Just when Chi Zhongtian was hesitant, Cheng Qihou suddenly asked: "Zhongtian, is it possible that you are the one who made the report?"

The Marquis of Chengqi was very resourceful and had guessed something at this time.

Chi Zhongtian was stunned for a moment, then said unnaturally: "That's right."

"Oh? It's really you? What, you found out that someone released an imperial prisoner privately?" Cheng Qihou asked.

"Yes."

"Is there any evidence?"

"It can be said that the evidence is conclusive." Chi Zhongtian replied.

"It's weird, how can you get caught in the things people in the imperial court do?" Cheng Qihou said to himself in disbelief.

"Speaking of it, it's a coincidence, but the details are too complicated, so I won't tell you, lest you have to worry about me again after hearing this."

This is just a more euphemistic way. In fact, Cheng Qihou understood that it meant that Chi Zhongtian didn't want to tell him.

Since Chi Zhongtian doesn't want to tell him, it seems that he must have his reasons, and he doesn't have to force it.

After Cheng Qihou nodded casually, he continued: "If the person you reported to is a high-ranking person, you may need to make some preparations."

"What are you preparing for? Lord Marquis, tell me quickly!"

This is exactly what Chi Zhongtian wanted to ask most but was too embarrassed to ask.

But if Marquis Chengqi takes the initiative to say it, that would be the best thing.

"If possible, you'd better find someone with a similar official position and let him participate in the trial of the case, but you must ensure that the relationship between this person and you is strong to prevent someone from doing anything secretly."

After Cheng Qihou finished speaking, Chi Zhongtian thought about it and felt that it made sense. If he found someone he knew well to arrange it, the chance of the other party doing tricks would be much smaller.

But, where can one find such a person?

At this moment, an idea suddenly flashed in Chi Zhongtian's mind, and he immediately said in surprise: "Haha, Lord Marquis, don't tell me, there really is such a person!"

"Oh? Who is it? Tell me and I will help you with your advice." Cheng Qihou followed.

"Do you know Yongmen Zhen?" Chi Zhongtian asked.

"Yongmen Zhen? Isn't that the Grand Tutor of the current dynasty? He is an old minister and can speak well in front of the emperor. Why, can you persuade him?" Marquis Chengqi asked.

"I'm sure."

Chi Zhongtian thought to himself that the relationship between Yongmen Zhen and him was not a day or two, so this little thing should be able to help.

If things had continued as before, Chi Zhongtian would probably have gone to see the King. However, since that incident, Chi Zhongtian's feelings towards the King have become somewhat conflicted. It can't be said that he hates the King deeply, but... I can't tell.

That feeling.

"The first thing is that you are sure to persuade him. The second thing is that he has to ask the emperor to agree to participate in the trial. If the emperor doesn't agree, it will be in vain." Cheng Qihou said.

"Master Marquis, I will think of a solution from the emperor's side, but your idea is too important. If you don't tell me, I will have to ask you." Chi Zhongtian said sincerely.

"I can't do anything to help you now. I'm just a casual worker. I can do small things. But for this kind of thing, even if I want to help you, I can't do anything. On the contrary, it will be self-defeating." Cheng Qihou said.

Chi Zhongtian understood very well, so he immediately replied: "Why are you talking about this? Even if you can help me, I won't let you come forward. This is not a good thing."

"Three steps. The first step is to find Yongmen Zhen to see if he is willing. The second step is to find out the emperor's intentions and see if the emperor is willing to let Yongmen Zhen participate. The third step is that you

With the help of your power in the martial arts, keep a close eye on the person you want to report, so that he can't escape your eyes even if he has any trouble. In this way, things will be much safer." Cheng Qihou thought for a while and said loudly.

"I understand, I will definitely do as you ask." Chi Zhongtian said.

"My child, you must be reliable. Don't take action if you are not completely sure, otherwise the crime will be very serious. I told you just now, so you have to take it to heart." Marquis Cheng Qi seemed a little worried.

He said uneasily.

"Don't worry, Lord Marquis, I know what I'm doing and I won't be rash," Chi Zhongtian said.

"I still have a few old friends in the capital. I haven't visited them in many years. This time, you can go visit them for me. In addition, I will write a few letters for you and take them with you. Maybe you can

Let me help you a little." Cheng Qihou said with a smile.

Hearing this, Chi Zhongtian immediately burst into laughter and said quickly: "This is great. One more person will give you more confidence. Thank you Lord Marquis!"

"Why are you so polite? Come on, let's drink for a while." Marquis Chengqi picked up the wine glass and said.

"No problem, I'll get drunk with the Marquis today and then I'll have a rest."

After the matter is resolved, Chi Zhongtian will have to be happy.

Just when the two of them were about to continue drinking, a servant from the Hou Mansion suddenly ran in in a panic outside.

"Mr. Chi..."

After the servant walked in, Cheng Qihou couldn't help but said angrily: "What are you doing! You are so flustered, didn't you see Mr. Chi and I were drinking!"

The servant smiled apologetically at Marquis Chengqi, and then said in a hurried tone: "Master Hou, Master Chi, there is someone outside who claims to be from Mingye Villa. He has come to see Master Chi if there is something urgent."

"oh?"

Chi Zhongtian couldn't help but be stunned when he heard that he was here to find him. It seemed that this was the first time that he came to the Hou Mansion and someone of his own came to him.

Before leaving, Chi Zhongtian said that he was going to the Hou Mansion.

Soon, Chi Zhongtian followed the servant out. As soon as he went out, he immediately saw Ming Ye standing outside the gate with an anxious look on his face.

"What's wrong?"

Chi Zhongtian walked over quickly and asked.

When Ming Ye saw Chi Zhongtian, he didn't even bother to salute and said, "Master, something bad has happened. Duanshui set fire to the house and is going to commit suicide!"

"What!"

"The fire has been put out, but... but Duan Shui was seriously injured!" Ming Ye continued.

"Go quickly!"

When Chi Zhongtian heard this, he lost the mood to go back and say hello to Marquis Chengqi, and immediately hurried away.

Along the way, he performed Qing Kung without even stopping, and soon returned to Mingye Villa.

It seemed that there was a lot of commotion, and the craftsmen working outside stopped and stood in piles, pointing at the villa.

After entering, it was a mess inside.

"Sir, you are back!" Uncle Liu came over in a hurry.

"how's it going?"

"The fire is out, but the injuries are serious," Uncle Liu said.

"Walk!"
