Chapter 242 The Forgotten Person

"you know me?"

King Fu's eyebrows were lowered, and he had the feeling of a fierce tiger crouching on the hill, ready to attack.

Yang Liang took two steps closer, arched his body, and said: "Although we have never met, he has been famous for a long time. His Royal Highness Prince Fu is the pillar supporting the prosperity of the world. As the saying goes, there are clouds when a dragon walks, and there is wind when a tiger walks. Your Highness has a natural body. He has an extraordinary aura, so I can tell it right away."

Zhang Qian and Qin Wan looked at each other and thought, this new Shangguan is very good.

King Fu snorted coldly from the wing of his nose and said: "You are the top scholar in Jinke. I originally thought you were a pillar of talent selected by the imperial court, but I didn't expect you are also a smooth-tongued person."

Yang Liang cupped his hands and said, "Students always speak from the bottom of their hearts. Even if they make His Highness unhappy, they still have to speak out."

King Fu turned around, clasped his hands behind his back and said, "It's rare that you still have the heart to do things. You came here on the first day you took office."

Yang Liang rolled his eyes. It seemed that King Fu already knew that he had taken office today and that he had taken over the case.

In this way, he knew that he would come, so he waited here on purpose.

It's better to probe his tone and see his attitude towards this matter.

"My lord, my condolences. The young prince was in his prime, and yet he suffered such an accident. The Rong people were really cruel."

Snapped!

King Fu slapped his hand heavily on the railing, and Yang Liang felt the air tremble a little.

Looking at the big belly of His Royal Highness, Prince Fu, it seems that he still has some work to do.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will definitely investigate this case to comfort the young Prince's spirit in heaven."

"Investigating the case? Why should we investigate it? Isn't it obvious that the matter is not clear? My son suffered this unreasonable disaster for no reason, but the evildoer went free."

Yang Liang listened to King Fu's indignant look and thought to himself, it seems that King Fu is so determined, but Princess Yushu's method may not work.

He said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, as long as you give me a word, I will handle the case with integrity and will never let a bad person go."

"Well... it is your duty to handle cases impartially. Our Dasheng Dynasty is a territory governed by royal law. Even if ordinary people die, you must handle the case truthfully and not let the evildoers go unpunished."

Yang Liang thought, this is nonsense. How could ordinary people be like the young prince? Otherwise, how could things be so difficult to handle.

This old cunning man wanted revenge, but refused to say a word. Could it be that Princess Yushu was right?

It's better to try his tone in another direction.

Yang Liangxian sighed and said: "The students are ashamed and cannot understand the realm of the prince. However, the Rong people are watching in the north and have peeked at my great country for a long time. This has to be considered. But don't worry, prince, I will make them pay the price."

Prince Fu nodded and said, "Remember the four words I told you, handle the case impartially."

After hearing his words, Yang Liang knew something was right. Princess Yushu had indeed figured out what Prince Fu was thinking.

The angry look he put on just now was just to ask for a higher price.

Yang Liang suddenly felt a little unmotivated. It turned out that justice was not very valuable.

"Your Majesty's instructions must be kept in mind and considered carefully," Yang Liang said.

"Just keep it in mind. The way to be an official is nothing more than serving the country and the people."

"Your Majesty, I want one more thing..."

Seeing Prince Fu about to leave, Yang Liang chased after him: "I want to see the body of the young prince."

"Already buried."

"So fast." Yang Liang was also surprised.

"What's so good about a corpse? If you want to see it, there's another corpse. Do you want to see it?"

Yang Liang asked curiously: "What other corpses are there?" "There was also a little maid, a girl from Fengming Tower, who was also beaten to death that night."

Yang Liang was surprised. He had just heard about this matter. Before interrogating the madam and the girl in the building, no one had ever mentioned this matter.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your advice. I will definitely bear in mind His Majesty's teachings. I will never wrongly accuse a good person, and I will never let a bad person go."

"Ha." Prince Fu's voice seemed particularly cold.

Yang Liang watched King Fu go away, slowly straightened up, and faced the people in Fengming Tower again.

"What is the origin of that maid? Why has no one ever mentioned her?"

The Madam and the others looked at each other. The Madam stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, this maid is called Chun Xiang. I bought it for twenty taels of silver. She is not worth much at all. The government sent someone to ask. It’s my fault that I didn’t think of it for a moment.”

"Be bold!"

Yang Liang said coldly: "She is raised by her parents. If her life is not valuable, why is your life so precious?"

The Madam rolled her eyes a few times, thinking about Yang Liang's intentions, and thought to herself, maybe he wants to use this maid as an excuse to extort a lot of money from me.

However, our backstage was clearly His Highness Prince Fu, didn’t he see it?

Forget it, it's not worth bothering His Royal Highness Prince Fu for such a trivial matter, just take a sum of money from the accountant and send him away, that's it.

I don’t know if the newly appointed Censor has a big appetite.

Just as she was thinking this, she heard Yang Liang ask again: "Where does the maid live and what are her parents' names?"

"I only remember that I bought her from the east of the city. My father is a bad gambler. As for her last name, I don't know."

"Then where is his body now?" Yang Liang asked.

The madam said: "It seems that she was taken away by her father yesterday, right."

Yang Liang took a deep breath, suppressed the unhappiness in his heart, waved his hands and said to Qin Wan and Zhang Qian: "Record these words in the record and ask them to sign and sign."

Unexpectedly, the government in the capital was so sloppy in handling cases. Yang Liang felt that he had to go through this case carefully.

The Madam rolled her eyes. She didn't know why Yang Liang was so careful. According to her years of accumulated experience, usually when he was so careful, he was ready to extort money.

How should I deal with this newly appointed censor?

The Madam took two steps forward and said, "Sir, I have a new batch of goods here. Would you like to go upstairs and help us with the eyes?"

Yang Liang glanced at her and uttered one word: "Get out!"

Soon, Qin Wan and Zhang Qian completed the writing work. Although the madam was reluctant, she still signed and stamped it.

"Sir, are we done today?"

Qin Wan feels that his work is too hard. Today's workload is equivalent to more than half a year.

"How about we go back and take a rest now?"

When the word "go back" came up, Qin Wan and Zhang Qian both seemed impatient.

"Three adults, my servant has already arranged good wine. The three adults must give us face."

"It's easy to talk about." Qin Wan and Zhang Qian nodded at the same time.

"Okay, okay." Yang Liang shouted and said with a gloomy face: "Let's leave the city now!"
