Quick Wear: The Demon Lord blew up the tomb at the beginning

Two or three hours had passed since Wei Changche arrived at the Princess's Mansion.

The sky outside gradually darkened. The clouds were burned red by the setting sun. The breeze blew lightly through the fallen leaves in the yard, making a rustling sound.

Dozens of officials were standing in the open space outside the gate of the princess's mansion. They were either looking inside the door or talking with their colleagues, with different facial expressions.

The resurrection of the dead, the murder of the princess, Xie Lang's attitude...

They appeared here, firstly because of the news of the eldest princess' resurrection, and secondly because of the major action that took place in the Ministry of Justice. Some officials were directly arrested. They were in a panic, and some of them came here to inquire about the news without even taking off their official robes after leaving their posts.

Xie Lang had foreseen this and had them turned away. Seeing this, some officials handed in their letters and left, while some refused to leave and insisted on meeting Xie Lang.

This is what Wei Changche saw when he came out.

"I will see you, Your Majesty."

When they saw Wei Changche, the crowd suddenly became quiet, stopped all actions, and bowed in the direction of Wei Changche.

Some people turned pale, as they never expected the emperor to be here.

"Why are you all gathering here and making noise? The Princess's Mansion is not a market. You cannot act so recklessly here."

As expected, Wei Changche started to curse as soon as he opened his mouth. These ministers were simply outrageous, blocking the door. Not only did they block the way, but they were also unsightly.

The key is that it blocked his way back to the palace.

After being scolded by Wei Changche, the ministers lowered their heads one after another.

It was indeed impolite for them to gather here. If it was someone else's mansion, it would be fine, but this was the eldest princess's mansion.

Gathering here is meant to threaten the eldest princess to come out to meet them.

One of the ministers, seeing this, stepped forward and bowed to Wei Changche.

"Your Majesty, please allow me to report that the fact that the princess has been resurrected is unprecedented in history, and it is also unprecedented for a minister to murder a princess. I am so shocked that I came to see the princess, and I dare not have any presumptuous intentions."

As soon as he spoke, others followed suit.

An official from the Ministry of Rites also came forward to explain.

"Your Majesty, the princess has returned from the dead. This is God's blessing on our Great Wei. We are here to congratulate the princess. We have absolutely no intention of disrespect."

"..."

The ministers began to make excuses, and the reasons for their arguments revolved around the resurrection of the eldest princess. They felt that the eldest princess crawled out of the grave because it was God's will, and they came to congratulate the Great Wei and the eldest princess.

Some ministers believed that the eldest princess was a god, and that she came back to the mortal world to seek justice for her daughter when she learned that her daughter in the mortal world was murdered by Marquis Cheng'en. They said that they wanted to severely punish Marquis Cheng'en, as only in this way could they appease the wrath of heaven.

Wei Changche was speechless when he heard these words, but fortunately they didn't mean it.

The minister standing here is not an important official and does not know the whole story. He does not need to bother with these officials.

"The matter of my minister plotting to murder the princess will be thoroughly investigated by the Prime Minister and the three courts, and the court will make a fair judgment tomorrow."

"As for you, if I want to see you, I will. If you don't want to see me, what's the point of blocking me here? Why don't you leave quickly?"

The ministers looked at each other, but in the end they all saluted in unison: "We obey your order."

At this time, a carriage came over, Wei Changche got on the carriage and went to the palace.

The security in the capital was good, and it was not uncommon for the emperor to leave the palace in disguise, so the ministers were not very surprised to see Wei Changche.

"Farewell to Your Majesty."

After the emperor left, the officials dispersed and went back to their homes. After all, they had been taught a lesson by the emperor once, so they didn't dare to block the way here any longer.

But this does not mean that they will give up on gathering information. They will turn to their colleagues working in the Ministry of Justice and other departments to inquire.

On the other side, outside the Cheng’en Marquis’ Mansion.

The officers and soldiers surrounded the entire mansion, making it watertight.

Inside the Marquis’ Mansion, in the lobby.

Si Haodang, Si's mother, and Song Yirou were all there, and the servants had been sent out.

They hadn't realized yet that the mansion had been surrounded.

"What should we do? The eldest princess crawls out from underground and wants to settle the score?"

Si Haodang had gauze tied on his head with blood seeping out of the gauze. He walked back and forth in the lobby, with a heavy heart.

After Xie Lang left, he immediately dealt with all the servants present, except for Doctor Qian. He thought Doctor Qian would not dare to tell anyone, after all, it was a heinous crime punishable by the execution of nine generations of the family.

The witnesses and evidence have been destroyed, but why is he still uneasy when he thinks of Xie Lang?

Si's mother disagreed. In her opinion, it didn't matter if Wei Qingming was a princess. Since she had married into the Si family, she was a member of the Si family.

It doesn't matter how they argue. Every wife has gone through the same thing. Why is the princess so pampered?

What the eldest princess came back to life? She thought someone was playing tricks and took away that bitch Wei Qingming.

"Dang'er, the eldest princess died a long time ago, and her body has almost turned into dregs. How could she possibly crawl out of the ground? You must have seen it wrong."

Mother Si had a sarcastic look on her face, not worrying about this matter at all: "And even if the princess comes back, so what? That bitch Wei Qingming is not dead, can she still blame you?"

"Tell me, is this true?"

Then he turned his gaze to Song Yirou, who was still in a daze and was frightened when she heard Si's mother's question.

Thinking of the way Xie Lang looked at her as if she were an ant, she felt a little scared.

But after what Mother Si said, she became bolder: "The old lady is right. No matter how powerful the princess is, she can't control the backyard. How can parents interfere with their son-in-law's backyard?"

Song Yirou might be good at domestic fighting and at grasping men's hearts, but her vision was limited to the small piece of land in the backyard.

You will never understand that a parent who truly loves their daughter, when they see their daughter being murdered by her husband's family, will only become mortal enemies with the son-in-law's family and try every means to seek justice for their daughter.

They also won't understand that in the face of absolute strength, any means of house fighting will not stand up to scrutiny.

With the power of the eldest princess, let alone interfering in her son-in-law's backyard, even exterminating his entire family would be a matter of a word.

"Mother, remember that we have never treated Wei Qingming harshly, nor did we want to harm her. The child swap is pure fabrication. It was the eldest princess who took Wei Qingming away herself. It has nothing to do with us." Si Haodang said to Si's mother very solemnly. As long as they insisted that it had nothing to do with them, the evidence would be dealt with.

Even the eldest princess cannot convict them easily.

The law of the country is above everything else. In the past, the princess always handled things with reason and evidence. As long as they couldn't find evidence that he murdered Wei Qingming, the charge would not be established.

When the time comes, he will coax Wei Qingming again. Wei Qingming is a model of a good wife and mother, and she always puts him first in everything.

As long as he showed weakness, and considering his identity as Wei Qingming's husband and the fact that the child born to Wei Qingming would also have half his blood, he believed that Wei Qingming would protect him.

After all, a child cannot live without a father!

Even for the sake of the child, they probably wouldn't attack him, the child's father.

"what……"

Suddenly, all kinds of chaotic noises were heard.

"No...wuwuwu..."

The servants' screams of fear, the sound of tables being pushed over, the soldiers' scolding, the entire mansion was in chaos.

"What...what's going on? Son, go and see who is causing trouble in the mansion and arrest them all immediately."

Mrs. Si was in the lobby and heard the noise outside. She felt a little uneasy, but when she thought that this was the Marquis' Mansion and her son was the Marquis, she realized that no one would dare to cause trouble in the Marquis' Mansion.

Then I felt more confident and no longer panicked.

At the same time, the sound of rapid footsteps was heard.

Hundreds of officers and soldiers holding swords, wearing red robes, black armor and black boots came into Si Haodang's sight.

They moved in an orderly manner and quickly surrounded the entire lobby.

Immediately afterwards, dozens of officers and soldiers rushed into the lobby, and when they saw Si Haodang and others, they surrounded them.

"Ah..." Song Yirou had never seen such a scene before. She was so scared that she hid behind Si Haodang.

"How dare you! This is Marquis Cheng'en's Mansion, how dare you... retreat immediately..." When Si's mother saw that they were surrounded, she was so furious that her face turned red.

She is the wife of Marquis Cheng'en. Even the empress in the harem has to give her some face. But now she is surrounded by a group of soldiers.

"It is the Cheng'en Marquis's Mansion that is surrounded."

At this time, three people in charge came over, surrounded by a group of guards. The leader was wearing a python robe, and the two behind him were wearing a crimson official robe and a military officer's robe, respectively.

The person who spoke was the Prime Minister Shentu He who was walking in front. He had a beard and looked very majestic.

The one wearing the crimson official robe was Zou Xing, the Minister of Justice, and the one wearing the military officer's robe was Wang You, the General of Dingyuan.

"Prime Minister... Prime Minister, Minister Zou..." Seeing that it was Shen Tuhe who came to arrest him personally, Si Haodang was already panicking at this moment, but he still gave Shen Tuhe a forced smile: "What crime did I commit that made the Prime Minister mobilize so many troops to come here?"

"Is it a serious crime to murder the princess and replace the royal bloodline?" Zou Xing sneered and looked at Si Haodang with contempt.

He took advantage of the identity of the eldest princess's son-in-law to gain many benefits, and after the eldest princess left, he plotted against the princess's daughter. Isn't he a real ungrateful person?

"Nonsense, I didn't do it at all, you are slandering me." Si Haodang clenched his hands under his sleeves, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes. The eldest princess was so cruel. After all, he was her daughter's husband, but she didn't even show him the slightest bit of mercy.

Fortunately, the evidence has been destroyed. Without it, how could these people arrest me by force?

"The princess and I love each other very much, how could I possibly murder her? Prime Minister, you must investigate thoroughly before arresting anyone. I am a marquis after all, and slandering a marquis is a serious crime."

Si Haodang turned his gaze to Shentu He, reminding him that he was a marquis and even the prime minister could not take him down directly.

"Whether it is slander or not, let's talk about it in jail."

Shen Tuhe remained calm and said to the soldiers surrounding Si Haodang and the other two, "Capture them all."

"How dare you! This is the Marquis' Mansion. I am the old lady of the Marquis' Mansion... How dare you, you lowly bastards?" Si's mother cursed at the officers and soldiers who were rushing towards her. She was the old lady of the Marquis' Mansion and had always been majestic and looked down upon these inferior people.

Even now, she still couldn't recognize the situation and thought she was still the high and mighty old lady.

"My daughter-in-law is a princess, so I am also a royal relative. When the time comes... I will definitely wipe out all nine of your clans."

Mother Si kept saying harsh words, but she didn't know that these harsh words not only failed to make the officers and soldiers stop, but instead offended all the officers and soldiers present.

There was a gleam of ruthlessness in the eyes of the officers and soldiers who captured her. They directly grabbed her hands and secretly twisted them hard. The sound of breaking bones was heard. The next moment, Si Mu's screams resounded through the sky, startling the sparrows perched on the trees outside the hall.

Song Yirou was not feeling well either. Her hands were pulled behind her back by the soldiers and tied with hemp ropes. Her hair was in disarray. She said miserably, "You can't do this... Lord Marquis, save me..."

"Mother...Rou'er..." When Si Haodang saw his mother and Song Yirou being treated like this, anger burst out of his eyes, but he could not protect himself at this time.

The two soldiers also tied his hands behind his back. Si Haodang couldn't struggle free, so he could only glare at Shen Tuhe fiercely: "After all, I am a marquis. Aren't you afraid of His Majesty's blame for arresting me without any reason?"

"And I am innocent. I do not admit the charges you have brought against me. I want Wei Qingming to testify against me. Let me go, let me go..."
