Rongguo Mansion, Lixiangyuan.

What happened to the Xue family affected the hearts of the entire Jia family.

In particular, Xue Pan and Aunt Xue were bedridden one after another, which made many people very nervous.

Not only Lin Daiyu, Shi Xiangyun and other girls came to Lixiangyuan to visit Aunt Xue early in the morning, even Jia Mu came in person.

When they learned about Xue Biao's situation, they all frowned. Things were far more complicated than they imagined.

However, seeing Aunt Xue was like a frightened bird, and the girls didn't show it, they just comforted her with gentle words.

However, before they could say a few words, Ji Yun brought a servant into the hall.

"Xiao Ye'er, what happened?" Bao Qin recognized that he was Xue Biao's servant.

Seeing the crowd, Xiao Ye'er hurriedly knelt down and cried out: "Old lady, madam, miss, please, please save Erye Tiao!"

All the girls were shocked, and Aunt Xue quickly asked, "What happened?"

"That dog official is clearly in collusion with the Dou family. With the backing of the fourth prince, they want to put the second master tad to death, and put this bad name on the second master tad!" Xiao Ye'er cried loudly.

The complexions of all the girls changed, and Aunt Xue, Xue Baochai and Xue Baoqin's complexions became even paler.

"Tell me, what happened?"

Xiao Ye'er quickly told what happened just now. When he heard that Mou Qiang was going to give Xue Biao a "big punishment", he couldn't suppress the fear in his heart, and hurried over to report the news.

A flash of determination flashed in Xue Baoqin's eyes when he heard the words, and he immediately walked out.

The girls stopped her and asked her whereabouts.

"I'm going to save my brother." She said with a pale face.

"Miss Qin, that yamen is not a place that ordinary women can go to. If you break in like this, let alone you can't save anyone, you might even get in yourself." Lin Daiyu quickly persuaded.

Shi Xiangyun also echoed: "Yes. Miss Qin, the Dou family is eager to find us, isn't it? If you go rashly, wouldn't you be playing into their hands?"

The rest of the girls also spoke out to persuade them.

Xue Baoqin's eyes were red, and she knew very well that if she trespassed in the courtroom, she would probably be punished, and her reputation would be ruined if she was punished.

However, she couldn't see her brother in distress, but she remained indifferent.

"Thank you sisters for your kindness. Baoqin appreciates it, but I can't abandon my brother." She looked around the crowd and was about to go out.

"Sister!" At this moment, Xue Baochai suddenly called out to stop her.

Xue Baoqin turned to look at her.

Xue Baochai looked into her eyes and said word by word:

"Brother Jue said that this matter will be handled by him, and I will not make trouble for him."

"But..." Xue Baoqin hesitated to speak, because Jia Jue was not mentioned at all in Xiao Ye'er's narration just now.

"I firmly believe that he will never slip up! Sister, trust him!" Xue Baochai looked at Xue Baoqin and said seriously.

Xue Baoqin was taken aback, she suddenly thought of the look in Jia Jue's eyes when he was talking to her last night, for some reason, a warm current rose in her heart.

She bit her lip, nodded slightly, and murmured:

"Brother Jue, Baoqin trusts you, so I will entrust you, brother."

……

Daxing County Government.

Just when Mou Qiang was about to torture Xue Biao, a clear and clear singing suddenly sounded outside the yamen:

"The Son of Heaven is serving you, Mr. Jia is here!"

Everyone was shocked when they heard the words.

Whether it was Mou Qiang, the fourth prince Zhao Ping, or the servants, Dou Ming and Xue Biao all looked towards the door.

In their eyes, an elegant figure walked into the hall with a handsome servant.

It was Jia Jue.

Seeing him, Mou Qiang was a little surprised. He glanced at Zhao Ping hesitantly, got up from his seat, walked down the steps, and saluted Jia Jue:

"See Ren Yi Hou."

Jia Jue smiled at him and nodded slightly: "Master Mou, you don't have to be polite."

"Hmph!" At this moment, a muffled hum came.

Jia Jue followed the prestige, but saw Zhao Ping sitting on the seat, looking at him proudly.

Jia Jue smiled lightly, and cupped his hands at him: "I have seen His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince!"

"Your Majesty Jia has such a great official authority. When he saw this prince, he didn't even worship him." Zhao Ping snorted coldly.

This was his intention to make things difficult for Jia Jue. In fact, ministers don't have to kneel down to salute the prince when they see the prince.

However, Zhao Ping proposed to ask Jia Jue to kneel under the eyes of so many people. If Jia Jue refused, it would be suspected of contempt for the royal family.

Jia Jue laughed when he heard the words, his right hand shook slightly, and only heard a "swish", a folding fan opened in front of him, and there were four large characters written on the fan:

A gentleman is like jade!

"It's inconvenient for me to salute, please Your Highness forgive me." He smiled at Zhao Ping.

Seeing this, Zhao Ping was full of depression, but he forgot that Jia Jue was still holding the imperial fan in his hand.

"What do you mean when you come to the county government office?" He asked angrily.

Jia Jue smiled and asked, "I don't know why Your Highness is here?"

Zhao Ping sneered: "I heard that in broad daylight, some people disregarded human life, so I came here to listen."

Jia Jue cupped his hands at him: "Your Highness is eager for justice, hates evil like hatred, and I admire you. If His Highness is sitting here, the truth will surely come to light, and the truth will be revealed to the world."

"That's natural." Zhao Ping snorted coldly, "I just don't know why you are here?"

Jia Jue said with a smile, "This minister is here to handle official business."

"It's nonsense, you are serving the emperor, what kind of official business do you have to handle in this county government office?" Zhao Ping scolded with a frown.

Jia Jue didn't speak, just looked at him with a smile on his face.

This made Zhao Ping confused and bewildered.

Mou Qiang at the side hastily explained to Zhao Ping:

"Your Highness doesn't know something. Mr. Jia is the emperor's servant. Your Majesty has something to say. The emperor's servant is in charge of 'raising some punishments and prisons'. He can intervene in all judicial and prison affairs in the world."

Zhao Ping's face suddenly sank: "That is to say, he wants to try the case?"

Jia Jue gently fanned the imperial fan. Although he didn't speak, the meaning was already obvious. He came to intervene in this case.

"How unreasonable!" Zhao Ping shouted angrily, "The Xue family is your Jia family's in-laws. You tried this case to deliberately cover up!"

Jia Jue still didn't speak, but the servant beside him smiled lightly and said:

"What you said is reasonable, but His Highness has nothing to do with the Dou family."

This sentence made many people snicker, but Zhao Ping's face darkened instantly.

Just as he was about to explode, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the boy holding the Xuanbing Sword in his arms.

He couldn't get angry immediately, he could only shout with hatred: "Use torture!"

Several yamen servants looked at Mou Qiang, saw that he had no objection, and hurriedly wanted to torture Xue Biao.

"Wait a minute." At this moment, Jia Jue suddenly stopped them.

Zhao Ping looked at him coldly: "Why, there are all the witnesses and material evidence, so there is no need for punishment?"

Jia Jue smiled at him: "Is there any evidence? I'm afraid it may not be true."
