My Ancient Stepson Bootcamp

Chapter 35 Another Mastermind
"You little woman is quite courageous. Why, the Xu family really has no one left. Let you show up as a woman in the back house. Xu Junze is really good at managing the family!" Di Yao squinted at Lin Shuran, even if her father It is Taifu, he is not afraid.

Facing the aggressive and aggressive Di Yao, Lin Shuran never showed any sign of shrinking back, but straightened her body even more, as if she was a bit stronger than Di Yao in terms of momentum.

"My husband Jun is not as good as Hou Ye in governing the family. Who in the capital does not know that Guangping Hou's mansion has a great reputation for producing virtuous wives and raising filial sons!" Lin Shuran said, everyone present who knew something inside Dumbfounded, General Xu's wife is really daring to say that.

As we all know, Di Yao, the Marquis of Guangping, lost his wife early and left behind a son, Zhai Zilu, who is now the eldest son. Later, Zhai Yao married a young and beautiful new wife. Who would have thought that this new wife would conspire with the housekeeper? The affair between the two became known to everyone, and it was his own son Zhai Zilu who broke the news.

Besides, this son of the Marquis Mansion is not talented in all aspects of civil and martial arts, but he is an expert in eating, drinking, whoring and gambling. He is a well-known playboy, but he always pretends to be filial and obedient in front of his father, and Zhai Yao dotes on him very much.

"You—hmph, you are eloquent!" As if someone had torn the fig leaf off, Di Yao was extremely annoyed, and was about to explode again, when Fu Yin Zhang Min stepped forward to persuade him, "Master Hou, Lord Hou, let's talk about the case first. Bar!"

Di Yao angrily sat down on the chair beside him, Zhang Min also asked Lin Shuran to sit down on the opposite side, then Luo Butou went up to him and whispered in his ear, Zhang Min nodded, and then the Yachai pulled out A ten-year-old boy shivering with sallow complexion asked him to identify the seventh young master of the Xu family who was in the hall.

The young man shook his body in fear at first, then looked up and saw a group of boys who looked almost identical, his face was full of puzzlement and doubt, the clerk asked him to recognize him, but he shook his head and couldn't recognize any of them.

"Tell me, who is that kid from the Xu family!" Zhai Yao roared angrily. In fact, he didn't know who was Xu Minghao. He came here today to shock Zhang Min, the governor of the government. It was the Xu family who actually stole. Then make Xu Junze look ugly, and hit him with a sum of money as compensation.

The boy knelt on the ground in fright, shook his head vigorously and said, "I——I forgot!"

The young man's answer gave Lin Shuran some confidence, and also made the prefect Zhang Min fall into deep thought. He looked at the slightly irritable Di Yao, and then at the calm Lin Shuran, and asked the Yacha to bring another one.

Then, the yacha brought in another boy who was older than the boy just now. He looked around at the boys standing side by side, and shook his head blankly. He didn't know anyone among them.

Then, the yamen sent the rest of the people to the court to admit them one by one, but they either recognized the wrong person, or they shook their heads vigorously and said nothing.

"Bold and unreasonable, you said in the hall that the person who asked you to steal things from the Zhenbao Pavilion was the Seventh Young Master of the General's Mansion, but now you don't recognize him, and say, why did you frame the courtier's family?!" Zhang Min said fiercely. He slapped the gavel hard, making all the young prisoners tremble in fright, and some of them cried in fright.

"Say it quickly, let's not say that you will be beaten and exiled to the frontier as a severe punishment!" Zhang Min's eyes were cold and stern, showing his official authority.

"Back—return to the Elder Master, the man said that he is the Seventh Young Master of General Xu's Mansion, and that his family had an enmity with the Zhenbao Pavilion, and that's why he let us steal things. You guys really don't know who he is!" The older boy said in a crying voice.

"Do you remember what that man looked like?" Zhang Min continued to ask.

"Remember, remember!" The boy nodded quickly.

Zhang Min originally wanted to recruit a painter to let the young man tell the appearance of the envoy, but at this time Lin Shuran said that she could do it for him.

How dare Zhang Min agree, now that it has been found out that this matter has nothing to do with the Xu family, he is worried that Xu Junze and Lin Shuran will blame the government office for their poor handling of affairs. Will General Xu kill him alive?

"Master Zhang, although there is someone else who is the mastermind of this matter and has nothing to do with my Xu family, but that person deliberately framed my seventh son, I also want to catch him earlier to find out the truth. My painting skills are really good, let me Let me come!" Lin Shuran volunteered, Zhang Min looked at the Marquis of Guangping again, and saw that he was depressed alone, as if he was dissatisfied that the prisoners did not recognize the Seventh Young Master of the Xu family.

"This—" Zhang Min hesitated. Seeing Lin Shuran's firm attitude, he didn't dare to refuse again. He was afraid that he would offend her. The position was not stable, so he said humbly, "Then there will be Mrs. Lau Xu!"

"You are Welcome!"

Afterwards, Zhang Min asked people to prepare tables, chairs, pens, ink, paper and inkstones for Lin Shuran, and then warned the young prisoners to carefully recall the appearance of the criminal, and Lin Shuran was very serious about each stroke, and soon a lifelike and lifelike portrait was drawn. alright.

"That's right, it's him, it's him!" Lin Shuran finished the drawing, and then showed the young prisoners, they all exclaimed that it was this person.

When the portrait was shown to the Guangping Houfu and Zhang Min in the hall, Guangping Hou Diyao jumped up from the chair and stared at the portrait with wide eyes, but Zhang Min was a little puzzled. The Marquis of Guangping's reaction was too big.

"This is Zhai Zifei, the young master of the Guangping Marquis's Mansion!" Xu Minghao also saw the portrait, and he immediately recognized this person, "I fought with him on the street, so it turned out that he framed me!"

Zhang Min never expected that things would turn around like this. It was the youngest son of Guangping Hou Diyao who ordered the gang of thieves to steal.

"Master Hou, it seems that the young master must be invited here for a question!" Zhang Min turned to Guangping Hou Dirao and said.

Unexpectedly, Di Yao became irritable when he heard it, and said angrily, "What are you asking? These are just a bunch of slanderous thieves. They just lost a gold hairpin. I don't want it anymore. Let's just let it go!"

After finishing speaking, Di Yao got up and was about to leave, but at this time Lin Shuran said loudly: "That's impossible, since you already know who the main culprit is, you don't have to pursue it at the Guangping Marquis House, but my Grand General's House will never let it go and be wronged." Aggrieved, where is the law of the country, where is the justice."

Then, she glanced at Zhai Yao and Zhang Min again, then walked in front of Xu Minghao, took his hand and stood in the middle of the courtroom, and said in a clear and forceful voice: "I, Xu Jiaerlang, is pure and innocent. Straightforward, dare to act bravely, being framed today, you Guangping Marquis Mansion and Jingcheng Mansion will definitely give my old seven an explanation, otherwise I will submit a paper of complaint to the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, and the Imperial Palace to seek justice for my old seven justice!"
