Chapter 268: Chapter 120-get lost (1)

“Go in and get him.”

“Yes.” Xiao ran responded.

The guards wanted to stop Xiao ran, but Qin Fangzhen sent out a palm strike and sent all of them flying.

Xiao ran entered the residence with his men and brought the Butler out.

“Bring him back for interrogation.” Qin Fangzhen said.

He seemed to have guessed Xiao ran’s thoughts and explained,”Master Fu told me that I saw you on my way here.”

Xiao ran understood that he must have left the palace by now.

“We’re still missing one more. ”

“Who is it?” Qin Fangzhen asked.

“The left Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Rites.” Xiao ran said.

“You bring him back, I’ll go and catch him.” Qin Fangzhen said.

“Yes.” Xiao ran nodded.

He brought him back to the Imperial prison.

The Lieutenant ordered his men to tie him to the iron frame.

“You should know why I want to capture you,” Xiao ran looked at him coldly.

“I know,” The Butler admitted.

“Are you going to say it yourself, or do you want me to do it?”

“What do you want to know?” The Butler asked.

“Where did you get the answers to the exam paper?” Xiao ran asked.

“The old master gave it to me.” The Butler said.

“？？？”Xiao ran was stunned.

Things went so smoothly and unexpectedly without any torture. Did he confess? Did he directly expose the person behind the scenes?

“Sir, aren’t you too direct?” the Lieutenant said.

At this moment, a group of divine sword guards came in with a middle-aged man. From his official uniform, he should be the left Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Rites.

“Vice Sword Master Qin asked me to hand him over to you.” The leader of the purple sword guards said.

Xiao ran took the person from his hands and the other party left quickly.

Just as he was tied up and before he could speak, the left Assistant Minister took the initiative to explain,””I stole the exam questions, no one instructed me to do so. It’s me who’s greedy and wants to take advantage of this opportunity to earn a huge sum of money. ”

“You don’t have the final say.” Xiao ran mocked.

If it was only a Butler who said that, it would make sense, even though it was suspicious.

However, he was the left Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Rites, a high-ranking official of the court. There must be something fishy going on since he didn’t even use any punishment.

Just as he was about to carry out the punishment, a jailer ran over.

He whispered a few words into the lieutenant’s ear and left.

The Lieutenant walked up to him.”Your Excellency, the Minister of Justice is here.”

He looked at the left Assistant Minister and the housekeeper and muttered to himself,”take them away.”

The sound of footsteps rang out.

The Minister of Justice, Lin weiyong, walked in from outside with two attendants.

She looked at Xiao ran, who was standing in the hall, with a judgmental gaze that seemed to be able to see through him.

Xiao ran was also sizing him up. He had a middle-aged face, a square face, and a resolute look. He exuded a sense of authority without being angry.

Just nice.

Their gazes met in the air.

Lin weiyong waved his hand and dismissed the attendants, leaving only the two of them.

“You are Xiao ran? Zheng Qing’s brother?”

“If there’s no one with the same name, then it must be me.” Xiao ran said.

“Sit.” Lin weiyong pulled out a chair and sat down.

Xiao ran sat opposite him.

Holding the teapot, Lin weiyong poured a cup of tea for him before pouring a cup for himself. He thought of the investigation information he had read about Xiao ran before he came to the Imperial prison.

He stuck to his principles and rarely changed his mind. He once held the eldest princess’s token and was suspected to be the eldest princess’s man.

“How is Zheng Qing now?” Lin weiyong asked.

“He has no interactions with you. Do you think I’ll tell you?” Xiao ran retorted.

Holding the teacup, he shook it slightly and sipped the tea.

He wasn’t angry. Instead, he put on a gentle smile. “You’re his brother. You know about all the unhappy things that happened before, right?”

Seeing that Xiao ran was silent, he continued.

“We’re looking at things from different perspectives, so we’ll consider things differently. I’m her father, and I have to be responsible for her future happiness. No matter what kind of person her other half is, he should at least have some small achievements and not just a small scholar. ”

He sighed, as if he was regretting his actions.

“It’s been so long, but Shan ‘er is still deeply in love with him. She bathes her face with tears every day and only eats one meal a day. I’ve seen all of this, and although I didn’t say it out loud, my heart still hurts. ”

Xiao ran remained unmoved.

Lin weiyong’s heart was cold, but in order to save his son, he had to endure it.

He stood up from his chair and bowed to Xiao ran solemnly.”I’m here to apologize to Zheng Qing!”

He sat on the chair again.

“I’ve been thinking about their relationship for a long time. I’ve been looking for a chance to tell him that I’ve agreed to let him date my daughter. You’re his brother, so please tell him this.”

“You came here for this matter?” Xiao ran wanted to laugh. He felt that his acting was very poor, even worse than a passerby who was reciting lines.

“There’s one more family matter. ” Lin weiyong said.

“After my daughter and Zheng Qing have a family, you’ll be his brother, and we’ll be a family. He had heard that his son had drawn a picture on his sleeve and was locked up in the Imperial prison. Can you do me a favor and let me take her away?”

“Aren’t you afraid of the Imperial court’s investigation?” Xiao ran asked.

Lin weiyong said seriously,”you don’t have to worry about the Imperial court. I’ll settle it.” I’ll even think of a way to deal with His Majesty. ”

“Do you think I’ll agree to it?” Xiao ran asked again.

“You will! The relationship between you and Zheng Qing is extraordinary. You are a smart person, and I believe you know what to do. ”

Xiao ran took the teapot and poured himself a cup of tea. He then picked up the teacup and finished it.

She looked at him seriously.

“You can leave now.”

Lin weiyong was taken aback and suspected that he had heard wrong.”You won’t agree?”

“I don’t have a relapse.” Xiao ran said.

“Why? I’ve already agreed to Zheng Qing dating my daughter. ”

“First of all, not everyone is as bad as you think! Second, as you said, I’m his brother. He calls me “brother Xiao.” I know him very well. He won’t want cheap love. He would rather be single than agree. Third, these examinees had studied hard for ten years just for today. They’ve paid too much and suffered far more than you can imagine. They just want a fair competition, and since I’m in charge of this matter, I have to be responsible for them. ” Xiao ran said firmly.

“I don’t believe it!” Lin weiyong shook his head.

“Silver, power, beauties, what do you want? As long as you say the word, I can give it to you!”

“I’ll give you one word. ”

“？？？”Lin weiyong frowned.

“Get lost!” Xiao ran berated.

Bang! Bang!

Lin weiyong’s face was livid, and he slammed his palm on the table.

“Throw him out,” Xiao ran ordered.

The Lieutenant rushed forward with the jailers. Lin weiyong was furious and scolded coldly,””Who dares to touch me?”
