Jin Yiwei's words caused everyone to exclaim, and Huo Yunqi immediately said after being dazed: "Impossible. Although my Huo family has accepted many righteous men from the rivers and lakes, there is no one wanted by the court!"

Although the Huo family is weak at the moment and needs the help of these knight-errants, at first glance, it seems that the ones Huo Yunqi calls are not single-handed heroes, but most of them are trash who can only support the scene.

But because of this, it is even more impossible for these people to have anything to do with the imperial court's criminals, so Huo Yunqi felt that the actions of this group of Jin Yiwei were purely intentional crimes.

But the Jinyiwei hundred households sneered and said: "Xu Butou has brought back all the evidence, if Mr. Huo wants to quibble, why don't you listen to him?"

The Jin Yiwei's words made Huo Yunqi suddenly look at Xu He behind him, who was also shocked, and he frowned and said, "Did the two adults misunderstand, the humble official did not find that the Huo family was suspected of murder?"

"Xu Butou is really a nobleman who forgets things a lot," the Jinyiwei Baihu said quietly: "Didn't you bring back the corpse of a servant of the Huo family? What is the name of that person? Oh, by the way, his name is Wu Ying, a groom."

Xu He was stunned, and then explained: "My lord, Wu Ying's body was indeed brought back by the humble official. After he was killed by the mysterious man, his face was ruthlessly stripped of his flesh. The humble official is also investigating the culprit behind this incident."

"Well, Xu catcher did a good job."

The Jin Yiwei clapped his hands and praised: "I can tell you right now that Wu Ying's death was the work of Qianmian, the protector of the Xuantian Sect."

At this time, Huo Yunqi finally remembered who Wu Ying was, he said in a deep voice: "My lords, Wu Ying is a servant of my family. This matter is beyond doubt. I am also very angry at his death, but I don't know what is the relationship between him and the imperial court prisoner that your lord said?"

The Jin Yiwei said coldly: "Although Wu Ying died at the hands of the Thousand Faces Dharma King, he was not innocent. He was the assistant of the Thousand Faces Dharma King in the Eastern Capital. The evidence for this matter is solid. He is a servant of your family. You cannot absolve yourself of the blame for this matter."

Hearing this, Huo Yunqi somewhat understood that harboring criminals was probably an excuse, and the other party just wanted to take him down, so naturally there are excuses no matter what.

Seeing that Huo Yunqi fell into silence, the servants of the Huo family couldn't bear it anymore. They looked at Xu He angrily, and asked, "Captor Xu! My master came here today because he believed in you. Why did you join forces with Jin Yiwei to do such a despicable thing!"

Xu He's face was gloomy. He was a man of righteousness and never bothered to act in a mere way. Since he had promised Huo Yunqi, he would naturally do what he said.

So he immediately looked at Lord Fu Yin in the hall: "There are still many doubts about Wu Ying's death. Whether Mr. Huo is suspected or not, please give me a few more days. Once I find out the truth, I will definitely bring the real culprit to justice. No one will be allowed to go unpunished, and no innocent people will be wronged."

Xu He's words were very sincere, but it was a pity that Mr. Fu Yin shook his head.

Jin Yiwei at the side laughed and said: "Xu Butou is dedicated to his duties, he is really a pillar of the court, but this matter is only for our brothers to handle, so I don't need to bother you."

Seeing that Mr. Fu Yin did not express his opinion, Xu He became a little anxious. He looked at the two Jinyi guards and said, "My lords, can you?"

"Xu He catches the head."

Jin Yiwei called his name again, his tone was already a little weak, he said slowly: "I have already said, you don't need to care about this matter anymore, there are still many things in the yamen, enough for you to worry about."

"Your Excellency, please—"

Even though Jin Yiwei was powerful, Xu He still stood up and said, "It's not that the humble official doesn't know what to do. It's just that this case happened in the Eastern Capital, and the humble official was ordered to investigate it. I hope it will last from the beginning to the end. Jin Yiwei took people away halfway. I'm afraid. It's against the rules."

He raised his head and glanced at Lord Jin Yiwei in front of him, and continued to work hard: "Besides, the two adults are high-ranking and powerful, and take care of everything. This small matter is trivial and complicated. I'm afraid it will waste a lot of time for the adults. Why don't you leave it to the humble staff to deal with it."

"I didn't expect Xu Tutou to be a person who keeps promises and keeps his promises. It's rare, rare."

After Jin Yiwei heard this, his indifferent eyes warmed up a little, but the movements of his hands were not polite.

The two guards in Jinyi worked together, one raised his leg and kicked the two servants of the Huo family out of the hall, and the other swung a knife and slashed directly on the back of Huo Yunqi who was turning to flee. When the blood splattered, the Patriarch of the Huo family straightened forward and fell to the ground.

Xu He was shocked when he saw this, and was about to step forward, but was firmly held back by his colleagues behind him.

"Homeowner!"

The servants of the Huo family saw Huo Yunqi lying on the ground, not knowing whether he was alive or dead, and immediately became very anxious. Regardless of the public, they immediately wanted to save him.

But before they could do anything, a group of yamen policemen had already shot together and subdued them all.

No matter what the reasons for the grievances are, it is wrong to roar the court, not to mention that this group of people is still planning to take action against Jin Yiwei.

Of the two guards in brocade clothes, one lifted Huo Yunqi away from the ground, while the other turned around and glanced at Xu He, and then turned his gaze to Lord Fuyin above.

"My lord, the matter of Huo's family involves Jianghu. This criminal will be handed over to Jin Yiwei for trial. After a while, some brothers will send you an official letter. The matter is in a hurry, and the handling is rough. I hope you will forgive me."

Fu Yin got up with a smile, and he walked forward, with Maitreya Buddha-like kindness on his face, and said softly: "The affairs of the Jianghu should be handled by the Jin Yiwei. My lords act according to the law, how dare I stop it."

As he said that, he approached the guard in Jinyi, held his hand, and said earnestly: "My lord, we are all working for the imperial court. Why should the family be so clearly divided? It's too far-fetched to have a document or not. It's just a crime committed by one person. Your lord can deal with it as you like."

The Jin Yiwei also returned the smile, but still hesitantly said: "Isn't this breaking the rules? If you don't write down the crimes of the Huo family members in plain language, wouldn't it be Jin Yiwei arresting people randomly, which is not good."

"Hey—what did your lord say?" Mr. Fu Yin waved his hand and said, "The case of the three families has not yet been concluded, and there is no conclusion on whether the Huo family is innocent or not. It is naturally reasonable for the government to imprison him according to the law."

As he said that, Lord Fu Yin said earnestly: "It's just that this Huo family member is proficient in martial arts, and none of the arresters in our house are his opponents. I'm afraid ordinary prisons can't hold him, so I want to trouble the adults of Jinyiwei to take care of him for a while."

"So that's how it is," Jin Yiwei showed a look of surprise, and then nodded his head in embarrassment: "Oh, my lord and I are both officials of the imperial court, and we do things regardless of each other. Since this thief is very skilled in martial arts, let Jin Yiwei take care of him."

"Oh, then I will have to trouble my lord a lot." Fu Yin lord took Jin Yiwei's hand and sent him out of the yamen talking and laughing.

On the way, the two passed by the Xu River, Fu Yin gave each other a heavy wink, then continued talking and laughing with the Jin Yiwei and left.

Xu He lowered his head and stood there indifferently, looking at the distant figure, his eyes fixed on the jet-black flying fish suit, his tightly clenched fists were finally loosened.
