There was such a big commotion this time that the emperor even came in person. Important officials in Yicheng rushed over after hearing the news, including Yang Sheng, the captain of Yijun, Liao Ling, the lord of Yicheng, and other middle- and high-level officials.
Of course, there were also some uninformed officials of the Yan Kingdom who arrived at the same time. When they saw that King Yan was restrained, their expressions changed drastically.
But Zhang Jie did not give them a chance to leave, and took advantage of the situation to control these people.
The only regret is that the Crown Prince of Yan and Sun Xun, the Prime Minister of Yan State, did not come. It is said that they went to other places.
When Zu An returned to the courtyard again, everyone looked at him differently.
Although his status as a gold medal embroidered man was scary before, many of the people in the field were big shots from one of the separate factions, so he wasn't that scary.
But now he can invite the emperor to come at every turn. Who is not afraid of him?
I've heard before that the embroidered messenger can invite saints, but the ceremony is quite complicated. How can anyone like him just invite saints?
Moreover, the saint he invited was obviously different from those invited by other messengers of embroidered clothes. According to the information collected from other places, the saint invited by the messenger of embroidered clothes was often just an emotionless shadow, who disappeared after coming out to destroy and attack.
But this time it seems that the person invited is the emperor himself!
"The Eleventh Master is really smart and brave, and he captured the King of Yan so quickly." Zhang Jie raised his thumb, but he couldn't help but begin to flatter him.
Others also complimented him one after another, and even the always aloof Liao Ling looked at him with a slightly strange look.
Zu An was not in a good mood after meeting Zhao Hao just now, and he didn't have the usual feeling of being flattered by these people.
Let Zhang Jie be responsible for putting the relevant people in prison, and he will find an opportunity to meet King Yan alone.
Originally this was not very legal, but now that he has such high prestige, no one dares to question it.
The usually aloof King Yan was now locked by a soul hook, and he looked like a dying old man, sitting quietly in the corner, as if he was about to decay at any moment.
Seeing Zu An come in, King Yan raised his head, with a trace of resentment flashing in his eyes: "Okay, okay, I didn't expect that my eyes would be pecked by geese while I was hunting geese all day long."
The anger value from Zhao Li is +555+555+555...
Zu An said coldly: "From the moment you colluded with the demon clan to plot rebellion, you should have thought of this day."
After he finished speaking, he felt a little weird. He was the regent of the demon clan, the foster father of the little emperor, and the lover of the little demon queen. How could he say that someone else was colluding with the demon clan?
Hey, even though the Little Demon Queen was asked to try her best to block the news related to the Regent, the demon clan is so big, sooner or later the imperial court will know about it.
King Yan snorted. There was no one else here, and he was too lazy to make any unnecessary excuses.
Zu An calmed down and said, "I came here to ask you something. How did you kill the seventh gold medalist?"
King Yan gave him a cold look: "Why, you think the charge of rebellion is not enough, and you want to frame me with another charge?"
Zu An said calmly: "We are all sensible people, does it make sense for you to quibble here?"
"Haha," King Yan sneered, "I thought you were so wise and powerful, but it turns out you always thought that I was the one who killed the seventh gold medalist?"
Zu An's head jumped: "Isn't it?"
"Of course not," King Yan's eyes flashed, as if he got some interesting information from what he just said, and his mood gradually calmed down, "The matter is now over, and I don't need to deny such a trivial matter."
Zu An frowned. Indeed, compared with charges such as liaison with the demon clan and intent to rebel, murdering the seventh gold medalist was child's play.
But he couldn't tell for sure. After all, the first two charges may not be proven in the end. It was possible that he didn't want to admit that he killed the seventh gold medalist.
Seemingly aware of his disbelief, King Yan continued: "Yes, Gold Medal No. 7 has been quarreling with me over the years. I hate him with all my heart, and it is not that I have never thought of getting rid of him, but he His identity is too sensitive. He is directly appointed by the emperor to serve as the emperor's eyes in Yi County. Touching him is tantamount to blatant rebellion. I, Wang Hai, know the importance of this."
"But all the evidence so far seems to point to you." Zu An looked into his eyes.
"Mr. Huo was arrested by you, right?" King Yan suddenly reacted and said bitterly, "That guy failed more than he succeeded."
The key is that he is weird and solitary on weekdays. Sometimes he goes out to do some mysterious things and stays there for several days.
Originally, when he left King Yan, he thought it was the same as usual, so he didn't feel too relieved. It was only now that he realized that something had happened to Mr. Huo.
"You have nothing to say now?" Zu An sneered, "The seventh gold medalist died silently because he was hit by a spiritual attack."
"It turns out that you suspected me of falling in love with me because of Mr. Huo." King Yan suddenly realized.
"You have the most motive for committing the crime, and you have a spiritual expert like Mr. Huo under you. Who else could it be if it weren't you." Zu An looked calm, but various conjectures began to pop up in his mind.
"Since you captured Mr. Huo, did he admit that he killed Gold Medal No. 7?" King Yan sneered.
Zu An frowned slightly. He didn't seem to admit it when he arrested Mr. Huo? Subsequently, the topic of the grievances between Gold Medal No. 7 and King Yan was turned to, and then everyone started looking for the ledger that recorded the evidence of King Yan’s rebellion. Everything seemed to fall into place...
Seeing his silence, King Yan snorted coldly: "I naturally know that I will be the first to be suspected after the death of the seventh gold medal, so I specially sent people to investigate this case."
"Oh, you sent someone to investigate?" Zu An was really surprised now, "Who did you send to investigate?"
"I can't tell you this." King Yan said enigmatically.
Zu An frowned slightly, not sure if he was making a fool of himself or if it was true.
But this is related to many previous details.
"I don't understand why you should have gone to investigate Xiaoyao Tower in the first place, and why you turned back to investigate me." At this time, King Yan spoke again, with a very confused expression.
Zu An was heartbroken: "It turns out you bribed the embroidered cloth messenger."
The traitor's description led him to investigate Tang Tian'er in Xiaoyao Tower, but the other party never expected that he and Tang Tian'er knew each other.
"Did you silence the embroidered messenger?" Zu An asked. Later, Xiao Jianren and the others searched everywhere, even in his hometown, but there was still no news.
"Someone wants to silence him, but it's not me." King Yan smiled, seeming to understand something.
"Where is that person now?" Zu An asked. The traitor seemed not that simple.
"You didn't tell me why you didn't go to Xiaoyao Tower to check but you came back to check on me. Why should I tell you?" King Yan refused directly.
Zu An frowned. This matter was too relevant. He and Tang Tian'er were friends and he didn't want to involve her.
"Although I don't know why you are unwilling to check Xiaoyao Building, I still give you a piece of advice. Regarding the death of Gold Medal Seventh, there is probably something wrong with Xiaoyao Building."
King Yan said with a smile. After the panic when he was imprisoned, he seemed to have figured out some things now, and his expression became obviously relaxed.
Zu An then asked him some more questions, but the other person didn't say a word. Zu An was itching to see him, and he really wanted to use a library of experience cards to challenge him.
However, he hesitated and did not do so, but turned around and left the cell.
Called Zhang Zitong and Xiao Jianren, and ordered them to verify the details in the account books with Zhang Jie and other officials, and at the same time secure relevant personal and material evidence.
Both of them were a little excited. This was a big case, and once it was completed, they would be credited for several years.
Zu An communicated with Zhang Jie, Yang Sheng, Liao Ling and other local officials of Yi County for a while, asking them to hunt down the remaining party members of King Yan and control the Crown Prince of Yan and Prime Minister Sun Xun of Yan as soon as possible.
After the explanation, he hurriedly left. At this time, he had too many doubts in his mind to be verified.
Just after leaving the Prefect's Mansion, something moved in his heart, and he turned back to look in a certain direction.
A figure slowly walked out from behind a big tree. Although he was dressed in black, his familiar figure and his otherworldly temperament made him look like someone other than Yan Xuehen.
"Sister Yan!" Zu An's originally agitated heart suddenly calmed down.
"I'm not worried about your safety. I just felt the emperor's pressure and couldn't help but come over to take a look out of curiosity." Yan Xuehen said with a somewhat unnatural expression.
Zu An sighed quietly: "You are finally here, and you were almost killed by the emperor just now."
He looked weak as he spoke, closed his eyes and fainted to the side.
There was an exclamation next to him, and then he felt that he was lying in a soft body.
"What's wrong with you?" Yan Xuehen asked anxiously, while feeling his pulse.
His expression quickly changed and he pushed him away: "You lied to me again!"
The anger value from Yan Xuehen is +33+33+33...
Zu An was not pushed away, but instead hugged her like brown candy.
"Hurry up and let go!" Yan Xuehen struggled even more fiercely, but in the end he still didn't release the Grand Master's power for fear of accidentally hurting him.
Zu An sighed: "Sister Yan, judging from the situation before and just now, you clearly care about me, so why do you deceive yourself?"
"Who cares about you? I already told you that I noticed the emperor... uh uh..." Before she could finish her sentence, she was blocked by hot lips.
Her beautiful eyes suddenly widened, and her head went blank.
After a while, she finally came to her senses and pushed him away, feeling ashamed and annoyed: "What are you doing!"
While talking, he subconsciously looked around.
"Don't worry, there's no one else here." Zu An looked at her with a smile. The iceberg was stained with a bright red color. It was really a beautiful sight in the world.
"Is this someone else's problem? How dare you be rude to me!" Yan Xuehen was trembling all over, and she didn't know whether it was anger or fear.
"This is called rude. Then what did we do before?" Zu An looked straight at her.
