Chapter 183: Cry out for justice against the culprit!
Lord Qian looked up at the emperor, who was also very eager to know how the prince was attacked, so he could only describe the scene at that time.
"Your Majesty, when I arrived, most of the people in the General's Mansion had already been defeated by the Crown Prince and his men."
"There is a woman, a young lady, three elderly people, and two men protecting His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
"That shouldn't be the case. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's skills shouldn't be that poor. Are you sure you saw it right?"
Gu Ting listened to Mr. Qian's description and raised questions.
"Master Gu, I saw it with my own eyes. This is what happened at the time."
"Zhao Yan still hasn't recognized His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. I think the original target wasn't the Crown Prince, but someone else, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was dragged into it."
Lord Qian told the emperor the results of his analysis. It was not that he was partial to the Zhao family, but it was indeed the case based on his experience.
To be able to sit on the position of Jingzhao Prefecture Governor, Lord Qian must have real ability.
"According to what you said, our Crown Prince is truly kind-hearted and has the demeanor of a future heir apparent."
The emperor always felt that Gu Ting was plotting against him when he heard what he said, but he had no evidence.
"Where was the prince attacked?"
The emperor was quite curious about what the prince had done when he sneaked out of the palace so early in the morning and was surrounded and beaten.
"Beauty Shop!"
As soon as Lord Qian finished speaking, the Emperor and Gu Ting were furious.
"Where do you mean?"
"Your Majesty, it's at the Beauty Shop on East Street."
"Are the people protecting the prince from the Beauty Shop?"
When the melon fell on his head, Gu Ting no longer had the calmness he had just now.
"The elders call His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Ah Yan, and I see that His Royal Highness is extremely affectionate towards them."
"When His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said he felt dizzy, everyone was extremely nervous. He even called that young lady Sister Zhizhi."
Lord Qian recalled the situation at that time and answered truthfully.
"Besides the prince, are there any others injured?"
Gu Ting was furious. Meiyanfang was the Qin family's shop. Someone in the capital dared to smash his niece's shop. It was as if he didn't exist.
"No one at the beauty salon was injured, but the milk tea shop next door was affected quite a bit, so I think they suffered a lot of losses."
Lord Qian answered cautiously. He felt that Gu Ting's anger had reached its peak and was very afraid that Gu Ting would go to Jingzhao Prefecture and beat Zhao Yan to death.
"Where is the troublemaker?" The emperor was now more worried about the troublemaker's safety.
"Your Majesty, before I entered the palace, I locked up all the troublemakers in Jingzhao Prefecture."
"Are the Qin family members also imprisoned?" Gu Ting was really afraid that Lord Qian would also imprison Qin Zhizhi and her group.
"Master Gu, you're overthinking it. With His Royal Highness the Crown Prince here, how could I dare to imprison His Royal Highness's men?"
At that time, Lord Qian just wanted to run away quickly and would never dare to arrest anyone, unless he didn't want to do it again.
"It's good that it's not closed. It's good that it's not closed. Otherwise, I won't be able to live well, and neither will you."
Gu Ting was so angry that he was a little incoherent. He needed to calm down.
The emperor saw him walking around to disperse the fire, and in his heart he was already praying for the Zhao family.
Just at this moment, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's attendant asked to see the Emperor and described the scene in vivid detail.
He even repeated Zhao Yan's arrogant words word for word.
Gu Ting's face turned even darker. He couldn't stay in the palace any longer, so he bowed to the emperor and took his leave.
"Your Majesty, I will take my leave now. My niece's wife was beaten for no reason by someone who blocked my door. I want to go and ask the General's Mansion what they think of my Gu family."
The Emperor and Lord Qian both felt that this was a serious matter, but Gu Ting had already left.
Lord Qian looked at the emperor with some embarrassment and asked, "Your Majesty, what should I do? You know Lord Gu's temper."
"You go back first. I'm going to the Queen's Palace. The eldest princess is there."
The emperor sent Mr. Qian back first, and he had to go to the queen to ask the eldest princess to return home early to take good care of Gu Ting.
As a result, General Zhao entered the palace before Lord Qian left.
"Your Majesty, please help me. My son has been imprisoned in Jingzhao Prefecture."
As soon as General Zhao came in, he knelt on the ground and begged the emperor to make the decision. Zhao Yan didn't know his place, but he understood.
The beauty shop was under the protection of Gu Ting, and Gu Ting had made the announcement early on.
Gu Ting will definitely not let it go since his own son went to the beauty salon to cause trouble today.
The emperor gets angry when he sees General Zhao. Before he even invites him into the palace, he comes to protest his innocence first.
"You are complaining to me about your injustice, but do you understand what happened?"
General Zhao felt a little guilty. He only knew that his son had taken people to the Beauty Shop to cause trouble because the owner of the Beauty Shop had a feud with his son a few days ago.
"Your Majesty, my son had some disagreements with the owner of the Beauty Shop. In a fit of rage, he went to the shop today to cause trouble. I am willing to compensate the shop for all its losses."
"Compensate for all losses. Did you make sure before entering the palace that Zhao Yan attacked the Crown Prince today?"
The emperor questioned General Zhao angrily.
"You haven't even understood the whole thing yet, and you're just here to complain to me. What's the matter? Do you think I've wronged your son?"
General Zhao was completely dumbfounded. No one told him that the man in his family had attacked the prince.
Otherwise, even if he had ten times the courage, he would not dare to go to the palace to appeal for justice.
"Your Majesty, there must be a misunderstanding. Even if I had a hundred guts, I wouldn't dare attack His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
General Zhao naturally did not dare to agree. Attacking the prince would be a serious crime, and all the civil and military officials in the court would condemn him tomorrow.
"Whether it's an injustice or not, you can talk to Lord Qian slowly."
The emperor no longer listened to Lord Zhao's cry for justice, and threw him to Lord Qian and left.
Lord Qian was in a dilemma.
"Cousin, let's leave the palace quickly. We'll talk about the rest on the way. The person Ah Yan beat up was indeed the crown prince. Everyone at the beauty salon and the milk tea shop today can testify to this."
Lord Qian patted General Zhao on the shoulder and advised him to be mentally prepared.
After hearing what his cousin said, General Zhao finally believed that his son had attacked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
"Cousin, what should I do now?"
General Zhao knew that his cousin was a smart man, so he hurried over to ask for his advice.
"Let's go. The carriage said that no result now is the best result."
Although General Zhao didn't quite understand, he believed that his cousin would not harm him, so he quickly followed.
After the emperor told the eldest princess about this, the eldest princess hurried back to the Gu Mansion.
In addition to worrying that Gu Ting's temper would make things worse, she was even more worried about Qin Zhizhi, whom she had long regarded as her own child.
After hearing the news, Mr. Wang took Wang Xinru to the beauty salon first. Seeing that the shop was closed, the two of them hurried to the Qin family.
Wang Xinru's eyes were red all the way when she thought that Qin Qinglin had gotten into all these troubles because of her.
What she is most worried about now is whether Qin Qinglin is injured.
