Reborn to marry a playboy, the scumbag kneels down and calls me aunt

"I have heard some rumors."

Shen Xuanheng opened his folding fan and gently waved it over his chest, a cold light flashing in his eyes, "Originally, this prince did not believe it, but seeing that Lord Xu brought some masked assassins here to kill people and silence them, this prince is a little confused."

Shen Xuanheng looked at Xue Tao, "Little Tao, why don't you help me solve this puzzle?"

When Xue Tao heard this title, she was so nervous that her palms were sweating. It turned out that the Crown Prince had known his identity for a long time...but why didn't he reveal it and let her stay by the Crown Prince's wife's side?

What exactly do His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Pavilion Master Liang want to do?

At this moment Xue Tao suddenly had a ridiculous feeling, as if she was just a chess piece on the chessboard of these big shots. Where she landed and what the outcome would be were completely out of her control.

Xue Tao took a deep breath and looked at Xu Younian with cold eyes. No matter what, it was Xu Younian who forced her into this situation today.

Even if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince settles the matter later, she will drag Xu Younian down with her.

"Your Highness, it was Xu Younian who forced the Blood Robe Tower to rob and kill the Crown Prince's Consort. If Xue Tao refuses, the Minister of Justice will send people to destroy the Blood Robe Tower."

Shen Xuanheng's eyes gradually turned cold, and he put away his folding fan and tapped it on his palm, "Master Xu, I'm afraid you have to give this prince an explanation, right?"

Xu Younian laughed, his face unchanged, "Your Highness, this Blood Robe Tower owner is cunning by nature. Now she is desperate and is trying to alienate you and me. You wouldn't believe her lies, would you? Besides, I have always kept my distance from the Zhen'an Palace. Why did I kill the Crown Prince's Consort? Isn't this like an old man hanging himself because he is tired of living?"

"This is also what I am wondering about."

Xu Younian was relieved upon hearing this, and hurriedly said, "So I have no motive, and naturally will not do such a thing that would endanger others and myself. It would be better to execute Xue Tao immediately and avenge the Crown Prince's Consort!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Xuanheng burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, Xu Younian, you are indeed an old fox who has been in the officialdom for a long time. You are really good at speaking and arguing. If this prince did not have other witnesses, I might have been fooled by you."

Xu Younian's face darkened and his eyes turned cold.

"Oh? Does His Royal Highness have any other witnesses?"

Shen Xuanheng looked at Bai Zhu and nodded slightly. The latter laughed and kicked the big tree next to him, and a square wooden cage fell down. The ghost doctor Zhao Qiankun inside was knocked unconscious.

Seeing this person, Xu Younian's face became even uglier. How did Zhao Qiankun fall into Shen Xuanheng's hands?

Zhao Qiankun lay in the wooden cage like a shrimp, looking at Xu Younian with slanted eyes, and said with a smile: "Master Xu, I was caught by accident. I am really sorry. I have to expose someone's past in order to save my life."

Xu Younian snorted coldly and said with a flick of his sleeves, "Your Highness, who is this person? I don't even know him. Could it be that I have offended Your Highness somewhere? How dare you use this shady person to frame me?"

Shen Xuanheng's deep eyes condensed a trace of murderous intent, and he said lightly: "Xu Younian, this person lived in the prison of your Ministry of Justice for several days, killed several prisoners, not only was he not beheaded, but he left openly, okay? You say you don't know him, isn't it a bit ridiculous?"

"That's nonsense. It's not true at all."

Xu Younian was disdainful. As long as he refused to admit it, he would not be afraid even if the matter was reported to the emperor, because he had no motive to commit the crime, and he had connections in the court. By then, as long as he said a few words of help, the emperor would probably trust him as a pillar of the court rather than these sinful people in the world.

"It doesn't matter. I also think you won't admit it easily."

Shen Xuanheng had no intention of relying on the court laws to judge Xu Younian when he brought Xu Younian here today. The reason why he wasted so much time on him was to see if Xu Younian would plead guilty, and then force him to confess the reason for assassinating Su Xuqing.

However, this old guy has an extremely tough mouth. But no matter how tough his mouth is, can it be as hard as his bones?

"Kill all those who are in the way. Then we'll break Lord Xu's bones and interrogate him slowly."

Shen Xuanheng flicked his sleeves and took a half step back. Xu Younian's face suddenly changed color when he heard this, and he said sternly: "Your Highness, I am an official appointed by the court. How dare you attack me? When the emperor knows about this, he will definitely punish you severely!"

Hearing this, Shen Xuanheng sneered and took out a gold medal of immunity from death from his sleeve.

"This prince has spent a lot of money to buy a gold medal of immunity from death from Pavilion Master Liang. Even if this matter gets out and the emperor knows about it, it is enough to escape unscathed. So, Lord Xu, it's time to set off."

"Damn Liang Heng! He's trying to have it both ways!"

Xu Younian cursed angrily and shouted, "Come on, kill them!"

At this moment, Xu Younian knew that today's matter could not be resolved peacefully. He had to kill the Prince of Zhennan to survive! So what if he was a grandmaster? Wouldn't so many people be able to kill him?

"Whoever can kill these two men will receive a reward of 10,000 taels!"

As soon as Xu Younian said this, the killers' eyes suddenly became hot.

"kill!"

The black-clad killers swarmed forward, and the flashing of swords and sabers was dizzying.

"How dare a mere ant shake a tree!"

Bai Shu's internal strength protected his body and he was not afraid of swords and weapons. He rushed into the crowd and beat them vigorously, breaking bones and causing them to vomit blood. In just a moment, more than half of the twenty killers were killed.

The remaining killers were so frightened that their movements became hesitant. How the hell were they going to fight?

"Hurry up! Hurry up! Anyone who kills the Grandmaster will be rewarded with a reward of 100,000!"

Xu Younian screamed wildly with a look of shock in his eyes, and the killer's mind, which had just become clear, became crazy again.

"Come together! No one can escape from the Grand Master!"

"Well done!"

Bai Zhu's internal energy flowed throughout his body, and his robes rustled.

He threw a punch, causing a dent in one person's skull, and threw another punch, causing a person's sternum to break. During this time, someone wanted to bypass Bai Zhu and launch a sneak attack on Shen Xuanheng, but a stone kicked away by Bai Zhu's toes pierced his forehead.

"Haha, is that all you can do?"

Bai Zhu twisted the neck of the last killer and looked at Xu Younian with cold eyes.

Xu Younian was sweating profusely. He had heard of the great master's reputation a long time ago. It was said that he could fight a hundred people alone. However, he just thought it was just the boasting of the people in the martial arts world. Human beings are mortals, it is not easy to fight ten people alone, let alone a hundred people alone.

But what I saw with my own eyes today was so thrilling.

Bai Zhu walked towards Xu Younian slowly, and the latter took half a step back, terrified.

"You, you can't lay a hand on me. I am a second-rank official in the imperial court, the Minister of Punishment, who was personally pardoned and appointed by the emperor. If you lay a hand on me, you will be guilty of a capital crime."

"Fuck you."

Bai Zhu slapped Xu Younian in the face. He only used less than 10% of his strength, but Xu Younian flew more than two meters away and hit the rock heavily.
