The Village Girl Who Jinxes Her Husband Is Filthy Rich

Chapter 1563: Interrogation

Translator: Lonelytree

Therefore, as long as Jiang Zhennan didn’t break off the engagement, his unfilial behavior would be immediately confirmed.

However, the Black Clouds Kingdom was eyeing the Longyan Kingdom covetously, and the Longyan Kingdom still needed Jiang Zhennan. Even if Jiang Zhennan were unfilial, everyone would turn a blind eye to it.

Jiang Zhennan would definitely break off the engagement to protect his position as the Great General.

Any man would do that.

In this way, without the protection of General Jiang Zhennan, Lin Yuelan’s title of Princess of Guguo would be revoked. Who would overturn the verdict for a person who was guilty and had no backing?

Therefore, the matter of Liu Zhengbin going to Anding County might be forgotten.

The other was that no matter whether the plan succeeded or failed, as long as someone found out that Liu Zhengbin had been to Anding County, they would just have to make sure that he was only visiting his relatives there.

Because with a little investigation, they would be able to find out that the current county magistrate of Anding County, Liu Shihong, was a member of the Liu family, and Liu Zhengbin had an excuse to go to Anding County.

That was why Liu Xinren was so fearless.

Dai Lixin listened to Liu Xinren’s words and frowned slightly. Then, he said,” In that case, I have no more questions. However,” he changed the topic and continued,” In order to confirm the authenticity of Lord Liu’s words, I have already ordered someone to go to the Liu residence to invite your nephew over! Right now, he is in another room being questioned.”

Liu Xinren was stunned and immediately scolded,” Dai Lixin, what do you mean by this? Are you suspecting me? Suspecting that I am the mastermind behind the slander and framing of Princess Gu?”

Dai Lixin smiled and said,” Lord Liu, why are you angry? This official is just doing his routine! After all, it was suspicious for your nephew to go to Anding

County at that time, wasn’t it?”

Liu Xinren didn’t argue and just snorted coldly.

Then, he said, “In that case, Lord Dai, do you have any questions for me? If there are no more questions, I’ll go back!”

Dai Lixin nodded and said,” No more questions. Lord Liu can leave now!” After Liu Xinren was helped away, two people walked out from behind the screen.

Dai Daren immediately went forward to greet him.” Princess Gu, Great General!”

Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan nodded and said,” Yes!”

Then, Lord Dai Daren, ” Princess Guguo, Great General, Liu Zhengbin going to Anding County seems to have a reasonable excuse!”

In fact, when he was investigating this case, he had a headache.

Originally, it wasn’t such a headache. However, the witnesses in the Ministry of Justice’s prison were killed overnight, and the culprits escaped. The case was in a deadlock!

Lin Yuelan said,” No matter how good an excuse is, it still has flaws!”

However, Liu Zhengbin was working in secret. County Magistrate Liu might not know about this.

Otherwise, with his intelligence, he would definitely stop Liu Zhengbin from doing such a stupid thing.

As the county magistrate of An Ding County, he was in charge of the Lin Family Village. He knew the grudge between Lin Yuelan and the Lin Family Village the best.

Most importantly, as the county magistrate, he had benefited the most from the phoenix that flew out of Lin Family Village.

As long as his term of office was up to three years, he would definitely be promoted next time. Who knew, he might even be promoted a few more levels.

Therefore, in terms of benefits, County Magistrate Liu would definitely stop their actions.

Therefore, Lin Yuelan didn’t suspect that County Magistrate Liu was plotting against her.

Lord Dai frowned and said,” Princess, what about this?”

Lin Yuelan sneered and said, “Lord Dai, there’s no need to investigate. Go ahead and interrogate them!” “Yes, princess!” Lord Dai replied.

Lord Dai was puzzled.

He did not understand why the princess of Guguo was so sure that the instigator was Lord Liu.

Moreover, His Majesty had given him a secret edict to fully cooperate with the investigation.

The Minister of Justice, Dai Lixin, was seated in the hall of the Ministry of Justice. On the left and right were Jiang Zhennan, Lin Yuelan, Liu Xinren, Xiao Jingyu, Xiao Jingrui, and the Crown Prince.

The Crown Prince represented the Emperor and was supervising the trial of this case of slandering and framing the Princess of Guguo.

Liu Xinren looked at Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan, who were sitting in the hall. His face was a little weak, but he was very unhappy and asked sternly,

“Lord Dai, what do you mean? The Lin family slandered and framed the princess of the Guguo, Why did you invite me to hear the case? I didn’t receive His Majesty’s decree for me to come here for a hearing.”

Lord Dai said sternly,” I only asked Lord Liu to supervise. How do you think we should proceed with this case?”

Liu Xinren said suspiciously,” But I heard that the witnesses in this case have been silenced. How are we going to continue the trial?”

” Lord Liu, perhaps you don’t know, but one witness is still alive!”

“What?” Liu Xinren’s eyes widened in surprise, but then he looked guilty and nervous. He asked in a questioning tone, “Lord Dai, why didn’t you tell me?”

Lord Dai seemed to find it strange.” Sir Liu, why do you say that?” This case is being investigated by me, not Lord Liu. Why do I need to inform Lord Liu about this?”

Lord Liu knew that he would lose his footing if he spoke too much. He could only suppress his anger and pretend to be calm.” So, Lord Dai, since I’m not investigating this case, why did you let me supervise the trial?”

Lin Yuelan sat there without saying a word, but Jiang Zhennan, who was beside her, spoke up.

He said,” Lord Liu, letting Lord Liu sit here for the hearing was my intention!”

That was all he said.

However, this sentence alone was like a huge wave in a lake, rolling and surging.

Other than Liu Xinren, Xiao Jingyu also had this feeling.

She was also shocked..
