"Your Excellency, is Zhao Dezhu, the leader of the Sendai Sect?"
The middle-aged man smiled reservedly. He didn't expect that his reputation was so great that even high-ranking officials from the capital only knew his name.
"It's Zhao. Why don't you give me some thin noodles, little layman, and let's sit down and talk calmly, how about that?!"
Yang Qingyuan glanced at this leader Zhao. He is also the owner of the face fruit. Do you really think he can protect him?
"Just like Chen Bing poisoned Mr. Liu Chang?! I sit down and let him poison me again?!"
Seeing that Yang Qingyuan had been biting him and poisoning Liu Chang, the former governor of Pingshan County, Chen Bing was also furious.
In Chen Bing's view, Yang Qingyuan was really a traitor to the imperial court. He was corrupt, perverting the law, and arbitrarily accusing people of crimes.
"I have never poisoned Mr. Liu, you surnamed Yang are so bloody mouthful!!!"
This crime cannot be afforded. Once it is confirmed that the murder of a court official is confirmed, it is an injustice among the ten evils, and can even be regarded as treason. It is a serious crime of the Yi tribe!
"I never said that you were the one who poisoned me, but Mr. Liu has been unconscious since he went home after spending time with you. Now I suspect that you are suspected of poisoning and murdering the imperial official, so I want you to go back to the Yamen with me to accept the poison."
Investigation, if you are the murderer of the poison, you should be severely punished, but if it is really not you, I should clear your name."
Liu Chang did not dare to force Chen Bing, firstly because of the rules of the court, and secondly because he was afraid of throwing rats away.
The rules of the court are to protect the ruling class, and Chen Bing is a judge, who happens to be a member of the ruling class.
So Yang Qingyuan directly countered according to the rules of the imperial court.
The former governor Liu Chang fell ill, and it was Chen Bing's fault. Everyone knew this.
But in that meeting in the cold wind, it was clear that Chen Bing did not force Liu Chang, so Chen Bing could not be punished.
But now, Yang Qingyuan's suspicion of poisoning has completely changed the nature of the matter.
No matter who it is, poisoning a court official is a capital crime. Even if the emperor wants to kill a minister, he needs a justifiable reason. Otherwise, he can only do it secretly. If he is not careful, he will be stabbed in the spine in the history books.
Emperor Taizu Gao only gave King Zhongshan a roasted goose, and then King Zhongshan relapsed and died of gangrene. There was no basis for this, but it was regarded by scholars as the basis for Emperor Taizu Gao to unjustly kill the hero.
Now that once it is confirmed that Liu Chang was poisoned and fell into coma, the entire court will go into action.
Chen Bing knew the seriousness of the matter, but Zhao Dezhu, the leader on the side, obviously didn't know yet.
"That's right! You have no evidence, little layman. This is actually a misunderstanding. I can guarantee that Brother Chen is definitely not the kind of despicable person who poisons and harms others! It's better to wait until the matter is cleared up!"
Zhao Dezhu once again used the ability of the face fruit, "Master Yang, why don't you give me face and let it go?"
At this moment, all the high-ranking public servants in the audience, including Chen Bing, looked confused.
Yang Qingyuan did not give Master Zhao any face, and directly ordered him to come forward and take the person.
When Zhao Dezhu saw that Yang Qingyuan was unwilling to give face, he slowly drew his sword.
"Don't worry, brother Chen, as long as I'm here today, no one can touch you!? If you want to take someone's life lightly, you have to ask the sword in my hand if it will answer!"
Chen Bing looked at Zhao Dezhu in front of him and was not moved. The one thousand taels of incense money sent to Sendai every year was not in vain.
"Is Master Zhao going to fight against the court's law enforcement?!" Zhao Shifeng, the head of the Liumen Branch, stood up. Zhao Dezhu didn't expect this at all, because the relationship between the two parties was quite harmonious before.
Although Zhao Shifeng is only in the realm of eight meridians, it is enough to make Zhao Dezhu slightly scrupulous. There are five Yuanhua realms in the six gates and eight great wind chasing gods. It just so happens that Zhao Dezhu cannot defeat any of these five people.
As for Liu Dufeng, he was an equal to the heads of the eight major sects, and he couldn't even think about it.
"Captain Zhao, you six sects are also meddling in this business!?"
"How can this be nosy? This is the responsibility of our six doors."
The relationship between Zhao Shifeng and Zhao Dezhu is actually pretty good. One is the largest gang in the area, and the other is responsible for local security and political affairs. The two parties still have business contacts.
But now, compared to showing up in front of the political and legal bigwigs from the capital city, it’s okay not to have this little friendship.
Seeing that Zhao Shifeng was unwilling to give him this face, Zhao Dezhu was also angry in his heart. It was not that he was afraid of him and would be shameless.
Zhao Dezhu smiled arrogantly, "Zhao just doesn't want to see people taking human life lightly and abusing private power..."
Zhao Dezhu was halfway through his words and couldn't continue.
Because there were three hundred soldiers in the city defense army who aimed their crossbows at him.
With a wave of Yang Qingyuan's right hand, the soldiers of the city defense army drew up their crossbows and got ready to go.
Although ordinary Yuanhua Realm warriors cannot deal with the 300% organized army of the Great Zhou Dynasty, this does not include the city defense armies from various places. The combat power of the city defense armies can hardly threaten the Yuanhua Realm warriors.
But three hundred powerful crossbows are enough to make an exception.
The powerful crossbow of the Great Zhou Dynasty has fast and powerful arrows, and its hundreds of volleys are enough to threaten Yuanhua realm warriors.
Of course, Yuan Hua realm warriors can use their true energy to spread protective aura outside their bodies to resist arrows, but this kind of protective aura consumes a lot of real energy.
Similar to Governor Cao's Tiangang Tongzi Kung, except for martial arts that come with body-protecting Gang Qi.
It was obvious that Zhao Dezhu did not know such martial arts, and the three hundred shining crossbow arrows would not give him face. At this moment, Zhao Dezhu realized it.
This Yang Jushi has a majestic and extraordinary bearing. At first glance, he is not a treacherous person. He must be an upright official. Moreover, he is only performing the official duties of the court. If you ask Brother Chen Bing to cooperate, why bother to stop him?
At this moment, Zhao Dezhu, from the bottom of his heart, was willing to believe in the imperial court. This layman Yang would definitely give justice to his brother Chen.
Facing three hundred strong crossbowmen, he could take action, but there was no need. They were not coming for him.
After thinking about everything, Zhao Dezhu followed his heart and returned the sword to its sheath.
"Brother Chen, if that's the case, just go with them for a while!"
Chen Bing looked at his backer in shock. He didn't expect that you, with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, would rebel so quickly.
Zhao Dezhu said to Chen Bing seriously, "Brother Chen, don't worry. If this young layman really convicts you indiscriminately and disregards human life, I will personally go to Beijing to file a complaint and avenge you!"
Chen Bing is heartbroken. He will be dead by then. What’s the use of seeking justice?!
Moreover, this new Governor Yang, at first glance, seems to have a dark heart. If he is charged with poisoning an official of the imperial court, the evidence will probably be conclusive, so there is no way to redress the injustice!
Chen Bing still doesn’t give up!
"Master Yang is really not afraid that I will burn all the food with a fire?!"
"Please help yourself, I can make an exception and let you light a fire before taking you back to the Yamen!"
