Qiu Jungao shouted sternly: "Lang Wuxu, you are so brave. This is the lobby of the Ministry of Justice. As the imperial court official, you are so arrogant in front of the governor and the auxiliary state. Do you want to rebel?" He stretched out his hand and "bring the evidence!"

At this time, a servant had already taken the yellow silk from Xiao Yanqiu and presented it to Qiu Jungao. Qiu Jungao was about to open it, but immediately stopped, got down from above, walked to the prince's side, and presented the yellow silk with both hands.

The prince was calm and calm, holding the yellow silk in one hand and slowly opened it. Soon everyone around the prince saw that among the yellow silk was a jade pendant, extremely exquisite and extraordinary at first glance.

The prince held it in his hand, looked carefully for a few seconds, and his expression quickly became serious. He looked up at the King of Qi, thinking about it, actually covered the yellow silk and said, "This is not a big deal, it is not a proof!"

The King of Qi had already seen that what appeared in the yellow silk was suddenly his own jade pendant.

This jade pendant is extraordinary and is an authentic royal property. Whenever the emperor gives birth to a child, he will give him many rewards immediately, and the most important of them is the royal jade pendant.

People in the Central Plains regard jade as beauty. Since ancient times to the present, beautiful jade symbolizes purity. Moreover, in the hearts of people in the Central Plains, jade can ward off evil spirits and is a superior thing. However, jade is indispensable in the families of all dignitaries.

There are twenty-four prisons in the palace, each performing its own duties. Among them, the general prisons are specially made of gold, jade, pearls, jade, rhinoceros treasure vessels for the palace. They are all first-class craftsmen, and their production craftsmanship also represents the highest level.

When a prince is born, he must prepare a jade pendant for the prison. It is exquisitely made and given to the newborn prince by the emperor. This jade pendant, whether in its shape, size, style and weight, must be recorded in the file like other vessels in the palace. In fact, the things produced by the prison are recorded, and the ins and outs are recorded.

The King of Qi knew very well that the appearance of this jade pendant meant that he had a complete failure. At this time, his hands and feet were cold.

"Responsible for the State, this is the evidence." The prince originally wanted to put away the jade pendant, but Qiu Jungao was bold and immediately stopped him. "Responsible for the State, forgive the official for taking the liberty. This is the token of instructing people behind the scenes. It is already a testimony. According to the rules of the Ministry of Justice, further investigation and verification of this evidence must be carried out. Not to mention a jade pendant, or a needle, we must investigate the whole story."

The prince frowned and said lightly: "I have said that this is not a proof..."

"Responsible for the State!" Qiu Jungao suddenly knelt down on the ground and raised his hands, "The subordinate official held the Ministry of Justice, everything must be carried out according to the constitution, and he must not be negligent. The subordinate official begged the supervisor to return the evidence!"

Everyone was a little surprised and thought to himself that he had clearly taken out the evidence instructed by the person behind the scenes and why he had to put it away. He also said that this was not evidence, but Qiu Jungao was righteous and seemed not afraid of offending the prince, but also wanted to get the evidence to investigate.

The prince frowned and Qiu Jungao said again: "The State Supervisor, if the investigation is conducted, this jade pendant is not a proof. The official should apologize to the State Supervisor. However, the result is not yet known. This jade pendant is related to the entire case, so we must investigate it!"

Lang Wuxu was pressed to the ground and shouted: "Slander, it's all slander. These actors are talking nonsense, they are slandering... I don't know them..."

Qiu Jungao still knelt on the ground, turned his head and sneered: "If you don't know them, why would you say that things were stolen by them? If this jade pendant was not stolen from you, why are you so excited that you dare to snatch it in court?"

His two sentences were sonorous and powerful, and no one present doubted them. They all felt that Lang Wuxu must have known these actors. The jade pendant must have been stolen from Lang Wuxu by Duan Xiaolou and others.

Lang Wuxu tried every means to cover up, but such clumsy cover up further proved that the matter was related to him.

The prince hesitated for a moment, and saw that Qiu Jungao's eyes were firm, and sighed, handed the yellow silk to Qiu Jungao. Qiu Jungao took it, took it in his hand, looked carefully, and immediately said: "This is... this is something in the palace!"

Of course, the objects in the palace are different from those outside. The most important thing is that most of the utensils in the palace are engraved with marks, indicating that they are from the utensils. Each utensil made by the utensils will be engraved with the utensils as unique marks on it to distinguish objects inside and outside the utensils, so as to prevent outsiders from making false and real.

This royal jade pendant naturally left the mark of being the general as a prisoner, so Qiu Jungao recognized at a glance that the jade pendant came from being the general as a prisoner, and only the prince could possess this type of jade pendant.

Duan Xiaolou had already shouted: "Sir, it is because of this that we believe Lord Lang's words. There are noble people in the palace who pay us money to do things, and we... of course we are ordered to do things...!"

"Slander..." Lang Wuxu still shouted: "It's all slander..."

The King of Qi was sitting dejectedly on the chair, his whole body was weak. At this moment, he felt regretful, not regretting that he wanted to overthrow Qiu Jungao, but that he was entrusted with him.

He thought Lang Wuxu was a shrewd man, and it was because of this that he handed over the jade pendant to Lang Wuxu to win the trust of the so-called "Chen Guo and his wife", but he never expected that the jade pendant would fall into the hands of several actors.

He regretted it at this moment, thinking that he had made a rash mistake and handed over the jade pendant to Lang Wuxu. He was so stupid that he wanted to slap himself a few times at this moment. Now the jade pendant has become a fatal evidence, and it is easy to find out that the owner of the jade pendant is him.

When Lang Wuxu entered the hall, the King of Qi was still hopeful, thinking that Lang Wuxu was eloquent and might not be able to clear away the implicit, but he made fatal mistakes in the next sentence. Even if King of Qi was young, he knew that the situation was hopeless. Qiu Jungao could not give up after seizing such an opportunity.

"Mr. Lang, this jade pendant belongs to you, so you don't have to defend yourself." Qiu Jungao walked to Lang Wuxu's side and looked down on his face. "I asked you, who is the owner of this jade pendant? If you come to the real world, I may be able to do it with ease."

"Qu Jungao, you're talking nonsense. This jade pendant has nothing to do with me." Lang Wuxu was still stubborn.

"Use torture!" Qiu Jungao snorted coldly and ordered.

Several yamen members pressed him firmly to the ground, and two officers carrying wooden sticks came forward. Without saying a word, they waved and beat him. Lang Wuxu screamed a few times, and was still stubborn: "You... you abused lynching, Qiu Jungao... you abused lynching..."

The prince said lightly: "It was me who asked him to torture him!"

Lang Wuxu had nothing to do with him. After more than a dozen sticks, the King of Qi saw that the collar on Lang Wuxu's butt had been cracked. Lang Wuxu was usually pampered, but after more than a dozen sticks, he was already full of flesh and blood.

Qiu Jungao sneered: "Mr. Lang, you have the ability. Even if you keep going, I have patience. Even if you don't honestly explain, I can still find out the origin of this jade pendant from the general manager. Of course, if you feel uncomfortable with the stick, I can change the punishment, which will always make you feel comfortable."

Lang Wuxu's butt was covered in blood and howling mournfulness. King Qi saw it and felt a little reluctant.

Although Lang Wuxu had done a job, after all, he was doing it for himself. Now he is gritting his teeth and firm, and he has some backbone. But if he continues to fight like this, he will probably cause death.

But the prince calmed down and closed his eyes slightly, and did not say a word.

After hitting it for more than a dozen sticks, Lang Wuxu was already screaming softly, and finally said, "I said, this jade pendant... this jade pendant, they did steal from me."

"Then who owns this jade pendant?"

"I stolen it from Fuguo." Lang Wuxu's voice was weak, "Qu Jungao, you framed Zhongliang and killed so many people. Everyone wanted to kill them quickly. I... I naturally couldn't tolerate you, so I came up with this method to pull you off the stage... I was afraid that I would not be able to win the trust of them, so... so I stolen the jade pendant on Fuguo..."

King Qi changed color slightly.

"Supporting the Kingdom, is this really a thing for the Kingdom?" Qiu Jungao took the jade pendant and turned around and looked at the King of Qi.

The King of Qi looked frightened and said nervously: "I...I don't know either, it's just...it's just my jade pendant...my jade pendant is indeed gone..."

Qiu Jungao nodded and asked Lang Wuxu: "You said that this was all your arrangement, so don't you know that pretending to be Chen Guo and falsely accusing Qiu Fang, the truth will be found out soon. Don't you think the method is too despicable?"

"I was deceived by them too." Lang Wuxu said in a weak voice: "These actors pretended to be people from the Chen family and sued me for wrongdoing. I... I believed their words easily..."

"Lang Wuxu, you are still lying." Qiu Jungao sneered, "Come on, keep fighting!"

"Smack it!"

King Qi saw that Lang Wuxu was covered in blood, and it seemed that he would die in a short while. He was nervous, but when he saw Lang Wuxu being so backbone in order to protect himself, a bloody energy suddenly surged into his heart, suddenly stood up and shouted: "Stop!"

Xing Captain immediately stopped, raised the corners of his eyes and twitched slightly, raised his head and looked at King Qi.

The King of Qi clasped his fists with his hands, looked solemn, took a deep breath, and finally said, "You don't need to continue to interrogate. This is what I mean. These actors have indeed deceived Lang Wuxu. I knew that there was this unjust case, so I handed the jade pendant to Lang Wuxu and let them come to the Ministry of Justice to call for justice." He looked at Qiu Junhao coldly, "Qu Junhao, it was my king who ordered Lang Wuxu to do this, and everything had nothing to do with him."

Lang Wuxu raised his head, his eyes were red, and he cried bitterly: "Prince...!"

The prince stared at the King of Qi, pondered for a moment, and finally asked: "Today, you asked me to come to the Ministry of Justice to inspect the trial, not to investigate the abuse of lynching by Shangshu Qiu, but to let me see someone coming to sue Qiu Fang?"

The King of Qi was filled with blood and thought that this person was doing things alone. At this point, there was nothing to hide. He nodded and said, "Yes, they sued Qiu Fang. Qiu Fang is Qiu Jungao's son. I was worried that Qiu Jungao would be in favor of personal gain, so I asked the supervisor to come and monitor with me."

"In this way, you knew in advance that they would come to complain today?" The prince's voice was still calm: "I have asked you if this matter is related to you. The answer you gave to me is no."

The King of Qi did not speak.

The prince glanced at Lang Wuxu, who was covered in blood, and waved his hand and said, "Please lock Lang Wuxu in the prison. Duan Xiaolou and others falsely accused others and put them in the prison together."

Without saying a word, the servants walked forward like a wolf and a tiger, and instantly dragged Lang Wuxu and others down.

The prince then stared at the King of Qi again and asked, "You said they were wronged again, but the facts proved that they were falsely accusing Qiu Fang... Whether you know their plan or not, you are also involved in false accusing others. Prince. When the national law is like a joke, Yingren, may you not know the consequences?"

The King of Qi opened his mouth and still didn't say anything. At this time, he had nothing to say.

"The prince violates the law, like the common people," the prince said slowly: "He assists the country, and does not distinguish between loyalty and treacherous, and does not distinguish between right and wrong. He uses the prince's respect to instruct others to falsely accuse Qiu Fang. From now on, he will be placed under house arrest in the Qi palace and shall not interfere in court affairs. He will wait for the emperor to return to the capital before he will make a decision."
