As soon as these words came out, Magistrate Zhou straightened his back and reported to Han Nian: "Master Han, the evidence is conclusive that Pan Hongda killed people and dumped their bodies! In addition, he also insulted women in the street and allowed his housekeepers and subordinates to beat and arrest people.

Sin of pleasure!"

In the courtroom, Mr. Xu was already sweating coldly. The current matter was gradually beyond his ability.

Before the change, even if a murder case occurred, the Criminal Department could still operate through the Criminal Department. But now, with the presence of Jiuxing Division, the Criminal Department's ability has been greatly reduced.

Han Nian stood with his hands behind his hands and was indifferent to the matter: "As the county magistrate, you can handle this matter in accordance with the law."

"Yes!" Magistrate Zhou suddenly raised his hands and shouted.

With the Jiuxing Division in charge, I suddenly feel confident. After all these years, I can finally let go and do something big.

He cleared his throat and called to the head catcher Fan Ai: "Come here, capture the prisoner Pan Hongda! Put him in jail! Wait for trial in court, plead guilty and be imprisoned, and then he will be executed in the future!"

"Your surname is Zhou! How dare you!" Pan Hongda pointed at County Magistrate Zhou.

Magistrate Zhou snorted coldly: "This county handles all cases according to the laws of Yangning. Killing someone and dumping their body is a capital crime! Don't take it down with me!"

Magistrate Zhou straightened his official hat and became energetic. This was the first time in his life that he faced such toughness from an official from the Ministry of Justice.

Han Nian on the side yawned and had no intention of listening anymore. He called the members of the Jiuxing Division beside him and escorted Ye Feng away.

Everyone left the county government office, walked to a corner, and untied Ye Feng's shackles.

"Lin Xiyao didn't come back from Ziyun Mountain, so I came here for her." Han Nian looked at him and said lightly.

Ye Feng moved his wrist and looked at the domineering man in front of him: "Thank you, it's all thanks to you this time. If I had been a little late, I would have been taken away by the Ministry of Justice."

Han Nian waved his hand: "Remember, you owe me a favor and you will have to pay it back in the future."

"That's nature, that's nature."

"Pan Xinghuai, as the Minister of Justice, accepted bribes, changed the verdict of the case, and used his power to help others eliminate political opponents. The Jiuxing Division has been investigating this matter for a long time, and it is almost time to close the net. Your matter this time has only helped us speed up the progress.

That’s all.”

Seeing Han Nian's cold expression, Ye Feng smiled bitterly and shook his head: "No matter what, I still want to thank you."

"Remember to return the favor in the future."

After Han Nian finished speaking, he yawned and left with everyone in Jiuxing Division.

Seeing the people from Jiuxing Division leaving, Ye Feng looked up at the early autumn sky with mixed feelings in his heart.

I walked through the gate of hell again...

Sure enough, in this feudal society, only power can fight against power. The so-called fairness and justice of the law are all nonsense. The lives of small people are nothing but trivial matters in the eyes of those in power.

Ye Feng closed his eyes slightly and took a deep breath.

In the sunshine of early autumn, I feel like I have been reborn.

…

Yongding County Yamen, in the court hall.

Xu Langzhong glared at Magistrate Zhou and wanted to kill him with a thousand knives.

The matter of Jiuxingsi taking Ye Feng away can be discussed later, but now he wants to touch Pan Hongda, which is absolutely not allowed.

If he had not brought Ye Feng back, he would have only lost his official position.

But if Pan Hongda is not brought back, he will lose his head!

The lesser of two evils, today I must take Pan Hongda away safely no matter what.

Seeing Jiuxingsi leaving, Xu Langzhong calmed down and made the final resistance.

"This officer suspects that you have taken bribes and perverted the law. In order to avoid unjust, false and wrongful convictions, the Criminal Department will re-investigate this case thoroughly!"

Magistrate Zhou smiled and looked at Mr. Xu coldly, "Corruption and perversion of the law? Unjust, false, and wrongful convictions? Are you introducing yourself to the Ministry of Punishment?"

"I represent the Ministry of Punishment! Bring Pan Hongda back to the Ministry of Punishment for trial!"

"I represent the county government! The evidence in this case is conclusive and the criminal cannot be taken away!"

"What the hell! How dare a little magistrate of Yong'an County not carry out the orders of the Ministry of Justice!" Pan Hongda on the side was still jumping and cursing even though he was shackled.

Magistrate Zhou glared at Pan Hongda: "Try to curse again! I tell you, when it comes to swearing, I am your ancestor!"

All of a sudden, Pan Hongda insulted Zhou Youshuang, beat Zhou Changsheng, and framed Ye Feng all came to mind.

Magistrate Zhou took a step forward and gave Pan Hongda a mouthful of mouth.

Pan Hongda was directly stunned.

Seeing Pan Hongda being beaten, Xu Langzhong raised his voice and warned: "The Ministry of Punishment is talking to you now!"

"It won't work even if the King of Heaven comes!"

Xu Langzhong was furious, walked quickly to Magistrate Zhou, looked around, and said to him: "I advise you to recognize the reality. Jiuxing Division can protect you for a while, but it cannot protect you for life. What's more, Jiuxing Division is here to save you.

Ye Feng is not here to save you. If you insist on doing this today, you will lose your life in the future. Think about your family."

Magistrate Zhou looked at him sideways: "I only know that anyone who obstructs the county government's handling of the case will be treated as an accomplice and will lose his life now."

Xu Langzhong nodded and said: "Master Pan and the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel have been friends for generations. If you turn a blind eye to this matter, Mr. Pan will definitely recommend it to the Ministry of Personnel..."

"No need, being a county magistrate in Yong'an County is enough!"

Seeing that Magistrate Zhou was unwilling to accept his offer, Langzhong Xu asked, "Who are you working for, Zhou?"

"I'm working as an errand for Yangning Law!"

Xu Langzhong looked at the soldiers he had brought and ordered: "Come here, take Mr. Pan back to the Ministry of Punishment!"

"Yes!" The soldiers stepped forward together.

Zheng——

County Magistrate Zhou turned around and pulled out the simple knife from Fan Ai's waist: "Let's see who dares today! Pan Hongda killed someone and dumped his body. The evidence is conclusive! This is the county government hall. According to the laws of Yangning, it is not allowed to disturb the order of the court and protect criminals.

After approval, he will be beheaded immediately! Where are the government officials!"

"exist!"

Wu Teng immediately drew his sword and immediately surrounded the soldier with a group of sword-wielding officers.

After saying that, Magistrate Zhou turned around and looked at Mr. Xu: "Whoever dares to move, I will chop him down! Today I will show you what it means when a man is angry, blood will be splashed five steps away!"

…

Yongding County, county government prison.

After Mr. Xu left, Pan Hongda lost his previous arrogance and huddled in the corner, his eyes dull and trembling.

In the dark corridor of the prison, Magistrate Zhou walked arrogantly in front, followed by the two head catchers Wu Teng and Fan Ai, and at the back was Ye Feng.

"Open the door!"

Magistrate Zhou held up his official hat and looked upright.

The sound of iron locks ringing came, and Pan Hongda suddenly jumped up in fright.

Seeing everyone walking into the cell, he shrank back to the corner in fear.

"Big...big..."

"What's big? Can you speak well?!" Wu Teng shouted.

Pan Hongda nodded and adjusted his message: "Your Excellency, County Magistrate, two arrests."

Then, he looked at Ye Feng: "Cousin, cousin..."

Ye Feng smiled: "Cousin? I'm out!"

Ye Feng took a step forward, squatted down in front of Pan Hongda, and stared into his eyes.

Now, Ye Feng wants to confirm his suspicion: "Who asked you to tease Miss Zhou in the street and lure me out?"

"No...no...no..." Pan Hongda looked panicked and waved his hands repeatedly.

Snapped--

A loud slap echoed in the prison.

"Don't make me ask a second time. Next, every time you answer a question wrong, you will get slapped in the face. Do you understand?" Ye Feng asked coldly.

Pan Hongda did not dare to speak and nodded repeatedly.

Snapped--

Another mouth.

"This is also a question, and you answered it wrong."

"I understand, I understand."

"Can you answer that question now?" Ye Feng looked at him with calm eyes.

"Yes... it's my father... oh no no no, it's Hou Mushan..."

A trace of shock flashed in Ye Feng's eyes, and then he asked: "What happens after you lure me out?"
