Chapter 119 Black Cat's Favor 29
To be honest, as the commander of the Imperial Guard, Xu Jun has a very strong aura. He can scare many people by questioning them with a cold face.
However, no matter how fierce he was, it seemed as if nothing could disturb Fang Yun's mood. Fang Yun remained neither humble nor arrogant, and looked at everyone with a kind smile.
"Commander Xu, although I am a businessman and don't know much, I know that it takes two to tango. I hurried here and I seemed to have only heard your voice and that of Mr. Xu. Why don't I listen to what the steward has to say?"
Fang Yun looked in the direction of the steward and suddenly cried out in surprise, saying in panic: "What is this doing? What crime has the steward committed? Is it a crime that deserves death? This..."
Looking at Xu Jun anxiously again, Fang Yun said quickly, "This is not right, Commander Xu. This case has not been tried and there is no conviction. If the manager dies in your hands, won't it ruin your reputation? The life or death of the manager doesn't matter, but the reputation of the commander is important. You must not let people spread the word that you despise the law, take human life lightly, and kill people for fun."
Xu Jun's eyes widened, and he drew his knife and slashed straight at Fang Yun.
Lin Jianye cursed inwardly, cried out loudly, and rushed forward, barely managing to pull Fang Yun's arm to avoid the long knife.
Before Lin Jianye could even stand firmly, he hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, Boss Fang. My feet are numb from standing for too long. I lost my balance and fell. Thanks to you, I was able to maintain a little dignity and not fall to the ground face first."
"Lin Jianye, are you really going against this commander?"
Lin Jianye cried out loudly again and hurriedly explained: "Brother Xu, you can't say that. Our two families are brothers-in-law, we are all family. How could I go against you? My feet are really numb. You know, I have been in poor health since I was a child."
It was not good, as if he had disturbed someone's well. Lin Jianye suddenly started coughing violently, his cough was heart-wrenching and earth-shaking. It made people feel heartbroken. At the same time, it also felt as if his throat was aching.
Lin Jianye coughed and said, "Brother Xu, cough cough, I am only taking care of my family, cough, my brothers. Look at my arm, cough cough, it was all because of Xu Long. There are many more on my body, cough cough cough..."
When Xu Long heard this, he felt extremely uncomfortable. He turned pale and said in annoyance, "Stop pretending to be a good guy here. I didn't ask you to come over here. You deserve to be beaten."
"Xu Long!"
Xu Jun scolded in a low voice, and when Xu Long looked over, he glared at him coldly.
Xu Long shut up in frustration. He was angry and didn't say anything afterwards. No one asked him to speak. Humph, he didn't want to talk.
"If you can't stand steadily, find a seat and don't hinder me from investigating the case. Come, arrest all the people in Yuanfang Restaurant and bring them back for questioning."
Lin Jianye was shocked. What on earth were these two brothers doing? Why was there such a big fuss? There were quite a few people watching today!
"Hey, hey? Brother Xu, wait a minute. May I ask what crime they have committed?"
"You don't need to know. Once I have examined the case and the evidence is solid, I will make it public. Then you will know it naturally."
"and many more."
Lin Jianye stood in front of Fang Yun, glared at the approaching imperial guards, and said loudly: "I have had poor health since I was a child, how dare you touch me! If anything happens to me, I wonder if my family will file a complaint with the emperor!"
The two guards who came to arrest Fang Yun looked at each other, unsure of what to do and not daring to act rashly.
"Catch him, and get two more people to help Minister Lin to a chair nearby. If you are not feeling well, you need to rest."
In the end, Lin Jianye was forced to sit on the chair, watching the guards arresting people indiscriminately. He felt anxious but there was nothing he could do.
Once again, I have to recognize that I am a civil servant who doesn’t know martial arts. How frustrating it is.
In my heart, I cursed my good friend again. What's the use of you for not coming? You are as useless as Xu Long...
