The entire lobby was silent.
Everyone looked at Zhao Lin in disbelief.
What does he mean?
Want to kill everyone?
Is he crazy?
Zhao Lin saw that they all had the same expression, so he smiled and said, "Don't worry, it won't hurt."
Is this a question of whether it hurts or not?
Even His Majesty the Emperor cannot kill all the officials in the Governor's Office.
No matter how big a mistake they made.
When a rabbit dies, the fox mourns.
What if all the officials in the governor's office were killed?
Who would dare to serve the emperor in the future?
Same thing.
If Zhao Lin really dared to do this.
His career was over.
No, his life is over.
The emperor will definitely kill him to appease the anger of the officials.
No official wants to have such a person who does not follow the rules.
This is deadly stuff.
Fu Wenqi desperately winked at Zhao Lin.
Zhao Lin remained unmoved and said, "Take them all away, separate them, and interrogate them one by one."
The bailiffs were about to take all these people away.
Zhao Lin suddenly said, "By the way, the Imperial Envoy has uncovered quite a few of my crimes these days, right? Bring them over for us to see."
Liu Zhengyan angrily shouted, "Don't even think about it! This is a secret document submitted to His Majesty by me. If you dare to read it privately, you are offending His Majesty and committing the heinous crime of rebellion. Your entire family will be killed."
Zhao Lin smiled and said, "Why bother, Lord Liu? Do you really think Prince Yu and the others asked you to come here to investigate me?"
"What else?" Liu Zhengyan said coldly.
Zhao Lin sighed, "They want you to kill me."
Liu Zhengyan was puzzled.
Zhao Lin said, "If I kill you, the Emperor will surely execute me. Isn't this asking you to kill me? It's pitiful. You and Prince Yu are brothers-in-law, yet he treats you like this."
Liu Zhengyan sneered and said, "Don't sow discord. Prince Yu is not that kind of person."
"He's not that kind of person, but there are some who are." Zhao Lin looked down at Liu Zhengyan. "Zhao Chenhan... forget it. Why are you saying so much? Anyway, I'm telling you the truth. Even if I don't kill you, you won't be able to return to the capital alive. That's it. Take everyone away and dismiss the court."
Everyone was taken away.
After the bailiffs had all left, Fu Wenqi quickly said to Zhao Lin, "You were just trying to scare them, right?"
Gong Qiubai and the others also looked at Zhao Lin.
This person is so bold, they dare not continue.
It will kill people.
Zhao Lin smiled and said, "Don't worry, big brother. I'm not that stupid."
"That's good." Fu Wenqi breathed a sigh of relief.
Then Zhao Lin said, "Even if we want to kill them, we will present clear evidence so that they will die with a clear conscience."
Fu Wenqi almost fell down: "Are you still going to kill them?"
Zhao Lin said in a deep voice, "They are definitely colluding with the bandits. Once I find the evidence, it will be their death. Isn't that right, Lord Feng?"
Zhao Lin suddenly turned to look at Feng Siyuan. Feng Siyuan was in a trance and was stunned for a long time before he reacted: "Ah? Yes, yes, the governor is right."
Zhao Lin said, "Lord Feng is familiar with them. Lord Feng will have to take care of this matter."
"It's my duty, it's my duty." Feng Siyuan said repeatedly.
"No, absolutely not."
Fu Wenqi tried to dissuade him, "Killing all the officials in an entire government office is unprecedented in history. If you really do that, the officials in the court will never tolerate you."
Zhao Lin smiled and said, "Don't worry, everyone. Even if I want to kill him, I will ask His Majesty for permission. I won't act on my own."
"That's good."
Fu Wenqi took a deep breath.
This brother-in-law is good in every way except that he is too reckless and doesn't know some of the rules of officialdom. I need to find an opportunity to have a good talk with him.
After leaving the governor's office, Feng Siyuan wiped the sweat from his forehead and his face immediately became gloomy.
Ma Ershui was actually arrested, and Zhao Lin discovered the relationship between him and Feng Siyuan.
This was a bolt from the blue for Feng Siyuan.
Once Ma Ershui can't stand Zhao Lin's threat and reveals Feng Siyuan, everything will be over.
So, one of Zhao Lin or Ma Ershui must die!
Who to die?
How to kill?
Feng Siyuan returned home with a gloomy face. After thinking for a moment, he first wrote a letter to Zhao Chenhan by carrier pigeon, and then called his confidant Feng Tao to whisper a few instructions.
Feng Tao put on makeup and went out of the house at night, but as soon as he arrived at a small alley, he was put in a sack and kidnapped.
When the sack was taken off his head, Feng Tao's eyes went dark.
Zhao Lin sat on the armchair and asked, "Why are you putting on makeup and dressing up so late at night?"
Just as Feng Tao was about to speak, Zhao Lin said, "You only have one chance. If you can't give me a satisfactory answer, you know the consequences."
Feng Tao said carefully, "In reply to your Excellency's words, I will go to the brothel."
"Buried."
Zhao Lin said two words and stood up to leave.
Someone immediately came up and dragged Feng Tao away.
Feng Tao cried out in frustration, "Please spare me! Sir, please spare me! It's not illegal to go to a brothel. We can't do this..."
Zhao Lin had already disappeared. One of the men who had dragged Feng Tao punched him hard, causing his mouth to bleed, and he was unable to finish what he was going to say.
Seeing himself being dragged to the edge of a dug pit, and the other party really wanting to bury him, Feng Tao was terrified and quickly begged, "I confess, I confess everything, don't bury me..."
When Feng Tao came to Zhao Lin again, he was terrified and cried out, "Sir, I confess everything. Master... Feng Siyuan asked me to find someone to kill Ma Ershui."
"There is indeed a connection."
Fu Wenqi was trying to persuade Zhao Lin not to be so radical when he heard Feng Tao say this. He was surprised and asked, "Could it be that Ma Ershui's last name is really Feng?"
