"The murderer of the tragedy in Chenzhou is Yan Xiong!" Fortunately, Wei Peng didn't want to arouse people's appetites, so he quickly said what he knew.

"Ahh Is it really him? ”

Hearing Wei Peng's answer, the people present looked at Yan Xiong who was tied up over there in disbelief.

They really didn't expect that the murderer of this murder would be the one in front of them.

What they didn't expect was that Gongsun Jian would recognize him at a glance, and even detained him directly in the criminal department.

"My lord, how did you know about this Yan Xiong?"

Wei Peng, who was beside him, felt that he was more familiar with Gongsun Jian, so he was curious, so he asked directly.

In this regard, Gongsun Jian didn't care about it, after all, Wei Peng was his subordinate, and he was the first to take refuge, so he didn't have to pay too much attention to the aspect of respect and inferiority.

No matter what, Gongsun Jian didn't directly answer Wei Peng's words, but asked him, "Then how do you know?" ”

At the beginning, Wei Peng thought that Gongsun Jian was joking with him, but fortunately, he was also clever and quickly understood what Gongsun Jian meant, so he quickly said with a smile: "My lord, I know it from the internal report." ”

"Me too." Smiling slightly, Gongsun Jian spoke.

Of course, this was naturally to fool Wei Peng, and Gongsun Jian didn't notice that there was Yan Xiong in the internal report of the Criminal Division.

The internal report of the criminal division is a confidential document of the criminal division, and it is generally written down every month on the internal affairs of the criminal divisions in various parts of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and issued to the criminal divisions of the counties of the Great Zhou Dynasty in the second month.

Of course, ordinary matters or cases will definitely not be reported, but Yan Xiong's crime is too big, and Yan Xiong has escaped from Chenzhou at present, so he will be notified so that various prefectures and counties can arrest people.

Suddenly, Wei Peng thought of a question, so he hurriedly asked, "But my lord, there is no portrait of him on this notice?" ”

Hearing this, Gongsun Jian shook his head with a smile, and did not answer directly, but pointed to Yan Xiong, who was already paralyzed with fright, and said to Wei Peng: "What's his name?" ”

Although Wei Peng really wanted to look at Gongsun Jian with the eyes of a fool, let him understand that this was not a stupid thing?

But after all, they were afraid of their respective identities, so Wei Peng could only smile and answer: "My lord, his name is Yan Xiong." ”

Gongsun Jian naturally understood what he was thinking, shook his head slightly, and asked again, "Then what was his name before?" ”

Hearing this, Wei Peng felt that Gongsun Jian was playing tricks on himself. A little dissatisfied muttered, "How do I know this?" ”

What was Yan Xiong's name before, and how could he know?

After all, he is not familiar with Yan Xiong!

"I said Lao Wei, where did you run away with your usual intelligence?" Gongsun Jian said helplessly.

"What's wrong? Haven't I always been smart? Then Wei Peng said with some dissatisfaction.

"What was Yan Xiong's name before we arrested him?" Gongsun Jian asked softly.

"How do I know that?" Wei Peng was a little impatient, he had already answered Gongsun Jian just now, but he didn't expect him to ask.

For this answer, Gongsun Jian was a little speechless, and could only say: "The reason why I can see that he is Yan Xiong is because when he was in Xiao Zhou's restaurant, his name was Xiong Yan. ”

"Tell me, isn't Xiong Yan upside down?" Gongsun Jian said with some hatred that iron is not steel.

"That's right!"

Hearing Gongsun Jian's explanation, Wei Peng thought about it for a while, and then suddenly realized.

But then he immediately smiled and said to Gongsun Jian: "Your Excellency, you are smart and witty, and you can even find out that this Xiong Yan is Yan Xiong." ”

Hearing this, Gongsun Jian rolled his eyes unnaturally.

"Aren't you smart?" Gongsun Jian said to Wei Peng with a smile.

Regarding Gongsun Jian's words, Wei Peng naturally understood what he was talking about.

"Hehe, it's all good taught by you, adult." Wei Penggang said modestly with a smile.

"Okay, hurry up and prepare paper and pen, and let this Yan Xiong take care of the matter tonight." I don't bother to continue to talk nonsense, after all, it's already dark at this time, and it's still important to handle the case.

"Okay, I'm all set." Wei Peng lifted the pen and paper in his hand and said to Gongsun Jian with a smile on his face.

As for whether he will be interrogated today, Wei Peng has no doubts.

After all, Gongsun Jian's ability has always been recognized by everyone in the criminal department, as long as Gongsun Jian says that he can interrogate the case clearly today, then he will definitely be able to interrogate it clearly today.

"Yan Xiong, explain the facts of your crime, so as not to suffer another meal." Gongsun Jian squinted his eyes and said fiercely to Yan Xiong who was tied up over there.

"Big, adult, small really don't have anything to say, are you misunderstanding something?" Yan Xiong naturally won't admit it, after all, as long as he admits it, then what awaits him will be a decisive decision.

It was impossible to even make clothes, so Yan Xiong, who spared his life, naturally didn't dare to admit it.

Regarding his reaction, Gongsun Jian was not surprised, just shook his head and said: "Since this is the case, then don't blame the official for being ruthless!" ”

"Someone!"

"Yes."

"Execution!"

"Yes, sir." The official hurriedly clenched his fists and took the torture instrument and walked towards Yan Xiong.

As the torture instrument in the hands of the officials fell on Yan Xiong's body, a heart-rending cry poured out of Yan Xiong's throat.

Looking at Yan Xiong, who was shouting heartbreakingly, Gongsun Jian smiled, in fact, no matter whether Yan Xiong pleaded guilty or not just now, Gongsun Jian would not let him feel better.

Wei Peng, who was on the side, saw that his beloved Gongsun would be happy because of Yan Xiong's screams, and suddenly his heart trembled, and he couldn't help but feel a trace of fear.

Half a pillar of incense is not enough, this second round of torture equipment has been completed, Yan Xiong who was tied to the pillar is not as good as just now, at this time he is already more intake and less breath.

Worried that he would burp directly, Gongsun Jian gave him a look and asked the official to pour a large basin of cold water on him.

At this time, it is winter, and although the snow has not yet fallen, the weather is already bitterly cold.

Therefore, when this plate of cold water went down, Yan Xiong, who was still turning over the dead fish eyes just now, instantly sobered up.

Of course, as Gongsun Jian expected, the first thing he did when he woke up was to beg for mercy.

"Adult, adult, little one has confessed, confessed, you must not be tortured!" Yan Xiong didn't care about the tears and snot spurting out together, at this time, he was bent on asking Gongsun Jian not to torture him anymore.

"Are you sure you pleaded guilty?" Gongsun Jian asked lightly.

"Admit it, admit it." Yan Xiong said while choking.

Nodding, Gongsun Jian looked at Wei Peng beside him, and without waiting for him to speak, the other party immediately said respectfully: "Xiaguan understands." ”

In this regard, Gongsun Jian was very satisfied, and then looked at Yan Xiong, who was tied there, and said coldly: "Say it." If there is an omission, then don't blame the official for being ruthless. ”

Hearing Gongsun Jian's words, Yan Xiong over there couldn't help but tremble a few more times in fright, but then he hurriedly showed a flattering smile to Gongsun Jian: "My lord, the little one will never dare to hide it." ”

Immediately, Yan Xiong was afraid that Gongsun Jian would be angry again, so he hurriedly told his own affairs.

Taking advantage of this gap, Gongsun Jian didn't bother to listen to Yan Xiong's affairs, so he walked out, at least the air outside was much fresher than in the torture room.

The reason why Gongsun was too lazy to listen to Yan Xiong's affairs was because although this person was captured by him, the case happened in Chenzhou after all, so this prisoner would definitely be handed over to Chenzhou at that time.

Of course, as the Linlang County Criminal Division who arrested the criminal, he will naturally have a lot of benefits, at least the one hundred taels of silver that Yan Xiong is wanted can still be dropped.

As for whether the one hundred taels of silver fell into the hands of Gongsun Jian, or in the small treasury of the criminal secretary.

Then it depends on whether the people in Chenzhou can do things.

If when the prisoner was returned, the Chenzhou Criminal Division thanked Gongsun Jian, then the bonus of one hundred taels was given to Gongsun Jian.

But if the Chenzhou Criminal Division was grateful to the Criminal Division that day, then the one hundred taels of silver would naturally be summed up in the small treasury.

After all, Gongsun Jian didn't want people to gossip, especially not to be gossiped about by the emperor.

Although it is said that Yan Xiong was discovered by Gongsun Jian, and he also asked someone to arrest him, this is known to the entire criminal department, but as long as the people over there in Chenzhou are not grateful to Gongsun Jian personally, then Gongsun Jian really can't take this one hundred taels of silver.

Maybe he was afraid of being served by the big punishment, so Yan Xiong explained quickly, and it didn't take long for Wei Peng to run out.

"My lord, the confession has been recorded."

After taking the confession, Gongsun Jian looked up and down, and after finding that there was nothing to add, he said to him with a smile: "It's business as usual." By the way, I'll give him another sentence later. We can't make him feel better with this kind of person. ”

Hearing Gongsun Jian's words, Wei Peng over there immediately said with a smile on his face: "Don't worry, my lord, I can handle it." ”

The reason why Wei Peng was happy was naturally not because he wanted to punish Yan Xiong again.

It was because of Gongsun Jian's first sentence that he was so happy.

It's business as usual!

In the criminal divisions in various parts of the Great Zhou, if there is anything that makes the big guy happy, then there is only this sentence.

This sentence in particular was uttered after the interrogation of those outlaws.

That's a big deal.

Generally speaking, in the Great Zhou Criminal Division, there will be a small treasury where bonuses are awarded at the end of the year.

Most of the money in this small coffers, except for the rewards issued by the superiors, was obtained from these outlaws.

For example, like Yan Xiong, he just said that he would take out fifty taels of gold to buy Gongsun Jian, and many people were moved at that time.

However, when they learned that Yan Xiong was a wanted outlaw, everyone was happy.

There is an unknown rule in the criminal department that all unclaimed stolen goods must be confiscated.

Of course, secretly a large part of it must be intercepted into the small coffers, waiting for the end of the year to be awarded.

And Yan Xiong can come up with fifty taels of gold, which means that he is more than that.

As an outlaw, he naturally did not get the money through formal means, so as long as he asked where Yan Xiong hid the money, then the money could be confiscated.

According to the rules secretly, this large part must be entered into the small treasury, so when they learned Yan Xiong's true identity, everyone was happy.

Fifty taels of gold, how can there be more than Yan Xiong's entire net worth!

Therefore, just after the confession was interrogated here, Wei Peng hurriedly trotted out to ask Gongsun Jian for instructions.

After all, Gongsun Jian is still here? Isn't it tiresome to make your own decisions without asking him for instructions?

Seeing Wei Peng smile and return to the torture room, Gongsun Jian's original intention of going to dinner with him was directly gone.

After all, looking at Wei Peng's appearance, it is very likely that he will be happy and unable to sleep tonight!

Looking at the dark sky with occasional silky light, Gongsun Jian swayed out of the criminal department.

However, just as he was about to return to his house and ask his subordinates to make something and make up for a night, Zhou Chengyi, who had been waiting for a long time, came out of the smoke.

Fortunately, there has been no snow these days, otherwise Zhou Cheng would have been in such a hurry, and he would definitely have to smash his butt to pieces.

"Little second brother, why do you have time to come to the criminal department? Is there something going on? Gongsun Jian asked with a smile.
