Wang Jue is in trouble.
Tao Yuwei’s prediction was correct.
As soon as the doctors who were invited into the Left Prime Minister's Mansion left, Wang Jue was blocked at the door by Xiao Lichen's men before he could even leave the house.
"Wang Jue, you and Niu Sangui from your casino in the capital have wantonly murdered many innocent women. You recruited and deceived them into coming to farms in the suburbs under the guise of sericulture, then tortured them to death and dumped them in mass graves. Come, arrest Wang Jue and Niu Sangui behind him and take them to the prison for trial!"
At Xiao Lichen's command, a group of Xiao Yuwei dressed in black suddenly appeared and captured Wang Jue and the tall, wretched-looking man behind him.
When Wang Jue was taken away by Xiao Yuwei, he shouted in fear to his brother Wang Cheng, "Second brother, save me!"
Hearing Xiao Lichen's accusations against his elder brother, Wang Cheng stood there in disbelief.
How is that possible?
My eldest brother is studying at the Imperial College. He is an excellent student and respects his teachers. If you say he has bad habits, I believe he will never harm innocent people.
"Prince Xiao, did you make a mistake?"
Wang Cheng still didn't believe that Wang Jue would be involved in a matter of life and death.
"More than fifty women were found tortured to death in the suburbs of Beijing. The Dali Temple has been secretly investigating this matter for over six months. After reporting it to the court, His Majesty verbally ordered the Xiaoyu Guard to conduct a thorough investigation, with the assistance of the Dali Temple. After much effort, they obtained evidence and finally led the investigation to Wang Jue. Second Young Master Wang, please do not interfere with official business."
Faced with the doubts, Xiao Lichen did not say anything, but Zhou Qiheng, the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple, stood up and spoke.
Upon hearing that his brother was jointly investigated by the Dali Temple and Xiao Yuwei, Wang Cheng stepped aside with a dejected look on his face.
Everyone knows that Dali Temple Shaoqing Zhou Qiheng is a well-known ruthless person. Even if he personally confirmed the eldest brother's crime, there is no way to escape it.
Just now, he thought that Xiao Yuwei was deliberately targeting and suppressing his father to help His Majesty eliminate dissidents.
He watched with his own eyes as his elder brother Wang Jue was taken away.
On weekdays, he and his elder brother couldn't play together. Although they were a family, they were not in the same circle.
I didn't expect that the big brother who seemed steady and reliable would do such a heartless thing.
When they arrived at the front yard, Mou Qingyue, the wife of the Left Prime Minister, who had heard the news, appeared. Wang Jue desperately begged for help, "Mother, please ask Daddy to save me. I'm in the prison and I can't get out."
Mou Qingyue wanted to stop him, but when Xiao Lichen appeared, she fainted before she could say a word.
Xiao Yuwei quickly left the Left Prime Minister's Mansion.
The other onlookers also left.
Tao Yuwei also followed everyone's footsteps and came to the outside of the Left Prime Minister's Mansion.
[Damn, I never thought Wang Jue had secretly murdered so many innocent women in the capital, and the villain even found evidence.]
Tao Yuwei felt deeply surprised among the unexpected.
It seems that there is a hidden plot that she doesn't know about.
The big villain could even find out about such things. She was so excited that she wanted to go back home and drink to celebrate.
Wang Jue has been arrested and should be brought to justice.
In this way, without Wang Jue's participation, the cousin would not be like in the original plot. First, the third princess was plotted and her innocence was taken away. Wang Jue knew that the third princess liked the cousin. After Wu Hanmo returned to Beijing, he used the woman next to the cousin to sow discord and make the third princess misunderstand that the cousin liked someone else.
In a fit of anger, she became disheartened and went with the flow and married into the Wang family.
On the day Wang Jue married the third princess, Wu Hanmo endured the heartache and went to congratulate and sincerely wish the third princess well, but was plotted against by Wang Jue again.
Together with Niu Sangui, who was his good friend, he deliberately tortured Liu Yuncui, the daughter of the Minister of War, to death, and then threw her next to his drunken cousin.
My cousin became enemies with the Weiyuan General's Mansion and the Liu family, the Minister of War.
Concubine Liu and her son used the power of Prince Yong and colluded with others to deal with the General Weiyuan's Mansion.
As a result, my cousin was imprisoned and dismissed from his position as General of Cavalry.
Only with his maternal grandfather's life as a guarantee did he return to the border and participate in the war against the northern barbarians as a soldier. He was finally killed on the battlefield.
And now.
The villain's move changed the fate of many people.
How could Tao Yuwei not be happy.
She decided that from now on, she would support the villain and kill those who targeted her family.
"Princess Anle, thank you for your help. If Wang Jue had succeeded, I really don't dare to imagine what would have become of me."
Guo Buyan left the Left Prime Minister's Mansion first, but did not leave. He kept waiting for her.
Seeing her come out, he hurried forward and bowed very solemnly to express his gratitude.
Looking at the young and youthful gentleman in front of her, Tao Yuwei was very pleased.
Yes, thanks to her efforts, this man's life trajectory was changed. He is still the same energetic man with a heart full of justice.
He would not become a self-loathing alcoholic, falling into a river and drowning in the dark and lonely night.
"I have already received the banknote of thanks you gave me. You are not allowed to thank me a second time."
Tao Yuwei waved her hand and turned to walk towards her own carriage.
Just as he was about to get on the car, he was stopped by a white figure.
"Princess Anle, my master wants to discuss something with you."
Guard Qingzhu appeared beside her.
Tao Yuwei looked the man up and down. "This princess hasn't seen you around Xiao Lichen for a long time. I guess you're out investigating a case, right?"
Qingzhu is more talkative than Heiyan towards Xiao Lichen's two guards.
Qingzhu saluted and said, "I have indeed been away for quite some time, and I just returned to my master today."
Tao Yuwei had already guessed what he was sent out to do.
"Have you investigated the matter in Lingzhou?"
Tao Yuwei said something to her coachman and asked him to go first, and she walked towards another luxurious carriage next to her.
Qingzhu followed behind her and did not deny it when she asked this question.
The trip to Lingzhou is related to Princess Anle.
She was the first one to discover the child trafficking case in Beijing.
"Princess Anle, if you have any specific questions about Lingzhou, you can ask my master."
As a guard, there are some things he cannot say without permission.
Tao Yuwei nodded and got in the car.
As soon as she entered the carriage, she saw Xiao Lichen sitting inside waiting for her.
And the guard Qingzhu also got into the carriage.
"Have something to drink first."
Xiao Lichen picked up the teapot on the table and poured her a glass of water.
At his signal, Qingzhu reported back, "Master, I only found a letter in the study of the Left Prime Minister's residence."
Qingzhu took out a letter from his arms and presented it to Xiao Lichen.
Xiao Lichen opened it, read the contents, and gave the letter to Qingzhu.
"Please keep this letter first."
Seeing that the two of them were discussing business as if no one was around, Tao Yuwei quietly stayed aside and drank tea.
[The villain's luck is just terrible. He can't compare to the hero, Xiao Chengyan. The hero went to the study of the Left Prime Minister's residence and learned about the treasure, but you only found a letter.]
