Chapter 689: The house was raided late at night, catching the empress off guard.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

The dull knock on the door resounded through the empty street, and the vermilion door was opened by the servant in the mansion, only to be greeted by swords and swords.

A group of swordsmen dressed in black rushed in. A servant stepped forward to stop them, but was knocked down with a knife.

"You...who are you?"

"This is the residence of Mr. Shi, the Minister of Rites, at the foot of the imperial city. Have you eaten the courage of a bear and a leopard?"

"Somebody come!"

Sharp shouts rang out one after another, breaking the tranquility of the imperial city. More than a hundred people in the Shi Mansion were all captured in just half a stick of incense. When the imperial army arrived, they looked at the corpses scattered in the courtyard. , the captain who led the team couldn't help but lose control.

The residence of a dignified third-rank official in the imperial court was ransacked?

"Who...are you?"

A group of forbidden troops rushed in and surrounded Ning Fan and his entourage, as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

"This is the residence of Master Shi, the Minister of Rites. Do you know the consequences of doing this?"

"Quickly put down your weapon and capture him without any help!\

,"Ning Fan looked at the solemn faces and couldn't help but chuckled: "You don't need to be nervous, Phoenix Station is handling the case."

"Phoenix Tower!"

The captain of the imperial army couldn't help but be shocked when he heard the name of Phoenix Tower. In recent days, Phoenix Tower's reputation in Beijing has been soaring.

I heard that even the government offices have to respect them.

"I am following His Majesty's secret order to arrest Shi Chong's family, who are collaborators with the enemy and treason."

"Now that you are here, you can do me a favor and surround Shi Mansion. No one can enter or leave!"

As soon as Ning Fan finished speaking, the captain of the imperial army seemed to be restrained and subconsciously saluted: "No!"

"Boss!"

"Are we going to cause a scene?"

"No problem!"

Seeing Ning Fan's calm and calm expression, Mu Shao, Qin Hei and others just breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the voice like the living King of Hell sounded again: "They don't know about my fake edict. , there won’t be any big chaos for the time being.”

"What!!"

Qin Hei: "???"

Mu Shao: "???"

A group of people from the Phoenix stage arrested the head: "???"

The captain of the Forbidden Army was just about to go down and surround Shi Mansion, but when he heard the subtle voice behind him, he trembled all over, turned around suddenly, and looked at Ning Fan with a dull look on his face: "Fake imperial edict?"

"It's a big deal now. He heard about my official falsely passing on the imperial edict."

Ning Fan spread his hands helplessly, but Qin Bai and others beside him were speechless, and their foreheads were covered with dense beads of sweat.

"Boss, do you want to..."

Mu Shao made a gesture of wiping his neck, but Ning Fan shook his head with a look of shame on his face: "It's not like... they are all my colleagues, it's not a big problem."

"Forehead!"

"Did that old guy Shi Chong catch him?"

"Yes!" Mu Shao nodded and said softly: "I was holding my concubine while fighting fiercely, but our people came in and carried her out."

"Too much."

"Serious criticism. Next time you encounter a situation like this when your home is raided, remember to wait for others to finish the work first."

"yes!"

…

"Tap tap tap!"

Rapid footsteps sounded, and a female official entered His Majesty the Emperor's palace. Just as Mu Qingcheng fell asleep, she heard a voice coming from outside the door.

"Your Majesty, the Commander-in-Chief of the Forbidden Army wishes to see you."

"oh?"

Mu Qingcheng frowned slightly. The duties of the imperial army were very clear. They were to surround the imperial city and patrol the palace. Now that they came to disturb Sheng'an in the middle of the night, there must be something extremely important.

Putting on a coat, Mu Qingcheng came to the front hall and saw a burly figure kneeling in the hall.

"What happened?"

"Your Majesty!" The commander of the imperial army said softly with a very deep expression: "Half an hour ago, Shen Yu, the leader of the Phoenix Tower, led people to raid the residence of Mr. Shi, the Minister of Rites. There were more than a hundred people in Shi's residence, and there were only a few key personnel. alive."

"What did you say!"

Mu Qingcheng's expression was extremely ugly. That bastard Shen Yu came back from the front line without saying a word, and gave him such a big surprise in the middle of the night?

The Minister of Rites is an important member of the imperial court, far more than Jingzhao Shaoyin, but now he doesn't kill people, but just raids his house?

Did Shen Yu eat up his ambition?

"Shen Yu...where are you now?"

"Back to Your Majesty, Lord Shen has been brought back to the palace and is now waiting outside the palace."

"Let him in!"

"yes!"

Mu Qingcheng took a deep breath, trying to calm down her almost collapsed emotions, and saw a slender figure walking into the hall with a mean smile on his face.

"My lord, Shen Yu, pays homage to Your Majesty."

Ning Fan did not kneel down, but slightly cupped his hands and made a bow.

"Shen Yu!"

"Do you know your guilt!!"

Mu Qingcheng slammed the table, but Shen Yu seemed to have turned a deaf ear. The smile on her face faded slightly and she looked directly at Mu Qingcheng calmly: "Your Majesty, what crime did you commit?"

"You still dare to quibble?"

"Somebody come!"

"exist!"

"Take Shen Yu down to me and kill him immediately!"

"promise!"

Several big and thick men dragged Ning Fan directly towards the outside of the hall. Ning Fan did not resist and just let them drag him towards the outside of the hall. Mu Qingcheng was immediately speechless.

Is this bastard really not afraid of death?

"Wait!"

Helpless, it failed to establish power, but it made it difficult to end. You can't really chop off this bastard's head, right?

"Shen Yu, I'll give you a chance to defend yourself!"

"Why did you search the house in the middle of the night, and search the house of the Minister of Rites?"

Ning Fan calmly straightened his clothes, cleared his throat, and said: "Your Majesty, Shi Chong, the Minister of Rites, colluded with Dayan, treasoned, and passed on the confidential secrets of Dali to Dayan several times."

"Your Majesty, just deal with it strictly according to the law."

"Shi Chong treasoned?"

Looking at Mu Qingcheng's unbelievable expression, Ning Fan just smiled and took out a stack of envelopes and confessions from his sleeves, looked at the Empress and said: "Your Majesty, as the saying goes, you can know a person's face but not his heart. Shi Chong is hiding deep enough and usually doesn't show any flaws. From the transmission of information to the monitoring of officials, all are done by his subordinates. "

"So, it is reasonable that Your Majesty did not notice it."

"He...he also monitors officials?"

Mu Qingcheng looked at the letters in front of him, his face became more and more ugly, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Good kill, such a traitor should be killed with all his nine clans."

"I obey your order!"

Ning Fan bowed respectfully, and then shouted to the outside of the hall: "Your Majesty has ordered that Shi Chong leaked military secrets, colluded with the enemy and betrayed the country, and his nine clans should be killed!"

"You..."

Mu Qingcheng was speechless. Did this bastard let me have no taboos?

Don't you have the slightest respect for the imperial power?

"Shen Yu, even if Shi Chong really colluded with the enemy and betrayed the country, who gave you the power to raid the mansion of an important official of the court?"

"Your Majesty, all my power belongs to the court, and it is the power given to me by the Dali Law!"
