Chapter 210 Re-examination of old cases

"I heard that Mr. Xiao is missing two very important witnesses in his investigation!" Xu Junze said straight to the point, looking at Xiao Chen, while picking up the wine glass in front of him and taking a slow sip.

Xiao Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, but asked in a calm tone: "The Criminal Department has many cases to investigate. I wonder which case General Xu is talking about?"

"Liang Shunzhong, and - Ren Yong!" Xu Junze said two names, then drank all the remaining wine in the glass, and then looked at Xiao Chen sharply.

Xiao Chen's expression suddenly became sharp. The Ministry of Justice has been looking for the whereabouts of these two people for a long time, but there is no clue after searching for a long time. Could it be that these two people are in Xu Junze's hands?!

Lei Zhanpeng was stunned when he heard Xu Junze's words. He had also heard a little bit about the case investigated by the Ministry of Punishment. Now many people suspect that Prince Ling is related to the missing treasures of the Ren family. Even Chen Yan, who investigated the case together back then,

Both Prince Qing and Censor Fang were under suspicion, and everyone was guessing who had hidden the treasures.

"General Xu knows where these two people are?" Xiao Chen asked, staring at Xu Junze's face.

"I know!" Xu Junze did not deny it, and then said, "I can hand these two people over to Mr. Xiao, but Mr. Xiao must also understand that there are many people who want their lives now. With Mr. Xiao's ability,

Can we protect their safety?"

"General Xu, there is no need to worry. It is the duty of the Ministry of Justice to protect witnesses, and it is also the responsibility of this subordinate. I, Xiao Chen, will guarantee with my own life that I will never let anything happen to them before the case is heard." Xiao Chen said firmly.

Said hesitantly.

"I believe Mr. Xiao will keep his word, but I hope you can re-investigate the old cases, not only the Fang family's case, but also the Ren family's case, and the investigation must be clear and clear." Xu Junze stated his request.

.

Lei Zhanpeng looked at Xu Junze with a confused face and asked: "The old case is being re-investigated? Why is this? The case of the Ren family was settled a few years ago. Selling iron ore is a serious crime that can be punished by everyone, and it is still a holy crime today.

If the imperial edict from above and below is to re-examine an old case, it would be questioning the Holy One’s original decision, and the Holy One will not allow it.”

Although Lei Zhanpeng doesn't know why Xu Junze wants Xiao Chen's old case to be re-investigated, this matter will definitely not work. Isn't this a slap in the emperor's face? Even if the emperor and Xu Junze are as close as brothers, it will harm the face of the king of a country.

, he is afraid that he will not allow it.

Not only that, while investigating the case of Mr. Fang Censor and the Nine Golden Pagodas, he discovered the case within the case, and unexpectedly learned that there was another hidden story behind the Ren family's iron ore sales, and it looked more like he had been framed.

In the thin gauze curtain, a pair of delicate and white green onion jade fingers slightly opened a corner of the gauze curtain, and then a breeze blew by, and then a enchanting and colorful figure appeared in front of everyone. The charming purple dress made the woman's body look smooth.

Her figure was fully exposed, and a red cinnabar foxtail flower on her forehead made her skin as white as snow, making her look stunning.

And here, in front of the Huaxiang Tower on the banks of the Qiushui River, the crowd became more commotion and restless. Someone shouted: "The oiran lady is out!"

In the blink of an eye, the Lantern Festival is coming again. Lin Shuran remembered the accident that happened last year while watching the lanterns at the Dengchuan Tower. She was still frightened, so she did not plan to take her children out to watch the lanterns at this year's Lantern Festival. Moreover, her fifth uncle was also back.

Huadeng is his master, so he plans to hold a small Lantern Festival party in the General's Mansion. At that time, he will invite all the familiar families to come over, and everyone will eat, drink, and play together. It will be equally warm and happy, but Lei Ying

Ying hasn't come back from Yunzhou yet, and she always feels like something is missing without her.

Now it seems that Xu Junze should also know these things, so he wants to overturn the case for the Ren family, of course, to save himself. After all, once the crime of harboring criminals from the Ren family for many years is exposed, he and the children he adopted will still have

Lin Shuran will all be implicated.

Xiao Chen looked at Xu Junze silently. He knew better than Lei Zhanpeng why Xu Junze had to re-investigate the old case. He had already found out the relationship between Xu Junze and Ren Ying, the eldest young master of the Ren family, and he had also guessed who the Xu family member was.

As for the identity of the third young master, Xu Minghan, he had people secretly check the skeleton of the child who fell off the cliff. It was confirmed that the actual age of the skeleton did not match that of the young master of the Ren family.

"Beautiful, so beautiful!" On this day, many men in the capital lost their souls in Huaxiang Tower.

"I believe in the emperor!" Xu Junze had a resolute look in his eyes, and his tone was confident and resolute. Lei Zhanpeng and Xiao Chen both looked at him at the same time, and both of them felt his absolute trust in the emperor in his expression and tone.

"I will tell the emperor personally about this matter!"

Xu Junze said this, Lei Zhanpeng and Xiao Chen didn't say anything more. They all understood that things were definitely not as easy as Xu Junze said. They all said that the emperor's heart is as deep as the bottom of the sea, and accompanying the emperor is like accompanying a tiger. Who can trust someone like Xu Junze absolutely?

The emperor's ministers are probably rare in the world.

"I know!" Xu Junze replied in a deep voice, but for the sake of the people of the Ren family who died in vain, and for Xu Minghan to be able to tell his identity openly in the future, this matter must be done.

However, Bai Shuangshuang, the court lady, glanced in the direction of Dengchuan Tower very melancholy, but the person she expected most did not come.

Of course Xiao Chen knew this, because Gu Jingcheng died in this battle. He had thought about Lei Zhanpeng's words. He even made a bold guess when investigating the Ren family case, thinking about the man behind the scenes.

Could it be that the emperor is responsible for all this?

"It is my duty to find out the truth. As long as there are problems with the old cases of the Ren family, I have no choice but to shoulder the responsibility!" As long as Xiao Chen encounters an unjust, false or wrong case, he will not back down when encountering any difficulties. He must find out the truth and serve his country.

The victims of suffering are redressed and redressed.

Lei Zhanpeng didn't want to undermine Xiao Chen's confidence, but he still said: "Master Xiao, even if you all want to re-investigate the old case, the Holy Emperor may not allow it. Do you know that a few years ago, Wu'an Hou led an army and fought with the third prince of Xia Kingdom in the border area?

, most of the military resources required come from the property of the Ren family confiscated by the imperial court. If the old case is re-examined, what will the emperor think, what will the civil and military ministers think, and what will the people think!"

Early that morning, Lin Shuran called Xu Mingchen and others to him and told them his idea, saying that he would hold a Lantern Festival party in the mansion.

"Mom, are we really not going out to watch the lanterns this year?" The General's Mansion has never held a Lantern Festival on its own, and Xu Minghao and the others thought it was quite novel.

"I won't go out. On the night of the Lantern Festival, there were too many people outside. It was crowded and chaotic. You are all children. What if something happens again like last year? Let's celebrate the Lantern Festival at home this year. Wait until you grow up.

Now that you're old, you can go and play anywhere!" Lin Shuran took out some invitations, "You can send these invitations to the various governments later!"

"Mom, can I invite my good friends here?" Xu Minghao asked with a smile. He thought of his good friend Xiao Huzi, those beggar friends, and Wei Ying.
