After Breaking Off My Marriage, I Became A Powerful Minister’s Treasure

482 One had to strike first to gain the upper hand

As soon as Liang Yulin finished speaking, a dozen or so highly skilled secret guards appeared.

In just a few moments, they subdued all the people Ruan Songling had brought along.

Ruan Songling’s eyes widened and he looked at him in disbelief.

“Prince Yi, what do you mean by this?

“These are my guards. Did your people catch the wrong person?”

She pointed at the group of bailiffs. “They should be arrested.”

Shouldn’t he be on her side?

Liang Yulin remained silent.

This woman’s brain is indeed sick. No wonder she can be a couple with Liang Yujun.

“I didn’t arrest the wrong people,” he said coldly.

“I found out that these people were the assassins who tried to kill me outside the county, so I have to arrest them all for interrogation.”

Previously, when he saw Kong Yuelan and Xiao Hanzheng link these guards with bandits, he had an idea.

From now on, these people were the ones who would ambush and assassinate him.

They were all people of the Prince Jin’s residence anyway, so there wasn’t much difference.

Ruan Songling’s disbelief deepened. “How is that possible? Prince Yi, are you mistaken? ”

“Are you questioning the prince?” Liang Yulin asked coldly, raising an eyebrow.

“Can’t I tell who tried to assassinate me?”

Ruan Songling remained silent.

He had actually said that his guards were ambushers. This was too much.

She was furious. “Prince Yi, I know you want to protect Xiao Hanzheng and his mother, but you can’t accuse my people.”

How could he do this to her?

“They are the ones who tried to assassinate me, ” Liang Yulin said coldly. “There’s no point in denying it.

“I didn’t expect that the ones who tried to assassinate me would be the guards from Prince Jin’s residence.

“Prince Jin’s princess consort, you’re even more arrogant and despotic. You even brought these assassins into the county town and came to the county yamen to show off your ruthlessness. You wanted to kill Mdm Kong in public.

“Was it because she saved me that you suspected that she had seen the killer’s face, so you wanted to kill her to silence her?”

After hearing what he said, Mother Xiao also reacted quickly and said, “No wonder Prince Jin’s princess consort asked me what I saw when I just entered the room. It turns out that she wanted to kill me for this reason.”

She now found Prince Yi a lot more pleasing to the eye.

This excuse was not bad, it could completely explain it.

As expected, when the people present heard this, they looked at Ruan Songling with a strange gaze.

They knew that even if Prince Jin’s princess consort wanted to settle the score for her daughter, she should have killed Madam.

Why did she come here to kill the old Madam?

It turned out that she was afraid that old Madam would recognize the person who had assassinated Prince Yi.

Xiao Hanzheng and Liang Yulin deliberately didn’t hide the news that Prince Yi had been ambushed and assassinated at the county yamen and spread it out.

They were looking for an opportunity to set Prince Jin up.

He didn’t expect that Prince Jin’s princess consort would come to him on her own initiative today, so Prince Yi was particularly witty and talked nonsense with a serious face.

“Oh my God, so it’s because of this that you want to kill the old Madam.”

“That makes sense. Otherwise, why would Prince Jin’s princess consort want to kill the old Madam when she doesn’t even know her?”

“Assassinating a prince is a serious crime. You are too bold, princess consort.”

“Who knows who gave her the orders?”

Because Prince Yi and Xiao Hanzheng were here, the people were free to speak.

“Put all these assassins who tried to assassinate Prince Yi into the prison and interrogate them,” Xiao Hanzheng said with a dark face.

The bailiffs all rubbed their fists and wiped their palms as they stepped forward.

Prince Yi’s men first looked at their master.

Seeing him nod, they handed the people that they had captured over to the bailiffs.

“No, we didn’t assassinate Prince Yi.”

“We’re innocent.”

“We are not assassins. We are the princess’ personal guards.”

The guards, who had been extremely arrogant before, all changed their expressions and immediately cried out for injustice.

Xi Rui and the others also came to watch the show.

Xi Rui snorted. “Who would take the initiative to say they’re assassins? I can tell that you’re guilty from your looks.”

The guards uttered under their breath, how were they guilty consciences? They were wronged!

“That’s right, ” Xi Rong added.

“My people saw them sneakily colluding with the bandits outside.

“I didn’t think that they would be so bold as to assassinate a prince.”

She looked at Ruan Songling and asked, “Prince Jin’s princess consort, did my youngest royal uncle kill your entire family or did he offend you? You actually want to kill him.”

Prince Jin had colluded with the Ge Kingdom and killed her parents, causing her entire Xi family to be exterminated.

She hated anyone related to Prince Jin.

She also hated this arrogant and domineering Prince Jin’s princess consort.

Mother Xiao was someone her good friend, Shi Qingluo, was protecting.

Naturally, she had to protect her as well.

Since Prince Yi had taken the lead to pour dirty water on her, she didn’t mind pouring more and ruining Princess Jin’s reputation in the whole of Daliang.

If everyone knew that the princess consort and her legitimate daughter were so cruel and vicious, how good would Prince Jin be?

Ever since Ruan Songling had married into Prince Jin’s residence, she had never been treated like this.

She was so angry that her whole body trembled. Her eyes were like daggers as she looked at Xi Rong. “You’re slandering me.”

Xi Rong raised her eyebrows. “I’m a Marquis. Why would I need to slander others?”

She turned to the group of female soldiers and asked, “Did you see that these guards are in cahoots with the bandits outside the town?”

They all nodded. “Yes, we saw it.”

“See, there are eye witnesses.”

“Did you all see the guards commit murder and want to silence them?” she asked the people present.

Luoluo had said that one had to strike first to gain the upper hand.

Therefore, she helped Prince Jin’s princess consort to confirm that she had ordered someone to commit murder and silence her.

“We saw it, we all saw it, ” the crowd immediately replied, “we can be witnesses.”

Someone patted his chest with a frightened look and said with lingering fear, “If it wasn’t for Mr Xiao’s quick arrival, these guards would have killed us as well.”

“Yes, yes. My child was so scared that he cried just now.”

“I was also scared.”

“Prince Jin’s princess consort is too brutal. She’s killing innocents.”

The commoners were also extremely disgusted with the princess consort, so they all stood out to testify.

This way, she would not be able to kill the old Madam or bully Madam in the future.

Xi Rong looked at Ruan Songling. “Prince Jin’s princess consort, a few of them might be lying, but it’s impossible for the hundreds of people here to all accuse you, right?”

Ruan Songling was furious. I was wronged to begin with.

She coldly swept her gaze over the people present. “You unruly people, how dare you falsely accuse me. Do all of you want to be thrown into prison? ”

Xi Rong sneered. “This is not Northern City. This is Heyang County.

“You’re just a princess consort.

“Where did you get the power to throw all the innocent people into jail?”

She snorted again. “And you even threatened the commoners in front of His Highness and me. You’re simply insolent.”

The commoners were not afraid of Prince Jin’s princess consort.

After all, there were the prince, the Marquis, the grandnephew of the empress Dowager, and their county magistrate.

“Yes, we’re not afraid.”

“If Prince Jin’s princess consort throws us into prison without distinguishing between right and wrong, our families will go to the capital and ask the emperor to seek justice.”

“Princess consort, are you trying to kill us, who are the witnesses?”

Xiao Hanzheng’s men deliberately said the last sentence.
