Chapter 376: Love outside the law
On the other side, Nanny Zhuang hurried to the Queen's side and quietly slipped a note into her hand.

The queen was taking a nap in a recliner. After flipping through the note and glancing at it, she immediately sat up straight with a solemn expression.

"This jade fox is really weird." A trace of panic flashed in the depths of Madam Zhuang's eyes. "More than half of our manpower has been lost. They disappear without a trace every time."

"My lady, I suggest that we stop here for now and find out what is going on first."

The queen stared at the few words on the paper with eyes as sharp as knives.

[The enemy is unknown, they are all top-notch masters, there may be two groups...]

The handwriting was illegible and stained with blood. It seemed that it was a message left by a secret guard before his death.

"Where did you find the note?" asked the queen coldly.

"It's tucked into the crack in the corner, and it's quite inconspicuous."

"Ha." The queen sneered again, "Warning me."

Madam Zhuang's pupils shrank sharply. "Madam, do you mean that the other party left it there on purpose?"

"A corpse can disappear without a trace, so there's no reason for it to leave a small note like this for us."

The queen's eyes sparkled, "This Jade Fox, you really underestimated her."

"Could it be the work of those judges from the Demon Suppression Division?"

The queen shook her head. "We have already sent people to keep an eye on them. Apart from visiting the Su residence, they have been going to and from the government office on time these days."

"Who could that be?"

The piece of Cambodian paper in the Queen's hand was crumpled by her without her noticing.

"The emperor sent her a lot of supplements today?"

"Yes." Madam Zhuang also found this unbelievable. "Isn't your Majesty's attitude towards her a little too good?"

"Hmph." The Queen couldn't help but sneer, "Your Majesty knows her abilities better than anyone else. She did a lot of shady things for Your Majesty in the past, and secretly dealt with a group of treacherous villains."

"No wonder the queen said she is a good knife." Madam Zhuang sighed.

It’s a pity that the court doesn’t really need a disobedient weapon.

"The Imperial Master has been successful in all these years, but when you see her you have to be humble and submissive." The Queen sneered.

In the first encounter, even one of his clones was killed. It seems that the ability of this national teacher is just this level.

The queen sighed again, "Send someone to keep a close eye on Guoguo and don't let her do anything that would bring shame upon herself."

"I heard that the princess is trying to get an invitation to the Su residence to hold a banquet."

The queen slammed her hand on the table and said, "Keep a close eye on her. Don't let her go out of the palace and make trouble again during this period of time."

The queen really had no idea of ​​her own capabilities, and was worried that Guoguo might accidentally destroy her.

Madam Zhuang was both worried and annoyed. "Madam, should we just...put aside the matter of the jade fox for now?"

"Didn't you also say you wanted to find out who was behind her?"

The queen said calmly, "Sending batches of people over would just be a waste of our own manpower, so let's just keep our troops in place for now." "There's always a way to deal with it." The queen slowly closed her eyes.

Let her go wild for a while.

The higher you climb, the more miserable the harvest will be.
-
On the first day that Yu Linlang came back to work, Lord Ximen packed up his bags and went to the teahouse to clean up.

She set about dealing with the Jin Lai Fu case which had been delayed for seven or eight days.

On the day when the verdict was announced, the streets were deserted and everyone was scrambling to get a good seat outside the court to watch.

When Lady Yuhu came out in the dress of a female official, all her fans were stunned and stared at her face.

It was not until Lord Jade Fox banged the gavel and scolded everyone that they woke up.

"The deceased, Jin Laifu, was the only son of the Jin family. From birth till now, he had nothing to eat and clothes to wear. He usually never got out of bed, let alone farm."

"He was a young man in his twenties, but he never earned a penny for his family and even got into gambling. He not only reached out to his eldest sister's husband and sold his land and house, but also sold his eldest sister's only daughter, his niece Qiu Tingfang, to the Jinhua gambling house to pay off his debts."

"Qiu Tingfang is only nine years old and a good citizen. Jin Laifu's actions have seriously violated Article 18 of Volume 1 of the Great Qi Code. The crime of wantonly selling good citizens is punishable by more than three years in prison."

"Although the law is unforgiving and the Great Qi law clearly states that murderers shall be hanged, there is still mercy outside the law. Considering Jin Lai Di's special situation, she has been oppressed and suffered by her original family for many years. Even after getting married, she had to go home every day to serve her brother with food and clothing."

"Her daughter was captured by her brother and taken to a gambling house to pay off a debt. Jin Lai Di loved her daughter deeply and was eager to protect her, so it was understandable that she fought back." Yu Linlang slowed down her voice when she said this, and her eyes swept over everyone in the hall one by one.

Kneeling in the hall were the old Jintou couple, Jin Laidi's three sisters, Qiu Tingfang, Wang Dali, Wang Niangzi and others, all looking up at her.

"According to the Great Qi law, Jin Lai Di is now sentenced to death. She can be exiled to Qianzhou and is not allowed to leave Qianzhou for fifteen years."

After the verdict was announced, Jin Lai Di and her daughter kept saying "Thank you, sir" and burst into tears.

Although he had to leave his hometown and be exiled to Qianzhou, 3,000 miles away, at least his life was saved.

Jin Lai Di was surprised and delighted as she hugged Qiu Tingfang. The other two sisters of the Jin family, Wang Niang and others also knelt beside her, kowtowed repeatedly to express their gratitude, and secretly wiped their tears with their sleeves.

The only ones who were displeased were the old Jintou couple. Old Mrs. Jin even jumped up and shouted in public, "Sir, this wicked woman killed my son, how can we let her go?"

Yu Linlang slammed the gavel and shouted angrily, "Look carefully at who this bitch is. Isn't Jin Lai Di your biological daughter who crawled out of your belly?"

"In this case, the uncle sold his niece, and the sister killed her brother out of anger. What caused the tragedy? Don't you really know it at all?"

"This human tragedy was caused by you and your wife's lack of knowledge, your blind preference for boys over girls, and your completely wrong educational methods!"

"Spoiling a child is like killing him. This is a truth that has been around since ancient times. A good man is lazy every day and needs someone to take care of him when he poops or pees in bed. At the critical moment, can he fight in a war or kill the enemy? Can he go to the fields or work? He can't do anything. You are no better than a raw barbecued pork."

There was laughter outside.

The old Jintou couple looked stunned and looked at Lord Jade Fox with a furious face.

"The reason why your children have come to this point of hatred and harming each other is entirely because of you! Love is not indulgence or letting children grow up crooked. It is because of your unlimited indulgence and lawlessness that you have raised such a good son who is unfilial to his parents, unkind to his sisters, unkind to his younger generation, and unrighteous to his family and country."

"His wickedness is so prominent that it is outrageous to all men and gods!"

"Children are all a matter of fate. Whether it is a good fate or a bad fate is entirely up to you. As long as they are filial, have noble character and good health, whether they are sons or daughters, smart or mediocre, they are all your blessings."

Yu Linlang said this coldly, and then called the head of the village over to give him a lecture.
