After explaining everything clearly, Wen Jingchi just nodded calmly, and didn't seem surprised by what he said.
This shocked Zheng Fuyin a little. He clearly said that Wen Jingchi didn't know anything about it, so why wasn't he surprised?
Looking into his black eyes, Zheng Fuyin couldn't figure out what was going on.
He ordered Zheng Fuyin to be taken away, and Wen Jingchi personally led the troops to surround the Huaiyang Marquis Mansion.
Upon learning that his mansion was surrounded, the Marquis of Huaiyang came out angrily to argue.
"What does your Highness mean by this? Why are you stationing troops outside my Huaiyang Marquis's residence for no reason? Have I violated any law?"
The Marquis of Huaiyang held his head high and chest puffed out, looking very righteous.
"Marquis Huaiyang, you should know better than me what you have done, yet you actually ask me, you are the mastermind behind the trafficking of those children, right? That Marquis refers to you, Marquis Huaiyang!"
"What nonsense!"
Huaiyang Hou was immediately furious: "Wen Jingchi, I am old after all, and you should respectfully address me as uncle based on our seniority and relationship. I never thought you would dare to slander me like this. I want to see the emperor."
"In other words, all words are not enough. You have to show me the evidence before you tell me this. Otherwise, I will tell the emperor and let him make the decision for me!"
The Marquis of Huaiyang pointed at Wen Jingchi angrily and questioned him loudly, and was about to rush out.
"Marquis Huaiyang, how long are you going to keep quibbling? Zheng has already testified against you. Now that we have the evidence, what else do you have to quibble about?"
Wen Jingchi did not confront him head-on, but tried to deceive him into telling the whole story.
The Marquis of Huaiyang was extremely cunning, and no matter how he was asked, he remained completely silent.
Finally, he took out a gold medal from his arms and sneered arrogantly.
"This gold medal was given to my ancestors by the late emperor. With this gold medal, I can be free from the control of any of you. If it is proven that I am guilty, I will die for it. If I am not guilty, I will not admit it. I will go to see the emperor now!"
"It's really ridiculous that I, a dignified marquis, could be tarnished by you without any evidence.
If the words of a prefect can be used as evidence, then I can also forge it to prove that you are guilty, or even that the emperor is guilty..."
While shouting angrily, he strode out.
Wen Jingchi blocked his way and didn't allow him to take even a single step forward.
At this time, some killers came out from the side. They were all Huaiyang Hou's men, and the two sides were in a stalemate for a while.
Wen Jingchi appeared calm on the surface, but he was a little anxious inside.
These evidences were indeed not enough to threaten Marquis Huaiyang. He had originally planned to search, but now that he had taken out the gold medal, he was in a dilemma.
At this moment, a triumphant laugh was suddenly heard, and the person who came was Chu Weiyue.
Chu Weiyue came up to Huaiyang Hou arrogantly, pointed at his nose and shouted at him.
"Marquis Huaiyang, you want evidence, right? You are so bold that you dared to forge counterfeit money privately. I have already found the thief's location. If you don't believe me, I will take you there right now! Whether you are guilty or not, all the people can testify."
She deliberately took a few steps outside, where there were many people watching the fun.
Originally, Marquis Huaiyang wanted to borrow the gold medal to go to the emperor and cover up the matter, but now he has to continue fighting with them.
Because of the good things Chu Weiyue has done during this period, he has been highly praised by the people.
"Why, the people all asked you to go, why don't you dare to go? Since you are innocent, then follow me!"
Chu Weiyue's eyes were full of pride and arrogance, and besides indifference, there was also a bit of cunning in his eyes.
He blinked at Wen Jingchi like an eye, and the two immediately cooperated with each other.
In the end, Marquis Huaiyang was in a difficult situation and had no choice but to agree to go with the two of them to check it out.
Wen Jingchi and Chu Weiyue walked in front, and he walked behind with his men, somewhat hesitant.
The place where he made counterfeit money was very hidden and would not be discovered. Maybe they were just being mysterious.
They walked in front and the people followed behind.
After walking for half an hour, we finally arrived at a remote house.
When the door was pushed open and he saw the person kneeling and tied up inside, Marquis Huaiyang almost fainted on the spot.
But after all, he was a man who had seen big scenes and experienced many storms, so he quickly stabilized his position.
"Marquis Huaiyang, do you have anything to say now? Here is the evidence! They have all written confessions, and you are the mastermind behind it. And this housekeeper, you won't say you don't know him, right?"
Chu Weiyue laughed coldly and kicked one of them to the ground.
This person was indeed the steward of Marquis Huaiyang, and many people knew it.
This housekeeper has a very distinctive appearance, with a big black mole between his eyebrows.
"this……"
Marquis Huaiyang was thrown into disarray for a moment and never dreamed that they could actually find the thieves' hideout.
Since the butler was there, even if he wanted to deny it, it was too late.
There was a moment of panic in his eyes, but soon he burst into laughter.
"I admit that your testimony is true, but I can't make counterfeit money by myself. Chu Weiyue's father is also involved. Otherwise, how could a girl like her find the den? It's obvious that you are trying to shirk responsibility..."
"What nonsense!"
Chu Weiyue ran over angrily and kicked Huaiyang Hou hard.
Before he could fight back, he slapped him in the face again.
"You're about to die, and you still want to drag someone down with you. If it was really my father who did it, how could I possibly tell anyone about it!"
"Your father is indeed involved in this matter. I will meet the emperor now and tell him the truth..."
Huaiyang Hou turned around and fled to the side without hesitation. The other killers immediately stood in front of Wen Jingchi and others, trying to cover his escape.
Wen Jingchi had already anticipated this, so he cut off the Marquis of Huaiyang's escape route and took him to meet the emperor.
When he came before the emperor, he knelt on the ground and did not deny his guilt at all, but he still dragged Chu Weiyue's father to be the scapegoat.
Chu Weiyue knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, my father and my brother are loyal and will never despise the imperial power and do such a thing as counterfeiting money. In addition to privately counterfeiting money, the Marquis of Huaiyang also imprisoned a beautiful woman in a secret room. If I am not mistaken, the beautiful woman is still in his house..."
Hearing this, the emperor's expression changed instantly.
"Someone, quickly rob the Huaiyang Marquis's Mansion for me!"
Upon receiving the order, one of his generals led his troops and rushed to the Huaiyang Marquis Mansion as soon as possible.
We checked everything as quickly as possible.
There are countless gold, silver and treasures, which are simply not something that could be obtained with the salary of Huaiyang Hou alone.
Although he has properties under his name, according to the accounts, it is impossible for him to have so much money.
A small hole was found in the bedroom of Marquis Huaiyang. After crawling in, there were indeed more than a dozen imprisoned beauties and men!
