Side Story, Hu Yulin Jie 13
Hu Yu shed tears of pain.” Yesterday, my sister returned home. Both of them could not see anyone. 1 was concerned and went to visit them. 1 found out that even the best doctor was unable to do anything. Therefore, I had no other choice but to pretend to be seriously ill and ask the imperial doctor in the palace. However, just now, the imperial doctor came and saw that there was no way…”
“I have no one to rely on and can’t protect my sister. I’m afraid that I can only swallow this grievance and feel guilty towards my late husband and sister. Fortunately, Your Highness the Crown Prince is a righteous person and deeply hates this kind of behavior. This made me feel ashamed. 1 suddenly realized that if 1 let my late husband and sister swallow this grievance, 1 would be harming people and condoning others to do evil. With Your Highness the Crown Prince’s support, I believe that there is justice in this world, so I risked my life to come here. Even if I have to give up this life, I will seek justice for my late husband and sister. 1 hope you’ll understand.”
Hu Yu’s every word was full of brilliance, deeply detesting and criticizing such a vile act, and also expressing his determination to pursue the matter to the end.
At the same time, he also dragged the Crown Prince down with him.
This was the Crown Prince’s support for her. She had originally planned to silently bear the grievances, but it was the righteous Crown Prince who encouraged her, giving her the courage and determination to seek justice. After hearing this, Lord Lian subconsciously looked at Li Yi, but Li Yi was wearing a tall hat, so no one could tell his expression.
Li Yi’s heart was completely stumped. How would he know that she was so talkative?
If he knew what she was thinking, why would he let her come?
Li Yi was extremely frustrated, but he saw Beauty Lian’s face turn pale. She looked up at him with tears in her eyes. Her voice was so weak that it was as if she was about to die at any moment.
Li Yi only felt his heart ache. What she did was not wrong in the first place. The fault was that the prime minister did not teach her daughter well. The prime minister’s wife did not teach her daughter well and gave birth to such a vicious daughter who harmed people. Li Yi nodded and said,”Yes.”
After saying that, Li Yi regretted it. He actually wanted to turn this matter into a small matter, but his three views followed his five senses, and his brain was a little behind.
She was a beauty who was beaten until she was bloody, but he didn’t feel embarrassed at all.
Just by looking at her every move, the tears in her eyes, and the way she looked at him, he wanted to satisfy all her requests.
If he had known earlier that Chu Guanyu was so seductive, why would he let her marry some general? He would not let go of such a woman. Her every move would make people’s hearts follow her.
The prime minister was really guilty in this matter. He was the future heir apparent, so no one could resist him. Li Yi took a deep breath and said,” This matter must be investigated thoroughly. We can’t let this evil wind harm innocent people. A woman’s appearance is so important. Destroying it is equivalent to killing someone. Not to mention the prime minister’s daughter, even the noble princess can’t do whatever she wants.”
Minister Lian looked at this. Since the Crown Prince had already said so, what else did he have to hesitate about? He had to uphold justice for the General’s wife.
Moreover, the General’s wife was sounding the Drum of Vindication. This case would be sent to the palace to wait for the Emperor to convict her.
She was a weak woman who had been beaten up. It was normal for her to seek justice and find out the truth.
Minister Lian’s righteousness exploded.” General’s wife, don’t worry. I’ll definitely file a case. I’ll give you justice within three days.”
Hu Yu thanked him gratefully.
After coming out of the Ministry of War, Li Yi’s subordinates rushed over and whispered a few words in Li Yi’s ear. Li Yi immediately frowned and subconsciously glanced at Hu Yu.
Hu Yu’s face was pale. She had been carried and had already filed a complaint. Now, she just had to wait for the results. When the trial began, she would confront the Prime Minister’s family in the court.
As for the Crown Prince, he was done using him.
Hu Yu said weakly,” Thank you, Your Highness. Your Highness is a good person. After I get justice for my two sisters, I will definitely bring them to thank you personally. Your Highness, if you have something urgent to attend to, you should go quickly. They will send me back to the general’s residence.”
Li Yi’s gaze was deep, but in the end, he nodded.” Go back and rest well. In the future, you can come to the Crown Prince’s residence often to befriend the Crown Princess Consort. This way, no one will dare to bully you.”
Li Yi wanted to go to the palace to confirm if the news was true, so he quickly got on his horse and left.
The people from the Ministry of War also sent Hu Yu back to the General’s Estate.
Ouyang Mingyue and Ouyang Mingzhu’s faces turned pale from fright. They threw themselves at Hu Yu and cried,”Eldest sister-in-law, Eldest sister-in-law!”
Hu Yu hugged the two of them and comforted them.” Don’t cry, don’t cry. We’ll get it back with interest.”
She, the little fox, had never been at a disadvantage. Moreover, she did not feel any pain. The wound on her skin would heal. She had only used a little trick. It looked like there was a lot of blood, but in fact, the wound was not that serious.
Ouyang Mingyue and Ouyang Mingzhu cried until their eyes were swollen. Their eyes were filled with worry and self-blame.
Hu Yu looked at the two innocent and pitiful little girls. She was afraid that they had long forgotten how the original body had treated them coldly. After eating the candy, they had forgotten the bitterness.
She was too weak. How could she be strong?
Therefore, she could only be a green tea girl. Only by being weak could she make people want to protect her. As long as she learned this, her life would not be too bad.
Hu Yu looked at Ouyang Mingzhu’s and Ouyang Mingyue’s faces. They were pitch-black and scab like wounds.
However, the two of them did not seem to care. Instead, they were concerned about her. Hu Yu felt a little helpless.” Aren’t you worried that Eldest Sister-in-law will harm you?” What if this face is really ruined?”
“We believe in Eldest Sister-in-law. Whatever she does is for my own good.” Ouyang Mingzhu shook her head with tears in her eyes.
Hu Yu smiled.” Don’t worry. There won’t be any scars or marks. However, a few layers of skin will peel off. It won’t hurt or itch. It’ll just look scary, but if anyone asks, just say that it hurts and itches, understand?”
The two of them nodded, indicating that they would listen to Hu Yu’s instructions.
Hu Yu pinched their cheeks. They were really cute.
Three days was very fast.
After Minister Lian sent Hu Yu and Li Yi away, he immediately went to the Academy to bring Zhou Qianqian back for interrogation. What a joke. Even the Crown Prince had ordered a thorough investigation.
Zhou Qianqian was taken away. She had no face left. She struggled and kicked a few constables. She even specifically picked the most vulnerable part of the man to kick. However, she was still caught in the end. She struggled and shouted,” Are you guys blind? Do you know who I am? How dare you arrest me?”
Minister Lian looked at Zhou Qianqian and said coldly,”Miss Zhou, you stained Ouyang Mingzhu and Ouyang Mingyue’s faces with poisonous ink, causing them to be disfigured. Do you know your crime?” The General’s wife is beating the drum to voice her grievances. His Highness the Crown Prince has ordered a thorough investigation, yet you still kicked my subordinate. Your crime is even greater!”
Zhou Qianqian’s mind went blank. Her expression changed.” How could 1 be disfigured? Those two bumpkins framed me.”
“Miss Zhou, you admit that you stained their faces with poisonous ink?” Minister Lian frowned.
Zhou Qianqian was speechless. She realized that she couldn’t say that. She didn’t answer and shouted,” 1 want to see my parents. 1 want to go home. If you have anything to say, tell my parents. Let go of me now..”
