The pointed-faced man's facial features were deformed by Shen Chen's stepping. First, cold sweat began to appear on his forehead, and then he began to feel cold all over. Later, he felt that his whole body was shaking violently and uncontrollably. Only then did he finally realize that what Shen Chen said was true - the young imperial envoy in front of him was not lying, he was serious, and if he didn't tell the truth, he might kill him immediately.
He was so anxious that he started crying.
Shen Chen remained unmoved. He put more effort on his feet while looking around at the people around him coldly.
Everyone was frightened by his look and could not help but step back subconsciously.
Everyone around was frightened by Shen Chen, and Master Chen was no exception. He stared blankly at the person on the ground, as if he had figured something out - this matter might not be simple.
He calmed down and was able to think about it. After thinking about it, he felt that there was something strange about this matter.
If Mr. Xu was really a fool who sold his daughter, he would not have betrothed Xu Jiaojiao to his son in the first place. Moreover, over the years, Mr. Xu had no intention of going back on his word. Instead, he often advised Xu Jiaojiao and was always very nice to Mr. Chen. He had no intention of looking down on him. He even took the initiative to offer suggestions and said that he would consider teaching Mr. Chen some basic things so that he could live a better life in the future.
There is no reason for such a person to do such a stupid thing-----Everyone can think of it. Doesn't Mr. Xu know that if the matter of giving away his daughter was known, he would not be able to stay in this position for long and would definitely face backlash
And looking at Shen Chen's appearance, Shen Chen has not slept at all - his clothes are all neat and tidy, and he has caught so many people, which shows that Shen Chen knows that he is being plotted against, and he also knows who is plotting against him, so he came prepared, waiting for those who want to watch the fun to fall into his trap.
As soon as he thought of this, he heard the sharp-nosed man crying even louder. He focused his mind and looked over, and saw Shen Chen holding a bamboo stick and stabbing his finger little by little. The man was in so much pain that cold sweat was dripping down his nose little by little.
He finally couldn't hold on any longer and cried to Shen Chen: "I didn't poison you, I didn't poison you! I just used an ordinary aphrodisiac!"
aphrodisiac?!
Everyone was shocked; they didn't expect him to suddenly say such a thing.
Aphrodisiac!
Some of those who were quick-witted had already figured out what was going on, and they all showed meaningful expressions at the same time.
So that's why. No wonder Mr. Xu's daughter had to be sent to Shen Chen. It turns out that someone was plotting against the imperial envoy.
But who is it
Everyone thought about it in their hearts, and after thinking about it, they couldn't help but shut up - they wanted to go against the Imperial Envoy, but now they are being suppressed by the Imperial Envoy. They can't bear to see the Imperial Envoy doing well, nor can they bear to see the Xu family doing well
When someone thinks of you, their eyes become a little subtle.
When the city gate catches fire, innocent people will be affected too. They should just stand there and watch the fun. It is better not to touch things that should not be touched, otherwise they will die without knowing how they died.
Just as they were thinking this, the lights in the room suddenly dimmed and everyone was startled.
Shen Chen was not affected. He leaned forward and said "oh" in a long tone, casually and leisurely: "So that's it... It's an aphrodisiac. Then who ordered you to do it?"
He did it on purpose, interrogating this man in front of so many people.
Everybody realizes it.
Immediately afterwards, Shen Chen reminded him: "You have to think it over before you speak. Once you say it, you can't regret it. If it is proven that you lied, then you and your family will die."
**It was a naked threat, but the man with a pointed face and monkey cheeks didn't care at all. His hands had been stepped on and rotten by Shen Chen. This man did what he said. He was already a little scared. He said a name weakly with a sad face.
Shen Chen raised his eyebrows and asked everyone present: "Did you all hear it? Who did he just say?"
Who did you say that
Everyone's right eyelids twitched violently and they couldn't help but lower their heads and act dumb.
I understand what you said, but it is offensive...
After all, the Liu family is the local boss, and even if the imperial envoy is powerful, he may not be able to defeat them.
Shen Chen didn't seem to expect an answer.
But Master Chen's eyes suddenly lit up, and he coughed forcefully and announced the name he had just heard: "Qin Yang! He just said it was Qin Yang!"
Shen Chen was somewhat satisfied. He glanced at him and then asked thoughtfully, "Who is Qin Yang?"
Mr. Xu also reacted. He stared fiercely at the group of people who were like chickens and ducks under the protection of Shen Chen, and said coldly: "There are not many people with the surname Qin who can be so arrogant. If there is, it must be related to the head of the personal guard of the Governor's Mansion."
Among the officials of the Governor's Office, the Chief of the Personal Guard, Lord Qin, was the one that Liu Biping valued the most. Everyone was silent and kept their heads down, pretending not to hear anything.
Shen Chen said, "Really?"
The man with the pointed chin and monkey cheeks felt as if there was a fire burning in his throat. When he saw Shen Chen asking the question and looking at him, he knew that he was asking him. He trembled and nodded: "Yes... It's Mr. Qin's cousin..."
Shen Chen's eyes instantly turned cold: "These people bribed the servants and pretended to be from the Xu family to drug me. This is extremely abominable! The Governor's Office repeatedly sent people to target me. What's going on?!"
What's going on
Everyone knew what was going on, but no one said it.
Shen Chen nodded to Qing Feng and said, "Go, invite the inspector here and tell him in detail what happened here today. Give him the confessions of these people and ask him to make the judgment."
Doesn't he do it himself
Everyone was a little confused, not knowing what Shen Chen was trying to do.
Shen Chen had already turned his head, smiled at everyone and said, "Also, everyone involved in this matter today, please stay for a while and let the inspector question you. If you have nothing to do, you can leave. If you have something to do, then I am really sorry."
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what Shen Chen meant. How to judge whether there was any involvement or not? This range was very large, and it was worth discussing.
However, Shen Chen had already nodded to Han Bo.
Han Bo stood up, glanced at them, raised his eyebrows and started to call out names.
Three or four young men from the Liu family were named. They couldn't help but feel panicked at the moment and were anxious to distance themselves from the matter, shouting that they had nothing to do with it.
But no one paid any attention to them. Shen Chen's guards acted quickly and fiercely. They quickly chopped down the person who was making the most trouble and knocked him unconscious with a single blow.
As a result, the others didn't dare to move and watched helplessly as the guards arrested all the people whose names Han Bo had reported.
