Chapter 376: Falling out and going to court
Lord Jin was still struggling with what pretext to use to invite the prince to the government office when he heard the announcement.
"Sir, the Crown Prince is here."
"You're here so soon?" Lord Jin stood up quickly.
Before anyone saw Xiao Yanan, they heard the drum for redress sounding again.
"Who is beating the drum again?" Lord Jin felt a headache.
"Your Excellency, it was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who knocked."
"This...this...please invite His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in." Lord Jin immediately said to his subordinates.
"Yes." The bailiff immediately went to invite Xiao Yan'an.
When Xiao Yan'an walked into the court, he saw Liao Yunfei standing there.
"Liao Yunfei, how dare you sue me?" Xiao Yan'an asked directly.
Liao Yunfei looked a little embarrassed, and retorted aggrievedly: "Sir, when you sent me the divorce letter, did you ever think about my life or death? After all, we are already married, and I am your concubine. How could you care about my face?"
Xiao Yan'an did not respond to Liao Yunfei, but turned to look at Jin Dada, "Sir, did you hear the drumbeat just now?"
"I heard it." Lord Jin responded quickly.
"Is the drum sound loud?" Xiao Yan'an asked again.
This question confused Master Jin, and he could only respond, "Big."
“No matter how loud the drums are, they are not as great as my injustice!”
Mr. Jin: ...
"Master Jin, I am the prince of Huaiyang Palace, but I was forced to marry! How great is this injustice? Liao Yunfei took advantage of the fact that she sang a song at the Queen Mother's birthday banquet and won her favor, and took the opportunity to ask for the Queen Mother's marriage, regardless of whether I am willing to marry her or not!"
Liao Yunfei's expression suddenly became even uglier.
"You said, just marry her. It's just one more mouth to feed. My prince's mansion doesn't need her to eat. But why doesn't she behave herself? The emperor wanted to hold a birthday party and asked her to perform, but she didn't practice the piano properly and even had an affair with a man. I even saw her in the act!"
"Prince! I know you don't like me, but you don't have to slander my reputation like this! Shen Chengjing and I are innocent! Can you please bring Shen Chengjing out and confront him on the spot!"
"Shen Chengjing is a vicious and sinister villain who killed his wife. Can his words be trusted? Are his words truer than what I saw with my own eyes? Lord Jin, you have been an official for many years and have solved countless cases. Tell me, does what this prince said make sense?"
"There is some truth in what the prince said," Lord Jin blurted out.
"Master Jin is wise!" Xiao Yan'an said, and immediately took out a divorce letter from his pocket, "Since Master Jin also agrees with what I said, please stamp this divorce letter with your official seal."
After saying that, Xiao Yan'an slapped the divorce letter against Lord Jin's chest.
Lord Jin subconsciously held the divorce letter in his hand, and was stunned for a moment before he realized what a hot potato this was.
Wanting to return it to Xiao Yanan, Xiao Yanan took a few steps back.
Lord Jin held the divorce letter with an embarrassed look on his face.
"Your Highness, although the official seal of the divorce letter is stamped by the government office, it is only a divorce letter for ordinary people. The divorce letter of the prince involves the royal family. I am afraid that the official seal I stamped will not count."
“Whether it counts or not, just build one and try it out. If it doesn’t count, we’ll tell you later.” Xiao Yan’an responded nonchalantly.
Lord Jin is about to cry.
What should I do? Who will save him?
If this continues, he will be killed by the prince!
Liao Yunfei looked at Xiao Yan'an and was once again hurt by his ruthlessness.
He had some affection for Lin Siyou, who had just entered the mansion, but not for her at all!
Liao Yunfei suddenly opened her collar, exposing the scars from being bitten by the wolf. Everyone was shocked when they saw the hideous wound on one side of her shoulder.
"Why does Liao Yunfei have such hideous wounds on her body?"
"It looks like a fresh wound, probably caused by a bite from a ferocious beast, so the wound is a bit bumpy and uneven."
"She is a weak woman who stays in the mansion all day long without leaving the front door or the back door. How could she come into contact with a ferocious beast?"
Liao Yunfei's eyes were red, as if she had a great grievance in her heart. "I did as the prince said, regardless of his wishes, and forced the Queen Mother to grant me a marriage. I admired the prince so much that I was willing to ruin the marriage that my aunt had planned for me for a long time. I didn't want to be his wife, but would rather be his concubine, just to be able to accompany him."
"How am I not obedient? As soon as I entered the palace, the prince's wife tricked me into owing 18,000 taels of debt and asked me to use 75 years of monthly salary to offset it. For the sake of the prince, I never complained and endured it silently. On the day of the royal hunt, the prince was surrounded by wolves. I rushed forward to block the prince and was torn apart by the wolves! I don't ask the prince to remember my kindness, I just hope that the prince can see my feelings for you!"
When the onlookers heard this, they began to whisper again.
"It turns out that this wound was caused by a wolf bite during the royal hunt."
"It's really commendable that a weak woman dared to rush into the wolf pack."
"In fact, she just likes the prince too much, and she hasn't done anything wrong. As a man, the prince is really losing his dignity by doing this."
"Yeah, even if you don't like her, you shouldn't treat her like this. Besides, she even rushed into the wolf pack to save the prince's life."
Everyone felt that Liao Yunfei was a little pitiful.
Especially the men present.
They would never refuse a woman like this who is devoted to them. It is a great thing for them.
Liao Yunfei felt happy when she heard everyone's discussion.
Hurry and drink the latte while it's hot.
"The prince has wrongly accused me of having an unclear relationship with Shen Chengjing, and he has been extremely cruel and ruthless to me. His purpose is not to divorce me, but to kill me! I don't have to stay with the prince, I just can't bear to leave, and I still have a little hope for him. If I knew that the prince hates me so much and wants me to die, I won't pester him." After Liao Yunfei finished speaking, two lines of tears rolled down her face, looking so pitiful.
Every word she said pushed Xiao Yan'an to the forefront of the storm of being heartless and disloyal.
Lord Jin secretly glanced at Xiao Yan'an.
Xiao Yanan looked furious.
However, he did not open his mouth to refute.
If what Liao Yunfei said was true, then the prince was indeed going too far.
"What kind of woman, after being falsely accused by her husband and having it known to everyone, can still have the nerve to live in this world?" she added with great sadness.
"The prince went a bit too far in this matter." Someone in the crowd whispered.
"Yeah, how can you treat a weak woman like this?"
"The prince shouldn't be such a person. When he was in the clinic, he was not arrogant at all. He helped to prepare medicine and read prescriptions to illiterate people. He made people feel kind and warm."
"But it's also true that he was so cruel and ruthless to his concubine."
Liao Yunfei was very satisfied with everyone's reaction.
