Chapter 1177: The First to Arrive



Xia Chujian had always believed that Tan Tai Jing must be the daughter of Quan Jiuyi, but unexpectedly, she was neither the daughter of the Queen nor the daughter of Quan Jiuyi!

So that bastard emperor has a mistress that no one knows about?!

The key point is, how did this bastard emperor manage to sneak this child into the palace without anyone noticing, right in front of two top nobles, and in front of so many royal nobles?!

How did the queen's child get lost?

Where is Quan Jiuyi's child?

These questions flashed through her mind for a moment, but they only passed by in a flash, and she had no intention of delving into them further.

Anyway, these things have nothing to do with her, and she doesn't care how many mistresses that dog emperor has.

At this moment, Speaker Kang of the lower house of the Senate, as if deliberately taking revenge on Xia Chujian for embarrassing him just now, suddenly said: "Although Miss Jing is not the crown princess, she is also the emperor's bloodline, at least she is a citizen."

"What kind of crime is it that a citizen is killed by a civilian like Xia Chujian?"

Xia Chujian didn't tolerate him and said directly: "This Miss Jing ordered people to kill my teammates and their families, and now she wants to kill me and my family."

"I killed her in self-defense."

"Legally, there is no criminal immunity for citizens who kill civilians."

"Civilians have the right to self-defense against citizens."

Xia Chujian looked at Speaker Kang of the lower house of the Senate and said in a cold voice, as cold as ice: "So, Speaker Kang, you want to redress the grievances of common people like me and implicate Miss Jing's paternal and maternal clans as well?"

"After all, the murderer is already dead. We can't let her die a second time."

"Oh, that's not right. Although we can't let her die a second time, we can dismember her body and scatter her ashes to serve as a warning to others and to comfort those civilians who died unjustly."

"Chairman Kang, tell me, is this what you want to do?"

Chairman Kang was frightened by Xia Chujian's words and said subconsciously: "She is already dead! How can we do this?!"

"But you..."

Xia Chujian interrupted him: "What about me? Do I have to surrender whenever she wants to kill me?"

"Or in Chairman Kang's mind, the emperor's illegitimate daughter is superior to commoners like us?"

"Unfortunately, if you really want her to be superior, you need to change the law now and give illegitimate children the same rights as legitimate children."

"Tsk tsk, if you want to do this, you'll have to amend the constitution..."

"May I ask if Chairman Kang also has several illegitimate children waiting to inherit your property?"

Xia Chujian's first few words were quite normal, but the last sentence was suspected of being a personal attack.

Quan Yuxun shook his head in amusement and said, "It's our first meeting, so let's get down to business and don't ramble on."

Then he looked at Chairman Kang and said, "But Chairman Kang, except for the last sentence which is nonsense, what I said does make sense."

"Excuse me, Speaker Kang, do you want to amend the constitution?"

"But even if the constitution can be amended, the law does not apply retroactively, so it cannot be applied in this case."

Chairman Kang was about to lose his temper because of Xia Chujian, but as soon as Quan Yuxun spoke, his resentment miraculously disappeared.

Because Quan Yuxun said that Xia Chujian was his client.

That means that Quan Yuxun is Xia Chujian’s attorney.

Who could possibly win a lawsuit against her when she could have the chief legal advisor of the Imperial Senate acting as her attorney?!

Even the Speaker of the Senate is useless!

They are good at making laws, but not so good at defending them in court...

God knows how many loopholes there are in those laws, and how many backdoors they have left for themselves!

Speaker Kang laughed self-deprecatingly and said, "Mr. Xia, you're being too kind. I don't intend to amend the constitution."

"I didn't know this Miss Jing had killed so many people and even wanted to kill Xia and her entire family."

"From this perspective, Xia was indeed acting in self-defense and is not guilty of murder."

Quan Yuxun nodded with satisfaction: "As long as you acknowledge her innocence."

As he spoke, Quan Yuxun smiled and looked at everyone in the conference room again, "What about you guys?"

At this time, in the conference room, in addition to Speaker Kang of the Lower House of the Senate, there was also Speaker Li of the Upper House, as well as the five chiefs of staff of the military, Chief Inspector Huo Yushen of the Special Security Bureau, Director of the Operations Department Meng Guanghui and High Priest Su Yanxing.

Speaker Li of the Senate also seemed to have a good impression of Xia Chujian. He nodded and said, "I agree. The killing was purely a self-defense counterattack. Murder is not a crime."

High Priest Su Yanxing smiled and said, "I'm not a law professional, but since the Speakers of the Senate and the Chief Legal Advisor all believe that Xia Chujian is not guilty of murder, he is naturally not guilty."

The five chiefs of staff of the military all nodded and said, "Not guilty."

Quan Yuxun looked at Huo Yushen and Meng Guanghui again.

Huo Yushen didn't say anything.

Meng Guanghui immediately said, "The Special Security Bureau does not interfere in internal affairs."

Quan Yuxun said, "If you don't object, that means you agree."

As he spoke, he took out several more certificates of testimony and handed them to the people present, saying, "As usual, sign and put your fingerprints on them."

They had already signed a certificate of testimony regarding the results of Tan Taijing's genetic test.

This one is the certificate of Xia Chujian's innocence and exemption from responsibility.

After all these people signed and pressed their fingerprints, Huo Yushen opened the door of the conference room and let them leave.

The first to leave were the two speakers of the Senate, then the five chiefs of staff of the military, and finally the high priest Su Yanxing.

However, Su Yanxing did not do the same as those people and left immediately after signing.
