Nangong Qianrou shook her head.

"No."

Wei Yuan remained calm and simply took a sip of tea.

Yang Yan frowned.

"No?!"

His tone was somewhat surprised.

Yang Yan glanced at Su Nan, his expression seemingly disdainful.

This man, accompanied by a night watchman with a gong, didn't even dare to snatch someone from the Ministry of Justice?!

Coward.

Looking at Yang Yan's expression, Nangong Qianrou knew that the latter had misunderstood.

So she said, "There's no need. Those people are no longer useful. It's fine to leave them to the Ministry of Justice."

"Oh?" Yang Yan raised an eyebrow slightly.

Immediately.

Nangong Qianrou then recounted their journey to the Ministry of Justice.

First, it was mentioned that soldiers from the Ministry of Justice blocked the road, and Nangong Qianrou, under orders from Su Nan, killed the general.

Nangong Qianrou looked at Wei Yuan, her eyes showing a rare hint of tenderness.

“Godfather, but you told me to listen to him.”

"This is not my fault."

Yang Yan was shocked upon hearing this and looked at Su Nan again.

Murder in front of the Ministry of Justice?!

Moreover, the one killed was a general who held an official position!

Good lad, what courage!

Yang Yan's eyes lit up!

It seems I underestimated people.

Wei Yuan remained unmoved and said calmly, "When it's time to make a move, one must make a move."

"Kill one to warn a hundred."

"There will be fewer obstacles in the future, and less killing."

"However, Minister Sun of the Ministry of Justice will not let this go so easily."

Yang Yan was unaware of Su Nan's temperament, but Wei Yuan was.

This person acts as he pleases, unrestrained by rules and laws.

Zhou Li was standing in the courtyard of the Ministry of Justice that day, and he was still killed by this person with a single sword!

The night watchman has yet to uncover any clues.

Nangong Qianrou breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Wei Yuan showed no sign of blaming her.

It seems that her godfather also supports her taking action.

"My godfather is wise."

"Upon learning that we had killed a general and stormed the Ministry of Justice, Minister Sun and other officials of the Ministry of Justice were furious..."

Nangong Qianrou silently turned her head to look at Su Nan, and the previous scene involuntarily surfaced in her mind.

In particular, Su Nan drew his sword and glared at the powerful officials in the council hall.

That scene left an indelible mark on Nangong Qianrou's memory!

Behead first and report later, imperial authority has granted!

Let alone killing a general, even beheading you, Minister Sun, here would be within my rights!

These two sentences were truly thought-provoking and unforgettable.

Nangong Qianrou then recounted what happened next in the council hall.

After listening to Nangong Qianrou's story, Yang Yan's stiff face showed a blank expression.

This southern Jiangsu region... is so domineering!

Even if he were her adoptive father, he wouldn't dare say he wanted to kill the current Minister of Justice right there in the Ministry of Justice!

Upon hearing this, Wei Yuan's eyes lit up with excitement.

He looked at Su Nan beside him and laughed, "You're certainly quite domineering."

Wei Yuan's gaze towards Su Nan softened considerably, no longer as sharp as before.

What a fearless young man!

If this person can wholeheartedly serve the people, he will surely be a breath of fresh air in the court after entering it, rectifying the situation and putting order to the court!

Although Nangong Qianrou was merely the narrator, she could not hide her inner turmoil.

The scene that unfolded inside the council chamber was truly shocking.

Even a powerful minister like Sun dared not speak out against Su Nan!

It's rare to see this Minister of Justice suffer a setback!

"And then what does this have to do with you not bringing anyone back?" Yang Yan suppressed his shock and asked curiously.

Then Nangong Qianrou recounted what happened in the council hall afterwards.

However, Nangong Qianrou's words were also vague.

Because she didn't know much about the case of the demons devouring people in Dahuangshan and the case of the missing flag officer of the Jinwu Guard.

In the watchman's office, ten gong players each had their own duties, with Nangong Qianrou in charge of intelligence gathering and interrogation.

"The case of the demons devouring people in Mount Huangshan, and the case of the missing junior officer of the Imperial Guard?"

Yang Yan's eyes widened slightly.

Nangong Qianrou was unaware of the details, but he knew them all.

Because those two cases were handled by his men!

"These two cases are actually related to the Sangbo bombing?"

Everyone turned to look at Su Nan sitting at the table.

Since returning to the teahouse, Su Nan hasn't uttered a single word.

"Yes."

Seeing that Wei Yuan and the others were all looking at him, Su Nan nodded.

He then recounted his analysis, which was essentially consistent with what Lü Qing had told Minister Sun and others.

After he finished his analysis, the basic outline of the Sangbo bombing case was clear.

The demon race mined saltpeter in the Great Wilderness Mountain, made gunpowder, and then used the Golden Guard to secretly deliver the gunpowder to the Yongzhen Mountain and River Temple!

Yang Yan was shocked.

Su Nan was actually able to find clues from those files!

Moreover, he was able to piece these seemingly scattered clues together.

This person... is terrifying.

Apart from his adoptive father Wei Yuan, Yang Yan never admired anyone else in his life.

However, even he had to admit that Su Nan was impressive!

Wei Yuan never expressed any opinion.

But his eyes clearly showed his...admiration for Su Nan.

"As long as we can capture Zhou Chixiong, the Sangbo bombing case can be solved!"

Yang Yan clenched his fists, his eyes showing a hint of excitement.

Unexpectedly, the key to solving the Sangbo bombing case, which had been a headache for his godfather, was found in just half a day!

however.

Su Nan, however, poured cold water on Yang Yan's enthusiasm.

"not that simple."

“Zhou Chixiong will not sit idly by and wait for his death. He will definitely flee Kyoto as soon as the incident occurs.”

"So the probability of catching Zhou Chixiong now is very low."

Su Nan had just finished speaking.

Yinluo Li Yuchun hurriedly entered the tea room. (Group 39, Six Like Neighbors)

"I have met with Wei Gong, Yang Jinluo, Nangong Jinluo, and... Su, the organizer."

Yang Yan glanced at Su Nan and secretly thought to himself that something was wrong.

Could it be that Su Nan was right again?

Zhou Chixiong has already fled the capital!

Yang Yan looked at Li Yuchun and immediately asked, "Has Zhou Chixiong been captured?"

Li Yuchun shook his head with a troubled expression and said, "When we went to the Zhou residence, it was already deserted."

Yang Yan and Nangong Qianrou's expressions immediately darkened!

Zhou Chixiong... has indeed escaped!

Or it could be an even worse outcome.

That means Zhou Chixiong has been murdered to silence him by the person behind the scenes.
