Gu Zuo and Fan Min quickly noticed the strangeness of the scene, and looked at those people who were staring at Niu Fei with strange expressions with some suspicions, not knowing what was going on, the two of them had not been in contact with Li Yuntian for a long time, so they naturally did not know Li Yuntian's habit of trying cases.

"Master Xie." As a newcomer, Niu Fei naturally didn't know that when Li Yuntian said "sign and draw", it would mean that danger was coming, so as soon as he surrendered his hand to Li Yuntian, he agreed without hesitation.

Besides, there was no choice for Niu Fei now, and he had no choice but to follow Li Yuntian's wishes.

Li Yuntian couldn't help but sneer in his heart when he heard this, in fact, he had already reminded Niu Fei to choose carefully in his words just now, but Niu Fei didn't notice the potential meaning of his words.

That's right, Li Yuntian did say just now that he wanted to give Niu Fei justice, but there is a premise, that is, Niu Fei is innocent.

But if Niu Fei is trapped in those three cases, then Li Yuntian will have to bring him to justice.

With Niu Fei's answer, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly relaxed, those old-school imperial historians looked at each other, and their faces couldn't help but show excitement, judging from the current situation, Niu Fei was likely to be unlucky.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it's getting late now, so it's better to have dinner first, and then the trial will take place after dinner." Just when people thought that Li Yuntian was going to start the trial, he stood up and said to Qin Yue, Gu Zuo and the others with a smile, and before they knew it, it was past noon.

"That's fine, the emperor is not short of hungry soldiers." Wang Yucheng took the lead in getting up when he heard this, and said with a smile.

He is the right capital of the Imperial Palace, and he is on the same level as Gu Zuo, since he has spoken, Gu Zuo and Qin Yue and the others will naturally not raise objections, and they all stood up from their seats.

"Someone, send the cadres involved in the Mingyue Pavilion and Xiangyun Teahouse, and the official has something to ask them." Seeing this situation, Li Yuntian took out two order sticks from the lottery holder on the desk, threw them to the two Jinyi Wei general flags standing in the hall, and commanded quietly.

It just so happened that those brocade guards were able to bring the personnel involved in Niu Fei's case to the Metropolitan Procuratorate during the lunch time, and they didn't have to wait here.

The two Jinyi Wei generals held the order and bowed their hands to Li Yuntian, and led their Jinyi Wei lieutenants to set off violently, Mingyue Pavilion and Xiangyun Teahouse are good places, and this time a trip can make a lot of oil and water.

Of course, the two of them have self-knowledge in front of Li Yuntian and dare not do anything too out of the ordinary, that is, to take the opportunity to fight the autumn wind, anyway, the bosses of those two places are rich people, and they don't need to say it explicitly to know the truth of breaking wealth and avoiding disasters, otherwise they will really mess with them and smash the place.

No matter how hard the backstage of Mingyue Pavilion and Xiangyun Teahouse is, they have to be weighed in front of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and it is the famous Zhenwuhou who issues the sign to take people, and whoever is full of food will ask for trouble.

I don't know why, looking at the two Jinyi Wei General Banners who rushed away, Niu Fei's back suddenly rose an inexplicable chill, so cold that he couldn't help but have a cold shiver.

An hour later, Li Yuntian returned to the lobby with Gu Zuo, Qin Yue and others.

Although the atmosphere in the Metropolitan Procuratorate is now a bit dull because of the cases of Ma An and Niu Fei, everyone is an old man in a high position in the officialdom, and he naturally knows what it means to be happy and angry, so no one will show his true emotions lightly, and he is just a snake and a snake.

At this time, the people involved in the Mingyue Pavilion and Xiangyun Teahouse had been sent by Jinyiwei and were detained in two wings respectively, all of them looked frightened, not knowing what had happened, and they actually alarmed the Metropolitan Procuratorate and Jinyiwei.

The two Jinyi Wei Zongqi made a lot of money this time, because the old bustard of Mingyue Pavilion and the shopkeeper of Xiangyun Teahouse were startled by the arrival of Jinyi Wei, and in a hurry, they made a lot of silver from the two of them.

How dare the two Jinyi Wei Banners reveal the facts of the case, so they just sue them for a big deal, and then they can make it clear when they arrive at the Metropolitan Procuratorate, otherwise the consequences will be difficult to say.

This made the old bustard of Mingyue Pavilion and the shopkeeper of Xiangyun Teahouse worried and uneasy, and the two of them racked their brains and couldn't figure out who they had offended.

"Someone, bring Han Yushi, Niu Yushi and Mingyue Pavilion personnel." After taking a seat behind the desk at the back of the lobby, Li Yuntian first bowed his hand to Gu Zuo, Qin Yue and the others, and then his face sank, and he slapped the shocked wood heavily.

With the loud sound of the startling wood, the imperial historians who gathered at the door and talked in a low voice immediately quieted down, and looked at the hall silently, waiting with anticipation for Li Yuntian to hear this case.

The old bustard of Mingyue Pavilion can also be regarded as having seen a big scene, but when he came to the lobby, he saw that the people sitting on it were all three and four grades, and the black pressure outside was full of imperial history, and his heart was suddenly cold, this kind of specification is not low, and it also means that the case involved is strict.

"Knock on the lords." Coming to the front of the hall, the old bustard led the people of the Mingyue Pavilion behind him to kneel down tremblingly, and his heart went up and down.

"This official asked you to come this time because there is a matter to prove." Li Yuntian saw that the old bustard and the others looked frightened, and knew that they were scared, so he said quietly, "If you confess honestly, you will leave safely, otherwise you will be punished with the same crime." ”

"Adults can rest assured, and small ones must be honest." The old bustard hurriedly replied, nodded and said, only then did she realize that the official sitting in the lobby wearing a four-grade official robe was so young, and he looked like he was in his twenties.

"Who is Honglan?" Li Yuntian nodded when he heard this, and then asked in a deep voice, his eyes fell on a graceful and beautiful woman in red behind the old bustard, if he didn't guess wrong, this pretty and charming woman was the red card red orchid of Mingyue Pavilion.

"The little woman is." Sure enough, the woman in red raised her head and bowed to Li Yuntian and replied softly.

"Do you know the two of them?" Li Yuntian stretched out his hand and pointed at Han Liang and Niu Fei who were standing in front of the hall, and asked in a deep voice.

"The little woman doesn't know these two adults." Honglan looked in the direction of Li Yuntian's finger and saw two officials wearing official robes, and when she saw Niu Fei's appearance clearly, her face suddenly changed slightly, and then she shook her head at Li Yuntian.

"This official reminds you that on the evening of February 19 this year, Zhang Gui, a salt merchant in the south of the Yangtze River, entertained a distinguished guest in Mingyue Pavilion and spent the night at your place, do you remember the appearance of that distinguished guest?" Li Yuntian clearly noticed the subtle changes in Honglan's eyes, and a subtle smile flashed at the corner of his mouth, and he opened his mouth to remind her.

"This adult, the Mingyue Pavilion is noisy, the guests come from all over the world, and now more than three months have passed, how can the little woman remember the benefactor of the day." Honglan smiled helplessly and explained gloomily.

"Yes, it's really hard to remember what the other party looks like." Li Yuntian nodded when he heard this, and then his words changed, staring at Honglan with a stern expression and saying, "But if you see each other two or three times a month, this official thinks that he won't forget the other party's appearance, right?" ”

"What are you saying, my lord, the little woman doesn't understand." Honglan's face suddenly changed, and she replied calmly.

Niu Fei was even more taken aback, looking at Li Yuntian with a stunned expression, he had been fascinated since he had a spring breeze with Honglan, so Zhang Gui gave him a mansion, and asked Honglan to live in that mansion for two or three days every month, this matter was a secret between him and Zhang Gui, but he never expected it to be found out by the other party, and the situation seemed to have become a little bad.

He is not afraid that Li Yuntian will call Honglan to confront her, Honglan is a smart woman who knows what to say and what not to say, and as long as he does not admit to knowing Honglan, then even Li Yuntian has no problem, because Honglan does not know his true identity at all, he can quibble.

"Miss Honglan, you are only assisting the government in handling the case now, don't fold yourself in." Li Yuntian knew that Honglan was defending Niu Fei, and at the same time, she was protecting herself and didn't want to get involved in Niu Fei's case, so he smiled at her and said solemnly, "This official can sue you, if you have done something, no matter how well Wulun is decorated, someone will always find out." ”

"The official reminds you that if you have been to the house in the west of the city, then you will definitely leave clues, and if the official finds out that you have deceived the official, then you will be convicted of the same crime." As he spoke, Li Yuntian's face turned pale, and his expression became stern.

"My lord, it's true that the folk girl has never seen these two adults." Honglan's eyes suddenly became flustered under Li Yuntian's gaze, and after biting the corner of her mouth slightly, she said that she was flustered at this time, how could she dare to take the matter of Niu Fei lightly, and she was lucky, thinking that Li Yuntian might not be able to find out any real evidence.

"In that case, then you have to sign your confession." Li Yuntian had long expected that Honglan would not give in lightly, so he didn't force her, and said quietly.

"My lord, is this the end?" Honglan was stunned when she heard this, and her face showed a look of surprise, she never imagined that Li Yuntian would end her questioning so quickly, in her opinion, those big masters who tried the case would usually be punished in this situation.

"Now that you've answered the officer's question, this questioning is over." Li Yuntian bowed slightly, he knew Honglan's thoughts, so he said in a deep voice, "These adults here are the officials of the Three Law Divisions, and this official, as the Imperial History of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, will not punish you lightly. ”

Left ...... Zuo Du Imperial History! Honglan was stunned when she heard this, and looked at Li Yuntian dumbfounded, "You ...... You are the Marquis of Zhenwu! ”

"It's Benhou." Li Yuntian saw Honglan's stunned face, so he nodded quietly, "Don't worry, as long as you have nothing to do with this case, then Ben Hou will return your innocence!" ”

Hearing this, Honglan's face turned white in an instant, Li Yuntian is now in the limelight in the capital, and the people in the capital all know the Zhenwu Marquis who has both ability and political integrity.

And because of the factor of mercy, the girls in the Qinlou Chu Pavilion in the capital are even more respectful of Li Yuntian, and they all fantasize that one day there will be a wishful man who is both civil and military to become their support for the rest of their lives.

The teahouse, the restaurant and the Qinglou are the gathering places for the spread of news in ancient times, especially the Qinglou is a platform for all kinds of information exchange, among which the news about Li Yuntian is naturally the focus of discussion between the Kabuki and the benefactors in the Qinglou in the capital, and some of the big and strange cases he tried in Hukou County, Jiujiangfu, Jiangxi Province and the capital are even more talked about, and they are spread like a god, and it is not an exaggeration to describe Li Yuntian as a god in judging the case.

Therefore, Honglan knew very well that Li Yuntian's trial was very powerful, and if it fell into Li Yuntian's hands, there was a chance that the matter between her and Niu Fei would be found out by Li Yuntian.
