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

495 Or you don’t dare to admit it?

He hurriedly got up and put on his clothes.

The more Liang Yujun thought about it, the angrier he became.

“Go wake the princess consort and the princess up.”

Why did he have to wake up in the middle of the night to clean up the mess, while those two idiots could still sleep in peace?

The personal attendants saw that His Highness was angry and nodded. “Yes!”

They actually didn’t like the princess consort and Ordinary County Princess very much.

The two of them acted like they were their masters and ordered them around like dogs.

Even the prince wasn’t like this.

It was only because the prince doted on the two of them that they had endured it.

Seeing that the prince was angry and they felt that the princess consort and her daughter wouldn’t have a good ending, they couldn’t help but gloat in their hearts.

After all, they all hoped to have matriarchs who respected others, not this kind of vicious, arrogant madams who liked to exploit other people’s weaknesses.

Ruan Songling was woken up by the maidservant.

She got up in her middle clothes and gave her two slaps.

“If there’s nothing important, I will tear you apart.”

She was sleeping soundly and didn’t expect to be woken up. She even had the intention to kill.

The maidservant knew that the princess consort had a morning temper and immediately knelt down after being hit. “Princess Consort, it was His Highness who asked me to wake you up.

“His Highness wants you to get dressed and go to the main hall to see him.”

Ruan Songling was stunned and confused. “Why did he ask me to go over? ”

The maidservant shook her head. “I don’t know.”

Ruan Songling’s mind turned. “Had Xiao Hanzheng’s family been burned to death?”

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that it might be so. So, with the help of her maidservants, she put on her clothes and washed up, then walked towards the main hall.

On the other hand, a similar scene was playing out in Liang Mingmin’s room.

Liang Yujun was the first to arrive at the main hall.

Not long after he sat down, he heard a lot of noise outside.

Soon, the guards came to report that Xiao Hanzheng, his wife, and those from Heyang County had requested to see him.

Liang Yujun had no choice but to have his personal guards bring them in.

There were more than a thousand people who followed them, and all of them wouldn’t be able to enter the main hall, so they sent a dozen people as representatives, while the others stood at the door and in the courtyard to listen.

After Xiao Hanzheng and Shi Qingluo entered the main hall, they were surprised to see Prince Jin, as if they did not expect him to be there.

They greeted, “Greetings, Your Highness!”

Liang Yujun did not believe that the two of them did not know that he had come.

However, he didn’t show it on his face.

Instead, he put on a respectful expression and said, “Rise, you two!

“Mr Xiao, it’s already so late. Why did you suddenly come to find me?” He pretended not to know.

“Your Highness,” Xiao Hanzheng said honestly, “The princess consort sent her maidservant to set fire to the backyard of the county government office. She wants to burn our family to death.

“That maidservant arrogantly said that it was the princess consort and Ordinary County Princess who instructed her to set fire to kill us.

“That’s why I’ve brought her here now. I want to confront the princess consort.”

How could Liang Yujun not know that this was Xiao Hanzheng and his wife trying to confirm the fact that Ruan Songling had sent her people to commit arson and murder?

He was furious mainly because of Ruan Songling and her daughter.

They were completely dragging him down.

This time, he had already thought about how to deal with Xiao Hanzheng and his wife.

Even if he sacrificed Ruan Songling and her daughter, he would still have the upper hand.

But now, what upper hand did he have?

If he didn’t deal with this matter properly, his reputation would be completely ruined by that pair of mother and daughter.

He revealed a shocked expression. “What? There’s such a thing?”

He then ordered his men, “Go and call the princess consort and the princess over.”

“Bring that maidservant here,” Xiao Hanzheng said to the people behind him.

Soon, the maidservant was the first to be brought in.

Liang Yujun also recognized her. She was Ruan Songling’s first-ranked servant girl who had been in Prince Jin’s residence for quite some time, so the possibility of her being bribed was not very high.

Moreover, he did not suspect that the servant girl had been bribed.

Who asked Ruan Songling to have a bad record previously.

As soon as the maidservant entered the room, she immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Prince Jin.

Liang Yulin didn’t let her get up, but asked coldly, “You said that the princess consort asked you to set fire to Mr Xiao’s family?”

If this happened in the past, the maidservant would definitely not dare to say anything.

But now, her hatred gave her the courage to look up and shrank her neck. “Yes. They’re just some lowly commoners, so it’s fine if they’re burned. Your Highness, please don’t blame the princess consort.”

Prince Jin was speechless.

Not only were Ruan Songling and her daughter idiots, but the servant girl beside them was also an idiot.

“Do you have any evidence that the princess consort ordered you to set the fire?” Liang Yujun asked.

The maidservant thought for a moment and took out a seal. “This was given to me by the princess consort. She said that as long as this matter was settled, she would let me take this seal to the bank in Northern City to withdraw five thousand taels of silver. Then, she would let me bring my family along and leave Northern City.”

They fabricated this matter, and the seal was also secretly handed to her a day ago.

She didn’t expect Mr Xiao to be so powerful that he could even get the bank seal that the princess consort usually carried.

Prince Jin was almost angered to death. Ruan Songling, that idiot, was too brainless.

Even if she wanted to bribe a servant girl to set the fire, she could just give her money after the matter was over.

She actually gave her personal bank seal to her to exchange for silver.

Following that, someone presented the seal.

Liang Yujun examined it carefully and confirmed that it was indeed the princess consort’s.

The reason he had thought of earlier wouldn’t be useful anymore.

Just as he was thinking about how to mitigate the situation, Ruan Songling walked in with Liang Mingmin.

When they saw Xiao Hanzheng and Shi Qingluo standing in the main hall, the two of them were surprised.

They didn’t die?

When they came over and saw so many lowly commoners surrounding them, they thought that Xiao Hanzheng and his wife had been burned to death, so these people came to ask for an explanation.

They were originally happy that the scourge, Shi Qingluo, was probably dead.

Who would have thought that not only were the two of them not dead, but they perfectly fine in front of them.

Shi Qingluo looked at the two of them and raised his brows, “When you two saw our shocked faces, were you wondering why we didn’t die?”

This question was too sudden.

Ruan Songling didn’t reply, but Liang Mingmin glared at the servant girl kneeling on the ground. “Useless brat.”

Because Prince Jin had brought his personal guards here, Liang Mingmin felt that she had nothing to fear and had the confidence to be arrogant.

“She is indeed useless for not being able to burn my family to death,” Shi Qingluo replied immediately.

This was to prove that Liang Mingmin had sent someone to set the fire, but it didn’t succeed.

Only then did she feel that her maidservant was useless.

“But, princess, shouldn’t you give us an explanation?”

Liang Mingmin sneered, “What explanation? Have y’all been burned to death? I don’t think so.”

Shi Qingluo looked at her. “So you’re admitting that you and your mother sent a servant girl to set fire?

“Or you don’t dare to admit it??”

This was a psychological hint that it doesn’t matter if you don’t admit it. Anyway, your mother’s maidservant had given in.

She wanted to provoke Liang Mingmin into admitting it in public.

“Save me, princess!” The maidservant immediately cried.

Liang Mingmin raised her eyebrows. “What do I not dare to admit?

“So what if we sent her here? All of you aren’t burnt to death, so why are you making a commotion here?”

Their maidservant was really trash.

Not only did she not succeed in getting caught, but she actually confessed everything.

Liang Yujun, who couldn’t stop her in time, felt an impulse to stuff his daughter into her mother’s womb to be remade.
