The man raised the iron in his hand and said with a smile: "Naturally, it is to let Lord Wei see the torture tools of our Criminal Department, which will also help Lord Wei in the future." ”

"You dare!" Wei Ming snorted coldly.

"Why wouldn't I?"

"I'm an official of the imperial court, you dare to torture the official of the imperial court, don't you want to live?"

"Hahaha...... After entering the prison of the Criminal Department, there are only prisoners here, and there are no court officials, so it is strange that Lord Wei was careless in making friends, and he had to be friends with a murderer. ”

After a pause, the man added, "If the Lord is willing to tell me the whereabouts of the murderer now, I will be rewarded, and I will definitely not be missing." ”

"Phew—"

Wei Ming spat at the man fiercely, saliva sticking to his reddish-brown official uniform.

The man looked at the saliva in disgust, dragged Wei Ming to him, pointed to the saliva on his official uniform, and said.

"I persuaded you with good words, you actually toasted and didn't eat and drink, then don't blame me for being unkind to you."

After speaking, the man let go of Wei Ming, and Wei Ming was caught off guard and fell to the ground.

The man motioned with his eyes to the jailer to hold Wei Ming down, and squatted in front of Wei Ming with an iron nail.

"Lord Wei, I'm offended."

Seeing that the man was about to pierce Wei Ming's limbs with an iron nail, Ah Yao immediately stepped forward, but before she could stop it, an angry cry came from outside the prison.

"Stop!"

As the footsteps approached, everyone saw that the person who appeared in the prison was Cheng Binyu.

Cheng Binyu is also a member of the Criminal Department, and like Chu Yuan's official position, the two belong to the same level.

Seeing this, the officers and soldiers bowed their hands to Cheng Binyu, "See Master Cheng for the villain." ”

Glancing at the present, Cheng Binyu asked coldly, "What are you doing here?" ”

"If you return to your lordship, we are just doing what we are told."

"On whose orders?"

Several people glanced at each other and replied in a low voice: "On the orders of Lord Chu." ”

Cheng Binyu snorted coldly with disdain, "Chu Yuan is just an ordinary official of the Criminal Department, who gave him the right to make a move on the officials of the imperial court?" ”

"This ......"

Several people stopped talking.

Cheng Binyu helped Wei Ming up, pointed to the chains on his body and said, "Open these things, I'm going to take him out of here now." ”

"My lord, I'm afraid this is inappropriate!"

"What's wrong, let your Lord Chu come to me, and I will explain it to him one by one."

"This ......"

Seeing that a few people had not moved for a long time, Cheng Binyu couldn't help but raise his voice, "What?" What the official said didn't work? ”

Several people looked at each other and lowered their heads.

"That's not what we meant."

"Then don't let go of it."

Several people hesitated for a moment, and were about to step forward to open the iron material on Wei Ming's body when another familiar voice came from outside.

"I'll see who dares to let go!"

A-Yao frowned, Chu Yuan is here!

I don't know if Cheng Binyu can still successfully save Wei Ming from Chu Yuan.

She stepped back a little quietly, so as not to be seen by Cheng Binyu and Chu Yuan.

When everyone saw Chu Yuan, it was as if they had seen their savior, and they bowed to Chu Yuan one after another.

"See Lord Chu."

Chu Yuan glanced at a few people, waved his hand at a few people, and then fell his gaze on Cheng Binyu.

"Yo! Master Cheng is also here, what a rare guest! Could it be that Master Cheng finally agreed with my way of handling the case and planned to come here to study? ”

Cheng Binyu retorted coldly, "I didn't approve of Lord Chu's way of handling the case, on the contrary, I came to remind Lord Chu not to get too carried away, so as not to cause trouble for yourself." ”

"What does Master Cheng mean by this, I, a rough man, don't understand it."

Chu Yuan was a martial champion back then, and he didn't know a few big characters, but he was very good, defeated everyone in the same year, and became the martial champion appointed by the emperor.

It was a beautiful year.

At first, the emperor arranged for Chu Yuan to go to the barracks, because Chu Yuan's methods were more extreme, and he didn't get along well with the brothers in the barracks, and he often caused trouble in the barracks, so the barracks begged the emperor to arrange Chu Yuan elsewhere.

Because of his talents, the emperor was unwilling to bury Wu Zhuangyuan, and after discussing with the courtiers, he arranged for Chu Yuan to go to the criminal department.

The Criminal Department dealt with criminals, no matter what means Chu Yuan used, the rest of them had nothing to say.

Chu Yuan gradually let go of his hands and feet in the criminal department, and the effect of interrogating the prisoners was very good, so everyone had nothing to say.

Because of this, Chu Yuan became more and more unscrupulous in the Criminal Department, and his methods became more and more brutal, and he soon became a well-known cool official in the Criminal Department, and all that fell into his hands were some extremely vicious thugs.

Cheng Binyu looked at the injured Wei Ming and said, "Lord Wei is a person who has made meritorious contributions, or a person who was personally promoted by the emperor, aren't you afraid that the emperor will be unhappy with Lord Wei like this?" ”

"Master Cheng, where is this, it is precisely because he is the person personally promoted by the emperor that I want to treat him like this, this is to give the emperor an explanation."

"You ......"

Usually, Chu Yuan doesn't like to talk, but when he talks at this time, he can't answer.

Ah Yao raised her head slightly, and heard from the conversation between the two that Chu Yuan would not let Wei Ming go easily, and was determined to punish Wei Ming.

Now that she's here, she can't afford to watch them get hurt again.

She's going to get them out!

This strong thought grew uncontrollably in her heart.

She looked around the prison, where there were not many jailers and officers.

The officers and soldiers outside were all sent out by Chu Yuan to patrol the streets, and there were few people left, and if you carefully sum them up, you should be able to rescue them smoothly.

It's just that it's easy to rescue, but where so many of them should hide has become a new problem.

Just as she was worried, there was another sound of footsteps outside.

Immediately afterwards, Li Lin appeared in the prison.

Cheng Binyu, Chu Yuan and the others were stunned when they saw Li Lin, how could the fourth princess come to the prison?

Several people quickly came back to their senses and bowed respectfully to Li Lin.

"Xiaguan see the four princesses."

"The villain sees the four princesses."

Li Lin walked straight over and saw Wei Ming covered in injuries at a glance.

She clenched her hands in distress and came to Cheng Binyu and Chu Yuan quietly.

"Who caught him here?"

Cheng Binyu and Chu Yuan glanced at each other, and Cheng Binyu pointed at Chu Yuan.

Chu Yuan said truthfully: "It's a lower official." ”

As soon as the words fell, Li Lin raised his hand and slapped Chu Yuan's face.

Chu Yuan was beaten and blinded, and he didn't understand why Li Lin wanted to beat him at all.

He raised his head slightly, and asked suspiciously: "Why did the fourth princess want to be an official?" ”

"Because you deserve to fight!"

"The lower officials are stupid, and I don't know what they did to annoy the fourth princess."

Li Lin pointed at Wei Ming and said angrily, "Do you know who he is?" ”

"Lord Wei of the Mansion."

"Wrong!" Li Lin helped Wei Ming up, looked at Wei Ming and said, "He is my future husband and my future colt." ”

“……”

Cheng Binyu and Chu Yuan were dumbfounded.

Who would have thought that Wei Ming of the government would still have such a relationship with the fourth princess.

Li Lin looked at Wei Ming distressedly, and the tails of her eyes were slightly red, "Does it hurt?" ”

"It doesn't hurt."

"Nonsense, it doesn't hurt when you see blood?"

Wei Ming smiled but said nothing.

Li Lin protected Wei Ming behind her, and then looked at the other people in the prison.

Among them, Li Lin only knew Su Ji's peony shopkeeper and a few guys, and the rest had never seen them.

But she guessed that the rest of the people should be people who had intersections with A-Yao.

She commanded in a deep voice, "Open the prison door, and I'm going to take these people out of here." ”

Cheng Binyu didn't react, these people were not arrested by him in the first place, and he shouldn't interfere with them if they left or stay.

The Criminal Department also has the rules of the Criminal Department, and he will not trespass.

Chu Yuan looked at her with an embarrassed expression, "Fourth princess, this ......"

"Didn't hear what I said? I'll tell you to open the prison door, and I'm going to take these people out of here now. ”

"No!" Chu Yuan said.

"Why not?"

"They are all relatives and friends of the murderer, and the lower officials still have to ask about the whereabouts of the murderer from these people, so that the murderer can be arrested as soon as possible and the capital will be safe."

Hearing him open and close his mouth and say that Ah Yao was the murderer, Li Lin's anger did not come to a place.

"Who do you say is the murderer? Ah Yao is not the murderer, there must be a misunderstanding in this matter, is it that if you can't find the real murderer, you can only take Ah Yao for the crime? Your criminal department is getting more and more ridiculous. Li Lin reprimanded.

Chu Yuan hurriedly explained, "The fourth princess misunderstood the lower official, and the lower official did have evidence to determine that Ah Yao was the murderer." ”

"What evidence?"

A-Yao was also listening carefully.

She also wanted to know what evidence Chu Yuan had in her hand to prove that she was the murderer.

Chu Yuan raised his eyes and said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "The neighbors near Chen's house have all seen Ah Yao come out of Chen's house with their own eyes, and not long after she left Chen's house, someone found that all the Chen family died tragically at home.

Ah Yao's martial arts are strong, and it is not difficult to kill these powerless servants and maidservants of the Chen family.

Moreover, Ah Yao hid after the incident, if it wasn't for her weak heart, why would she hide? ”

Chu Yuan said it reasonably, if Ah Yao was not the party, she would have believed these words.

"You just think that Ah Yao is the murderer based on these?" Li Lin asked.

"Not only that, Rong Qianhan, the regent of Dongli that day, also went to the Qian family, and the neighbors of the Qian family can also testify, after Rong Qianhan left the Qian family, the Qian family was also destroyed, and it is not difficult to see that Rong Qianhan killed the Qian family for A-Yao." Chu Yuan added.

Li Lin was a little confused, and she didn't know how to answer for a while.

She spoke up after a while, "Even so, you shouldn't have arrested these people, they just knew Ah Yao, and they didn't help Ah Yao kill people, why did you do this to them?" ”

"The fourth princess is wrong, maybe one of them is A-Yao's accomplice, the reason why I brought them all back for interrogation is to ask the truth of the matter and arrest the murderer as soon as possible."

"Nonsense!"

Li Lin is simple, where is Chu Yuan's opponent, he was defeated on Chu Yuan's side in three or two sentences, and he could only use his identity to suppress Chu Yuan.

Chu Yuan bowed his head, "The lower officials brought them back, they were all interrogated in accordance with the law, the lower officials are worthy of the emperor and the court, and I also ask the fourth princess not to embarrass the lower officials." ”

"You, you ......"

Li Lin was so angry that she couldn't speak.

At that moment, another man came to the prison.
