Chapter 18
"I should be the one asking you this. May I ask if the Prime Minister still has the word 'law' in his eyes? And the Imperial Court?"
Wang Yanling's loud shout could not scare Pang Yu. He looked at Wang Yanling and shouted sternly.
"You led your troops to surround this prime minister's residence and questioned this prime minister. What are your intentions? Do you still have the laws of the imperial court in your eyes?”
Wang Yanling was so angry that his beard was trembling. He pointed at Pang Yu with a furious expression.
Pang Yu also ignored this old fellow. You talk to him, talking for a long time won't solve the problem.
His gaze turned to the new top scorer, Zhou Qin. He looked at him and asked,"Are you the new top scorer, Zhou Qin?”
"This one is the new top scorer, Zhou Qin. May I ask if Marquis An Le has anything to say?”
Zhou Qin was not afraid. He was now Prime Minister Wang Yanling's future son-in-law. With Wang Yanling around, what was there to be afraid of? The Prime Minister was, after all, an important official of the court.
"What is it?"
Pang Yu's face revealed a cold smile as he shouted sternly," Men, capture him!"
A few Imperial Army soldiers immediately went up and arrested Zhou Qin. Wang Yanling was furious when he saw this. Bao Zheng stood up and stopped him."Marquis An Le, why did you capture the new top scorer, Zhou Qin? Do you know that he is the new top scorer personally appointed by His Majesty and is the son of heaven's disciple?”
"Hmph, you're all wrong. He was not the new top scorer, but a murderer who killed Jin Lan's sworn brother and his savior. The new top scorer is someone else, definitely not this person ~"
Pang Yu looked at him and shouted sternly.
Zhou Qin was a little flustered, but when he thought about how his second brother could no longer speak, write, or see, even if Marquis An Le discovered something, he would not be able to prove it. He instantly became more confident.
When he saw Wang Yanling, his future father-in-law, and the fact that he was the Son of Heaven's disciple in name, he felt even more confident.
"Pang Yu, how dare you! He is the new top scorer, and this is His Majesty's personal appointment. This is the Prime Minister's residence. He's the new top scorer. Don't spout nonsense ~"
Bao Zheng looked at Pang Yu and said sternly.
"Yes, that's right! I am the new champion appointed by Your Majesty and the disciple of the Son of Heaven. What right do you have to slander me? You want to arrest me? You need a reason to arrest someone. Are you rich playboys so brazen when they arrest someone?”
This Zhou Qin looked at Pang Yu and shouted loudly. He was extremely confident.
"F * ck you. You're also the new top scorer? Then do you know that I'm also the son of the current Imperial Uncle, the Grand Preceptor? How dare a person like you make a fool of yourself in front of me? Do you think Wang Yanling can save you?
Or do you think Bao Hei Zi can save you? I'll tell you today, no one can save you today. In order to capture you, I asked the Grand Commandant to deploy 300 Imperial Army soldiers to surround the Prime Minister's residence.
Today, not even the heavens can save you. Arrest them. Whoever dares to stop them will be punished for deceiving the emperor ~"
Pang Yu's eyes widened. From last night until now, he had long wanted to capture this bastard. He had never seen such a ruthless person. Not only did his savior not repay his kindness, but he also repaid his kindness with ingratitude. Moreover, this was his sworn brother.
"Deceiving the emperor? What crime did he commit? To make you go to such great lengths to mobilize 300 imperial soldiers to surround the Prime Minister's residence? If you don't tell me the reason today, unless you step over my corpse, I won't let you go.”
Bao Zheng looked at Pang Yu and shouted angrily.
"You want to know? Then I'll tell you ~"
As he spoke, Pang Yu clapped his hands. Under Bao Zheng's stunned gaze, the blind and mute he saw last night appeared in front of everyone. When Zhou Qin saw his second brother, his heart trembled. He didn't expect this guy to be alive.
His eyes were blind, he was mute, and his hands were crippled. Yet, he was still able to survive, and even made Pang Yu seek justice for him.
At this moment, he forced himself to be calm. At this moment, he felt that he should be even more calm. This second brother couldn't speak or write, so he shouldn't be a threat to him.
"Blackie Bao, you know this person, right? Do you know his name? What was his relationship with the new top scorer, Zhou Qin? Do you know why he became like this?”
Pang Yu's three consecutive questions piqued Bao Zheng's curiosity. He was now gradually certain that Pang Yu was indeed not fooling around. He must have discovered something, or even something related to this new top scorer, Zhou Qin. Otherwise, he wouldn't have done this.
Surrounding the Prime Minister's residence, how big of a crime was this? Pang Yu was not a fool. If he did not have a reason, the reason for doing so would ruin his glory and wealth. After all, surrounding the Prime Minister's residence would cause a fierce reaction from the entire scholar-bureaucrat class. Even the Emperor would have no choice but to punish his brother-in-law.
"Tell me one by one ~"
Bao Zheng took a deep breath and said.
"This blind man is also called Zhou Qin. He has the same name as the new top scorer, and the two of them are sworn brothers. The reason why he was reduced to this state was because of the actions of this new top scholar, Zhou Qin.
The real top scorer was him, not Wang Yanling's son-in-law. Yesterday, he was jealous of his second brother's achievement, so he prepared poisoned wine in the name of celebration. He poured poisoned wine on his second brother and splashed it on his face.
As a result, the real new top scorer became a cripple who could not speak, see, or write.
Blackie Bao, what else do you have to say now?”
Pang Yu looked at Bao Zheng and asked sternly.
"Impossible ~ How can there be such a strange story in the world? They have the same name and surname, and they are sworn brothers. Absolutely impossible. Besides, we had a good chat together at noon today. My son-in-law's new top scorer is well-deserved.
Pang Yu, don't you dare use any random person to slander my beloved son-in-law!"
Wang Yanling said loudly.
"En, not bad. Prime Minister is right. The new top scorer Zhou Qin is indeed talented. As the new top scorer, he should be like this.”
Bao Zheng thought about it and agreed. However, he didn't say it out loud. After all, he was also worried that Pang Yu had a reason to lead his troops to surround the Prime Minister's Residence.
"It's not up to you, Wang Yanling, to slander everyone. Listen carefully, I'm here today to take you away. None of you can stop me. If you continue to stop me, I can only bring you to court and punish you for the same crime."
Pang Yu said firmly and decisively. After he finished speaking, he waved his hand and shouted," Let's go! Bring her back to the Ministry of Justice!"
After saying that, he completely ignored the struggle of the new top scorer, Zhou Qin, and directly took him away. He didn't even care about Bao Zheng and Wang Yanling.
"Prime Minister, let's go to the Ministry of Justice as well ~ but you have to be mentally prepared. Because he was brought to the Ministry of Justice."
When Bao Zheng heard Pang Yu say that he would bring him to the Ministry of Justice, he already believed Pang Yu 70 - 80% of the time. After all, if he were to be brought to the Ministry of Justice, it would not be a private matter. It would be a public matter. As such, Pang Yu could not possibly spout nonsense. Presumably, he had already gathered the evidence.
" Hey, let's go to the Ministry of Justice."
Wang Yanling was a good official. At this time, he also felt that something was wrong. His son-in-law, who had yet to marry into the family, was probably a fake top scholar.
"Daddy, wait for me. I want it too ~"
At this moment, Wang Yanling's daughter, Wang Rou, came out and said loudly.
