484 Shot himself in the foot
Soon, Xiao Hanzheng brought the accusation paper out.
He then got someone to bring out a table and place a brush and ink on it.
Liang Yulin took the lead and walked over to sign his name, followed by Xi Rong and the others.
The commoners also swarmed over, but when they reached the table, they spontaneously lined up.
This was a habit that Shi Qingluo had deliberately taught everyone in the county town.
Whether it was to buy or collect things, they had to queue up.
One by one, they lined up to sign their names.
Xiao Hanzheng thanked everyone again and then let them go.
After the ink dried, Xiao Hanzheng folded the accusation paper and put it in the memorial that he had already written.
He handed it to Prince Yi and said, “I’ll have to trouble Your Highness to have it sent to the capital at top speed to His Majesty.”
Liang Yulin found that Xiao Hanzheng was to his liking. Since he had confirmed everyone’s nonsense just now, then he would send the accusation paper to the capital to complain about Prince Jin’s princess consort.
This way, his royal brother would be able to execute his arrangement for Prince Jin’s residence.
He took the accusation paper and patted Xiao Hanzheng with a smile. “Don’t worry, I’ll have someone send it to the capital as soon as possible.”
In front of Xiao Hanzheng’s family, he always referred to himself as “I” to express his closeness.
Xiao Hanzheng smiled. “Thank you, your Royal Highness!”
Liang Yulin waved his hand. “There’s no need to be so polite between us.”
We’ll be a family in the future.
Xiao Hanzheng remained silent.
In his mind, Prince Yi had always been a banished immortal far away, but now he was completely stained black by the mortal world.
He really didn’t expect Prince Yi to be like this in private.
He was black-bellied and thick-skinned.
On the other hand, Ruan Songling ran back to the courtyard she was staying and cried.
After Liang Mingmin had been bitten by the goose, plus the fact that the people in the county viewed her with disgust, she didn’t like to go out recently.
When she saw her own mother come back with red eyes, she looked like she had cried.
She immediately went up to him and asked with concern, “Imperial mother, who bullied you?”
Ruan Songling did not hide anything from her daughter. “Prince Yi, Xiao Hanzheng and his mother.”
Liang Mingmin was stunned. She obviously didn’t expect that her powerful mother would be bullied by Xiao Hanzheng and his mother.
Her face was full of anger. “Then get someone to kill them all, or bring that to Northern City and deal with them.”
Xiao Hanzheng did not know how to appreciate her kindness.
When she met him a few days ago, she had already put down her status and expressed her goodwill, but he was particularly cold to her.
He really refused a toast only to drink a forfeit.
Ruan Songling also wanted to arrest them. “The guards I brought were arrested by them instead. They even splashed dirty water on me.”
She really didn’t know what to do.
Ever since she had married Prince Jin, she had never had any troubles.
Whenever something happened, she would confidently instruct Prince Jin to handle it.
She only needed to be in power and do as she pleased.
This was the first time she had encountered something like this.
She would not let Prince Yi, Xiao Hanzheng, his mother, and those unruly people off.
Liang Mingmin was shocked again.
She didn’t expect those people to be so bold as to capture her mother’s personal guards.
“They’re too audacious, ” she said angrily. “I’ll write a letter to my father right now and ask him to send an army there to massacre Heyang County.”
She had long been disdainful of the peasants here.
Ruan Songling had originally wanted to send a message to Prince Jin.
It was just that before she came to Heyang County, after the argument between her and Prince Jin, he did not come to coax her.
This made her unwilling to bow down to him.
Now that her daughter wanted to write a letter, it was just right. “Alright, after you write the letter, get someone to send it back to Prince Jin’s residence as soon as possible.”
Now that the guards around her had been captured and locked up, it was not convenient for her to do anything.
Therefore, Ruan Songling and Liang Mingmin were more obedient in the following period of time.
Liang Mingmin even went to look for Zhuo Zheng a few times in private.
As the incident in Heyang County was not a small matter, Prince Jin’s people had to send a letter to the Northern City as fast as they could.
In just a few days, Prince Jin received the news.
Liang Mingyu had not even reached Heyang County yet.
After reading the letter, Liang Yujun’s face turned green with anger.
Although he had deliberately raised Ruan Songling to be arrogant, domineering, self-righteous, and brainless all these years because he could settle everything for her, he really didn’t expect Ruan Songling to be so stupid.
She approached Mdm Kong and was tricked.
He thought that she was just looking for Xiao Hanzheng’s family to make trouble and bully Mother Xiao and Shi Qingluo.
But now, the guards she brought with her had become Prince Yi’s assassins who wanted to kill Mother Xiao in public, which aroused the anger of the people.
Xiao Hanzheng was even more ruthless.
He actually confirmed this and asked everyone to sign and testify.
He then wrote an accusation paper and sent it to the capital.
If that was the case, what would his princess consort become?
Her princess consort was the mastermind behind the prince’s assassination, the audacious act of killing others in public, and she even colluded with bandits.
If this ready-made handle was sent to the capital, he didn’t need to guess to know that the emperor would definitely use this matter to his advantage.
Liang Yujun couldn’t help but pull out the sword hanging on the wall and randomly slash around as if he was venting his anger.
He had previously planned to prioritize his righteousness before his family and do Shi Qingluo and his husband a favor.
It was all part of his plan.
However, this matter had completely disrupted his plans.
He also had to prioritize his righteousness before his family, but this time, he was forced to do so.
Who asked his princess consort to expose her great weakness to them.
Ruan Songling was too stupid.
She didn’t think of a way to clear her name from Liang Yulin and Xiao Hanzheng and his mother.
Instead, she let her guards be arrested as assassins and even questioned Liang Yulin about what had happened in the past.
Did she really think that he, Prince Jin, could hide this truth from the public?
At this moment, Liang Yujun felt like he had shot himself in the foot.
He also regretted sending Ruan Songling to Heyang County.
Liang Mingmin and Ruan Songling were both stupid.
Wasn’t she usually very capable in Northern City?
How could she have been tricked so badly the moment she went to Heyang County?
He was really going to die of anger.
He also felt a little regretful.
How did he come up with such an idea to take revenge on Ruan Songling?
He should have dethroned her from the position of a princess consort earlier and thrown her to the backyard to fend for herself.
He had a terrible headache and couldn’t think of a good countermeasure.
He hurriedly called his tacticians over to discuss it.
On the same day, the emperor received a memorial and an accusation paper from Prince Yi.
After the emperor finished reading the memorial and the accusation paper, a smile that came from the bottom of his heart appeared on his face.
Ever since Xiao Hanzheng and his wife had gone to the northern border, his royal brother had made a lot of stupid moves and shot himself in the foot, which made him very happy.
He was even more certain that Xiao Hanzheng and his wife were his lucky stars.
Not long after, Prince Jin’s residence exposed another of their weaknesses.
He had just demoted Princess Zhen, and now it was Prince Jin’s princess consort’s turn.
He would like to see what Prince Jin would choose.
The next day, the emperor threw down the memorial and the accusation paper with a sullen face, which shocked the courtiers.
After they found out the contents of the letter, everyone had the same thought in their minds. Prince Jin’s princess consort was too stupid.
Those related to Prince Jin didn’t know what to do. They were even more worried.
Those siding with the emperor were extremely happy.
This weakness was exposed at the right time.
Therefore, they knelt down and asked the emperor to send someone to investigate it.
If the situation was true, Prince Jin’s princess consort must be severely punished, otherwise, it would ruin the reputation of the imperial family.
Moreover, Prince Jin’s princess consort’s way of doing things was too arrogant.
The emperor could only bitterly issue an imperial edict to criticize Prince Jin and ask him to take care of his family.
He also sent people to the northern border to investigate.
If the situation was true, he expressed his opinion that he would never cover up for Prince Jin’s princess consort and would deal with her as he should.
He even deliberately spread the news all over Daliang country.
