Xia Chujian looked at Su Buyan again and asked curiously, "Master Su, does this Rong Zhongruo have a very important background?"
Su Buyan frowned and said, "Rong Zhongruo is Rong's distant cousin."
"Although the Rong family is only an earl, it is also the most powerful family under the four dukes."
"The oldest aunt of the Rong family married into the Li family."
"Now it is the old Duchess of Li."
Quan Yuxun frowned and said, "The Duchess of Li, Rong Chunqiu? That's not a simple person."
"Chu Jian, did you really kill Rong Zhongruo?"
Xia Chujian was dizzy by the series of family trees of wealthy families.
She rubbed her forehead and said, "Well, I brought his body back. Anyway, I have evidence that he attacked me first. I was just defending myself."
"Besides, this is a mission assigned to us by the military. If he comes in and interferes, isn't that a violation of military discipline?"
Xia Chujian said so much, but did not mention a lot of key information.
Quan Yuxun also heard it, but he didn't intend to ask any further questions.
That should be a military secret. As the chief legal adviser of the Senate, it would be no good for him to know more.
He smiled and said, "If Rong Zhong is considered a high-ranking military official, Marshal Huo should be able to help with his affairs. I won't get involved."
"I can try other things. For example, you said that Chu Qingchen and his fellow noble students deliberately missed the opportunity to fight, and even deliberately let his marines fall into danger. Do you have any evidence?"
Xia Chujian thought about it and secretly glanced at Huo Yushen, just wanting to know if she could say it.
Huo Yushen didn't look at her directly, but he had already caught her gaze from the corner of his eye.
Huo Yushen still spoke in that cold tone, saying calmly, "Lieutenant Xia may have to go to court-martial. It wouldn't hurt to talk to Chief Quan first."
Xia Chujian's fingers unconsciously tightened, and he frowned and said, "...Why should I go to court-martial? It's clearly their fault! I have the surveillance video from their airship!"
When she said that, Quan Yuxun smiled and said, "Is the video original? It hasn't been edited or modified, right?"
Xia Chujian said angrily, "Of course not! Am I the kind of person who would tamper with the video?!"
"Besides, I don't have such advanced technical skills... I'm not a software guru!"
In fact, she had Qilu on her side, so it would be easy for her to modify or edit the video, but she never thought of doing so.
She has her own pride and disdains to do such a frame-up.
At most, let Qilu record more videos privately and let these people expose themselves.
Quan Yuxun said, "As long as the video is an original record, then it's fine. I guarantee you won't have to go to court-martial."
Like civil and criminal cases, military cases also require sufficient evidence before they can be brought to a military court.
As long as Xia Chujian has evidence to prove what Chu Qingchen and his group had done, then the charges of "suspected killing of Star Marines, seizing spoils, and trading with the enemy" will be on Chu Qingchen and his group, not hers.
Xia Chujian confidently said, "Later, they tried to kill me to silence me. You've all seen the videos. They were the first to start!"
"At that time, Lu Luyu even killed Zhuo Hanchen to silence him!"
"Zhuo Hanchen is the one who poisoned my airship."
"By the way, Zhuo Hanchen is the Zhuo family member whose title was stripped not long ago. However, it is said that he did not have to be executed because he just passed the fifth generation of mourning. It seems that his father was executed."
Quan Yuxun nodded: "Don't worry about this person, he deserves to die."
"Chu Qingchen, Ji Nabi, and Lu Luyu all attacked you proactively, and you have evidence. You don't have to go to a military court for their deaths."
"It's just that there's one more person you didn't mention."
Quan Yuxun is indeed a thoughtful person.
He heard that the Chu Qingchen five-member group that Xia Chujian had mentioned before included Hui Zhifeng.
But when talking about their fate later, Hui Zhifeng was not mentioned.
Xia Chujian said matter-of-factly, "He started out as a team with Chu Qingchen and the others, but later discovered that Chu Qingchen seemed to have other contacts, so he fell out with them."
"He helped me and saved my life when Rong Zhongruo attacked me, but he was killed by Rong Zhongruo..."
"I also have the video of Rong Zhongruo attacking Hui Zhifeng."
Quan Yuxun nodded and asked, unraveling the mystery: "You said Zhuo Hanchen poisoned so many people, and then was killed by Lu Luyu. But you killed Chu Qingchen and the others before boarding the airship. How did you get the antidote?"
"I thought you were going to get the antidote and then kill these people."
"If there is an antidote found from them, the chain of evidence will be more complete."
Xia Chujian felt a little guilty for no reason.
But he managed to keep it together and said, "The situation was like this. I first met Chu Qingchen and the others outside the airship, and I couldn't contact them from inside. So I just knew something had probably happened, but I didn't know what it was."
“So I killed them right outside. After I went in, I found out that my men had been poisoned.”
Quan Yuxun raised an eyebrow: "Then what? What kind of poison did they get? How did you detoxify them?"
Quan Yuxun thought that the poison that Chu Qingchen and others spent so much effort to inflict must be extraordinary.
He originally thought that Xia Chujian broke up with Chu Qingchen and the others because of these people, and asked them for the antidote, so the other party continued to kill people to silence them, and then Xia Chujian killed them.
Now it seems that it is not the case?
