Chapter 23 Yamen

Liu Zuo left Qianmo Academy in a carriage.

His square face showed a serious expression, and his two thick eyebrows were also frowned into a frown.

The words that teacher Hua Manting said to him still lingered in his ears. Now that he thought about it more carefully, he felt that the teacher's words had far-reaching implications.

As the prefect of Guangling Prefecture, he certainly has a keen sense of smell and insight.

He could smell the possible crisis caused by the changes in Kyoto, but he was completely unable to realize that Li Chenan might be an opportunity for him in the future.

Although he heard the teacher's words, he still retained doubts in his heart——

What kind of existence is Zhongli Mansion!

What a high status the third lady of Zhongli Mansion has!

Why would she like Li Chenan, who has neither fame nor family background?

The teacher said that the most unpredictable thing in the world is love, such as Zhongli Po and Fan Taohua.

This example cannot convince him, because there is only one Zhongli Po and only one Fan Taohua in the world.

The teacher also said that for example, Princess Yuhua and Commoner Shang Buqi during the Dade period... Shang Buqi's talent was not limited to poetry and articles, his talents and learning were all-encompassing!

How can this be compared to Li Chenan?

But since the teacher said this, Liu Zui still kept Li Chenan in his heart.

His brows stretched, and he did not place his future wealth and life on Li Chenan, but it was just a small effort to take care of Li Chenan.

He suddenly remembered that a few days ago, Cai Yutang, the prison secretary, had filed a case, which seemed to accuse Li Chenan of entering Li's house to commit murder and injuring several people... Li Chenan was drinking with him last night, so he guessed that the prison room had not sent anyone to this case yet.

Go and do it.

Go back to the government office later and tell Cai Yutang, and let Li Chenan pay for the soup and medicine to settle the case.

Just when his sedan arrived at the government office, there was a sudden noise outside.

"Hey, isn't this that idiot Li Chen'an from the Li family? What? Are you trying to get someone from the government office? Just you?"

"Which dog are you?"

"...You are such a tough-talking person! Listen to me, grandpa. I am your grandpa Shen..."

Unbeknownst to Shen, Liu Zuo, who was sitting in the sedan chair, heard a crisp "pop!" followed by a scream of "Ah!"

"You, you dare to walk in front of the government office..."

Before he could say the evil word, Liu Zui heard another "Puff!", followed by another scream, and then a "Bang!"

There were exclamations from the crowd. He frowned, lifted a corner of the sedan curtain and took a look. The scene was a bit tragic, and he ordered the bearer: "Go through the back door."

This Li Chenan is a restless master!

I am really too courageous. It is not appropriate to go out by myself at this moment. I might as well enter the Yamen and say hello to Xue Yutang.

There was also a young man in white standing among the crowd outside the government office.

The young man in white was holding a folding fan in his hand and was watching everything that was happening.

He is Qi Zhixue, the eldest young master of Duke Qi's Mansion in Kyoto. At this moment, he is smiling, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, thinking that Li Chenan is going in this time!

Sure enough, several police officers rushed out of the government office.

Qi Zhixue was suddenly startled and frowned——

The few policemen rushed out of the government office but suddenly stopped after a few steps!

The leading senior agent raised his hand, waved it after pausing in the air for a moment, then turned around and led the group of agents toward the government office.

It's like I'm blind and don't see the violence happening outside.

Li Chenan pushed Shen Qianshan's son Shen Jiye to the ground and hammered him!

While hammering, he cursed fiercely: "If you dare to be arrogant in front of me, I will let you know what arrogance means!"

"Your father is Shen Qianshan, not Shen Wanshan!"

"I almost became your brother-in-law. Is this how you treat your brother-in-law?"

"This is to teach you a lesson for your father and let you understand a truth!"

"When doing business, you should do business honestly and follow the rules. If you break the rules, someone will die!"

Poor Shen Jiye curled up on the ground and howled like a slaughtering pig. His nose and face were so bruised and swollen after being beaten by Li Chenan that even his mother probably couldn't recognize him.

Maybe he was tired of hammering.

Li Chenan stood up straight and shook his hands. His hands were all red.

He looked at the stunned onlookers around him, got up and walked towards the government office.

At this moment, the criminal secretary Cai Yutang, who was sitting at the table in the execution room of the government office, suddenly stood up after hearing the report from the police chief Chen Ergou, "You mean the person who committed the murder outside is Li Chenan!"

"Sir, it's the Li Chenan you sent the villain to capture a few days ago!"

"..." Cai Yutang swallowed and rubbed his hands, "What is his relationship with Li Jingsi?"

"I don't dare to ask this!"

"What's he doing in the government office?"

"I heard that I wanted to catch someone."

"who?"

"It's the Li Xiaohua that the villain brought back just now."

Cai Yutang frowned.

This thing is very simple, but the reason is a bit complicated.

After Li Xiaohua was brought back to the government office, before being interrogated, Jiang Zhao, the prison chief, took her away with Huo Tongpan's documents.

This was a trivial case, but Judge Huo Tong personally intervened. This was obviously because Li Xiaohua had offended someone and someone had said hello in advance.

He didn't take it seriously at first, because Li Xiaohua was just a small grain merchant, and as long as no one was killed on the prison side, it was no big deal. But unexpectedly, Li Chenan also came after Li Xiaohua.

Of course he could ignore a mere Li Chenan, but Li Chenan had an incomprehensible relationship with Li Jingsi...

"Go to the Prison Department and ask Mr. Jiang not to torture Li Xiaohua for the time being. I will go see Huo Tongxuan."

"Okay, my subordinate will go right away."

Chen Ergou turned around and left. Cai Yutang stood up and was about to go out, but unexpectedly Liu Zui walked in.

"How is this going?"

Cai Yutang was startled. He didn't expect that this trivial matter would alarm the prefect.

He quickly bowed and told the whole story in detail.

Liu Zuo also frowned upon hearing this. How could Huo Tong and Huo Chuanming intervene in such a simple case?

He suddenly raised his eyebrows and waved his hand: "Let Li Xiaohua go."

Cai Yutang was startled and then heard Liu Zuo's stern words: "The government values ​​justice!"

"The whole story of this matter is very simple. Li Xiaohua's business is legitimate and legitimate, but someone bullied her!"

"Li Xiaohua was forced to resist because he was protecting his property from infringement!"

"According to Ningguo's laws, he is innocent, so why should he be detained?"

"Cai Yutang, Cai Yutang, as the executioner, you should handle the case based on criminal law and fairness. Only in this way... can you convince the public, and unjust, false and wrongful convictions will not happen!"

"It is said that the examiner from the Ministry of Personnel is coming to Guangling City. Don't leave a bad impression in the examiner's mind!"

Cai Yutang suddenly broke out in cold sweat. He quickly bowed and said, "The lesson is right for you, but I know you are wrong."

"Well, go ahead and send another policeman to catch those ruffians so that we can interrogate the people behind the scenes."

"By the way, what's the current situation of the Li Mansion case?"

"... Sir, Li Chenan has a close relationship with the Lijing Division. The Lijing Division intervened in that case and it has now been closed."

Only then did Liu Zuo suddenly realize, and he carefully ordered: "Don't talk about Li Chenan and Li Jingsi to anyone, and those who know about it must keep silent!"

He turned around and walked out with a smile on his face.

My mentor, you are indeed silent!
