Chapter 12 Getting Married Is Impossible
"Go report this to the authorities immediately! Under the clear blue sky, the Earl of Zhongqin's mansion has actually allowed its servants to rob and kill to cover up their crimes! It's utterly lawless!" Jin Shuai shouted angrily.
No sooner had he finished speaking than a quick-witted attendant beside him darted out like an arrow and disappeared into the crowd in the blink of an eye. Meanwhile, Yuan Wenchun panicked instantly. He had come with the joy of welcoming the bride and taking the opportunity to sow discord among his younger brother, but not only had he failed to win the bride, but his generous dowry had also been snatched away. Now, if they were to get involved in a lawsuit, although the Yuan family wasn't afraid, they would likely become the laughingstock of the entire city for a year.
“Handsome guy…can we sit down and have a proper discussion? After all, this is just a conflict between two families of servants, you see…” Yuan Wenchun said anxiously.
However, Jin Shuai interrupted him without hesitation: "No need to say more, we'll talk about everything after the prefect arrives!" After saying that, he turned away and ignored Yuan Wenchun, talking quietly with his other attendants.
Not long after, the Prefect of Yangzhou arrived at the scene in a hurry, leading a group of imposing yamen runners. Looking at the Prefect's bewildered expression, Xiao Jinshuai couldn't help but smile wryly, but maintained a serious demeanor on the surface.
The prefect of Yangzhou strode up to Jin Shuai, bowed respectfully, and cautiously asked, "Young sir, this case involves two powerful families, and I truly have no authority over it!"
Jin Shuai's lips curled up slightly, revealing a sly smile, as he replied, "Your Excellency, I know you only require that the details of the matter be recorded and reported truthfully. Remember, you must report the truth! Hehehe..." After saying that, Jin Shuai couldn't help but chuckle softly.

At this moment, in the main hall of the Sheng family, Sheng Hong was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, looking at Old Madam Sheng and asking, "Mother, what should we do? The Sheng family has lost all face this time!"
Wang Ruofu's face was full of sorrow. She said indignantly, "It's all because of Changfeng's arrogant and ignorant nature. He insisted on fighting with others and ruined what was supposed to be a joyous wedding. I wonder if my poor Hua'er will be bullied to death after marrying into the Yuan family!" Wang Ruofu couldn't help but feel sad and her eyes reddened.
Old Madam Sheng frowned slightly, glanced at the excited Madam Wang beside her, and then turned to Sheng Hong and instructed, "Go and invite them all in."
Sheng Hong dared not delay and hurriedly sent a servant to the front yard to invite everyone to the main hall for discussion.
The front yard was bustling with activity. The officials, their expressions serious, were carefully questioning those involved and meticulously recording every detail. Meanwhile, those who had witnessed the entire incident were whispering and discussing amongst themselves.
Just then, a servant rushed over and reported that Old Madam Sheng had invited the Earl's Mansion, the Prefect, and Marshal Jin to the main hall for a meeting.
Upon seeing the newcomers at the entrance of the main hall, Sheng Hong quickly rose and stepped forward with a bitter smile on his face. He greeted the prefect and said, "Lord Liu, I am truly sorry to have made you laugh. Please come inside and have a chat."
The prefect waved his hand and comforted him, "Lord Sheng, there's no need to be so polite. It's more important to solve the immediate problem first." With that, they walked into the main hall together.
After everyone took their seats, Jin Shuai looked up and found that Old Madam Sheng was staring intently at him. However, Jin Shuai thought to himself, "Hmph, it's no use staring at me. I'm here today specifically to cause trouble. There's no way I'm going to get married!" A barely perceptible sneer appeared on his lips.
