Bai Jiu's confession was a sign of confirming Huang Qi and the other two gangs' charges for arson. Naturally, the other two gangs did not dare to hide anything. They immediately rushed to call out similar words. It was the news that Xu Fei asked them to convey, and asked several people to escape from Tokyo quickly.

The three gangsters finished speaking and kowtowed again to beg for mercy. Huang Qi and the other two were even more scared and almost collapsed to the ground. Sun Tu took the opportunity to stare at the three of them again: "What do you have to say now? If you weren't a thief, why would you want to leave? Also, I have found a witness. Last night, someone had seen you wander around Maojia Lane. Do you still dare to say that you were wronged?" In the end, he was already stern and imposing.

As he was frightened by coaxing and frightening, the psychological defenses of several people completely collapsed. Yan Huan was the first to call him: "Prime Minister, I'm a little trick... We did go to Maojia Lane in Changxingfang last night, and also to Zhang Laosi's family..."

Xue Yuanpeng's face became more and more gloomy when he heard this: "So you also set this fire? Do you know how much casualties this fire caused?"

"The Tongzong is wronged, this fire is not something we have let go!" You Laoba also said: "Although the younger ones are angry, they dare not do such crazy things. We just... just..." As he said that, he stammered.

"Why, do you still want to deny it at this time? If this fire is not set by you, who else can there be? If this fire is not set by you, why do you escape fearing sin?" Sun Tu stepped forward and asked loudly.

Faced with his aggressive and powerful pressure, the few people dared not be able to reserve any more, and almost shouted at the same time: "It was Mr. Tian... It was Mr. Tian who asked us to trouble Zhang Laosi's family, and he also said that it would give us a thousand-month benefit at that time..."

"Well? Who is Mr. Tian? You all explained it clearly to me." When he heard that there was something else in this matter, Xue Yuanpeng's expression suddenly turned solemn and he asked immediately.

"Mr. Tian is the big shopkeeper next to Boss Fang. The young men went to Zhang Laosi's family to collect the bill after getting his benefits..." At this time, the three of them did not hide anything anymore, and explained everything they knew truthfully as if they were pouring beans on the bamboo tube.

The boss Fang they mentioned was Fang Boguang, the elder brother of Fang Ai Si. The other party was rich by collecting and releasing seal money and opened several stores in the city. Huang Qi and Lu Fang and others had helped him collect the accounts many times under Fang Ai Si's instructions, and they gained a lot of benefits.

But unexpectedly, two days ago, the three of them were not in the yamen because they believed Lu Fang's arrangement and were not in the yamen to give Sun Tu a warning, which naturally made them feel unacceptable. The three of them did not dare to trouble Lu Fang or Fang Boyan, and in the end they had to go to Fang Boguang to get some benefits.

But this time, the one who came to see them was Mr. Fang, the shopkeeper next to Fang Boguang. This person was easy to talk to at first and admitted that his family was indeed responsible for this matter. However, when the three lions asked Fang Boguang to take 600 guan as compensation, he flatly refused the request: "I can give you 100 or 20 guan as compensation, but if there is too much, it will be fine."

"Mr. Fang, our brothers ended up like this because of Boss Fang. It is natural for you to give money to compensate. If you don't give it to us, although we are no longer in the yamen, there is always a way to make it difficult for you!" Huang Qi, who was already holding his breath, threatened in an unkind tone.

Mr. Tian was also stunned, but then he laughed: "You are not unaware that our boss's brothers are the escorts of the government office. I don't know that you dare not do anything."

"That's hard to say. Now we call Wuguan all the light, but we are not afraid of wearing shoes."

Speaking of this, Mr. Tian was really a little difficult to resist, so he fell silent. After thinking for a long time, he spoke: "It's not impossible for you to really want money, but you need to do something for us."

"What he asked you to do is to go to Zhang Laosi's family to set fire?" Sun Tu asked suddenly interrupted them.

"It's not setting fire, but let us sneak into his house at night and teach them some lessons so that they can force them to hand over their daughter to pay off their debts. And Mr. Tian also said that as long as things are done, we can give us a thousand guan..." After pausing, Huang Qi said again: "So that night we went to the Zhang Laosi family as he said, and also taught him some lessons, forcing him to agree to hand over his daughter to Boss Fang the next morning. But unexpectedly, just a short while after we left, a fire suddenly caught in Maojia Lane, and the fire increased, burning the entire Changxingfang. We didn't dare to cause any more trouble, so we left quickly.

"We originally planned to go to Mr. Tian to ask for the money early this morning, but this happened. Tongzong Mingjian, even if the young man was bold and arrogant, he would not dare to set fire in the city of Bianjing..." At the end, Huang Qi kowtowed again, and the other two also shouted loudly that they did not set fire, and then kowtowed.

"So according to your opinion, this fire was released by Mr. Tian?" Xue Tong asked with a frown slightly, why did something like this change again?

The three of them hesitated for a moment and nodded one after another: "That's true, the young man dares to confront him!"

"Tao Sun Du, I'll leave this matter to you. I'll ask the relevant people immediately." Xue Yuanpeng immediately issued an order.

Sun Tu held his fists and took the order. Just as he turned around and wanted to go out, two more people came to the hall, but He Wu, the other head in the yamen, stood beside him a handsome and wise middle-aged man. He Wu stepped forward to report: "Prime Minister Xue Tong, now a businessman Tian Ning came to report the case, saying that he knew the identity of the suspect in the fire last night."

"Oh? Come in and talk." Xue Yuanpeng's spirit suddenly became excited and he quickly spoke.

The two of them then entered the hall. When Tian Ning stood still, Huang Qi and the other two who were kneeling on the ground suddenly changed their expressions and almost bounced up from the ground: "Mr. Tian, ​​why are you..."

Tian Ning also said with surprise on his face, then pointed at the three of them and shouted: "Prime Minister Xue Tong, the three of them are the suspects Cao Min wants to sue. Yesterday they went to a small shop to disturb him, and then threatened that if my boss refused to pay them money, they would give us good looks. He also mentioned that he would use Zhang Laosi's family to let us know their methods. As a result, a big fire broke out in Changxingfang last night. Cao Min felt that the three of them were suspicious, so he rushed to sue."

"You are slandering, it is clearly because you asked us to trouble the fourth brother of the chapter. Now you have pushed all the crimes on us..." Yan Huan immediately refuted.

Tian Ning immediately replied, "How is this possible? My boss has always been responsible for doing such a thing? Moreover, although the fourth brother owed us the debt, we never dared to do such things. Tong Ju Mingjian, how could there be any reason in this world that the creditors in this world don't want to ask for money but burn the borrower's family to death?"

Xue Yuanpeng also agreed when he heard this. It is indeed the most important thing for the creditor to get back the debt. The lives of the debtors are not what they want at all, let alone doing such a thing.

So he immediately slapped the table again: "Oh, you three bastards, not only have you committed such a serious crime, but you also dare to deceive me and shirk responsibility. If you really think that I am going to be bullied, it seems that it will be impossible to serve me without a serious punishment. Come on, take a stick and serve me!"

With his order, several servants immediately came forward, first pressed Yan Huan to the ground, put his feet into a simple torture instrument made of ropes and wooden sticks. When he pulled the two ends, the wooden sticks quickly closed and tightly clamped his legs. He screamed loudly at that time.

Seeing this scene, Sun Tu's expression changed several times, and the matter became more and more confusing. It turned out that he really believed that Huang Qi and the other two were the murderers of arson, but now it seems that there is something else. It is not that their words are so credible, but that Tian Ning came too timely. It happened that shortly after he and the other three were taken to the government office, it seemed to have come to deal with the confession of the three.

Another point is also quite critical. If you think about it carefully, Huang Qi really has no reason to set off this fire. Even if he takes his anger at Zhang Laosi's family, he would not have done such a thing. However, Sun Tu has no evidence to excuse them now, and his crimes have been confirmed before, which makes him feel a little in a position to start.
