Daqing: Reborn Prince, intercepting Si Lili at the beginning

In such places, human trafficking and prostitution are inevitable!

But because of this, such a place must be extremely secretive.

Yuan Meng has extensive experience in this area.

Over the years, there has been no problem with Xiaoxiang Tower.

The prince never doubted it.

Even the Inspection Office didn't notice anything.

Why is it suddenly exposed now?

And the person who discovered it was the third brother who was very weak?

This is what Li Chengze and Li Hongcheng are most puzzled about.

At this moment, both of them were extremely shocked, but neither of them showed it.

What if Li Chengyuan is bluffing?

They cannot afford to lose their composure.

Not only them, even Yuan Meng was not panicked.

Although she was scared to death at this moment.

But years of experience told her that the more panicked she was at such moments, the faster she would die.

So no matter how scared she was, she had to pretend to be wronged.

The three of them were holding on, but Fan Xian opened his mouth in shock when he heard Li Chengyuan's words!

Who?

Yuan Meng?

Human trafficking? Prostitution?

Is there such a thing?

No wonder Li Chengyuan had the heart to torture Yuan Meng!

If this is true, he would not hesitate to let Fan Xian carry out the execution himself!

At this moment, Fan Xian was already a little confused.

So his beating is not important?

He Zongwei opened his mouth, then swallowed it back.

He wanted to remind everyone not to go off topic, but he didn't dare to speak.

While lying on the stretcher, Guo Baokun wanted to speak, but because of the beating he was receiving, he could only make "wuwuwu..." sounds.

"Third brother!"

The prince was excited!

He originally just wanted to get a Fan Xian, but he didn't expect to get an unexpected gain now?

Others may not know, but the prince knows it very well.

He knew that Yuan Meng was Li Hongcheng's man.

So if what Li Chengyuan said is true, then Li Chengze is definitely not free from involvement!

Although direct evidence may not be found.

But people’s words are scary!

If this matter gets out of hand, Li Chengze will definitely be punished!

Therefore, the prince was the most excited and immediately asked impatiently, "Does Third Brother have any evidence?"

"Of course!" Li Chengyuan nodded. Just as he was about to produce evidence, he heard Li Chengze say, "Third brother, we're trying Fan Xian now. Let's talk about your case later!"

Upon hearing this, the prince was dissatisfied and said, "Second brother, what are you talking about? How can trafficking people and forcing women into prostitution be compared to arranging a meeting and beating people?"

Since Third Brother already has evidence, he should naturally try the major cases first!"

Li Chengze heard this and said, "So, according to His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, Fan Xian's case will not be tried, and Fan Xian can be released without charge?"

"Of course that's impossible!" The prince said, "Fan Xian must be tried for assaulting someone, and the case at Xiaoxiang Tower must also be tried. The two are not in conflict!"

"Then there has to be a first come first served basis, right?"

“First come, first served is correct, but priorities are more important!”

"A case like human trafficking can't be concluded in a day or two. Does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince want Fan Xian and Guo Baokun to wait in court for a day or two?"

The Crown Prince and Li Chengze refused to give in to each other and were at loggerheads!

The meaning of both of them is very clear.

The prince wanted to try Fan Xian, but he also didn't want to let Li Chengze go.

Li Chengze tried his best to protect Fan Xian, but the most important thing was to buy time so that he could send people to Xiaoxiang Tower to destroy the body!

Neither of them wanted to let the other succeed.

So after the two argued for a while, Li Chengyuan coughed lightly and said, "I think it's better to do this!"

As soon as Li Chengyuan opened his mouth, everyone looked at him.

Li Chengyuan paused and said, "Prefect Mei, since I have reported Yuan Meng, her case must be investigated.

But we can't delay Fan Xian's case.

So how about this, you continue to interrogate Fan Xian first.

At the same time, people were immediately sent to Xiaoxiang Tower to arrest people and seal off Xiaoxiang Tower first to prevent the bodies from being destroyed.

As for the relevant evidence about Xiaoxiang Tower, I can give it to you later, and you can investigate it slowly then!"

Mei Zhili was in a dilemma.

He didn't want to offend any of the Crown Prince, the Second Prince, and the Third Prince.

Now, upon hearing the third prince's best-of-both-worlds idea, he was overjoyed and quickly turned to the crown prince for his opinion.

The prince had no objection to Li Chengyuan's proposal, so he nodded and said, "You are the prefect, you decide!"

Mei Zhili understood and hurriedly looked at Li Chengze again.

Li Chengze took a breath and looked at Li Chengyuan deeply.

Naturally, he was unhappy with this decision.

But he could not find any flaw in Li Chengyuan's proposal, and if he continued to oppose it, it would be "unreasonable".

When the time comes, he will have no reason to resist when the prince uses his power to oppress others.

So instead of embarrassing yourself, it is better to obey first and see how the situation develops.

"Just listen to Third Brother!"

"Good!" Mei Zhili was overjoyed and breathed a sigh of relief.

The two ancestors finally reached a consensus.

Thanks to the Third Prince!

With the plan, Mei Zhili knew what to do.

He first ordered the government constables to immediately seal off the Baoyue Tower and bring back relevant witnesses and evidence.

Then he continued to try the case.

But just as he picked up the gavel, he heard Li Chengze speak again.

"Prefect Mei, since Yuan Meng is now a suspect, then she is no longer considered a witness, right?"

Mei Zhili quickly said, "This... naturally doesn't count!"

In fact, the suspect can also serve as a witness, but Mei Zhili did not dare to say so.

Li Chengze heard this and said, "Since she is not considered a witness, there is no need to interrogate her!"

"But..." Mei Zhili hesitated, "But if we don't try her, what will happen to Fan Xian's case?"

"Isn't there Hongcheng? Can't he also testify for Fan Xian?"

"Oh, yes, yes!" Mei Zhili nodded immediately.

The prince here is not going to do it anymore.

"Second brother, the Mei prefect is investigating the case. Aren't you meddling too much?"

Li Chengze laughed and said, "Your Highness the Crown Prince seemed to have said a lot just now, didn't he?"

"Haha!" The prince shook his head and said, "Alright, I have to give Second Brother face. Mei Zhili, there's no need to try Yuan Meng. Just throw him directly into jail. I have other witnesses in Fan Xian's case!"

"Ah? Your Highness, do you have any other witnesses?" Mei Zhili first had Yuan Meng taken away, then turned to the Crown Prince and asked, "Excuse me, Your Highness, where are the witnesses?"

"Bring the people here!"

Probably because he was afraid of delaying the trial of Yuan Meng, the prince didn't plan to waste any more time and went straight to the point.

Then, under Fan Xian's shocked and angry gaze, two guards came up, carrying Teng Zijing.

"Who is this?" Li Chengze asked in confusion.

The prince stood up and shouted, "When Guo Baokun was beaten yesterday, the assailant repeatedly mentioned the whereabouts of Teng Zijing's family!

At that time, I was wondering, wasn’t Teng Zijing killed by Fan Xian in Kyoto?

Why does the murderer always mention his family?

Then I checked and found that Teng Zijing's family had actually been sent out of the city.

Not only that, I found him outside of town!

You may not know him, so let me introduce him to you. He is Teng Zijing, whom Fan Xian claimed to have killed!

So, here comes the problem.

Fan Xian, since you said you killed Teng Zijing, then who is he?
