Now is not the time to investigate responsibility. Xu Yi knows what to do next.

Xu Jia was worried: "Dad, Wei fuming helped to find the assassin. He knows it very well. If he can't bear the torture and recruit everything, we'll be finished!"

Xu Yizhi is still meditating.

Xu Jia bit his teeth and said, "why don't we kill Wei fuming before he confesses?"

Xu Yizhi said: "many people know Wei fuming's relationship with you. If Wei fuming dies at this time, everyone will doubt you. At that time, you'll be lying to yourself."

"But if I don't kill Wei fuming, Wei fuming will give me up."

"Then let him give you up."

Xu Jia was stunned: "ah?"

Xu Yizhi said slowly, "even if Wei fuming gave you up, as long as you insist that you were framed, Dali Temple dare not do anything to you."

He paused and then said, "while everyone is now focusing on Wei fuming, you should quickly get rid of Wei Chen."

He can't wait to avenge his sister.

Dali temple.

Fu Qi personally interrogated pan Meng and Wei fuming. They first refused to admit it. After some torture, their psychological defense line completely collapsed and cried out everything they knew.

Pan Meng pushed everything to Wei fuming.

"My Lord, I'm just a trader. Although the house is under my name, it actually belongs to Wei fuming. I've never stepped into the house!"

Wei fuming pushed the matter to Xu Jia.

"Xu Jia ordered me to do this! He asked me to find a skilled assassin, but I didn't know who to assassinate. I was his disciple. Naturally, I had to do what he asked me to do. I didn't dare to ask more and did it according to his instructions. After I found the assassin, I recommended the assassin to Xu Jia. I don't know anything after that. "

Fu Qi asked, "what evidence do you have to prove that what you said is true?"

Wei fuming has no evidence.

He found the assassin at the beginning, but Xu Jia didn't let him intervene in the matter after that. In fact, he didn't know much.

Fu Qi asked Wei fuming and pan Meng to sign the confession, and then took the confession into the palace to meet the son of heaven.

Sima Yan looked at the two confessions in front of him and said, "only confessions are not enough."

Fu Qi said, "I have searched the residences of Pan Meng and Wei fuming and found no evidence. I interrogated the people around them one by one. Those people can only prove that Wei fuming had contacts with Xu Jia, but they can't prove that Xu Jia bought a murderer to assassinate the prince."

He paused and said, "I suggest that Xu Jia be arrested directly. As long as he is interrogated strictly, he will be able to pry the truth out of his mouth."

Sima wearily said, "if it's someone else, you'll catch him, but Xu Jia can't. You can't move him until there is conclusive evidence."

"Why?"

"Because he is Xu Yizhi's son."

Fu Qi was unconvinced: "what about Xu Yizhi's son? If you dare to buy and assassinate the crown prince, you deserve to die! "

Sima Fan said slowly, "if only one or two people's one-sided words could convict, I could have let Xu Yizhi die a thousand times, but I can't. Xu Yizhi's students are all over the government and the public. Even I can't easily touch him."

Sima fan hasn't moved Xu Yizhi before.

He once arrested Xu Yizhi on the charge of forming a party for personal gain. As a result, early the next morning, all civil servants gathered in front of the Zhaoyang hall and knelt down to plead for Xu Yizhi.

As long as the emperor doesn't let people go, those civil servants won't get up for a day.

This is obviously forcing the emperor to release people.

Sima fan was unwilling to give in. The two sides held a stalemate for two days, which led to the suspension of all departments in the DPRK and China in these two days. All official documents were piled up in the corner and no one to deal with them.

At that time, there were floods in two places in the south, and the people were still waiting for disaster funds to save their lives.

If you want to allocate funds, you must pass the pass of the Ministry of household, but everyone in the Ministry of household kneels in front of the Zhaoyang hall.

Saving people is like fighting a fire. If you delay one more day, you will sacrifice countless lives in vain.

Sima is tired of being forced and can only agree to release people.

In this way, Xu Yizhi was released unharmed. The civil servants were elated and returned to their posts to continue their work.

Sima fan, as the son of heaven, even had to make an apology to Xu Yizhi.

So far, Sima fan can't forget his humiliation when he bowed to Xu Yizhi.

Obviously, he is the king of a country, but the civil servants under his hands don't listen to him. His name is like an empty shell and useless.

After that, Sima fan began to be cautious.

Without full confidence, he would not easily attack Xu Yizhi.

Fu Qi was young and full of vigor. He blurted out, "then we can let Xu Jia go so easily!"

The tone of this is a little blunt.

Xie Miao said, "please speak carefully, Shizi."

Fu Qi returned to his senses and quickly apologized: "Your Majesty, I was offended by Wei Chen."

Even if he is not convinced in his heart, he can't be angry with the emperor. The emperor is a 95 year old. Can he blame him casually.

Sima fan didn't care much about it. He said calmly, "I know what you're thinking, but it's not the time yet. Wait“

Fu Qi asked, "when will we wait?"

"At least wait until Jiang Shuan enters Beijing."

Speaking of this, Sima fan turned to Xie Miao and asked.

"The letter to Jiang Shuan has been posted for more than ten days. Hasn't he arrived in Bianjing yet?"

Xie Miao replied respectfully, "it's a long way from Jiuqu county to Bianjing. It may take more time."

"Send someone to stare at the city gates. As long as you see Jiang Shuan coming, you will bring him to the palace immediately."

"Here."

After Wei fuming was arrested, Xu Jia had trouble sleeping and eating. He was afraid that he would be confessed.

But he waited left and right, but he couldn't wait for the officers and soldiers to come to the door.

It was as if nothing had happened.

Xu Jia was puzzled. He ran to ask his father.

"Obviously they have caught Wei fuming. Why don't they catch me?"

Xu Yizhi had expected this for a long time. While placing pieces on the chessboard, he said without illness: "even if they catch you with Wei fuming's one-sided words, they can't convict you. If they want to extort a confession from you by torture, my students will jointly write a letter to intercede for you. The emperor will not make enemies with the civil servants in the court for the sake of just you. "

This is a game between kings and ministers.

Xu Yizhi, who has been in officialdom for decades, knows the way well.

"The emperor wants to win, but there are too few pieces in his hand. From the beginning, he was doomed to lose."
