After rebirth, I married the emperor's uncle and overthrew my ex-husband's kingdom

"Young Master Lu."

The man bowed to him politely.

Last time at the dock, Xiaoju fell into the water and was saved by him. Lu Chen nodded at him and cast a puzzled look at Lu Yi, "Uncle Yi, what is this?"

"I am from Qingzhou. My surname is Zhuang and my given name is Yao. I am the young master of Zhuangjiabao in Zhuang County. I came here today to report that the son of Yong'an Marquis Jiang Hui colluded with the county magistrate to seize a thousand acres of my family's good land and killed thirty-six people in my family."

Zhuang Yao lifted his robe, knelt on the ground, and banged his head on the ground, "I beg the Duke of Zhenguo to do justice for me!"

"Thirty-six lives were lost. Such a serious case has never been reported to the Qingzhou prefecture!"

Not only Lu Chen was shocked, the old lady and Sun also looked solemn after hearing this.

Sun couldn't help but exclaimed, "The Qingzhou prefect is the third son of the Bai family, and he also helped to conceal the truth?"

"Old Qiao and Bai Yanlang are bent on getting close to the prince. I didn't expect that the third son of the Bai family is also the prince's man." The old lady frowned, her heart sank a little, "In this case, Prince Rong is also obedient to the prince."

Lu Chen looked at Zhuang Yao on the ground with a heavy expression, "Do you have any evidence?"

If it is confirmed that Jiang Hui was responsible for this, even the Crown Prince will not be able to escape blame!

"No, I only heard it with my own ears and saw it with my own eyes. There is no actual evidence."

Zhuang Yao was very excited. "That day, I went out drinking with my classmates and came back at midnight. I saw a big fire in my house. When I was about to call for help to put out the fire, I saw the county magistrate of Zhuang County talking to someone. I saw it with my own eyes and heard it with my own ears. The person he was talking about was the son of the Marquis of Yong'an!"

The old lady asked in a deep voice: "Have you ever gone to the Qingzhou prefect to report the case?"

Zhuang Yao shook his head. "I also wanted to report the case to the prefect before, but that day I happened to see the magistrate of Zhuang County and a young man coming out of the restaurant with the prefect. I immediately gave up the idea and came to the capital incognito."

Lu Chen knew Jiang Hui's character and comforted him, "I will have someone investigate this matter. You should hide your identity well and don't let anyone find out."

"I know."

Zhuang Yao was not stupid. He originally had fair skin, but in order to hide his skin from others, he tanned it to make it darker, thus avoiding many investigations.

After arriving in the capital, in addition to working as a laborer at the dock to earn some money to make a living, he also asked people about various things happening in the capital.

When he saw Bai Youyou that day, he recognized at a glance that Bai Youyou was of extraordinary status, otherwise, he would not dare to take the risk to save her.

While they were worrying here, they found out that Jiang Hui had gone to Qingzhou last year and had done such a thing. They wanted to strangle this rebellious son to death!

"You bastard!"

He kicked Jiang Hui on the shoulder, veins on his forehead bulging slightly, "Thirty-six lives, how dare you?!"

Jiang Hui fell to the ground, holding the place where he was kicked and grimacing, "How can this be blamed on me? It's those bastards who don't know what's good for them! I asked someone to bring silver to buy it, but they refused to sell it. If that wasn't the case, why would I have to use this method?"

"You still don't repent!!"

Yong'an Hou's chest rose and fell violently. He glared at him with hatred, his eyes bloodshot. "Do you know that once this matter is exposed, even your cousin, the Crown Prince, will not be able to protect you!"

"Qingzhou is thousands of miles away. Besides, those people are dead. No one will report it. What is there to be afraid of?"

Jiang Hui sat on the ground rubbing his shoulders, looking nonchalant.

"Didn't you say that the young master of the Zhuang family hasn't been found yet?"

Seeing that he still had no fear, Marquis Yong'an took a quick step forward, grabbed him by the collar, and slapped him in the face with his big palm.

"You bastard, are you really that bold? Didn't I tell you in person not to cause any death?!"

"You turned a deaf ear to my words?!"

Yong'an Hou cursed and then slapped Jiang Hui. After a fight between the two big guys, Jiang Hui only felt a buzzing sound in his head.

"Come back!!"

The wife of Marquis Yong'an rushed over and saw blood oozing from the corner of Jiang Hui's mouth. She immediately shouted and rushed towards Marquis Yong'an.

Marquis Yong'an was knocked off balance by the collision and lost some of his anger. He threw the stunned Jiang Hui to the ground.

"It's all because of you. Now it's totally lawless!"

"He is still young. Can't you just talk to him calmly?" Madam Yong'an hugged Jiang Hui, her face full of heartache. "You are so harsh!"

"Speak well?"

The courtyard had long been cleared of servants. Yong'an Hou pointed at Jiang Hui with a shaking finger, and was so angry that he spoke for a long time, "This little bastard, do you know what he did in Qingzhou?"

"He just likes to buy some farms and shops. What else can he do?"

The wife of Marquis Yong'an was the same as Jiang Hui and did not take it seriously.

Not to mention the Crown Prince and the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion, even her mother's family, the Prince Rui's Mansion, these small matters can be handled by anyone.

"Do you think I would get so angry just because you forced me to buy or sell a farm or a shop?"

Marquis Yong'an was so angry that he trembled when he saw the woman, who was of noble status but jealous, stupid and arrogant.

She has beauty and status but no brains at all. She only knows how to spoil her only son, and now she has raised him to have such a character.

No wonder the old people say marry a virtuous wife and marry a beautiful concubine!

"This bastard has thirty-six lives on his hands!!!"

"what?!"

The wife of Marquis Yong'an's hand, which was holding Jiang Hui, trembled and she stared with disbelief.

"Ask him yourself!"

As soon as Marquis Yong'an finished speaking, before his wife could open her mouth, the cold and angry voice of the Crown Prince came from outside the door.

"I'm here to ask!!"

"Prince!"

The wife of Marquis Yong'an was the legitimate daughter of Prince Rui and had the status of a princess. The prince walked up to her with a cold look, "Princess Suhua, do you need me to ask you to leave?"

She was even unwilling to call her aunt. The expression on Princess Suhua's face froze and she looked at Marquis Yong'an pleadingly.

"They are all good sons you have raised!"

Yong'an Hou knew that the prince was really angry this time, and slapped Su Hua in the face, who was still stunned, and said, "Get out of here!"

Prince Rui's Mansion has already declined, and if it wants to regain its former glory in the future, it has to rely on the Crown Prince.

Princess Suhua stood up with her face covered, glanced worriedly at her only son lying on the ground, and left with a heavy heart.

Without her presence, the prince slowly rolled up his sleeves, took off the jade ring on his finger, and walked step by step to Jiang Hui.

"Prince..."

"Marquis Yong'an wants to come by himself?"

The prince glanced at him expressionlessly, but there was a frightening coldness in his sparkling eyes.

Marquis Yong'an's heart trembled, and his hands hanging on both sides trembled unconsciously. He turned his head away, not daring to look the prince in the eye.

"For my uncle's sake, please spare his life."

"Crown Prince Cousin, I know I was wrong. I won't dare to do it again..."

Looking at the prince walking towards him step by step, Jiang Hui finally felt the word "fear".
