This son-in-law is wicked in a good way!

Guan Tianyou sent out a physician under his command, who was thirty-five or thirty-six years old and named Lin Xu. He was capable and had always been regarded as a confidant.

Seeing that the scene had quieted down, Lin Xu said with an authoritative expression, "Fellow students, my Minister said that the Ministry of Justice will definitely handle the case impartially and will not wrong an innocent person. You may go back and wait for the results."

Someone in the crowd immediately shouted, "We want to see Chen Zhishi. Who knows if Sun Xing has abused his power?"

"That's right, let Chen Zhishi come out to see us. Only when we see Chen Zhishi will we feel at ease."

Lin Xu coldly shouted, "Insolence!"

"That Chen Zhishi committed armed robbery in the street; he's a serious criminal. Do you think you can just see him whenever you want!"

"Disperse immediately, or you will be charged with rioting!"

After saying that, Lin Xu waved to the dozen or so constables.

Cough cough cough...

A sound like a broadsword being drawn from its sheath rang out.

The sharp blade gleamed coldly in the sunlight, startling the students who involuntarily took a few steps back.

After this commotion, the objective has been achieved. Zhang Ping'an wouldn't be foolish enough to let these students confront the Ministry of Justice.

He immediately said, "Fellow students, since the officials from the Ministry of Justice have already given us a reply, let's go back and wait."

"We will come again on the day Brother Chen is publicly tried."

Lin Xu quickly followed up by advising, "That's right, everyone should go back and wait. Your studies are the most important thing. Don't waste your precious time here. You should trust the officials in charge of the Ministry of Justice."

Once they can disperse these students, they will have plenty of time and means to get Chen Zhishi to confess.

"Everyone, disperse! Disperse!"

Seeing the dozen or so gleaming longswords, the students dared not confront them head-on and began to back down.

Soon, the crowd dispersed in an orderly fashion, and at Zhang Ping'an's urging, they returned to the academy to await news.

Zhang Ping'an, Wu Yuan, and Hao Shuwen stayed behind.

He certainly couldn't wait for the Ministry of Justice to hold a public trial; by then, it would be too late.

He wanted to use this time to spread the news as much as possible, preferably to the Empress's ears.

"The three of us split up, do you all remember what to do?"

In a quiet alley, Zhang Ping'an looked at the two and asked.

"I've got it." Hao Shuwen nodded nervously.

"Don't worry, if we can't even handle this little thing, we might as well just find a latrine and jump in," Wu Yuan patted his chest and assured him.

Hearing this, Hao Shuwen became even more nervous.

However, it's not difficult to simply find storytellers in taverns and teahouses and pay them to spread the word.

"We'll meet here again in an hour."

"kindness."

Three people, six hands stacked together.

"Be careful!"

"The same to you."

The three immediately split up and took action.

The Sun residence.

Sun Guihua, the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, is in his fifties, but he is very well-maintained and looks several years younger than his peers.

At this moment, Sun Guihua was washing her face with the help of her maid.

However, Lord Sun didn't wash his face with water, but with milk, a real facial cleanser.

Two beautiful pregnant women who had recently given birth were brought to the Sun residence and forced to have half a basin of breast milk squeezed out for Sun Guihua to wash her face.

He did this simply because he listened to a charlatan who claimed that breast milk produced by a woman after childbirth could slow down aging and prolong life.

However, Sun Guihua was very careful about his image. Although many of these pregnant women were forced into marriage, they would receive a considerable sum of money after the fact.

So, over the years, nothing bad has happened.

Moreover, whether it's due to her mindset or the method actually working, Sun Guihua does look much younger than her peers.

Sun Xing was standing outside Sun Guihua's room; he had been standing there ever since he returned from the Ministry of Justice.

Hearing the commotion inside, Sun Xing's face darkened.

As Sun Guihua's son, he was naturally aware of his perverse hobbies.

Moreover, Sun Guihua's perverted hobby led to his mother's death from depression.

Sun Xing dared not blame Sun Guihua, so he resented the pregnant women, and later even all women.

Over the years, he has frequently abused and murdered women in order to vent the hatred that has accumulated in his heart since he was a teenager.

Finally, there was no more movement in the room.

Sun Xing immediately suppressed the endless hatred on his face, lowered his head, and became extremely obedient, like a child who had done something wrong and was waiting for his parents to criticize him.

Squeak!

The door opened, and a refreshed Sun Guihua walked out with his head held high.

He was tall, had a refined demeanor, and an excellent appearance; no matter how you looked at him, he seemed like a gentleman.

"Father, I know I was wrong, please forgive me!"

Sun Xing hurriedly and proactively admitted his mistake, his attitude was very sincere, and no one could find fault with him.

Sun Guihua merely glanced at him indifferently, her tone cold: "Go and receive three rounds of family discipline yourself."

Upon hearing this, Sun Xing's expression changed drastically, and his body trembled with fear.

But he still kept his head down, silently walked to the room next door, picked up a silver needle the length of a chopstick from the altar, and stabbed it hard into his thigh three times.

His face was contorted in pain, but he didn't utter a sound.

However, that ferocious face became even more sinister and terrifying.

After receiving the family punishment, Sun Xing obediently went to the hall.

Sun Guihua began to sit at the head of the table and drink tea.

Sun Xing stood respectfully to the left, and after Sun Guihua finished drinking his tea, he hurriedly took the teacup and held it in his hands.

Sun Guihua nodded and said, "Do you know where you went wrong this time?"

Sun Xing said, "I shouldn't have been lustful and forced myself on that woman."

Sun Guihua sneered: "A lowly commoner like me is not worth mourning."

"Your mistake was being too soft-hearted and letting those poor scholars from the academy leave."

"If you had killed them back then, then wiped out everyone on that street, and set it on fire, we wouldn't be in this mess now."

Sun Xing's temples throbbed violently as he listened.

He thought he was crazy enough, but compared to his own father, he was as innocent as a little white flower!

"Your son will heed your teachings, Father!"

"I will never make this mistake again."

Sun Guihua nodded: "You can go now. Don't go out for the next few days. I've already informed Zhang Xuanling to handle things at the academy."

"Wait until the Ministry of Justice convicts that arrogant, poor scholar before you come out."

"Yes, Your Highness, I take my leave!"

Son Heung-min is so well-behaved it's unbelievable.

However, the moment he turned around, the expression on his face immediately turned ferocious.

Sun Xing returned to his room and quickly treated the wound on his thigh.

Then I changed my clothes and went out.

As for Sun Guihua's confession, it was completely ignored.

He went to a restaurant and went up to a private room on the second floor.

Inside the private room, a young man dressed in black was drinking alone, and he looked somewhat similar to Zhang Xuanling.

Sun Xing walked over, sat directly opposite him, picked up the wine glass on the table, tilted his head back and drank it all in one gulp.

"I'm so sorry, Brother Sun, I really didn't expect things to turn out this way," the young man in black sighed.

Sun Xing said coldly, "It's not your fault, it's all that poor wretch Chen Zhishi's fault."

"As for your brother, humph, he's a spineless coward. He doesn't dare to stand up for himself, and you can't even find an excuse to deal with him."

"That kind of person isn't worth your time."

If Zhang Ping'an were here, he would definitely recognize that this person was his second brother, Zhang Shu.

He was the most cunning and promising member of the Zhang family, and also Zhang Xuanling's most prized son.
