Ren Tanqian shielded Lin Yun behind him, his eyes filled with rage as he glared at Bragging Simon. In a low voice, he demanded, "Bragging Simon, explain to me what you're doing right now!"
"What did I tell you before? Did you ignore everything I said? "
Bragging Simon paled as he explained hurriedly, "Manor Head, you don't know. This brat colluded with the unscrupulous merchants, exonerated them of their crimes, and delayed the patrol and enforcement teams from carrying out their duties."
Ren Tanqian bellowed, "That's not up to you to do anything to him!"
Bragging Simon was stunned by Ren Tanqian's roar and stood rooted to the ground, not daring to speak.
As for Jiang Shijian and Leaf Dao-Denier, they exchanged a glance and began to exchange information.
Jiang Shijian stepped forward and cupped his fists at Ren Tanqian. "Manor Head Ren, you were not involved, so there are indeed some things you don't know. The Yun family poisoned the people, and the circumstances are extremely serious. The impact is extremely negative!
"The Ministry of Justice sent out the enforcement team to arrest the Yun family, but they resisted the law with violence. The enforcement team is severely lacking in combat power, and the patrol team naturally has the responsibility and obligation to assist the enforcement team in arresting the Yun family. "
At this point, Jiang Shijian pointed at Lin Yun. "But this brat is defending the Yun family and spreading lies to mislead the public, severely hindering our patrol team from enforcing the law.
"According to the kingdom's laws, his actions should be the same as the Yun family. That's why I gave the order to arrest him.
But he resisted the law with violence and killed hundreds of our patrol team's Steel Cavalry. His disregard for human life is the greatest crime! If we don't put him to death today, how can we face the kingdom's laws? How can we face the hundreds of Steel Cavalry that he killed? "
Hearing Jiang Shijian's words, Ren Tanqian could not help but frown.
As the Manor Head of the Yu State Martial House, although Ren Tanqian was often away, he still had some understanding of the feud between the four great families of Yu State.
The Jiang family and the Yun family had always been at odds. The Jiang family was obviously targeting the Yun family for the poisoning incident.
Moreover, Ren Tanqian had interacted with Yun Xiaoyao before, so he had some understanding of the man's character. He believed that Yun Xiaoyao would never do such a thing!
Ren Tanqian thought about it, then said, "The Yun Family is a top family in Yuzhou after all. They have contributed a lot to the development of Yuzhou over the years."
"Even if the Yun Family is involved in the poisoning case, your patrol shouldn't handle it privately. You should let the Marquis of Yuzhou come back and handle it personally."
"As for Lin Yun, he is a disciple of our Yuzhou Martial House. No matter what he did, it should be dealt with by our Martial Palace. It's not your place to deal with it! "
"Mansion Master, you can't say that." A middle-aged voice with a steady aura suddenly sounded from afar.
Everyone turned around and saw a fat middle-aged man with big ears and a fat body walking out from the crowd.
The middle-aged man was dressed in a golden robe and had a golden hairpin and jade crown on his head. He looked like a bureaucrat and a noble.
Upon seeing this person, all the guards of the law enforcement team cupped their fists and saluted him. "Minister!"
Even Tyrant Long cupped his fists respectfully. "Family Head."
Without a doubt, this middle-aged man with a golden hairpin and jade crown was the Minister of Justice, the current head of the Long Family, Long Batian.
In the entire Yuzhou City, the person with the most power was none other than the Marquis of Yuzhou. The Marquis of Yuzhou was not only a marquis who presided over a region, but also the governor of Yuzhou City.
Other than the Marquis of Yuzhou, the person with the most power was none other than the Minister of Justice.
The Ministry of Justice was a very authoritative legal institution. The Ministry of Justice had the final say on whether a person arrested by the law enforcement team would be imprisoned or executed.
Now that something like this had happened to the Yun Family, Jiang Shijian, as the leader of the patrol team, did not have the authority to punish the Yun Family. The Minister of Justice, however, had the authority.
Long Batian strolled to the front door of the Yun Residence and said to Ren Tanqian in a bureaucratic tone, "Now that the lives of hundreds of people are in danger, we must arrest the Yun Family as soon as possible and interrogate them for the cure."
"If we wait for the Marquis of Yuzhou to come back and deal with this matter, wouldn't that be leaving hundreds of people to die?"
"Furthermore, the four core elders have already voted to expel Lin Yun from the Martial House. For the Martial House Head to say that he is still a member of the Martial House, isn't that a bit too far-fetched?"
Ren Tanqian turned around and glared at Bragging Simon. Then, he turned around and walked in front of Lin Yun. Using a calm tone, he said to Lin Yun, "Little brother Lin Yun, do you still remember me? We met once in the canyon of the Savage Mountain Range. "
"I didn't expect you to be the Martial House Head of the Yuzhou Martial House." Lin Yun nodded his head, indicating that he still remembered Ren Tanqian.
Ren Tanqian also nodded his head in surprise. "I also didn't expect that a genius like you would actually be a disciple of my Martial House."
After pausing for a moment, Ren Tanqian apologetically said to Lin Yun, "Little brother Lin Yun, I have already investigated what happened between you and Green Gate in the Martial House these past two days."
"All of this is Green Gate's fault. Bragging Simon was biased towards Green Gate and expelled you from the Martial House!"
"The reason why this happened is because I have been traveling all year round and did not supervise the internal affairs of the Martial House properly. I apologize for this."
Hearing Ren Tanqian's words, the crowd couldn't help but take a deep breath. Their hearts were filled with disbelief.
The Martial House Head of the Yuzhou Martial House actually apologized to a disciple in front of so many people?
Furthermore, Lin Yun was a disciple who had already been expelled!
After pausing for a moment, Ren Tanqian announced, "Now, in the name of the Martial House, I officially invite you to return to the Yuzhou Martial House and directly promote you to a core disciple!"
Ren Tanqian's words were like a stone that caused a thousand ripples. The entire crowd was in an uproar.
A disciple who had been expelled from the Martial House actually had the Martial House Head personally invite him back. What a great honor!
Not only did the Martial House Head personally invite him, he even directly promoted him to a core disciple.
What kind of treatment was this?!
In recent years, there were only four core disciples in the entire Yuzhou Martial House. They were the top geniuses nurtured by the four major clans. They were known as the Four Geniuses.
However, Lin Yun, because of the Martial House Head's words, directly became a core disciple who was on the same level as the Four Geniuses!
Encountering such a good thing made everyone want to swap places with Lin Yun.
However, the person in question, Lin Yun, had a calm expression on his face as if this was just a trivial matter.
"I agree to return to the Yuzhou Martial House." Lin Yun was very clear that Ren Tanqian invited him back to the Martial House for two reasons. One, it was because he wanted to protect him.
As long as he agreed to return to the Yuzhou Martial House, he would be a disciple of the Yuzhou Martial House. That way, Ren Tanqian would have a reason to protect him.
