Your Majesty, please stop messing around.
Chapter 499: Justice
In Linjiang City.
On the street, there were heavily armed city defense soldiers on both sides to maintain order, and they were surrounded by ordinary people who came to watch the excitement, stretching their necks to catch a glimpse of Prince Lin.
The news of Prince Lin's return spread quickly as if it had wings, causing the streets in the city to be crowded, lively and chaotic.
The 'Linjia Army' wearing black armor were majestic and guarded the carriage. The person leading the way on horseback on the street was none other than Wu Yue.
Wu Yue sat on the horse with an expressionless face, looking ahead, thinking about something in his deep eyes.
Until, suddenly, there was a burst of confusion among the noisy crowd.
"Your Highness, you have to make the decision for the old woman!"
A sharp and miserable voice suddenly sounded.
Immediately afterwards, a figure was seen squeezing out of the crowd, staggering into the street, and knelt down with a plop.
Wu Yue, who was concentrating on his thoughts, suddenly came to his senses and reined in his horse!
"Stop!"
He spoke suddenly.
The carriage behind him was also forced to stop.
"who?!"
Wu Yue's eyes suddenly turned cold and he looked forward.
Prince Linwang is going home today. Is there anyone in Linjiang City who dares to block the way without his foresight? !
In front of him, there appeared a sixty-year-old woman with a stooped figure and tattered clothes. She was kneeling in front of her, her head hitting the floor, and she was crying.
"Please, Your Majesty the Crown Prince, make the decision for the old woman!"
The voice was pitiful, and he shouted hoarsely.
The sound was so loud that it seemed as if all the strength of the body had been exhausted, and it was still clear even in the chaotic and noisy environment around it.
Uproar!
The surroundings seemed to be quiet for a brief moment, and the next second, there was an uproar.
"I'll go, who are you? How dare you block Prince Lin's way? Are you looking for death?"
"Who is it? Looking for the prince to seek justice? Isn't this a joke?"
"Wait a minute, that old woman looks familiar? I think I saw her a few days ago. She went to the Yamen to report it, and her son seemed to have been beaten to death!"
"Hiss... beaten to death? Wait, is he the man whose wife was robbed a few days ago?"
"It seems so. I heard that his wife was snatched away by someone. He went to argue but was severely beaten. When he wanted to report to the government, he was retaliated again and beaten to death... "
"Hiss, how pitiful, who could do such a cruel thing?"
"When you said it, I seemed to remember what happened a few days ago. Is it Chen..."
"Shh, you don't want to die?"
"..."
In the surrounding streets, this sudden scene attracted everyone's attention.
No one expected that someone would actually dare to stop Prince Lin in the street!
This scene is somewhat confusing!
No, isn't this son of a bitch the biggest scourge of Linjiang City?
Seek justice from him?
Is there any royal law for this?
Everyone's eyes fell on the old woman blocking the carriage on the street.
The old woman looked to be about sixty years old, with white hair, a haggard face full of wrinkles, and her clothes were in tatters, making her look miserable.
Very pitiful!
Her rickety figure was blocked in front of the carriage, which was in sharp contrast to the tall horse. If she hadn't stopped in time, the horse's hoofs would have almost trampled over her.
"Boohoo!"
The moment the old woman appeared, several figures in black armor appeared in front of the old woman at extremely fast speeds. The sword at his waist was unsheathed, surrounding him.
Full of murderous intent!
"who?!"
"How dare you stop His Royal Highness from driving, is this a crime?"
The cold tone was devoid of any emotion and filled with murderous intent.
It seems that in the next second, this old woman will be eradicated and solved!
Facing such oppressive and fierce murderous intent, the old woman trembled all over, but she still knelt on the spot, hitting her head heavily on the hard ground, her voice trembled, and she spoke hoarsely with grief.
"The old woman has been wronged, and I sincerely ask His Highness the Crown Prince to avenge the old woman!"
"My son died tragically, my daughter-in-law was snatched away, my family was ruined, and I have no way to report to the official..."
"The old woman is guilty. I stopped His Highness today. I hope His Highness will be merciful and seek justice for the old woman!"
"Please, Your Highness, this old woman kowtows to you..."
There was an uproar and discussions all around. On the street, the rickety old woman stopped in front of the carriage and hit her head heavily on the ground, bleeding profusely.
In front of him is the murderous aura lingering in the dark armor.
On horseback, Wu Yue frowned and said expressionlessly: "Take him down."
"yes!"
His Highness returned home today and it was not appropriate to be disturbed by anyone. Just as the guards were about to step forward to deal with it, a voice came from behind him.
"Wait a minute!"
"..."
Inside the carriage.
Lin Jiangnian was a little puzzled when he was stopped in the street.
Especially when he heard Lin Qingqing come to report that... a sixty-year-old woman came to him to seek justice.
Avenge?
Come to him?
Who doesn't know what kind of existence Prince Lin Wang is in Linjiang City?
That's not a good reputation at all!
In the eyes of the people of Linjiang City, Prince Lin is an out-and-out scourge, relying on his father, Prince Lin, to do random things and prey on the people.
It would be fine if he didn't cause injustice, but there are still people who come to him to redress their grievances?
It’s simply the most ridiculous thing in the world!
"Your Highness, how should we deal with it?"
Lin Qingqing asked.
Lin Jiangnian thought for a moment, but he still didn't know what happened.
But he had just returned to Linjiang City, and someone came to stop him from seeking justice in public, which made people suspicious.
"I'll go and take a look!"
After a brief thought, Lin Jiangnian made a decision immediately.
However, before he stood up, Lin Jiangnian thought of something and turned his head to look at An Ning, who had been sitting quietly beside him with a cold face.
Before he could speak, Jinxiu next to him noticed it instantly and said vigilantly: "What are you looking at An Ning for?!"
When An Ning saw His Highness looking at her, she was also slightly stunned, with an unnatural look.
"An Ning, do me a favor?"
Lin Jiangnian ignored Jinxiu's vigilant eyes and looked at An Ning.
"What, what favor?"
"Come with me, and I'll protect you closely later... Hey, Jinxiu, what are you doing? Stop making trouble!"
"..."
The curtain of the carriage was lifted.
Lin Jiangnian walked out of the carriage, and behind him, the twin sisters Jinxiu and An Ning walked out.
An Ning held a sword in her arms, her fair face looked a little unnatural, and she lowered her eyes slightly. Jinxiu, who was standing beside her, was slightly angry. She stood with An Ning and followed Lin Jiangnian.
At this moment, the streets were in chaos, and the city defense soldiers on the side of the street were trying their best to maintain order to prevent any more accidents.
Lin Jiangnian stepped forward, his eyes fell on the old woman who was surrounded by black-armored guards on the street in front of him, kneeling on the ground and kowtowing, and narrowed his eyes slightly.
"You should retreat first."
Lin Jiangnian said.
The black-armored guards did not move, and looked at Wu Yue on the side.
Wu Yue frowned slightly and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, this person's origin is unknown, and he may be in danger. Let the government handle this matter."
"If the government is useful, why would she come to this prince?"
Lin Jiangnian glanced at Wu Yue.
"This..."
Wu Yue frowned even deeper.
"Why, is this prince's words useless?"
Lin Jiangnian's tone was still light.
But Wu Yue's heart was slightly shaken. He glanced at Lin Jiangnian and collected his mind.
"I dare not!"
Then he waved his hand: "Everyone retreat."
The black-armored guards retreated.
An Ning and Jinxiu followed behind Lin Jiangnian. An Ning turned a blind eye to this scene and didn't care. Her eyes were all focused on Lin Jiangnian in front of her. At the same time, she looked around vigilantly to prevent any danger from approaching His Highness.
And Jinxiu silently took in this scene.
It seems that there are many people in the Lin Wang Mansion who don't recognize His Highness's identity...
A hint of worry appeared in her beautiful eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
After the black-armored guards retreated, Lin Jiangnian walked up to the old woman.
This is an old woman with gray hair, hunched over, thin and weak. Judging from her clothes, her family is obviously not very well off.
She looked miserable and old, as if she would fall down at any time. Swollen eye sockets, blood flowing from the forehead, immersed in grief.
When she heard footsteps approaching, the old woman slowly raised her head. When she saw Lin Jiangnian, she trembled all over and her voice became more intense; "Your Highness, Your Highness..."
"This old woman pays homage to Your Highness..."
"Please ask Your Highness to seek justice for this old woman..."
As she said this, she knelt in front of Lin Jiangnian again, and her head fell heavily on the ground.
"Old man, get up first."
Lin Jiangnian did not step forward, but looked at the old woman quietly: "Do you recognize this prince?"
"This old woman has seen the portrait of Your Highness..."
The old woman's voice was hoarse and trembling, and the whole person was extremely haggard, as if she had cried for a long time and was powerless: "This old woman finally waited for Your Highness to come back, please ask Your Highness to seek justice for this old woman, this old woman kowtows to Your Highness..."
The old woman's tone was excited and a little incoherent, as if she had grabbed the last straw to save her life, and she continued to kowtow to Lin Jiangnian.
"Old man, there is no need to do this."
Lin Jiangnian shook his head, but did not step forward.
Unsure of the old woman's identity and origin, he always maintained the necessary vigilance.
"Stop me on the street and tell me what you have wronged?"
Lin Jiangnian half-squinted his eyes: "If you can't tell me, I will never let you go easily."
Hearing this, the old woman trembled all over, as if the grievances of so many days suddenly surged into her heart, and her voice was hoarse and screaming.
"Your Highness, I have a great injustice!"
"My daughter-in-law was taken away by someone, and my son went to seek justice and was beaten to death..."
"I reported to the authorities, but was driven out by the government, and even my house was raided..."
"I really have no other choice..."
"Your Highness, you have to make a decision for me..."
"..."
"Damn it!"
In the city, on a street teahouse.
When Chen Junru saw the scene of blocking the road in front of him from a distance, his face suddenly became extremely ugly in the box.
"Isn't this the old woman?"
"Is she crazy? Is she blocking Lin Jiangnian's way?"
"Want to ask Prince Lin to support her and redress her injustice?!"
For a moment, the eyes of the other playboys in the box all turned to Chen Junru.
It was obvious that everyone present knew what was going on.
This matter should have been resolved. With the power of the Chen family in Linjiang City, ordinary people could not possibly fight against it.
The family whose wife was robbed by Chen Junru was just an ordinary family in Linjiang City, without any power or foundation. Under normal circumstances, it was not worth taking seriously.
But no one expected that Prince Lin would come back at this time!
I didn’t expect that the old woman would stop the carriage of Prince Lin and cry out for justice?
“Is she mentally ill? Prince Lin would care about such a small matter of hers?!”
At first, Chen Junru thought so too, but when he saw the carriages and horses stopped on the street in the distance and Lin Jiangnian appeared, Chen Junru finally couldn’t sit still!
“Quick, find someone to deal with her for me, drag her away, and don’t let her talk nonsense!!”
A feeling of uneasiness rose in Chen Junru’s heart.
Although he was not worried, his father had already handled this matter properly and left no handle.
But Chen Junru was still a little uneasy in his heart, and the source of all this uneasiness came from... Lin Jiangnian!
Chen Junru’s face turned pale and he stood up immediately.
“No, I’ll go and see!”
After that, Chen Junru went downstairs.
The other dandies in the remaining box looked at each other.
"What should we do?"
"What else can we do? Let's watch the show!"
"Chen Junru is panicking now. If he is really targeted by the Prince of Lin, it will be interesting!"
"No way, Lin Jiangnian will care about such a small matter? He is not a good guy himself. Isn't it funny that the old woman is looking for him to seek justice?"
"That's hard to say!"
A playboy showed a meaningful look on his face: "Now that the life and death of the Prince of Lin is unknown, the Prince of Lin's Mansion is in danger, how can the Prince of Lin jump around?"
"It may not be possible to do anything to the Chen family..."
"..."
On the street.
The old woman trembled and told her grievances in tears.
Her family was originally an ordinary citizen in Linjiang City. Her son was filial and married a beautiful daughter-in-law. The family lived in harmony.
Unexpectedly, her daughter-in-law was spotted and snatched away when she went out on the street a month ago. After hearing the news, her son went to argue, but was beaten and lay injured in bed.
The son went to the county government office to report the case in anger, but was blocked outside the door. In a hurry, the son was ready to go to the Linwang Mansion to seek justice, but before he arrived at the Linwang Mansion, he was stopped by a group of hooligans and beaten severely. He died within two days of returning home!
The originally happy and harmonious family was broken in an instant.
The old woman was heartbroken and wanted to seek justice for her son and daughter-in-law. She went to the government office to report the case, but was still blocked outside the door and had no way to appeal.
How could she, a powerless person, fight against a powerful family?
With nowhere to go, the old woman heard from a kind-hearted person that the prince of Linwang was about to return to the mansion. So, she waited for a long time, and finally waited until the prince of Linwang came back, and then she was bold enough to block the car on the street.
She wanted to beg the prince of Linwang to seek justice for her and give her justice!
After listening to the tearful description of the old woman, Lin Jiangnian's face did not react. Instead, Jinxiu and An Ning, who were following behind Lin Jiangnian, were the first to be moved.
"Snatching a woman, treating human life as worthless... Is there any law in this?!"
