The whole family is in limbo? He went crazy after listening to Zai's voice

Chapter 61 Xiao Yuankai was arrested

"You're talking nonsense! This is obviously true!" Cheng Hu gritted his teeth and looked at him.

"You say it's true, does that mean it's true? Then I say it's false!" Xiao Yuankai looked like a rogue.

Then he looked around with an arrogant expression, fell on Li Wanjing, glanced at him provocatively, and then cupped his hands in the direction of Old General Li.

"If there is nothing else, I will take my leave now."

"stop!"

Li Wanjing stopped him, "You can't leave until the matter is cleared up."

"Why, based on a pariah's empty slander and forged evidence, do you still want to arrest me in the street?"

Then, Xiao Yuankai sneered, "Don't blame me for not reminding you. I am the son of an important minister. I come from a well-known family. If you can't produce any evidence, you will arrest me rashly. Tomorrow's impeachment of your Li family will probably flood the Tai'an Palace!"

The people watching did not expect that he could say such arrogant words, and they were all filled with indignation.

Across the street, the prince put Yaoyao down, told the guards to keep an eye on her, and then walked this way.

It's his turn.

Chu Yaoyao stamped her little feet angrily.

【You didn’t even take me with you! 】

Hearing the threat in Xiao Yuankai's words, Cheng Hu wiped his face, pulled the corners of his mouth in a self-deprecating manner, and showed a smile that was uglier than crying.

"That's all. If the general is persecuted in the future because of this incident, ordinary people will never be able to atone for this crime."

Then he bowed deeply to the Li family and his son, "Thank you, General Li, for your kindness."

Seeing this, Xiao Yuankai sneered, "It would have been better if I had done this earlier. I had to jump out and spoil my good mood."

Cheng Hu stared at his back and took out a dagger from his sleeve.

Even if they die together today, he will avenge his father!
General Li noticed his intention, snatched the dagger away with quick eyes and hands, and shouted loudly: "Come here, take down Xiao Yuankai!"

"Let's see who dares!" Xiao Yuankai glared at the soldiers who wanted to step forward.

But how could the soldiers listen to him? They were immediately surrounded by their masters and servants.

Old General Li said loudly: "The people have grievances, and since I have encountered them, there is absolutely no reason to turn a blind eye!"

Xiao Yuankai swallowed nervously, "You and my father have been officials in the same court for decades. Do you really want to hurt the harmony between the two families for this unfounded thing?"

"Because we are colleagues, I have to find out more. If you are really innocent, wouldn't it be better to clear your name?" Old General Li looked at him.

Facing this sharp look, Xiao Yuankai's eyes subconsciously dodge, "That's fine, then I will give you a face, and go to the prison for a walk. Anyway, I will be out soon."

As he spoke, he stared at the man who was kneeling on the ground and kept thanking him.

Cheng Hu, right? When I come out of prison, you will be unable to survive or die!

"General, I can testify."

Hearing this voice, the prince paused.

Is there any unexpected surprise?
The person who spoke was the old woman who was almost pushed to the ground by Xiao Yuankai before. The strong man supported her and walked to General Li.

"Three years ago, I personally saw Xiao Yuankai leading people to break into Gu Yixuan. Then there were constant screams inside, and finally they set a fire outside."

"You bullshit!"

Xiao Yuankai tried to push away the soldiers blocking him, but he was not strong enough and could only jump to his feet while pointing at the mother and son and yelling.

Then he rolled his eyes and said, "I know, it must be because of what happened just now, so you hold a grudge and help that man surnamed Cheng to slander me!"

The old woman took out a purse from her arms and poured out the contents. It was a white jade ring.

She sighed, "Three years ago, I was afraid that telling the truth would result in retaliation from the Xiao family, so I didn't come forward to testify. Over the past three years, I have been tortured by guilt every day. Now, I can finally sleep peacefully."

After handing the ring to General Li, she showed a relieved smile.

Old General Li raised his finger and looked at Xiao Yuankai, "If I remember correctly, this is a reward from the emperor to the Xiao family. What else do you have to say now!"

As early as the moment he saw the finger pull, Xiao Yuankai's legs became weak, and he relied on the help of the servant to barely stand still.

But he still had a glimmer of hope and continued to quibble.

"The emperor has not only rewarded the Xiao family. As you said, aren't all the ministers who were rewarded suspects?"

At this time, the prince came over and said, "Everything given by the emperor has a unique mark. The year and month and the person to whom it was given will be recorded in the book. Just go to the Ministry of Rites to check them one by one, and the truth will be revealed."

"See His Highness the Crown Prince!" The Li family's father and son saluted immediately when they saw him.

The people also knelt on the ground and shouted that the prince would live longer.

"Get up."

In the crowd, someone saw his gentle attitude and couldn't help but asked directly, "Dare you ask Your Highness the Crown Prince, will the Xiao family really be punished for the Cheng family case?" "Of course!"

The prince looked at the man and affirmed: "As long as he really commits a crime, I promise you as the prince that he will be severely punished!"

As soon as these words came out, the people knelt down again and shouted excitedly: "His Royal Highness is a thousand years old!"

"Everyone please get up quickly."

It seemed that the prince's appearance gave everyone a reassurance.

Suddenly someone in the crowd raised his hand, "Your Highness, the common people are going to sue Xiao Yuankai. He robbed the common people's daughter! He took away my sister!"

"And me, I want to sue Xiao Yuankai for occupying the store. He said he wanted to buy it, but in fact he didn't even give me a tael of silver!"

"And my family, he robbed me of a cow!"

"He, he stole my candied haws!"

As soon as the child's words came out, everyone changed their nervousness and started laughing.

……

Seeing that something was wrong, the Xiao Mansion boy hurriedly got out of the crowd and ran away after a while.

Li Wanjing wanted to catch them back, but was stopped by the prince.

Looking at the direction in which the two boys were running, he slightly raised the corners of his mouth. If he didn't report the news, how could the play continue?
At the corner of the street, after seeing all this, Shangguan Zhi turned around and asked, "How is the situation over there with Li Wanfeng?"

"The news came from Qingdie that the fish has taken the bait."

Hearing this, Shangguan Zhi nodded with satisfaction, looking at the Li family and his son in the crowd, a cold look flashed in his eyes, "The Li family is a serious problem after all."

Returning to the carriage, the prince looked at the father and son, "I leave the residence and safety of those three people to you."

"I obey your orders."

Chu Yaoyao, who learned the truth from the system, looked serious and thoughtful at the moment.

[It turns out that all this was arranged by the prince’s brother. It’s such a thief! 】

The voice came again.

The Li family father and son looked at each other and focused on the only baby.

This is?

It looks a bit like Wanzhi.

"You beep..." Li Wanjing touched his neck, frowned and coughed twice.

what happened?

After seeing the prince's slightly warning eyes, the two could only temporarily suppress their doubts.

[Why don’t my grandfather and uncle seem to recognize me? My uncle still wants me to shut up, but I haven’t spoken yet. 】

The prince held his forehead. When the Li family went to the border, you were not born yet. It would be strange to recognize you.

They didn't listen carefully before, but now when they heard the name again, the father and son were surprised at first, and then ecstatic.

General Li: So this is what my daughter mentioned in the letter, his granddaughter!
Li Wanjing: So this is what my sister said, his niece!
【Don't you like me? 】

Chu Yaoyao drooped her little head, looking extremely sad.

Seeing her aggrieved little look, the father and son felt distressed and anxious, and looked at the prince as if asking for help.

"Look at my memory. The general has never met his granddaughter. This is Yaoyao. Concubine Shu has given birth to a little princess for my father."

Hearing this, Chu Yaoyao raised her head and blinked her wet eyes.

[It turns out that my grandfather and uncle didn’t recognize me because they had never seen me before. 】

After figuring this out, she immediately opened her mouth and shouted softly, "Grandpa!"

"Hey!"

Old General Li smiled happily and was about to pick her up when he noticed the armor on his body and reluctantly put down his hand, "I will wait until grandpa changes clothes before I hug you."

This stuff is so irritating, I should have known better than to wear it!
Hearing the soft voice just now, Li Wanjing looked at Yaoyao expectantly.

After calling father, is it his turn this time?
Chu Yaoyao didn't let him wait too long and looked at him with her big black eyes.

"Uncle!"

Li Wanjing was immediately satisfied, stroking the back of his head and grinning, "So good!"

[Hey, my eldest uncle is so stupid. No wonder I can’t tell who my eldest aunt really likes. 】
