The Criminal Department has been very busy recently, arresting people, interrogating them, releasing them, arresting, interrogating, and releasing them again.
And the initiator of all this suddenly walked in through the gate with great swagger.
The Minister of Punishment was stunned for a while before he realized that he should get up to greet Zhu Bai.
Zhu Bai wears a splendid sapphire blue round collar with dark patterns and a white fox fur cloak. He looks like a noble man in rich clothes.
Today he was going to bully others, so he rarely put some thought into his clothes.
Otherwise, I won’t be able to show off the prince’s momentum.
At this moment, Shangshu saw that Zhu Bai's calves were trembling.
At this time, half of the dozens of death row inmates in the death row of the Ministry of Punishment were sent in by Zhu Bai.
Zhu Bai said with a smile: "Sir, I want to interrogate a few death row prisoners,"
The minister was a little embarrassed: "Your Highness, a death row prisoner, after being convicted, according to law, only those who have reviewed the case in Dali Temple and have the emperor's imperial decree can be brought to trial."
Zhu Bai knew he would say this, so he smiled and took out the gold medal: "Is this enough?"
The minister hurriedly knelt down and said, "I obey the order."
This brand is really useful.
Zhu Bai felt refreshed and swaggered to sit down behind the minister's desk. He slapped his face hard and said, "Here, bring all the suspects in the private dental racket case."
Zhu Bai had wanted to take a photo of this gavel for a long time, and he finally got his wish today.
That sound is so cool.
Shangshu reminded in a low voice: "Your Highness, it is better to review them one by one."
Zhu Bai said: "Of course I know, but I don't know the name of the person I want to interrogate."
The person guarding the back door of "Juxian Tower" only knew his appearance but not his name. Of course, he wanted to get everyone up and look at them before he knew which one he wanted to interrogate.
The minister whispered again: "How about I take your highness to the death row to see the prisoner? You point out the prisoner and I take him out again?"
If you can't recognize it, doesn't it mean there's no need for a trial?
Anyway, I don’t know what’s wrong with this young prince.
Just coax him to leave. It's better to do less than to do more.
Zhu Bai thought for a while and replied: "That's okay."
-----
Zhu Bai has been to the death row of the Ministry of Punishment.
Only this time, the situation on death row looks much more horrific.
Liu Bowen was not tortured last time and even chatted with Zhu Biao with a smile.
This time, it was filled with people who had been beaten all over, with sighs and wailings.
As soon as I entered the death row, all kinds of fishy and rotten smells hit my face.
Presumably the underworld will not smell any worse or more terrifying than this.
Zhu Bai finally suppressed the turmoil in his stomach, thinking: Otherwise, I won't make this money.
He took a step back and retracted his feet.
For some reason, the sight of the merchant looking at the verification certificate in his hand with tears in his eyes suddenly flashed into his mind.
If he gives up halfway, he will be sorry to many people.
It is obviously impossible to prevent tooth decay.
He got Lantian down and left it alone.
Someone will definitely replace Lantian soon. And this person will be even more vicious and cunning than Lan Tian.
It only makes sense to establish a relatively fair market and kill these people who worked so hard before.
He looked at the prisoners one by one, and finally saw the man in a corner, and raised his hand to signal to the minister.
The minister was surprised and hurriedly asked someone to take the prisoner out.
This young prince actually knows who he is going to interrogate. This is no joke.
Sure enough, as everyone said, this child has the appearance of a seventy-eight-year-old, the intelligence of a twenty-seven-year-old, and the aura of a sixty-seven-year-old.

The man bowed his head and knelt on the ground.
Zhu Bai stood in front of the man and asked, "Do you recognize this king?"
The man said: "You are His Royal Highness the King of Xiang."
Zhu Bai shook his head: "No, no, no, you didn't. Look up and take a good look at me."
The man cautiously raised his head and glanced at Zhu Bai. He should have lowered his head immediately, but couldn't help but his pupils suddenly narrowed, and his eyes were fixed on Zhu Bai's face.
Zhu Bai nodded slightly: "Now you really recognize me."
The man's lips trembled and he kowtowed desperately: "King Xiang, please spare my life. I am blind and did not recognize you at that time."
Zhu Bai smiled: "Don't be afraid. I am here to save you."
The man raised his head again and looked at Zhu Bai.
Zhu Bai said: "You just need to tell me what's weird about your verification certificate."
The man hesitated for a moment and whispered: "There are concave and convex inscriptions on the four corners of the paper."
No wonder. You can't tell by looking, you have to touch it with your hands. So there is no use in imitating handwriting.
Zhu Bai suddenly realized it and asked again: "But as time goes by, people will see through it and then imitate it."
The man added: "It will be changed every month. There is a date on the paper, how much was shipped out in a month, how much was recovered, and we will also register the source of the quantity of the goods. Generally, the goods will be sold within a month. So wait Others figured it out and copied it, but we have already replaced it with a new one."
Zhu Bai: "That is to say, there is one person among you who is responsible for making this paper. He has made a blank one for you, and you can just write on it."
The man nodded: "Yes."
Zhu Bai suppressed his excitement and asked: "Who is that person?"
The man lowered his head: "Only Mr. Lan knows. All the vouchers were issued to us by him."
Zhu Bai said, "What do you mean, that paper was not made by Lanzhou University?"
The man hesitated for a moment: "I once accidentally saw Mr. Lan take the blank certificate from a beam somewhere in the Military and Horse Department. He obviously made an appointment with someone to put it there. With the stack of blank verification certificate Also delivered together is a piece of paper with the prices of various commodities for that month. Normally, Mr. Lan will set the price based on the quantity of a certain commodity that month and fluctuate a little above or below that price."
Zhu Bai nodded slightly.
The man whispered: "His Royal Highness King Xiang, you said you wanted to save the villain, but the villain has already told you everything you know."
Zhu Bai turned to ask the Minister of Punishment: "What punishment has your Excellency ordered for him?"
Shangshu said: "Exiled to Lingnan."
The man hurriedly kowtowed: "Please King Xiang, please save me. I have old and young children to support, and I am forced to do these things to make a living."
Zhu Bai asked Shangshu: "Can I be given a lighter punishment?"
Shangshu was stunned and didn't know how to react.
"Little King of Hell" wants to kill as many people as possible, so how can he plead for mercy? Shangshu: "Your Highness, the state has national laws and families have family rules. Once the Ministry of Punishment makes a decision, no one except Dali Temple or the emperor can..."
Zhu Bai wants to win the gold medal again.
The minister simply knelt down and said, "Your Highness, please be considerate of my difficulties. I also have responsibilities."
Zhu Bai asked: "He is considered guilty of meritorious service. If he performs major meritorious service, shouldn't he also be considered for a reduced sentence?"
Shangshu hesitated for a moment: "But it has been sentenced..."
Zhu Bai asked: "Have the case files been handed over to Dali Temple?"
Shangshu: "No. Logically speaking, I have to hand it in tomorrow."
Zhu Bai nodded: "That means you feel that the decision has been finalized and you are too lazy to change it."
Shangshu: "No, no, no."
Zhu Bai narrowed his eyes and looked at him: "I advise you not to finalize the case for the time being. The main culprit of this case has not been caught yet. If you cooperate with me, when my father investigates the responsibility for dereliction of duty, you will be able to avoid suffering, otherwise ,hehe……"
