Don't Ask Where People Go After Time Travel

Chapter 429 Questioning
On the twenty-eighth day, the weather was fine.Fang Zilan was standing in the courtyard of the government office basking in the sun. She raised her head and squinted her eyes, looking quite like a satisfied cat.

The panic on the street came at this time. She heard someone shouting "Killer" from a distance, and subconsciously looked back. Yang Zhiqing in the room was sitting in front of the case, carefully reviewing the official documents. .

Hearing the noise, Yang Zhiqing stood up and walked out, asking, "Master Fang, what happened?"

"I don't know, I'll go take a look." Fang Zilan called Cao Hong to look at Yang Zhiqing, and then walked out of the mansion, grabbed one from the panicked crowd, and asked what happened.

The person caught by her was at a loss and couldn't even speak clearly. She vaguely understood that there was a murder case at the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and an adult died in front of the door when he entered and exited.

No wonder there was such a big commotion, Fang Zilan's heart sank, killing people in full view, is Ji Ningtian crazy?Just the Ministry of Justice...

Before she could think about it, Yang Zhiqing had already walked to her side to ask about the situation, and Cao Hong who followed was also curious.

After listening to Fang Zilan's words, Cao Hong frowned and said, "The Ministry of Punishment has always been heavily guarded. How could there be such a thing as an official dying in front of the door?"

"Master Fang, can you find out who died?" Yang Zhiqing looked anxious, Fang Zilan was stunned, "Why..."

"Master Wu was ordered to amend the law, and it was the Ministry of Punishment that went!" Yang Zhiqing raised his voice, and Fang Zilan woke up instantly as if a basin of cold water poured down his head.

This is Ji Ningtian's real goal.

Fang Zilan felt chills in her hands and feet, and subconsciously ran out. Even though Cao Hong shouted behind her, she couldn't hear a word.

The entrance to the criminal department has long been surrounded by guards and people from Jingzhao Yin's mansion, and it is tightly blocked.When Fang Zilan arrived, she forced her way in with the token of the public secretary in her hand.

The moment Fang Zilan saw the person lying on the ground clearly, Fang Zilan clenched his hands hidden in his sleeves into fists, his whole body was full of chilling intent, which made the guard beside him take a step back involuntarily.

"Master Fang..." As soon as Qian Qianfu, the head of the Ministry of Punishment opened his mouth, Fang Zilan said, "Why did Lord Wu leave the Ministry of Punishment at this hour?"

"This..." Qian Qian hesitated for a while before saying, "I think Mr. Pei has something to call..."

"Lord Pei Poming?" Fang Zilan interrupted Qian Qian's words in a cold voice, and he nodded hastily, "Exactly."

Fang Zilan looked even colder, "Master Pei is not in the Ministry of Punishment, where is he?"

"Master Pei has been unwell recently, and he is on leave at the residence." Qian Qian was sweating on his forehead, Fang Zilan cast a sideways glance at him, and said, "Why are you talking to me? Where is the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment?"

"Master Shangshu went to the Ministry of Officials to look for Master Zhuge, and he handed over to the subordinate officials." Qian Qian's voice trembled imperceptibly, and Fang Zilan stared at him and said, "Master Wu was transferred from the government office under my control." Those from the Ministry of Punishment are now dying here, I want an explanation, isn’t it too much?”

"Not too much." Qian Qian responded quickly, and Fang Zilan nodded slightly, "Okay, since that's the case, if your Ministry of Punishment cannot give me an explanation within three days, I will go to the imperial court to ask for it."

"Lord Fang, three days is too tight, isn't it?" Before Qian Qian finished speaking, Fang Zilan turned around and left, leaving him standing where he was, dejected.

As the head of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Qian Qian knew that this matter was no small matter.In just a few months, there have been several homicide cases in the capital, and the dead were all dignitaries, but Jing Zhaoyin's mansion couldn't find anything, and their Ministry of Punishment was even more silent.

Who ever thought that the murderer would not come to the door as long as he kept his law and order.Right now, the murderer not only came to the judicial office of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, but also killed an official of the Ministry of Criminal Justice in broad daylight. Once the news spreads...

Qian Qian didn't dare to think about it, he and Zou Hongqi, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, both belonged to the Dugu faction, and were in the same heart as the Queen Mother.It stands to reason that the Dugu family has never been a coward in the west, but the capital is comfortable after all, and there is always a little fear when things come to an end.

What's more, Fang Zilan, Duke of Yue on one side, and Pei Juanqing's younger brother on the other, can't afford to offend either side.The Jingzhaoyin Mansion is also unreliable, after all, it can only be borne by the Ministry of Punishment.

Qian Qian sighed for a long time, he had already felt Fang Zilan's coercion just now, if she couldn't give her a satisfactory statement after three days, she was afraid that the Criminal Department would be demolished by her.

But on the side of Duke Pei Juanqing, if he openly went to Pei Manor to ask Pei Poming for questioning, would he still be able to come out?
Thinking about this, Qian Qian looked at the people in Jingzhao Yin's mansion next to him, and saw the same fear on their faces.He felt more and more headaches, if their Ministry of Punishments were arguing with Jing Zhao Yin's Mansion, let alone three days, even thirty days, they might not be able to come up with an explanation.

However, what Qian Qian didn't know was that Fang Zilan had already done it for them to interrogate Pei Poming when he and the people in Jingzhao Yin's Mansion were hesitating.

Fang Zilan leaped over the courtyard wall of Pei's house lightly and skillfully, without disturbing anyone.She groped for less than a cup of tea, and found Pei Poming's place.

Pei Poming paced back and forth in the room, seeming very restless.Fang Zilan observed for a while, and after confirming that there was no one else in the room, she pushed the door open and entered.

Seeing someone breaking in, Pei Poming covered his mouth before he could shout. Fang Zilan, who was close at hand, said softly, "Master Pei, you recovered from your illness so quickly."

Pei Po hummed a few times, Fang Zilan slowly put down his hand, and he became angry from embarrassment: "Master Fang, what are you doing?"

"What are you doing?" Fang Zilan's lips curled into a playful smile, but there was no smile in his eyes, "I came all the way, and I heard that Mr. Pei was drinking in the flower building today, and he was very happy. Who knows that the servant of Pei's mansion said that Mr. Pei was sick Heavy, I haven't stayed in the whole day. I always like to get to the bottom of the matter, since the servant of Pei's mansion doesn't allow me to visit, then I can only do this, and I hope Mr. Pei will not blame you."

"You..." Pei Poming's eyes widened, and he was too choked to speak.

Fang Zilan smiled, "Master Pei should know why I came here, I don't know if you have anything to say?"

"I don't know, and I have nothing to say." Pei Poming was furious, Fang Zilan grabbed him by the collar, and said word by word: "The people in the Ministry of Punishment told me that Mr. Wu was summoned by Mr. Pei before he left the Ministry of Punishment. , died in front of the door."

"Nonsense!" Pei Po yelled, but her tone was out of character, "I didn't..."

Fang Zilan exerted all her strength, "When I asked Mr. Pei, he was so frightened that if he were to be interrogated by the Ministry of Criminal Justice, would he be able to endure it?"

Pei Poming's face was full of horror, and he watched helplessly as his collar was slightly torn.Fang Zilan let go of him, and patted him on the shoulder lightly, "I'm done asking. I'm really sorry for ruining one of Mr. Pei's clothes."

After she finished speaking, she turned her head and left. Pei Poming couldn't help but said: "Master Fang, Wu Sheng's death really has nothing to do with me. With his temper, he might offend someone..."

"So Master Pei thinks he deserves to die?" Fang Zilan turned her head, the cold and cruel eyes in her eyes made Pei Poming stop suddenly.

However, Fang Zilan had no intention of going, as if waiting for an answer.After a while, Pei Poming said softly, "I don't know."

"Master Pei amends the law. He should know that even if there are people who deserve to die in this world, they should be punished by the law." Fang Zilan said in a deep voice: "Killing is killing, and no sophistry can cover up the fact that he committed a crime."

"But..." Pei Poming hesitated to speak, Fang Zilan snorted coldly, "If Mr. Pei wants to protect the murderer, why not think about it if you are the one who dies today?"

　A murderer should have the consciousness of being killed, and never sympathize with the murderer.

　　From this point of view, Fang Zilan is conscious.
