Yao Guangyue didn't expect Qin Xuezhen to come to Wancheng so quickly and had already met her third brother. She was a little panicked for a moment.
[System, what do you mean by this? What do you mean by her contacting Master Yaoguang? Could it be that up to now, my three brothers are still her targets?]
[Remind the host: as long as the heroine fails, all supporting characters will become her targets. However, judging by the current situation, the three princes should no longer have any interest in him. They are just worried about whether Qin Xuezhen will do something else to them.]
Yao Guangyue thought about it and realized that Qin Xuezhen was currently notorious and was almost a wanted criminal in Yaoguang Country.
If there had been no actual evidence to prove that she had committed a crime, a warrant might have been issued for her arrest.
[I don't think she would have any thoughts about my brothers, but I don't know what Tangxicheng is up to. I always feel that Qin Xue is really stupid, while Tangxicheng is more terrifying.]
"So, host, what conclusion have you come to after analyzing this for so long?"
[The conclusion I've come to is that Tangxi City is here! When Third Brother comes back, I'll have to find out where he went today.]
As they were talking, Master Yaoguang came back and said that he was quite unlucky.
"Oh, what bad luck! Not only did I get bumped into when I went out, but my wallet was even stolen!"
The third prince patted his clothes as he spoke. When he looked up, he saw his second brother, the imperial concubine and General Mu were all staring at him.
The third prince was stunned for a moment and didn't understand what was happening, so he had to ask tentatively.
"What's going on? Why are you all staring at me?"
The Third Prince was so frightened that he didn't even dare to say the word "King". It was really because the three men had scorching eyes and looked a bit scary.
It was the second prince who asked first.
"Where did you go today? What happened? You just said you were unlucky. Did something happen to you?"
It was just a casual complaint, but were the three of them so concerned? The Third Prince didn't think much about it, so he spoke honestly.
It turned out that he had met Qin Xuezhen on the road just now, but the other party was wearing a coarse linen shirt and covering her face with a large piece of cloth.
The third prince did not recognize her and thought she was a disaster victim nearby. After kindly helping him up, she actually stole his money.
"Stop talking! I just met a disaster victim on the road. I kindly helped her up, but she stole my purse."
"It's not that I'm short of the two pieces of silver. If I were truly in trouble, I could have come to the government for help. It's really infuriating to be stealing for no reason!"
Now that the imperial concubine and General Mu were also here, the second prince was not in a position to tell his third brother who he had met just now. However, he remembered that Yao Guangyue had just said that she wanted to find out where the third prince had gone, so he asked.
"Why did you go out today? Shouldn't you stay in the government office and wait for the merchants to come?"
The Third Prince had indeed forgotten to tell the Second Prince about this matter, so this was a good opportunity to inform him.
"Come to think of it, I forgot to tell my second brother that the Kang family has two sons. The younger son, Kang Wenlu, came in and committed a crime. I was planning to use this to blackmail the Kang family, but when I went there, they said that Master Kang Jia was ill. I went there for nothing, so I came back."
When the second prince heard that Kang Wenlu had committed a crime, he thought it was an opportunity and asked about it immediately.
"What did he do wrong? Where is he now?"
"This guy invaded other people's land and robbed women. I happened to encounter him when I was out, so I arrested him."
The second prince was just thinking that this was a good thing, but then he heard Yao Guangyue chattering.
[Why is this plot moving forward again? My Third Brother, you can't catch that guy. This is a trap.]
[The family whose land was seized was rich but unkind, a small landlord who oppressed their tenants. The woman abducted from Kang Wen Road was abducted by that small landlord. He went to rescue her. They set up this plot to frame you!]
Yaoguangyue clapped her two fingers on her legs anxiously, and jumped up and down while standing on her grandfather's legs. I didn't know who would think that this child was extremely happy!
Yao Guangyue was so anxious that she wanted to pounce on him. Fortunately, the imperial concubine came over and held him in her arms.
"It's naturally good that your Third Prince has this intention. It's also the duty of a prince to speak up for the people. However, we must investigate this matter thoroughly to avoid wrongfully accusing others. After all, as princes, you two represent the face of the royal family, so you must give more consideration to everything."
General Mu also nodded repeatedly, agreeing with his daughter's words.
"That's true, but we still need to investigate further. Since Kang Wenlu has the audacity to seize other people's fertile land, and is breaking the law with both of you princes here, he is so arrogant. Perhaps there are other forces behind him. It's better to suppress him first and follow the clues to find out the real reason."
Yao Guangyue breathed a sigh of relief. Her mother and grandfather were so supportive.
[Okay, okay, as long as we suppress this matter first and investigate thoroughly, we'll definitely find out it's a trap. We can't just get angry and punish Kang Wenlu now. Go investigate, go investigate, and you'll find out once you investigate!]
Neither the Imperial Concubine nor General Mu mentioned the trap, but they hinted that the Third Prince should get to the bottom of the matter.
This gave the third prince a way out, so he agreed immediately.
"You're right. Everything still requires evidence. I'll go check it out now."
General Mu was still a little worried. The third prince was a good fighter and General Mu liked him very much. He couldn't be plotted against behind the scenes.
"Please wait a moment, Third Prince. I will go with you to check it out. I want to see if these merchants are planning to cause trouble!"
As General Mu was speaking, he slammed the cane in his hand to the ground, giving the Third Prince a fright.
When he first joined the army, in order to be safe on the battlefield, the emperor specially assigned him to General Mu for training for three months.
He was beaten with the cane many times at that time, and later he really wanted to hug his father and cry.
Only after going to the battlefield did he discover that the old general was strict with him and taught him everything he knew, which helped him turn danger into safety several times on the battlefield.
Later, the third prince also understood the old general's good intentions, but that did not mean he was not afraid of the cane.
A few days ago, I heard from people around the imperial concubine that the old general mistakenly thought that his eldest brother had harmed Mu Chan and almost broke his leg.
The third prince was still scared at that time!
After General Mu packed up, he was about to go out with his cane, but he saw the third prince standing there in a daze, so he frowned slightly.
"Your Highness, why don't you leave quickly? What are you doing standing there?"
"Ah, go, go, go!"
