Su Qingyu clenched the fists in her sleeves, feeling deeply powerless for the first time because of her status.
The Queen Mother must have expected that things would turn out this way, so she sought out such a powerful identity for her, right?
After all, she was still too young, and her approach was far less far-sighted than the Queen Mother's.
"Master Jiang, do you think so too?"
Jiang Yihe pursed his lips, but in the end he still couldn't wipe out his conscience.
"According to the law, what Miss Jiang said is correct."
"Your Highness King Qi, although the case has been clearly investigated, the confessions of the Hua family are always consistent and completely different from those in the files, which means there must be a hidden secret. How about..."
"Master Jiang!"
King Qi glanced sideways at Jiang Yihe, his tone full of warning.
"Don't forget that you are here to assist me in handling the case. When will it be your turn to give orders?"
"Why is Brother Qi Wang so anxious? I remember that my father did not give an oral order for Brother Qi Wang to finalize the case tomorrow."
Lu Yuncheng, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke calmly.
Just the moment he opened his mouth, the entire hall immediately smelled like gunpowder smoke.
"What's going on, Seventh Brother? My father allowed you to come to Yongcheng so that you could observe and learn, so that you would have the strength to return to the court as soon as possible."
"Seventh brother, don't forget, you are only qualified to watch, but you have no right to participate."
Only then did Su Qingyu know that Lu Yuncheng would appear in Yongcheng, and it turned out to be this reason.
"Although I am only qualified to watch, I still have to speak out when I see Brother Qi Wang making a mistake, right?"
Lu Yuncheng didn't seem to be angry at all because of King Qi's words. Instead, he crossed his legs very leisurely and leaned on the back of the chair.
"Brother Qi Wang knows that I have always had a bad temper. Especially since I have been suppressing it for five years and am eager to find a way to vent my anger!"
King Qi immediately turned cold and said, "Oh? Seventh brother, you might as well tell me what kind of breakthrough you want."
Lu Yuncheng's eyes scanned the room indifferently, and then fell on Liu Renwu.
"Although I have reconciled with Miss Su, we are still husband and wife."
For no reason, Lu Yuncheng suddenly mentioned this topic, and even Su Qingyu was baffled, let alone others.
Everyone turned their eyes to Lu Yuncheng, waiting for his next words.
"Brother Prince Qi knows that before my leg was broken, he was always the most impatient and the most honorable one."
"Now, someone dares to challenge my patience and slap my face. Brother Qi, what do you think should be done about this matter?"
Having said this, and the look in Lu Yuncheng's eyes on Liu Renwu was almost murderous, everyone guessed what he wanted to do.
But this Liu Renwu was clearly from King Qi. If he fell into Lu Yuncheng's hands, wouldn't these two people have to fall out on the spot?
Except for Su Qingyu, everyone present did not even dare to show off.
"Seventh brother, don't be ridiculous! This is handling a case, not a place for you to lose your temper!"
King Qi hoped that Lu Yuncheng would understand the situation and not ruin his important event.
"Besides, what we are talking about now is the case of the Hua family selling illegal salt. Let's not mention other irrelevant matters for the time being."
But Lu Yuncheng was unyielding: "As a parent official of Yongcheng, not only did he not benefit the people of Yongcheng, but he couldn't even handle this small case. How could this have nothing to do with this case?"
"I must tell you that if you want to get to the bottom of this case, the most critical person is Mr. Liu!"
To Liu Renwu, Lu Yuncheng's voice sounded like a life-seeking ghost from hell, and he didn't dare to look directly at it.
From the moment they found out that Lu Yuncheng was Prince Ling and Su Qingyu's divorced husband, Liu Renwu and Liu Yao were frightened out of their wits.
If he wanted to survive now, he could only hold onto King Qi's thigh tightly.
Otherwise, once it falls into Lu Yuncheng's hands, life will be worse than death.
"His Royal Highness King Qi! I am very loyal to you!"
"For the Hua family's case of selling illegal salt, I have tried my best! Please ask His Highness King Qi to consider that I have toiled hard even though I have no merit. I would like to ask His Highness Prince Ling to show his favor and let me go."
King Qi showed annoyance and signaled Liu Renwu to get up first: "Master Liu, don't worry..."
"Oh? When Mr. Liu talks about hard work, do you mean stepping on my face, despising the royal majesty and teasing Miss Su?"
Lu Yuncheng stood up calmly, which made Liu Renwu tremble all over.
"Or is it that Mr. Liu's hard work is to ask the Su family girl to give her money in front of the people before letting her see her family?"
"Or maybe Mr. Liu's hard work is because he has bullied others in Yongcheng for so many years, raped women, humiliated the people, and committed all kinds of evil?"
With every word Lu Yuncheng said, King Qi's heart sank.
Although Lu Yuncheng is not qualified to cooperate in handling cases, no one can say that he is a dignified prince, and he does not even have the right to deal with a corrupt official who knows the law and breaks the law and does all kinds of evil.
"His Royal Highness King Qi! Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."
King Qi closed his eyes and said nothing.
He knew that he could not save Liu Renwu.
But as long as Lu Yun doesn't interfere with the illegal salt case, he can do whatever he wants.
What's more, Liu Renwu is stupid. If he can be eliminated with Lu Yuncheng's help, it may not be a good thing.
"Master Liu, are you going to plead guilty yourself, or will I beat you until you confess?"
Lu Yuncheng approached Liu Renwu step by step, so frightened that Liu Renwu was shaking all over like chaff.
Now, for him, whether to admit guilt or not seems to be a dead end.
What's more, Lu Yuncheng didn't give him a chance to choose.
As soon as he finished speaking, he grabbed Liu Renwu's collar, lifted him up high, and then kicked him in the chest in front of everyone.
Liu Renwu instantly flew to the yard outside, and his fat body caused him to roll twice on the ground.
Qingfeng wanted to teach Liu Renwu a lesson for his master, but was held back by Liu Yun behind him.
Liuyun shook his head towards Qingfeng, signaling him not to be too smart.
Liu Renwu dared to take advantage of Miss Su, and now he fell into the hands of his master. How could he give the opportunity to vent his anger to others?
Just by making eye contact, Lu Yuncheng flew up to Liu Renwu and looked at him condescendingly.
"How many lives do you have, dare to touch my king's people."
Liu Renwu looked at him in horror: "His Royal Highness, Prince Ling, are you not making peace with Miss Su..."
"ah!"
Lu Yuncheng didn't even give Liu Renwu a chance to finish his words. He stepped on his arm, and the sound of broken bones could be clearly heard.
"Don't you like to be a dog-legger to others?"
Lu Yun said coldly in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Dogs all crawl."
