The Record of Righteousness

Three days passed quickly.

Wang Laowu, a repeat offender, was escorted to the Jingshi Prefect's Yamen and interrogated by the Criminal Department, Dongchang, and the Jingshi Prefect's Yamen.

However, although there are three halls, the small prefect's Yamen has no power in front of the Criminal Department and Dongchang. It is actually only two halls.

In addition, Wan Qing, the foreman of the royal horse supervisor, and Wan Gonggong came to the trial.

It was just because he had a dispute with Zhang Riliang and others the day before.

The humiliation of Leng Feng is also known to everyone, but he has not been cleared of all suspicions.

When Leng Feng came out for trial, he said that he overheard the two men's secret conversation.

He insisted that Wang Laowu and the chief escort Zhang Riliang conspired to deceive the Bai family.

With Leng Feng's confession, Wan Qing was no longer suspected.

There is no way that Leng Feng turned his elbow outward and conspired with Eunuch Wan to take the blame for them!

But the truth is this, the hypocritical and silent mastermind Wan Qing.

He killed Zhang Riliang, killed dozens of people in the escort agency overnight, and robbed more than three thousand taels of silver.

Leng Tiancun also succumbed to Wan Qing's lust and gave him false testimony.

Then he used chronic poison to coerce Leng Feng, and then coerced Wang Laowu into confessing, and then killed his entire family and eradicated it!

Perfect put the blame on Wang Laowu.

His thoughts are not without thoroughness, his heart is ruthless, and his decisiveness in doing things is really shocking!

But this is all based on strong martial arts strength.

It looks very smooth, but in fact, every step is difficult. One miscalculated step will lead to an abyss, and there will be no recovery!

But no one would know, and no one would think so.

The only truth can only be that Zhang and Wang betrayed the escort agency!

Wang Laowu was shackled with iron shackles all over his body and had been tortured to the point of being transformed into a human being.

Faced with many crimes, he also confessed to them all.

He and Zhang Riliang stole three thousand taels of silver from the escort agency, killed 12 of the escorts and escaped.

Later, because of the uneven distribution of the spoils, Wang Laowu became murderous.

He poisoned Zhang Riliang's wine, brutally killed him after chopping off his hands, and devoured all his money. He was finally arrested and brought to justice by Dong Jishi Factory.

With Wang Laowu's confession, the Yamen's detectives finally found Zhang Riliang's body with a mutilated hand.

It had been bitten to pieces by wild dogs, and the three thousand taels of silver were successfully recovered.

It’s really a vast network of heaven, sparse and not missing.

The final result was not as Wan Qing expected.

The head of the Criminal Department and Dongchang's father-in-law jointly sentenced the guilty Wang Laowu to death by hanging.

In the near future, he will be paraded through the streets of Chongde Gate in the capital and then executed at Caishikou.

After hearing such a verdict, Wan Qing was really relieved.

He didn't care about what happened next, because the servant in the house hurriedly said:

"Eunuch Wan, Eunuch Wu has something important to ask of you, please go quickly!"

Before Wan Qing could catch his breath, another thing came to his door.

Maybe he had a guilty conscience and was really shocked, so he just said something casually and sent the guy away.

At this time, Wan Qing was extremely worried, but he still hurried to the Royal Horse Supervisor to see Eunuch Wu.

When Eunuch Wu saw Wan Qing coming over in a hurry, his expression did not change. He just waved his hand to ask the little eunuch under him to leave.

"My subordinate Wan Qing comes to see Eunuch Wu!"

"Well, let's get flat."

Eunuch Wu was wearing a blue official uniform today, which was much different from his usual looseness. He stared coldly at the trembling Wan Qing, and after a long time he said:

"Xiao Wan, you are not involved in this world escort agency thing, are you?"

"Father, I don't know anything about the escort agency. I just had some friction with the escort boss a few days ago. I didn't expect that the escort boss was killed by a thief. My guess is that the thief wanted to frame him. Little man."

Wan Qing knelt on the ground, feeling uneasy after being asked by Eunuch Wu.

But at this time, I can only talk nonsense to rid myself of it.

But he also knew that his bribery of Dongchang's father-in-law and torture of Wang Laowu a few days ago might not be kept secret for long.

But the storm is about to come and the wind is blowing all over the building.

"Well...our family trusts you. It's just a question. Don't be nervous. Just calm down."

Eunuch Wu chuckled, and the sharpness in his eyes was instantly replaced by the usual looseness.

"This is not why our family came to see you today. We have entrusted you with other important matters."

Wan Qing slowly stood up and calmed down.

He didn't dare to show off at all in front of Eunuch Wu. He no longer had the arrogance and viciousness of the past, but he was like an obedient and loyal dog.

"Please tell me, father-in-law, I will do my best!"

"Do you know about the Qi family in Zhili?"

Wan Qing raised his eyebrows and said:

"My subordinates have heard about the Qi family in Zhili. The Qi family made its fortune by trafficking food from Jiangsu and Zhejiang. It is a famous family in Zhili."

Eunuch Wu nodded, smiled, and then said slowly:

"Trafficking food from Jiangsu and Zhejiang is nothing more than a shield to hide from others. What he really relies on to start his family is smuggling weapons and supplies!"

Wan Qing was shocked and couldn't help but murmured:

"Smuggling weapons is a serious crime of beheading! Besides, the Qi family is at the feet of the emperor. Aren't you afraid of the court if you go against the will of heaven?"

Eunuch Wu snorted coldly, but he was confident: "The Qi family has acted so recklessly, and the imperial court has already noticed it, just to avoid alerting others."

"Father, I am afraid that one of my subordinates will not be able to handle such a big matter..."

Before Wan Qing could finish expressing his doubts, Eunuch Wu interrupted him and said with a smile:

"You don't have to worry. It's too big for Sima Jian to handle such a big event. There are other experts in this group who are responsible for dealing with the Qi family. You are just a supporting force."
