The Village Girl Who Jinxes Her Husband Is Filthy Rich

Chapter 1561 - 1561: Investigate!

The butler was stunned and asked in confusion,” Old Master, what do you mean?”

Liu Xinren smiled bitterly and said,” This time, we have offended the princess of Guguo. Moreover, in order to survive, those people from Lin Family Village pointed out on the spot that they went to the capital because someone ordered them! Now that Lord Dai has appeared in the Liu Residence, it means that someone has found out that this matter is related to me. It’s just that there’s not enough evidence, so they didn’t force me to go to the Ministry of Justice for a hearing!’

At this point, he sighed heavily and said,” But we might not be able to escape!’ His tone was filled with regret.

The butler was also worried. He asked his master,” Master, what did the Empress say?”

The empress he was referring to was naturally Liu Cairen.

Liu Xinren frowned and did not speak.

In the palace, he discussed countermeasures with his daughter on how to push all the responsibility to Xiao Jingyu.

However, what made him particularly worried was that Jiang Zhennan, Lin Yuelan, and His Majesty were not easy to fool.

However, regardless of whether they were easy to fool or not, for the sake of the Liu family and for the sake of his daughter in the palace, he had to take a gamble.

Then, he instructed the butler,” Butler, get ready. I’m going to the Ministry of Justice! ”

The butler was obviously surprised. He asked doubtfully,” But, Master, didn’t you just refuse to meet Lord Dai? Why…”

Butler Liu said,” You don’t understand. Go, arrange for a few people to go with Master!”

“Yes, sir!” The butler replied respectfully.

Ministry of Justice

Not long after Dai Lixin returned to the Ministry of Justice, someone came over to report,” Sir, Sir Liu from the Ministry of Works is here!”

Dai Lixin seemed to have expected it. He said without surprise,” Then invite him in.’

Liu Xinren was helped into the Ministry of Justice. Lord Dai immediately went up to him and said,” Lord Liu, you are not feeling well. Have a good rest! Why are you here at the Ministry of Justice?”

Liu Xinren coughed a few times. It’s fine!” Then, he changed the topic and asked,” May I know why you’ve come to my residence?”

When lord Dai heard this, he smiled and said,” Could it be that Lord Liu came to visit because of this?”

“That’s right!” Liu Xinren nodded.

When lord Dai said this, his expression became serious. He said,” Lord Liu, I wonder if you heard the news that someone broke into the prison of the Ministry of Justice last night. Moreover, the person who broke into the prison was not robbing people, but…” He stared sharply at Lord Liu and said sternly, “They went to kill.”

Lord Liu looked at the expression on Lord Dai’s face in shock. When he realized that there was no trace of him lying, he said in confusion, “This… How is this possible?” His voice was sharp, but it revealed some surprise, panic, and uneasiness!

Then, he felt that something was wrong and asked in confusion, “Then… Who were those people? What prison was broken into?”

What he meant was, did they find out the identity of the person who broke into the prison? Who was the person these people wanted to kill?

” We haven’t found out the identities of the people who broke into the prison,” the acting lord said.” They escaped. However, the people they wanted to silence were Lin Laosan’s family and villagers who had slandered and framed the princess! ”

When he heard that Lin Laosan’s family and the villagers of the Lin family village had been silenced, Lord Liu said in surprise,” What?”

In his heart, he was guessing who the suspect was.

He and Xiao Jingyu were the ones who planned and instructed the Lin family to sue Lin Yuelan in the capital.

Other than him, only Xiao Jingyu knew about this.

Therefore, if he didn’t send someone, then Xiao Jingyu must have sent someone.

When he thought of this, Lord Liu’s heart felt sour and bitter.

He and his daughter had originally planned to break into the prison and kill those people. However, his daughter had been demoted from one of the four concubines, and her power in the palace had also been taken away. On his side, because the prison had been strictly guarded, he did not have full confidence in sending people to break into the prison and kill them. Therefore, after thinking about it, the best way was to push all the responsibility to Xiao Jingyu.

However, before he could take action, Xiao Jingyu had already sent someone over.

Liu Xinren asked carefully,” Then those people in the prison…” Lord Dai said angrily,” They have all been silenced!”

“Then what about those prison raiders?” Liu Xinren asked again.

“They have all disappeared!” Lord Dai said casually.

“Disappeared?” Lord Liu’s eyes widened in disbelief.” The prison of the Ministry of Justice is strictly guarded. How did they disappear?”

When he asked this question, he was actually secretly relieved.

Because, to his understanding,” disappearing ” meant that the Ministry of Justice had failed to catch the culprit.

When Lord Dai heard Lord Liu’s question, he looked at Liu Xingren with confusion. He asked suspiciously,” Lord Liu, why do you seem so concerned about this?”

Liu Xinren was slightly stunned, but he immediately reacted and said stiffly,”

This concerns the dignity of the royal family, so I have to be concerned.” Lord Dai didn’t seem to suspect anything. Then, as if he had thought of something, he said,” Oh, right, Lord Liu. I received a report that your eldest nephew had been to Anding County. Is that true?”

Liu Xinren was stunned!

Then, he asked angrily,” Who said that? Bin ‘Er has never left the capital.

When did he go to An Ding County?”

Lin Family Village belonged to An Ding County.

By asking this question, Lord Dai was basically suspecting him of being involved in this incident..
