Chapter 61: Ten Thousand Blossom Building's Crisis
Chapter 61: Overcoming the Crisis in the Ten Thousand Flowers Tower
"It's hard to stop me. I want to see the edicts and edicts in your hands!" Lin Youtong obviously would not be frightened by these few words, and immediately offered to personally check the edicts and edicts in Su Xuan's hands.
.
The imperial edict was issued by the chief officials of the six ministries, and the handwritten edict was issued by the superior officials to the lower-level officials. These two things are extremely authoritative and can be regarded as the standard for dealing with officials involved in the entire Zhou Dynasty. Before obtaining these two things, the imperial court
Magistrates cannot be interrogated or sentenced.
Originally, Lin Youtong believed that Su Xuan and the others did not have complete procedures for handling the case, and he could definitely protect Xue Wenhai, but now Li Minghao said in front of everyone that Su Xuan had these two things, so he naturally needed to check it himself.
You must know that Zhao Dongchen, the magistrate of Yuzhou, is a master who recognizes money but not people. If you want to get Shangguan's handwriting from him, you will definitely not get less than 18,000 taels of silver.
What's more, although this Zhao Dongchen is greedy for money, he is timid. When it comes to the affairs of the Prince Consort and His Highness the Princess, he will definitely not dare to get involved. After all, he will first choose to stay away from this matter where he has a life to make money and not a life to spend.
Therefore, Lin Youtong would not believe anything he said before seeing this handwriting with his own eyes.
As for the imperial edict, it was issued personally by the senior officials of the six ministries and academies, so that the officials handling the case could handle the case more reasonably and legally.
Su Xuan was just a small county magistrate, and she had no special background, and she could not obtain such a precious thing. Therefore, Lin Youtong did not believe what Su Xuan and the others said at all, and asked for an inspection on the spot.
Su Xuan stared at Li Minghao at this time, her eyes full of blame. In fact, when Li Minghao said that, she already felt that something was going to happen.
Now Lin Consort has to check the edicts and warrants in person. Doesn't she know as well as Li Minghao whether there are any? This will be extremely embarrassing. How can she get these things?
Just when Su Xuan didn't know how to deal with it, Li Minghao immediately let go of Xue Wenhai's hand, then took out a jade square object from his pocket and handed it to Lin Youtong's hand.
Since Lin Youtong planned to test this thing personally, Lin Youtong should be able to distinguish the authenticity from the fake, so Li Minghao did not hesitate and threw the thing in his hand to Lin's consort.
Consort Lin took the thing, opened the bottom, and examined it carefully. He was so frightened that he couldn't help but tremble, and his face turned pale for an instant. Then he looked up at Li Minghao in surprise and disbelief, and then held the thing in both hands.
, walked up to Li Minghao respectfully and handed the things back to Li Minghao.
This move made Su Xuan even more surprised. She didn't even know what Li Minghao showed Lin's consort, and she didn't know that Lin's face turned like this after seeing the thing, so she became even more curious about what it was.
So Su Xuan walked a few steps over, intending to take a closer look at the finely carved square thing. Li Minghao quickly put the thing away, not intending to show it to Su Xuan at all.
When Su Xuan saw this move, she was naturally displeased. She immediately turned her back, as if she would knock him down without even noticing. She probably even scolded the boy several times in her heart.
"Lin Consort, do you need us to present anything else now?" Li Minghao looked at Lin Youtong again at this time, and asked Lin Youtong immediately.
"Of course it's not necessary!" Although Prince Consort Lin was unwilling to do so, he was helpless. After all, this matter was no longer within his control, so for the time being he could only accept his fate and accept the fact that Su Xuan and the others arrested Xue Wenhai.
"Prince-in-law, little An is working hard for the princess and the prince-in-law. You can't just die without saving me!" When Xue Wenhai heard this, his original arrogance immediately disappeared without a trace, and he immediately said to Lin's prince-in-law.
He knew very well that if he fell into the hands of Su Xuan, with Su Xuan's agility and intelligence, she would soon be able to detect his involvement in the two murder cases, and I was afraid that he would not have a good life by then, so
Lin's consort became his only life-saving straw, and he had to hold on tightly, otherwise he would be doomed.
"Xue Wenhai, the princess and I thank you for your loyalty to us, but this matter is too big and beyond the control of the princess and I, but don't worry, we will do our best to rescue you, and you can follow with peace of mind
Sir, please go!" The prince-in-law comforted him and immediately said such words of comfort to Xue Wenhai.
"Prince-in-law..." Xue Wenhai seemed to have something else to say, but the prince-in-law did not let him continue and blocked his right to continue speaking on the spot.
"You must strive for leniency from Mr. Chi, think clearly about your past, and confess in front of Mr. Chi as soon as possible. For the sake of your loyalty to me and Her Royal Highness, we will definitely help your family during this time.
Take good care of them and never let them suffer any insult!" Consort Lin put his hands on Xue Wenhai's shoulders at this time to stop Xue Wenhai from continuing, and immediately mentioned helping Xue Wenhai take care of his family.
Xue Wenhai didn't dare to struggle, let alone resist. Suddenly, the words he wanted to say were swallowed back, and he stopped talking.
"Thank you Prince Consort for your magnanimity and not arguing with us adults!" Li Minghao said at this time, and turned to Su Xuan and said, "Sir, we can leave now!"
"Take Xue Wenhai, let's go!" When Su Xuan heard this, she became suspicious of Li Minghao's identity. After all, how could an ordinary rich kid have the two things she needed? And as soon as those things appeared
, the arrogant Lin Consort lost her temper on the spot, which naturally aroused her curiosity to know the truth.
Although she wanted to know how Li Minghao dealt with Lin's consort, everything had been settled now, and she didn't want to stir up a thousand waves with one stone and make things that had been settled become ripples again.
Li Minghao responded immediately, then dragged Xue Wenhai and followed Su Xuan out of the gatehouse of Wanhua Building, onto the street, and was on his way to Yizhuang.
When Prince Consort Lin saw Su Xuan and the others walking out of the door, he immediately waved to the shopkeeper of Wanhualou and said, "Go and find out for me the origin of the master next to Chi Rui!"
Consort Lin knew very well that Su Xuan did not have much background. Under normal circumstances, this kind of answer would not fall into the hands of a small magistrate like her. But now that Li Minghao is looking after Su Xuan like this, he can't help but be curious about the origin of this so-called master.
.
The reason why this task was assigned to Wanhua Tower is because most of the guests received by Wanhua Tower are dignitaries, and they can clearly know something about this information.
Moreover, their identities have nothing to do with the Princess Mansion, and they have less to do with the government, so he asked the shopkeeper of Wanhua Building to do this.
