Celebrating more than two years of peace in the world

Chapter 52 The big event in the world, but under the bow

"Please inform me that the Ministry of Punishment has come to pick up the person with an imperial edict." The Minister of the Ministry of Punishment brought a group of servants from the Ministry of Punishment to the door of the Overwatch Council, and said to the person at the door that the Overwatch Council is not affiliated with the Ministry of Punishment. Moreover, the head of the Overwatch Council enjoys the title of national teacher, and his power and status are among the highest in the Qing Kingdom. He will not overstep at will, even if he has the Holy Order.

Chen Pingping is a fine person, he knows the nature of these people well, of course he knows that the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment who just took office is a loyal person, and he is very concerned about these etiquettes, he has already arranged everything for the arrival of the other party.

"The dean has already given orders, please, Lord Shangshu." The person who spoke directly opened the door and made way for the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment to walk in. The person behind him was blocked by the person who opened the door before he could enter.

"This is?" The Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment was surprised and asked.

"My lord, please forgive me, no outsiders with weapons are allowed to enter the Overwatch Council, and you have a lot of people with you, if possible, please choose a few confidantes to enter." The door opener said.

The Secretary of the Ministry of Punishments examined the person who opened the door. Although he was very reluctant, Chen Pingping, the head of the Procuratorate, had already given him such a great convenience. If he jumped up screaming, it would be a bit too rude.That being the case, he called three people and followed him in.

The person who opened the door took the two of them through several roads, and then they came to the inside of the Overwatch Council. However, Fan Xian would find it funny if he was here. This is not the place where Chen Pingping is, but the Prison is a place where criminals are interrogated and punished.

Along the way, there were screams and begging for mercy one after another, and even a few subordinates of the Ministry of Criminal Justice who were used to being dumbfounded at the gate of the Ministry of Criminal Justice could not help but become alert.

Every prison door was open, and the Overwatch Council did not seem to be afraid that these prisoners would run out, and those prisoners seemed to be even more afraid of the outside of the prison door. No one approached the prison door, but leaned against the wall tightly.

The few people walked along the way, saw many tortures, and finally stopped at a prison door.

Chen Pingping was sitting in a wheelchair, looking at the shadow not far away with deep eyes, and in front of the shadow was a prisoner who was tied to the wall. The man's eyes were half closed, and he seemed to be dying. At this time, the shadow , To actually directly pick out the opponent's lute bone with a tool!
Blood splattered on the spot.

At this time, Chen Pingping did not turn around to look at the Minister of the Ministry of Justice behind him, but asked the man in front of him who was screaming frantically.

"My lord Shaoqing, my patience has a limit." His voice was not loud, but it was enough to penetrate the hearts of everyone present. The cold voice was like the lecturing of the god of death, monotonous and terrifying.

This is the young minister of Dali Temple!
The Secretary of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs could tell who this person was at a glance. His face belonged to a person he was very familiar with. Recalling that the reason why this person entered Dali Temple was because when the Ministry of Criminal Affairs ransacked his home, he discovered that the Shaoqing of Dali Temple had colluded with local officials. The letter asking candidates to enter Chunwei for bribery was sent to the Overwatch Council.

Seeing the Shaoqing of Dali Temple at this time, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment couldn't help feeling a little cold sweat on his back.

"Master Dean." The gatekeeper said in a low voice when it was very appropriate.

Chen Pingping didn't talk to her, but coughed a few times. The shadow in front of her put down the blood vessel in her hand, wiped off the blood on her hand, walked back, turned Chen Pingping's wheelchair around, and only then saw the Criminal Department in front of her. Shangshu.

"Hey, Lord Shangshu, you are here." Chen Pingping smiled.

"Dean..." At this time, the Minister of the Ministry of Justice was extremely terrified. He didn't know if he would be thrown in this underworld hell one day and asked about things he didn't know at all, but he admitted that at this moment When it came to Chen Pingping, he was afraid.

Whether it was because of the gossip about Chen Pingping in the past, or the vividness of the people about this demon, combined with the fate of Shaoqing in Dali Temple now, he admitted that although he and the person in front of him belonged to His Majesty's special institution, compared with him, It's like a child fighting.

"Oh, are you here to investigate Fan Sizhe?" Chen Pingping asked.

"Yes, yes, Dean, we are here to ask you for Fan Sizhe." The Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment responded immediately, and now he wants to interrogate the criminal as soon as possible and leave as soon as possible. This is the best policy.

But Chen Pingping smiled, "Go two more prisons in, and Fei Jie is there. I don't care about arresting people, he is supervising it."

This Chen Pingping is the devil!Since you're not dealing with him, don't worry.After making the ceremony, Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice ran out of the room as if fleeing from famine, and immediately walked down to the two prisons. This time, it was broken!

Weifang is where Fei Jie is, and at this time he is sitting with his back facing the prison door, and in front of him is a row of seven people. The group of four people who just walked in here didn't feel that there was any big problem. And as soon as they entered, three people fell to the ground!
"This!" Shouting, the Minister of the Ministry of Justice immediately startled, and he dodged a few steps. These footsteps caught Fei Jie's attention. Fei Jie turned around and looked over, which made Shangshu's hairs stand on end!
Fei Jie was holding a bowl at this time, and there was a huge spider in the bowl. The spider was a whole circle bigger than a human hand. When Fei Jie looked back, the spider jumped out, and jumped out immediately. When he arrived at one of the men in tattered clothes hanging on the wall, after taking a bite, that man seemed to be sucked dry. He looked in front of him with horrified eyes, blood red color appeared on his face, and then he immediately spit out white foam. It appears to be dead.

"Hey, hey, wait a minute." Fei Jie stopped the Minister of the Ministry of Justice from retreating, he grabbed the Minister of the Ministry of Justice by the shoulder, and before he could resist, Fei Jie grabbed him forward.

At first, Shangshu Xingbu was still furious, but then he was so frightened that his legs couldn't support him.

Fei Jie took out a half meter long poisonous snake from behind him!The poisonous snake looked at Fei Jie resentfully, but Xinzi spit out the two halves separately, Fei Jie said with a smile, "Don't run around, really."

"Ah!" Then there was another scream, and Fei Jie immediately turned his head to look over. The second person hanging on the wall was dead just like the first person.

Fei Jie frowned, threw the snake directly into the bowl in front of him, threw the bowl on the chair he was sitting on, and went straight to catch the spider.

Does the minister of the Ministry of punishment dare to wait?But he was afraid that he would not be able to leave, and he dared not stay even if he stayed. When he was in a dilemma, fortunately Fei Jie caught the spider back, and he threw both of them into the bowl. Then he said, "Who are you?"

"Mr. Fei...I am the Criminal Department..."

"Oh oh oh, Minister of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, right?" Fei Jie said immediately, and he clapped his hands, "I forgot, so I'm helping you interrogate a prisoner."

"Ah?" The Minister of the Ministry of Punishment was stunned, "What... what prisoner?"

"That's right." Fei Jie said as he grabbed the spider on the side and put it in his palm, "Last night, the Overwatch Council caught Fan Sizhe, but unexpectedly, a person appeared on the road from Baoyue Building to the Overwatch Council. Because Fan Sizhe was secretly escorted, if there was a big fanfare, it would definitely disturb the people in the building, so only two people were arranged, and these two people were killed by this group of thieves! They took Fan Sizhe away, no, today I was caught and brought back."

"Ah... yes... that's it." The Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment looked at Fei Jie, and he was out of breath.

Fei Jie suddenly said, "Hey, are those three people behind you?"

"Yes! Yes, yes, Mr. Fei, this is..."

"Oh, I just have some drugs here, I'll take them for the adults." He said and took out four pills, "You four, the adults' physique is really extraordinary. It's a coma, the adult can persist for so long, he is really strong."

The Minister of the Ministry of Punishment hurriedly swallowed the three fallen people, and finally ate it himself.

"I poisoned these few people, but it's harmless. Do you want to take them back for torture?" Fei Jie asked.

How dare Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice take over the people Fei Jie interrogated?Tired of living or what?This guy just came out of Yan Wangsi and went into the poison cave. Who knows how much poison these people have on them?How many lives are enough for him to bring him back to the Ministry of Criminal Justice?

"Oh, no, no, I'm getting old, I'll go back and report." The Minister of the Ministry of Punishment quickly grabbed a bucket and poured it on the three people beside him. woke up.

"Let's go, let's go!" The Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment snapped, and immediately walked outside.

"Master Shangshu, wait a moment, shall I see you off?" Fei Jie hurriedly caught up and asked.

"It's too much trouble, no need, I know the way myself, I know the way." The Minister of the Ministry of Punishment fled out without looking back, as if fleeing from a disaster.

Looking at the backs of the four people, Fei Jie sneered, but the person hanging on the wall behind him suddenly laughed. As expected, this was not some bandit in the middle of the night, but someone from the third place. Everyone raised their heads one by one, including the two people who were 'killed' before.

The first one said, "Teacher, you are so poisonous, the antidote I prepared doesn't matter."

The second one was foaming while talking, "Old... Teacher... Huluhulu, look at them... Wuwululu... come! Humph... Wuwu... Ministry of Punishment... Lulu... "

"But... the poison is not bad!" After the second person finished speaking, he rolled his eyes again and fell down.

Fei Jie looked at the fallen man, smiled warmly, and then scolded, "Trash, it's really not as useful as Fan Xian. He formulated the antidote for this poison when he was six years old."

Several people looked at Fei Jie and laughed.

……

"Then what will happen if the Ministry of Punishment fails to catch anyone?" Fan Ruoruo looked at Fan Xian with a slight smile and asked.

Fan Xian poured the tea into the teacup in front of him, and continued, "The Ministry of Punishment couldn't catch anyone, so of course he went back to report. The Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment is not weak, but he is a person who acts according to the rules, and this person also Very humane."

"But where is His Majesty the Emperor..." Fan Ruoruo asked in puzzlement.

Fan Xian smiled and said, "Your Majesty the Emperor, there is no need to worry. He wants to see this matter slowly begin more than anyone else. After all, the whole battle of Baoyuelou only started now."

Fan Xian was right, His Majesty the Emperor was in no hurry to resolve this matter.

……

"Fan Jian, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs." Eunuch Hou shouted in a hoarse voice.

In the early court, after Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice turned around and walked out, it basically had nothing to do with this matter. They never expected that His Majesty the Emperor would be so relaxed about this matter.

It's not that I'm nervous about this matter, but His Majesty's reaction speed is still very fast. After all, he directly ordered the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment to arrest Fan Sizhe immediately above the court, which shows that he doesn't care much about the incident itself, but especially I don't care what outsiders think about this matter, of course this is just Fan Xian's idea.

At this time, the second prince and the crown prince were also a little surprised, but the subsequent arrangement of His Majesty made Manchu civil and military feel relieved.

"The minister is here." Fan Jian replied.

"Stand by and wait outside the Shang's study, and you are not allowed to leave the palace after the court."

"Minister, receive the decree!" Fan Jian knelt on the ground calmly. At this time, His Majesty the Emperor had already left the court, and only Eunuch Hou, who delivered the final decree, was left standing in the court hall.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the East Palace, and His Royal Highness the Second Prince, please wait outside the imperial study." Eunuch Hou continued.

"My son, take the decree!"

The two knelt down in unison, facing the empty dragon chair.

Of course, Fan Jian was kept to avoid suspicion. Before the truth of today's matter came to light or before Fan Sizhe's matter was resolved, it was impossible for Fan Jian to leave the palace. This was the emperor's restriction on Fan Jian. Let everyone know that Fan Sizhe's disappearance has nothing to do with Fan Jian.

After the three people moved to the door of the imperial study, Fan Jian was not in a hurry to do anything. Eunuch Hou walked out of the imperial study, took three benches for the three of them, and said in a low voice, "His Royal Highness, the second prince Your Highness, Fan Shangshu, His Majesty asked you to rest outside and wait for a while."

The three of them nodded, and then they sat down one by one, without any impatience.

The people above are not in a hurry, but the people below are in a hurry. His Majesty the Emperor is not just doing nothing inside, but is communicating with the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment.

At this time, the Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment entered the imperial study in a hurry, knelt on the ground, and immediately kowtowed to admit his mistake without saying anything, "Your Majesty, I deserve death for my crimes!"

In the current imperial study room, His Majesty is not the only one, there is another person who is the eldest prince. He is standing behind the emperor, apparently brought a new bow for the emperor to play with. This is a new bow. It is not the handwriting of the city of Kyoto. The engraving and engraving on it has a very strong alien color in it. There is no dragon and phoenix in the traditional sense, but the patterns of tigers and leopards, and even the bows are covered with tiger skins. .

His Majesty the Emperor did not grab the minister of the Ministry of Punishment below him for questioning immediately, but concentrated on looking at the bow in his hand. The Emperor tilted the bow in his hand and asked, "The barbarians outside the border of the West border, how strong are they?" He is strong and savage by nature, but he did not expect that the bow and arrow are so exquisitely made, not only the carving and writing work is very careful, but the bow is also very comfortable to hold in this hand, and the weight is also very good."

After saying this, the eldest prince immediately understood that his father was not just playing with bows and arrows, but rather studied them. He didn't talk to him, because he knew that his father hadn't finished speaking.

"The carving is not in the way, and the animal skin protects the tiger's mouth, so it is not easy to injure yourself due to the war equipment. Moreover, if it is a melee fight, although the bow has no advantage in close quarters, but this bow is extremely sharp up and down, and it can be used as a weapon. Great job, yes, very good." A rare smile appeared on the emperor's face.

"Your Majesty, this bow and arrow is really good. Thinking about the bows you have seen in recent years, it seems that this one has the highest evaluation." Seeing Longyan Dayue, Hou Gonggong immediately said to His Majesty, don't say anything. It's a matter of adding oil and vinegar, adding joy to joy, if Eunuch Hou said that he is the second in the world, then no one would dare to say that he is the number one in the world.

"Hahaha." Sure enough, the emperor laughed, turned around and patted the eldest prince behind him, "How? Can this bow be made?"

"Father, this bow is very exquisitely crafted. If it is exactly the same, it may cost a lot to make. Moreover, this bow is an item of military exploits that saved the lives of my sons and ministers when the Huren leader was defeated. It is unparalleled in the world." The eldest prince quickly boasted, and then said, "If it is made according to this bow, only the front and rear sharp blades, the weight of the bow, and animal skins are added, it should not be difficult to mass-produce it for our army. .”

The emperor laughed and said, "Okay, since that's the case, I'll give you time." After saying that, the emperor stretched out his hand and handed the bow to the eldest prince.

The eldest prince was startled, and immediately knelt down, "This is the gift of my son's loyalty to my father, and I dare not take it away."

These two sentences are very accomplished. It's not that they dare not take it back, but they dare not take it away. This statement shows that the bow already belongs to His Majesty the Emperor.

"Didn't you say that this is something unparalleled in the world, and I will definitely not take away people's love." The emperor said.

The eldest prince didn't get up, he didn't even raise his head, "Royal father, it's true that this is unparalleled in the world, but my son's bow and arrow skills are not worth mentioning in front of the royal father, so Fan...there is a truth in the world , A good horse and a hero, such a good weapon, wouldn't it be a waste to keep it in the hands of my ministers, of course it must be given to the emperor, in the hands of the emperor, it is worthy of being unparalleled in the world."

Looking at the eldest prince in front of him, the emperor put his bow on the table beside him, he turned his head and said to the eldest prince, "You were not so naughty before, who taught you to say that?"

"There is no one to teach it, this is what I say from the bottom of my heart!" The eldest prince did not dare to say so, so he said immediately.

The emperor walked to the side where he was sitting, and raised the teacup in front of him with a smile, "It's interesting to match a good horse with a hero."
