Dafeng's Night Squad

Chapter 543



543 Chapter 87-how to break out of this situation?

Xu Qi ‘an put on an innocent face. After thinking for a while, his expression suddenly changed.”Well, Minister sun not only accused my cousin of cheating in the imperial examination, but also wanted to frame me. There is such a despicable and shameless person in the world.”

“You …”

Minister sun finally moved his eyes and stared at Xu Qi ‘an. He didn’t say anything, but waved the officials in the hall away. Then, he said word by word, ”

“I see that you’re young and don’t know the rules, so I’m willing to give you a chance. If you still want to stay in the capital’s officialdom, then obediently let her go.”

“Minister sun must have made a mistake. I don’t know what you’re talking about,” Xu Qi ‘an said, shaking his head.

After a pause, he came to a realization and asked with concern, “”From Minister sun’s words, could it be that something has happened to your young master? Kidnapped by thieves? Tell me, I’m the most righteous person, and no one can solve cases like me. As long as Minister Sun says the word, I promise that I can find him for you within a day.”

You’re playing dumb … Minister sun’s anger rose from the bottom of his heart, and he said fiercely, “”Xu Qi ‘an, don’t forget that you also have a family.”

Xu Qi ‘an sighed and looked sad. “Minister, you don’t seem to understand me. My parents died when I was young, and my second uncle raised me.

“However, Xuanji bullied and humiliated me. When I was 15 years old, he drove me out of the house and made me live in a dog’s kennel. It’s a pity that I don’t have a 100000-strong Army to support me, and a father who has a crooked mouth …”

“Xu Qian!” Minister sun interrupted him angrily. He stared at him for a long time and said in a low voice, ”

“What do you want? The imperial examination fraud case was investigated by His Majesty, and the Ministry of Justice and the magistrate were presiding. The entire court was watching, and I had no say in it. If you want to use my son as a hostage, I can only fight you to the death. Don’t be naive!”

In this day and age, whoever was more domineering would be able to take advantage … My cousin is naturally not as important as my son. I can be ‘cruel’, but he can’t … Xu Qi ‘an narrowed his eyes and walked in front of Minister sun. He whispered into his ear,

“I only have one request. During Xu niannian’s imprisonment, no torture is allowed, and don’t even think about forcing him to confess. For every finger he lost, I’ll break one of your son’s fingers. I’ll leave as many wounds on your son as he has.

“After the imperial examination fraud case is over, regardless of whether Xu niannian can get away with it or not, I will release your son as promised.”

“Xu Qian …”

Minister sun was about to scold him when Xu Qi ‘an’s face suddenly darkened. He shouted, “”Call me Lord Viscount,”

…….. “Lord Viscount, why should I believe you?” Minister sun gave in and said in a deep voice.

“Minister sun, do you have a choice? Believe it or not, you have to do as I say. Unless you don’t want a son. I’m not asking you to help Xu niannian get away with it, I just want you to stop doing anything unnecessary.

Xu Qi ‘an slowly walked to the table, picked up a piece of cake, and ate it. He said lightly, ”

“Minister sun, do you have a choice? Believe it or not, you have to do as I say. Unless you don’t want a son. I’m not asking you to help Xu niannian get away with it, I just want you to stop doing anything unnecessary. This matter isn’t difficult.”

He walked in front of Minister sun, wiped his red robe, and said in a deep voice, “”Just as you said, I have a family too.”

This step was taught to him by Wei Yuan, but he was the one who came up with the idea and plan.

Doing nothing and hoping that the opponent would be kind was only a fool’s dream. The teasing and cold treatment he had received at the Ministry of Justice this morning was the perfect proof.

If he wanted to defeat his enemy, he had to grasp his opponent’s weakness.

Most of their weaknesses were their blood and flesh. However, it was a big taboo to involve one’s family. Xu Qi ‘an had to consider and control the extent of it.

Therefore, he did not think that sun yaoyue alone could save Erlang. He only used sun yaoyue and Minister sun as a transaction. This way, the difficulty would be greatly reduced, and the nature would be lighter.

As for Minister sun’s disagreement and his insistence on torturing Xu Erlang, Xu Qi ‘an did what he said. He even made Minister sun send off his younger brother.

So far, everything had been within his expectations, thanks to his good grasp of the scale.

Minister sun let out a breath. I will trust you this time. I will not torture Xu Erlang. I also hope that when my son returns to the manor, he will be safe and sound. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences.

“Naturally.” Xu Qi ‘an snorted.

“But I’m worried about you too. I’m going to meet Xu niannian. Get someone to make the arrangements.”

As he spoke, he walked to the door in a nonchalant manner. Suddenly, he turned around and smiled. Oh right, Lord Viscount … That’s a good name.”

Minister sun’s face was gloomy and his beard was trembling with anger.

………….

“Hualala …”

The jailer opened the door to the prison with the sound of the chains sliding, and the damp and rotten smell hit him in the face.

Under the lead of the jailer, Xu Qi ‘an walked through the dark passage and came to the cell where Xu niannian was held.

Xu niannian closed his eyes and leaned against the wall to rest. He was wearing a prison uniform, his face pale and his body stained with blood.

Xu Qi ‘an’s face darkened when he saw his younger brother’s miserable state. He had come too late, and Erlang had suffered in prison.

He had underestimated Minister sun’s determination to take revenge on him.

“Erlang, Erlang …” Xu Qi ‘an said softly.

Xu Erlang was stunned and suspected that he had heard wrong. He opened his eyes in shock.
