Chapter 245 Are you worthy?
Chapter 245 Are you worthy?
"Are you worthy?" Yi Qianhuan looked at Helian Xiujin and asked back, as if he had heard a huge joke.
Helian Xiujin felt as if his throat was being pinched, and a strong sense of dissatisfaction came over him, almost angering him to death.
He would rather see Yi Qianhuan challenge him, and it would be best if he didn't believe in the power of the lie detector, so that he could slap Yi Qianhuan in the face.
Unexpectedly, Yi Qianhuan actually believed him and even guided Liu Wu to tell the truth.
Because of the lie detector, he couldn't refute Yi Qianhuan and was so angry that he almost choked.
"Yi Qianhuan, remember this, I will never let go of what happened today." After saying this, Helian Xiujin took off the polygraph on Liu Wu's head and wanted to leave.
But Helian Xiu Jin was stopped before he could even walk out of the interrogation room.
Looking at Qin Lang standing in front of him, Helian Xiujin suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart: "What does this mean?"
"The Emperor has ordered that the Crown Prince bring a polygraph to assist in the investigation. It just so happens that the Beifusi has accumulated a lot of cases over the years and needs help to solve them. I would like to trouble the Crown Prince to stay for a while and solve all the cases." Ji Chilian's voice sounded slowly behind Helian Xiujin.
Helian Xiujin turned around and saw Ji Chilian smiling like a Buddha. He immediately had a strong bad feeling in his heart: "How long is a period of time?"
"There are only 139 cases left to be solved in the Beifusi. Once the prince has solved these cases, we will naturally send him away." Ji Chilian winked at Qin Lang.
Qin Lang had long been fed up with Helian Xiujin's bullying, so he found the right opportunity to catch Helian Xiujin: "Polygraphs are rare, and we Jinyiwei are clumsy and don't know how to use them. We have to ask the prince to interrogate these prisoners in person."
Helian Xiujin struggled: "Then you have to give me a chance to rest. I can't keep interrogating the prisoners day and night!"
"The emperor has assigned this task to the prince, so of course he must complete it as soon as possible. Otherwise, when the emperor blames us in the end, we subordinates won't be able to bear the blame." Qin Lang forcibly pulled Helian Xiu Jin out.
Liu Wu was also taken away by the Embroidered Uniform Guards.
"I thought the Governor was planning not to take any action." Yi Qianhuan guessed that with Ji Chilian's personality, she would never tolerate Helian Xiujing taking advantage of the situation.
"It is all thanks to the Crown Prince's wife who came and dampened the Crown Prince's spirit that this gave me the opportunity to take action." Ji Chilian said this as a matter of course, making people who didn't know him think that he really owed Yi Qianhuan a favor.
Yi Qianhuan was unmoved.
Who is Ji Chilian? As long as he wants, even ten Helian Xiujins are not enough to compare with him.
The reason he didn't take action just now was simply because he hadn't seen enough of the show.
"Sir Governor, I came here today because of Grandma Zhang." Yi Qianhuan told Ji Chilian about his encounter with Lin Wanyue today.
"It seems that Helian Ziyu is really unscrupulous in order to obtain the position of national god." Seeing Yi Qianhuan's eyes full of expectations, Ji Chilian cleared his throat and said, "I don't know much about this Zhang Po Po. I only know that she has a good relationship with Gui Yinzi. In other words, Zhang Po Po is Gui Yinzi's mouthpiece. When Gui Yinzi doesn't want to show his true face, it is Zhang Po Po who communicates with outsiders on his behalf."
"So, Granny Zhang stayed with Helian Ziyu only after getting Gui Yinzi's permission." Yi Qianhuan pondered for a moment, "In this case, there should be other forces behind Helian Ziyu to support him."
"Helian Ziyu is not simple. Not to mention other things, the polygraph today is definitely not ordinary. This governor has never heard of such a thing before." Ji Chilian's eyes froze slightly.
"No wonder the governor didn't stop Helian Xiujin when he was being so unruly here just now. It turned out that he wanted to see clearly whether the lie detector was real or fake." Seeing that Ji Chilian did not deny it, Yi Qianhuan asked again: "What do you think of this lie detector, governor?"
"Although I don't know the principle, it is indeed useful." Ji Chilian gave a pertinent answer.
"Once this thing becomes popular, I'm afraid the status of the Beifusi will be greatly threatened." While Yi Qianhuan was speaking, he was observing Ji Chilian's reaction.
If Bei Yunting wanted to test whether the polygraph could solve the case, he could have asked Helian Xiujing to do it secretly instead of coming to the Beifusi with great fanfare.
Such behavior, ostensibly to test the function of the polygraph, is actually a form of suppression of the Beifusi in another sense.
In the past, people only heard that the emperor valued Ji Chilian, but after several contacts, Yi Qianhuan discovered that Bei Yunting not only valued Ji Chilian, but also tested and distrusted him.
"Helian Xiujin alone cannot threaten the Beifusi. However, this governor heard that in addition to the prince of Pingyang Marquis's Mansion, the Minister of Rites Shen Yaosi is also involved in this matter." Ji Chilian had just finished speaking when he saw Qin Lang walk into the interrogation room.
Yi Qianhuan heard the footsteps and turned to look behind him, just in time to see Qin Lang bowing.
"Your Excellency the Governor, Lord Shen just came and took away the Prince of Pingyang Marquis's Mansion." Qin Lang's face did not look good.
"Did Master Shen say anything before he left?" Seeing Qin Lang seemed to be hesitant to speak, Ji Chilian said slowly, "Report the truth."
Qin Lang lowered his head, not daring to look into Ji Chilian's eyes: "Report to the Governor, before leaving, Lord Shen said that he hoped the Governor would not bully others. If he is too arrogant, when the situation changes in the future, the Governor will definitely suffer."
"Lord Governor, I remember that Young Lord Shen Yaosi is your nominal elder brother, right?" Yi Qianhuan keenly smelled a hint of gossip.
It is no secret that Ji Chilian is the adopted son of Prime Minister Shen Xiang.
However, she had heard that Ji Chilian changed his surname after he had a falling out with the Shen family when he entered the palace as a eunuch, but she was not clear about what exactly happened between the Shen family and Ji Chilian.
But judging from what Shen Yaosi just said, it is not difficult to guess that this young Lord Shen does not like Ji Chilian very much.
"Nominal matters don't count." Ji Chilian lowered her eyes to hide the coldness that flashed across her eyes, "Qin Lang, go and draft a memorial to sue Shen Yaosi, saying that he disobeyed the emperor's order and took the polygraph away without authorization."
Seeing Qin Lang agreed and left the room, Yi Qianhuan clearly realized that the relationship between Ji Chilian and the Shen family was probably worse than she had imagined.
However, this is Ji Chilian's family affair after all, and Yi Qianhuan has no intention of interfering.
Ji Chilian casually threw this little episode aside, and changed the subject and asked, "Comparing with the polygraph, I think the Crown Prince's wife is more likely to be a threat to our Northern Fusi. Crown Prince's wife, you have never met Liu Wu before, how do you know that there is another hidden story in the case of Liu Wu and Zhang?"
