Prince Kang stared at Lou Yan in front of him.

"It's you! It's you!"

The person who plotted against him was Lou Si.

Lou Yan smiled: "What's wrong with the prince? His hands are shaking so hard. Are you sick? Then don't be out there and go back to the royal palace and ask the imperial physician to treat it."

Prince Kang reached out and wanted to grab his collar.

Yuan Zhang hurriedly shouted: "Criminal! Prince! Don't do it! This is the Political Affairs Hall!"

The officials heard the voice and hurriedly came to stop him, shouting: "Don't be angry."

The only trace of reason left finally made Prince Kang stop.

He tried his best to restrain himself. If he had fought in the political affairs hall and was used to make trouble in the future, then the thing he was thinking about would be impossible.

However, when he thought of himself being played with by Lou Yan and his arm was broken, he was still angry.

He shook his arms and whispered: "Let go!"

Seeing that he had regained his rationality, the officials hesitated and let go.

Prince Kang took care of his clothes, held his head up, and still looked very arrogant as usual.

"Are you declaring war on this prince?" he asked sternly.

Lou Yan sighed: "The prince doesn't know what the prince is talking about."

"Don't you know?" Prince Kang laughed and glanced at the file on the case. "The evidence has been collected so much, have you been waiting for this day for a long time?"

Lou Yan was still calm and said, "The prince may have forgotten that he was a doctor in the Ministry of Justice, and this is just a matter of duty."

"What a matter of duty." Prince Kang sneered, "If you don't investigate others, just investigate Xiao Da?"

"The prince is wrong. There are so many people in the investigation. After all, he is not the only one who does evil things, right?"

This is very true, but Prince Kang always feels that there is something in his words.

He felt nervous and thought of the many officials under the Kang Prince's Mansion. In this Lou Si, did he check on the others? Who will be the next one?

This silence disappeared.

Lou Yan bowed: "If the prince is fine, the official will go and do the job first."

Prince Kang knew that there was nothing he could do about him today, so he could only think about asking him back in the future, so he snorted heavily and turned around and left.

Seeing him leaving the Political Affairs Hall, Lou Yan turned around and picked up the file and said goodbye to Yuan Zhang: "Secret Yuan, the official will say goodbye first."

Yuan Zhang did not respond, but stared at him for a while and said, "It's not wise for you to do this! It's like you're turning against the Kang Mansion openly."

Prince Kang's mansion is powerful, can he win with such a match?

Lou Yan just smiled and said, "Isn't this a necessary way? But Yuan Xiang, who gave me convenience today, wouldn't he be afraid of Prince Kang's house settled the score?"

Yuan Zhang was calm and composed: "I rely on the law to do things, what can I do?"

Lou Yan looked at him carefully for a moment, and finally lowered his body: "Thank you, Prime Minister Yuan, please say goodbye."

After he left, Yuan Zhang sat for a moment, let out a breath, and said quietly: "I really don't want to tread this muddy water, why..."

He shook his head, packed up the documents and seals, and went to the yamen.

...

Xiao Da’s case was settled very quickly.

A glass of poisoned wine ended his life.

On the day of the execution, Lou Yan went to see him off.

He said: "For the sake of the relationship between the monarch and the subject in recent years, Your Majesty will leave you with decent attitude."

Xiao Da looked at the glass of poisonous wine, but smiled: "It's not that I'm decent, but that I'm afraid of being able to make a change? If it's a punishment, there will be too many variables in half a year after autumn."

Lou Yan smiled but said nothing.

In fact, today's punishment is a lynching.

The imperial edict wrote about the killing and decree.

Everyone understands this little trick.

Xiao Da picked up the glass of poisonous wine, his hands trembled a little.

He asked, "What you promised me will not change your mind, right?"

Lou Yan said: "The sin is not as good as the family, as Your Majesty said in person."

Xiao Da nodded and became bored.

The poison was not so fast, so Lou Yan chatted with him.

"When I was young, my family was very poor and often couldn't eat. I grew up to ten years old. I couldn't stand it hungry, so I went to the city. At first, I worked hard on the docks, moving a piece of goods and a penny, and I barely got full. There were often hooligans and gangsters on the docks, and they always had fights. Hey! I was really talented in fighting, and gradually I had a few brothers."

"At the age of seventeen, I can't afford to marry. My brothers gritted their teeth and joined the army. At the beginning, it was really painful, you, a young man, could not imagine it, but fortunately, we had rewards for merit, so we fought for the meritorious service. More and more battles were fought, and my brothers gradually disappeared..."

"I married my wife later. You know that my wife was raised by a merchant. She was beautiful, able to play the piano and dance, and able to serve others. She was just unaware. I didn't understand at that time, and I sent my wife to my house and married happily. Later I understood, but seeing that she was devoted to me and gave birth to a son for me, I couldn't bear to part with me, so I just wanted to make peace."

"I was very happy when my son was born. At that time, I swear that I would never let him live such a hard life as me. Then I went to seek wealth and then joined the Kang Prince's Mansion. In the past ten years, I have never thought about whether it is right or not. No one has taught me those principles. I only started to learn by recognizing words after becoming a general."

"Now I'm going to die, I'm just a son, and I'm still stupid. Thinking about it, I still haven't accumulated good deeds?"

Lou Yan said lightly: "Everyone has his own destiny. Since there is right and wrong, there is cause and effect."

Xiao Da smiled: "Listen, I can't say such literary words."

His abdominal cramps gradually made him sweat, but he still wanted to speak: "Do you want to ruin Prince Kang's Mansion?"

Lou Yan looked at him and said nothing.

Xiao Da still wanted to ask: "Why? What Your Majesty can give you, and the Crown Prince can give you too!"

Lou Yan shook his head: "No, they can't give it to me."

Xiao Da looked at his eyes and seemed to understand a little, but he seemed to not understand it.

"For... the first emperor, or the first prince?"

"It's Wuya Hai Pavilion." Lou Yan said, "It's your dream to get promoted and get rich and win a wife and son, and Wuya Hai Pavilion is my dream."

Xiao Da laughed slowly, and while laughing, blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth.

"It's so good!" he said, "Hope..."

He could no longer say what happened next, blood poured out of his mouth, his body slowly fell down, twitched for a while, and finally stopped moving.

The prison guard stepped forward, tried his breath and heartbeat, and reported: "The prisoner is dead."

Lou Yan nodded and said, "Let the Xiao family collect the body."

"yes."

He was out of the prison.

The sun is fierce, and it is shining with warm light.

Lou Yan sorted out his sleeves and stretched out his hand.

These hands are still so smooth and clean, as if they have never touched any blood.

The first one.
