"The Grand Commandant has been away from the capital for too long and doesn't know what exactly happened there. I understand, but I will explain it to you in detail. Please come this way."
Jing Yuchen looked very gentle as he walked deeper into the compound. The commander glanced at Shao Lecheng who was following closely behind him and followed him.
The three of them sat down in the living room. General Miao's eyes were deep, and he was very calm facing Jing Yuchen, the man who killed his son.
"What is the purpose of the Regent bringing his troops here this time? To search the Grand Marshal's Mansion for collusion with Tufan and the intention of rebellion?"
His tone was very calm, but his eyes were cold. When he looked at Jing Yuchen, it was as if he was looking at a dead person.
"Since I am the regent, and someone has pointed fingers at the Grand Marshal's Mansion, I must lead my troops and conduct a thorough investigation!"
The general's brows were furrowed the whole time. Someone searched the living room and started searching in front of him. The general clenched his fists, obviously trying to endure it.
"What if nothing is found?" The general's brows were still furrowed, and the forbearance in his expression gradually turned into a hint of coldness.
"Then I can only say congratulations to you, General!" Jing Yuchen smiled faintly, and naturally did not want to take any responsibility for getting nothing!
General Miao seemed to have heard a joke. He suddenly raised his head and burst into laughter. The laughter sounded very arrogant. To the ears of others, they just felt that they were being despised by him.
"Lord Regent, even the former Grand Marshal's Mansion cannot be searched at will. Now you say that the Grand Marshal's Mansion has been accused. Who is that accusation?"
"Bring the man here. This general will personally conduct a thorough interrogation to see who gave him the audacity to accuse me of this!"
It can be heard that General Miao is very confident, and Shao Lecheng also echoed: "Yes, the Regent will bring the people over!"
Jing Yuchen looked at him coldly, a hint of disdain on his lips: "You were present during the three courts' joint trial, but now you agree with the Grand Marshal's request for a retrial? What? Are you doubting the three courts' ability to conduct the trial?"
Although Shao Lecheng was being ridiculed, he did not soften his attitude in the slightest. Instead, he became even more resolute. "Lord Regent, if those people had not testified for you after you threatened them, why would you be afraid of a retrial?"
"The Grand Marshal is far away from the capital, and there are many things he doesn't know. Even if the Grand Marshal's Mansion really did find something, he's not in the capital, which means he had no involvement. He would only feel wronged."
"Now that he's back, what's wrong with wanting to find out where his crime came from? If you try to stop him, it only means you're the one with something to hide!"
What Shao Lecheng said sounded somewhat reasonable.
General Miao stroked his beard and was quite satisfied with Shao Lecheng's remarks.
Although Shao Lecheng was defeated by the Regent's Palace, his spirit and bravery are now truly admirable.
"This Grand Marshal feels that what the Prince says is perfectly reasonable. If you, Prince Regent, have nothing to hide, why should you be afraid of asking this Grand Marshal to re-examine those who have accused me? This Grand Marshal feels wronged, but cannot he prove his innocence? Even if he is ultimately convicted, no one will be convinced!"
At this time, Ni Yueshan, who was standing by, smiled and said, "The Taiwei Mansion is now a suspect. Suspects are naturally guilty and should be imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison. Moreover, it was the Empress Dowager who personally requested the three courts to conduct a joint trial. Now that the three courts have made such a decision, the Taiwei wants to conduct a thorough investigation again. This shows that he is suspecting the Empress Dowager and the people of the three courts!"
Afterwards, Ni Yueshan stood up with a smile and said, "My husband, the Taiwei Mansion has been accused by many people, and there are witnesses. We should arrest the person directly. You are being polite to him here, but he is getting ahead of you. Why should you be polite?"
Jing Yuchen listened to Ni Yueshan's words, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, his eyes full of smiles: "Madam is absolutely right, it's because I'm too easy to talk to, so people are taking advantage of me. Come here——"
His voice stretched out, and the people who were searching outside immediately gathered and surrounded the living room.
"What are your orders, my Lord?"
Jing Yuchen raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "Capture the general!"
General Miao had been enduring it all the time, but when he heard this, he got so angry that he slammed the table next to him with his palm. The table, which had been standing firmly, immediately broke into pieces and scattered on the ground.
The atmosphere on the scene instantly froze and became extremely quiet.
The people in the Taiwei Mansion also hurried over here.
The two forces confronted each other, and the atmosphere became increasingly tense.
Jing Yuchen and Ni Yueshan were not afraid. Jing Yuchen laughed out loud: "Why, the general is arresting him?"
General Miao looked at Jing Yuchen with sharp eyes, "Prince Regent, you don't take me seriously! I will go to see the Queen Mother now!"
Jing Yuchen didn't stop him, but sneered: "If you step out of this door, you will be arrested!"
"Hmph!" General Miao walked out without any fear.
The people brought by the Regent's Palace had originally surrounded the living room. At this time, the general walked out slowly, and each of them slowly drew the sword at their waist, waiting for Jing Yuchen's order, and then they would capture the general.
Some people thought Jing Yuchen would hesitate for a moment, but he didn't hesitate at all and shouted in a stern voice: "Capture him!"
The people from the Regent's Palace rushed forward and wanted to arrest the person, but General Miao also took action without any hesitation.
Naturally, people from the Taiwei Mansion also joined in the fight.
Jing Yuchen walked up to Ni Yueshan and protected her behind him. "If there is any danger, run first."
Ni Yueshan, however, didn't care much. "Even though this is the Grand Marshal's Mansion, you shouldn't be so bold as to do anything to me, right?"
Jing Yuchen frowned and suggested, "If I wasn't sure he wouldn't surrender, why would I just take him by force?"
