Chapter 825: Perfunctory
But now it seems that he was mistaken after all.
Qin Fan let out a long sigh, shook his head and continued to ask, "Let me ask you, what are the main sources of wealth of the Wang family?"
"This." Hearing Qin Fan's inquiry, Han Fei groaned for a long time in a daze, and finally slowly spoke, "Backer."
"Backer?" Qin Fan frowned.
This answer is still so perfunctory.
Qin Fan's patience gradually ran out, and he immediately said coldly: "Okay, since you are obsessed, then the official will no longer waste his words and tongues with you, come on."
Before the words were spoken, a group of officials immediately rushed into the house.
Qin Fan's eyes shone and said, "Arrest Han Fei."
"Yes." The officials responded and pounced on Han Fei one after another.
Although Han Fei was excellent in martial arts, he couldn't stand the number of people, and he was finally captured.
"My lord, the culprit has been caught, please punish him."
"Well, tie him up in prison and wait for his fate." Qin Fan waved his hand lightly.
"Yes." The yacha took the order and retreated.
And after dealing with Han Fei, Qin Fan personally went to the room of the county Cheng Li De.
"See your lordship."
Looking at Qin Fan who walked in the door, Li De quickly got up and bowed.
"Sit down." Qin Fan waved his hand, and then sat down.
After Qin Fan took his seat, Li De stood up and said, "My lord, you are looking for a humble position, but what do you have to order?"
Qin Fan picked up the teacup and took a sip, then put it down.
Then he raised his head, looked at Li De and said, "What do you think, how is this Han Fei?"
Li De thought for a moment and replied, "My lord's words reminded me of an allusion, which is called: "I want to cover up."
"Oh?" Qin Fan was stunned when he heard this, and asked, "What do you mean by wanting to cover up Mizhang?"
Li De bowed slightly: "This allusion comes from Zizhi Tongjian."
"It is recorded in the Zizhi Tongjian that in the early Tang Dynasty, there was an official named Liu Xuanling who once recommended a figure to His Majesty, and his name was Han Fei."
"This Han Fei was originally a child of a scholar family."
"Because Han Fei is a scholar, he is deeply appreciated by the emperor."
"After some time, the emperor summoned Han Fei and wanted to give him an official position."
"It's a pity that Han Fei refused."
He said, "Students don't want to be famous, they just want to live in the countryside and live a dull life." 」
Speaking of this, Li De paused for a moment and said, "The name of Han Fei has spread in all directions, causing praise from many scholars."
"But Han Fei didn't expect that behind this kind of glory there was a mortal danger."
"Because of this, in less than a year, Han Fei has been demoted continuously."
"In the end, I lost my life."
"It's so sad."
"Oh? Really?" Qin Fan chuckled lightly, and then said, "It seems that this Han Fei is really an aspiring but lacking courage fool."
Li De shook his head and said with emotion, "He is indeed not a smart person, otherwise how could he be deposed?"
After speaking, Li De changed the topic and said, "By the way, my lord, after this Han Fei was dismissed, he was promoted to the new squire of the Criminal Department, do you think this is a conspiracy?"
Hearing this, Qin Fan smiled noncommittally and said, "Maybe."
"My lord, I think we have to be careful about this matter."
"After all, we all know that this Lord Han, like us, has been loyal to the court, and there is no doubt about the sincerity of the court."
"But who can guarantee that this Lord Han won't go to another door?"
Listening to Li De's analysis, Qin Fan nodded secretly.
"Han Fei, Han Fei, do you think I don't know? The reason why you resigned is actually because you want to break away from the tree of your official and find another high branch."
The corners of Qin Fan's mouth lifted a touch of mockery
arc, and said coldly: "Hmph, do you think that with just a few words of nonsense, this official will let you go? It's a dream."
"Your Excellency, you're going to do it." Li De asked tentatively.
"That's right." Qin Fan nodded heavily, and said in a cold voice, "This official is going to escort him to Los Angeles and hand him over to His Majesty for disposal."
"Sss Li De's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly persuaded him, "My lord, if that's the case."
"Nothing to worry about." Qin Fan waved his hand and said with a smile, "Now that the princes and nobles are all recuperating in Los Angeles, I will escort Han Fei over, who will stop me?"
"At least not on the surface." Qin Fan sneered, "Besides, Han Fei, a traitor who is greedy for life and afraid of death, and has no discipline, His Majesty should have wanted to get rid of it a long time ago, right?"
"Your Excellency is wise." Li De hurriedly slapped a sycophant.
"Alright." Qin Fan waved his hand, "You take the catcher first and put Han Fei in prison."
"Yes."
After Li De left, Qin Fan was not idle, took out a pen and paper, wrote a letter, and handed it to a servant next to him.
"Send someone to secretly send this secret letter to Los Angeles immediately, and be sure to hand it over to Your Majesty in person."
The official took the secret letter, clenched his fists respectfully, and then quickly ran out of the county office.
Seeing the official disappear from sight, Qin Fan's eyes flashed with a sharp light.
"This is the last chance this official has given you, and I hope this secret letter will work."
After muttering to himself, Qin Fan turned around and returned to his desk and quietly read the case file.
After half a pillar of incense, the county lieutenant Zhang Daniu hurriedly broke in and reported.
"Lord Qiyu, my subordinates searched Han Fei's house and found a piece of jade pendant, the jade is warm, priceless, and the carving is delicate."
Hearing this, Qin Fan suddenly opened his eyes and said, "Bring it."
Zhang Daniu hurriedly handed the jade pendant to Qin Fan and said, "My subordinates suspect that this is a dowry gift from a big family to Han Fei, but he secretly kept it."
Qin Fan took the jade pendant and looked at it carefully, then nodded and said, "It is indeed a treasure."
"Haha, my lord really has a good eye." Zhang Daniu said flatteringly.
"Still." Suddenly, Qin Fan raised his eyebrows and said, "Who do you say is the owner of this jade pendant?"
"This subordinate doesn't know either." Zhang Daniu touched his head awkwardly and sneered.
"Oh?" Qin Fan raised his eyebrows and said with interest: "Since this is the case, then you should tell me which wealthy family it belongs to."
Zhang Daniu swallowed his saliva and said cautiously, "My lord, this seems to involve a secret."
"Huh." Qin Fan narrowed his eyes and said, "Can it be more confidential than my affairs?"
"My subordinates don't dare." Zhang Daniu shook his head and said in a low voice, "According to the judgment of his subordinates, the holder of this jade pendant is the current royal family."
"Today's royalty?" Qin Fan was stunned.
"Yes." Zhang Daniu nodded affirmatively.
"Oh, that's interesting." Qin Fan smiled playfully and said, "Let's go, go out with this official for a walk, and see what the current royal family relatives are."
