After traveling through time, I took command and led the troops to conquer the mountains and rivers.

Chapter 147 Audacious
Originally, this matter should have been handed over to Weijiang Governor Li Daxun for review, but Li Daxun became ill after knowing that the deceased was Wu Dazhuang.

Those of his subordinates may be involved. An accident occurred during the sacrifice, and those who were offended were all merchants.

They were afraid of offending people from the Chamber of Commerce, so they pushed away.

Li Yanzhao had no choice but to report the matter to the court, and the emperor gave Li Yanzhao full responsibility for the matter.

As a brave general, Li Yanzhao was the most appropriate person to lead the troops in the war.

But this investigation was like studying in a school for him, and it could kill him.

If there is one person who is suitable to handle this case, it is Liang Qifan of Bashu Capital.

But not to mention that Liang Qifan's official position was one level higher than that of Li Daxun, he had just acquired Lin'er and he really couldn't leave.

He could only choose the general among the cripples and handed the case to Lin Gongxun.

The case was decided to be retried, and Lin Gongxun only needed to report to Li Yanzhao and Li Daxun.

The next day, Lin Gongxun ordered people to summon Mr. Qian. He was the beginning of the sacrifice.

In order not to affect the prestige of the governor's government office in the hearts of the people, Lin Gongxun ordered people to take them to the back hall of the government office for interrogation.

They still used the same rhetoric, and even Mr. Qian was carried in.

People from the Chamber of Commerce came to the back hall immediately and were quite dissatisfied with Lin Gongxun's actions.

Lin Gongxun sneered, "What's the matter? Do you think I am someone you can crush and round?"

Lin Gongxun took out the emperor's imperial order and raised his hand.

"This is a token given by the emperor. I have full authority to handle this case. If anyone wants to mess around, it depends on what I have in hand."

Yu Jia secretly laughed at the side, pretending to be a tiger and using it up and down. This was obviously given to Li Yanzhao by the emperor, and Lin Gongxun used it very smoothly.

The people from the Chamber of Commerce looked at each other, but finally gave in.

"Mr. Qian, you said you were exhausted and returned home. Can anyone prove it?"

Mr. Qian reluctantly sat up and said in a hoarse voice, "Sir, even my nephew can prove it."

"Call the witness!"

I saw a few well-dressed and elegant people strutting into the back hall. After a perfunctory salute, they stood up on their own.

"Bold, sir, have you got up?"

Yu Jia shouted, which frightened several people.

Among them, the man wearing a red robe, with oily hair and pink face, sneered, "Sir, you are so impressive. If you don't know, you would think that a vulgar warrior in the military camp has become an official!"

Lin Gongxun's face was gloomy and his tone was brisk.

"Oh? So you don't know, then I'll give you twenty military sticks to open your eyes!"

Yu Jia became excited when she heard that someone was about to be beaten, but her heart sank when she saw the reaction of the government servant next to her.

The government officials on the side looked hesitant, but no one dared to move.

The red man laughed proudly, "You're not qualified to act arrogant here!"

Suddenly the atmosphere in the hall was like the dark clouds before a thunderstorm, and everyone was so depressed that they couldn't breathe.

"Captain, I think this Weijiang River is not the emperor's world, but the chamber of commerce's world."

Then Yu Jia blurted out, "Scholars, farmers, industry and merchants, when did a merchant become so powerful?"

"What do you mean?" the man in red yelled.

No one in the hall stopped him, even Qian Lao, who was lying on the wooden chair, wanted to see what Yu Jia had to say.

"Do you have an official position?"

The man in red said: "No!"

"Have you made significant contributions to Weijiang, such as saving the emperor's life, or saving the life of the Supreme Emperor?"

The man in red's face became more and more ugly: "No!"

Yu Jia looked him up and down disdainfully, and then curled her lips in disdain.

"You have nothing and have never done anything. How can you, a man in pudding and white clothes, have the guts to challenge the Emperor's personally appointed Imperial Envoy?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned for a moment, and Lin Gongxun rolled his eyes at her calmly. This tall hat is also worn too high, making it difficult to get off the stage.

What if someone wants an imperial edict?
How could Yu Jia know what imperial edict this imperial envoy would want.

She had only seen on TV that when an imperial envoy handles a case, his power is superior to that of local officials.

The people in the Chamber of Commerce were stunned by this "imperial envoy". At this time, Lin Gongxun played with the emperor's royal token just right, and everyone became nervous.

Seeing that the man in red had ceased his activities, Lin Gongxun continued to ask.

"Tell me one by one, what kind of tea did you drink at Qian's hometown that day?"

Mr. Qian's face was full of nervousness and he coughed. The eyes of several people fell on Mr. Qian.

"Mr. Qian is not feeling well. Can the doctor come and take a look?"

Lin Gongxun had a gentle look on his face, as if he really cared about his condition.

Mr. Qian quickly waved his hand, "I'm fine, but I suddenly got a little excited when I heard the adults talking about tea. I don't have the habit of drinking tea on weekdays."

The few people understood, looked at each other, and then came up with something to say.

A thin man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks bowed his hands in salute.

"Sir, when we went to Qian's hometown that day, we didn't have tea."

Lin Gongxun nodded, as if accepting their statement.

"Then what did you drink?"

Mr. Qian coughed again.

"We're not drinking!"

"What kind of meat did you eat?"

cough!

"We didn't eat meat!"

Repeatedly, even the normal questions became abnormal.

"How can you go to my uncle's house and not let you drink tea, drink, or eat as a sacrifice to the God of the Sea?"

"Common people will treat you with simple meals when relatives come to their homes, let alone those of you who have a lot of money?"

Lin Gongxun continued to attack, "Isn't it because I didn't entertain you with this because I did something else?"

Seeing Lin Gongxun stop, Yu Jia took over.

"Did you go to the ancestral hall enshrining the statue of Poseidon?"

"That's absolutely not the case!"

"No, no, we didn't do anything."

"Just drinking tea and chatting as usual."

"Oh?"

Lin Gongxun looked incomprehensible, "What kind of tea did you drink?"

At this time, several people wanted to cut out the tongue of the person who talked about drinking tea and chatting.

He had already denied drinking tea, why did he mention it again?
Seeing several people looking at each other in silence, Lin Gongxun signaled to the officials on his left and right.

"Come on, let's wait for the punishment!"

At this time, the government officials were very majestic. In the past, they had always been angry with these bastards. Now that they had a backer, they went to ask for torture tools in high spirits.

When several people saw this scene, they were not afraid in the face of danger. After all, they were businessmen and were used to seeing strong winds and waves, so they were not afraid.

"May I ask, sir, why are you punishing the little ones? The little ones forgot what kind of tea they drank. Is this wrong?"

Yu Jia laughed loudly, "It's not that you forgot what tea to drink, it's that your testimonies are inconsistent."

"You are so confident in giving false testimony. Who gave you the courage?"
