Chapter 494: Take Action



Uncle Dou was devastated at this moment.

Someone asked him to stop this young woman on the street and have a chat with her. He thought there were benefits to be gained and he could take advantage of the woman, so he naturally wanted it.

But no one told him that this little girl actually ran her head against the wall and died after her hand was touched!

I hit my head against the wall and died... It's really bad luck when I think about it.

When Uncle Dou shouted, the officers who were about to subdue him stopped and looked at the leading officer.

The leading officer sneered, "What a joke! You said he's the cousin of Princess Yan? I meet several people like you who are making up connections with people like you every day!"

The Wucheng Bingmasi was responsible for patrolling the capital and arresting thieves, and the emperor had the most officials and nobles under his command, so there were also more playboys who tried to curry favor with him.

"I'm talking nonsense?" Uncle Dou shouted in a very righteous manner, "If you don't believe me, you can go and ask around. My sister is currently living in Prince Yan's mansion..."

The leading officer hesitated.

Uncle Dou sneered complacently: "Humph, I am the cousin of the Princess of Yan, which means I am the cousin of the Prince of Yan. If you dare to arrest me, the Prince of Yan will definitely put you in jail and have you beaten!"

The Queen Mother listened silently with a very unpleasant look on her face.

Princess Rongyang lowered her eyes, hiding the smile in her eyes.

Such a person, although lousy, can be very useful at critical moments.

There are many cases of playboys molesting decent girls, but it becomes a big deal when a girl who was molested dies by hitting her head against a wall in public.

Even if the government doesn't pursue the matter, people who watch the fun will spread the news.

After what happened today, no matter how the Prince of Yan and his wife try to save the situation, the reputation of the Princess of Yan is ruined.

She had ruined Princess Yan's reputation among the people and her status in the hearts of the Emperor and the Queen Mother. Her actions this time were not in vain.

Princess Rongyang once thought about dealing with the child in Jiang Si's belly, but later gave up.

The Princess of Yan seldom goes out since she became pregnant, and it is not easy to get into the Prince of Yan's mansion, so it is not easy to get rid of the baby in her belly.

Besides, the baby in Princess Yan's belly is not as valuable as the baby in Princess Qi's belly. Solving the problem will only make Princess Yan sad for a while. And considering Princess Yan's age, she might get pregnant again after raising the baby for a few months.

She was too lazy to use such a trick which was time-consuming and had little effect on the other party.

It is much easier to ruin a person's reputation, and it will stay with that person for many years. In serious cases, it may even be recorded in the history books.

Princess Rongyang watched the bustle with a cold eye and felt refreshed.

A child's voice rang out: "Sister——"

Soon a boy of seven or eight years old squeezed out of the crowd and ran towards the fallen woman.

There was a burst of discussion among the crowd.

"What a sin! This child lost his parents when he was young and lived with his married sister. Now that his sister is dead, how can he live——"

"Where is this young lady's man?"

"Her husband is a traveling merchant, he has not come back yet..."

The boy was lying on the woman's body crying, then suddenly stood up and rushed towards his cousin Dou.

"Give my sister back to me, give my sister back to me!" The boy lowered his head and bit his uncle Dou's wrist.

The child had sharp teeth and used all his strength to bite Uncle Dou's wrist, causing it to bleed.

Uncle Dou felt pain and threw the boy out suddenly.

Although the boy was not short, he was very thin. He was pushed far away and fell to the ground.

Those who were watching the excitement could no longer bear it and started cursing.

"Can the cousin of Princess Yan force someone to death? Is there any law?"

"That's right. If a prince breaks the law, he is punished the same as a commoner. But can a cousin like the princess do whatever she wants?"

"Uncle Yang used to do whatever he wanted, but what happened? He died a miserable death..."

Several major cases that occurred last year are still topics that people talk about with great relish after dinner.

The law does not hold the masses accountable, and the onlookers became more and more angry as they spoke.

Uncle Dou covered his wrist and jumped up to curse, "Who said that? If you have the guts, come out and tell it to the King of Yan!"

The crowd fell silent.

Uncle Dou's reckless attitude made the leading officials dare not act rashly.

He is still so confident at this time. It seems that he is not some random climber. Maybe he is really the cousin of Princess Yan.

The glorious deeds of Prince Yan had long since reached the ears of these lower-level officials.

He dared to roll up his sleeves and beat the prince, and then he was fine. The prince was deposed not long after...

Tsk tsk, if people like them dare to provoke King Yan, they will lose their lives.

The leading officer softened his tone and said, "Follow us first!"

"I won't leave. I'm not going anywhere. If I have to go, I'll go to Prince Yan's Mansion. If you don't have the courage to go, then let me go!" Uncle Dou said loudly.

The leading officer almost lost control and slapped Uncle Dou in the face.

How can there be such a stupid person!

"Brother, come with us first. If you have anything to say, wait until there's no one around..." the leading officer reminded in a low voice.

Uncle Dou was stunned, hesitated for a moment and then agreed.

In the carriage, the Queen Mother sullenly ordered the eunuch, "Call the guards over."

Soon, a young man in casual clothes came to the Queen Mother and said respectfully, "I am a servant of Commander Han. Please tell me what I can do for you."

The Queen Mother was stunned for a moment and murmured, "The Emperor is really..."

Then he straightened his face and said, "That's fine. Go and tell the people from the Five Cities Military Department to bring that person away to me..."

The young man immediately took the order and left.

"Wait a moment."

The leading officer who was about to take Uncle Dou away turned around and looked over.

The young man raised his hand and waved.

Seeing the badge in his hand, the leading officer's expression suddenly changed. He clasped his fists and said, "What do you want, sir?"

The young man raised his chin slightly and said coldly: "I'll take this person away."

The leading officer breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't wait to push Uncle Dou in front of the young man.

It would be great if Master Jinlinwei could take this idiot away, so as to save him from trouble.

If someone dies, if I let him go, the people will criticize me. If I don't let him go, I might offend the King of Yan. In short, I will be unpopular both inside and outside.

The Jinscale Guards were so powerful that they dared to arrest even the royal family members, let alone the royal family members' relatives.

A man following behind the young man immediately stepped forward and grabbed Uncle Dou.

"Who are you? Let me go!" Seeing the young man's cold and unyielding aura, Dou's uncle asked the leading officer for help, "Aren't you officers? This man wanted to kidnap me, why didn't you do anything about it?"

The young man said calmly, "Jin Linwei is handling the case."

Uncle Dou was stunned for a moment: "Jin, Jin Linwei?"

He had been in the capital for quite some time and had long known the power of the Jinlin Guards.

Hearing that it was Jin Linwei who was handling the case, even the onlookers dared not make a sound. The scene suddenly became quiet. Only the boy's crying sound kept echoing in people's ears, which sounded extremely miserable.

The Queen Mother once again instructed the eunuchs: "Give some money to bury the woman and send the child back home. Turn the carriage in another direction."
