When Song Xin was arrested, Xu Du Weiwei and Tian Zheng were lowering their heads in Beitun Sima's official office, not daring to make a sound.
Beitun Sima, who looked serious, sat behind a table, flipping through the bamboo slips on the table, sighing slightly from time to time, and making tut-tutting sounds from time to time, obviously dissatisfied with the content on it. Then he raised his head and asked:
"Tian Zheng, you have had a lot of cases recently. Is there any progress?"
Tian Zheng trembled and quickly lowered his head and replied: "Sir, I'm doing my best to investigate, but I really don't have a clue..."
Beitun Sima gently closed a scroll of bamboo slips, raised his eyes to look at Tian Zheng, tilted his head and sighed: "No clue? Haha, how about asking me to check for you? Come on, tell me where to check. I'll go immediately!"
Tian Zheng was shocked, "My lord, please don't say this, I don't dare. I will definitely send more manpower to solve the case as soon as possible!"
Seeing Tian Zheng's uncertain face, Beitun Sima raised his voice and said, "You said the same thing last time I came here. Have you forgotten?"
Tian Zheng felt sweat dripping from his forehead, but he didn't dare to reach out to wipe it. Beitun Sima behind the desk said: "I don't want to reprimand you anymore, but I can tell you that if you can't find the prisoner within three days, the School Office will intervene."
Tian Zheng was startled and couldn't help but exclaimed: "School office?"
That inconspicuous house on a hidden side street in the north of Xudu is a sword over the heads of all officials. If the School Office is involved, it means that Prime Minister Cao also knows about it. Later, when Tian Zheng is dismissed due to incompetence...
Beitun Sima sighed and said: "Then I will give you another chance. If you still can't catch anyone, then prepare to go home and retire." After that, he waved his hand and sent Tian Zheng out.
Back at his home, Tian Zheng was already pacing back and forth in his study uneasily, "People were sent out, but there was no news! Alas..."
At this time, a servant came in and reported, "Sir, the young master and the young lady are back."
"Let them come in quickly." Tian Zheng urged. After a while, Tian Qing'er walked in, "Dad." She called softly.
When Tian Zheng saw his daughter, he responded casually, but suddenly found that there seemed to be tears on Tian Qing'er's face.
"What's wrong with my daughter?" Tian Zheng asked with concern.
Tian Qing'er turned around and closed the door gently, and then began to sob softly.
Tian Zheng was already upset, but when he heard his daughter crying again, his brows immediately furrowed, "Qing'er, how's things going? Is it going well?"
Tian Qing'er suddenly threw herself on her father, crying and saying, "It's all Li Yiping's fault. He said he wouldn't let his daughter be humiliated, but he still let those rough men... look at my daughter's body..."
Tian Zheng was furious and clenched his fist, "What! Did anyone see this?"
Tian Qing'er said: "Song Xin saw it. He... He later killed all those people... My daughter did not dare to speak out for fear of a bad reputation, so she could only come back and tell her father about you."
"You are right. This matter must not be made public. It will damage the reputation of our Tian family. Where is that boy Song Xin?" Tian Zheng said with a cold face.
Tian Qing'er nodded. "I think the team has brought him back."
Tian Zheng breathed a sigh of relief. Before, he was worried about whether his henchmen could successfully catch Song Xin. He had seen that boy's skills before. "Fortunately, everything went according to plan. Qing'er, my father will not let you suffer this in vain. When my father solves this matter, I will definitely find a good family for you and marry you off in a glorious way. .”
He comforted Tian Qing'er a few more words and asked someone to send her to rest. He paced in the room waiting for news. At the same time, he also felt a little regretful. After listening to Li

Yi Ping's suggestion was equivalent to completely breaking up with Song Xin. However, when he thought that Song Xin was just a commoner without any background, his worries finally eased a bit.
At this time, the team leader who was escorting Song Xin came in and whispered a few words to Tian Zheng.
"Bring them here and I will interrogate them personally!" Tian Zheng composed himself so that he did not appear so excited.
A moment later, in the courtyard of the Northern Wei Yamen Office, a group of soldiers escorted two people in. One was Song Xin, and the other was the guard of the Three Saints Cult whose hands and feet had been interrupted. Then several large cars followed, all containing drugged women.
When Tian Zheng saw these demented women, he was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "What's wrong with them? Why do they look like they're in a daze?"
The team leader who led the escort bowed respectfully and said: "Reporting to your lord, the villain discovered these abducted women during his inspection and rescued them."
This team was so shameless that they directly took the credit for Song Xin's achievements.
"The villain also captured two human traffickers. It was this trafficker who drugged them. This is the medicine bottle found in his hand." After speaking, he handed over a small black bottle.
Tian Zheng took the bottle, frowned and gritted his teeth and said, "Bring the prisoner up."
When he saw the person being escorted up, Tian Zheng glanced at him, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and then he pretended to be stunned and asked: "Song Xin, why is it you?"
After finishing speaking, the man from the Three Saints Sect, who was still groaning after his limbs were broken, was suddenly startled and looked at Tian Zheng in astonishment. He didn't expect Master Tian to know this young man. In the midst of panic and shock, Tian Zheng had a sullen face, slammed the table and shouted: "Song Xin! As a servant of the young master, you actually colluded with the thieves and committed human trafficking!"
When Song Xin heard this, he was immediately amused by Tian Zheng's words.
Seeing that Song Xin was not nervous, but actually smiled slightly, Tian Zheng slapped the table again, "Why are you laughing!?"
"Mr. Tian, why did you insist that I was involved in human trafficking without asking for any clues?"
"Hmph, then how did you get caught by my men?" Tian Zheng shouted.
"I was there to save people, but your men rushed over and insisted that I was a bad guy without asking why." Song Xin said with a smile.
The leader's face turned pale and he quickly defended: "Sir, this kid is sophistry."
Tian Zheng was determined to solidify this case. He knew that Song Xin had no support from the wealthy family. Even if he was lucky enough to become Cao Chong's attendant, he would still be punished if he committed a crime. Some people in Xudu may be eager for Song Xin to leave immediately and give up the position of attendant to a member of his own family. Prime Minister Cao likes this son the most and will definitely inherit his career in the future. Many people can see this. Tian Zheng has been in Xudu for so long, so he naturally knows it.
"Maybe, after I deal with Song Xin, those forces can promote me. When Qing'er gets married, I can also be promoted and make a fortune." Tian Zheng thought to himself, and became more determined to frame this case. The determination on Song Xin's head. Moreover, the disappearance of people was related to the Three Holy Sect, and he was worried about finding a scapegoat.
Tian Zheng looked at the male guard with broken limbs on the ground and asked, "What's your name?"
"The villain Zhao Ji."
"Zhao Ji, tell me in detail what happened in the forest. If you dare to conceal it, you will be punished!"
The member of the Three Saints Cult named Zhao Ji cried and cried: "The villain saw this villain abducting those women, so he and a brother stepped forward to stop him, but he killed one of them, and I also had my limbs broken." Tears flowed down sadly as he spoke.
Song Xin looked at his performance and said coldly: "Here we are, still lying."
Tian Zheng glared and shouted: "After all, I am the one who
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Ask questions, or should you ask questions? I am just a servant, but I don't even kneel down when I see you. How can I behave like this? "
Seeing Tian Zheng scolding Song Xin, Zhao Ji on the ground continued to cry: "Sir, this kid is too cruel. I beg you, please uphold justice and make decisions for the common people!"
"Did you really kill his brother?"
"I killed him." Song Xin said.
The team leader came out to finish the job at the right time: "The villain also found several corpses in the forest, and they were also killed by him."
When Tian Zheng heard this, he was elated. With so many lives lost, no one could escape punishment. He shouted angrily: "Song Xin, Tian really misjudged you. You not only trafficked people but also killed people. You regard the law of the country as nothing. Do you really think that I can't punish you!?"
Song Xin retorted: "You only listened to one side of the story, how could you conclude that I am guilty! I killed someone to save your daughter."
When Tian Zheng heard Song Xin mentioning Tian Qing'er, he was furious and immediately interrupted Song Xin: "I didn't expect you to be a clever talker and a vicious person. How can my Qing'er join in the same deeds with you? You kid must You can't pursue Qing'er, so you ruin the reputation of my beloved daughter! Come on, give me twenty canes."
Song Xin guessed that Tian Zheng wanted to put the matter away, but how could he let him do so, "Master Tian, why don't you invite the young lady and her maid out and confront them face to face. If Song Xin tells a lie, he is willing to be punished."
Tian Zheng sneered and his face sank, "Invite the young lady."
After a while, Tian Qing'er came to the main hall with the maid with a cold face,
"Qing'er, Song Xin said that he killed someone to save you. Is this true?"
Everyone looked at Tian Qing'er, waiting for her answer.
Tian Qing'er's eyes were cold, she glanced at Song Xin below, and said, "Qing'er doesn't know why Young Master Song said this. Doesn't he care about his daughter's reputation?" As she spoke, she squeezed out a few tears and kept using her words. Silk sleeves wiped the corners of her eyes and sobbed aggrievedly.
"Qing'er, as a father, I also want to handle the case impartially. Don't be afraid and just tell the truth. No one here dares to stain your reputation."
Tian Qing'er covered her face and cried, shaking her head all the time, unable to say a word at all.
Tian Zheng looked at the maid again and asked, "Is the lady telling the truth?"
The maid's face turned pale, she glanced at Song Xin with a hint of guilt and then lowered her head, "Yes... it's the truth... We have never met this Mr. Song..."
Song Xin listened with a sullen face. The two father and daughter were ready to sacrifice themselves for their own reputation.
Tian Zheng snorted proudly and said, "Song Xin, now that all the witnesses and material evidence are here, do you still want to deny it?" He looked like a winner, raised his head slightly, and looked down at Song Xindao.
"Where's the physical evidence?"
Tian Zheng smiled, took out the vial containing the poison and shook it. "This is your drug, do you still want to deny it?"
"Sir, you said it was a drug, how did you know?" Song Xin asked with a sneer.
Tian Zheng was stunned for a moment, then looked down at the bottle, "What is this if it's not a drug?"
"This is the antidote I want to save people."
"Impossible, this is drug addiction!" Zhao Ji was originally lying on the ground, but now he struggled to sit up.
Song Xin looked at him and said, "I said it was an antidote, you said it was a drug. It's very simple. Just give it a try and you will know."
"How to try?"
"Bring it to those women and let them smell it. If they wake up, it means that Zhao Ji is lying. If he doesn't wake up, then I will plead guilty and be punished." Song Xin looked at Tian Zheng and said loudly.
Tian Zheng gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! I'll give it a try in person and leave you speechless!"
