After traveling through time, she just wanted to eat, drink and have fun

Upon hearing the tragic news, the families of the missing women were extremely sad and angry. They shouted that they could not accept such a cruel fact, so they gathered together to make trouble. Some emotional people even wore mourning clothes and blocked the gate of Liu's house, strongly demanding justice. For a time, the scene was in chaos, attracting everyone's attention.

In this situation, Zhu Yu, a weak woman, was not affected much in other aspects except that her movements were slightly restricted. But she knew that Prince Jing was probably facing huge pressure at this time and his life must be difficult.

The midday sun was intoxicating. She lazily lay on the table in front of the carved window, looking out of the window with a confused look, letting her silky hair fall naturally, covering half of her beautiful face. She revealed an indescribable sense of fatigue. But she kept thinking about Prince Jing. I heard that Prince Jing was thrown rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves when he went out on the street yesterday. They were a group of powerless people. Prince Jing couldn't do anything with them. He could only come back to wash up again. It was a bit pitiful.

"Miss, there's something exciting happening in front of Liu's mansion!" Xiaoying's face was full of excitement as she trotted towards Zhu Yu's room.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yu immediately became interested. She quickly stood up from her chair and walked out impatiently: "What's going on? Take me to see it!"

Xiaoying hurriedly held Zhu Yu's arm and led her quickly to the gate of the mansion, happily recounting what happened outside the gate: "The prince was blocked by several troublemakers and was trapped at the gate of Liu's mansion and couldn't get in! Now there are circles of ordinary people outside who are watching the fun!"

Zhu Yu couldn't help but sigh, "Ah...Prince Jing is so unlucky to encounter such a thing.

Although I can't go and join in the fun, I can still go over and see if I can help.

After a while, the two arrived at the gate of Liu's mansion.

The place was crowded with people. Under the strict protection of a group of guards, Prince Jing looked indifferently at the dozen or so old, weak, women and children in mourning clothes, rolling on the ground crying and wailing. He pursed his lips tightly, and finally couldn't hold back the anger in his heart, and said coldly: "You keep saying that your dead relatives are pitiful. Well, I will ask you now, it has been so many days since the incident, have you ever gone to take a look at the bodies of those women?"

The people on the ground shuddered violently, as if frozen in place, their faces filled with terror. It was rumored that the fire was extremely horrific, and the deaths of the dead were horrible enough to give people nightmares. These people dared to come to Liu's mansion to cause trouble and challenge a noble prince. Obviously, they were not good people. They often abused their daughters-in-law, wives or daughters. Who dared to leave the body in the morgue, let alone collect the bodies?

"I... I have always been very weak and cannot withstand the slightest shock. How could I have the courage to walk into that place full of corpses to look for my poor daughter-in-law..." An old woman with a sarcastic face said with trembling lips, pretending to wipe away tears that did not exist at all.

"Isn't this Wang the butcher's mother? She has always treated Liu Xiaolan very harshly. The child must have sinned in her previous life by marrying into her family. Not to mention looking for her among the corpses, I'm afraid she wouldn't have the courage to take the body home even if it was Liu Xiaolan's own body." Someone in the crowd recognized the old woman and whispered to the person next to him.

A hooligans who were looking for trouble shouted in the crowd: "It is said that if the people who were burned to death were abused in their lifetime, they will turn into evil spirits and come back to seek revenge!"

When Wang the Butcher’s mother heard this, her face instantly turned as pale as paper and her body began to tremble uncontrollably like a fallen leaf in the wind.

Prince Jing had a keen sense of hearing and easily caught the whispers in the crowd. His gaze was like cold ice, shooting straight at the old woman, and his words were even more chilling: "Are you Liu Xiaolan's mother-in-law? According to the investigation by the officials, the reason why Liu Xiaolan was kidnapped by thieves was entirely due to you! Just because you suddenly had a whim in the middle of the night and insisted on eating a bowl of wontons from the street wonton stall, you forced her to go out in the pouring rain to buy it. If she didn't do it, you threatened to make her kneel in the yard until dawn. Poor Liu Xiaolan couldn't disobey your order, so she had to go out to buy it, but she didn't expect to fall into the hands of the criminals!"

When Wang the butcher's mother heard this, her body was shocked and she stood still. She thought to herself, when the officials came to inquire about this matter, she kept her mouth shut, so why did the government find out the truth now? You know, in Dai Viet, although family affairs such as abusing daughters-in-law are usually not reported, the court also has clear laws and regulations. Once verified, the punishment will be twenty strokes of the cane.

"Did you know that when Liu Xiaolan's body was discovered, it had been burned black and her original human form was completely unrecognizable! Her identity could only be confirmed by relying on the silver hairpin on her head that was burned and almost deformed? What is even more heartbreaking is that there are multiple signs of broken ribs on her body. The coroner asserted that these are old scars. So, please tell me, where did these old wounds come from?" Prince Jing's voice was icy cold, with undisguised anger and questioning.

Faced with such a fierce momentum, Wang the Butcher's mother showed her scoundrel nature. Despite being in such a panic, she still tried to use her usual tricks to shirk responsibility: "I don't know, I didn't do it, it has nothing to do with me!"

However, Prince Jing's expression did not change at all. He stared at Wang the Butcher's mother and said firmly, "Very good, since you know nothing, I will send government officials to visit your neighbors and doctors in this area. As long as you do it, it will be impossible to be flawless and without any loopholes!"

Zhu Yu, who was hiding behind the door, couldn't help but secretly exclaim in his heart: "My great prince is indeed majestic and imposing, and his actions are meticulous and thoughtful, without any flaws!"

At this moment, Wang the Butcher's mother, who was already extremely frightened, could no longer hold on under the threat of Prince Jing. She quickly changed her posture from lying on the ground to kneeling on both knees, her body shaking like a leaf in the wind, and she kept kowtowing to Prince Jing to apologize. After just a few kowtows, her forehead was broken and blood oozed out.

However, faced with such a scene, Prince Jing remained indifferent.
