Chapter 110: Chapter 110: I will solve the case that the Ministry of Justice cannot solve"Swish!"

The crossbow arrows came through the air.

The middle-aged officer drew his long sword and knocked the oncoming crossbow arrows away. The hostility in the army suddenly surged up.

This little Tongluo actually dared to shoot arrows at him. He deserved to be beheaded today. The night watchman has always been showing off his power. If he doesn't retaliate now, when will he?

The middle-aged officer raised his long sword and shouted: "Those who break into the Ministry of Justice will die!"

The clanging sound continued. The soldiers drew their sabers with solemn expressions, as if they were going to war.

Xu Qi'an exerted force on the stirrups with his legs and jumped several feet high. During the flight, his right hand pressed the handle of the black gold long sword.

The middle-aged officer grinned and rushed forward with a strong aura.

In the air, a bright sword light flashed, and Xu Qi'an and the middle-aged officer crossed and landed steadily at the gate of the Ministry of Justice.

It was not until this time that both sides reacted. No one, including the night watchmen, expected Xu Qi'an to be so decisive.

In their minds, Xu Qi'an would show the gold medal and shout back the guards. This method is softer and less likely to cause trouble.

Xu Qi'an held the knife in his right hand, and shook his wrist, leaving a line of blood on the ground.

The middle-aged officer swayed and fell to the ground with his head raised.

A soldier came forward to check, touched the officer's neck, and said in a lost voice: "Dead!" Now, the faces of the night watchmen also changed.

Conflicts are conflicts. Although everyone looks like they are going to fight, if they kill people, the situation will escalate, and the people killed are still people from the Ministry of Justice.

Even the most arrogant night watchmen have never killed people in the street at the gate of any of the six ministries.

Swish!

All the soldiers turned around and faced Xu Qi'an. The atmosphere was like a gunpowder barrel that would explode immediately.

This broken secret skill is just a three-second true man... It's not enough to support me in a protracted war. I'll find a chance to change it in the future.

Xu Qi'an, who was tired, took out the gold medal and showed it to everyone: "Investigating the case by order, those who hinder will be killed without mercy!"

He swept the soldiers with a sharp look.

"Stay down!" he roared.

Under the double shock of the gold medal and the officer's body, the soldiers retreated.

Xu Qi'an put it back into the sheath and led the two silver gongs and twelve bronze gongs into the Ministry of Justice.

Along the way, Yang Feng and Min Shan, the two silver gongs, kept examining Xu Qi'an, as if they were getting to know him again.

Min Shan frowned and said, "Are you too impulsive! Killing someone outside the gate of the Ministry of Justice, and he is still an official. Aren't you afraid of being held accountable later?"

Xu Qi'an, who killed someone for the first time, still had a murderous look between his eyebrows. He glanced at the beard and said, "Do I have a future?"

Min Shan was stunned.

Xu Qian'an sneered and continued, "I am already in a desperate situation. For me now, progress is life, clues are life. Whoever dares to stop me from handling the case will kill me. "The Ministry of Justice and the night watchmen's office have always been at odds. If the government office tries to steal my credit, these people will be stumbling blocks for my handling of the case. If I am not ruthless, there will be a second, third, and fourth person jumping out to obstruct me in the future. If I don't kill them, they will kill me indirectly.

"I killed an ignorant person today, and tomorrow other ignorant people will be afraid and scared. This is also a disguised way to reduce the killing."

Xu Qian'an said, looking at the two silver gongs Yang Feng and Min Shan, smiling: "The two people under Yang Jinluo still questioned me and did not trust my ability to do things, let alone the government office and the Ministry of Justice?"

His words were very clear, he was establishing his authority.

Yang and Min, the two silver gongs, laughed and said, "Sir Xu, it is we who underestimated you."

This Sir Xu was truly heartfelt. Rather than being forced by the emperor's order.

The Ministry of Justice was very large, and Xu Qian'an caught a clerk on the way to lead the way.

The clerk was just a weak man, a little afraid of these ferocious night watchmen, and did not dare to disobey, so he led them to the meeting room.

After passing through the courtyard, we came to the meeting room of the Ministry of Justice. This was a spacious hall with no tables, only chairs, neatly arranged.

The people from the two yamen sat on both sides, clearly separated.

On the left were the officials of the Ministry of Justice, headed by the second-rank Minister of

the Ministry of Justice, who wore a red robe and embroidered pheasants.

On the right were the officials of the Ministry of Justice, headed by the fourth-rank Chen Fuyin of Jingzhao Prefecture, who wore a red robe and embroidered cloud geese.

In the middle sat a eunuch wearing a tall hat and a python robe, with a white face and no beard, squinting eyes, and a weird look.

Two eunuchs stood beside this eunuch.

When they arrived at the door, the clerk trembled like a quail, saying, "You, my lords... the night watchman has arrived..."

In the meeting room, more than a dozen powerful officials looked at him at the same time. Facing the gazes of the bigwigs, Xu Qi'an stepped over the threshold and clasped his fists and said, "I am Xu Qi'an, and I am honored to meet you, lords."

He glanced at the crowd and saw a familiar woman, one of the chief constables of Jingzhao Prefecture, Lu Qing.

The latter also noticed him, and a deep confusion flashed in her eyes. Especially when she saw the two silver gongs and the other copper gongs, who were vaguely led by Xu Qi'an, she became more and more shocked.

An official from the Ministry of Justice looked at Xu Qi'an and said calmly, "For such a big case, the night watchman didn't even send a golden gong. I will impeach him tomorrow." Xu Qi'an said calmly, "Why should the night watchman report to your Ministry of Justice when he investigates the case?"

After a pause, he said, "I heard that the Ministry of Justice detained many officials from the Dali Temple, the Ministry of Rites, and the palace, and prevented us night watchmen from interrogating. Your Excellency, may I ask what this means?"

Sun Shangshu, who had met Xu Qi'an once before, didn't say anything, and didn't even look at him. He picked up the teacup expressionlessly and took a sip.

In the officialdom, serving tea means seeing off guests.

Xu Qi'an curled his lips, didn't continue to argue, and quietly found a place to sit down.

In the eyes of everyone, he was a coward and endured Sun Shangshu's intimidation.

At this time, a clerk came in a hurry, glanced at the night watchmen, and whispered a few words in the ear of an official from the Ministry of Justice.

The official from the Ministry of Justice changed his face, slammed the table, pointed at Xu Qi'an and others, and scolded: "How unreasonable, they simply disrespect the law!"

The officials in the hall frowned. Sёarᴄh the NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Sun Shangshu said: "What's going on?"

The official from the Ministry of Justice was excited and bowed his hands and said: "Sir

Shangshu, Eunuch Liu, these night watchmen killed people at the door of my Ministry of Justice, and they killed a general with an official position. How arrogant and arrogant. They must be severely punished."

The officials were shocked, and even the eunuch who was holding a pedestal, squinting his eyes and not speaking, looked at Xu Qi'an and others in surprise.

Sun Shangshu's expression remained unchanged. He patted the armrest of the chair lightly and said, "The Ministry of Justice is in charge of criminal law and laws, sharing the worries of His Majesty and pleading for the people. Come on..."

"Wait!" Xu Qian'an interrupted loudly, sneering, "This official was ordered to investigate the case, but the Ministry of Justice was obstructing the investigation. This official held a gold medal and executed first and reported later. In addition, this official suspected that the Ministry of Justice colluded with the thieves and was the culprit of the bombing of the Yongzhen Mountain and River Temple. Sun Shangshu, why don't you come with me to the

night watchman's office?"

So tough?

The officials of the government office looked at each other in disbelief. Is this really what a

small copper gong dared to say?

Sun Shangshu was a second-rank official with great power, one of the officials in the court.

The copper gong in front of him dared to speak like this, and did not take Sun Shangshu

seriously at all.

The officials of the government office could not help but look at their superiors, but found

that Chen Fuyin looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle and pretended not to see it.

"How dare you!"

"How many heads do you have to frame the Shangshu?"

The official of the Ministry of Justice was furious.

Xu Qi'an was even more crazy. He stepped forward, pressed the knife with one hand, and

stared at the people in the Ministry of Justice: "If the Ministry of Justice can't solve the case, I will solve it. If the Ministry of Justice can't kill someone, I will kill him!"

"And more!" Xu Qi'an took out the gold medal given by His Majesty from his arms, shook his hand, and "bang" the gold medal spun and embedded in the ground, splashing fine dust.

"If the Ministry of Justice dares to obstruct my investigation, I will kill the Ministry of Justice as well!"

"Is it clear enough?"

The meeting room was silent, and the furious official of the Ministry of Justice suddenly lost

his temper, not because of fear, but because of shock.

What's wrong with the night watchman's office? What's wrong with Wei Yuan?

Sending such a young man to investigate the case, isn't this handing the handle to the

political enemy?

Just based on these words, if he is arrested in the prison of the Ministry of Justice, he will

never get out. Tomorrow the Ministry of Justice will jointly file a complaint against Wei Yuan,

and see how he explains it.

"Haha!" The eunuch in the dragon robe laughed, "He is indeed young and energetic, showing

his talent."

He looked around at everyone: "Let me introduce this Tongluo to everyone. He was recommended by the princess and personally named by His Majesty as the chief officer of the

night watchman's office.

"By the way, he was sentenced to be beheaded seven days later by Lord Wei for injuring his superior. His Majesty is merciful and allowed him to make meritorious contributions while serving his sentence."

The chief officer appointed by His Majesty, no wonder he dares to be so crazy... He injured his

superior and was beheaded seven days later. No wonder he has such a strong murderous intention!

The officials of the Ministry of Justice suddenly fell silent.

This is a desperate lunatic. Solving the case is his only chance of survival. Such people are

most likely to go to extremes. If he is pushed to the limit, I am afraid he will be willing to drag

a few people to be buried with him.

This can be seen from the fact that he killed the officers without hesitation.

Seeing that the officials of the Ministry of Justice were seeking benefits and avoiding harm,

the eunuch pressed his hand and said, "Sit down. The Sangpo case involves a lot of things. His Majesty attaches more importance to it than the tax case. He specially appointed me as the governor to supervise you to handle the case.

"The night watchman came at the right time, so I don't have to talk to you again later."

This eunuch obviously prefers me... To be precise, it is the night watchman. Is it Wei Yuan's

relationship?

Xu Qian'an clasped his fists and returned to his seat.

Song Tingfeng was very cooperative. He ran forward and pulled out the gold medal, offering

it with both hands: "Sir, your gold medal."

Xu Qi'an looked at everyone in a demonstrative manner, and reached out to take it: "Yes!" His second stage of establishing authority was very effective. Portraying himself as a desperate and reckless man can solve many problems in the future. If the people in the Ministry of Justice and the government want to compete for credit, they have to think about it first. The guy he is facing is a psychopath who kills people with a knife

at the slightest disagreement.

As for what troubles will arise in the future, Xu Qi'an doesn't care. First, he believes that Wei

Yuan will protect him from the wind and rain. Second, if he can't solve the case, he doesn't need to worry about the follow-up. Either die or leave the capital forever.

Eunuch Liu drank a sip of tea and said, "There are people missing in the three yamen. These missing people are most likely to be the discs, helping the thieves to secretly smuggle gunpowder. What do you think about this?"

Chen Fuyin said, "This government has sent people to check the families of the nine deceased.

They are still in the capital and have no idea about the disappearance of their relatives. This government infers that the nine people did not escape, but were silenced."

Eunuch Liu nodded slightly.

An official from the Ministry of Justice said, "There must be discs hidden in the three yamen.

The more hidden discs are that they killed people to silence them and liquidated those who

knew about it." Eunuch Liu frowned and pondered.

Xu Qian'an listened silently. Since he stayed to attend the meeting, the detained people would

not be of much use.

Because as long as he listened to the conversations between the Ministry of Justice and the officials of the yamen, he could get the information he wanted to know.

"I'm afraid that not only the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Rites, but even the Ministry of

Works has discs." Lu Qing said in a deep voice. Everyone looked at the only woman present. Eunuch Liu looked at Lu Qing and nodded: "Go on."

Lu Qing said: "I have investigated their family background and interpersonal relationships.

With their abilities, they are not enough to smuggle so much gunpowder from the gunpowder factory. Therefore, there must be someone in the Ministry of Works who secretly assisted, and

the official position is not small."

The official position is not small....

"Gunpowder is a strategic material that the court attaches great importance to. Various confidentiality and anti-theft measures are very strict and complete. Without the assistance of senior officials from the Ministry of Works, this matter cannot be done." The logic is clear and reasonable. Everyone nodded continuously and looked at Lu Qing, the female head constable, with a new look.

Xu Qian'an noticed that an eunuch beside Eunuch Liu was writing furiously, as if he was

taking notes and recording everyone's conversation. ..... Is this for Emperor Yuan Jing to see?

The old emperor attaches much more importance to this case than the tax silver case... Well,

that's right, I don't know what the thing that came out from under the Mulberry Lake is.

Unless it is extremely terrifying and extremely important, it will not be sealed in Sangpo. Xu Qiyan thought to himself.

Eunuch Liu, who was wearing a dragon robe, looked at the night watchman and Xu Qiyan, and

asked: "Master Xu, don't keep silent. As the chief officer of the night watchman, have you gained anything?"

Officials from the government office and the Ministry of Justice looked over at the same time.
