Chapter 227 Fu Lang is a complainant (13)

  Su Qiruo's voice changed suddenly, and he looked at Wen Qingyou and asked, "What do you think, Mr. Wen?"

   "Forgive me, Your Highness. Qingyou didn't know that it was His Highness's person, and that's why there was a misunderstanding. If she knew it was His Highness's person, Qingyou would definitely not dare to ask the people below to speak up and blame her."

  Wen Qingyou's eyes turned red, and she looked at Su Qiruo pitifully.

   With a flash of her eyes, she finally saw Ling Yuheng who was sitting beside her.

   "According to Mr. Wen, the people in this hall can't be moved. If ordinary people can let you bully?"

  The corner of Su Qiruo's mouth twitched into a sneer, Wen Yan's son is really an idiot.

   "His Royal Highness calm down, the child has nothing to do with it, I will plead guilty to you on her behalf, and I hope His Highness will show mercy."

  Wen Yan reached out and pulled Wen Qingyou's sleeve, then kowtowed to Su Qiruo.

   "Apology to the hall? The people in the hall were injured by Mr. Wen, and were insulted by Mr. Wen and his servants. I don't know how City Lord Wen intends to plead guilty to the hall?"

  Su Qiruo just finished speaking, Wen Qingyou straightened up and pointed at Ling Yuheng.

   "The courtier has given him money before."

  Ling Yuheng was startled for a moment, then remembered the bag of money Wen Qingyou gave him, and waved to Xiaoxi who was standing outside the door.

  Xiaoxi immediately went in and put the purse up, and Ling Yuheng put the purse in front of Su Qiruo.

   "Sister, he gave it to you. It was thrown at Heng'er's feet, and Xiaoxi picked it up. He also said that Heng'er deliberately ran into his carriage to blackmail people."

  After Ling Yuheng finished speaking, he shook his injured arm in the direction of Su Qiruo.

  Wen Qingyou was stunned by Ling Yuheng's address. This little thing actually called His Highness Sister. Could it be that he is the prince?

  Wen Yan was even more frightened. Her son was usually a bit domineering, but now he managed to offend a nobleman in the palace, and he was the prince brought out by His Highness the Fifth Highness.

   Isn't this poking a hornet's nest?

   "Did Mr. Wen think that the people in this hall can still be greedy for your few taels of silver?"

  With a wave of Su Qiruo's palm, the purse rolled down in front of Wen Qingyou's eyes, causing him to shrink back in fright.

  Wen Yan is also a cunning and cunning person after all, so he hurriedly stepped forward on his knees, holding the purse with both hands and offering it to Ling Yuheng.

   "The child should be beaten, but he dared to hurt His Royal Highness, and I hope that His Highness will show mercy. After the official returns, he will be disciplined properly, and he will not be asked to do such evil things again."

  Wen Yan's voice shocked everyone in the hall. Ling Yuheng clenched his fingers tightly and secretly looked at Su Qiruo, wondering how the person in front of him knew his identity.

  Gu Yu was also shocked, but quickly calmed down again. After all, the little beggar called his master and sister just now, and City Master Wen probably misunderstood.

  Su Qiruo couldn't stop laughing secretly in her heart, it was so wrong that Wen Yan was the first to expose the identity of the little prince.

  But as long as he doesn't say it, it's just a misunderstanding.

   But now Su Qiruo has no intention of explaining, she just wants to make Wenyan mother and son afraid, otherwise the emperor of Yucheng really thinks they are easy to bully!

  Su Qiruo raised his hand and pulled Ling Yuheng's injured arm, pointed to the hole on the sleeve where the elbow was worn out, and said to Wenyan: "City Master Wen can see clearly, what did Heng'er's arm look like when it fell?"

  Wen Yan didn't expect to throw His Royal Highness like this. When she was in the study, Wen Qingyou clearly told her that she just accidentally rubbed against her, and she wasn't injured.

   "It's all the child's fault."

  Wen Yan finished speaking, and then kicked Wen Qingyou at the side,

   "Nizi, hurry up and kowtow to His Highness to apologize."

  Wen Yan knew that this matter might not be so easy to deal with. It would be okay if there was no injury and only a quarrel. After all, Cui Zhu was also slapped.

   But now that they have hurt their golden branches and jade leaves, if the emperor blames them, their Wen family will really have to go around.

   "There is also the evil slave in your mansion, who keeps calling the guards of this hall as troublemakers, but this hall does not know when a servant has such a great prestige."

  What else can you do? It's a dog's power!

   "It's all the subordinate officials who are not strict in running the family. After returning to the mansion, the subordinate officials asked someone to sell the evil slave."

  Wen Yan knelt until her knees hurt, and the master didn't ask her to get up.

  But when she thought of the good deeds her son had done, she didn't dare to get up.

  As long as His Royal Highness Fifth can calm down, she is willing to let her kneel for another two hours.

   Cui Zhu, whose acupuncture points were touched by Gu Yu, was standing in the yard. Although he couldn't hear the words in the house clearly, seeing the city lord and the young master kneeling on the ground without getting up, he knew that he had offended the nobleman today.

  Thinking of the words he said before, Cuizhu felt his heart go cold.

  In order to keep the young master, the city lord will definitely take him under the knife.

"Huaguo stipulates that no one is allowed to ride horses on the main street, even the empress dowager and this hall, and they dare not even let the servants run wild on the streets of the capital. Yucheng is the place where all places of business must pass. As a The lord of the city, not only does not restrain his own son, but also makes the servants in the mansion arrogant and domineering, insulting the court officials, this hall sees that you have done enough as the city lord!"

  Su Qiruo snorted coldly, saying that the green dragon does not suppress the snake, but now that the poisonous snake has bitten her, how can she condone it?

   "Your Highness, calm down, Your Highness, calm down!"

  Wen Yan knelt on the ground and kept pleading guilty. She didn't expect such a thing to happen today.

  Riding a horse in the street is not a serious crime, but who told them to bump into the current prince?

  If the case was brought to the capital, the emperor might not be able to spare her lightly.

  In the past, I only heard that this ancestor had a bad temper, but when I saw him today, it was really scary.

   "The lower officials know their mistakes. After the lower officials go back, they must strictly discipline the people in the mansion, and dare not ask them to go out to cause trouble."

  Wen Yan didn't dare to refute, the princess knew these things better than them, if she dared to deny it, the consequences would be even more unimaginable.

   It's better to admit it honestly, but you can get a lighter punishment.

  Seeing that Wen Yan's attitude is not bad, Su Qiruo doesn't have any substantive evidence in his hand to take her down in one fell swoop, and he can't really do anything to her.

   Even if Wen Yan was to be removed from the position of city lord, that would have to wait for her to collect the evidence and send it to the capital for an order from the emperor.

   But judging from the behavior of Wen Yan's son and that servant, their house will definitely not be clean either.

  Just wait until she collects enough evidence and send it directly to the East Palace, then she will take care of this wolf in sheep's clothing.

   "Since this is the case, in view of the fact that City Master Wen has served the court for many years, this hall will give them another chance."

  Su Qiruo waved at Gu Yu, and Gu Yu immediately went out to untie the acupoints for Cui Zhu.

  Cuizhu's legs went limp, and he collapsed on the ground.

  Xiaoxi stepped forward and half-handled and half-dragged him into the house. Cuizhu knelt on the ground trembling all over, unable to utter a word of pleading.
