Di Xue immediately flew off the horse and blocked Chu Ran behind her, and then drew her long sword to block it in front of her!

"Who is in a hurry in the middle of the night?"

After Di Xue asked, the man spoke up: "Brother Chu Ran is here?" ”

Chu Ran immediately recognized the person when he heard it, and hurriedly got off his horse and ran to the front.

Di Xue also saw clearly that this person was Li Heng, the fairy-like man he saw on Chu Ran's birthday.

"Brother Ran, something happened to Brother Zhou Huai!"

After Li Heng finished speaking, Chu Ran hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with him?" ”

"Brother Zhou, he was taken away by Yue Si Cheng of Dali Temple, saying that he killed someone!"

After Li Heng finished speaking, Di Xue asked:

"Brother Li Heng, don't worry, how is the matter, the more detailed you say, the more we can know!"

Li Heng nodded and told what happened......

It turned out that Li Heng and Zhou Huai and the young owner of Jinyuan Restaurant were drinking in Jinyuan today, and when the sun was about to set, Zhou Huai was called out by a little guy with eyes, saying that the Wang family was making trouble in the city!

Zhou Huai was already anxious about the affairs of the Wang family and those farmers, so his blood and anger surged, and he followed the little guy away, He Ziling drank too much and was unconscious, and Li Heng followed him for fear of an accident.

Who knew that the little guy introduced a slightly remote small courtyard to Zhou Huai, and then he disappeared into the crowd!

Li Heng wanted to go in, but was stopped by a group of farmers who came to see the excitement.

After squeezing for a long time, these people didn't let him lean forward as if they were deliberate!

It didn't take long to hear the person in front of me shouting that he had killed someone.

After pushing for a while, Li Heng was able to enter the courtyard, and when he arrived at the house, he found Zhou Huai lying unconscious on the ground, with his sword still in hand!

And the four members of the Wang family, their parents and three sons, died tragically, all of them were killed with a sword, leaving only a frightened little daughter huddled in the corner.

Li Heng was stunned by the scene in front of him, and he couldn't move at all, and before he could react, the people from Dali Temple rushed in, and took away the little girl and Zhou Huai who were left in the Wang family.

Li Heng followed him to Dali Temple, but was stopped outside and could not enter, and was taken back by his father's people when he was about to break in, and then it took a lot of effort to run out of the house.

"So I came to look for Brother Ran, but I never thought that I would meet Master Di!"

"This matter is too strange, if someone really manipulates it, I'm afraid you have fallen into a trap from the moment you go out."

Di Xue was thinking about it when she heard Li Heng continue:

"That day, I saw Master Di in Prince Heng's mansion that he was like a god, and I couldn't come forward to help Brother Zhou because of my father's identity, and now I can only cheekily beg my lord to help Brother Zhou wash away his grievances!"

"Lingzun is?"

Di Xue was a little puzzled, if there was an unjust case, she would do her best, but who was this Li Heng's father? He didn't even deal with Zhou Huai's father, the Metropolitan Governor Zhou Zheng!

"It's really hard to say, my father is the traitor Li Yong in the mouths of the people."

After Li Heng finished speaking, his face turned slightly red, I don't know if he was angry or ashamed, he was very good-looking.

"I happened to take over Xu Lai's case today, and I naturally won't care if Zhou Gongzi has an accident at this time, but the person was taken away by Yue Sicheng, I can't interfere, so I can only find a way to go in and listen to see if there are any suspicions."

After Di Xue finished speaking, the two also agreed.

But then Di Xue changed her words:

"But the two of you said ugly things in front, I will definitely enforce the law impartially in this matter, if Zhou Gongzi has grievances, I will definitely not let the traitor frame him, but if he is really the murderer, I will definitely report it truthfully!"

Chu Ran clenched his fists: "Don't worry, Lord Di, we are not people who do not distinguish between right and wrong, if Brother Zhou really kills someone, we will not pay dividends." ”

Di Xue nodded: "If I enter at this time, how can I make Zhou Gongzi trust me?" I need to understand what happened to him at that time. ”

Chu Ran thought for a while and then said: "You just said that when he was ten years old, he was scared by rats at my house and peed his pants!" ”

Di Xue almost laughed out loud when she heard this serious scene, but this is indeed a good proof!

The words were closed, and Di Xue and the others also arrived outside the gate of Dali Temple, but Di Xue and the others pounced, and only met Zhang Ying who came out of Dali Temple.

After careful questioning, I learned that Zhou Huai had been sent to the Criminal Department by Yue Sicheng overnight!

"How can it be so fast?"

"My subordinates don't know why the people from the Criminal Department came so quickly, but after you left today, Yue Sicheng left a lot of patrols, saying that the past few days have not been peaceful, and people need to patrol, so I was also transferred!"

"Did you participate in the arrest?"

After Di Xue asked, Zhang Ying shook his head: "I was on another street at that time, and Zhou Gongzi had already been taken out when I rushed over!" ”

After Zhang Ying left, Di Xue pondered for a while and said to Chu Ran:

"Shizi, we can't use Dali Temple as a breakthrough in this matter!"

Chu Ran nodded:

"Indeed, if someone really frames Brother Zhou behind his back, you will be startled by intervening at this time!"

"Maybe Brother Ran can go to ask for an order, at this time, Brother Zhou's father is leading troops to fight fiercely against Wara, if something really happens to him, it will definitely shake the morale of the army!" Li Heng arrived.

"That's the case, but Brother Zhou's arrest will never stop here, tomorrow morning there will be a lot of excitement inside and outside Yuanjing, and the people will probably talk about it!"

Chu Ran looked worried after speaking.

Several people discussed it, and finally decided that Chu Ran would come forward to ask for an investigation, and Di Xue would assist to find out the truth as soon as possible!

Early the next morning, Di Xue was preparing to go to court, but she didn't want Chu Ran to be waiting at the gate of Di's mansion in a purple official uniform.

"Master Di, I entered the palace gate last night, and His Majesty has already made a decision on this matter, so you can follow my palace to receive the decree today!"

After Chu Ran finished speaking, Di Xue nodded, but she was still secretly amazed at Chu Ran's efficiency in her heart.

However, I think His Majesty also attaches great importance to this matter, after all, the trend of Zhou Huai's case affects the stability of the Eastern Wu Kingdom.

So the two got into Chu Ran's carriage and entered the palace.

Stepping on the steps paved with white stone, passing by the long pillars of sacred beasts carved in ashlar, the two of them came to a wide platform, which was filled with officials in blue and scarlet official uniforms.

At this time, Qian Zhangyin, the emperor's internal official who was guarding at the gate of Fengtian Palace, saw the person who came and immediately greeted him:

"His Royal Highness, Lord Di, I am ordered by His Majesty to bring the two into the palace!"

Di Xue nodded and looked around behind the palm print, the space in the hall was huge, the golden pillar floating dragon, the green low set of the golden pattern treasure top, and the purple official uniform, her crimson color was particularly conspicuous.

This is the first time that Di Xue has entered the Fengtian Temple early, and officials below the third rank can only stand outside the gate of the Fengtian Hall and obey orders.

"Master Di, don't look at it, we will be in the limelight in the palace in a while! I'll go to the front first! After Chu Ran finished speaking, he walked forward.

Di Xue stood at the back of the team and her heart was surging, a son of the world turned out to be a first-class master, although it was a false position!

After the officials stood still, the emperor Chu Yun, who was in his twenties, sat on the golden throne of the red silk shop and overlooked the ministers.

He has bright eyebrows, but there is always a knot that cannot be untied, and a dragon robe shows that he is extremely noble, and his every move leaks the majesty of the emperor.

"Your Majesty, in a month and a half, the South Vietnamese delegation will enter Beijing, and the Ministry of Rites has prepared the process and the required equipment, please take a look!"

The Ministry of Rites Shangshu stepped forward and said, followed by other officials to tell them about the major and minor matters they were responsible for.

In the end, the Shangshu of the Criminal Department changed his words, and Di Xue knew that the highlight of today's morning dynasty was coming!

"Your Majesty, Zhou Huai, the son of the Grand Governor, killed someone last night, and now everyone in the city scolds him, if he doesn't make a decision, I'm afraid it will hurt the hearts of the people!" Du Shangshu of the Criminal Department said.

"I already know about this matter, and I will never let it go, Chu Ran, where is Di Xue!" The emperor said.

"The minister is here!" Chu Ran Di Xue walked closer and saluted back.

The emperor nodded with satisfaction:

"Di Xue has also made many miraculous achievements since he served in Dali Temple, I ordered you to take charge of this case, and Chu Ran has also been quite beneficial in Guozijian recently, so let's take this case to familiarize yourself with the court first!"

Then the emperor waved his hand to let the eunuch announce the decree, but at this moment, the voice of a middle-aged man in the hall sounded:

"Your Majesty, please think twice!"
