Xiao Jing immediately killed Kong Long, the son of the Minister of the dynasty, and was taken back to the Jinling Prefecture by the street patrol constable Li Shun to question him. The matter was immediately circulated and soon everyone in the capital knew about it.

Beat the drum and beat the pass, kill the powerful stick.

Zhang Ran, the prefect of Jinling, hurried back from the concubine who was raised, and went to the court to ask about the case.

When Zhang Ran learned that the deceased was Kong Long, the only son of the Minister of the dynasty, the only son of Kong Fan, Zhang Ran's face turned green. Although Xiao Jing had surrendered himself, Zhang Ran still shouted unlucky. With Kong Fan's vindictive nature, Zhang Ran's joint and several liability for controlling local public security was enough to be dismissed from office and demoted.

"I said you are really ignorant. It's okay if you beat him up, why do you have to kill him? Now, you don't even mention that you have to get in, but you will still have to implicate me. You have really killed me!"

Xiao Jing gave Zhang Ran a angrily glance and said impatiently: "Everyone is dead. What's the use of saying these? Let's get the sentence quickly. Auntie is tired."

Zhang Ran sighed and said, "You should have been acquitted in this situation. How could you kill the only son of Kong Fan, the popular man of the dynasty. Isn't Kong Fan an easy person? If I don't sentence you seriously, he will have to cut me alive. Fortunately, you surrender voluntarily, and you can at least give you a whole body in the hands of me. If you are caught by Kong Fan, then you will be worse than death. So--"

Before Zhang Ran said what he said behind him, Xiao Jing became impatient and interrupted him, "So hurry up! Just judge how you should, and aunt didn't blame you!"

"I don't blame you for being disrespectful." Zhang Ran paused, cleared his throat, and immediately pronounced the verdict.

"Since the criminal Xiao Jing confessed to the murder of Kong Long, I found out that Xiao Jing was found guilty of murder and immediately took him to the death row prison and waited for Qiu Hou to be executed."

Xiao Jing said a long-windedly and followed the yamen to the prison impatiently.

Zhang Ran was about to leave, but unexpectedly, the gate at the entrance of the yamen was suddenly smashed open, and five or six yamen runners were beaten to the point of bruising and swollen. They flew in and screamed and fell all over the floor.

"It's outrageous! Who is so bold that he dares to smash the gate of the prefect's mansion and beat the yamen runners!"

Zhang Ran's beard suddenly became so angry that she raised her beard.

Soon, the captain Li Shun rushed in with a bruised nose and swollen face, shouting: "Brother-in-law, then - the Secretary Kong Fan is here."

It turned out that Kong Fan had just returned from court, but suddenly he heard from his servants that his son Kong Long had been killed in the street and was heartbroken. He immediately ordered the arrest of the murderer Xiao Jing. After learning that Xiao Jing was taken away by Jinling Mansion, he immediately brought more than 100 personal soldiers to the government office.

Xiao Jing killed Kong Long and naturally attracted countless Jiankang people to come to the Jinling Prefecture Office to watch and listen. Zhang Ran considered the serious situation, so he closed the door to investigate the case, and blocked the people from outside the gate of the yamen.

However, the pain of Kong Fan losing his son made him crazy. Seeing that the yamen gate was closed, he mistakenly thought that Zhang Ran wanted to enforce the law impartially and sentenced Xiao Jing lightly. Tun was furious and ordered his personal soldiers to smash the gate and beat a group of yamen runners. Li Shunben wanted to come forward to explain, but Kong Fan didn't give him any chance at all, and was beaten in the face.

When Zhang Ran heard that it was the Shangshu Kong Fan who was coming, he did not dare to neglect and hurriedly sorted out his clothes and came out of the lobby to welcome him.

"It turns out that he is the Minister of Shangshu. He has lost his humble position and is far away from him and hopes to forgive his crimes."

No matter how arrogant Kong Fan's personal soldiers were, they did not dare to attack the prefect of Jinling, but they drew their swords toward each other, which scared Zhang Ran's hair to stand up.

"What does this mean by sir?"

Although Kong Fannian was nearly fifty years old, he had gray beard and hair, which was obviously caused by racking his brains to flatter Chen Shubao for a long time.

He shouted angrily: "Stop talking nonsense! I'll ask you, kill that bitch!"

If it were normal, Zhang Ran would have been dragging around the official voice, but at this moment, seeing Kong Fan's anger in his eyes was about to kill someone, he did not dare to say anything more: "I'm not hiding it. I know that the bitch was really sad after killing the son-in-law, so he immediately sentenced him to death."

Kong Fan then looked at Kong Fan and snorted coldly: "You know what you are! Can someone?"

Seeing that Kong Fan did not blame him for his dereliction of duty in public security, Zhang Ran felt relieved and said: "He has been taken into the death row, so I will wait for Qiu Hou to ask for revenge for the son."

Kong Fan nodded, saw Zhang Ran's face getting better, and said, "Leave the person to me right away!"

Zhang Ran was stunned and said, "Sir, the Xing Wen of Dali Temple has not been approved yet."

Kong Fan was immediately displeased and said, "What are you talking about? I will say hello to Dali Temple. You don't have to worry about this. If this bitch dares to kill Long'er, I will definitely cut her alive!"

Zhang Ran was immediately embarrassed: "Sir, this criminal has arrived at the government office. It may be inconsistent to ask him to him. Anyway, he is going to be executed, so why don't you wait for a few days?"

Kong Fan immediately said angrily: "Bastard! You dare to push the person you want. Don't you want the black hat on your head?"

Zhang Ran was shocked and dared not say anything more. He hurriedly said, "I dare not be humble. Please be careful. Please be careful. I will bring the prisoner to you."

Zhang Rangang ordered the yamen runners to go to the prison to mention Xiao Jing's coming out, but unexpectedly, there was another riot outside the gate of the government office. Soon, Li Shun limped and ran in with a sad face.

This time, Li Shun's face was covered with bruises and blood, and it was obvious that he was beaten again.

Zhang Ran was surprised and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"

Li Shun replied with great grievance: "Weizhi closed the gate of the yamen again. Unexpectedly, General Xiao Mohe, the General of the Cavalry, suddenly arrived. He said that he had to wait for a moment and needed to be informed before he could be released. Unexpectedly, General Xiao ordered hundreds of soldiers from the cavalry camp to smash the gate without any explanation, and even beat up dozens of our yamen runners and officials."

Li Shun said that he was already a little choked up. In just half a stick of incense, he and a group of yamen runners had been beaten twice in a row, which was quite tragic.

Zhang Ran immediately cursed: "You are very smart on weekdays, but how could you not have the eyesight today? The General of the Cavalry even allowed him to ride a horse in the palace. How dare you stop him? He would be lucky if he didn't slash you with one knife."

How could Li Shun know about this? He was afraid of being beaten by Kong Fan just now, so he followed Kong Fan's order to close the gate of the government office again to prevent anyone from coming in. He never thought that Xiao Maha would be much more cruel than Kong Fan's beating.

Kong Fanben wanted to comfort him, but when he thought that his subordinates had beaten Li Shun and other yamen runners just now, he could only pretend not to hear him.

"Where is Zhang Ran? Get out immediately for this general!"

Hearing Xiao Maha's voice, Zhang Ran did not dare to be negligent and hurriedly ran out to greet him. However, before he left the lobby, he encountered a team of soldiers wearing Mingguang armor and pressed the sabre and rushed in with murderous intent.

The soldiers entered the lobby and stood in two, standing on both sides of the lobby, majestic and pressing their swords. The officials and the yamen runners who were originally there and the personal soldiers brought by Kong Fan were forced to retreat to the corner, but they did not dare to compete with them.

After all the armored soldiers were in their seats and controlled the situation in the lobby, Xiao Mohe just crossed the threshold and walked in. Behind him were two others, Liu Shijing, the chief clerk of Huang Pavilion, and Shangguan Wudi, the chief general of Huang Pavilion.

"What kind of wind is this that actually caused a single cavalry to save the master. The great military achievements are so great that General Cavalry, the first important official of our Dachen army, has come! I wonder if General Xiao is here, and Zhang Ran, the prefect of Jinling, is in a position of farewell to welcome and forgive his crimes."

No matter what Xiao Maha's intention was, Zhang Ran gave him a high hat and praised him when he met.

Although Kong Fan was in the high position of the Shangshu and was deeply favored by the emperor, Xiao Mohe was treated as the emperor with the extremely high treatment of opening Huanggeyi and the three sects, and saw that he was a higher official position. Therefore, he had to stand up reluctantly and politely and said, "I have met General Xiao!"

Xiao Mohe was worried about his daughter's safety and ignored Kong Fan at all. When he saw Zhang Ran, he grabbed the collar of his collar, and raised it like a chicken and shouted angrily: "Bold Zhang Ran dared to capture the general's daughter. Could it be that he was tired of living?"

Zhang Ran complained in pain but did not dare to resist. He said with an innocent look: "Where does the general start? I have never met Ling Qianjin. It is too late to curry favor with Bei Zhi, let alone arrest him? He didn't dare to arrest the general's daughter with a hundred courages!"

Liu Shijing looked at Zhang Ran’s expression without any falsehood. With his wit, he immediately guessed that Xiao Jing did not mention it on purpose, so he said, “The young woman named Xiao Jing who came just now is the pearl in our general’s hand.”

Shangguan Wudi immediately pulled out half of his sword and threatened him with murderous intent, "If you catch our lady, let it go quickly! Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless under the sword!"
