C119 Triad

At this moment, Su Qian Shan and Su Zaiyuan were sitting on the ground in the prison of the justice courts. Both father and son looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

"Dad, do you think little sister will be able to escape?" Su Zhe Yuan looked at Su Qian Shan, but he was worried about Su Zi Xuan in his heart.

He had gradually recovered from Tao Muyun's treatment over the past few months, and now he had a mindset that should have belonged to someone of his age.

Su Qian Shan had been slowly teaching him these past few days, but he didn't expect to be sent to jail so quickly.

"I hope she gets the news soon and leaves soon." Su Qian Shan's face was also filled with worry. He continued, "I'm afraid that this girl will send herself to our doorstep."

Although he was worried that Su Zixuan wouldn't be able to avoid the officials, he was more worried that Su Zixuan would come back to the capital alone.

They were already like this, they couldn't ask Su Zixuan to have another accident.

"Aye, get up," said the guards as they came to the cell. One of them took out his key to open the cell door while the others went to shackle the two of them.

"What are you trying to do?" Su Qian Shan was bewildered. He did not understand where these people wanted to take them.

"Of course I'm going to punish you," the guard mocked. "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and go."

Su Qian Shan and Su Zhe Yuan looked at each other.

The two of them walked out under the watch of a few guards. Su Qian Shan understood that they were going to be interrogated.

As for the court, this matter shocked the entire court. Other than Fu Feihan who had discovered this earlier, the emperor had also appointed the crown prince and the justice courts to handle this matter with full authority.

Fu Feihan, on the other hand, had no more words to say after the emperor had appointed the crown prince to deal with the matter of personal salt.

Right now, the Crown Prince was sitting up straight. The justice court's official was sitting on either side of him, watching the father and son of the Su Clan slowly arrive. The interrogation was about to begin.

"Su Qian Shan, are you guilty?" As the crown prince, he exuded an imposing aura even though he wasn't angered. He was truly a deterrent to others.

However, Su Qian Shan's face showed no fear. He still said, "This subject doesn't recognize you." The imperial government had given him a rank 6 casual job title. He was not used to it.

"Men, bring the prisoner Wu Guangcai." After receiving the Crown Prince's signal, the Supreme Court ordered the officials in charge to escort Wu Guanghui over.

Because Wu Guangcai was an extremely important prisoner, he was put in prison alone. Actually, he had already been waiting for a long time.

"Convicted Wu Guangcai, are you guilty?" Although the Crown Prince was in charge of this matter, the justice court's official should still be the one to interrogate him in detail.

"This commoner pleads guilty." Wu Guangcai didn't even try to defend himself and directly admitted his guilt.

"Then do you know these two people in the hall?"

"Yes, he was the one who instructed me to buy and sell salt." When Wu Guangcai said this, his expression did not change at all. He did not look at Su Qian Shan with guilt in his eyes.

Su Qian Shan was infuriated by his confident tone. He thought that it was a waste for him to hand over the salt to him. He didn't expect it to be such a cruel and unscrupulous thing.

"Su Qian Shan, are you guilty?"

"This commoner doesn't recognize it."

"Wu Guangcai, tell me in detail." The justice court official asked the question. After he had completed the procedure for questioning, he had finally reached the main event.

"Sir, Su Qian Shan, the boss of the salt shop, secretly found this commoner and asked him to buy and sell private salt. When this commoner refused, he threatened the life of this commoner."

"This commoner truly regrets the past. If I had known earlier, I would not have agreed to this old thief's request!" Wu Guangcai's tears came as soon as he said it.

This explanation was something that he had already mentioned when he was first interrogated by the justice courts in the capital, which was why the matter of the Su Clan going to jail.

The pain on Wu Guangcai's face seemed to have turned into reality as he repeatedly accused Su Qianshan of committing 'adulterous acts'. Those who were unaware would think that he was the 'righteous person' who had done the wrong thing because he was forced to do so.

"Later on, he became even fiercer! "Tell me to bribe the master of the Salt Transport Division and the people of the salt fields." The more he spoke, the more excited he became. His voice was so loud that it shook Su Qian Shan and Su Zaiyuan to the side.

Su Qian Shan clenched his teeth in anger at this nonsense. "Nonsense, you …" Before he could finish his words, an official came up from the side and held him down.

"Silence." Ma Ziming looked at Su Qian Shan with a cold and solemn expression.

"It's all because of this lowly person's private affairs that this person was so brazen, thus committing such a heinous crime. Lord, please punish me!" Wu Guangcai was lying on the floor, the last sentence was filled with anger.

"Swish …"

Before Ma Zi Ming could say anything, he felt a cold snort. When he looked towards the source of the sound, he saw a man dressed in blue robes walking in at a moderate pace.

"Since you've already said that you've committed a great sin because of your own personal matters, then who knows if you've only made a one-sided statement and framed someone." The blue-clothed man mocked the words of the Overlander with a look of disdain.

"Seventh Brother!" The Crown Prince looked displeased, "Why are you here?"
