It was just past noon when the gongs and drums suddenly came to mind outside the Beijing Yamen, which startled everyone who was dozing in the Yamen.

Master Yuan and Master Gou came out in a daze, and hurriedly went to the hall to ask: "Who is watching the gongs and drums?"

The yamen servant replied: "Sir, it is a woman."

A woman came to play the gongs and drums, which was a bit surprising. I wonder what happened?

"Go and bring the people up!"

Shen Qingjia was taken to the court and saw two adults.

Mr. Yuan patted the table in the hall and asked, "Who is this person in the hall? Tell me your name!"

Shen Qingjia stood up straight and replied: "Little girl Shen Qingjia!"

"Shen Qingjia?"

Master Yuan felt a little familiar.

Lord Gou didn't think about it for a moment and said, "Why are you here? Who do you want to sue?"

Shen Qingjia: "My little girl is here to sue the Chu family's Crown Prince, accusing him of kidnapping and imprisoning me for no reason!"

"what?"

Mr. Yuan was the first to be startled, and it took him a while to react.

"You...are you the daughter of the Shen family of Gold Bank? Shen Qingjia?"

"Master, it's me!"

Master Yuan and Master Gou looked at each other with a bad premonition in their hearts.

The daughter of the Shen family is suing Prince Chu?

Why is Prince Chu causing trouble again? Are you still suing me?

Master Yuan had a serious face, trying to intimidate Shen Qingjia: "Shen Qingjia! Since you are in court! Why don't you kneel down!"

Shen Qingjia was stunned for a moment, she really wasn't in the habit of kneeling yet.

But now that he wanted to file a lawsuit, he naturally had to abide by the rules of the government. Shen Qingjia knelt down gently and said loudly: "Sir, this little girl is suing the Chu Crown Prince of the Chu family for kidnapping me and imprisoning me!"

Master Yuan felt a little special when he saw this woman kneeling down without being humble or arrogant, speaking clearly, and not being intimidated by the court in the slightest.

"You said Prince Chu kidnapped you, do you have any evidence?"

"Have!"

Shen Qingjia said very firmly.

"What evidence do you have?"

Mr. Yuan is not a faint official, but the power of the Chu family is so great that even the emperor, who has a heavy army in his hands, is afraid of him. He is also afraid of offending the Chu family and ruining his official career, so occasionally when the Chu family causes trouble, he usually turns a blind eye. It passed with one eye closed.

Master Yuan also wanted to use this trick this time. He wanted to trick Shen Qingjia so that he could inform the Prince of Chu and easily resolve the danger.

But Shen Qingjia didn't fall for the trick and said, "Sir, please invite Prince Chu into the hall, and I will present my evidence."

"Shen Qingjia! You have to think carefully. If you insist on making a big fuss this time, it will tarnish your reputation!"

A woman's reputation is the most important thing, and Mr. Yuan also wants to persuade Shen Qingjia to give up, lest he hesitate between offending the nobles and his conscience.

Shen Qingjia said, "Sir, when I come here this time, I have prepared for the worst. You'd better tell the Prince of Chu to come as soon as possible!"

Master Yuan glanced at Master Gou, who blinked and lowered his head. He was also very embarrassed about this matter and didn't know how to solve it!

"Shen Qingjia! You have to think about it carefully. According to the laws of our court, if a commoner falsely accuses a noble family, he will be imprisoned!"

"I'm not afraid!"

Master Yuan frowned, a little displeased, but still said to the Yamen servant: "Go to the Chu Family and invite the Prince of Chu to come!"

"Yes! Your lord!"

……

On the street, the people were minding their own business.

Pei'er came with a few servants.

"Pe'er, do we really want to do this? If this gets publicized, the lady's reputation will be ruined..." The servants and servants were a little hesitant.

Pei'er said, "This is what the young lady ordered. Hurry up! Don't delay the young lady's affairs!"

"Fine……"

The boys started to move, and suddenly they beat the gong loudly and shouted: "Everyone, hurry up and go to the capital to see the excitement! The prince of Chu kidnapped a good girl and was taken to court! The officials are afraid that the Chu family is powerful , I want officials to protect each other!"

"The Prince of Chu is lawless and defies the king's law. He is being sued in court. Everyone, go and see him!"

"..."

Under the fierce shouts of the Shen family's servants, the people couldn't help but become curious, and gathered together in twos and threes to whisper.

"Chu Shizi? That dandy! He was actually brought to court?

"Prince Chu once hit my stall with his horse! If I hadn't been able to dodge quickly, I would have almost died!"

"I accidentally bumped into Prince Chu once, and he broke one of my legs! It's still hurting now!"

"Then why don't you go to the government to file a complaint?"

"The Marquis of Chu holds a large number of troops from the imperial court. How dare I offend him?"

"Let's go and have a look! Let's see who is so bold this time and dares to sue Prince Chu!"

"..."

"Everyone, follow me to the capital office!"

The Shen family's servants were beating gongs and drums, leading a group of people to the capital office.

……

The people from the Jing Yamen rushed to the Chuhou Mansion and told the truth about Shen Qingjia's lawsuit against the Prince of Chu. However, Chu You generally did not live in the Hou Mansion, so the people from the Jing Yamen rushed to nothing.

The current head of the Hou Mansion is Chu Hou's concubine, Mrs. Xu. The Xu family gave birth to the second son of the Hou Mansion and Chu Hou liked it. Therefore, she has always disliked Chu You, the little overlord. When she learned that Chu You was being sued in court , immediately called his son: "Let's go! Let's go and have a look, lest he ruin the reputation of our Marquis Mansion!"

Chu Min, the second son of Chu, said: "Mother, let's not go. Just pretend we don't know. Otherwise, if father knows that we are standing by, he will definitely be concerned and can secretly inquire about the situation."

"My son, you are still smart!"

Mrs. Xu looked at her son in Yushu Linfeng, and she became more and more dissatisfied with the ferocious Chu You. He was so ignorant and misbehaving. If his biological mother hadn't been of a good background, how could he be the heir apparent of the Hou family?

In Mrs. Xu's heart, the throne should belong to her son.

The Xu family has been favored by Chu Hou all these years, and her son is also favored in front of Chu Hou. It is inevitable that her ambition will expand and she wants to get rid of Chu You.

……

The people from the Jing Yamen made room in the Hou Mansion and then went to the private residence of the Prince of Chu.

When Zhang Tian learned about this, he hurriedly went to report to his eldest son: "Your eldest son, Miss Shen is taking you to court!"

"Oh?" Chu You was a little surprised, the fierceness on his face suddenly dissipated, and after a while, he even laughed out loud.

"Your Majesty, why are you still smiling?"

Zhang Tian was worried, what did Miss Shen think, smashing the prince to such a degree, and even taking the prince to court!

Even if she doesn't care about the prince's life or death, she should still care about her own reputation!

If a woman is kidnapped and imprisoned for many days, no matter whether her innocence is damaged or not, she will be criticized in the eyes of the world.

"Your Majesty, do you want your injury treated?"

The wounds on Chu You's head and neck have been treated, but Chu You still has a wound on his arm. It is very small and subtle, but this mark is enough to be pointed out.

Chu You touched his arm and sneered: "So, this is her plan!"

"Your Majesty, what should we do? Why don't you go down and say hello to Lord Yuan? You said you are sick..."

"Why bother!"

The smile on Chu You's face was very strange. He stood up and strode outside, as if he had some plans.

Zhang Tian didn't understand, but he could only follow.
