Night Watchman: Linked to the Legend of Sword and Fairy game, strongly promoting Huaiqing.

Nangong Qianrou frowned as she watched Zhu Yang leave in a hurry.

She parted her lips and asked, "What happened to Zhu Yang? Why is he so angry?"

The subordinate replied, "I'll go and find out."

His men left immediately.

after a little while.

The subordinate rushed back and said, "Sir, something has happened."

"Zhu Chengzhu and others abused their power and assaulted women. They were caught by Li Yinluo and taken to the government office for questioning."

"Zhu Yang heard about this and left in a hurry."

"Li Xuan?" Nangong Qianrou was startled when she heard this.

"Let's go, we're there right now!"

Without saying a word, she rushed over immediately.

···········

The government office.

The constables from the yamen returned in a hurry, carrying some case files.

Someone stepped forward and said, "Reporting to your Excellency, after investigation, we found that Zhu Chengzhu and his men did indeed commit various crimes, all of which are true."

"These are all pieces of evidence gathered during the investigation, along with relevant case file information."

He immediately handed over a large stack of files and evidence.

The prefect took it and quickly began to look through it.

From a distance, his face appeared cold and gloomy.

"Humph!"

Finally, he let out a cold snort.

"An investigation revealed that Zhu Chengzhu and his subordinates committed numerous serious crimes."

"The evidence is conclusive!"

"Obey the order!"

"Immediately detain Zhu Chengzhu and his men in prison, and execute them in three days!"

Zhu Chengzhu's crimes destined him to be beheaded and his head displayed to the public.

Furthermore, with such conclusive evidence, there's no way to overturn the verdict.

Even if Zhu Yang came, it would be the same.

Therefore, the prefect did not think much and immediately made a judgment.

Soon, Zhu Chengzhu and his companions were detained.

The prefect looked at Li Xuan and said, "Li Xuan, you'd better be careful in the future. I doubt Zhu Yang will let you off the hook."

He belonged to the Ministry of Justice, so even though the night watchman was in charge of monitoring all officials, he wielded enormous power.

As long as he doesn't commit a crime, Zhu Yang can only resent him, but can't do anything about it.

However, if Li Xuan takes Zhu Yang's son, Zhu Yang will definitely harbor deep resentment towards him.

Li Xuan said, "It's alright, Zhu Yang won't be able to cause trouble soon."

"It's good that you know what's going on." The prefect nodded.

He didn't want to get involved in the power struggles among the night watchmen.

So I didn't press the matter further.

at this time.

"Be bold!"

"How dare you stop me!"

Angry voices came from outside, and then a group of people rushed in.

It was Zhu Yang and his men who had rushed over.

"Zhu Yang is here!"

Upon seeing this, the prefect whispered something.

Li Xuan turned around and looked out, his expression unchanged.

"Li Xuan!"

Upon seeing Li Xuan, Zhu Yang was instantly enraged.

"What did you do to my son?"

Li Xuan said calmly, "Zhu Chengzhu has committed crimes, including assaulting women and coveting money. He has been convicted and will be executed in three days."

boom!

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yang felt as if he had been struck by lightning.

"impossible!"

"You are slandering and framing me!"

He stared intently at Li Xuan and the prefect, his face grim and filled with murderous intent.

Li Xuan sneered, "It's fortunate that Zhu Chengzhu doesn't have any evidence of your crimes on him, otherwise do you think you'd still be able to roar here now?"

Zhu Chengzhu's storage space only contained records of his own crimes, not those of his father, Zhu Yang.

Therefore, Li Xuan could not convict Zhu Yang.

Otherwise, it would have already been taken down.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yang's pupils contracted.

But he quickly recovered and angrily retorted, "Prefect Lin, is this how you judge cases?"

"If you don't give me an explanation, I will go to the palace to report this matter."

The night watchman only obeys the emperor.

As a Golden Gong, one can also enter the palace to report.

Therefore, Zhu Yang had the authority to enter the palace and report this matter.

Upon hearing this, the prefect was somewhat wary, but quickly calmed down.

He replied, "We have all the evidence, the witnesses, everything."

"Zhu Chengzhu's crimes deserve to be punished by execution."

"If Zhu Jinluo is not satisfied, he can go to the Ministry of Justice to appeal."

Li Xuan sneered from the side, "By the way, the reason your son was sentenced to death is that he brought it upon himself and deserved it."

"He actually kept a record of his own crimes and embezzlement, which was a great help."

If it were merely a matter of violating women and abusing vigilante justice, it really wouldn't be enough to get to Zhu Chengzhu.

At most, they would be dismissed or demoted.

After all, he didn't succeed in the assault, so the charge isn't serious.

But the ledger on his person dealt him a fatal blow.

All I can say is that they brought it on themselves.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yang's face contorted as he stared intently at Li Xuan.

"Li Xuan, if anything happens to my son, I will kill you!"

If it weren't for the fact that it was in the government office, he would have wanted to kill Li Xuan on the spot.

"Humph!"

Just then, a humming sound came from outside.

"Zhu Jinluo is so arrogant!"

"How dare you threaten someone right in front of me!"

Nangong Qianrou and her group of subordinates hurriedly entered.

She came up to Li Xuan, stood in front of him, and said, "Zhu Chengzhu is guilty of heinous crimes. There is evidence and witnesses to prove that he deserves to die."

"Is Zhu Jinluo's action an attempt to disregard the law and rebel?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yang's expression darkened.

When Nangong Qianrou came over, he knew he was powerless to change the facts.

"I won't let this go!"

He glared at Li Xuan resentfully before turning and leaving.
