After I became a passerby, I saved the villain's family
Chapter 16 Do You Know How Scary You Are?
Princess Ningyang is here? What is she doing in Baixianglou?
Jiang Cijin didn't know that Xiao Yujing could hear Jiang Ruoli's thoughts, and was worried that he would be exposed, so he quickly calmed down and said, "Your Highness, what did you want to tell me just now?"
Seeing that Jiang Cijin showed no change of expression, Xiao Yujing became more certain that he was the only one who could hear Jiang Ruoli's thoughts.
He coughed lightly and asked, "I was deeply impressed by the poem you wrote at the chrysanthemum viewing banquet. I wonder if Jiang Sanlang can write another one today?"
Jiang Ci Jin breathed a sigh of relief.
Sure enough, it was for this matter.
But he was prepared.
"Your Highness, to be honest, I am ashamed to talk about this matter."
Jiang Ci Jin was a little embarrassed.
"This poem was written by my youngest sister. However, she has not appeared in public for many years and is shy, so she asked me to recite it for her."
My goodness, you are not going to take back the reward, are you?
Xiao Yujing understood.
So that's how it is. I didn't expect that little chatterbox to have such talent.
Just as she was about to ask again, she heard a commotion outside, followed by Jiang Ruoli's panicked voice.
Jiang Ci Jin immediately became restless.
"Your Highness," the guard beside Xiao Yujing came in to report, "There is a woman outside the door, claiming to be the maid of the daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion, and she is here to look for Young Master Jiang."
Jiang Cijin immediately stood up and bowed, saying, "Your Highness, I will take my leave first."
Xiao Yujing nodded and said, "I will go with you."
Jiang Ci Jin was confused, but he didn't care about anything else at the moment, for fear that something might have happened to his younger sister.
The group hurriedly walked towards the easternmost wing.
As soon as she opened the door, she saw a huge vase thrown at Jiang Ruoli.
"Little sister!" Jiang Ci Jin exclaimed and stepped forward quickly.
But the person next to him was faster. He took two steps forward and with a sharp palm strike from his left hand, the vase was knocked to the side, barely avoiding Jiang Ruoli.
Jiang Ruoli looked at Xiao Yujing awkwardly, her mind still not coming to its senses.
"Are you okay, Your Highness?" Jiang Ci Jin hurried over and asked.
Xiao Yujing turned his wrist slightly and said, "It's okay, but my sleeve is just a little wet."
Jiang Ruoli looked at his left arm as he was talking, and saw a dark stain on the jade-white sleeve.
"Are you hurt anywhere?" The voice was full of charm, with a hint of youthful clarity.
Jiang Ruoli shook her head.
Unexpectedly, I was saved by the big boss.
He is so strong!
Xiao Yujing didn't know that in Jiang Ruoli's mind, his image had already become that of a strong man.
He looked down at Princess Ningyang and asked with concern, "Aunt, are you hurt?"
Princess Ningyang came back to her senses from the shock, looked at Jiang Ruoli, and said, "It's okay, thanks to Li'er for protecting me."
Xiao Yujing looked at Jiang Ruoli with a dark look in his eyes.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince..." Cheng Zong'an's eyes were full of fear and anxiety. Seeing Xiao Yujing was like seeing a flood and a beast.
When they heard Cheng Zong'an's voice, Wu Sanniang and Cheng Yixin, mother and daughter, were frightened.
This, this is actually His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!
He just called her aunt. Isn't the prince's aunt...
Xiao Yujing glanced coldly at the three members of the Cheng family, his eyes fell on Cheng Yixin, and he opened his thin lips slightly:
"How dare you attack our princess? Come, arrest him and send him to the government office to await your punishment!"
Cheng Yixin's face was ashen and she collapsed to the ground. Her throat seemed to be strangled and she could not make any sound. She allowed the two guards to drag her out.
"Xin'er! Xin'er!" Wu Sanniang was pressed to the ground by Qingying and watched her daughter being dragged away.
Cheng Zongan didn't even dare to look at the mother and daughter. He was trembling all over and sweating profusely. He didn't know how the situation suddenly turned out like this.
He knew very well that he was in a dead end.
I just hope that Princess Ningyang can keep the matter of the loan money a secret for the sake of their long-term relationship and not tell the Crown Prince, otherwise he will be doomed...
"Prince Consort." Xiao Yujing said in a cold voice.
Cheng Zongan shuddered.
"The imperial son-in-law, Commandant Cheng Zong'an, disregarded the laws of Dacheng and colluded with Risheng Bank to lend money at high interest rates. The amount was huge and he should be executed according to the law."
"Come here, take him to the Dali Temple Prison and wait for the emperor's decision."
Xiao Yujing's words cut off Cheng Zongan's last glimmer of hope.
He knelt and crawled towards Princess Ningyang, crying, "Yang'er! Yang'er, I was wrong, please save me! I will never dare to do it again!"
Princess Ningyang looked at the man on the ground. His former elegance was gone, and his tear-stained face was disgusting and ugly, making it difficult to look at him directly.
Just like her marriage, it was in tatters.
Princess Ningyang turned her head and stopped looking at him.
The guards quickly stepped forward and dragged Cheng Zongan out without mercy.
"Master! Master!" Wu Sanniang cried out, and was so excited that she fainted.
Xiao Yujing looked at Princess Ningyang, with a hint of guilt in his tone, "I'm really sorry, aunt. I should have reported this matter to my father for a decision. I really can't bear to see my aunt suffer shame, so I ask for your punishment."
Princess Ningyang waved her hands, looking tired, "Forget it, now that this has happened, I don't care about my reputation anymore."
[It turns out that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has also discovered that the Prince Consort has lent money at high interest. ]
[Does he know that the Sunrise Bank is backed by the Third Prince? ]
Xiao Yujing was surprised. She knew that too? !
[But the prince is probably still missing an important piece of evidence. ]
That’s right, Xiao Yujing only found out the money transactions between Cheng Zongan and Risheng Money House, but the flow of money he himself lent at high interest has not been found yet.
[Such an important thing, I remember it should be in the Duwei Mansion...]
Xiao Yujing couldn't help but glance at Jiang Ruoli, and it was the same as he had guessed.
When she met Xiao Yujing's gaze, Jiang Ruoli couldn't help but shudder.
[Shock! Why are you looking at me all of a sudden?]
[Don't just stare at people. Do you know how scary you are? ]
Xiao Yujing was speechless. Is he that scary?
Jiang Ci Jin broke out in a cold sweat as he listened from behind.
My little sister, it’s a good thing you thought about it in your heart. If you really told it out loud, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would twist your head off.
Xiao Yujing thought for a while, and said to Princess Ningyang, "Aunt, we are still missing an important piece of evidence to convict Cheng Zongan. I wonder if your nephew can send someone to search your house immediately? If it's too late, it might be destroyed by someone with ulterior motives."
Princess Ningyang thought of something and asked, "But what about the flow of loan sharks?"
"Exactly."
Princess Ningyang felt bitter. Could it be that even God couldn't bear to see this and wanted to help her?
"I understand." Princess Ningyang nodded. "This journal account has been found by my maid and is currently with me. I will personally go to the palace and deliver it to the emperor later."
Xiao Yujing understood what was going on when he heard this.
Princess Ningyang patted Jiang Ruoli's hand and said, "You are a good child, Li'er, for saving me in this critical moment without caring about your own safety."
Jiang Ruoli said sternly: "Aunt, this is my duty."
Princess Ningyang smiled at her gently.
"Aunt, your nephew will take you back." After saying that, he supported Princess Ningyang and walked out the door.
Jiang Ruoli and Jiang Cijin hurriedly bowed: "We respectfully send off Princess Ningyang and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
When reaching the door, Xiao Yujing turned around and gave Jiang Ruoli a meaningful look.
Jiang Ruoli: ???
baffling.
