Chapter 97 A Group of Scourges



“What do you know? That’s the Prince Ping’s residence, my territory. I can’t let her gain the upper hand on my own land. What would I become then?” Fu Hanlai said proudly.

—No matter how he tried to escape the marriage back then, it doesn't matter. But now, at least Jiang Xuelin has entered his family and become one of his family members!

It doesn't stop him from boasting outside.

He couldn't very well tell people that he was still being bullied by Jiang Xuelin in the Prince Ping's mansion, could he? Didn't he have any pride?

Several spoiled young masters nodded repeatedly, their eyes filled with admiration. Just then, Yu Bo suddenly looked behind Fu Hanlai and greeted him, "Princess Consort, have you finished speaking? How is the situation outside?"

Fu Hanlai, who was rambling on about how powerful he was and how he suppressed Jiang Xuelin in the mansion, paused, and the hairs on his body stood on end.

"..."

A fair hand rested on Fu Hanlai's shoulder. Fu Hanlai could hear the other person's voice, which was clearly laughing. The voice was crisp and melodious, but to Fu Hanlai, it sounded like a monster that was about to kill him. "What are you talking about? Why don't you tell me too?"

The spoiled brats listening to Fu Han's boastful words: "..."

Silent as a cicada in winter.

Swallowing hard, feeling that the iron fist of justice was about to arrive, these spoiled brats who had been keeping their grandmothers and mothers happy at home reacted quickly, their faces still bearing ingratiating smiles. "Princess Consort, the Prince was talking about how respectful and filial you were when you were in the Prince's mansion, treating your husband as your heaven. But we all know that someone as wise and capable as the Princess Consort would definitely not be like what he said."

As soon as he finished speaking, others immediately chimed in.

Fu Hanlai: "..."

Hey hey hey!

It's true that Jiang Xuelin is terrifying, but I, the heir apparent of a prince, am not someone to be trifled with either. What's going on with you all?

Are you just going to sacrifice me, the crown prince, like this?

Jiang Xuelin smiled, not believing them at all, and patted Fu Hanlai on the shoulder, "Oh, really?"

"Jiang Xuelin, you don't believe these treacherous fellows, do you?" Fu Hanlai thought to himself, realizing something was wrong. He immediately began to defend himself, "Don't you even know me? Do you think I'm that kind of person? These guys just can't stand to see me doing well, that's why they're framing me. If you fall for their tricks, I'll definitely look down on you!"

"They're using you against me!"

The spoiled brats: "..."

That's incredibly shameless!

"...Heh!" Jiang Xuelin looked down at the group of men and sneered.

Everyone else clearly heard the mockery in the voice, but they were genuinely frustrated and dared not refute it. They certainly didn't want to be sacrificed at this moment. Who knew how much Jiang Xuelin had heard? It was said that martial artists had sharp ears and eyes...

Asking this means you're guilty; didn't you see even the young master didn't dare utter a sound?

Seeing these people acting like little quails, Jiang Xuelin felt extremely disgusted. Fortunately, she had just heard some good news, so she was in a good mood and didn't bother arguing with them.

After all, she knew exactly what these guys were like.

"Does the Crown Princess have something to say to the Crown Prince? Then we won't disturb you any longer." After saying this, the group of playboys tried to slip away.

"etc."

Jiang Xuelin pinched Fu Hanlai's shoulder, making him flinch in pain, but he had to endure it for the sake of his pride, which was something she did on purpose.

"I heard that someone impeached the Vice Minister of Rites today."

At this time, countless people in the capital were secretly discussing this matter. Moreover, the information they initially spread came from ordinary people, and it was widely circulated by word of mouth. Therefore, when the authorities realized this and tried to suppress the rumors, they simply couldn't.

This is something Jiang Xuelin learned from those people before, and now she's just applying it in practice.

Ironically, this information is very easy to investigate. A quick search will reveal who is behind it all, so it won't really implicate innocent civilians, although they might get a beating.

Upon hearing Jiang Xuelin's words, the others immediately felt a chill run down their spines, and their eyes instantly lit up.

On one hand, my eyes lit up, and on the other hand, I felt my buttocks starting to hurt prematurely.

You see, the most important thing in that tabloid was naturally the affairs of Minister Huang's family, but it wasn't just those. There were also some minor incidents from other prominent families, just not as sensational as those involving Minister Huang's family.

As for where those little things came from...

That depends on these filial sons and grandsons.

Therefore, all of these people knew that once the matter was exposed, they would inevitably be punished by their elders. Even with Jiang Xuelin and Fu Hanlai taking the lead, they would still have to bear some responsibility.

They knew this in their hearts, and they shouldn't have interfered, but... this matter is so exciting and thrilling!

Just thinking about how they exposed those heartless, shameless bastards fills me with a surge of pride—after all, they really did rid the people of a scourge, preventing more people from being deceived, right?

As for watching the spectacle, that was just a side effect.

Therefore, even if he got a beating, it was worth it.

Moreover, the Mid-Autumn Festival is just two days away. Surely the elders in the family wouldn't want to hurt them at such a time and let them go through the Mid-Autumn Festival with injuries?

Jiang Xuelin started the conversation, and the others immediately started chatting excitedly, some even eager to leave.

Oh dear, it's such a lively scene, but they can only hide here and dare not go home, so naturally they can't see it. That's such a pity!

They did so much just to share joy with the people, and now the people are happy, but they aren't!

"...I think we've really lost a lot because we can't see this for ourselves."

Suddenly someone said regretfully.

The others who were still talking immediately fell silent and looked at him, some of them feeling a little tempted.

"otherwise……"

"……Walk?"

"Anyway, the Mid-Autumn Festival is only two days away. Even if we go back now, it won't be a big deal, right? It's just a little earlier."

"...It definitely won't affect anything."

Finally, their gazes shifted to Fu Hanlai and Jiang Xuelin, who were leading the group, and the meaning in their eyes was quite clear.

Yu Bo leaned back in his chair, sighed, and said nothing more.

He's the one who was truly dragged onto this pirate ship!

If he had known, he wouldn't have spoken so carelessly in front of Dou Niangzi that day.

Jiang Xuelin was able to hold back; she wasn't very interested in the spectacle. But Fu Hanlai was different.

Wherever there's excitement, there he is. He's been cooped up here for days, and now that he sees how lively it is outside, he really can't resist anymore.

"Go home, go home!" With that thought, Fu Hanlai steeled his resolve and strode out.

They headed straight for the largest restaurant in the entire capital, and the others immediately followed.

Jiang Xuelin, standing behind, couldn't help but rub her forehead.

Then, just as they found a private room in the largest restaurant and settled down, before they could even properly enjoy the excitement, there was a knock on the door.

"Your Highness, the Emperor will enter the palace immediately."

Fu Hanlai, holding a peanut in his hand: "..."

Ah this

Is it that fast?
