Chapter 26 Competition Again

"Lord Zhao, the one who was ordered to investigate the Bai family's caravan in a single day was Ma Xiao, the deputy of the Metropolitan Inspectorate. Just yesterday, Tuoba Lingyun was ordered to assassinate Ma Xiao. Fortunately, Ma Xiao was saved by my subordinates. He can prove that the Bai family was wronged. If the Bai family is wronged, I'm afraid it's not me to kill people.

Liu Xia carried these hands on her back and smiled faintly.

"Oh? Is there such a thing as this? Protector, why did you kill Ma Xiao? Do you know that he is now an important witness in this case. After all, at that time, he found the prohibited items from the Bai family caravan.

Zhou Hongchang immediately asked.

"Two adults, you don't know that Ma Xiao is a man who is greedy and corrupt, and his sin is unforgivable. His father-in-law had enough evidence for him today before ordering the arrest of Ma Xiao. Unexpectedly, he was rescued by Prince Weiyuan's subordinates. There is enough evidence to convict Ma Xiao's charge. This man is greedy for life and afraid of death, and forgets righteousness when he sees profit. It is really a public negligence of his own country. Naturally, I will plead guilty to the Holy Lord. However, how can such a despicable person's words be used as evidence in court?

Tuoba Lingyun smiled disdainfully.

This case is still a mess.

Prince Weiyuan reported the protection of the country, and the protection of the country was announced by Prince Weiyuan.

The conspiracy case of the Bai family has reached an impasse.

At this time, Zhou Hongchang and Zhao Changgong looked at each other. Zhao Changgong said, "Ma Xiao."

After a while, Ma Xiao entered the lobby and knelt down to salute.

"Who is under the hall?"

"The sinner Ma Xiao."

"I ask you, the case of the conspiracy of the Bai family is that you personally raided the caravan of the Bai family. What was the situation on that day?"

Zhou Hongchang took a deep breath and asked.

"Two adults, on that day, Weichen was ordered by the governor to personally investigate the Bai family caravan. All the prohibited items are the subordinates of Weichen and Weichen, who have been brought with them before. When he met the Bai family caravan, he quietly put the prohibited items into their caravan, and then went to catch them. All of this is the oracle of Lord Fengdu. The sinner can prove that the Bai family was wronged.

Ma Xiao said immediately.

"Duke Huguo, what do you have to defend?"

"Your Excellency, there must be evidence for everything. You said that I slandered the Bai family's rebellion, so do you have evidence? How can you convince the whole world with your nonsense?

Tuoba Lingyun smiled disdainfully.

At this moment, Ma Xiao can't wait to rush out now and fight with Tuoba Lingyun. After all, his family died yesterday.

If it hadn't been for Liu Xia's protection, I'm afraid he would be dead now.

"The two adults, the Metropolitan Inspectorate has always been only the governor's words. However, when Weichen put the prohibited items on the Bai family's carriage, all my colleagues saw it with their own eyes. As long as they are willing to testify, you can prove that the Bai family is indeed wronged.

Ma Xiao said hurriedly.

"Duke Hu Guo, can you pass on to the other detectives who went to the Baijia caravan that day?"

Zhao Changgong asked.

"Why not? Wang Tianyun, go and bring the other detectives who lost the Bai family caravan that day.

Tuoba Lingyun said fearlessly.

Liu Xia knew that those spies would not tell the truth when they saw the end of Ma Xiao.

In this way, Ma Xiao is very passive.

This time, Tuoba Lingyun came prepared, so the spies who were responsible for raiding the Bai family caravan that day were waiting outside the door early in the morning.

After being passed on, they went to the outside of the lobby one after another.

The people who acted together with Ma Xiao are all Ma Xiao's subordinates.

There were a total of 37 people on that day, and now they are all present.

"Who are you waiting for? Report your name."

Zhou Hongchang asked.

"Your Excellency Qizou, the names of the villains are Zhang Zhenkun, Liu Chengyu, Xue Buyen, and we are all hundreds of households in the People's Procprocureate."

Immediately, the three leading people hugged their fists and said.

"I asked you, what is the general situation on the day of the Bai family caravan?"

"Your Excellency, on that day, we received an order from Lord Ma, so we went out of the city to investigate the Baijia caravan. Ten miles outside the city, except for the Wangshui Lake, the Baijia caravan was intercepted, and then in the Baijia caravan, the jade knife, the golden dragon armor, and a set of crown clothes were seized. At that time, there was a Southern Chamber of Commerce, and the caravan of the Dongyang Chamber of Commerce also happened to pass by, which could testify for me.

Zhang Zhenkun said.

"In this way, those prohibited items were indeed confiscated from the Bai family?"

Zhao Changgong also asked.

"That's right, it's true."

Immediately, the spies insisted.

"Ma Xiao, I ask you, what do you explain when they say so?"

Zhou Hongchang said.

"Your Excellency, Weichen was killed by Tuoba Lingyun just because he was involved in this matter, and tried to rob my family as a hostage. These spies are all working in the Metropolitan Inspection House. If the ministers' confessions are not credible, then their confessions will naturally not be trusted.

Ma Xiao said.

"Duke Tuoba, what do you want to say?"

"Your Excellency, Ma Xiao is greedy and corrupts the law. According to the law, his family will naturally be punished. Weichen is just a matter of business. As for robbing his family, it's nonsense.

Tuoba Lingyun said with a faint smile.

For a while, the lobby fell into silence.

Now, the evidence from both sides is invalid and has reached an impasse.

"Cough, at present, Bai Rongxuan has died, and our Dali Temple and the Ministry of Criminal Justice will continue to investigate. Come on, take Ma Xiao to the big prison first. Choose a day to re-examine."

After discussing with Zhou Hongchang and Zhao Changgong, Zhou Hongchang got up and said.

"Your Excellency, Ma Xiao is a criminal in the court of inspection. I beg you to hold Ma Xiao for interrogation first."

Tuoba Lingyun said.

"Ha ha, Lord, now Ma Xiao has become an important witness in the case of the Bai family. Whether he violates other criminal laws or not, Lord Zhou and I are ordered to inspect the case. Ma Xiao can only hand it over to me, the Ministry of Criminal Justice and Dali Temple first, and then hand it over to your prison when the case is closed. If you have any objection, you can go to the emperor to ask for an order. I will do it later."

Zhao Changgong said with a faint smile.

Tuoba Lingyun knew it in his heart, so he didn't say much. He hugged his fist and said, "Then there are two adults. The father-in-law also hopes that this case can come to light as soon as possible. On the one's, it is to give justice to my officials, and on the other, it is to give justice to my court. Those villains who try to mess up our court must not be allowed to go unpunished.

"Haha, what Lord Tuoba said is very true. I also hope to eradicate the evil people who harm Longdu as soon as possible.

"Your Majesty, the Duke, the two of you have a heart. Naturally, you will report to the emperor that it will be like this today. Withdraw from the hall."

"Mighty...!"

The government messengers shouted one after another.

Liu Xia immediately turned around and walked out of the lobby.

And Tuoba Lingyun naturally came out of the lobby. The two looked at each other. Tuoba Lingyun smiled and said, "Your lord, it seems that your witness can't bring me down. You have to work harder."

"Ha ha, I have a lot of witnesses. It's okay. I'll start with your son first. Do you know? Today, Mr. Xue has begun to hear your son's case in Shuntianfu. Just now, I had sent Zhao Liansheng there. Xue Ge's eyes are golden. You can escape. Your son, tut, it's difficult.

Liu Xia said with a faint smile.

"The prince worked really hard for the dog. However, it's a pity that the conviction should pay attention to evidence. Without evidence, Mr. Xue can also handle it impartially. In addition, I will find out the suspect who caused a lot of trouble last night. At that time, the prince will not be afraid.

Tuoba Lingyun said with a smile.

"Oh? That's too hard. Say goodbye."

Liu Xia smiled faintly and left with her fist.

As soon as he got out of the door and got on the car, Dabao said angrily, "What a fucking grievance. After fighting for a long time, we fell behind.

"Big brother, calm down. The court is not the world. The court has the rules of the court. If we want to kill him, we must follow the rules. We still have a killer mace. Don't worry."

Liu Xia smiled calmly.

Dabao was stunned and said, "Then why don't you take it out today?"

"Ha ha, the time is not right. After a while, you go to put up notices everywhere outside the city and say that anyone who reports the crime of the little father-in-law can get 5,000 silver, and those who commit felony can get 10,000 silver. I still don't believe that he has been arrogant and domineering in Longdu for so many years that he can not leave any crime.

"Well, is this your killer?"

"Of course not. It's just forcing Tuoba Ling Yungou to jump over the wall."

"Okay, I'll do it in a while."

"This is my letter. Remember to stamp the letter on the notice."

Liu Xia told him.

Subsequently, Liu Xia and Dabao soldiers were divided into two ways. Dabao went to the downtown, while Liu Xia returned to the royal palace under the escort of the imperial army.

When it arrived at the royal palace, it was already late. The huge dragon capital began the most prosperous moment of the day.

And in the imperial city, it is very deserted.

Sitting in the carriage, Liu Xia saw the weeping willows on both sides of the road swinging in the wind.

Now it is mid-September, and the heat of summer has subsided. Instead, a wind blows and there is some coolness in autumn.

In the imperial city, there are houses with white walls and black tiles, and the specifications are slightly different.

The dozens of houses closest to the imperial city are red walls and yellow tiles, which are the same style as the palace. Those are the prince's palace.

When I was about to get home, I saw a huge guard of honor heading towards the palace.

When Liu Xia saw that the size of the guard of honor was very high, she couldn't help asking curiously, "Lord An, whose guard is that?"

Lord An's name is An Fu'an. He is a hundred households of the Royal Forest Army and is responsible for watching Liu Xia.

Now I also bow my head and don't look up. Naturally, I'm more polite.

"Try back to the prince, that is the support of the eldest princess. Recently, she has just come back from his fiefdom and is ready to celebrate the emperor's birthday."

"The eldest princess?"

Liu Xia just came to Longdu, and these emperors and nobles are not very well understood.

"It is Princess Chang'an, who is the sister of today's saint. Speaking of which, she should be the prince's aunt. She usually lives in Nanyang Fengyi. Your Majesty loves her very much and does not restrict her movement.

An Fu'an smiled.

"Auntie!"

Liu Xia muttered a word, then smiled at An Fu'an and closed the window.

"So I have an aunt?"

In Liu Xia's heart, he said silently.
