Chapter 247: Everything was done by me alone, and had nothing to do with Prefect Ye

"You farted!"

Even Governor Ye, who held an official position, was forced to swear by Old Man Yang.

He had clearly never seen him before, so where did this person come from?

Old man Ouyang was too lazy to listen to his nonsense and gloated:

"Let's not talk about other charges for now. Just say that you sent someone to assassinate the prince. That's a capital crime."

"When did I ever send someone to assassinate the prince?"

Prefect Ye was even more confused. Even if he had a hundred guts, he would not dare to kill Song Jiuyuan before knowing all of his cards.

After all... he is a prince, and assassinating him is a serious crime.

Of course the most important thing is that he was afraid that Song Jiuyuan would mess with him!

Qi Chu pointed at Boss Peng speechlessly, "Hey, isn't the person you invited here?"

Prefect Ye: !!!

He was completely stunned, but he didn't dare to question Boss Peng in front of everyone, otherwise he would be digging his own grave.

His shock and confusion were seen by Jiang Wan and Song Jiuyuan. For a moment, they were not sure whether Governor Ye's acting skills were too good.

Or maybe I really don’t know about this, it’s hard to say.

"Your Majesty, I really did not arrange for anyone to assassinate you!"

Prefect Ye knelt in front of Song Jiuyuan in a daze, his heart sank.

What the hell is going on?

"Come here, detain him first."

Song Jiuyuan's cold words made Governor Ye's body numb, and he looked at his colleagues as if asking for help.

However, it was of no use. No one dared to offend Song Jiuyuan at this moment.

Everyone knew that Song Jiuyuan was trying to show them a warning so that he could take advantage of the opportunity to control Jiuzhou.

Prefect Ye was extremely angry, and suddenly glared at Boss Peng fiercely, "Tell me, who sent you to assassinate the prince?"

Boss Peng remained silent. Prefect Ye was annoyed. What could be more infuriating than someone who was obviously his man but was helping others do things?

The most important thing is that he has to take the blame for the poor performance.

Seeing him being aggressive, Song Jiuchi couldn't help but sneered, "I said, you did it, so that's what you did.

You don't have to pretend in front of us. He is your man, can he do things for others?"

Really good at helping others!

A mouthful of blood was stuck in Magistrate Ye's throat and suddenly spurted out. The aggrieved and forbearing Ye Huan finally couldn't bear it anymore.

She dropped the walnut in her hand, ran to Governor Ye, helped him up, and said worriedly:

"Dad, how are you?"

"Huan Huan."

Prefect Ye was now speechless and could only look at Song Jiuyuan pleadingly.

Ye Huan understood what his father meant and hurriedly knelt in front of Song Jiuyuan.

"Your Majesty, considering my father is vomiting blood, can you please not lock him up for now?"

"If you get sick, you don't have to pay the price for the wrong things you did?"

Qi Chu was a man who hated evil, and he hated corrupt officials like Governor Ye who plundered the people.

Song Jiuchi once again agreed with her words, which was very rare, "Master Ye should go to jail and think about the crime he has committed.

If you are sensible, my elder brother might be able to show some mercy to you, otherwise you will be executed along with your entire family."

His few words made Ye Huan stagger, and she held the hand of Governor Ye.

"Dad, you really..."

"I don't!"

Governor Ye yelled, and couldn't help but worry about his family. He held Ye Huan's hand, his eyes full of pity.

Boss Peng on the side suddenly widened his eyes and asked in confusion: "You mean that the entire Ye family will be executed?"

"Assassinating the prince is no small crime."

Jiang Wan reminded her quietly, and Ye Huan cried even harder.

The tears fell one by one, it was really pitiful.

Boss Peng seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly said loudly: "Your Majesty, I did everything alone, and it has nothing to do with Prefect Ye."

Everyone:!!!

Just as Yang Erniu was about to speak, Boss Peng interrupted him and said, "I did work for Prefect Ye before.

But we had a falling out half a month ago, and he asked me to stop and retire, but I didn't want to.

Later, when I learned that Your Majesty was coming to Jiuzhou, I thought of giving him some trouble! I didn’t think of killing anyone, I just wanted to cause him trouble on purpose.”

"Do you think we will believe you?"

Jiang Wan couldn't help but roll her eyes, and Qi Chu said bluntly:

"When you heard that the Ye family was going to be confiscated, you changed your attitude. Now you say you hate him. Aren't you being inconsistent?"

Not to mention other people, even Magistrate Ye himself was confused by Boss Peng.

However, he was slightly relieved that someone could take the blame for him.

Peng Lao Da said hurriedly: "Lord Ye has been kind to me. Although I resent him for ungratefully crossing the river, I don't hate him enough to execute his entire family.

Anyway, I am alone, so I will die if I want to."

His indifferent tone confused Prefect Ye. How could such a treacherous man like Boss Peng be willing to die for him?

Could this be another conspiracy of his?

However, Ye Huan quickly understood what Boss Peng meant, and gently pressed down on Governor Ye's hand to prevent him from speaking.

"Take him away first."

Song Jiuyuan rubbed his brows tiredly, "President Liu, I'll leave this matter to you.

If there is any mistake, I will hold you accountable."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Pan Liu stood up, respectfully accepted the task given by Song Jiuyuan, and calmed his mind.

Song Jiuyuan also sent Song Yi and Qingshan to supervise to prevent them from having any private contact.

Seeing Boss Peng being taken away, he couldn't help but glance at Ye Huan.

But Governor Ye and Ye Huan did not dare to look up at him.

Jiang Wan saw this little action clearly. She curled her lips playfully and watched Governor Ye and the others being taken away.

It seemed that there was no need to continue this so-called welcoming party.

Liu Tongpan stepped forward enthusiastically, "Your Highness, the courtyard for your temporary residence has been prepared for you."

Although this was Song Jiuyuan's first time here, there were villas in Jiuzhou where only royal relatives and nobles could live.

This was the place where the emperor lived and worked when he went on military campaigns. Now it is just the right place for Song Jiuyuan to stay temporarily.

Song Jiuyuan was not polite either. Since he had been sent to such a remote place by the dog emperor, he had no intention of being restrained and polite as before.

So the group followed Judge Liu out of the courtyard and followed him to the future "Royal Palace."

As for the Tongzhi and others, they were worried about the women at home, so Song Jiuyuan simply let them go.

But after these people left, he made a gesture and the secret guards followed quietly.

Now that night had fallen, Judge Liu sent the people to the yard and hurriedly said goodbye.

This is a house located on the main street, not far from the government office. The courtyard is unique and elegant.

Although it is not as luxurious as the royal palace in Kyoto, it is already very good in a place like Kyushu.

Everyone entered the yard, and Song Jiuyuan cast his eyes on Jiang Wan, "I'll leave the backyard to you to take care of."

"Mom, come here."

Regardless of whether they would divorce or not, Jiang Wan didn't want to manage the household affairs for the time being.

Mrs. Song is still young, and Jiang Wan doesn't want to surpass her.

Madam Song subconsciously refused, "Wanwan, Yuan'er asked you to take care of it, so just do it."
