At dusk, the incident of the Yuhua Bridge in the Confucian Temple being bombed was circulating.

Just when Ma Shichang, the Minister of Justice and Liu Wenchen, the governor of Changdan, were at a loss, someone came from the head.

Not only did Ma Shichang and Liu Wenchen know him, but Zhao Yan also knew him.

This person's surname is Qiu and his name is Tong. He is a member of the Ministry of Personnel. When he was dealing with Cui Wanshan, the county magistrate of Jicheng County, Qingzhou, Qiu Tong quickly investigated and made great contributions. Zhao Yan also remembered this person in his heart and felt that it was worthy of use.

Ma Shichang and Liu Wenchen both looked confused and couldn't figure out what Qiu Tong was doing if he had nothing to do. Even a smart adult could not do such a childish thing.

Just as the two were about to report to Zhao Yan, Qiu Tong's father Qiu Chulin suddenly came, saying that he had blown it with firecrackers and had nothing to do with his son Qiu Tong.

Qiu Tong's father is currently an editor of Zhaowenguan. He has no real power and is usually known for his elegance. Not to mention blowing up bridges, no one has ever seen him speak loudly in Zhaowenguan.

About half a quarter of an hour later, Qiu Tong's grandfather Qiu Jiaquan also came. The old man was over 70 years old, but his health was still strong. He said at the top of his voice that he had blown up the Yuhuaqiao, and asked Ma Shichang and Liu Wenchen to let the other two be released immediately.

Because of this, Zhao Yan personally inquired about it. Ma Shichang and Liu Wenchen immediately began to interrogate, but unexpectedly, the three of them all said that they did it themselves and had nothing to do with others.

Ma Shichang and Liu Wenchen were stunned. If it was a serious crime, it would be reasonable for father and son to replace each other, but they did not hurt anyone after blowing up the fish bridge. Although a group of scholars asked for heavy punishment, even if they were punished more severely, at most, it would be deducted Qiu Tong's salary for two years, which was not a big deal at all.

This family three generations compete for such punishment, which seems a bit inexplicable.

The two of them didn't know what to do, so they could only detain the three of them at the same time and report to Zhao Yan.

At this moment, Zhao Yangang sent Lu Nianwei back to Wanbaolou. When he heard the three generations of Qiu Tong's family rushing to say that it was his own actions, he was also surprised and immediately came to Changdan Prefecture Office to review it himself.

When Qiu Tong and his grandson learned that the current emperor was going to examine him personally, they were all a little surprised, and then they came to the lobby of the government office together.

The three of them were about to kneel down and kowtow, when Zhao Yan waved his hand and said, "There are three generations of the Qiu family, both of which have official positions. You don't have to kneel down and speak, stand and talk!"

The three of them had to bow to Zhao Yan.

Zhao Yan smiled and said, "The blown up by the fishing bridge is not a big deal. No matter who blows it up, once it is found out, I will ask him to spend money to rebuild the fishing bridge and apologize. It is not a big crime. Why do you rush to confess? And this kind of thing doesn't look like what the three of you did?"

When the three of them heard this, they immediately didn't know how to reply!

Zhao Yan said again: "Fried fish into bridges is not a big deal, but deceiving the king is a serious crime. What I want to know is, what do you use to blow the fish into bridges?"

Qiu Tong and the other two knelt on the ground in an instant, and Qiu Tong even leaned on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, my grandparents and grandchildren, begged to report to you alone."

Zhao Yan looked at Ma Shichang and Liu Wenchen standing beside him, waved his hands at them, and signaled them to go out first.

The two of them retreated out of the lobby with confusion and closed the door.
