Watching the carriage driving away from the Marquis Wu'an Mansion, Lu Zhan touched the tip of his nose and couldn't help but sigh heavily.
"Hey, Lu Er, why didn't you send your wife into the house? Could it be that your wife drove her down?" Xie Wu's carriage had not gone far when a figure leisurely walked out of the alley. It was Zhennan.
Prince Xiao Mubei.
Lu Zhan glanced at Xiao Mubei and said, "Have you made arrangements for tomorrow?"
Xiao Mubei proudly turned the fan in his hand in a circle and said, "Don't worry about me doing things! Because of you, I even drugged my own sister. I don't know what she will do when I go back."
Noisy!" After saying that, he did not forget to sigh heavily.
"What does that have to do with me?" Lu Zhan raised his eyebrows, looked at Xiao Mubei with a calm face and said.
Xiao Mubei was confused. He glared at Lu Zhan unconvinced and said, "Lu Er, you are trying to burn bridges by crossing the river! If you hadn't wanted to show your courtesy to your wife, would I have attacked my own sister?"
"Did I tell you to attack your sister?" Lu Zhan raised his eyebrows and asked again.
"You said you wanted me to hold my sister back..." Xiao Mubei suddenly became speechless.
Sure enough, Lu Zhan chuckled after hearing what he said, and said, "Yes, I just asked you to hold her back, but I didn't ask you to drug her! Are you sure you don't have too much grudge against your sister?
, so you take the opportunity to retaliate?"
"Lu Er, do you still have a conscience when you say this?" Xiao Mubei finally got angry.
"Of course he has no conscience, but Prince Xiao, you don't want to talk too much!" A clear and clear voice suddenly broke in.
Looking at the figure walking towards him slowly step by step at the entrance of the alley, Xiao Mubei shivered unconsciously.
"Sister, sister, why are you here?" Xiao Mubei smiled what he thought was the kindest smile.
Lu Zhan chuckled lightly. He raised his hand and bowed to Xiao Muqing. He smiled lightly and said to her, "Princess, I won't disturb your brother and sister's reminiscence. I will take my leave now."
"Lu Er, you, you just left like that!" Xiao Mubei grabbed Lu Zhan's sleeve.
"Otherwise, didn't Princess Xiao just say that I have no conscience, so... Prince Xiao, just ask for your blessings!" Lu Zhan curled his lips and smiled. He smiled and stretched out his hand to pull Xiao Mubei to him.
He pushed his hand away, and then walked past Xiao Muqing in a swaggering manner.
Seeing Lu Zhan's figure walking further and further away, Xiao Mubei panicked, "Sister, the mastermind of this matter is Lu Zhan, you, why don't you settle the score with him!"
"Of course it's because you're stupid!" Xiao Muqing pinched his knuckles hard, then without saying a word, he raised his hand and punched him.
Did he think she didn't want to settle a score with Lu Zhan?
She can't beat Lu Zhan!
Thinking of this, Xiao Muqing felt even more aggrieved! After thinking about it, she raised her hand and gave her brother a hard punch for poking her heart and lung tubes!
Since Li Fuyin succeeded Yingtianfu Fuyin, Yingtian Mansion has never been so lively.
Early in the morning, before the gate of Yingtian Mansion was opened, the outside was crowded with people watching the excitement. The last time it was so lively, the wife of the former minister of the Ministry of War personally wrote a petition to accuse her mother-in-law of abusing and humiliating her, and asked Master Qingtian to allow her to
Of course, in the end, Mrs. Li got the letter of peace and separation as she wished, and the former minister of the Ministry of War also angered His Majesty because of this matter and was dismissed by His Majesty.
Looking at the people on the three floors inside and outside, Li Fuyin felt as if he was visiting his own grave.
The government officials finally brought the two maids to court. Although they had changed into plain clothes, the scars on their faces and hands were still shocking.
Before Li Fuyin could ask any questions, they knelt down on the ground and confessed who they were and who their tormentor was.
Although he already knew who the main culprit was yesterday, when he heard Yang Xiao's name from these two maids again, Li Fuyin still felt like a bolt from the blue.
"Please ask Master Qingtian to make the decision for this slave."
"Please ask Master Qingtian to make the decision for this slave."
The two maids knelt on the ground and begged in unison.
Li Fuyin finally mourned for himself for a minute in his heart. Then, he took a deep breath, cleared his throat, and said with a serious face, "Who is coming? Mr. Yang from the Yang Mansion is here immediately."
"Yes." As soon as he finished speaking, two government servants came out immediately.
After the two government officials walked out, the people watching began to secretly discuss things underneath.
"I didn't expect that Li Fuyin is really brave!"
"Brother, what did you say? It was just a normal inquiry, why are you so bold?"
"Brother, when I heard what you said, I knew you were from out of town! Do you know who Mr. Yang is? He is the Jin Yiwei, and his father is the deputy commander of the Jin Yiwei! This has always been the role of the Jin Yiwei to judge others. When
It's someone's turn to judge the royal guards! This Li Fuyin! It's so difficult!" As the man said this, he sweated for Li Fuyin who was sitting in the hall.
"Then, that, that, that...can the case be completed today?"
"In my opinion, it's difficult!"
While everyone was talking about it, there was finally movement outside Yingtian Mansion.
"Come on, come on, those two government officials are back!" Someone outside suddenly shouted.
This shout was so loud that for a moment, all the heads poked out, and the short people even jumped up, just to get a glimpse of Mr. Yang's majestic face.
Finally, a young man in brocade clothes walked over with his feet raised and a calm expression on his face.
The crowd automatically dispersed to both sides, making way for an aisle.
"Brother, this is Mr. Yang! Look, he looks quite upright!" The outsider who just asked the question came closer and whispered.
The person being questioned glanced at him and said in a low voice, "What do you know? As the saying goes, people should not be judged by their appearance... Forget it, let's not talk about it anymore. Let's wait for Li Fuyin to interrogate!"
Thinking of Yang Xiao's identity, the person being asked suddenly closed his mouth.
He glanced around cautiously, then secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He has no control over his mouth. If Jin Yiwei listens to this, then he will...
It's better to let Li Fuyin touch Jin Yiwei. He just comes to watch the excitement, and he doesn't want to get involved in the excitement.
Yang Xiao walked to the middle of the court, and he bowed to Li Fuyin uprightly, "I have met Mr. Fuyin."
He is a royal guard and protector, and he does not have to kneel before an official.
According to the etiquette, Li Fuyin should stand up and return a salute to him. However, he was in the court now, and Yang Xiao was the one being questioned, so Li Fuyin just nodded slightly towards him.
"Yang Baihu, someone has accused you of abusing civilian girls. I wonder, what do you have to say?" Li Fuyin said straight to the point.
One blow sooner or later, so it’s better to risk it early!
"Sir, I have never abused anyone! I wonder who is suing me?" Yang Xiao raised his eyes and looked directly at Li Fuyin, his voice was loud and clear, without any hesitation.
Li Fuyin glanced at him, and then he turned his attention to the two maids kneeling on the ground, "Chunying, Chunxiu, look up and see that the one who tortured you is this Yang Baihu in the hall?"
The two maids raised their heads timidly. They only glanced at Yang Xiao and then quickly lowered their heads.
"Yes, it's him..."
"It's him. I can recognize him even if he turns to ashes."
After the two maids said this, they covered their faces and started crying.
"Yang Baihu, do you have anything to say?" Li Fuyin turned his attention to Yang Xiao again.
Yang Xiao sneered, raised his hand and bowed to Li Fuyin, and said, "Master Li, I don't know these two at all. I don't know why they bite me like this!"
"Chunying, Chunxiu, and Yang Baihu said they didn't know you. Do you have evidence to prove that the person who abused you was Yang Baihu?" Li Fuyin asked again.
"This slave is a maid from the Yang Mansion. You only need to check it..." One of the maids named Chunying whispered through gritted teeth.
"Yang Baihu?" Li Fuyin turned his attention to Yang Xiao again.
Yang Xiao chuckled and said loudly, "Sir, there are not a hundred maids in our house, but dozens. I have never seen them before. However, since they say they are the maids in my house, then please
Your Excellency, please send a message to the steward in the mansion to ask!"
Li Fuyin frowned slightly.
It seems that Yang Xiao is really well prepared!
However, since he said this, the steward still has to report it. Otherwise, if the identities of these two maids cannot be proved, their accusations will be much less convincing.
Therefore, Li Fuyin sent two more government servants to the Yang Mansion to summon the Yang Mansion's steward.
It would be some time before the steward came, so Li Fuyin asked the two maids again, "Chunying, Chunxiu, besides your identities, do you have any other evidence?"
Just because they are maids of the Yang family is not enough to prove that the person who abused them is Yang Xiao.
"Sir, slave, slave has... Him, when he abused slave, slave once secretly hid a jade pendant from him..." The maid named Chunying said, and then carefully took out a delicate and warm jade pendant from her arms.
Hotan jade comes.
The moment he saw the jade pendant, Yang Xiao's pupils shrank suddenly.
How can it be!
He was always very careful, and every time he was done, someone would clean it up for him. How could he leave behind a jade pendant with his name engraved on it?
"Sir, this jade pendant has his name engraved on it. Sir... Sir, you can check it." Chunying said carefully, holding the jade pendant.
Upon seeing this, Li Fuyin hurriedly asked someone to bring the jade pendant up.
He looked at the jade pendant carefully and saw Yang Xiao's name engraved on it.
"Yang Baihu, do you recognize this jade pendant?" Li Fuyin raised his eyes and looked at Yang Xiao again.
Yang Xiao tightened his hands in his sleeves.
"This jade pendant is indeed mine, but it was lost half a year ago. I don't know why it appeared in this girl's hands?" Yang Xiao said trying his best to stay calm.
Of course he couldn't deny such obvious evidence, otherwise wouldn't he tell everyone that he felt guilty?
Li Fuyin frowned and was about to ask again when a government servant suddenly walked in quickly and said, "Sir, the steward of the Yang family has arrived."
Li Fuyin hurriedly put the matter aside for the time being. He said to the yamen servant, "Quickly, bring the people up."
"Yes." The yamen officer responded, and soon, the steward of the Yang family was brought to the court.
He first saluted Li Fuyin, then bowed to Yang Xiao, and finally walked aside and stood down.
"Are you the steward of Yang Mansion?" Li Fuyin asked.
"My lord, I am the steward of the Yang Mansion, Yang An." Yang An replied respectfully, bowing his head.
"Yang An, let me ask you, do you know these two maids kneeling in the hall?" Li Fuyin asked again.
After listening to Li Fuyin's words, Yang An turned his head and looked at the two maids. After a while, he pointed at them and said with astonishment, "You, aren't you Chunying and Chunxiu?"
As soon as these words came out, the crowd outside the hall suddenly exploded.
