Dimension Paradise, I am a summoning apostle

Chapter 162 Overturning the Verdict (Force Deterrence Version)

There are undercurrents in the upper echelons of Linyuan City. Three heads are placed at the governor's bedside, corpses are piled on the smuggling ships in the port, and the Qinglong Society is about to be wiped out.

As for the minor riot in the north of the city and the female corpse? Compared to these three major events, no one cared about them anymore.

Early in the morning, Chu Danqing went out to visit the prison.

After paying some silver and money, he met Yang Wenjuan smoothly.

Thanks to the treatment and a good rest last night, Yang Wenjuan seemed to have recovered the spirit he had when we first met.

But after all these twists and turns, he looked at least ten years older.

Seeing Chu Danqing coming, he stood up and bowed, "Mr. Chu."

Because they were wanted criminals, Yang Wenju and Bai Xiaohe were kept apart from other people and there were no other criminals around them.

Chu Danqing glanced at Dabao and the Son of Heaven, and their expressions told him that there was no one around.

"I've already taken care of the port situation. I've dealt with the three smuggling ships and the Azure Dragon Society."

"The heads of Xue Yong, Qiao Huaiyuan, and that leader were also sent to the governor."

"They say this thread is the Queen Mother's personal money."

"You also said that you have the Zhenhai Map in your hand." Chu Danqing said in a low voice, while making sure that Yang Wenju could hear it.

A look of horror appeared on Yang Wenju's face. He didn't expect that this matter would involve such a wide range of people.

He quickly calmed down the expression on his face and said calmly, "I don't have the Zhenhai map."

"You don't believe me?" Chu Danqing frowned.

"No, I really don't have the Zhenhai Map." Seeing Chu Danqing misunderstanding, Yang Wenju explained with a wry smile.

"I have the Governor's smuggling ledgers," Yang Wenju continued. "They include not only the Azure Dragon Society, but also the White Tiger Hall, Suzaku Tower, and Xuanwu Gate's entire industrial ledger."

When Chu Danqing heard this, he almost burst out with the curse in his heart.

"So many account books? How did you get them?" Chu Danqing really didn't expect that he still had a royal flush in his hand.

"Of course I couldn't get it, but I'm knowledgeable and have a good memory, so I wrote it all down." Yang Wenjuan said with a hint of pride, but it quickly disappeared.

What's the use of being knowledgeable and having a good memory? He is still in prison. If it weren't for the help of Chu Danqing and Liu Bai, he would probably have been wrapped in a straw mat and thrown into a mass grave.

"Of course, Mr. Chu, if you want the original, I also know where it is." Yang Wenju said, whispering an address to Chu Danqing.

This place is indeed very hidden, and no one would have thought that the account book could be hidden there.

Yichun Tower.

"It's probably too late then." Chu Danqing understood that he had made too much noise last night, and the governor was not a fool, so there was a high possibility that he would be transferred.

Chu Danqing summoned a ghost baby and asked it to investigate.

It doesn’t matter whether you have the Zhenhai map or not, but if you get the account book, the rest will be much easier.

"The Zhenhai map is here with me." Bai Xiaohe, with disheveled hair in the cell next door, interrupted in a sweet voice.

Chu Danqing turned around and was confused. How did it end up in your hands?

"The night before my husband was poisoned, he gave me this sea chart, saying only that someone would help me if I were in trouble."

"Let me give this sea chart to the person who helps me." Bai Xiaohe explained.

"Is it possible that this person is not me, but Liu Bai?" Chu Danqing originally thought that Liu Bai came to save Yang Wenjuan, but now it seems that he came to save Bai Xiaohe.

Bai Xiaohe's husband Ge Da's real identity is probably not a night watchman.

As for why they framed Yang Wenjuan and tortured him, it was all up to them.

However, Bai Xiaohe shook her head: "Maybe it's possible, but Liu Bai can't save me and Yang Xiucai."

She could see the situation clearly, and even if she gave Liu Bai the chance to rescue them, the possibility was slim.

Liu Bai is a native of Linyuan City. How can he fight against Linyuan City itself?

On the contrary, it was Chu Danqing, a foreigner with a special status, who had this opportunity.

Bai Xiaohe knew that what Chu Danqing said was more likely, but it was Liu Bai's fault for not being able to arrive first.

"The Zhenhai map is under the water tank in my house. You can find it by moving the water tank away and digging ten inches." Bai Xiaohe told Chu Danqing without hesitation.

"Okay, I understand." Chu Danqing agreed, and then said: "If nothing unexpected happens, you can leave today."

"The Governor cherishes his life very much and will definitely not risk his own life to wrongly accuse you."

Yang Wen and Bai Xiaohe could understand the first two sentences, but they couldn't understand the second one.

What does it mean to cherish one's life? What methods did you use to clear their name?
I always feel that this method is not very decent.

At this time, Chu Danqing was thinking, what is the use of the account book and the Zhenhai map?
In the eyes of Linyuan City’s top leaders, this is a deadly weapon, and Chu Danqing also thinks so.

But the problem is that Chu Danqing didn't really come from the capital, and the knife in his hand only had a handle but no blade.

At most it can be used as a threat.
While he was thinking, several yamen runners rushed in.

When they saw Chu Danqing, their faces looked as if they had seen a ghost.

"Mr. Chu's government office asked us to bring in a wanted criminal for interrogation. What do you think?" the captain asked cautiously.

They all witnessed the majesty of the court yesterday.

"Isn't the court crushed? It's not easy for Lord Qiao to be so eager to find fun for me." Chu Danqing changed his expression and said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, the head constable said with a hint of resignation, "Master Qiao committed suicide last night out of fear of punishment. Today, the governor will personally interrogate him."

"So the trial was held in the government office."

Upon hearing the news of Qiao Huaiyuan's death, Yang Wenju and Bai Xiaohe looked bewildered. Could this be suicide? This was clearly the work of this Mr. Chu. Chu Danqing had said it, but they didn't believe it. Who would dare to openly kill an official and rebel?

Now that we have witnesses, we can confirm that it is the truth.

"Let's go and take a look together." Of course Chu Danqing couldn't leave.

Seeing this, the bailiffs did not dare to stop him and could only let Chu Danqing go with them.

When we arrived at the government office, the court had already been set up.

Governor Jia Simiao was sitting in the main seat. When he saw Chu Danqing following beside him, his eyes changed slightly when he looked at him.

He knew that Chu Danqing had done these things, and Chu Danqing knew that he knew them, but both sides pretended that nothing had happened.

Jia Simiao was not Qiao Huaiyuan, so he simply ignored Chu Danqing.

He banged the gavel and said, "Court is open!"

The whole process went on quickly, and during the interrogation, it didn't seem like Qiao Huaiyuan was too hasty to convict people right away.

On the other side, Liu Bai also arrived. This time the presiding judge was the governor, and he did not dare to interrupt as he did before.

When he woke up in the morning, he heard about what happened last night. The clues pointed to Chu Danqing, but he pretended not to know.

Chu Danqing narrowed his eyes as he watched the interrogation process.

Governor Jia Simiao was very careful in this process and acted extremely fairly. It seemed that he did not want to give Chu Danqing any handle.

At the end of the trial, Yang Wenjuan and Bai Xiaohe were cleared of all charges.

The two did not commit adultery, and Bai Xiaohe's husband Ge Da died of a sudden illness.

The reason why this happened was that Qiao Huaiyuan had a personal grudge against Yang Wenju, so he tortured Bai Xiaohe into confessing and framing Yang Wenju.

As a result, all those who gave false testimony yesterday changed their statements, saying that they were coerced by Qiao Huaiyuan and had no choice but to submit.

A dead person was sacrificed to calm the situation.

"I'm still too young." Chu Danqing looked at the completed task and exclaimed in his heart, "What a great guy!"

Yang Wenjuan and Bai Xiaohe were acquitted in court, and the matter ended there.

As for compensation? They didn't dare ask for it. They were lucky to escape alive.

If you really don't know how to appreciate the favor you've been given, there will be plenty of opportunities to punish you in the future.

"Mr. Chu, I am hosting a banquet in my house tonight. Please be sure to come and join us." As Jia Simu started speaking, his staff trotted over to Chu Danqing and handed him an invitation.

Chu Danqing took it, but without looking through it, nodded and said, "Since Lord Jia has invited me, I will definitely attend the meeting."

Of course I have to go and see what this old guy is up to.

"Then I, Jia, will stay at home, waiting for Mr. Chu to come." After saying this, Jia Simu got up and left.

What he feared was Chu Danqing's unruly force, not his power and status.

Being able to become a governor means that one has an extremely complex network of personal connections behind him.

Not to mention that he also made money for the Queen Mother. Even if he wanted to be liquidated, it wouldn't be now.

After everyone left, Chu Danqing slowly left the government office.

Bai Xiaohe had been waiting at the door for a long time, apparently waiting for Chu Danqing.

"Mr. Chu, I forgot to say something earlier." Bai Xiaohe suddenly added, "It was in my mother's old house."

Then he gave Chu Danqing the address and left.

For most people, this is the end of the matter.

But for Bai Xiaohe, it has just begun.

The gossipy neighbors and her mother-in-law who reported her to the police and sent her to jail were still waiting for her.

She is not the type to allow herself to be bullied. She goes back to seek revenge, not to endure.

When Chu Danqing heard this, he was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

They all had backup plans, no wonder they dared to tell him as soon as they met.

"That's perfect, let's go." Although Chu Danqing didn't care much about the Zhenhai map, what if it was equipment?

Or it is possible that the so-called Zhenhai Map is just a part of the Jiuding Map.

After all, side quests are a supplement to the main quests, and there are definitely benefits in them, not to mention that they are A-level.

After he left the house, the ghost baby he had sent to check the account books also rushed over.

He described the situation with his hands and feet gesticulating.

It roughly means that there is nothing and there are traces of newness.

"Okay, I understand." Chu Danqing replied and cancelled the ghost baby.

It was normal for things to be moved before dawn. After all, the three ghost babies who brought gifts to Jia Simu were exposed and killed. If the other party had not been alert, how could they dare to do smuggling?

Fortunately, they thought that what Yang Wenju had in his hand was a sea chart, and they didn't know that the real leverage Yang Wenju had was the account book.

Otherwise, Yang Wenju and even Bai Xiaohe would have died of illness before dawn.

Anyway, the dead Qiao Huaiyuan has to take the blame.
