After a burst of hurried footsteps, Yan Ruohai, the leader of the Overwatch Council, had already walked in from outside the Ministry of Criminal Justice, with a large group of Overwatch Council spies behind him, and the momentum was truly terrifying.
Seeing the Overwatch Council put on such an attitude, Guo Zheng didn't have much to say, he just frowned and said, "Unexpectedly, Master Yan will also come to listen to the case."
Yan Ruohai, however, ignored the Censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, looked at the handsome young man on the chair, and said with a slight smile, "My official, Yan Ruohai, has met Mr. Fan."
Fan Xian also stood up, and said with a smile, "If Master Yan doesn't come, I will have to dismantle this criminal department today and flee to the world." Of course, this was just a joke.
Han Zhiwei glanced at Yan Ruohai, frowned, thinking that the Overwatch Council would come to disrupt the situation, and said, "Master Xiao Fan roared in the courtroom and beat up the officials. His crime is unforgivable. No matter who comes, I'm afraid he won't be able to leave the Ministry of Criminal Justice today." What's more, the headquarters has already issued a paper to go to Sona Yang Wanli to wait for a group of criminals, and once the witnesses arrive, the case will naturally be cleared up."
"No need." Yan Ruohai said: "Officials from the Thirteenth Yamen went to the Tongfu Inn to pick up people, and they have already been picked up by Mr. Mu Tie in our court. They are now drinking tea in the Overwatch Council. Mr. Shangshu will stay for a while. If you are free, you might as well bring your subordinates back."
Those who take people will be taken by others, and the face of the Ministry of Criminal Justice will be completely lost today! Han Zhiwei pointed at Yan Ruohai's nose and scolded, "When will the Overwatch Council have the right to take charge of our Criminal Department's affairs? Our Criminal Department arrests people, why do you stop it?"
"The Chunwei fraud case is handled by this court. According to the order of the Holy Majesty, the Ministry of Criminal Justice and Dali Temple are only co-coordinators." Yan Ruohui looked around, but found that he did not see the young minister of Dali Temple, and smiled: "Since you are co-coordinator, you must Doing their duty as coordinators, Yang Wanli and the other four have been under the supervision of this court and have not been convicted yet, so how could they be transferred to the Ministry of Criminal Justice? have?"
Guo Zheng said coldly: "It's all about Yang Wanli's matter, it's just according to the rules of the imperial court. This little Mr. Fan is the first document issued by the Ministry of Criminal Affairs. If you talk about breaking the sky, don't even think about taking people away."
Until now, the Third Division didn't know the real relationship between Fan Xian and the Overwatch Council, but thought that Fan Xian's dealing with the Overwatch Council and Fei Jie's master-student relationship would make the Overwatch Council want to protect him. The other party, so preemptively use the rules to suppress Yan Ruohai. Yan Ruohai frowned, looked at the thirteen yamen officials surrounding Fan Xian with knives in their hands, and said, "How dare you be so rude to Master Fan."
Guo Zheng was extremely annoyed when he saw that he didn't listen to his dignified censor of the Procuratorate. He thought to himself that your rank is so much lower than his, how dare you be so rude. They don't know the arrogance of the Overwatch Council at all.
Yan Ruohai frowned again, looked at Han Zhiwei and saluted, "Master Shangshu, I have ordered you to go back to Mr. Fan, please be lenient."
When Han Zhiwei saw people from the Overwatch Council coming, he knew that today's matter would be troublesome, and the master behind him probably didn't expect Chen Pingping to intervene. But today, he has become a tiger riding a tiger, he gritted his teeth and said: "The case is not yet concluded, how can you lead people?...Master Yan, this is against the rules." He imitated Guo Zheng's tone and used court rules to suppress people everywhere.
Yan Ruohai frowned three times and waved his hand.
Countless muffled groans seemed to sound at the same time. On the hall of the Ministry of Justice, fists, wind, and footsteps combined, and the people of the Thirteenth Yamen had no time to resist. Knocked to the ground, life or death unknown. The fourth division of the Overwatch Council has always been the most powerful department in the Overwatch Council other than the fifth division, so how can these criminal officers be able to resist it.
Fan Xian found that it was finally quieter around him. He waved his sleeves with a smile, walked to Yan Ruohui's side, and said with a smile, "I'm sorry, I thought it was just for Wang Qinian to visit."
Han Zhiwei raised the case and said angrily: "So disregarding the imperial court's discipline, do you want to rebel in the Overwatch Council? I will write to the Holy Majesty tomorrow, and I will definitely punish you to death."
Yan Ruohai frowned, turned around and said, "According to the imperial court rules, the officials of the eight major divisions of the Supervisory Yuan are only ordered by the emperor. In case of emergency, they can temporarily evade the Qing law. It is not the order of the sage. The six departments, three divisions and two courts are not allowed to interrogate without authorization. this one?"
Guo Zheng said with a dark smile: "Master Yan is such a big boss, the Third Division will not dare to interrogate him, but what does Mr. Fan have to do with your Overwatch Council? No one knows who are the eight people in the Eighth Division, this official from the capital , who doesn't know, when did Master Xiao Fan become the Eight Great Offices? You know that the role of the Overwatch Council usually takes five years before it can be rectified... Master Xiao Fan is seventeen this year. Could it be that when he was twelve years old, he started In charge of one of the affairs of the Overwatch Council?"
No one would believe it, so Guo Yushi and Han Shangshu were not worried at all that Fan Xian would dare to step out of the gate of the Ministry of Criminal Justice today. As long as he dared to step out of the gate of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, it would be a contempt for Qing Law, a heinous crime that cannot be pardoned. With so many officials in the capital, under the turbulent court discussions, even the prime minister and Fan Shangshu could not keep him, and His Majesty had no choice but to convict him.
…
…
Yan Ruohai glanced at Fan Xian and smiled gently.
Fan Xian smiled slightly, stretched his fingers to his waist, and untied the wishful accessories given by the queen, casually threw it to an official of the Overwatch Council, and then slowly took out a wooden sign. The wooden sign was light yellow in color and read: There are two big characters of Tisi.
He stretched his hands straight to Guo Yushi and Han Shangshu, and the two stretched their necks forward. After seeing what was written on the sign, they sat down on the chair in shock. The wooden sign was like He slapped the two high-ranking officials from a distance.
Fan Xian smiled and shook his head and said, "Goodbye, my lords." After saying this, he and Yan Ruohai walked outside the hall of the Ministry of Punishment under the guard of the Overwatch Council officials.
After sitting at the table, Guo Yushi's face was livid, and Han Shangshu leaned back in his chair to meditate. No one expected that Fan Xian would have the status of chief inspector of the Overwatch Council!
What is tis? It is a detached existence above the eight major divisions of the Overwatch Council, and it is the most taboo job in the Overwatch Council. The officials in the DPRK and China had a lot of speculation, but no one would have guessed that the extremely gloomy Tisi in the rumors was the same person as the poetic and sunny Xiao Fan!
"What should we do?" Han Zhiwei opened his eyes, and a cold light shot in his eyes, "Neither the Sixth Division nor the Third Division is qualified to interrogate the Superintendent of the Overwatch Council. Unless His Majesty makes an order, but you and I both know that His Majesty cannot make such an order. .”
Guo Zheng frowned, looked at the large group of people who disappeared on the stone steps in front of the Ministry of Punishment, and said coldly: "It's really a turtle made of iron, and I can't find a place to attack. But I'm still a little curious, Fan Xian Why didn't you reveal your identity at the beginning? He insisted on coming to the Ministry of Punishment. Could it be that he is really not afraid that we will use the court's masters to capture Yan Ruohai before he arrives?"
Han Shangshu was also puzzled, but deep in his heart he was worried. Since Fan Xian couldn't be killed today, he must be greeted by a powerful counterattack. He sighed and thought of Fan Xian. The word "goodbye" was said at the end, slowly tasted a sense of bitterness, a sense of fear, wondering if the forces behind me could keep me.
※※※
Walking out of the lobby of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Fan Xian said calmly, "The dean forced me to reveal my identity, so I don't have to play such a boring show."
Yan Ruohai said with a smile: "The dean thinks that since he deliberately wants all the students in the capital to know the identity of the lord, it is necessary to reveal it in a relatively dramatic way at the right place and at the right time. Today, in the hall of the Ministry of Criminal Justice of the Qing Dynasty, scholars from Beijing gathered outside the gate to express their grievances, which is a great opportunity."
Fan Xian shook his head and didn't say anything. In fact, today was a bit of a risk. If those powerful forces hidden behind the Six Divisions wanted to complete their work in this battle, they could have used more ruthless methods. If he hadn't practiced in Cangshan Mountain Obviously, I don't have the confidence to talk and laugh freely in the dark court.
"The Overwatch Council is a secret service agency, so it has always had a bad reputation." Yan Ruohai explained softly, "That's why the president made a big publicity about your uncovering of the fraudulent case, and took the lead in establishing your reputation. After your identity is exposed, those scholars and ordinary people will not be afraid and disgusted when they think of you."
"So... it's just an image-building project." Fan Xian took a deep breath. The depression in his chest hadn't dissipated before, and he would have time to think about it in detail in the future.
Yan Ruohai didn't understand the meaning of the young chief minister's words, so he took the jade ruyi accessory that Fan Xian had untied earlier from the subordinate next to him, and handed it to him.
Fan Xian put this piece of Ruyi in his palm and gently stroked it, and suddenly asked: "Wan'er entered the palace to explain to the prince, and I think that this time Chunxi didn't hurt the prince's face too much, and with the prince's character, it should be It won't be so staunch. Previously, Han Shangshu suddenly became ruthless, which Dongguan did he rely on?"
Yan Ruohai smiled and said, "It's not the prince, it's naturally the queen."
"Queen?" Fan Xian raised his brows, thinking that more and more people were being suspected of offending him, but he didn't know if the queen...was dealing with him because of the reason he was so afraid. He clenched the jade ruyi in his hand The accessory, thinking that this accessory was also given by the queen, subconsciously wanted to throw it away.
Yan Ruohai reminded with a smile: "You can dispose of gifts from the palace at will, which is a serious crime."
Fan Xian smiled and said, "Thank you for reminding me, but now that my identity as the commissioner is known all over the world, which yamen would dare not have eyes to interrogate me?"
"The yamen don't dare to interrogate, but the palace dares to interrogate." Yan Ruohai patted him on the shoulder lightly, found that this young man was younger than his own son, shook his head and sighed.
Fan Xian nodded to be taught, and then said sincerely: "This trip to Northern Qi, please rest assured, my lord, I will definitely bring my elder brother back safely."
"Thank you." Yan Ruohai said.
Walking out of the gate of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, the scholars and ordinary people who had been surrounding the street all the time, seeing Mr. Fan who bravely exposed the fraud case come out safely, burst into cheers and were extremely happy.
Fan Xian thanked his surroundings with a smile, and only then did he understand why he acted so arrogantly in the Ministry of Justice today. It turned out that it was because he finally did something that he thought was very correct, just like the sentence in the novel in his previous life—what is right way? Righteousness is doing what is right—what you think is right. It feels good and powerful.
