Chapter 62 You Let Go of This PalaceChapter 420: Rotten to the Core

Li Chen's words completely broke Ge Pingyi.

He couldn't imagine what would happen to his wife and daughter if they fell into the hands of the Dongchang. It would be worse than death.

So he couldn't care about anything else anymore, kneeling on the ground and crying out: "Please, Your Highness, spare my family! They are innocent, I will say everything!"

Seeing Qian Shiyan being kicked to the ground by Li Chen, his heart pounded with fear. Driven by anger and desperation, he struggled to his feet and surprisingly drew out a waist knife from a nearby jailer, lunging at Ge Pingyi.

"You vicious dog, even at the brink of death you still want to bite people"

Qian Shiyan's eyes were fierce and his expression was hideous. This knife went straight for Ge Pingyi's throat, with the intention of killing him with one strike.

Qian Shiyan had really gone all out, but the moment he lunged at Ge Pingyi, San Bao simply grabbed his sword with his bare hands.

His eyes widened in disbelief as he watched Sanbao's meaty palm grip the blade of his steel knife, twisting it into a knot. Qian Shiyan's heart skipped a beat.

He never would have imagined that there were actually martial arts in this world that could disarm someone with bare hands and remain unharmed.

And Li Chen...

He kicked Qian Shiyan right in the face.

This kick, Li Chen kicked out with anger and didn't hold back at all.

Qian Shiyan only felt that a boot in front of him was infinitely magnified, and then his vision went black instantly. His nostrils ached violently, and he felt like his head had been hit by a heavy hammer. Immediately, snot, tears, and bloodshot eyes flowed out together.

"Ah!!!"

Looking at Qian Shiyan who was lying on the ground, covering his face and screaming wildly, Li Chen's expression was extremely cold.

"Come, take Qian Shiyan's official hat and throw it into the cell next to Ge Pingyi's."

Li Chen's words fell, and the Three Treasures personally took action. With three moves and two moves, they stripped Qian Shiyan of his official robe as a Shangshu. They opened the door to the next cell, and like throwing a chick, they tossed Qian Shiyan in.

"Now you see No matter whether you speak or not, Qian Shiyan won't let you go. Tell me the truth, and I can spare your family, but if you don't, you should know what will happen." Li Chen said to Ge Pingyi, who was still dazed from the recent events.

"All of this, Qian Shiyan instigated me to do it. At first, I had some reservations because Xu Changqing is backed by His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince. I was also afraid."

And such a crudely fabricated accusation simply doesn't hold water.

"But Qian Shiyan told me that this was something the Cabinet was going to handle, and I should just focus on solving the case. Whether it was reasonable or not, whether it could withstand scrutiny didn't matter; someone would naturally step forward to take care of the aftermath."

"I dared not offend Qian Shiyan, so I agreed."

When it came to this, Ge Pingyi burst into tears and kowtowed to Li Chen: "The guilty minister knows his crimes deserve ten thousand deaths. I dare not plead for mercy, but Your Highness, please show mercy. My family members are truly innocent."

Write all of this down.

After Li Chen finished speaking, San Bao immediately had someone bring paper and pens. Ge Pingyi didn't hesitate, he knelt on the ground and wrote down all his and Qian Shiyan's sins over the years in detail.

Three full pages, densely written.

After Ge Pingyi finished writing, Li Chen took it over and glanced at it, his eyes becoming increasingly cold.

"It seems the Ministry of Justice is rotten to the core."Chapter 395 This person is crazy
