The Village Girl Who Jinxes Her Husband Is Filthy Rich

Chapter 1860: Interrogation

The Crown Prince asked sternly,” Who is the mastermind behind all of you?”

According to what they said, the mastermind behind the scenes must have been a prince or a concubine in the palace.

After hearing the Crown Prince’s question, Boss Hu was stunned at first before he continued,” Commoner…I don’t know.”

“What?” The Crown Prince narrowed his eyes and continued to ask with some doubt,” You don’t know who that noble is and don’t know his true identity. How can you believe his words and betray your conscience, betraying Princess Gu?”

Boss Hu and the others ‘expressions froze. Then, they said,” Your Highness, it was Second Brother who said that the noble took out a token and immediately confirmed the noble’s identity. That’s why he said that he believed him!”

The Crown Prince frowned slightly and asked again,” You said that he saw that person’s token? What token?”

Boss Hu said,” It’s a jade pendant!” At this point, he added,” It’s a jade pendant carved with dragon patterns!”

This kind of jade pendant engraved with dragon patterns was not qualified to be used by anyone other than the princes and grandsons of the imperial palace.

However, this kind of dragon pattern jade pendant represented one’s identity, and each dragon pattern was different.

Boss Hu shook his head and said, “I… I don’t know. I can’t tell whose jade pendant it is.”

Hearing that Boss Hu really didn’t know, the crown prince frowned and looked at Lin Yuelan.

Lin Yuelan nodded slightly. Then, she stood up and said,” Then, I’ll wake Second Brother Hu up and continue interrogating him!”

Although the five Hu brothers had realised their mistakes, she would not forgive them.

In the past, she could make their lives better and better. Now, she could also beat them back to their original state.

Didn’t they say that they suffered for her and worked like cows and horses?

She wanted to see how good their lives would be if they no longer worked for her.

They had betrayed her. Seeing that they had turned back in time, she would not take their lives now. She only wanted them to return to the past!

It is easy to go from simplicity to extravagance but difficult to go from extravagance to simplicity!

All these years, they had been living a luxurious life with her, indulging in luxurious clothes and having a large number of wives and concubines.

Therefore, they were used to such a life. Could they still bear the bitter life of facing the yellow soil and eating chaff and vegetables?

Also, in the past, when people hired them to work, they could still live a better life than ordinary people with their skills. However, after offending her, the princess of the country, who would dare to ask them to build a house?

Asking them to build a house was equivalent to offending her, the princess of the country. In the entire country, other than the emperor, who else had the guts to offend her?

Therefore, hmph hmph, the days waiting for them in the future would only get better and better.

Lin Yuelan sneered. She would not be magnanimous towards the five Hu brothers who had betrayed her. She would not pity them either.

However, she needed Second Brother Hu as a witness.

Lin Yuelan stood up and walked to Boss Hu and the others. Her fierce aura was like a thousand-pound cauldron, making the five brothers feel a weight on their backs. They panicked and felt nervous and uneasy. This feeling was something that they had never felt before.

Boss Hu stammered, “Please… May I ask the… Princess, you… What are you doing?”

Lin Yuelan chuckled and said,” Haha, Boss Hu, why didn’t I notice that you have a stutter before?”

However, she did not wait for Boss Hu to answer. Instead, she changed the topic and said sharply,” Didn’t Second Boss Hu faint? However, as such an important party and witness in this case, how could he faint? Therefore, as a doctor, this princess naturally has the responsibility to wake him up!”

After saying that, she took a pin from the chest of the wedding dress and held it in her hand.

When Boss Hu saw Lin Yuelan’s actions, he was very worried that Lin Yuelan would harm Second Brother Hu.

No matter how wrong Second Brother Hu was, he was still their brother.

Moreover, if they were to rise or fall together, they would rise or fall together. The five brothers’ fates were linked.

Boss Hu stuttered again, “You… What are you doing?”

After saying that, he stood in front of Second Brother Hu.

Lin Yuelan looked at Boss Hu with a faint smile and said,” Why are you so nervous? Didn’t this princess just say that this princess only wanted to wake Second Brother Hu up!”

After saying that, her face darkened. She flicked her palm, and the pin flew out, piercing into Second Bro Hu’s body.

A moment later, Second Brother Hu slowly opened his eyes. His gaze was blank and dull.

Lin Yuelan retracted her hand, and the pin flew from Second Brother Hu’s body back into her hand.

Lin Yuelan flung her clothes and sat back down.

“Second brother!” Third Brother Hu and the others were surprised to see Second Brother Hu wake up.

Second Brother Hu looked at Third Brother Hu and the others in front of him and said with a blank expression,” Third Brother, Fourth Brother, what’s wrong with me?”

Third Brother Hu said,” Second Brother, you suddenly fainted just now. Oh, how are you feeling now? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?”

Second Brother Hu sat up, stretched out his hand, and said,” No!”

At this moment, the Crown Prince picked up the gavel and slapped it heavily. He shouted sternly,

“Second Brother Hu, who is the person who instructed you to sue the princess of Guguo? Hurry up and say it!”

Second Brother Hu’s expression was still blank, not understanding what the Crown Prince meant.

Boss Hu immediately reminded Second Brother Hu.

At this point, it was useless for Second Brother Hu to quibble.

Moreover, he had already found his conscience after being reminded and persuaded by his brothers.

Second Brother Hu kowtowed and said,” Your Highness, I only know that the person took out a piece of jade with a dragon pattern. I just don’t know who the person is!”

The Crown Prince frowned.” You don’t know!”

Then, he asked,” Do you remember what the jade pendant looks like?”

Second Brother Hu thought for a moment and said,” I remember! The carving on the jade pendant is a nine-clawed dragon’s body, and its eyes are red…” Second Brother Hu remembered the appearance of the jade pendant he had seen before.

However, the more Second Brother Hu spoke, the more surprised the others were.

That was because only one person could possess that jade pendant, and that person was the current Emperor!

However, the more he listened to Second Brother Hu, the more the Crown Prince frowned. He asked sternly,” Are you sure you remember correctly? It’s a nine-clawed dragon with red eyes…”

Second Brother Hu said,” Your Highness, I definitely remember it correctly!”

The Crown Prince slapped the gavel again. His face darkened as he shouted in a dignified manner,” Second Elder Hu, do you know who owns the jade pendant you described?”

Second Brother Hu asked doubtfully,” Isn’t it a noble from the palace?”

The Crown Prince sneered and immediately said,” If that piece of jade is real, then it is indeed owned by a noble in the palace. Because that jade pendant belongs to Imperial Father!”

As soon as the Crown Prince finished speaking, there was an uproar outside!

This… What was going on?
