The Young and Vigorous Eighth Prince
Chapter 276 Who said the prisoner was killed
This was one of the ways he came up with to save himself. As for the fact that his deputy commander of the personal guards wanted to destroy the Huaining Industrial Park, it would be better for his friend to die than for me to die!
"Fan'er, bring the people here. I will give an explanation to all the people of the world today and settle the case of the grain tax in Hejian in public! Give justice to all the people of the world!"
Emperor Yan ignored Ye Ren and others who were beaten, sat back on the dragon throne, and waved his hand.
Following his voice, Jiang Fan nodded and waved behind him. Soon, the white-robed soldiers in front brought Zhao Jingzhong, Ye Shixuan and Hou Qinglin from the prison car.
The three men were covered in blood, with messy hair. They lowered their heads and could barely be seen as people, but their appearances were unclear.
Seeing the three people in such a miserable state, all the court officials looked at Jiang Fan in astonishment, their hearts aching.
This Eighth Prince is really ruthless. The person has fallen into your hands, and you tortured him like this. We don’t even know whether the person is dead or alive, and you still let the emperor close the case! ?
Emperor Yan was also shocked. He even doubted whether the three people who were brought here could complete the case.
After all, these three people are important criminals. If they cannot plead guilty, the outcome of this case will be a bit ridiculous.
Fortunately, although these three people seemed to have been tortured badly, they were obviously still alive. When they were carried over, they looked up at this side.
However, their faces were so bruised and swollen that they were almost unrecognizable as Zhao Jingzhong and the other two.
The guards in front stood on the left and right, watching the white-robed soldiers escorting the three people over. Just when they walked to the two sides of the guards, suddenly nearly twenty guards from the left and right suddenly attacked the escorting white-robed soldiers.
However, they were not charging at the white-robed soldiers, but at the three prisoners. In the blink of an eye, they forced the ten white-robed soldiers who were escorting them to retreat again and again.
Before the three prisoners could react, they were beheaded by others on the spot. The scene changed so quickly that everyone was shocked.
Only the eldest prince and three other princes, as well as Ye Ren who was being caned, showed satisfaction in their eyes and breathed a sigh of relief.
There was a flash of grief and anger in Ye Ren's eyes, and he looked at Jiang Fan with extreme resentment.
If he had not been forced to do so, he would not want to kill his own nephew. He felt sorry for his brother. But he had no choice. If he did not kill Ye Shixuan, he was afraid that he would be doomed!
When the shadow beside Emperor Yan saw this, he quickly took his fifty shadow guards to protect Emperor Yan.
The faces of the other guards also changed drastically. They looked at the twenty guards who suddenly attacked. For a moment, they didn't know whether they should capture these people or help them.
But while they were hesitating, the twenty guards saw the prisoner being killed, and a look of relief appeared on their faces. Without any hesitation, they cut their own throats with a knife.
This situation shocked everyone at the scene.
Emperor Yan's eyes were slightly fixed, and a chill surged in his eyes. He looked at the eldest prince, the other three princes, and Ye Ren with a hint of murderous intent.
The Royal Guards were responsible for his safety, but someone actually reached out to the Royal Guards. How could he not be shocked and angry?
How could he not know who arranged this manpower, but he had no evidence at the moment, so it was difficult for him to make trouble. However, the anger in his heart had reached its peak.
The people around were shocked when they saw this scene, but soon someone said, "Your Majesty, the criminal has been killed. What should we do now? How can we solve this case?"
The speaker was the Left Prime Minister Fan Xian. As soon as he said this, the Emperor of Yan looked at him deeply. Although this guy did not appear to be attached to any prince.
But when he said this at this time, it was obvious that he hoped that this case would be left unresolved.
The rage in Emperor Yan's heart grew even stronger. If he let this matter go today, he would lose all face.
The emperor wanted to close the case, but he ordered the execution of the criminal. How could he put his face on the emperor? He wanted to set an example for the people, but it turned out to be a joke.
Ye Ren and several other court officials, as well as the eldest prince, three other princes, and the sixth prince looked at Jiang Fan mockingly, feeling proud in their hearts.
It was Jiang Fan who proposed to close the case, but now, it ended like this. The Emperor Yan was greatly embarrassed. The Emperor Yan was unable to save face at this moment, and Jiang Fan was afraid that he would be held accountable.
However, just as Fan Xian said this, Jiang Fan smiled faintly and said, "Prime Minister Fan, who said the prisoner was killed?"
As soon as he said this, everyone at the scene was stunned. They looked at Jiang Fan in astonishment, their eyes full of disbelief.
They clearly saw the prisoner being killed and his head chopped off, but Jiang Fan actually said that the prisoner was not dead. Was he kidding?
However, everyone immediately thought of a possibility, and they all looked at Jiang Fan in shock, their eyes full of disbelief.
Emperor Yan also reacted, looking at Jiang Fan with admiration, he was indeed his son, he had actually predicted that the criminal would be killed and had already taken precautions.
The three prisoners who were just killed were probably people hired by Jiang Fan to impersonate them. Otherwise, how could Jiang Fan be so calm?
Emperor Yan's guess was absolutely correct. The three prisoners were people hired by Jiang Fan to impersonate them. They were some of the 500 cavalrymen who were killed on the road before.
Jiang Fan had kept the few people who had survived, just in case. He had expected what was happening in front of the city gate, so how could he not be prepared?
Only Ye Ren and others are stupid enough to think that he is not on guard.
"Well... my son is indeed extremely intelligent. He actually figured out the thief's plan. It seems that this case is of great importance. Someone actually wants to kill people to silence them. If this is the case, then we must give the people an explanation for this matter. Fan'er, bring the criminal here!"
Emperor Yan continued to speak to Jiang Fan.
As soon as he said this, all the court officials couldn't help but look at Emperor Yan and Jiang Fan. This father and son really worked together perfectly.
Even though someone had tried to assassinate him, the Emperor of Yan was not afraid and continued to close the case. This was to leave no chance for the person behind the scenes to survive in front of the people.
As soon as Emperor Yan said this, Ye Ren and other court officials and the three princes turned pale instantly. Ye Ren and the three princes looked at Jiang Fan with fear in their eyes.
They never imagined that Jiang Fan was so calculating that he would even think of arranging people to assassinate them.
They thought they had already won, but they didn't expect to fall into Jiang Fan's trap. Now, they were afraid that they would bring more trouble to themselves.
If no one had assassinated them, they could still make excuses, but now someone wanted to silence them, and things became complicated and weird.
Once the criminals have decided on them, they will be in trouble. There is no way to refute it.
Ye Ren and the three princes looked at Jiang Fan in horror, their eyes full of hatred. They wished they could eat Jiang Fan alive.
But they could only look at Jiang Fan helplessly, with despair in their eyes.
