Zhou Hongyang, who was lying on the ground, glared at Xie Lingxi resentfully:
"Xie Lingxi, you are obstructing the Criminal Department from handling the case, just wait..."
Xie Lingxi sneered, stepped forward and stepped down hard, breaking his second leg, "Okay, I'll wait for you."
"Ah——" Zhou Hongyang screamed and passed out from the pain.
Shen Wenyuan did not dare to say a word during the whole process. He hunched his neck and lowered his head like a quail, for fear of attracting Xie Lingxi's attention.
After watching Xie Lingxi and Jiang Rong enter Wanjuan Study Room for the first time, they breathed a sigh of relief and quickly ordered the servants to carry Zhou Hongyang back to Zhou's house.
Seeing the Zhou family, Shen Wenyuan changed his submissive attitude and said with indignation:
"Young Master Zhou is so miserable! This Northern Prince is arrogant, lawless, and bullying others too much!"
……
In Wanjuan Study Hall, lobby.
Due to the search just now, the place was rummaged through and the place was in a mess.
Qiuniang was very ashamed and came forward to plead guilty: "I failed in my duty and failed to protect the study..."
"You have done a good job. If you had not stopped him in time, the study would have been burned down, saving the study a lot of losses." Jiang Rong smiled slightly: "Everyone has done a good job in protecting us, and each person will be rewarded with three times the monthly payment."
"Thank you, Concubine!" Qiuniang received Jiang Rong's praise, she felt much more relaxed, and said hurriedly, "Thanks to Mr. Song Heng for stopping it in time. There was also a young man who came to buy books and acted bravely..."
The word "brave for justice", put together with Chi Moyan, is really, a bit weird.
When Jiang Rong came in just now, he saw Chi Moyan lying on a stretcher. At this time, he had been carried to the backyard and asked a doctor for treatment.
Qiuniang told the situation in detail, "In order to protect the study, Young Master Song blocked the West alone... Fortunately, the Young Master who bought the book blocked him..."
Jiang Rong listened quietly.
Song Heng was an upright person, so it was not surprising that he would rush out to protect the study.
But Chi Moyan...
His little trick of showing good will made Jiang Rong see fire clearly.
The person who killed Song Heng in his previous life risked his life to save him in this life.
It’s true, things are impermanent.
"Qiuniang, please ask a famous doctor to treat this person and send him some more supplements. Also prepare a generous gift." Jiang Rong ordered.
She didn't plan to see Chi Moyan at this time.
Because the information from Jiangnan has not been sent over yet.
She needs to decide what to do after understanding this person's life and past.
"Yes." Qiuniang accepted the order.
After Jiang Rong finished handling the matters in the study, he looked at Xie Lingxi, who was sitting quietly waiting for her, and smiled:
"Husband, let's go home."
"Um."
……
Study room.
After taking Chi Moyan's pulse, the doctor prescribed a prescription and said:
"The young man's health is not serious, he just has some skin injuries. Drink three doses of this medicine every day and he will be cured in a few days."
"Thank you, doctor!" Song Heng thanked him gratefully.
He and the handymen carried the injured Chi Moyan to the guest room.
"Thank you for saving me, brother. I'm Song Heng. Do you know your name?" Song Heng asked, cupping his fists.
Chi Moyan was lying on the couch, with the scene he just saw echoing in his mind.
How arrogant the prince of the Northern Palace is to not take Liubu into consideration.
He must work hard to hold on to such a backer!
"Brother Song, you're welcome. I'm Chi Moyan, but I just can't bear to see what the Punishment Department is doing..." Chi Moyan responded politely with a smile.
Song Heng's tone was a little worried unconsciously:
"The Ministry of Punishment has a clever name, but after all, the teacher has a good reputation and he has a reason. If you go to file a complaint and say that the prince obstructed law enforcement and despised the court, this crime is not a small crime..."
……
"Xie Lingxi despised the imperial court and obstructed law enforcement. My son reminded him that such behavior was inappropriate, but he broke his legs. He has no regard for the imperial court and your majesty. I beg your majesty to punish him severely!" Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment knelt at the imperial court. Before, I cried with snot and tears.
The emperor listened to his complaints with a majestic look on his face, and there were several memorials spread out on the table.
But Zhou Shangshu didn't know that underneath this memorial was a freshly released "Qianqiu·Volume 2".
He knew the whole story of this matter better than Zhou Shangshu.
Ming Xinsi stares at Beiwang Mansion from morning to night every day, and every move of the Xie family is under his nose.
How could he not know who Xie Lingxi was?
Still contemptuous of the imperial court?
Tsk, it's just two powerful men fighting fiercely.
Zhou Hongyang relied on the fact that his father was the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, and thought that setting up a name would make him angry. However, Xie Lingxi, an unreasonable gangster, messed up the situation.
But seeing Zhou Shangshu crying like this, the emperor played along without hesitation:
"Yes, this son's behavior is ridiculous and lawless, and he should be severely punished. Send an order to the Northern Palace to summon Xie Lingxi to enter the palace immediately!"
The eunuch was ordered to retreat.
Zhou Shangshu was overjoyed and cried even louder.
The eunuch Bingbi who was waiting on the pen and ink at the side was slightly moved. His Majesty was talking about summoning him into the palace this time...
It's not about being captured and brought into the palace.
It seems that it is still the same as before, pick it up high and put it down gently.
Your Majesty is really doting on the Northern Prince.
Jiang Rong and Xie Lingxi had just returned to the North Palace when someone from the palace summoned them, so they went to the palace together again.
"Your Majesty, the Prince of the North and his wife have arrived outside the palace." the eunuch reported.
The emperor's eyes flashed, "Xiang them to come in."
This Jiang Rong dared to come and accept the crime together with Xie Lingxi. It is no wonder that this dandy was obsessed with everything. He was indeed quite capable.
But no matter how good a woman is, she is just a favor. It is a good thing to make Xie Lingxi indulge in female sex.
"I (the minister's wife) pays homage to Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty!" Jiang Rong and Xie Lingxi saluted together.
The emperor glanced at Jiang Rong and then looked at Xie Lingxi and said:
"The Minister of Punishment sued you for obstructing law enforcement, contempt for the court, and beating his son. Do you know the crime?"
"I was the one who beat his son." Xie Lingxi admitted frankly, and then asked confidently: "But what does this have to do with contempt for the court? I only despise his son."
These words and deeds perfectly fit the domineering, ignorant and absurd playboy.
The emperor couldn't help laughing and shook his head, "The Ministry of Punishment represents the imperial court, and the Ministry of Punishment enforces the law, but you obstruct it... Forget it, I know you didn't mean it, but you were eager to protect your wife. Although it is illegal, it is reasonable, so I will follow it. Handle lightly.”
"Your Majesty..." Zhou Shangshu cried out urgently and sadly.
"Your Majesty!" Xie Lingxi was more anxious than him and said righteously: "I don't accept it! Zhou Hongyang has a grudge against me, so he wants to arrest my wife. We are fighting each other for personal grudges, what does it have to do with obstructing law enforcement?"
"The Minister of Punishment is his father, so he can arrest whoever he wants. Doesn't the Punishment Ministry represent Zhou Shangshu? Why does he represent the imperial court again? I don't accept it! Your Majesty cannot convict me of arbitrary charges!"
There was silence in the hall, and you could hear a needle drop.
Zhou Shangshu broke out in cold sweat on his forehead. As he said, wouldn't this cost him his life?
