After rebirth, I married the emperor's uncle and overthrew my ex-husband's kingdom
Chapter 130: I was removed from the list. Are you happy now?
"Brother, give me three days and I'll think of a solution."
"Tell me when you've made up your mind."
Bai Qingyu knew his indecisive nature and did not urge him. He just glanced at Bai Muchen indifferently and walked out the door.
Bai Muchen sat on the ground in a daze. Bai Yanlang looked at him with a mixture of love and hate.
"Why don't you go back and pack your things? Do you really want to be kicked out?!"
"father--"
Bai Muchen looked up pitifully, tears in his eyes.
"If you don't consider the consequences before you act, what's the point of calling me dad now? Now that things have come to this, you should stay at your grandparents' house from now on!"
Bai Yanlang yelled a few words, then left angrily.
On the other side, when Aunt Qiao heard that Bai Muchen and his sons were called to the ancestral hall, she became uneasy.
"Auntie, something bad has happened!"
Chunliu ran in breathlessly. Aunt Qiao's heart tightened, and she hurried forward and asked, "Hurry up and tell me."
"Just now the housekeeper said that the Third Young Master has been removed from the family tree. He will no longer be the Young Master of the Marquisate from now on. His life and death have nothing to do with the Marquisate."
"what?!"
Aunt Qiao was struck by lightning. She covered her forehead with her hands and felt her vision go dark. She staggered and fell backwards.
"Auntie!"
Chunliu was startled. She reached out to grab her, but was a step too slow.
"boom!"
Aunt Qiao's head hit the table behind her with a loud bang.
The intense pain made her mind clear instantly. Without waiting for Chunliu to support her, she staggered to her feet.
"Where is the master? Where is the master?"
"I will go find it right away."
As soon as Chunliu walked out of the door, she saw Bai Yanlang striding towards her with a gloomy face. She quickly shouted into the house, "Auntie, the master is here."
Aunt Qiao came out from behind the curtain, grabbing Bai Yanlang's sleeve as if she had lost her parents, and asked in a trembling voice, "My husband, was Mu Chen really expelled from the clan by the clan leader?"
"You've been removed from the list. Are you happy now?"
Bai Yanlang pushed her away forcefully and watched Aunt Qiao fall to the ground. There was no longer the tenderness and affection in his eyes as before, only deep disgust and hatred.
How could he be so blinded by shit that he fell in love with such a woman?
Why did I believe her nonsense and think that she was well-educated, gentle, virtuous, and a good parent?
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. He kicked Aunt Qiao hard on the shoulder and cursed angrily, "You ignorant and stupid woman, Muchen is like this now because of you!!"
Aunt Qiao was kicked by her and fell to the ground but quickly got up.
She hugged Bai Yanlang's calf, tears streaming down her face, "My dear husband, all the mistakes are my fault. Mu Chen is still young, he will change in the future, please find a way to help him!"
"What else can we do now?!"
Bai Yanlang wanted to pull his legs back, but Aunt Qiao was holding him too tightly, and he couldn't get them free after three attempts.
I was too lazy to move and just let her hold me.
"Now expelling him from the family tree is a small matter. If someone from the Zhenguo Mansion gets the contract in the hands of Manager Chen and sends him to the authorities for prosecution, he will be sentenced!"
Those who defraud officials or private individuals to obtain money or property shall be treated as thieves.
Exile is a minor punishment, but if it is caning, your life will be in danger!
Aunt Qiao was also familiar with the laws of the Great Zhou. Her body trembled violently, and the strength in her hands couldn't help but loosen.
"What, what should I do?"
"What else can we do?" Bai Yanlang took the opportunity to pull back his legs. "Hurry up and pack his things for him, send him out of the capital, and come back after this matter has settled down!"
"I, I'm going right now!"
Aunt Qiao's body was shaking. She just stood up but fell back again. Chunliu stepped forward to support her and she managed to stand firmly with the help of force.
Bai Yanlang was still making his wishful thinking, but unfortunately Bai Youyou had already guarded against this trick. After coming out of the ancestral hall, he immediately took the evidence to Jingzhao Yin.
When Lord Xu saw the person beating the drum for reporting crimes, the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily.
"Miss Bai, why are you here today?"
Bai Youyou was very familiar with the place, "Master Xu, I'm here to report a crime."
"What grievance have you suffered?"
"Bai Muchen and Chen, the manager of Lao Zhang's gambling house, designed to defraud my second brother Bai Luochuan of 100,000 taels of silver. Lord Xu, please take charge of this matter for the people!"
Lord Xu from Lao Zhang's gambling house knew that the property was under the name of Marquis Yong'an. Although it was said to belong to Marquis Yong'an, it actually belonged to the prince.
His pupils shrank, and his tone suddenly became sharp, "Do you have any evidence?"
"Have."
Bai Youyou pulled out the contract signed by Manager Chen and Bai Muchen from his sleeve. The officer walked over, took it, and handed it respectfully to Lord Xu.
"Is this contract real?"
Lord Xu read it carefully, his expression somewhat heavy.
This girl really knows how to give him problems. Lao Zhang's gambling house involves the Marquis of Yong'an. How can he, a third-rank Jingzhao Yin, catch a first-rank marquis?
"Of course it's real. I dare not forge this thing. It's a felony."
Bai Youyou looked serious, and Lord Xu finally let go of the worry that had been hanging in his stomach.
"You guys go down first."
He waved away the people in the court, stepped down from the case, and stood in front of Bai Youyou, his face full of helplessness, "Girl, you only know how to make things difficult for your Uncle Xu."
"Uncle Xu, you are the most upright judge in the capital." Bai Youyou pointed at the four characters 'Integrity and Honesty' on the plaque of the court with an innocent look on his face. "When the people have grievances, they have to look for you to administer justice, right?"
Lord Xu glared at her unhappily, "Marquis Yong'an is a first-rank marquis, and I'm just a third-rank Jingzhao Yin. Do you think I can try this case?"
Bai Youyou didn't answer him, but pointed at the contract in his hand, moved closer to him, and whispered, "Do you know who gave me this?"
Lord Xu glanced at her sideways, asking inquiries with his eyes.
"It's the Third Prince."
Bai Youyou raised her eyebrows at him mischievously after she finished speaking, "Uncle Xu, if this matter is handled well, promotion and wealth will be just around the corner!"
Lord Xu looked at Bai Youyou's cunning appearance and couldn't help but slap her on the back of the head. "Girl, why don't you say that if this matter is not handled well, your uncle Xu's official hat will be in jeopardy."
"I know Uncle Xu's ability. This matter is difficult for you, but it is not too difficult."
The Jingzhao Yin was appointed by the emperor himself. He not only managed the administrative affairs and judicial trials of the capital, but also had the power to supervise all officials.
The person who sits in this position must be trusted and valued by the emperor. Even a first-rank marquis has to give him 70% respect when he sees him.
Bai Youyou knew this long before she came, otherwise how could she dare to take out such important evidence.
"You really know how to cause trouble for your Uncle Xu."
Lord Xu took the evidence in his hand and rolled his eyes at her.
If this matter is done well, it will offend the prince; if it is not done well, it will damage his reputation. It is a thankless task in the end.
Bai Youyou shrank her neck and smiled flatteringly, "I'm afraid Bai Muchen is going to pack up and escape. Please quickly send someone to guard the city gate and don't let him get away."
"What's going on in your family again?"
