The crowd suddenly became noisy, pointing at Xu An.

"Zhao Gao, I knew it was you who did it."

Xu An looked up at Zhao Gao in the teahouse in the distance and smiled jokingly: "It seems that your face was not swollen yesterday, and you are still stretching your face to ask for a beating today, right?"

Zhao Gao fanned himself with a folding fan and said: "Young Master Xu, you are not good at handling the case, and you want to shirk your responsibility by using me?"

Hearing this, the crowd became even more noisy, and there was no lack of curses.

"Shifting the blame? If it wasn't to lure you little idiots into the trap, do you think I would have played this drama for so long?"

Xu An smiled and said, "Well, since the real culprit has come out, I'll be honest. These cases are nothing to me."

He looked down at Lian Cuilan and said, "You said I went back on my word? Ha! Stupid woman."

"I'm obviously wise and brave, unparalleled in the world. With a little trick, I can make you, a vicious woman, have nowhere to hide!"

"Do you know why I let you snatch the child? It's because I want to test your maternal love."

Lian Cuilan stared at Xu An with wide eyes. Xu An smiled contemptuously and said: "From your look, it seems that you didn't understand? Then let me explain it more clearly."

"There is no parent who doesn't love their children."

"The child suffered such a great crime just now, but you only cared about fighting for it, with excitement and cruelty in your eyes and face. What about Zhang An? It's just the opposite!"

"She saw the child suffering, her face was painful and desperate, and in the end, in order to protect the child from harm, she even let go and gave the child to you."

"This is the reaction a mother should have!"

Xu An looked up at the crowd and said, "If it were you, would you allow your child to be hurt?"

After listening to Xu An's explanation, everyone suddenly realized it.

"Of course not!"

"This turned out to be Xu the prodigal son... No, it was Lord Xu's plan. I wronged Lord Xu."

"Good judgment! This child must be Zhang An's. If it was my child, I would let it go."

"..."

The crowd was noisy again, and this time everyone was on Xu An's side.

The smile on Zhao Gao's mouth suddenly stiffened, and Du Ruhua also subconsciously clenched the teacup.

The logic and conclusion were reasonable, and even the public opinion was controlled by Xu An, and they had no way to refute it.

The corners of Emperor Yuan Kang's mouth twitched violently. Such a simple question, I didn't even think of it just now? I am an emperor who has been planning for ten years and has surpassed the whole court in wisdom. I didn't even think of it just now?

"Sun Diao Si, did you know the result a long time ago?"

Emperor Yuan Kang said coldly, no wonder this old guy advised me to think twice just now.

Sun Diao Si was so scared that he knelt on the ground and shook his head repeatedly, saying: "Your Majesty, I don't know..."

"I think you know it."

Emperor Yuan Kang said coldly, his tone was unquestionable.

Sun Diao Si's face trembled slightly, thinking that Your Majesty, you are a bit unreasonable!

He could only bow his hands respectfully and said: "Yes, I knew the result long ago. I didn't inform Your Majesty in time. I deserve to die..."

Emperor Yuan Kang glanced at him and nodded: "Well, this time, I won't bother with you because Xu An solved the case smoothly. If it happens again, I will never forgive you."

"Also, tell the palace that the Ministry of Punishment doesn't need to prepare anymore, and it can't be fought..."

Sun Diao Si bowed his hands and said: "Yes."

He was speechless. Xu An's solving the case and his being punished were not related at all!

Forget it, the master wants to find a way out. How dare a servant not give it to him?

On the other side, after hearing Xu An's words, Lingling had already clapped her hands and jumped up: "Miss, he seems to be really smart. He can think of this? So amazing!"

Kong Yan'er's pretty face was stiff for a while, but she would never admit that she didn't think of such a simple way.

She snorted coldly and said, "What's there to be proud of? I already knew this method, but I just wanted to see if this prodigal can come up with it."

Okay, this guy is indeed different from before, and we can have further communication.

Xu An raised his hand to suppress it, and the crowd gradually quieted down.

He looked down at Lian Cuilan and said coldly, "Lian Cuilan, can this young master wrong you?"

The woman's face turned pale. When she did it before, the county magistrate almost always stood on her side, and he would spend some money to pay tribute afterwards.

But I didn't expect that the biggest prodigal in Kyoto would actually stand on the side of that country bumpkin!

"Sir, spare me, I was bewildered for a while, sir, spare me, sir, spare me..."

She was no longer as arrogant as before, and her head was banging.

"Forgive you? This young master wants toIf you are not very observant, have you destroyed another family? "

Xu An kicked Lian Cuilan to the ground and shouted, "Come here."

"Yes." Captain Zhan immediately led his men forward.

"Zhan Peng, you must listen to me clearly."

"I suspect that there is a gang behind this woman. Now I order you to be the person in charge of this case. Use this woman as a breakthrough point to catch the gang behind her and rescue those abducted children."

To get down to business, Xu An used the word "this official" for the first time.

He stared at Zhan Peng and said word by word, "No matter what you did in the past, I will write it off now. Once this case is handled, I will guarantee that you will rise to the top."

"I have only one word to say. This case must be thoroughly investigated, no matter who or what forces are involved. ”

“If powerful people dare to come out to stop us, I will invite His Majesty to come for you. If someone in this case attempts to kill and silence you, and threatens your safety, I can transfer the city defense department to protect you!”

“Now, you just need to answer me, do you dare to handle this case?”

Zhan Peng is the chief constable of the Nancheng County Yamen. He once worked as a constable with a passion for the country and the people. However, the darkness of the court officialdom in recent years made him see no hope and gradually deviated from his ideal.

But now Xu An’s words gave him a glimmer of hope.

He pondered for a moment, clasped his fists and said, “I dare to do it!”

“Okay, report my name Xu An if you have anything to say.”

Xu An raised his hand and patted Zhan Peng on the shoulder, saying, “Go ahead and do it. If anyone dares to touch you, I will touch them first.”

“I said this, Xu An!”
