I go to the ancient imperial examinations

Chapter 373 Suspected Guilty

"Who can tell me what happened?" In the lobby, Master Yao must have been furious, his face was livid, and his voice was full of anger. With a glance, everyone in the hall lowered their heads.

Compared with Zhan Feiyu's situation, Zhao Tong knew that the officials of the Suzhou government government were much more miserable, and their clothes were in disarray.

"Report to my lord." Zhao Tongzhi also ignored the wounds on his body, suppressing his anger at Chu Qianshi and reported to Master Yao: "Chu Qianshi thinks that Miss Zhan bought the Yamen police and ordered them to kill Qian Shipeng Afterwards, Chu Qian wanted to arrest Ms. Zhan, but Ms. Zhan refused to plead guilty without evidence, and the two sides started fighting..."

As for why it turned out that Chu Qian wanted to burn the government office in the end, the anger in Zhao Tongzhi's eyes increased a bit. Anyone who was almost killed by the knife and almost burned to death would be as furious as Zhao Tongzhi.

"Xiaguan and others couldn't stop it, but Chu Qian was so frantic that he threatened the lives of the officials and others, so Miss Zhan's entourage protected Xiaguan and others and retreated to the government office."

Otherwise, with the people brought by Chu Qianshi and Sun Baihu, even though they are numerous and powerful, their skills are not as good as others. It is not difficult for Zhan Feiyu to get out of the body, but who would have thought that Chu Qianshi is really crazy , he directly charged his accomplices to Zhao Tongzhi and the others, and ordered to kill them without mercy.

Zhan Feiyu couldn't just leave him alone, so he had to retreat back to the government office.

Mr. Zheng, who was listening, looked at Chu Qianshi inexplicably. This is really a mad dog. No wonder Commander Xie brought Chu Qianshi here. This is to break the sky.

"Zhao..." Chu Qian stared at him with triangular eyes, and was about to scold Zhao Tongzhi, but unfortunately, as soon as he opened his mouth, Master Yao looked over with warning eyes.

"I'm asking Zhao Tongzhi about Chu Qian. As for you, it's not too late to speak up when I ask you!" The loud voice was full of coercion. Master Yao came from a poor family and had no wife to help him. In addition to his loyalty, Mr. Yao's ability should not be underestimated.

It is enough to know how angry Master Yao is at the moment if he can directly interrupt Chu Qian's affairs in a gaffe.

But think about it, the matter of Chu Qian is going to burn down the government office in broad daylight, and there are still people onlookers all around. Not to mention what will happen to the Holy Majesty after he finds out, Yushitai’s impeachment of Mr. Yao’s rule will definitely be like snow. Fly like flying to the dragon case.

I don't know if it was because of injury, or because I was worried about Mr. Yao, Chu Qian didn't say anything more about it, but his thin face was gloomy and frightening, and his eyes seemed to be poisoned. He wished that Zhan Feiyu and Zhao Tong knew them kill them all.

After Zhao Tongzhi finished speaking, Lord Yao suppressed his anger and questioned Officer Matui and other officials, even Hu Butou and others, and everyone said basically the same thing.

The clerk on the right side of the court who was in charge of recording took a pen to write down the confessions of Zhao Tongzhi and others verbatim, and finally asked them to sign and press their fingerprints.

An hour passed like this, Master Yao's clear face no longer showed any anger, but his complexion was still grim and ugly.

At this moment, only Zhan Feiyu and Chu Qian remained silent.

Xiao Zibai quickly handed over the tea, the strong smell of ginseng tea made Master Yao frowned, but he still drank half a cup in one go.

In addition to this thick pile of confessions, Master Yao also needs to write a notebook to record the matter in detail, and then he will be sent to the capital at a high speed. It is estimated that there will be no time to sleep tonight.

"Chu Qianshi, you interrogated Zhan Feiyu to accuse her of murdering Qian Shipeng, is there any evidence?" Master Yao spoke again, looking at Chu Qianshi below with dead eyes.

Chu Qian has been used to commanding Si Zuowei in these years, and has long lost his vigilance and caution. He dares to kill Gu Qingzhou's only young disciple. Gu Qingzhou can't do anything to the second prince in the palace, but the Chu family It is estimated that it is over.

Since Chu Qian dared to do something, he was naturally not afraid. He snorted and said arrogantly: "Master Yao, Commander Xie ordered the subordinates to come to Suzhou Prefecture to investigate the death of Zhang Zhifu. The subordinates think that Zhan Feiyu committed murder. Suspected, I wanted to take him down, but she dared to arrest her, this is clearly a guilty conscience!"

This is why there is nothing wrong with wanting to commit a crime!To act fiercely towards Chu Qian's matter, which is about to be a killer, and if it falls into his hands, it will definitely be a trick of torture.

Master Yao probably knew that Chu Qian's matter was over, and he didn't bother to waste words with him, so he looked at Zhan Feiyu and asked, "Miss Zhan, what do you have to say?"

Compared with the matter of Chu Qian whose official robe was damaged and injured, Zhan Feiyu couldn't see the slightest bit of embarrassment. After bowing his hands to Master Yao who was in charge, he said, "Returning to my lord, students remember that the year before last, the number one scholar in the Jinke Division was given to you." The sage wrote the scriptures, and proposed that punishment should be given lightly, rewards should be followed by others, and loyalty is the utmost."

This sentence comes from the "Book of History", which is an accusation by the Korean Chinese that the forbidden dragon guards have acted too harshly, which runs counter to the benevolent government advocated by the Holy Majesty.

Although Master Yao has been working in Longyou Dao, since he is the confidant of the Holy Majesty, he is also well informed about the news from the court. Although the matter Zhan Feiyu mentioned was indeed two years ago, Master Yao also knows.

This is a contest between the officials of the court and the forbidden dragon guard, and it is also a test, wanting to know where the Holy Majesty's bottom line is against the forbidden dragon guard.

Except for Chu Qian and Hu Butou in the courtroom, the rest are officials who have passed the imperial examination. When Zhan Feiyu said this, Master Zheng and the others were stunned. A little girl like Zhan Feiyu knew that the champion A note from Lang to the Holy Majesty?
But after thinking about it, I understood that Zhan Feiyu was a student of Master Gu. Although she was a little girl, she was definitely much more informed than officials like them.

The fact that Chu Qian dared to be so crazy and kill Zhan Feiyu in broad daylight was not because the second prince was behind the Chu family.

"So?" Master Yao stroked his beard and laughed, the little girl is brave and resourceful, and these words completely nailed Chu Qian's affairs to death.

Zhan Feiyu said again: "The suspicion of crime is only minor, and the suspicion of merit is only serious. Rather than killing the innocent, it is better to be wrong. This means that when the evidence is insufficient, it is better to be punished lightly to demonstrate benevolence. If there is no physical evidence, the red mouth and white teeth will convict me, and want to torture me, this is clearly contrary to the benevolent government of the Holy Majesty."

Even if Chu Qian had nothing to worry about, at this moment he was also paled by Zhan Feiyu's words, and shouted angrily: "Zhan Feiyu, shut up for me!"

Officials are not afraid of greed, when the water is clear, there will be no fish, and they are not afraid of stupidity, as long as there are no major incidents, otherwise it will be said that the magistrate will be cleared for three years and a hundred thousand snowflakes.

But there is only one thing, whether it is the ministers in Beijing or the officials of the state capitals, if they dare to sing against the Holy One, this official career has come to an end. The Holy One implements a benevolent government, but your rule is cruel and cold-blooded. Not far away.

Seeing the enraged Chu Qianshi, Zhan Feiyu grinned, and unceremoniously made another stab, "I heard that Chu Qianshi has contacts with the palace, so is this perverted action just like the other way around?"

Whether it is Chu Qianshi who wants to be tortured into a trick, or he dared to massacre court officials and burn government offices in broad daylight, if he learned from the second prince, with such virtues, the sage would dare to appoint the second prince as the heir apparent?That's not waiting for the country to be destroyed!

"You..." With a trembling voice, Chu Qianshi pointed at Zhan Feiyu with one hand, but he must have been so angry that he was kicked in the chest before, and his eyes went dark, and he fell to the ground with a bang.

Uh... Zhan Feiyu blinked innocently, staring blankly at the fainting Chu Qianshi, moved his little foot, and stepped on Chu Qianshi's little finger with the sole of his shoe.

no response?He was yelling violently just now, but he really fainted from anger?
cough cough!Master Yao coughed twice, and looked at the childish Zhan Feiyu speechlessly.

Shocked, Zhan Feiyu shrank his right foot back under the hem of his skirt, raised his head and smiled innocently at Master Yao, "Chu Qian is very old, and his body may not be able to bear the fight just now."

"Take the matter of Chu Qian down and ask the doctor to come and have a look." Master Yao said in a deep voice, and then glanced at the injured Zhao Tongzhi and the others, "You guys also go down to treat the wound first, and the rest will be discussed tomorrow."

"Yes." Zhao Tong knew that they were all literati, if they hadn't been holding on with anger, they would probably have collapsed, and they all withdrew from the court at this moment.
