The middle-aged man had already changed into his prison uniform. He knelt on the ground, wearing shackles, and said calmly and firmly, "Yes, my name is Shen Aonan."

Zhao Han had doubts before that His Royal Highness King Hui was going so hard just to get revenge on Zhao Nanxing, but now he understands everything.

The Huai'an Mansion is where the Governor's Office of the Water Transport is located, and the Shen family and the Li family are related by marriage for several generations. More importantly, the Shen family is the most powerful and powerful in the North-South Water Transport.It is said that the Shen family alone has nearly a hundred ships of all sizes, not to mention those that can be directly and indirectly affected.

Zhao Han understood, so he cut to the chase and said, "Well, Your Highness asked me to protect your life. Don't worry, I will find a death row prisoner to replace you."

Shen Aonan shook his head slightly, and said: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness, I will beg for death next time, and I hope it will come true."

Zhao Han looked at him, thought for a while, then picked up his pen and said, "Then tell the story first, why did you poison the two of them and tell me in detail."

Shen Aonan had already thought about all the arguments, and he opened his mouth and said, "I am a member of Huai'an Prefecture. The Shen family's father separated from the family and operates water transportation for a living..."

Zhao Han shook his head secretly while writing.They are all bad dramas that have been performed countless times. The downcast branch of the family is jealous of the other wealthy branch, and joins forces with outsiders to seize the family property.

And this Shen Aonan is the protagonist, but it is more miserable, most of the family property and his wife and children are gone, and he has been incognito for many years, just for revenge.

Shen Aonan spoke dryly, and finally looked at the box at Zhao Han's feet, and said: "In the box are the account books I collected between Shen Aodong and the Zhao family, the official family, and the Li family, as well as various The testimonies of the wharf, the shopkeeper, and the crew are enough to convict Shen Aodong to death."

Zhao Han nodded slightly. This Shen Aonan probably really hated him, otherwise he wouldn't have spent so much effort collecting evidence.But if His Royal Highness Hui Wang hadn't been involved, I'm afraid that would be the case, and Shen Aodong, who has relations with the Zhao family officials, would not be defeated.

After Zhao Han finished writing, he asked Shen Aonan to sign and sign, and said: "Okay, now you will stay here and wait for the hearing. What to say and what not to say, don't I need to teach you?"

Shen Aonan had already put his mind to it, nodded and said: "Don't worry, my lord, I know what's going on in my heart."

Zhao Han glanced at him again, turned around and walked out with the testimony.

In the lobby, Guan Yingzhen was still furious, staring at Shen Yan and said: "Lord Shen, how long are you going to delay? If you can't go to Shuntian Mansion for a trial, then let's go to the emperor to file a lawsuit!"

Zhao Nanxing sat on the side with a majestic expression and a calm expression.

He knew something about that grandson, he was a foolish bastard, he didn't care at first, but he didn't expect that this time he actually poisoned the son of Ying Zhen, the leader of the Chu Party, and the witness was his Donglin descendant, Qian Qianyi!

He didn't care about these, the Chu party was already dying under his attack, but he smelled something different from it.

Chapter 112 Transfer to the Ministry of Punishment

Zhao Han walked to the side door, saw Shen Yan doing Tai Chi with Zhao Nanxing and Guan Yingzhen, pondered, and walked out.

"My lord." He raised his hand to Shen Yan.

When Shen Yan heard this, he turned his head abruptly, and his eyes repeatedly signaled.

Guan Yingzhen pulled Shen Yan away, stared straight at Zhao Han and said, "How is it? Is there any progress?"

Zhao Nanxing raised his head, and looked at Zhao Han calmly and dignifiedly.

Zhao Han gave Shen Yan a reassuring look, raised his hand to Guan Yingzhen and Zhao Nanxing and said, "My lords, there has been a new change in the case. Shuntian Mansion will immediately seal the file and transfer it to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for trial."

Guan Yingzhen's face changed, he glanced at Zhao Nanxing, and said angrily: "But there are Donglin thieves plotting to kill my son on purpose?"

Zhao Nanxing also stood up at this moment, his eyes were calm and stern.

Zhao Han hesitated for a while, and said: "What I can say is that there are other secrets in this case. Although the two sons were indeed poisoned, the ingredients of the poison are the same and they were obtained from the same person. This person has surrendered himself. The lower officials hastily tried it, but due to the seriousness of the case, which exceeded the authority of the Shuntian Mansion, the file had to be sealed and transferred to the Ministry of Punishment."

Shen Yan listened from the side, his eyes wide open, and he nodded secretly at Zhao Han.

He can't afford to offend either the Taichang Temple or the Ministry of Officials. The best thing is to push this case out.

Listening to Zhao Han's words, Guan Yingzhen's expression became more fierce, and he said, "Who is involved? Isn't one Zhao Nanxing enough?"

After all, Zhao Han's position is still a little lower, and he always feels a little guilty when facing these two, Shen Yan also quickly understood, walked over and said in an official tone: "My lord, Shuntian Mansion operates according to the law, if the two adults need to know more , you can go to the Ministry of Punishments, the lower officials have no right to answer for you."

When Guan Yingzhen heard Shen Yan's rude words of driving him away, he immediately became furious: "You..."

However, Zhao Nanxing frowned. Having experienced his career, he felt that things were becoming more and more difficult. The net was getting tighter and tighter, and his true fangs would soon be exposed.

Thinking of Wang Ji, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, he groaned, turned around and walked directly outside.

Seeing Zhao Nanxing leaving, Guan Yingzhen snorted coldly: "Hmph, I'm going to the Ministry of Punishment right now. If you delay on purpose, just wait for my impeachment note!"

Shen Yan's expression was indifferent, and he didn't even send it off.He is the governor of Shuntian Prefecture, and he is also in the court class. Although he doesn't want to offend anyone, if someone really bullies him, he is not without the strength to fight back.

Zhao Han walked over and said beside him: "My lord, this case involves a lot, we'd better not get involved too much."

Shen Yan didn't know the specific situation yet, so he frowned and said, "What's going on?"

Zhao Han hesitated for a moment, and said, "My lord, this case also involves the Shen family in Huai'an Mansion, the Shen family who is related to Li Sancai by marriage."

Shen Yan immediately understood that the case between the Shen family and Li Sancai, Li Sancai and Zhao Nanxing, Zhao Nanxing and the Donglin Party ultimately pointed to the Donglin Party.

"Okay, let's ignore this case and send the file to the criminal department immediately. This case has nothing to do with us." Shen Yan said.

Zhao Han thought about Zhu Xu's words to keep Shen Aonan alive, glanced at Shen Yan's side face, and said in a deep voice, "My lord, this case is not easy, and I'm afraid it will still be tried by the three divisions in the end, and we still won't be able to hide at that time, how about, Withhold part of the evidence and people, and then there will be chips to shirk with the Ministry of Punishment, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and Dali Temple."

Shen Yan turned his head to look at Zhao Han. He sensed something strange from Zhao Han's eager actions on this matter, thoughtfully, and said, "Alright, I'm going to the suburbs later. You are in charge of everything in the yamen."

Zhao Han couldn't tell that Shen Yan was going to push all the responsibilities to him, but he was not afraid now, nodded and said, "It's my lord."

Shen Yan was even more surprised. He took a deep look at Zhao Han, turned around and walked back to the backyard by the side door.

Now that Zhao Han has full power, he is secretly happy. He thinks he already knows the overall plan of His Royal Highness King Hui, and he is thinking about how to make it better for His Highness.

Zhao Nanxing came to the Ministry of Justice in a sedan chair, and went straight to the backyard to meet Wang Ji, but Guan Yingzhen was stopped in the lobby.

"Why, I don't deserve to see him, Wang Weili!" Guan Yingzhen's face was ashen, and he yelled at the head of the criminal department who received him.

Wang Ji, whose word is only rationale.

The head of the criminal department is a thin monkey, he said with a smile: "My lord, if you have anything to say, you can tell the next official, and the next official will convey it on your behalf. Our lord is busy now..."

"What are you busy with!" Guan Yingzhen's voice was like thunder, shaking the hall of the Ministry of Punishment: "He, Zhao Nanxing, can get in, but this officer can't. Your Ministry of Punishment will also see when the ranks come in and out!"

The principal could only deal with it with an apologetic smile, this Taichang Temple Shaoqing is the leader of the Chu Party, Zhao Nanxing has a headache, they can't afford it.Guan Yingzhen couldn't really break in, he could only sit there.

Zhao Nanxing and Wang Ji were sitting opposite each other in a room. After listening to Zhao Nanxing's words, Wang Ji also frowned.

Wang Ji looked thin and looked like he was in his early fifties. He pondered for a while and said, "From what Shuntian Mansion said, there is probably something hidden about this matter. Only when they send the file to me can I know the details."

Zhao Nanxing nodded, and said to the Donglin junior with a serious expression: "At first, I was worried that they were targeting Brother Sancai. After some operations, the matter should have calmed down, but judging from today's events, they still Once you have prepared your backhand, you won’t give up easily.”

Wang Ji listened to Zhao Nanxing's words, his heart moved, and he said quickly: "Speaking of this, earlier, the Shuntian Mansion came to the clerk, accusing the Ministry of Punishment of overstepping its authority in disposing of the mysterious workshop in the east of the city, and asked us to immediately withdraw the manpower. , the Ministry of Household Affairs, and the Ministry of Industry are also somewhat dissatisfied, at the most tonight I have to get people to withdraw, otherwise I will have to make a fuss in the court meeting."

Zhao Nanxing's resolute face was suddenly full of anger, he slapped the table and said in a cold voice: "This bunch of stupid officials, they are stalking dogs all day long, they have no intention of serving the country, they just make things difficult for us, hate it!"

Wang Jimoran, when Gu Xiancheng gave lectures in Donglin, he could not understand the factionalism in the Wanli Dynasty, but he did not expect that they are also deeply involved in it now, unable to extricate themselves.

Not long after, the guards of Shuntian Mansion sent the sealed dossier to the Ministry of Punishment, and it soon arrived at Wang Ji's desk.
