The 306th chapter escapes the law (2)
November 1st, 8 o'clock in the evening.
Hyde took a group of imperial guards and walked through small buildings and locked the doors of the small buildings himself.
On the whistle tower on the exterior wall, an imperial guard stood up and blew a crisp and high-pitched trumpet again.
The sound of neat steps came from the exterior wall of the bastion. The patrol team began to perform their duties at night. More than a dozen gas lights lit up, and the light collected through the concave mirror turned into a column of light and swept towards the kapok forest outside the bastion.
Qiao sat in the library on the second floor, looking through the glass window at the snowy sky outside.
In front of him, a thick cowhide cover "Deren Empire Noble Code" was spread out.
In the afternoon, Lao Mai made two suggestions to Qiao.
The first suggestion is based on the premise that Joe is truly innocent:
Lao Mai, Donkey Marquis and others can mobilize their connections and channels outside to help Qiao find evidence of his frame-up... and even find the real stolen goods stolen by the Whisper Forest Club.
Lao Mai assured Qiao that if Qiao was really innocent, the "stolen goods" at No. 158 Qingsong Street were framed by others, they were 70% sure to find the people who framed Qiao, find the real stolen goods, help Qiao clean up the charges, and restore his innocence.
Lao Mai swears to assure Qiao that they have such power.
Although they are prisoners of Blood Kapok Castle, many of them have been imprisoned here for more than ten years and decades... But the family behind them has not collapsed, and their connections and channels still exist.
And because they gathered in the Blood Kapok Castle, they lived together as close as their "family". They cooperated with each other and cooperated with each other. Their channels and connections were connected, forming a network that was stronger, more secretive and more powerful than when they were outside.
Because they were all imprisoned in the Blood Kapok Castle, they would never be able to leave this broken place again in their lives. They had no competition, no conspiracy, no intrigue, and no intrigue.
They joined forces and worked hard for the sake of interests, so this cooperation is unbreakable. The power they gathered is extremely powerful... and extremely united!
Lao Mai and the others are willing to use their power for Qiao - if Qiao is innocent, they will definitely help Qiao clean up the charges.
What Joe needs to pay is the Vitu family’s channel in Tulun Port.
Lao Mai, the Marquis of Donkey, and the others hoped to enter the ocean trade of Tulun Port through Joe and the Weitu family. They promised that their trade would not impact the existing market share of Tulun Port, and their targets were placed in the vast territory of the imperial capital, as well as the central, northern and eastern empires.
Moreover, Lao Mai swears to Qiao that they all believe that Qiao is innocent. Because based on the news they received and their judgment, Qiao, who was a newcomer and a first time to come to the imperial capital, did not have enough strength to do the case of the Whisper Forest Club.
So they believed that they would definitely be able to relieve Joe of guilt.
Of course, if Qiao is unwilling to cooperate... Then, seeing that Qiao has been locked up in the Blood Kapok Fort and is already a member of the big family, Lao Mai and the others are willing to give a second suggestion.
The second suggestion is that according to Lao Mai, whether Qiao is "innocence" or "verbal innocence", he can use this method to escape from sin. In return for Lao Mai's proposal, Lao Mai and the others hope that Qiao can become their "friend". If Qiao can escape from sin smoothly and leave safely, then Qiao can become a part of their power outside!
The Weitu family belongs to the Junker nobles. According to the "National Code", the privileges enjoyed by the imperial nobles can be punished with merit as long as Joe does not commit the serious crime of killing members of the royal family and treason!
The theft with a market value of over two billion Jinmack is undoubtedly a felony.
But in the final analysis, this is just a theft case.
Regardless of whether Joe did this case or not, as long as Joe showed enough merit, he could immediately take down the charge and restore his freedom.
Of course, according to Lao Mai's estimate, a case with a market value of more than 2 billion Jinmai is an absolutely shocking case. If Qiao wants to be punished with merit, the merits represented by the medals he now have are not enough.
Of course, because all the "stolen goods" have been "successfully retrieved" and there is no excessive consequence, Qiao probably needs the merit equivalent of a first-class Golden Oak Leaf Medal to successfully remove all the charges and charges on him.
The First Class Golden Oak Leaf Medal was awarded by the Imperial Military to senior generals or above.
The conditions for obtaining it are: in a large-scale battle of millions, the command is determined, and strategic contributions are made to seize huge strategic benefits for the empire, such as annihilation of the enemy's main legion, capturing important and key royal members of the enemy, seizing strategic cities, important places, etc.
Just like the first Duke of Jiasica, he commanded hundreds of thousands of elite imperial troops to go south, swept across, annexed more than a dozen provincial territories, swallowed Tulun Port and Jiasica Island in one bite, opened up the only sea outlet for the empire in the Storm Ocean, and killed millions of Tulun Port and Jiasica natives...
Such merits made him awarded the title of Duke of Jiaxijia, and at the same time he only received a first-class Golden Oak Leaf Medal!
According to Lao Mai's guidance, Qiao turned and studied the detailed provisions of the nobles' use of merit and crime in the nobles' code one by one.
"A bunch of greedy old guys."
While studying the corresponding legal provisions, Joe cursed in a low voice.
Lao Mai, the Marquis of Donkey, and the others seemed to give Qiao two suggestions, but in fact they only gave one choice - to cooperate with them obediently and help Qiao clean up the charges. Then, the Weitu family "opened the door to invite thieves" and allowed the forces behind the prisoners of the Blood Kapok Castle to step into Tulun Port.
The promise they gave was that they would not seize the current market share of Tulun Port!
The goods they get through ocean trade will only target the traditional imperial turfs in the central, northern and eastern empires...
‘Haha’, except for sneering, Joe was left with only sneer.
A group of royal criminals who were imprisoned in Blood Kapok for life and committed some heinous crimes... believe their promise?
"I will still believe your promises after two months. After all, you are so enthusiastic, so charitable and kind, just like a group of real old men and uncles."
"But now it's different. I've become smarter... Although I don't have much wisdom yet, I've become smarter!"
His fingers gently tapped the noble code, constantly reviewing every detail of the welcome tea party.
Lao Mai and the others are constantly showing off their well-informed, their close family, their various privileges they still enjoy in the Blood Kapok Castle, and the extravagant life they are enjoying.
If it were someone else, there would undoubtedly be huge psychological pressure because of their show-off, thus agreeing with everything they said!
The two suggestions given by Lao Mai, the first one, will inevitably cost the Weitu family a huge price.
And the second suggestion... After Lao Mai made this suggestion, he kept hinting at Qiao, and more than a dozen people including the Marquis of Donkey were constantly hinting at Qiao that this was impossible to accomplish.
A merit comparable to a first-class Golden Oak Leaf Medal!
Lao Mai kept mentioning that the first generation of Duke of Jiasica made so many contributions, and finally got such a first-class Golden Oak Leaf Medal!
The Marquis of Donkey told Qiao that he commanded the Lulai Legion ten years ago and in a fierce battle, he wiped out the imperial general who killed millions of Lutian field elite soldiers and only received a first-class Golden Oak Leaf Medal.
The navigator quoted an example from 20 years ago. An Imperial Navy lieutenant general led a fleet to land in the southwest corner of the Black Continent, and went upstream along a river to conquer more than 2,000 indigenous tribes of the Black Continent, killed hundreds of thousands of indigenous people of the Black Continent, sold nearly three million slaves of the Black Continent, and opened a new colony for the Empire to the area of fifteen provinces in the Black Continent.
This lieutenant general of the army made such a meritorious service, and only received a first-class Golden Oak Leaf Medal.
Lao Mai and the others mean nothing more than telling Qiao that it is impossible to take the blame with their merits, at least for Qiao, it is impossible... So Qiao has no choice but to have no choice but to choose the first suggestion given by Lao Mai!
Moreover, because at the welcome tea party, Qiao entered the "crystal red" instinct state, he clearly realized that Lao Mai and the others were sure that they would be able to escape from Qiao's crime.
"They will definitely be able to get rid of me...they will definitely find evidence and wash away the crimes on me."
Qiao held his chin with both hands and murmured in a low voice: "Why are they so... sure? Where does their confidence come from?"
The lights in Qiao's small building were on for a night, so that when the guards patrolling at night passed by Qiao's window, an imperial guard captain shouted loudly: "Joe Rong Weitu... Your daily supply of candles, oils, and gas for lamps is also available... Do you need unlimited lighting supply?"
Opposite the small building, in the dark bedroom, the Marquis of Donkey stood behind the gauze curtains with his shirtless eyes, quietly looking at the window where Qiao Lianglan was lamp-lit.
Hearing the yelling of the captain of the guard, the Marquis of Donkey smiled.
He reached out and snapped his fingers, and laughed in a low voice: "The delicious Tulun Port...you plant trees, you fertilize, you worm, you weed...we will pick the delicious fruits that have been produced...ah! What a wonderful thing!"
The next day, early in the morning of November 2, the Marquis of Donkey knocked on Qiao's door with a copy of the "Imperial Capital Express".
The sleepy Joe opened the door, and the Marquis of Donkey leaned against the door frame and sighed to Joe: "Joe, a bad news... The information I just received, yesterday, your subordinate, the one named Sigens, wanted to send someone to return to Tulun Port to report to your family... His request was rejected."
"All your subordinates are now at No. 158 Qingsong Street, the Ministry of Supervision and the Ministry of Police, and they are surrounded by water."
"Well, the Imperial Capital District Court, today we are preparing to accept the lawsuit filed by Justice Weilun and prepare to interrogate several of your important subordinates."
The Marquis of Donkey lowered his voice and carefully observed Qiao's expression changes.
"If, I mean, if someone can't bear the pressure... they just say a wrong word, it will be extremely unfavorable for you!"
Chapter completed!
