After hearing these words, the storyteller's face immediately turned pale.
The person standing next to him was a real Imperial Guardsman. Once this charge was confirmed, it would be inevitable to implicate the nine tribes.
However, the owner of this tavern is his friend, and the storyteller was invited by the tavern. It is better to ask more clearly about this matter.
After taking a look at the crowd, the hundred households shouted loudly: "Is this what this young man said?"
Most of the people here are regular patrons of Mr. Storyteller. Although this was what he said, everyone still chose to remain silent.
Pointing at one of the men casually, the man said: "Tell me, is that so?"
"That's right." The man replied solemnly.
After asking four or five people in a row, everyone confirmed Xiao Chen's statement.
Seeing that the situation was out of control, the shopkeeper at the door hurriedly asked his employer to come over.
When such an incident happened in public, hundreds of households felt embarrassed, but official matters had to be handled openly.
Then the storyteller next to him said: "Get this person for me."
The captain of the Imperial Guard was also very efficient in his work and tied up the storyteller in just a few strokes.
"He also has two accomplices." Looking at the storyteller who was tied up and silent, Xiao Chen said with a smile.
"Are there any accomplices? Where are they?"
"That's them." Xiao Chen raised his right hand and pointed at the two men hiding in the crowd.
"Don't listen to his nonsense, we are just here to listen to the book." Seeing that the entire army was wiped out, the man hurriedly defended.
When hundreds of households looked confused and didn't know how to make a decision, Xiao Chen spoke.
"Yes or no, my lord, take it back and interrogate it and you will know."
Baihu nodded: "That's right. Get them together for me."
Upon hearing the order, several captains rushed forward and tied up the two of them with three strikes.
At this moment, a man in his thirties, dressed in rich clothes, walked in from the door.
"Lu Baihu, misunderstanding, misunderstanding." He arched his hands and greeted Jin Yiwei Baihu with a smile on his face.
Baihu raised his head: "Brother Fan, why are you here? From now on, you must strictly control the people you find. This storyteller dares to target the emperor in public. If this crime is carried out, I'm afraid you will also
Got implicated."
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding." Pulling Baihu aside, the visitor thrust a stack of banknotes into Baihu's hands.
Like encountering a hot potato, hundreds of households hurriedly ran away.
"With so many witnesses, this matter is no longer a misunderstanding. I would like to be more lenient, but I don't dare to be careless about the emperor's crimes." Baihu said.
"Both the Hubu and Jinyiwei are serving the imperial court. Brother Lu, please don't listen to other people's words. You have wronged a good person." The visitor once again put the banknotes into the hands of Baihu.
Before Baihu could refuse, Xiao Chen laughed at the side.
"He blocked Jin Yiwei from handling the case and tried to use money to change the fairness of the court's laws. This person should also be arrested."
Baihu was stunned and looked at Xiao Chen again.
Who is this person, and how does he know so much about Jin Yiwei's handling of the case?
At that moment, he straightened his face and said, "Brother Fan, please respect yourself. If you continue to block Jin Yiwei from handling the case, I will really take you down as well."
The visitor's face darkened, and he looked at Xiao Chen: "Who are you? Why are you interrupting when we are talking? There is really an extra horse's mouth in the donkey's trough."
As soon as he finished speaking, a loud slap sounded in the hall.
Everyone froze on the spot, seemingly completely refreshed by the scene in front of them.
Who is this young man? He dares to beat up even the owner of the tavern.
The hundred households were also shocked again.
He said it himself, this is a tavern opened by the brother-in-law of Mr. Cao, the head of the Household Department. From the conversation between the two, any fool can tell that this person is the owner of the tavern.
But the young man in front of him beat someone when he disagreed with him, and he clearly didn't take the head of the household department seriously.
I was slapped in the face, still in my own tavern, and the person who came here suddenly lost his dignity.
"If you dare to hit me, do you want to die?" he roared, about to fight Xiao Chen.
Lifting his right foot, Xiao Chen kicked him to the ground with his right foot and turned to look at the hundred households: "Take this person down together."
Baihu slapped his forehead several times.
This is not a dream, right? I am a member of the Jinyiwei family, but I am being commanded by the young man in front of me. If this matter spreads out, not to mention that I can't help it, even the Jinyiwei will probably be looked down upon by others.
"Who are you? You dare to yell at Jin Yiwei?"
Xiao Chen turned sideways, flashed the purple plum blossom order on his waist in front of the hundreds of households, and said softly: "Don't ask too much, just do as I say."
"Take down Fan Ming together." The hundred households shouted loudly.
Just say that when I see Xiao Chen, I always feel familiar, but I can never remember who this person is.
However, when they saw the purple plum blossom order on Xiao Chen's waist, the hundreds of households were frightened and broke into a cold sweat.
The purple plum blossom order is unique in the audience and is the status symbol of the purple-robed captain.
As for the purple-robed captain, who had previously killed the Minister of Rites, and this time arrested His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, he, a small member of the Imperial Guards, was no different from an ant in his eyes.
Today, thanks to my own principles in handling the case, otherwise, I might not be able to save my head.
Seeing that Baihu, who was drinking with him yesterday, actually ordered his arrest, Fan Ming's anger towards Xiao Chen immediately shifted to Baihu.
"Lu Jun, we are still friends, but you actually let someone arrest me. Hubu will not let you go." Fan Ming began to roar loudly.
"Papa", he raised his right hand and Baihu Lu Jun slapped Fan Ming twice loudly in the face.
"Shut up. Jin Yiwei is handling the case, how can you speak?"
At this time, it was not just the customers who were listening to the storytelling that were shocked. The shopkeeper and waiter of Li An's Tavern all stood stunned.
My boss is the brother-in-law of the head of the Household Department, and I have been friends with Lu Jun, a member of the Jin Yiwei Bai household for a long time.
Now, this slap was slapped involuntarily. What on earth is going on?
However, they were surprised, but no one dared to come forward to persuade him. After all, the other party was the Jinyiwei Baihu who everyone feared.
After tying everyone up, Baihu walked up to Xiao Chen, put his feet together, bowed slightly, raised his fists, and gave Xiao Chen a standard palace salute: "Sir, take down all the criminals, please."
Decision."
"Follow me and escort you to Dongchang Prison." He picked up the remaining half bowl of wine on the table and drank it all in one gulp. He then went to the counter and put down some broken silver. Xiao Chen turned around and walked out of the tavern door.
There was silence in the hall, except for the sound of heavy breathing, one after another...
