Chapter 209
"I'm telling you, you old woman, who else but yourself would believe what you're saying!"
Someone couldn't stand it anymore and quickly spoke up.
"Haha, maybe he thinks he's just as pretty as Miss Li?"
"Li Yaozu's daughter, Li Taohua, can't compare to that young lady."
“What do you know? I’m old now, and I don’t eat as well as she does, so I look a bit less attractive,” Zhang retorted, dissatisfied with the disdain shown towards her.
Li Zhiwei was speechless.
Does she resemble that old woman?
How are they similar?
Do they look alike?
Apart from that, she really couldn't find any other similarity.
"Look at you, you're as black and strong as a pig. How dare you compare yourself to Miss Li, who is graceful and beautiful? You two are not even the same breed!"
Someone quickly stepped forward and said.
Li Zhiwei felt that she really didn't want to hear these words; they were too disgusting.
"My lord!" At this moment, the yamen runner, having received the notification, hurriedly came to Zhao Xincheng and bowed.
Zhao Xincheng actually went to the yamen just now.
However, no one expected that the official would have to deal with a case so soon after arriving in Li'an County.
"Take all those people to the yamen. I will definitely go back and interrogate them properly later." Zhao Xincheng pointed to Li Yaozu and the others standing to the side.
“Lord Zhao, these people keep claiming to be my family, my father’s biological parents. As far as I know, my father was born to my grandparents. I have never heard of them being adopted.”
Li Zhiwei glanced at those people with a hint of disgust as he spoke, and continued, "I hope Lord Zhao can investigate the truth and clear the name of my Li family."
"You worthless good-for-nothing! We are your own grandparents! How dare you have us arrested!" Li Chengshan shouted angrily upon hearing Li Zhiwei's words.
"Lord Zhao, as you have seen, it's hard to say whether their identities are true or false, but everyone has seen their covetousness towards my Li family. If they are truly my father's biological parents, my father will certainly not shirk his filial duty. If not, I hope Lord Zhao will punish them according to the law, never wronging an innocent person, nor letting a guilty person go unpunished!"
Li Zhiwei's voice was neither too loud nor too soft, but everyone could hear it.
Everyone knows that this whole thing is Li Yaozu trying to extort money from someone.
I also think that their handling of the situation was very appropriate.
"Take them away!" Zhao Xincheng didn't give Li Yaozu and the others any chance to cause trouble again and took them away directly.
When everyone saw that the person had been taken away, they all dispersed.
"Sister, Weiwei, take care. I'll head back now," Yao Qisheng said to Yao Shi and Li Zhiwei.
"Your Highness, may I have a word with you in private?"
