I've been reborn, who still wants to be a cowardly little white flower?

The carriages entered the city, and several families went straight home. The residences of Prince Jin and several other ladies would pass by the yamen, and they would follow the people from the Jiang residence to the yamen.

But as soon as they arrived at the yamen, they saw a large number of yamen runners running out of the yamen, and even the prefect followed out behind the team.

Everyone in the Jiang residence got off the carriage and looked at the yamen in surprise. Princess Jin and the other ladies also opened the windows and looked in. What was going on? Did something happen in the city today? Why was the yamen so busy today?

The person who came out after the prefect stunned everyone in the Jiang residence. They saw Chunzhi supporting Jiang Yuan, who was almost fainting from crying, and following behind the prefect, crying as she walked.

The two groups of people bumped into each other at the gate of the yamen. The yamen runners looked at each other in bewilderment. The prefect saw that everyone who had left the gate had stopped and could not help but shout, "What are you standing there for? Go and save them."

As he spoke, he also stepped out of the gate. A yamen runner pointed at the person in front of him and said, "This, sir, isn't this..."

The prefect was also stunned, "Jiang, Lord Jiang?"

Jiang Yuan cried and leaned on Chunzhi, and hurriedly chased after him, "Sir, please go quickly, don't... Dad!"

Jiang Yuan's eyes were red, her makeup was smudged by her tears, she couldn't speak clearly, and she kept sobbing. It was obvious that she had been crying hard.

"Dad, are you okay? I was so scared. I thought you were caught by thieves." Jiang Yuan cried and rushed to Jiang Zhou.

She cried so sincerely and with such anxiety on her face, without any sign of falsehood, that Jiang Zhou was dazed for a moment, dazed by Jiang Yuan's true feelings.

"Big sister, second brother, Madam, you are all okay, it's really great, you scared me to death." Jiang Yuan cried louder and louder, he was terrified.

People in the carriage not far away began to whisper, "What's going on? Didn't they say that the thieves were chasing the second girl? The second girl went to the government office to report the case first..."

"Is there a thief?"

"Of course there is, otherwise Miss Jiang Er would come to report to the police, and Miss Jiang Da would also say that she encountered a thief."

"Who did the thief chase after?"

Jiang Wan's eyes almost popped out of her head, she let out a loud roar, and rushed to Jiang Yuan, grabbing her and pulling her away from Jiang Zhou.

Jiang Yuan was pulled by Jiang Wan and took several steps back, tripped over the stairs and fell to the ground.

There was a cry of surprise from the carriage.

Jiang Wan clearly didn't use any force, but she was even more angry when she saw Jiang Yuan's behavior. "Why are you here? Shouldn't you have been captured by the thieves?"

Jiang Yuan cried even harder, and his speech was also twitchy. He didn't say a complete sentence for a long time, "Big, big sister, I, I, I..."

Chunzhi supported Jiang Yuan, supporting her distressedly, and said to Jiang Wan, "What do you mean by that, young lady? What do you mean my girl should be taken away?"

Jiang Wan also realized that she had said the wrong thing, but after Chunzhi reminded her, the people around her, including the onlookers, started talking about it.

"Yes, what do you mean by should be arrested?"

"Why does it feel like she wants the girl to be captured even more?"

"Oh, that's her sister."

"What, sister?"

Jiang Wan panicked, stamped her feet, and pointed at Jiang Yuan, "You, stop accusing me. I mean, I clearly saw the thieves chasing your carriage, why are you here?"

Jiang Yuan frowned and cried like a pear blossom in the rain. When he raised his head, the look in his eyes was really pitiful. He cried so hard that he was out of breath and couldn't speak clearly. He couldn't even utter complete sentences when he wanted to defend himself.

"I, I didn't..."

It was Chunzhi who spoke up again. She raised her voice and tried to make every word clear, "What you said doesn't make sense, young lady. It's obviously the thieves who are chasing your carriage.

At that time the carriages were separated. The first three carriages were in the same direction, while we and the one at the back were separated. The thieves were out to rob money, so naturally they went after the carriages with more people. The thieves were not stupid, and they knew that robbing one carriage would not bring as much money as robbing three.

When my daughter saw the thieves chasing you, she was so anxious that she rode as fast as she could to the city. She even ran until her horse vomited, just to buy time to rescue people.

After Chunzhi finished speaking, Jiang Yuan let out a cry and cried even louder.

Jiang Wan listened to the whispers around her, and her anger overwhelmed her reason. "You're talking nonsense, what do you mean by robbery? Those people are clearly..."

"Wan'er!" Jiang Zhou shouted loudly. Jiang Wan's mind cleared instantly and she covered her mouth with her hand.

But it was all too late. Although she didn't finish her words, this half-sentence made people think more.

"What are those people obviously?"

"Ouch, keep your voice down."

"She said it, not me."

The discussions of the people around showed that they had heard it all and grasped the main points.

Jiang Yuan also stopped crying, staring at Jiang Wan with eyes wide open in disbelief, and then looked at Jiang Zhou with a probing look, "Dad, what did elder sister say... um... um... what... did you mean? Those... those thieves... could it be you, why are you... I am also your daughter..."

Jiang Zhou's face turned dark, and he shouted, "No, what are you thinking about? How could it be possible? How could you doubt your biological father so much?"

After that, Jiang Zhou added, "Your elder sister was anxious and worried about your safety, so she spoke incoherently for a while."

Jiang Yuan didn't care about his excuses, justice is in the hearts of the people.

Princess Jin closed the window and said to the driver, "Go back home."

The carriage had just taken two steps when it was stopped by Qin Yunzheng who came in panic.

Qin Yunzheng's face was as pale as paper and he was covered in cold sweat. When he got off the horse, his legs went weak and he almost fell down. Fortunately, the people around him supported him.

Seeing him like this, the princess thought something had happened and hurriedly got out of the car, "What's wrong? Why do you look so bad?"

Qin Yunzheng turned his head and saw Jiang Yuan sitting on the steps at the entrance of the government office. His eyes widened and he pointed at Jiang Yuan and trembled, "She, she, she, she..."

One of the ladies in the carriage nearby, who seemed to be a gossiper, also got off the carriage and said, "Hey, what happened to the prince? Didn't the prince go to rescue people and catch the thief? Didn't he catch him?"

Princess Jin felt a headache when she heard this voice. How could she forget the person she had personally invited?

He originally planned to take advantage of her gossiping and meddling nature to spread Jiang Yuan's affairs, but he ended up shooting himself in the foot.

The prefect also understood that Qin Yunzheng had gone to chase the thieves. There was such a commotion at the gate, and the families of important officials of the court were arguing at the gate of the yamen. If this got out, it would damage the image of the court.

The prefect seized on this topic and quickly changed the subject, walking to Qin Yunzheng's side and asking, "Sir, have you caught the thief?"

Qin Yunzheng looked horrified, and the princess became anxious, "Speak."

A guard beside the prince said, "The thieves are all dead..."

As soon as these words were spoken, gasps of surprise were heard all around.

Chapter 46 Thorough Investigation

"What, dead?" Jiang Zhou's body swayed and he almost fell down.

Jiang Wan also stared at Qin Yunzheng with eyes wide open in disbelief. Dead? How is this possible?

The prefect was also shocked and quickly asked Qin Yunzheng, "Prince, is this true?"

Qin Yunzheng hadn't recovered yet and could only nod.

The guards beside him glanced in the direction of the people in Jiang Mansion, especially at Jiang Yuan who was still sitting on the ground, "Sir, those thieves should have been killed by a master, all killed in one blow."

Jiang Wan suddenly looked towards Jiang Yuan, but her face was filled with fear and shock, and she even began to tremble, revealing no flaws at all.

Even Chunzhi was frightened and fell down beside Jiang Yuan.

The prefect scratched his head. This matter had attracted so many people's attention and had also involved the Minister's Mansion and the Prince of Jin. After thinking it over, he decided that he didn't want to get involved in this mess.

"Well, come here, bring back the bodies of those thieves. Since they are all bandits and are already dead, why not..."

Before the prefect finished speaking, a cold but powerful voice came from outside the crowd, "Then we must investigate it thoroughly."

Everyone turned around and Princess Jin's expression changed immediately. Qin Yunzheng's already pale face began to turn darker.

Qin Mowei walked out from behind the crowd with the two of them. His sharp eyes swept over everyone present and stayed on Jiang Wan and Jiang Zhou's faces for a few seconds.

"Aunt Princess, how are you?" Qin Mowei bowed to Princess Jin, then looked at Qin Yunzheng.

Qin Yunzheng almost peed his pants after seeing this look.

Jiang Wan had only heard of Anyang Prince Qin Mowei and had seen him once from a distance, but they had never spoken to each other. She had no idea of ​​Qin Mowei's deterrent power, an existence that even Qu Ying trembled with fear.

When the prefect saw Qin Mowei, he was overwhelmed. It was over. It was impossible to make a big deal out of a small matter or a small matter.

"Prince, why are you here?" The prefect stepped forward and saluted Qin Mowei.

Qin Mowei did not answer, but said calmly, "I heard everything you said just now. I will investigate this matter."

Qin Yunzheng, who was too frightened, suddenly perked up after hearing this. He was supported by someone and took two steps. He pushed away the people around him and bowed to Qin Mowei, "Third brother is busy with official duties. The government office can investigate this little matter of the bandits."

Jiang Wan's expression also changed, and she quickly tugged at Jiang Zhou's sleeve.

Jiang Yuan saw all her little movements, and she saw everyone's reactions just now.

Jiangzhou knew about this matter, and so did Princess Jin. As expected, they were birds of a feather.

Jiangzhou immediately followed up and said, "Yes, the prince is a pillar of the court and has many important tasks. How can we trouble the prince with family affairs? It is better to let the government investigate."

"He was killed in one strike, so he must be an expert. It must not be a simple matter for such an expert to sneak into the capital. How can it be a family matter? Lord Jiang, this is related to the safety of the people in the capital, not a family matter. As an official appointed by the court, you must consider the safety of the people carefully."

"Besides, these thieves are too bold to rob important officials and their families in broad daylight. We must investigate which mountain they are from. Otherwise, the people passing by will be in danger."

Qin Mowei's intention was not only to investigate the murderer who killed those thieves, but also to investigate the identities of those thieves. Jiang Wan was immediately panicked, and Qin Yunzheng was also panicked.

Jiang Wan was not clear about Qin Mowei's character and abilities, but Qin Yunzheng knew. If he intervened in the investigation, he would definitely find out the identities of those people and whether they were hired, and then their plans would be discovered.

Qin Mowei will not tolerate any grain of sand in his eyes. By then, neither the Jiang Mansion nor the Prince Jin's Mansion will be in trouble.

Thinking of this, Qin Yunzheng, who had always been afraid to speak for Qin Mo, was also dominated by fear and gained some courage. "Third brother, if the Taichang Temple intervenes in the investigation, it will be criticized. It is more in line with the procedure for the government office to investigate."

Qin Mowei tilted his head and looked at Qin Yunzheng, snorting softly, "Anchen, the Taichang Temple should not interfere, you are the Tingwei Division, this is your duty, right?"

Qin Mo smiled for a man who looked to be in his twenties behind him, "Your Highness is right, let's leave it to the Court of Justice."

The prefect was very anxious when he heard what they said. Qin Mowei said that he would be responsible for the investigation, and the prefect was relieved. But Jiang Zhou said that the government office should still investigate. He cursed in his heart, why is this prefect Jiang so annoying.

To be a senior official in the capital, one may not have other abilities, but one must have the ability to avoid trouble and save his life. He also thought about what Qin Mowei said.

Since they were thieves with knives who dared to hijack the convoy, they must not be ordinary people and must have some skills. They were all killed in one blow, which means that the people who killed them must be experts.

There is such a master in the capital. If he goes to investigate, not only can he find out the truth, but if he makes him angry, it will be a question of whether he can save his own life.

But the Prince of Jin and Lord Jiang kept pushing the blame onto him. If he was really held responsible, it would be too late and he would not be able to make it through this New Year.

Qin Mowei must be concerned about the outcome of the case he knew about. He couldn't just let it go and had to investigate. However, the investigation would be difficult and even dangerous. He was in a dilemma.

Now, the case was handed over to the Supreme Court by Qin Mowei, and he had nothing to do with it. In order to prevent the two from throwing this hot potato on him, the prefect hurriedly bowed and said to the young man who was speaking, "Then I'll trouble you, Lord An of the Supreme Court.

The prince is right. This matter is not simple. I am afraid my government office is not capable of handling it. It is safer to hand it over to the Ministry of Justice."

An Chen from the Ministry of Justice returned the greeting to the prefect, "Your Excellency is too polite." After that, he turned to the guard beside Qin Yunzheng and said, "Brother, please lead the way."

Just as Qin Yunzheng was about to refuse, he felt a dangerous gaze coming at him, and then a dangerous and warning question sounded above his head, "Why, do you object?"

Qin Yunzheng immediately shook his head, "No, no."

"That's good." He said this coldly, and when he turned to leave, he glanced at Jiang Yuan who was sitting on the ground, "Second Miss Jiang, do you need me to escort you back to the Marquis' Mansion?"

Jiang Yuan was stunned, Jiang Zhou was stunned, the prefect and everyone else who was watching the fun was stunned.

Only Jiang Wan, after being shocked, stared at Jiang Yuan with resentment, her fingernails digging into her flesh.

Princess Jin and Qin Yunzheng felt mixed emotions.

When did Jiang Yuan become so familiar with Qin Mo?
