Chapter 416: Retrial of an old case, Jiangnan Pacification Commissioner

After a night of silence, Ning Fan and the others gradually woke up from their practice. Xiao Longnu's usually cold face was now a little rosy, and the look in her eyes when she looked at Ning Fan was also calm and had a strange color.

"How do you feel?"

"Wonderful!"

"Sir, you..." Xiao Longnu looked extremely ashamed and angry, and whispered: "I mean, has your cultivation improved?"

"Yes, I broke through a small realm!"

"Yes!"

Xiao Longnu's voice became as thin as a mosquito, and she stretched out her hand and sent out an internal force, covering her body with clothes, and looked at Ning Fan and said: "Sir, this trip is over, do you want to rush back to Huainan?"

"No hurry!"

"The matter in Nanliang County is not over yet, let's go to the county city first."

"Okay!"

The two got up directly. Xiao Longnu was not feeling well, so they went to find a carriage first. Ning Fan seemed to be a little depressed after not sleeping all night.

The carriage was speeding along the ancient road, swaying and shaking. For Ning Fan, who was used to walking on the smooth bluestone road, it was really a torture.

County City.

Zhao Family.

A beautiful young woman with a slim figure was washing clothes in the yard, and a young man dressed as a servant rushed in quickly.

"Miss Bai."

"Something big happened, guess what happened?"

Bai Qinglian looked at him with a puzzled look, and the servant smiled and said, "The Jinyiwei is going to reopen the investigation of the Bai family case. Now, all the officials of the county governor's office have been brought into the yamen for interrogation."

"What!"

Bai Qinglian's face showed a deep shock. Seeing this, the servant hurriedly said, "Miss Bai, the injustice of your Bai family has finally been cleared."

"Is this true?"

Bai Qinglian still found it hard to believe. The incident was handled by the county governor's office and almost became an ironclad case. Who dared to overturn the case of the county governor's office?

Can the Jinyiwei do it?

"Really!"

"It's true. I won't tell you now. I guess the second young master will come to tell you the good news soon."

"I'll leave first."

The servant left quickly, hiding all the way. Not long after, he saw a well-dressed and handsome young man walked in. Seeing Bai Qinglian's absent-minded look, he stepped forward and said, "Qinglian, I have good news for you."

Zhao Linggong saw that he didn't say a word, so he continued, "The injustice of your Bai family has finally been found out by the higher-ups, and the Jinyiwei is ready to intervene."

"Brother Shi, what kind of organization is the Jinyiwei?"

"No matter how powerful they are, can they overturn the case of the county governor's mansion?"

"Hahaha!" Zhao Linggong laughed out loud when he heard it, "Qinglian, you haven't been out for many years, so you may not know that the Jinyiwei are ancestor-level figures. As long as they are targeting a case, there is nothing they can't do."

"It doesn't matter if you are a high-ranking official, a noble family, or even a royal relative."

"As long as the Jinyiwei wants to deal with you, no one can help."

"The emperor has granted permission to kill first and report later!"

Hearing Zhao Linggong's words, Bai Qinglian's eyes also showed some hope: "Brother Shi, I want to leave the house, can you help me?"

"This..."

Zhao Linggong was immediately entangled, and said with an embarrassed look: "Back then, in order to protect you, my father used a lot of connections. They didn't let you show up outside. If you are targeted by those people in the county government again... I'm afraid my father can't protect you."

"Brother Shi, this is the only chance for my Bai family to redress our grievances. Besides, I have been looking forward to this day day and night for the past eight years!"

"Please, help me!"

Bai Qinglian knelt in front of Zhao Linggong, her face full of tears and pleading.

"That's... okay!"

"But you must not show up outside, and let no one know your identity!"

"Got it?"

"Yeah!"

...

Jinyiwei Yamen.

Wu Wende, the governor of Jiangnan Jinyiwei, personally tried the case of the Bai family. In the hall, several middle-aged men in official uniforms stood.

The atmosphere in the whole hall seemed particularly surprised. More than a dozen Jinyiwei in flying fish uniforms stood with knives, their faces showing a cold and stern look that kept people away.

"Go to court!"

"Mighty!"

With a loud shout, Wu Wende sat up straight in front of the table, looked at the officials below, and said loudly: "This time, I personally came to Nanliang County to try the case of the Bai family colluding with horse bandits. As far as I know, the case was handled by Nanliang County in person?"

"That's right!"

Standing in the center of the hall was a middle-aged man with a controlled height, and he also exuded a sense of momentum from being in a high position for a long time.

"Sir, although the Jinyiwei has the power to monitor the world, I am the governor of a county and was appointed by the previous emperor. I came here to assist you in the retrial, not to be your prisoner!"

"Please think twice, Sir!"

"That's right, we are the third-rank officials of the court. Even if we are involved in the case, it should be tried by the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple. How can the Jinyiwei set up a private office without the official documents of the court?"

"How dare you!"

Wu Wende shouted in a low voice and slapped the wake-up stick in his hand. The Jinyiwei around him all drew their long swords and pointed them at the people in the hall. It seemed that as long as the pacification envoy gave an order, they would rush up and kill them!

"Gudu!"

Zheng Luo couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and a chill rose in his heart. He looked at the Jinyiwei pacification envoy above him with a little more fear.

"I am the Jinyiwei pacification envoy appointed by His Majesty to patrol Jiangnan and supervise all officials. I can execute first and report later. The imperial power has granted me special permission. Even if I have to hold a trial, it is within the duties of the Jinyiwei."

"If you are dissatisfied, you can write to the court and ask His Majesty to punish me!"

"However, now we are in court. If you refuse to cooperate, don't blame me for using criminal law!"

"By the way, the court of my Jinyiwei is not the court of your county government, and there are not so many rules!"

Hearing Wu Wende's words, Zheng Luo's face gradually sank, and he looked at the county lieutenant beside him, who nodded slightly.

"Sir Wu, I have already closed the case of the Bai family colluding with the bandits, and all the files are recorded!"

"I don't know why, but why is it being retried eight years later?"

"Humph!"

Wu Wende snorted coldly, opened the files on the table, and whispered: "Why is it being retried? Don't you know?"

"Do you think that if you kill the gentleman who forged the letter and behead the entire Bai family, the case can't be overturned?"

"The law is long and there is no loophole!"

"I have ordered people to investigate. If you are stubborn, my Jinyiwei will not show mercy."

"Take a look for yourself!"

Wu Wende threw the evidence in his hand directly to the ground. Zheng Luo motioned the official next to him to pick it up. The latter picked it up and took a look, and his face suddenly changed.
