Chapter 229 Dali Temple
Xu Yan did not joke, and soon, several yamen runners sent out to explore the wind hurried back.
In fact, there is no need to inquire, now the entire capital is spread all over.
The news that the Marquis of Tianmen beat the young master of the Xu family was as if he had wings after Xu Yan walked into the city gate. It took not a single hour to arrive, and everyone in half of the capital knew about it. Some even heard the shocking roar of the head of the Xu family outside the Xu family's gate, and some even witnessed the Xu family rushing out of countless masters and searching for the murderer all over the city, but no one knew where Xu Yan is now.
After hearing the reward from his subordinates, Li Hongyuan squeezed his eyebrows and eyes again, leaving Xu Yan in the room. He returned to the hall where he went to the hall and was at a loss. The two young ministers and the chief clerk all sighed, wondering whether this hall would be promoted or not.
It is not so easy to be promoted to the marquis and punish the marquis, especially not a murder case. In such a fight, there is no need for Dali Temple to judge the punishment. If it is not promoted to the marquis, the Marquis of Tianmen clearly came to find a shelter, and it is easy to introduce it. This will be slaughtered by the Xu family at the entrance of the Dali Temple. The chief clerk Shaoqing and Li Hongyuan, the minister of Dali Temple, could not think of any of them.
Xu Yan cannot die, let alone die in Dali Temple!
Li Hongyuan stomped his feet hard and ordered Xu Yan to be taken to prison first. Dali Temple could no longer be sentenced to this matter. Since it was a hot potato, Li Hongyuan decided to go to the palace to meet the saint immediately.
He can't control it, so he can just push it to the emperor. At worst, he can be scolded by the emperor for being incompetent, which is better than losing his post and dismissing him.
The Xu family has a transcendent status, especially the head of the Xu family is a cultivator. If it were an ordinary family, Li Hongyuan would not have so many fears. However, once the case of a cultivator is involved, his mind will be in pain.
The Dali Temple Minister who was about to give the order suddenly saw an old man walking outside the gate. When he saw the visitor, Li Hongyuan's eyes lit up.
No one dared to take the hot potato, but the person who came here was different. The status of the left prime minister in the dynasty, let alone the Xu family, the four major families may not dare to touch a hair when they join together.
"Master Prime Minister!"
Seeing the visitor, Li Hongyuan finally got the confidence and trotted all the way to greet him.
When the left prime minister stepped into the gate of Dali Temple, all the guests in Wujia Inn outside the city had woken up, stretching their waists and yawning. They couldn't figure out why they were so tired last night, and it was dawn.
"That despicable person Xu Jingzhi!" Pang Shaocheng was sitting opposite his sister, gritting his teeth and cursing: "Don't let me see that boy, Yue'er rest assured, my second brother will give you this tone!"
Pang Shaocheng got up very early, after all, he was a master of the Five Vein. He woke up before dawn. As soon as he woke up, he immediately noticed something was wrong. He could not have fallen into a drowsy and fell asleep. Only then did he realize that he had been ambushed by someone last night.
Before I could find out the truth, Pang Shaocheng came to see Pang Hongyue anxiously, and found that his sister was fine and relieved. After learning from her sister that she had passed by, the second young master of the Pang family was furious.
"Xu Jingzhi must have been severely injured. Second brother, you don't have to go to this escort. Go back to the city and help Xu Yan escape the pursuit of the Xu family." Pang Hongyue had recovered her strength and said anxiously. She still has the heavy responsibility. She knew the importance of this escort. She couldn't leave, so she wanted Pang Shaocheng to go back to help Xu Yan.
Pang Shaocheng hesitated for a moment and nodded, "Okay, girl, be careful yourself, I'll go back and see what's going on."
"No need to see, the Xu family will never let Xu Yan go. Second brother, you will go to see the ancestor immediately after you go back and beg the old man to come forward so that he might be able to protect Xu Yan." Pang Hongyue frowned and said anxiously.
Pang Shaocheng knew that he was not a girl familiar with the escort matter, so it was nothing he could do when he went back, but he didn't expect that his sister would be so abnormal today and actually seemed very concerned about Xu Yan.
"Does our ancestors need to come forward? Xu Yan is not my son-in-law." Pang Shaocheng said, his face becoming a little weird, and he looked like he didn't care.
"Why is he not my son-in-law? We have been serving!" Pang Hongyue blurted out in anxiety. As soon as she said that, she saw her second brother's smirk, and her pretty face turned red and covered her cover: "He, he is related to the safety of my Princess, my Dapu, in Qi State, so he can't have any trouble, so..."
"Okay, okay, my second brother knows, don't worry, I'll go home and beg my ancestors now." Pang Shaocheng stopped teasing Pang Hongyue and stood up and said, "Actually that kid is quite interesting. He can destroy Xu Jingzhi for you. It seems that he can't bear to leave his wife as beautiful as a flower, hehe, hehehe."
"Second brother!" Pang Hongyue blushed and said coquettishly. Pang Shaocheng suddenly escaped and hurried back to the capital.
Looking out the window, Pang Hongyue could see a corner of the capital, and her frown eyebrows could not dissipate.
"Xu Yan... don't have anything to do..."
Taking a deep breath, the girl began to summon the masters in the family, left one person and then beat the horses and rushed to the next place to settle down.
She really wanted to run back to the capital now, but she knew that she had the heavy responsibility, and the escort was too important and involved even more. She could not tolerate the Pang family being careless. So with a worried mood, the girl stayed away from the capital and the boy she was worried about. However, along the way, her beautiful eyebrows locked up by her never dispersed.
...
Dali Temple, main hall.
"Sir, you're here just in time."
Li Hongyuan was just two big shots, and saw the reinforcements, leading the old man to the main hall, and said as he walked: "My Prime Minister, you have to help me with an idea this time. There is a case that is very difficult today. The official really doesn't know how to convict him."
The person who came was not someone else, but Cheng Yu, the left prime minister of the dynasty, and Li Hongyuan then grabbed the left prime minister like a life-saving straw and refused to let go.
Cheng Yu came in a hurry. He wanted to instruct Dali Temple to cooperate with the Ministry of Justice to thoroughly investigate whether anyone sneaked out of the capital last night. Unexpectedly, the other party threw a difficult case first. He was puzzled for a moment and frowned and said, "A case that can make Lord Li feel difficult must not be simple, but this matter is not urgent. Lord Li must first send someone to thoroughly investigate whether someone went out of the city last night..."
"My sir, I'm so anxious that the ant on the hot pan. Your instructions will do everything. You have to help the officials first."
Li Hongyuan said sadly without waiting for the other party to speak, "The Marquis of Tianmen broke the lawsuit. He interrupted the lifeblood of the young master of the Xu family, and only one breath was left. He also ran to my Dali Temple with great swagger to lead the leader. This is clearly pushing the trouble to the court. Sir, what should I do?"
"Horse of Tianmen?"
Cheng Yu was slightly stunned when he heard this name.
When the emperor was inviting the Marquis of Tianmen before Yuexu, the left prime minister was not in the capital and was accompanied by the right prime minister. After Cheng Yu came back, he had never met Marquis of Tianmen. He only knew that the Marquis of Tianmen was named Xu Yan. Cheng Yu was surprised for a long time, and finally shook his head and smiled bitterly, thinking that he was just the same name as the little Taoist priest in Linshan Town. Unexpectedly, when he came to Dali Temple today, he actually encountered the lawsuit of Marquis of Tianmen.
"First send someone to join the Ministry of Justice, thoroughly investigate the troops guarding the city last night, and find that there are any clues that must be returned. There must be no mistakes in any matter. Cheng Yu ordered the two young ministers. The two hurriedly nodded and said yes, and went down to arrange for the personnel to join the Ministry of Justice. Then Cheng Yu said to Li Hongyuan: "Where is the Tianmen Marquis now? I went to see you in person."
