Seeing this, Bao Yan cautiously protected Jiang Youhou and shouted, "What a joke! Our Third Young Master still cares about your Jiang family's trifles!"
Fan Ren narrowed his poisonous eyes and glared at Bao Yan, the uninvited guest. Although he didn't know what the strong man meant by the "Third Young Master", he was not afraid.
He had already made an agreement with Qian Xiaoliu. As long as he helped him seize the family property, he would give him 20% after the success...
Fan Ren then looked at Jiang Youhou angrily.
"Even now, you still refuse to plead guilty! How can you repay your uncle for raising you?"
At this moment, the blood of a powerful minister and a legitimate princess was surging in Jiang Youhou's body. She remained calm in the face of slander and was not at all panicked. She looked at Fan Ren as if he was a fool.
Such a crude method...
Jiang Youhou's clear, childish voice was particularly clear amid the wailing of ghosts and wolves. He asked, "I plead guilty? What crime do I plead guilty to?"
"You should plead guilty!"
"What crime should I confess?" Fan Ren was panicked for a moment.
Jiang Youhou sneered, "You said I poisoned my father first and then set the fire?"
Fan Ren said confidently, "That's right! You are so cruel at such a young age!"
After saying that, Fan Ren met Jiang Youhou's dark eyes, which were particularly terrifying in the dark night. They didn't look like the eyes of a child at all.
"Right? Oh... So father was poisoned..."
This one sentence was like a thunderbolt, striking everyone present.
Everyone suddenly realized, yes, weren’t Jiang Bisheng and Mrs. Jiang burned to death?
How did Fan Ren know that they were poisoned?
Could it be that... the thief cried thief and let something slip...
Fan Ren's eyes froze, his face turned pale, and he was completely panicked.
"No... I didn't say that..."
He hastily denied it. At this moment, a stranger came in from the door. He had a pointed face, dark circles under his eyes, and was well dressed. He looked like a bohemian young man from some unruly family. This man was none other than Qian Xiaoliu, the youngest son of the steward Qian from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.
Qian Xiaoliu came over and asked pretentiously, "Brother Fan, what happened?"
Fan Ren repeated what he had just said to Qian Xiaoliu word for word. Qian Xiaoliu looked at Jiang Youhou and shook his head, saying, "I didn't expect such a child to have such a cruel heart!"
Bao Yan was Shangguan Shu's top guard, so how could he have known someone as insignificant as Qian Xiaoliu? Seeing him insulting his third son, Bao Yan glared at him, "Who are you talking about? If you keep talking nonsense, I'll spank you!"
"You reckless man! Do you know who I am?!"
Qian Xiaoliu stretched his neck and glared, his face smug after he finished speaking. Unexpectedly, Bao Yan was so disrespectful that he sneered, "I don't care which mountain you came from!"
Qian Xiaoliu was so angry that his breath was stuck in his throat.
Seeing this, Fan Ren came out and said sternly, "This is the youngest son of the chief steward of the Zhenguo Mansion, Master Qian Liu! Why don't you little people come and pay your respects!"
"Where? Who?" Bao Yan couldn't believe his ears for a moment. Even Jiang Youhou was stunned. Is it such a coincidence?
Fan Ren thought Bao Yan was scared, so he smiled proudly and raised his voice even louder, wishing everyone could know.
"The Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion is incredibly powerful! The old Duke of Zhenguo and the current emperor are deeply in love, and the Duke's son is also the emperor's consort, marrying the current emperor's only legitimate daughter! Master Qian Liu's father was the long-time steward of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion. Let me ask you, are you afraid?"
Bao Yan and Jiang Youhou didn't react much, but the others exclaimed.
"Duke Zhenguo Mansion?"
"Oh my god! It turns out this young master is from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion..."
You have to know that having even the slightest connection with the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion is very impressive. For example, a steward like Qian, who has served for many years, even the Jingzhao Yin has to give him some face.
Qian Xiaoliu's status was already out of reach for their merchant family.
Jiang Youhou frowned, "Are you from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion?"
Qian Xiaoliu raised his chin and said righteously, "My identity is not important. What's important is that we catch the culprit who set the fire and stole the property in this tragic Jiang family case. If you plead guilty, I will let the government keep your body intact because of your young age!"
Jiang Youhou said calmly, "It wasn't me who did it, so I'm not afraid no matter where I go!"
He looked at Fan Ren again and said through gritted teeth, "The real culprit who killed my father, don't even think about escaping!"
Fan Ren responded with a fearless laugh.
Bao Yan was speechless.
What are they doing?
Do they know who is standing before them?
This is the third son of the Duke of Zhenguo’s Mansion!
Does Lao Qian’s youngest son know that his father is so outrageous?
Considering that Lao Qian is a good person, should he remind his youngest son?
After much deliberation, Bao Yan decided to give Qian Xiaoliu a chance.
So he said, "Do you know who my third son is?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Youhou looked up at Bao Yan, then lowered his head and blinked, feeling a sour feeling in his heart.
This feeling was strange, as if he suddenly had someone to lean on, someone to rely on. So no matter how great the injustice and sorrow he faced, there was a voice in his heart telling him not to be afraid, that his mother and father would come to save him...
He is no longer the bastard without a father or a mother as Fan Ren said. Not only does he have a father and a mother, but his parents are also very powerful!
Jiang Youhou bit his lip, his eyes becoming more determined.
He couldn't show his weakness and embarrass his mother and father!
Father, don't worry, I will definitely bring your murderer to justice!
Fan Ren sneered, "You little bastard, you dare to act so pretentiously here!"
He said to Qian Xiaoliu, "Sixth Master, this little bastard was picked up by my uncle in the capital three years ago. He has no father or mother!"
