Chapter 401 Freedom
“What? Lan Hongjun is dead?”
In the court hall of Dali Temple, everyone was shocked when they heard the report from the two Mingjiange secret envoys.
"Yes."
Liu Xingyuan said solemnly: "The dagger he used to commit suicide is exactly the same as the dagger Yue Heng mentioned just now. It should have been hidden in the secret compartment of the wheelchair... …Now that his evil deeds are about to be exposed, he is either afraid of crime or afraid of punishment within the clan, so he finally takes a Qiyuan Pill and commits suicide with a knife while regaining his strength.”
There was a sigh of relief in the hall, but Yue Heng showed an extremely complicated wry smile.
Only Fu Qingzhou, his eyes immediately locked on the lost Gu Jinchen who was standing aside with his hands hanging down.
“Do you think he killed you?”
In my mind, the smoker’s voice rang.
Fu Qingzhou sneered in his heart: "I don't think people like Lan Hongjun will commit suicide."
"Interesting..." Yan Gui said with a smile: "Then can I think that Gu Jinchen planned Yue Heng's incident? On the surface, he was venting his anger on his own son, but in fact, he also plotted Lan Hongjun. Ruofeng wanted to go to Lan If the wind blows at you, he will help kill Yue Heng; on the contrary, if the wind blows towards you, he will stand on your side?”
“That’s not necessarily the case”
Fu Qingzhou leisurely. Said: "Last time he talked about the grievances with the Lan family, even you didn't think he was lying. At least in those things, I think he was sincere."
"That's it." Smoker He tutted and said: "That means he had planned to get rid of Lan Hongjun, but Yue Heng was just a tool in his plan."
Fu Qingzhou snorted: "This guy is cruel and ruthless. , He is both wise and brave, he is a very powerful person...be careful with him.”
On this side, Dali Zheng has already pronounced his sentence.
“Regarding the case of book theft, Yue Heng was originally accused of committing this crime. However, after investigation, it was actually Lan Shaozhong who colluded with the clerk of Zhangjian Academy to steal books and deliberately framed the blame. Yu Yueheng. Lan Shaozhong and the minor officials have been detained by the government and will be severely punished in accordance with the law to serve as a warning."
"As for the serious injury to Lan Hongjun, after detailed investigation, it was found that Lan Hongjun was the one holding the knife. He attacked Yue Heng first, intending to kill him. In order to protect himself, Yue Heng used magic to fight back, causing Lan Hongjun to be seriously injured. Later, Lan Hongjun chose to commit suicide out of fear of crime. "
" As mentioned above..."
Dali said solemnly: "Yue Heng was innocent in this case. He did not steal the book, but it was self-defense."
Yue Heng's eyes sparkled, and he turned to look at Fu Qingzhou.
Although they all knew that this was the result, they still couldn't hide the joy in their eyes.
It's just that there is something inexplicable in Fu Qingzhou's eyes.
The death of Lan Hongjun is full of doubts. Neither Mingjiange nor Dali Temple could have noticed it at all... but they seemed to have no intention of pursuing the matter at all.
Is this just because of Bai Jin’s explanation? But the most the Metropolitan Procuratorate can do is urge the case to be handled. He has no connection with me, so he can't get a group of people to all side with him, right?
In addition, all the officials had left the court, deliberately leaving a chance for Yue Heng to rest...
Fu Qingzhou had a vague feeling that there was something he didn't know about here.
But now, it doesn't matter for the time being.
“This government pronounces the verdict in accordance with the Dayan Law!”
Dali was stunned and said: “Yue Heng, acquitted!”
...
"Brother Fu...it's really like a dream."
Yue Heng and Fu Qingzhou walked slowly, filled with emotions.
He knelt for too long, and even though he secretly rested for a while, his legs were still numb and stiff.
Fu Qingzhou supported him and slowly walked out of Dali Temple.
"Brother-in-law, this is not a dream." He smiled and said: "You have survived this disaster, your reputation has been restored, and you can continue your dream."
"Yes...it's true, "It's like a dream."
Yue Heng said softly: "Not long ago, Xiaosheng was in jail. Although he still had hope in his heart, he also thought that the case would still require a long period of investigation and trial. He never expected that it would be. The decision was finalized in most of the day. "
Fu Qingzhou smiled and said nothing, but looked ahead - at the entrance of Dali Temple, where Gu Jinchen stood with his hands lowered, as if waiting for someone.
Of course the only one he can wait for is himself.
"Brother-in-law, wait for me for a while."
Fu Qingzhou patted him on the shoulder, and then strode towards Gu Jinchen.
"Young Master Fu."
Gu Jinchen saluted him: "I have fulfilled my promise."
Fu Qingzhou looked at him deeply: "You killed me Lan Hongjun.”
"Young Master Fu, I don't know what you are talking about?" Gu Jinchen's expression did not change at all, and he whispered: "Young Master...he committed suicide out of fear of crime."
Fu Qingzhou said expressionlessly, "You are the one who committed suicide." The person who framed Brother-in-law, not only that, you also framed Lan Hongjun and Lan Shaozhong... I do want to save Brother-in-law, but this method is not needed."
"Fu Shaoxia. , please don’t talk nonsense.”
Gu Jinchen said calmly: “It is the young master who wants to harm Mr. Yue. As his pupil, I may have to offer some advice, but after Mr. Yue was imprisoned, I also In order to save Mr. Yue, he revealed his relationship with the Yuan family to the Ministry of Punishment."
"It is an indisputable fact that Mr. Shao Zhong stole books from Zhangjian Academy. In order to escape the crime, my son had everything dirty. The water was thrown to Young Master Shao Zhong... But after that, because of your suggestion, Mr. Fu, my young master had no choice but to commit suicide." He raised his head, looked at Fu Qingzhou calmly, and said word by word: "The whole process. In the story, the villain may have made suggestions for the young master, but he also provided clues and evidence for Mr. Yue's escape. Even if he has no merit, he must have no fault. "
No leaks, thoughtful and meticulous.
Fu Qingzhou laughed.
He reached out and patted Gu Jinchen on the shoulder: "You are right, I am pedantic - I promised to let you do what you want to do, so what do you need my help with? "
Gu Jinchen smiled slightly: "It's great that Fu Shaoxia can think like this."
He blinked and lowered his voice: "Now that Mr. Lan is dead, as his book boy, the Lan family will definitely not make it easy for me...unless I can do something big for the Lan family."
Fu Qingzhou looked at him and said nothing.
Gu Jinchen continued: "Mr. Yue's future father-in-law will be the son-in-law of the Yuan family - the Lan family and the Yuan family. Both families have many children serving as officials in the court. Maybe because of this, there will be Serious rifts or even fights are not what the Lan family wants to see."
Fu Qingzhou smiled: "You want to reconcile the relationship between the two aristocratic families and calm down the trouble caused by this case."
< br>“Not bad.”
Gu Jinchen nodded and said: "As long as this is done, the Lan family will look high on me."
"This matter is very simple." Fu Qingzhou said slowly: "Yue Heng has not yet joined the Yuan family, nor has he To obtain fame, the Yuan family may not know that there is such a figure as him - on the contrary, when Lan Hongjun dies, it is the Lan family who will be resentful."
Gu Jinchen's eyes lit up: "What Shaoxia Fu means is this. , As long as the attitude of the Lan family is resolved..."
"Yes, what you need is the key person of the Lan family."
Fu Qingzhou said softly: "Do you know whether the Lan family is. Is there an important person whose words can determine a big thing? If you can find such a person and find a way to make him eliminate the impact, it will be a success. ”
Gu Jinchen laughed: "Indeed, there is such a person."
"Tell me his name." Fu Qingzhou said lightly: "Since I promised you, I will not regret it."
"Okay...her name is Lan Xiyu."
Gu Jinchen lowered his head: "She is Lan Wanxiong's sister and Lan Hongjun's aunt... But young hero, she has always treated Lan Hong Jun loves her very much. Now that the young master is dead, she should be one of the saddest and angriest people besides Mr. Wan Xiong. How can we convince her? "
"Lan Xiyu..." Fu Qingzhou repeated? After repeating the name, he smiled slightly and said: "An injured and wronged disciple of a family may be very important; but if he is already dead, it is not important at all."
"You should understand this. If you dare to throw all the dirty water on Lan Shaozhong for stealing books, you will understand that even if he is a student of Palm Sword Academy, as long as he is convicted of stealing books, the Lan family will never protect him. He."
Fu Qingzhou said lightly: "The Lan family is a family, and there are always countless children in the family. Should I sacrifice one or two less important people, or sacrifice the perfection and nobility of the entire family? I think this decision? , it’s easy to do.”
Hearing what he said, a flower gradually bloomed on Gu Jinchen’s face.
He lowered his head and bowed deeply to Fu Qingzhou.
"Young Master Fu, you have learned a lesson."
He said seriously: "Then, I still hope that you can help me find Lan Xiyu and clarify the stakes."
Fu Qingzhou nodded slightly and said no more.
After knowing the identity and name, it couldn't be easier to find someone. If he wanted to save trouble, he could write a letter, go to the Nebula Chamber of Commerce, spend some money to ask the other party to run errands, and that would be it.
Gu Jinchen stopped being polite, bowed again, and retreated respectfully and humbly.
Watching Gu Jinchen turn and leave, the smoker's voice sounded in his mind again.
"That's not right, Mr. Fu, this isn't your style?"
It said faintly: "You know what this little fat guy has done, and you still help him?"
"He Hidden deeply enough." Fu Qingzhou looked at Gu Jinchen's back and replied in his mind: "Everything is just my guess, there is no solid evidence... No matter how much he looks like a villain, I can't just say that he is a villain, maybe Lan Is Hongjun really committing suicide out of fear of crime? "
"As for what I promised him, a gentleman's words are hard to follow, and I can't go back on it."
"Of course, with his ability, I can't go back on it. Give him a push, and he will soon climb higher and higher - a person like this can be hidden for a while, but not forever. I will keep an eye on him. If he really becomes a bad person, I will make amends for myself with my own hands. ”
While talking, Yue Heng walked over slowly.
"Brother Fu."
He asked doubtfully: "Do you know Lan Hongjun's book boy?"
"It's not important anymore." Fu Qingzhou smiled and turned around Body: "It's very late now, and the carriage can't go on the road. I'll take you to a nearby inn to rest first, and then go to my courtyard tomorrow to wash away your bad luck!"
"Okay!"
Yue Heng also laughed and waved his arms high: "I want to have a big meal to celebrate my freedom!"
In the distance, on the deserted night street, Gu Jinchen walked slowly, slowly. Slowly spread his arms and looked up at the sky.
On the sky, there is a bright galaxy.
"Finally..."
He grinned and tears fell from his eyes: "Free!"
