Temple was no longer comparable to that of previous dynasties.
When the victim of a case is a corrupt official, the case will be automatically transferred to the Honglu Temple.
The person in front of you is Zheng Wang, the Left Shaoqing of the Honglu Temple, who is in charge of the criminal justice affairs of the Honglu Temple. His father is from the Zheng family of Xingyang and his mother is a fox demon from Qingqiu. He has a respected status no matter where he is, so he was able to reach the fourth rank at the age of only 22.
Chen Sui was already prepared.
But he still didn't expect that the Honglu Temple would act so quickly. These people came to take over before they had even walked one-third of Xuanwu Street.
If the prediction is correct, what will follow is to silence the people.
There were quite a few people watching when we entered the city just now, but it was too short-lived and didn’t attract that many people.
As long as the Honglu Temple wants to keep it secret, it can make it seem as if this incident never happened.
He knew very well what these people wanted to do.
Chen Sui frowned and said, "Although this case is the responsibility of the Honglu Temple, the case transfer needs to go through procedures. Lord Zheng does not need to rush. Please allow me to go to the palace to report to His Majesty!"
Zheng Wang interrupted without hesitation, "If I remember correctly, the Jinyiwei had to get approval from His Majesty before they could get involved in a case, or it was a minor case that was implicated in the investigation process. This case happened suddenly, so it must not have been approved in advance. Lord Chen is on leave today, so it was not a temporary case."
We are extremely grateful to Lord Chen for assisting us in handling the case. When we meet His Majesty later, we will not forget to take credit for Lord Chen.
But if you still want to interfere, people will have to suspect that Master Chen wants to be partial to you!"
"you!"
Chen Sui was furious. If it were in the past, what was the point of calling him Shaoqing? Even Shen Kui would have to avoid him if he met him.
As a result, he was put in a passive position in the blink of an eye. A mere Zheng Wang dared to confront him!
"Chen Sui, this is none of your business, just go away!"
Qin Yanying stopped him, then looked at Zheng Wang: "Master Zheng, let's go!"
Chen Sui was a little anxious: "Yan Ying..."
"Save yourself!"
Qin Yanying lowered his voice and said this, then strode into the team of the Honglu Temple.
She turned her head and glanced at the imperial guards she led: "You all go back to training! Remember, don't cause trouble!"
"Teacher!"
The imperial guards looked at each other, their eyes reddened.
It’s not that they didn’t have the urge to draw their swords, but Qin Yanying had told them in advance that if a conflict arose, it would only make her situation worse, so they could only grit their teeth and endure it.
When Hu Huan saw this scene, his expression became more ferocious, and he said viciously: "Sir Zheng, Qin Yanying broke into my house and killed my pregnant wife. He is so arrogant and domineering under the emperor's feet, treating the relatives of evil officials like grass. Sir Zheng, please make a decision for me!"
Zheng Wang's expression suddenly changed, and he comforted him with a sad look: "Don't worry, Lord Hu Huan, I will definitely give you justice in this matter. Let's go!"
Having said that, he left with the people from the Honglu Temple.
The clerks who were escorting Qin Yanying wanted to grab Qin Yanying's shoulders and arms, but when Qin Yanying glared at them, they all pulled back.
I watched as the people from the Honglu Temple escorted the suspects away in a mighty procession.
Chen Sui's face was extremely ugly. He clenched his fists and raised his legs to leave.
But after taking two steps, Qin Muye stopped him: "Uncle, where are you going?"
"I will go to His Majesty and ask for mercy!"
"You will accomplish nothing except getting yourself into trouble. Have you forgotten what my aunt told you?"
"..."
Chen Sui clenched his teeth, and the muscles in his cheeks bulged like tree roots.
How could he not know?
The reason why he is now valued by the emperor is that when handling a case, he is never afraid of offending anyone and has never been partial to anyone. Whatever the emperor asks him to do, he will do it without any selfish motives.
If he went to plead for mercy now, the emperor's trust in him would collapse in an instant.
only……
Chen Sui took a deep breath and said, "But I am the only one in Kyoto who can help your aunt!"
"not necessarily!"
"Who else?" "The imperial examination for all races will be held soon, and our Qin family will be there!"
Of course Qin Muye would not say that the variable was with Li Xingluo, so he could only use the Qin family as a pretext for the time being.
Chen Sui smiled bitterly: "The Qin family's appearance is of course useful, but at most it is just a compromise. Do you really think..."
Qin Muye interrupted in a deep voice: "It's better than cutting off one's own arm! Uncle, if even you lose the trust of His Majesty, then don't we even deserve to know the progress of the case?"
Chen Sui was silent for a long time, and could only nod his head with difficulty, saying bitterly: "You are right! You should go home first, I will find a way to deal with this matter, there may be room for change!"
"Ok!"
Qin Muye nodded and got on the carriage.
Upon seeing this, the imperial guards sergeant quickly jumped onto the carriage and said, "Major General, I'll drive for you!"
"Thank you!"
Qin Muye thanked him and immediately looked at Bai Yuji: "Get in the car!"
This was the first time he had spoken to Bai Yuji in an hour.
Bai Yuji felt relieved, but then she thought that he probably just didn't want to make things worse, and it had nothing to do with his attitude towards her.
He let out a sigh and got on the carriage.
Along the way, the two didn't say a word.
Bai Yuji was in an extremely complicated mood, with guilt and anger intertwined, but she couldn't tell which emotion was right.
She is an avenger, so it is only natural for her to use any despicable means.
The purpose of the mission was almost perfectly achieved.
But the process was completely different from what I expected.
Qin Yanying found Hu Huan without any guidance and relied on intuition alone.
There is no need to instigate things yourself, and you can act without any delay.
A series of accidents.
It made her extremely dazed.
She glanced at Qin Muye, but saw that he had his eyes half closed and had no intention of paying any attention to her.
In the past, he would have been just like an ordinary young boy who was just beginning to fall in love and would not waste a single moment of their time together.
Bai Yuji knew.
This is how enemies should be.
But for some reason, she still felt indescribably sad.
Soon.
The carriage stopped.
Qin Muye walked straight to his room and slammed the door shut, without any intention of communicating.
Bai Yuji stopped in front of his door for a while, and the scene of that night suddenly popped up in his mind.
"You are responsible for the performance!"
"I am responsible for believing!"
But now, he doesn't believe it anymore.
I couldn't act anymore.
Bai Yuji really wanted to tell him, "I was exterminated by the Qin family, and there is nothing wrong with what I did."
But thinking back, he never seemed to say anything bad to me.
She could vent her hatred on anyone in the Qin family, but she couldn't justify it in front of him.
perhaps.
Qin Yanying also counts as half.
Bai Yuji felt upset and just wanted to cover her head with the quilt and have a good sleep.
Just entered the house.
Lift the bed curtains.
Just then, she saw He Xifeng looking at her anxiously: "Princess! Have you found out the identity of the man in the bamboo hat? Is he a member of the Qin family?"
Hear the question.
Bai Yuji became even more upset. When they saw Luo Qing's corpse, everyone in Nanzhao was filled with grief and anger.
This also applies to her. Although Luo Qing's character disappointed her, they were companions who grew up together and fled together after all. Moreover, he had the puppet-making technique in his hands and would definitely be the backbone of Nanzhao in the future.
How could she not be sad?
So they are looking for the murderer.
According to He Xifeng's recollection, when they were retreating, she saw the man in the bamboo hat rushing into the yard.
The one who was so anxious about the Qin family's affairs must be someone from the Qin family. When this conclusion came out, everyone in Nanzhao was filled with righteous indignation, and they all said that since the Qin family was in trouble this time, they must give it a good beating and avenge Luo Qing.
only……
Bai Yuji rubbed his temple and said, "I asked, Qin Yanying doesn't know the man in the bamboo hat at all!"
He Xifeng frowned: "How could it be? Princess, these two people must be pretending not to know each other. The Qin family is cruel and cunning, we can't be fooled by them..."
Bai Yuji interrupted with self-mockery, "Great Elder! The cruel and cunning Qin family can attack evil officials for the sake of children and pregnant women without regard for the consequences. We, who are pure and innocent, can use children and pregnant women as bait to anger Qin Yanying. Don't you think it's absurd?"
He Xifeng: “…”
