    He was more desperate and angry than anyone else. He had tried to kick up a fuss thest time, but in the end, because no one believed him, he could only ept the reality.


    Thirty years ago, he couldn’t change a thing. Would he be able to change anything thirty yearster?


    Seeing that Yang Yi was in such despair, Yi Zn hadplicated feelings. He knew that he was not supposed to believe the guy in front of him because Yang Yi was already a convicted criminal waiting to be executed in two days.


    If he investigated and tried to get to the bottom of it, he might not be able to find anything. It was best to leave it as it was.


    He asked himself if he should do that, but the answer was no.


    Even if Yang Yi had been lying to him all along, he would still give it a go. He wanted to find out the truth and make sure that the truth was irrefutable.


    Therefore, Yi Zn looked at Yang Yi and said, “You’re a teacher in Xin Vige. It’s not difficult for me to find your wife and daughter. I’ll investigate this case thoroughly. If you’re indignant, live on well. Don’t die before the truth is out.”


    “I don’t believe in Mysticism, but it’s undeniable that there’s something I don’t know in this world. A girl from the Mystic Sect came to the capital. She said that I caught the wrong person.”


    After saying that, Yi Zn stood up and walked out. He instructed the guard calmly. “Guard him well. Don’t torture him. This case is not over yet.”


    Yang Yi came back to his senses from the shock. His eyes were moist and his voice was trembling. “My wife is called Su Wanrou. This is the name I gave her. No one knows about it.”


    Yi Zn paused for a moment before continuing to walk out.


    A person’s identity might be reced, but their memories could not be reced.


    It was already dawn. When Zhou Changzhu saw Yi Zn, he was a little surprised. “Zn, why are you here so early for the trial? There’s no need for you to interrogate those in prison personally.”


    Yi Zn patted Zhou Changzhu. “Brother Changzhu, I have something to ask of you. I’m afraid there’s something fishy about Yang Yi’s case. Please take care of him for now.”


    Zhou Changzhu smiled. “No problem. Before the day of executiones, he won’t die even if he wants to. He has to go on the guillotine and be decapitated.”


    Decapitation was a punishment that many people did not want to suffer. Therefore, some criminals would choose tomit suicide by poisoning themselves after they were convicted.


    Zhou Changzhu thought that Yi Zn was worried that Yang Yi wouldmit suicide.


    Yi Zn did not exin anything further. He nodded at Zhou Changzhu and left. He untied the reins and got on the horse. He did not even go back to the mansion and went straight out of the city.


    He and Zhou Changzhu were brothers who had fought alongside each other on the battlefield. He trusted him.


    The scar on his face was left during the battle.


    In the past few years, because the border was stable, he returned to the capital. He was a very young assistant minister of the Ministry of War. He was not married, and his parents were so anxious about it. No one knew why he remained single, but he knew.


    He swore in his heart that he would arrest Yang Yi. If he got married and was tied down by family, he might change.


    Therefore, he did not marry.


    Now, he could finally seek justice for his sister. He could not let anything go wrong.


    Xin Vige was only two hours away from the capital. When themoners saw Yi Zn, they were all shocked.


    Yi Zn asked in a low voice. “Where does the vige chief live?”


    The person he asked immediately pointed in a direction. Yi Zn dismounted and threw the reins. “Take care of my horse.”


    He took out a small bag of copper coins from his waist and threw it over.


    Themoner immediately nodded with a smile. “Okay, okay, okay.”


    Yi Zn walked towards the vige chief’s house.


    During April, it was time for harvest. The vige chief was not at home. Only the woman and some children were at home. The woman seemed to be angry as she reproached the child. The child ran out and bumped into Yi Zn. When he looked up… he saw the fierce-looking scar and was instantly frightened to tears.


    When the woman ran out to take a look, her naughty grandchildren ran back behind her. “Grandma…”


    Old Madam Zhang looked at Yi Zn and was also taken aback. However, she was an old woman after all and was not as flustered as the child. She asked. “Who are you looking for?”


    Yi Zn’s expression was cold. “The vige chief. I’m here to investigate a case.”


    Yi Zn took out his badge. Old Madam Zhang was about to kneel when Yi Zn walked in. “You don’t have to kneel.”


    He walked into the courtyard. Old Madam Zhang’s two daughters-inw were also a little scared.


    Old Madam Zhang immediately instructed., “Don’t just stand there. Niu, bring the children into the room and put them to bedp. Wang, go and boil water and make tea. Get the eldest daughter to go and get her grandfather back.”


    Yi Zn sat in the courtyard, making the entire family nervous and ill-at-ease, but he did not seem to be aware of that.


    With such a terrifying man sitting here, the naughty children immediately became obedient.


    The scar on Yi Zn’s face made him look fierce. He was not a gentle person to begin with, so when there was no smile on his face, he looked even fiercer.


    The old vige chief returned quickly.


    When he saw Yi Zn, he immediately said with a smile, “Sir, sorry to keep you waiting. My name is Zhang Fengshou, the vige chief of Xin Vige. Everyone calls me Old Zhang. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.”


    Yi Zn did not beat around the bush. “Is there a teacher in your vige called Yang Cheng?”


    Zhang Fengshou was caught off guard by this question for a second. When he came back to his senses, he quickly nodded. “Yes, yes. Mr. Yang is a gentleman and knowledgeable schr. What did he do?”


    Yi Zn said calmly, “Where does he live? Take me there.”


    Zhang Fengshou touched his forehead. “Okay, okay.”


    He had no choice but to bring Yi Zn to look for Yang Cheng.


    On the way, he wanted to ask what was going on, but when he saw Yi Zn’s cold expression, he was too scared to ask.


    When they arrived at a farmhouse, Zhang Fengshou knocked on the door. “Is Teacher Yang at home?”


    Soon, someone came to open the door. When the door opened, an ordinary-looking middle-aged woman looked at Zhang Fengshou. “Vige Chief, my husband is at home. Is there anything I can help you with?”


    Zhang Fengshou looked at Yi Zn and replied. “Government officials are investigating a case. I don’t know what it’s about either.”


    Su Wanrou looked at Yi Zn with a puzzled expression, but she still moved aside. “Sir, pleasee in.”


    Yi Zn looked at her and could roughly tell her identity. He said calmly, “Madam, do you know Yang Yi, the Minister of the Ministry of Finance?”


    Su Wanrou was stunned for a moment before answering., “I know, but my husband has no business with the Yang family.”
