After being reborn, I became a scumbag and his aunt

Chapter 104 Weaknesses (Part [-])
After some consideration, the Secretary of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs decided to pick the soft persimmon first, "The county lord's words are reasonable. Since the state government's trial is in doubt, the Ministry of Criminal Justice will re-examine the investigation. Xiangping Prefecture is far away, and it will take time to go back and forth. Prefect Hu, you are familiar with the case, and I would like to trouble you to stay and cooperate."

Prefect Hu panicked. He didn't know what the so-called "cooperation" meant, so he kowtowed and shouted for grievances.

Zhao Chen's face was cold, unmoved at all, he raised his hand and said in a deep voice, "Take it down."

Immediately, a jailer responded and took Prefect Hu into custody, shackled his hands and feet, and led him to the back of the hall.

The shackles rattled, and Zhifu Hu's cries for grievances gradually faded away.

Hou Yongping clasped his hands and pointed out, "His Royal Highness, the emperor and the magistrate have read the memorials of the magistrate and prefect Hu, and the magistrate also played the emperor's memorial to the imperial study for the specific case. The emperor also praised magistrate Hu for his ability in handling affairs."

Zhao Chen didn't pay attention to Yongpinghou's implication, he propped up the case table with both hands, his phoenix eyes were cold, "This case is only the presiding officer, it's the only one who has the final say."

Marquis Yongping was a little surprised that the crown prince was so tough, not only did he not give him the face of the emperor he brought out, but he didn't even give an explanation.

He Ling Ran said, "Is His Highness the Crown Prince planning to detain the lower officials as well?"

Zhao Chen's voice was cold, "That's not necessary. For a stubborn man like Marquis Yongping, torture won't work for you."

Yongping Hou's heart sank.

The prince is saying that he intends to make a breakthrough from Hu Wende.

He had heard from his staff that the prince's torture methods were extremely sophisticated.

Zhao Chen turned his head to look at Zhao Chengyuan, and leaned over slightly, "Uncle Huang thinks, is this appropriate?"

Zhao Chengyuan said lightly, "The crown prince is the chief judge, so there is no need to ask this king."

Zhao Chen smiled, "Okay, listen to Uncle Huang."

He was getting up and announcing that the Miemen case would be overthrown and retried. Officials from the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple were sent to Xiangping Mansion for inspection.

He added a sentence at the end, "But if there is dereliction of duty, it will be severely punished."

He spoke slowly, word by word, like a stone throwing the ground, with a clank.

The coldness in those eyes also made everyone present chill in their hearts.

Han Youning knows best what this "severe punishment" means.

dead.

It seems that Zhao Chen is really planning to do something to Marquis Yongping.

Han Youning didn't expect Zhao Chen to confront Yongpinghou for her. After all, the person behind Yongpinghou was the emperor, and offending the emperor would not do him any good as the crown prince.

She painstakingly designed these, thinking that Yongpinghou would be completely exposed to the bright side, so that the truth that Yongpinghou was the murderer was ready to come out, and Dali Temple and the Ministry of Criminal Justice would have to push the case back to retrial under pressure.

In any case, she has planned for so long, and her goal has been achieved.

No matter how much Marquis Yongping wants to easily control the government, influence people's hearts, and escape responsibility for crimes, it may not be so easy.

Marquis Yongping left in anger, and the interrogation ended.

Zhao Chengyuan and Zhao Chen stepped out of the lobby first, and the others left one after another.

Out of the lobby, the sun is just right outside.

Han Youning walked with Huo Shan.

Han Youning remembered what Zhao Chengyuan said that night that Huo Shan belonged to him.

Such a well-known hero in the world, with his upright spirit, is willing to submit to others and be controlled by others, but I don't know how Zhao Chengyuan moved him.

Huo Shan laughed, "I haven't thanked the county magistrate for the snacks yet."

Even though he only ate one piece of the dessert, the prince went to the bodyguard bureau to look for him last night, and drank half the night there, he ate up all the glutinous rice and osmanthus cake.

I don't know where the sweet-scented osmanthus cake is so delicious.

He always felt that the prince's appetite has been growing recently.Whether it's dim sum or buns, you can eat it very well.

This is not in line with the temperament of the banished immortal.

Han Youning smiled, "That was promised to Uncle Shi. Why don't Uncle Shi do me another favor and exchange for a box of dim sum?"

Huo Shan laughed heartily, "Okay, county magistrate, please tell me!"

Han Youning said, "Uncle Shi sent someone to help me find a small courtyard. It doesn't have to be too big, two entrances are enough. It needs to be convenient for living and the environment is quiet."

Huo Shan didn't ask why, and readily agreed.

Zhao Chen, who was walking in front of them, slowed down and looked back at Han Youning.

At this time, his eyes were already warm, and he was smiling.

Huo Shan looked at Zhao Chengyuan, who was walking in the front surrounded by officials, and then at Zhao Chen, who was in a breezy manner, and suddenly felt a sense of crisis.

The prince has been very attentive to the county lord recently.

The county lord is in the year of peach and plum, when the spring heart is sprouting, in case a heart promises others...

Zhao Chen said to Huo Shan, "Boss Huo, head of the bodyguard, just have a few words with the county magistrate."

Huo Shan nodded, but had no choice but to get out of the way, and retreated to the back.

Looking at Prince Jin again, his figure seemed to freeze for a moment, but his footsteps never stopped.

Lord, turn around!

Zhao Chen walked beside Han Youning, and said with a gentle smile, "I never thought that you are so quick-witted and eloquent at such a young age, and it is rare for you to make the Marquis of Yongning feel embarrassed."

Han Youning stared ahead and said calmly, "My little girl has escaped death several times, so she should figure out something."

The girl looked calm and indifferent.

A panicked and angry face appeared in Zhao Chen's eyes, and her face was full of tears, but her anger was nothing more than the futile struggle of a trapped animal, and in the end she bruised herself all over.

In that summons, she said that a man in black rescued her that night, and she fled that night.She also said that she was Ding Guogong's daughter.

But today, she didn't mention her background, and Huo Shan's testimony a few days ago also said that she left Xiangping Mansion a few days earlier.

Why is there such a big change before and after?

still is……

Zhao Chen looked at her and asked, "Why did your father let you go to Beijing alone?"

Seeing that he finally asked this question, Han Youning saw that this was her biggest weakness so far.

She smiled wryly, "If my daughter is telling the truth, can His Highness forgive my daughter and Mr. Huo's escort for the crime of deception."

Zhao Chen swung back to the left and right, and even Wei Xiao stayed away from them.

"Tell me, I won't pursue it."

Han Youning thought about the matter again in his heart.

If we say that the biggest difference between these two lives is that Zhao Chengyuan rescued her who fell into the water, and then went to Beijing together.For Zhao Chen, this was not a change due to her subjective feelings.

Her best way is to start with Zhao Chengyuan.

"Actually, the little girl was there on the night of Miemen, but a group of men in black rushed in later, the little girl was rescued, and then escaped from Xiangping Mansion with the help of Yuniang."

Zhao Chen's eyes moved slightly, "The men in black? Do you recognize them?"

Han Youning shook his head, "They didn't say a word, they left after killing the thieves. And they didn't take any gold or silver treasures, they don't look like bandits. That's why the little girl questioned the whereabouts of the treasures in today's hall. After all, there is a curfew at night, and the next day The one who took over Chen's residence is Prefect Hu, who can transport so many things under his nose without being noticed?"

"Well, it makes sense." Zhao Chen asked, "Then why did you hide it?"

　Dear friends, I'm sorry, it's been a day since I stopped updating, and I'm really passive if I don't save the manuscript...

　　The second watch is about noon
