This martial saint is too generous

"I gave the coachman money because he wanted to rent a house for his wife at home. It was completely out of kindness of my heart."

"As for the golden leaves given to the commander who guards the city, it's because many brothers' shoes are torn. I am the Northern Eagle Flying General canonized by the Holy Spirit, and I am also a soldier. I just got some rewards, but I can't eat enough by myself, regardless of my brothers. There are no shoes to wear...the gold leaves are used to buy shoes for the brothers, is there a problem?"

Qin Jinyang asked coldly without any hurry or delay.

"Hahaha... Hahaha... Ridiculous, simply ridiculous... Are you kind-hearted? Do you have the world in mind? I think you are shameless!"

Wu Zhiqian sneered twice and asked sarcastically: "Criminal Qin Jinyang, do you believe what you say? Do you think I will believe it?"

Lu Chongqing frowned behind the case, and he quietly observed the prince's expression.

well……

The prince's expression was also ugly.

This case... is difficult to judge.

Although Wu Zhiqian produced evidence, the evidence was not very solid and could not completely prove Qin Jinyang's guilt.

But after all, it was evidence, and Qin Jinyang could not prove his innocence.

This minister is too aggrieved and is suffering from splints on both sides.

"What I'm telling you is the truth... There is His Highness the Crown Prince in the hall who knows the truth, and there is the Minister who can tell right from wrong. You are a little servant, does it matter whether you believe it or not?"

"If I reward the coachman with a few taels of silver, it can prove that I harbor criminals. Then I will also give you a few taels of silver. Are you also my accomplice?"

Qin Jinyang retorted with disdain.

The lobby was silent.

Shi Yingnan wanted to scold Wu Zhiqian, but Wan Duoyan stopped him.

This guy is really stunned...

The Prince of the East Palace is here to sit in charge, but you are yelling and screaming. How unbecoming is this? You are young, why should you leave a bad impression on others.

Your master has worked hard to train you into a talented person, but you have offended all the noble people in one go. What is that?

As for Qin Jinyang, this evidence obviously cannot convict him.

The fourth child also wanted to rush forward, but was stopped by the third child and the seniors from the Ministry of War.

Their thoughts were the same as Wan Dueye's.

With His Royal Highness the Crown Prince present, the fourth child should be calmer. After all, he will still be hanging around the court in the future.

Although others also wanted to stand up for Qin Jinyang, they had a sense of restraint in their hearts.

As long as Qin Jinyang is not convicted, there is still a chance.

…

"Haha... He is so sharp-tongued, he is indeed a cunning thing."

"I have known for a long time that you would deny it. Do you think I only have these pieces of evidence? You are naive... Someone, bring up the evidence."

Wu Zhiqian sneered and flicked his sleeves again.

After the words fell, everyone in the audience turned their heads and looked eagerly outside the hall. Even the prince and prince Gao had curious faces.

Soon, the soldiers from the Criminal Department trotted to the lobby carrying wooden trays.

On the wooden plate is a piece of clothing.

"Old man...are you familiar with this dress?"

Wu Zhiqian walked to the evidence, picked up the clothes, carried them to the old coachman, and asked word by word in a very slow tone.

"Remember...I remember..."

The old man was so frightened that he broke out in cold sweat. He kowtowed and shouted.

"explain……"

Wu Zhiqian said.

"They are the clothes of the wanted criminal Mu Zhihe."

"That day, Northern Eagle Flying General and the wanted criminal bribed the city guard and urged me to leave the city quickly... After leaving the city, I galloped on my horse, and the wanted criminal in the carriage also changed his outfit. And the old clothes he replaced , and threw it into the river outside the city. After returning to the city, I felt sorry for the good material of the clothes, so I went out of the city again and quietly salvaged the clothes."

The old coachman stammered, and after several pauses, he finally spoke a complete sentence.

"This dress belongs to the fugitive Mu Zhihe... The Evidence Department of the Ministry of Punishment has carefully investigated and found that the fabric of this dress is a gift from the Holy One. Only the palace can weave it... Chief Wu Heqian has personally checked the records of His Majesty's rewards. , during that time, only Mushidi received a reward."

Wu Zhiqian shook his clothes.

The old coachman shivered and wished he could burrow his head deep into the floor.

When Wu Heqian heard his elder brother calling his name, he quickly raised his head.

So touched.

The eldest brother is worthy of being the eldest brother, and he always thinks about brotherhood in his heart. Although he has caused trouble to the eldest brother, he still thinks about himself when he has the opportunity to make meritorious deeds.

…

Uh-huh!

Everyone's eyes turned to Qin Jinyang again, eagerly looking forward to Qin Jinyang's explanation.

"A piece of clothing picked up from the river can prove that I harbored criminals? Don't you think it's far-fetched?"

"Besides, what can a piece of clothing prove?"

Qin Jinyang sneered.

By the way, the evidence produced by the Wu family is not vicious at all... it is far from impeccable.

If the prince sided with the Wu family, these evidences might get him killed.

But the evidence is too vague. Once the prince wants to help him, the Wu family will definitely lose.

"Hahaha, I knew you wanted to deny it... One piece of evidence may not prove that you committed a crime, but if several pieces of evidence are added together, why are you still making excuses? Are all the coincidences in the world accounted for by you alone? Already?"

"Forget it...you have a tough talk, you can make nonsense, but I, Wu Zhiqian, can't...you want evidence, right? Then I will give you evidence...someone..."

Wu Zhiqian suddenly shouted again.

Everyone in the room frowned.

Any evidence?

He can actually produce evidence?

Some people have begun to have doubts in their hearts... Yes, if one piece of evidence is an accident, then the addition of several pieces of evidence would be too much of a coincidence.

…

Soon, another soldier from the Criminal Department trotted over.

This time, the soldier held a short sword in his wooden tray.

The scabbard is golden and inlaid with two black gemstones. It looks like a precious sword at first glance.

Qin Jinyang frowned when he saw the sword.

Black Lan Knife!

This was Xu Yuansheng's sword when he was young. As Xu Yuansheng became stronger and stronger, this sword was not strong enough and was replaced.

But Xu Yuansheng did not throw it away, but paid tribute to it in the ancestral hall.

Xu Yuansheng's first adventure was to use the Heilan knife to open the secret palace.

Xu Yuansheng founded Helan Villa, and Hei Lan Dao accompanied him throughout the process.

In the end, the Heilan Sword became the owner's token of Helan Villa. Xu Yuansheng drew cakes for the inner disciples more than once. Whoever gets the Heilan Sword in the future will be the future young owner of the village.

After Xu Yuansheng died, the Black Lan Sword naturally fell into Qin Jinyang's hands.

When leaving Yundong Province, Qin Jinyang originally planned to leave the knife at the villa, but Wu Shengshi insisted on letting Qin Jinyang hold it.

First of all, Qin Jinyang is the owner of Helan Villa. Although Qin Jinyang does not deserve it, the title belongs to him.

Secondly, although the Black Lan Sword is somewhat insufficient in Xu Yuansheng's hands, the third-grade Qin Jinyang is enough for him to use the fourth-grade Dzogchen, and it is also a rare weapon.

This is weird.

Qin Jinyang squinted his eyes.

As soon as he moved into Beiying Mansion, he hung the Black Lan Knife in his bedroom.

In a sensitive place like the imperial capital, hanging knives and running around could easily cause misunderstandings among the imperial guards.

…

"This weapon is your Qin Jinyang's sword, right?"

"The Punishment Department traced Mu Zhihe to a hiding place, but unfortunately he had already escaped... Although he was not caught, the Punishment Department found the weapon... How do you explain this time?"

"You wouldn't say that the Criminal Department stole your knife and then put the blame on you, right?"

"Or maybe the criminal Mu Zhihe made a trip to Beiying Mansion on his way to escape, specifically to steal your knife."

Wu Zhiqian asked slowly.

His expression is extremely calm. After all, he has been investigating cases for a lifetime and can get to the bottom of almost every case. He can be regarded as Detective Wu.

"By the way, Cui Sixan, the slave in your house, is a real strong man. It should be impossible for a criminal to steal your weapons without telling him, right?"

"No one in our criminal department can steal your knife under Cui Sixhan's eyes."

Wu Zhiqian added another sentence.

This sentence also completely blocked Qin Jinyang's sophistry.

…

The audience was silent, and people's eyes kept drifting away from Hei Landao and Qin Jinyang.

yes.

Why is Qin Jinyang's saber in Mu Zhihe's hiding place?

This time, even the fourth child began to hesitate.

Could it be...that the young master was negligent?

The Ministry of Punishment did find out where Mu Zhihe was hiding, which was the place where he informed the young master.

But when the Punishment Department investigated, Mu Zhihe had already been transferred, and the Punishment Department missed him.

The Ministry of Punishment actually found the young master's saber.

Damn...

Could it be that I harmed the young master?

The fourth child felt guilty as never before.

…

Qin Jinyang frowned slightly.

The Black Lan Sword was clearly hanging in the bedroom, so why did it end up in the hands of the Criminal Department?

theft!

right……

Definitely theft.

But Wu Zhiqian was right, Cui Sishan could even touch the sixth grade, and no one could steal his knife under his nose.

Cui Sishan has guarded Beiying Mansion conscientiously for so many years. Even when he was arrested, he did not come to the lobby of the Criminal Department to join in the fun and still guarded Beiying Mansion.

The little thief has no chance.

Could it be...

Are they the eldest and second child?

Qin Jinyang turned his head suddenly and looked at the eldest and second eldest in the crowd.

Sure enough, when the two of them came into contact with Qin Jinyang's gaze, they subconsciously lowered their heads to avoid it.

Although the two people quickly came to their senses and began to look directly at Qin Jinyang, looking very indignant, their guilty conscience at that moment had exposed many problems.

Qin Jinyang knew it well.

It was the eldest and second child who stole his knives.

That's right... Cui Sixhan is in charge of Beiying Mansion, but Baimi Yishu, these two sons are his weakness.

…

"Hmph, the brothers in the Criminal Department stayed up all night every day. Several brothers were so tired that they fell ill directly. We finally found the hiding place of the wanted criminals, but you took advantage of us and leaked the news..."

"It is difficult to guard against thieves day and night. Qin Jinyang, do you, a Northern Eagle flying general, deserve the trust of the Holy Emperor?"

Wu Zhiqian turned around and slapped the crowd hard.

Lu Chongqing was sitting behind the case and was startled by the sound of slapping.

However, he did not pursue Wu Zhiqian's mistake of overstepping his authority and filming Gavel. Instead, he lamented that Wu Zhiqian handled the matter beautifully.

With so much evidence presented, even His Highness the Crown Prince could not find anything inappropriate.

Qin Jinyang is finished.

Once His Highness the Crown Prince gives the order, it will be time to convict.

The biggest problem now is how to appease these royal relatives.

…

"Come here... I'll wait for you to be punished..."

"With so much evidence in front of you, you actually dare to defy the Ministry of Punishment. Today, I insist on letting you confess in person...Bring up all the torture instruments."

Wu Zhiqian pointed at Qin Jinyang and scolded him sternly.

"Wait a minute... where is the garrison commander who took away the gold leaf? Let him come out!"

Suddenly, someone interrupted.

It was Zhang Puqing, the general of the Ministry of War. He stood up in full view and walked to Qin Jinyang's side.

"General Zhang, the Ministry of Justice is reviewing the case. Why is your Ministry of War involved in the case? You have exceeded your authority."

Wu Zhiqian squinted his eyes.

Zhang Puqing and Su Zhannan are sworn enemies, and Qin Jinyang is Su Zhannan's man. You don't know that clearly?

The Holy One is most taboo about the Ministry of War interfering in the affairs of the imperial capital. You are causing trouble for yourself in front of His Royal Highness.

"I did not participate in the trial of the Ministry of Justice. Just now, Minister Wu said that Qin Jinyang bribed the commander of the garrison with gold leaves. As a member of the Ministry of War, I want to see this commander... Whether it is really a bribe, I have to report it to the commander in person. Ask."

Zhang Puqing stood in the hall with a cold face and asked calmly.

Qin Jinyang said just now that the six gold leaves were to buy shoes for the defenders... For some reason, Zhang Puqing had an intuition in his heart that he thought Qin Jinyang was not lying.

People in the Ministry of War have always been passionate and easily moved.

Although the border troops were jealous of the defenders' easy life, when encountering difficulties, everyone still shared the same hatred.

"That commander has fled in fear of crime and his whereabouts are unknown... People from the Criminal Department are tracing his whereabouts!"

Wu Zhiqian's face was expressionless.

Trouble.

The only thing Wu Beiqian didn't do well was that he failed to assassinate the young commander and he escaped.

The Wu family is doing their best to hunt him down, and I believe they will be silenced soon.

The young commander had a wife and children. His wife and children have been arrested by the Ministry of Punishments. There is no news about him.

"People are missing? Since everyone has run away, where did the Criminal Department get the evidence of the six gold leaves?"

Zhang Puqing asked again.

"Search home!"

Wu Zhiqian's expression was indifferent.

"Where are the young commander's family?"

Zhang Puqing continued to ask.

"Having been arrested by the Ministry of Punishment, General Zhang should not continue to ask questions. It involves the confidentiality of the Ministry of Punishment's handling of the case and it is inconvenient to disclose it."

Wu Zhiqian became impatient.

The biggest taboo in perjury is to talk too much and ask too many questions.

As long as you talk too much, sooner or later there will be flaws.

Too many words lead to mistakes.

"The commander's acceptance of bribes is the commander's own crime. Why does the Ministry of Punishment want to arrest his family members? Please give an order to release the commander's family members."

Zhang Puqing refused to give up.

Bang!

Wu Zhiqian clenched his fists, and the bones of his fingers made sounds.

He hated being aggressive.

"Until the criminal is caught, the family members cannot be released... But please don't worry, General Zhang. The family members are innocent after all. They will eat well and drink well in the Criminal Department and will not suffer hardship."

"General Zhang, the Ministry of Punishment and the Ministry of War will explain the matter regarding the family members, but I am currently reviewing the case, so please don't interrupt... Someone is here, I will serve you with the punishment!"

Wu Zhiqian flicked his sleeves, his expression already unkind.

…

There was a ruckus.

As if they were well prepared, a group of people from the Criminal Department rushed up.

This group of people had ferocious expressions and full of hostility. At first glance, they looked like murderers who had been tormenting others for many years.

They also brought in blood-stained torture instruments.

The instruments of torture have not been used yet, and the mere appearance of them is already frightening.

Shi Yingnan immediately became anxious. If Wan Duoyan hadn't been suppressing him, he would have jumped out and scolded Wu Zhiqian.

Jiang Youliang's arms were trembling, and his head was smoking with anger.

But his father was by his side, and he didn't dare to make any mistakes.

I am a relative of the emperor, but just because I am a relative of the emperor, the emperor is strictly prohibited from interfering in the affairs of the officials.

The fourth child was thirsty. He even wanted to take Qin Jinyang and escape, but there were many experts from the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of War, and there were even more experts gathered around the prince. He was like an ant, and he would die if he rushed forward.

He just wished he could suffer for the young master.

Some people hesitated in their hearts and began to doubt Qin Jinyang.

Some people have deep faith in Qin Jinyang, but this group of people can do nothing but worry.

Seeing that Qin Jinyang was about to be punished again, the case reached a deadlock again.

…

"slow……"

At this moment, a voice suddenly appeared outside the lobby.

Everyone turned around subconsciously, and the prince looked over curiously.

It was Wu Shuangqi, the minister of punishment.

There were many people behind him, and he entered the lobby aggressively.

"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, paying homage to Lord Shangshu, paying homage to Prince Luan..."

Wu Shuangqi saluted respectfully.

"Wu Shuangqi, I am handling a case. You interrupted the trial and showed contempt for the court. What crime should you be guilty of? As a minister of the Ministry of Punishment, you know the law and break it. The crime will be increased by one degree. You still haven't pleaded guilty!"

Wu Zhiqian scolded angrily with a dark face.

Wu Shuangqi was his biggest competitor for the position of Minister. The two men had been fighting openly and secretly for many years. Every time this person appeared, nothing good happened.

Suddenly, Wu Zhiqian's eyelids twitched, and his heart began to panic.

what's the situation?

Why am I panicking?

"Wu Shuangqi, what are you going to do?"

Lu Chongqing also looked curious.

Out of Shangshu's instinct, he felt that Wu Shuangqi's appearance was related to Qin Jinyang.

"Master Shangshu, my subordinates want to sue Wu Zhiqian, the Minister of Criminal Affairs..."

"In order to satisfy his own selfish desires, Wu Zhiqian fabricated so-called evidence and framed Qin Jinyang, a hero of the imperial court..."

Wu Shuangqi was not polite either, his words were sharp and his sword was as sharp as Wu Zhiqian's.

…

Uh-huh!

The whole place was in an uproar.

what's the situation?

The Minister of Punishment, suing another Minister of Punishment?

The content of the complaint was to frame the Northern Eagle Flying General.

Could it be...

Is Qin Jinyang really unjust?

The prince frowned slightly... something was wrong.

"Hahaha, wonderful... Zhongzhou Imperial Court is indeed wonderful... I did not make this trip in vain!"

Prince Gao clapped his thighs with an expression on his face that he was watching a good show.

The others looked at each other in confusion, unable to see what Wu Shuangqi was trying to do.

The faces of the Wu family were gloomy.

Wu Beiqian glared at Wu Heqian again, he really wanted to tear this idiot into pieces.

In the hall, the eldest brother and the second child looked at each other, both of them had an ominous premonition.

Qin Jinyang also looked at Wu Shuangqi curiously.

This man... I don't seem to know you, but you are trying to make excuses at this time, and I appreciate you very much.

If he is really convicted, he will have to go back to the dungeon to wait for trial. At that time, he will have no choice but to escape from prison.

Qin Jinyang doesn't want to escape from prison yet.

…

"Are you suing Wu Zhiqian? Do you have any evidence?"

Lu Zhongqing stood up, his whole face turned green.

What a shame.

This is a real family scandal.

Two of his closest men actually sued each other in front of His Royal Highness, which was a slap in the face.

"Someone...bring up the evidence..."

Wu Shuangqi stood up and said loudly.

Everyone was stunned.

Lead?

Lead evidence?

What the hell.

Soon, the answer was revealed.

Sure enough, Wu Shuangqi's men brought evidence.

It was a horse and an ordinary carriage.

"Please come and see this horse, Lord Shangshu..."

Wu Shuangqi patted the horse's head.

Everyone was even more confused... What's so good about horses?

"This is an old horse, a very old horse..."

Suddenly, Jiang Youliang shouted.

At the same time, his heart began to beat.

Hearing this, many people came to their senses... Old horse!

"Is this horse yours?"

Wu Shuangqi looked at the old coachman and pointed at the old horse.

"Ah...it's mine, it's mine!"

The old man nodded repeatedly.

"This horse is very old. Although it can still pull a cart, it can't move fast at all... If there is one person in the carriage, it may be able to circle the imperial capital in one day... But if there are two people, the old horse is not strong enough. It’s impossible to go that far…”

"He helped the criminals get out of the city and galloped all the way...Aren't you afraid that this old horse will die from exhaustion?"

"That's all, I'll just treat the old horse as full of life... But you have already returned to the imperial capital and went out to pick up clothes again... After all this back and forth, your horse is not exhausted to death?"

The old man was shaking all over, sweating profusely, and couldn't say a word.

"Tell me... who made you talk nonsense!" Wu Shuangqi originally looked kind and cheerful.

Suddenly, Wu Shuangqi shouted loudly, and the old man fell down directly. There was yellow liquid on the ground.

He was frightened out of his wits.

"I, I, I... I, I, I... I..."

The old man was trembling all over, and this was the only word in his mouth for a long time.

"Someone threatened you...Someone kidnapped your wife and threatened you with your wife...I know this..."

"Don't worry, your wife, I have sent someone to rescue you..."

Wu Shuangqi said coldly.

The old man driving the car suddenly burst into tears and collapsed completely.
