Chapter 406: Tan Family Mother and Daughter (8)
Several stewards looked pale. They thought that the prince would remember that their family was old members of the palace, and at most beat them up to vent their anger and then sell them out. After all, Zhuo Wang's family had just arrived in Zhuo City, so weren't they afraid of damaging their reputation? Was that what the Yun family promised?
But they never expected that these two people were so unscrupulous... Looking at the smiling princess, whether it was reporting to the authorities or not, the government offices were controlled by the Yun family and the Tan family...
Gritting his teeth, he could only go down this path until the end. He still shouted in grief and indignation, "Please, my lord and princess, please understand me!"
"Okay, then let's see for ourselves!"
Shen Yu leaned her head on Lu Yingxing's shoulder and said calmly, "Cangyu, bring all the family members of these four here... Let's have a clear look in person to see where the money for buying shops and houses came from! I also want to know how wronged you are."
"Guyu, please ask Patrol Officer Qingli to come over. I want to report to the authorities!"
Hearing this, the four managers who were not beaten were full of doubts. Isn't reporting to the government the same as going to the government office? But they didn't dare to ask more.
"Yes, princess."
"You...you can't..." The manager who took the lead in speaking widened his eyes, as if to say how could you be so shameless! !
Of course they knew the name of that inspector. From the time at the Luocheng Post Station to the last banquet at the palace, the princess had relied on this backer to do whatever she wanted, arresting the wife of the city lord and the two legitimate sons and daughters at will...
He thought the princess meant to report to the Zhuocheng government office, but she actually reported to that person? What kind of report to the government was this? That person was clearly his man! !
"What can't I do? Aren't you just dissatisfied? Just report to the police!" She said with a nasty smile.
"Madam...are you tired of talking so much?" Lu Yingxing glanced at the man coldly.
Shen Yu: "…" Your Majesty, you have the potential to become a tyrant.
The three stewards who were also beaten by that man were already disheartened... They were regretting it so much now. If they had known, they would not have been deceived by this man. What was the future of a good steward like this?... How could the future of the city be related to the Yun family of Youcheng!
Mrs. Tan ordered the servants of the Tan family to watch the whole process. The people who had just been sent to the Tan family's villa had already returned. No one dared to delay after what had happened today. They followed the guards of the palace out and came back carrying a few boxes, with someone following behind them.
Seeing the person coming, Tan Fuyao's expression finally changed. The corpse in the corner was still there, and the blood on the ground began to dry up. It was obvious that they were trying to kill the chicken to scare the monkey!
After understanding the situation, Madam Tan nodded and walked to Shen Yu to report, "Princess, the courtyard that Tan Fuyao often goes to is on the outskirts of the city, which happens to be near the temple where the aunt had the accident. This person is the manager of that courtyard, but he refuses to confess anything..."
Shen Yu looked at the silent man opposite him and said calmly, "It's okay. It's all about colluding with foreign tribes. The end result is that the whole family will be executed. The evidence will not disappear. It makes no difference whether you say it or not..."
She pointed at the eight stewards of the palace and said with a puzzled look, "I think you really don't understand. Do you think we brought you back for interrogation? No, no, no! It's really not like that. The palace will only arrest people after there is solid evidence. Otherwise, do you think our palace guards have nothing to do?"
That’s right! All the guards straightened their backs!
Then she said, "You still dare to say that you are innocent? Ha! Just because your whole family's indentures are all in Prince Zhuo's mansion, you dare to collude with outsiders to betray your own master? People like you can be killed at any time by this concubine. Do you really think I will let you go for the sake of my so-called reputation? Are you overthinking? The difference between you is only the difference between a serious crime and a minor crime. You will die anyway... Besides, the people of Zhuo City are not blind. We can still distinguish between good and bad people. If someone really stands up to plead for traitors like you? Or question the actions of Prince Zhuo's mansion? Ha! We are guilty of the same crime! Anyway..."
She leaned against Prince Zhuo's keyboard, smiling maliciously and playfully, "Anyway, killing one person with nine clans is killing, and killing ninety people with nine clans is also killing... You want to throw your heads away, are you afraid that I will be lenient? I will arrange a lot of benefits for the people next. With so many fewer people to share the burden, the people should be happy, right? Tsk tsk tsk! I really don't understand what's wrong with your brains? You're stupid!"
Everyone present, whether they were kneeling, standing, sitting, or lying down... all couldn't help but gasp. The people in Prince Zhuo's Mansion only felt that the princess was domineering and majestic, while those outside Prince Zhuo's Mansion just wanted to kneel down and beg for mercy immediately!
The princess had no intention of playing along with them, she was just going to execute the whole family!! She even kept saying that the entire clan would be killed, which would involve hundreds or even thousands of lives in a matter of minutes. The princess said it as if it was a joke, but the point is, the prince still looked at her with a doting look on his face?
It was like you kill someone, I hand you the knife, which was completely different from the gentle and considerate style of the previous generation of Prince Zhuo and Princess Zhuo. They really regretted it. No one had ever said that this couple were crazy before! !
The manager's face turned pale and blue, and before he could recover from the shock, Qing Li arrived with a long group of people...
Because there were so many people, probably eighty or ninety, the people who had been surrounding the Tan Mansion were talking about it. This kind of drama has been staged frequently since the return of the prince and his family, and they were very excited.
Mrs. Tan also had a complex expression... She looked at the steward of the villa on the ground, as if she had seen him somewhere before.
Then she looked at Prince Zhuo and his wife who were so confident... She originally thought that the bargaining chips in her hand were enough to negotiate with them, but in the end, just when she had worked so hard to sort out the information, the guards of the palace sent people over?
What does this mean? It means that these people have always been on the list of the palace, and they are waiting for her to expose them!
Ever since she learned the truth about her marriage, she began to refuse to get involved in the Yun family's affairs.
I thought that the matter of Zhuocheng would be handed over to Yunhao, but I didn't expect that the person who would take over would be her daughter? Or did her daughter secretly plot against her cousin Yunhao to get this opportunity? Ha! She is as shameless as her sister, and will do anything to achieve her goal!
After that, she showed weakness while secretly collecting evidence of the Yun family, and she actually discovered a lot of things, even... she even had spies in Luocheng? Tan Fuyao was indeed capable, but she only found out that the person in Luocheng was a noble lady, and there were no more clues...
The noise in the yard was getting louder and louder. Mrs. Tan looked up and saw a large group of people being escorted in from outside. From the elderly in their seventies and eighties to children in arms, they were all terrified. After hundreds of people squeezed in, the huge garden of the Tan family immediately seemed crowded.
"Daddy..."
