Chapter 180 Acting in accordance with the law



Bai Zhiyue didn't take over and just dodged. Because she had taken strengthening medicine, her speed and strength were very strong, and the assassins couldn't catch up even if they used light skills.

He threw fire bombs while running, setting a trail of fire.

Now all the servants and guards in the mansion were mobilized and ran to put out the fire.

Luo Hou was so angry that he was about to go crazy. He had just learned that his legitimate son was doomed. After revealing the matter, he decided that those people must be killed. He had already made up his mind that after killing Captain Wu and his group, he would kill all the guards as well and then say that it was done by thieves.

The bodies in the underground palace and the courtyard were cleared away overnight. Even if there were suspicions, there was nothing they could do without evidence.

He didn't believe that a thief had broken in before. He knew how tight the security of the Marquis' Mansion was. Ordinary people couldn't get in at all.

It is difficult to say what the purpose of this group of people is, so they must be stopped. But now an unexpected person has really appeared, and the death squad can't catch him, and they even set fire to the house.

If this person doesn't die, his son's safety will still be lost.

Now he began to hate his son. If he had known that he would be like this, he should have strangled him to death with his own hands.

Oh, it's too late to regret now. I didn't take it seriously when I found out. In his eyes, it was just a little hobby. This kind of thing is not uncommon among the nobles. As long as it is not brought to the surface, there is no problem.

After the grandson was born, no one stopped him. Who would have thought that something would happen? He even mutilated himself to such an extent. He was completely useless. How could he hold his head up in the court in the future?

What a curse

"Who on earth is causing chaos in my mansion? Everyone must be captured, even if it means beating them to death!"

"We'll go help too. We must catch him."

The people from the Bingmasi found an opportunity and rushed in.

It was impossible to keep him silent after the situation became like this. I gritted my teeth and decided to make my son confess. After all, he had already said that he was guilty and that he did everything.

She managed to save Captain Wu and his group and the young man in the underground palace. Since she appeared, the palace guards stopped taking action, knowing that killing them would be futile and would only add to their charges.

After seeing that all the soldiers and horses had gathered together and, under the guidance of several children, went to the underground palace and rescued more teenagers, Bai Zhiyue ran out of the Marquis' Mansion and hid in the space.

No matter how hard they searched, they couldn't find it.

The fire was not big, and the many servants put it out quickly.

"My Lord, what should we do about that? They're all in the yard, and we almost attacked them just now. This~"

"They're all useless. They couldn't even stop a petty thief. If they had dealt with him outside the courtyard, there would have been no such thing!"

“It’s our fault.”

"snort!"

It was too late to say anything now. He had to give an explanation for what happened over there, so he had to rush to the deserted courtyard.

Looking at the young men being carried out and the several corpses that had been dug out in the yard, even the knowledgeable people could not help but shake their heads and sigh. Captain Wu saw Luo Hou coming and said,

"My Lord, this matter is of great importance, and the Crown Prince has already confessed his guilt. Please allow us to take him away!"

"It was my negligence. I didn't realize Tianhao had made such a big mistake."

This is when I started pretending not to know.

"My people just offended me. They were just following the rules set by this marquis and they really believed that the prince's accident was caused by someone colluding with the thieves."

Oh, not intentionally.

"My Lord, the thief just now deliberately said he would rescue them. They must be in the same group."

"Forget it, regardless of whether they are in the same group or not, the prince is guilty, and they are here to investigate the case."

Captain Wu Guanzhi was so depressed that he almost died. What the hell? Did they join forces with the thieves? They were just trying to divert attention from the fact that they were going to kill them?

They cannot hold a low position.

"Please understand, my Lord, that we can only act according to the law!"

"Of course I should, but you can see he's seriously injured and in a trance. Could you please let him stay at home for a day or two? When he's better, I'll personally take him to the government office. I won't shield him."

"I'm afraid this is inappropriate!"

"You should take these people away. We will cooperate with any investigation into the Luo Mansion and compensate them in any way you can. However, he cannot appear in court now, otherwise he might not survive another day. Since he has already repented and punished himself, please allow him to be raised for two days.

You've seen that his mental state is truly not normal. Interrogating him at this point won't reveal anything. How about you investigate other things first and let him sober up for two days?"

Captain Wu knew that they couldn't take the people away by force, so he decided to go back and report. With the warrant, even the Marquis couldn't stop them. Since they had both witnesses and evidence, they couldn't escape the crime.

"In that case, we will go back first. We will take these people and the corpses with us. Is that okay with you, Lord?"

“As you should!”

"My Lord, you must also guarantee that the Crown Prince does not leave the Marquisate, otherwise we will not be able to bear the responsibility!"

Luo Hou's face was very ugly. When had he ever been spoken to in such a tone?

"Don't worry, I won't do anything that would be detrimental!"

Oh, I just wanted to kill someone to silence him.

"Yes, my Lord is sensible!"

This statement always has a slapping meaning.

After Captain Wu and his men dug out all the corpses, they collected them and carried them to the yamen.

On the way, he arranged for his men to

"You go back first. Be sure to send more people to protect the witnesses and don't let them get into trouble. I will send Young Master Hu back to Lord Hu's residence."

Originally, these witnesses were not allowed to leave, but Young Master Hu is too young and this incident will affect his life, so it is better to send them back for protection as soon as possible. Even if they want to testify in court, it is best to get the consent of Lord Hu.

"Yes, my lord, be careful too. We don't know where the thief has gone, and it's hard to believe that the people from Paul's Mansion won't chase him and take action. Also, don't we need to send people to keep an eye on the Marquis' Mansion?"

They had just experienced a life-and-death situation, and now they couldn't be completely at ease. Besides, what if they let Luo Tianhao escape?

"Don't worry, he has already given up on Prince Luo and won't attack us again, let alone take Luo Tianhao away, unless he wants to be punished by the Emperor."

Captain Wu saw clearly that Marquis Luo had already sacrificed his pawns to save his chariot. He asked for two days, fearing that he would persuade the prince to take responsibility for everything and not involve the Marquis's Mansion.

Bai Zhiyue returned home only after seeing that the matter was resolved and everyone was safe.

This was the most thrilling night I had ever spent. I was chased by so many assassins and I didn't dare use my gun because I would be recognized if I did. Fortunately, I ran fast enough and changed my shape with my nightgown, otherwise I would have been recognized.

Luo Hou waited until everyone had left before listening to the servant's report.

"My Lord, there were fourteen rooms that were burned. The damage wasn't serious. We can just spend some time replacing the doors and windows and repairing them. But the kitchen was the worst hit because of the oil in it. It burned down completely.

In order to prevent the fire in the main kitchen from spreading to other places, several servants were injured while putting out the fire.

Luo Hou pressed his forehead

"Find more people to repair it as soon as possible. For the time being, you can use the kitchen in the Madam's courtyard. Those who are injured can ask a doctor to prescribe medicine. Each person will be rewarded with 20 taels."

"yes"

"My Lord, the several courtyards of the concubines in the backyard have also been damaged. We need to arrange for new courtyards. Please see~"

"Go to the madam for this kind of thing, don't bother me!"

"yes"
