The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 709

The Minister of Justice wanted to obtain Tuge's gold and silver jewelry.

They just randomly picked someone to take the blame.

Moreover, they bribed all the witnesses in the brothel.

They have even managed to appease the deceased's family.

This matter is absolutely foolproof.

In the end, it had absolutely nothing to do with Tuge.

Li Er received a memorial from the Minister of Justice.

The case was closed.

This matter quickly reached Xu Tian's ears.

"Is that so? In the end, this matter has absolutely nothing to do with Tug."

He was the one who first investigated this matter.

Because he has no right to interfere in such matters.

Therefore, in the end, this matter fell to the Ministry of Justice.

Something he had never expected.

The Ministry of Justice actually closed the case like this.

Everyone had initially confirmed that the killer was Tug.

But now an unknown person has suddenly appeared.

He became a murderer.

That's a death sentence.

Since ancient times, murderers have been punished with their lives.

Xu Tian felt that this matter was shrouded in mystery.

He quickly infiltrated the Ministry of Justice prison.

Because no one knew that he was clear about the ins and outs of this matter.

Therefore, no one had any doubts.

He is now a prince.

The people from the Ministry of Justice didn't dare to stop him at all.

"Where is the criminal who committed murder in the brothel the other day?"

The official responded quickly.

"Your Highness, he's been imprisoned in the death row down below."

Xu Tian then nodded in understanding.

The officers led them to the outside of the prisoner's quarters.

Xu Tian saw the prisoner huddled in the corner.

"Did you kill that young master who caused trouble in the brothel?"

Xu Tian stared intently at that person.

Perhaps he heard Xu Tian's voice, for he slowly raised his head.

Looking at the person in front of him, separated by several wooden pillars, he couldn't make out what the person looked like.

But the imposing aura emanating from that person made him feel somewhat uneasy.

"Tell me, what exactly happened that day? And why did you kill him?"

Do you even know who you killed?

Xu Tian asked clearly, word by word.

The man listened for a long time, but only clearly heard Xu Tian's words, "This king."

The one who dares to call himself "this king" is undoubtedly a prince.

Now, looking at the person in front of him, the disheveled man seemed even more terrified.

"This! I, um..."

The man stammered and couldn't answer at all.

He seemed to have rested for a while and sorted out his thoughts.

I feel a little better now; at least the shaking isn't as intense.

“It was that man. He hit me first. He said I was poor and that I wasn’t even a real man.”

“I am poor, my family has always been poor. But why is he rich? He can be arrogant and domineering. Even if he beats someone, he can just bribe the government with a little silver.”

"But we can't, because we are poor."

“I hate people like him the most. I must kill him. Only by killing him can I get rid of the jealousy in my heart.”

Xu Tian listened to the man's story.

It had absolutely nothing to do with what he had asked about before.

He walked straight out of the prison.
