The evil woman becomes the concubine and the villain is crushed to ashes

Looking at Ma Yue's submissive look, Lord Qin is the head of the Ministry of Justice after all. Naturally, he knows the ins and outs of everyone in his territory.

The person in front of him has been here for nearly a year and seems to have some dealings with the Ninth Prince. Lord Qin knows about this situation, but he just turns a blind eye to it.

After all, which of the six ministries in the imperial court doesn't have its own powerful people? If you replace one, there is another one. It's better to keep him in the open and don't use him anyway.

However, Ma Yue seems to know a little too much at the moment, and it is not convenient to let outsiders know about this matter for the time being. But because of Ma Yue's identity, Lord Qin cannot do anything to him.

After all, he is just a minor official in the Ministry of Justice. If any accident happens and the news gets out, it will be his own people who will be in trouble.

Besides, he really didn't have the energy to clean up more messes. What he was more worried about right now were those servants who were bragging in the restaurant.

What's more, keeping Ma Yue will be of great use!

After careful consideration, Lord Qin finally showed a smile on his face, but he was always serious and his brows were already covered with wrinkles, so even if he smiled now, it seemed a little stiff.

And it's even more terrifying.

Ma Yue swallowed and quickly lowered his head.

Seeing this, Lord Qin softened his voice and said, "You are Ma Yue, right? Not bad, you have such a good memory, and you will definitely have a bright future. What you told me here today, don't tell anyone after you leave."

"And this coincidence is a good thing for you. I will be promoting a group of people in the near future, and your performance in the Ministry of Justice has always been outstanding."

"If something like this happens again, you will certainly not be left out. Do your best in the future. I happen to be in need of a clerk. You will follow me in the future. When I am not around, you will listen to Sun Laiyun."

Ma Yue was like being hit by a huge pie, his face full of confusion and shock. Sun Laiyun pushed him.

"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and thank the master!"

Ma Yue just reacted now and bowed to Lord Qin with a look of joy on his face.

"Thank you very much, sir! I will do my best to serve you. I will not let you down!"

Lord Qin nodded, seeming quite satisfied.

Sun Laiyun understood what the adults meant, waved his hand and let Ma Yue go out.

Ma Yue left in a daze. When the door was closed again, Sun Laiyun's face became serious again. He looked at the adult. As expected, the adult looked very unhappy.

Sun Laiyun said seriously, "Sir, we thought Miss Liu's case was strange back then. It was just too coincidental. Now it seems that someone is really interfering. Who knows, it's not just bad luck. The Third Young Master must have been tricked!"

"Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that something happened on that day? Censor Liu has been pestering you and the Qin family for three years. There must be a murderer behind this. We can't let this opportunity go!"

Lord Qin nodded.

"You're right. There was something fishy about the case three years ago. But Ma Yue suddenly ran into a few servants, and those servants happened to mention Guo Xiong. Isn't this a coincidence?"

Sun Laiyun paused and asked, "Sir, do you mean... that Ma Yue was sent out intentionally?"

Lord Qin shook his head, his eyes deep.

"I can't tell. Ma Yue is apparently the Ninth Prince's man. Could he have been sent by the Ninth Prince? But Ma Yue could also be someone else's man... Of course, it's also possible that we just bumped into each other by chance."

"No matter what, we can't make subjective assumptions without evidence, but now that this clue has come out, we can't just turn a blind eye to it."

"My Qin family has been humiliated for so many years. We can't keep enduring this. Do we really have to wait until that old man dies in his coffin before our family can be at peace?"

Thinking of this, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in Lord Qin's eyes.

"If I can catch this clue and find out who is behind the plot against my family, I will certainly not let him go. It will also be a good opportunity for Liu Yushi to see that my family is not the indirect murderer of his daughter as he thinks."

"I don't expect that old man to make it up to us, but as long as he can continue to charge forward and target the real murderer, it can offset the injustice he has done to my Qin family over the past three years."

When Lord Qin spoke of Censor Liu, his tone was still hateful, and Sun Laiyun did not dare to speak.

After a while, Lord Qin finally calmed down and gave instructions to Sun Laiyun.

"Alright, now that we know something is fishy, ​​we can't just ignore it. Send someone to keep an eye on Ma Yue. No one is allowed to leave without my order. No matter where he goes, keep an eye on him."

Sun Laiyun immediately agreed: "I obey your command!"

Lord Qin narrowed his eyes, changed into a more relaxed posture, sat back in the chair, and after a while, he asked again.

"Old Sun, if what Ma Yue said is true, the identities of those servants are very suspicious."

"You and I are both very clear about Miss Liu's case. You also know what role the ruffian played in Miss Liu's case and what his fate was."

"But if what Ma Yue said is true, what are the identities of those servants? And who is the young master they are talking about?"

Sun Laiyun followed the adults' thoughts and an incredible guess emerged in his mind. He said with a little excitement.

"Sir, Miss Liu's case was concluded very hastily. Someone must have tampered with it. Unfortunately, we don't know who did it. That person was very cautious. All the witnesses on that street who could testify are dead."

"Those ruffians are also witnesses. If what Ma Yue said is true, the identities of those servants are very suspicious. From their tone, they don't sound like people who are completely unaware of the incident, nor do they sound like people who heard about it from others. Instead, they sound like the parties involved!"

The more Sun Laiyun spoke, the faster his tone became.

"Sir, those servants, could they be Guo Xiong's cronies? But then, who were those who died three years ago? They can't be back from the dead, right?"

Lord Qin's eyes moved slightly, and he gritted his teeth and said.

"I don't believe in ghosts and gods. The dead cannot be resurrected, but what if someone replaces the original with a fake one before he dies?"

Sun Laiyun was shocked.

"This, this case was brought before the Emperor. If someone really dared to replace the original with a fake one, then the person behind it would be guilty of deceiving the Emperor. Then the Jingzhao prefect..."

"This matter has nothing to do with him!"

Lord Qin interrupted Sun Laiyun and sneered.

"If the Jingzhao prefect is smart enough to clear himself of this matter, then at most he would be charged with dereliction of duty, since the person was replaced under his command after all."

"But it doesn't matter. If those servants are really Guo Xiong's cronies, then they are all murderers!"
