Chapter 11
Zhang Taifu has a high status among civil servants, where is he not being praised?When was someone pointing at his nose and scolding him like that?He immediately frowned, stretched out his hand to point at Xiao Yu, and scolded angrily: "You are not young, but your tone is not young!"

Xiao Yu looked at him without changing his face: "Master Zhang, why is he so angry? Could it be that I'm not telling the truth? My father has just passed away, and his bones are not yet cold. You are blocking the gate of my palace, and you are aggressive. This is what you say benevolence and morality?"

"I'll give you face and ask you to pay respects first and then talk about business, but you start to attack me as a child. You guys are really kind. It turns out that all the important officials in the court have such faces. No wonder it's no wonder."

No wonder she didn't say anything, but the commotion here was so big that it had already attracted a large crowd of onlookers.

People are always like this, they have a natural sympathy for the weak, and they will subconsciously favor the weak side.

Xiao Yu stood alone at the door, followed by an equally thin maidservant, but facing a large group of vicious civil and military officials.

That aggressive posture really made people feel a little too much.

As soon as their father died, they bullied them. The word "no wonder" fell into the ears of the people, and it was automatically extended to various meanings.

Anyway, it's not a good thing to say.

The common people couldn't help pointing and whispering to this group of people, and immediately the expressions of several adults changed.

The prime minister looked at Xiao Yu with a slight change in his eyes, changing his previous contemptuous attitude.

Mr. Zhang was humiliated like this, his fingers trembling in anger, he didn't know what to say, although Xiao Yu's words were ugly, but every sentence made sense, he was unable to refute for a while.

Xiao Yu coughed lightly, and Hong Xiu immediately stepped forward nervously: "Your Majesty, your cold is still not healed. Standing here and blowing the wind may make you feel hot again when you go back!"

Xiao Yu waved his hands with a pale face, and his voice weakened: "It's okay, it's not easy for you adults to come here in cold weather, I always have to give them an explanation."

"You little boy, don't be coy here!"

Another official stood up. He had a dark complexion, big eyes, but thin lips, and the corners of his mouth were slightly drawn down. He was also a difficult person to get along with.

Xiao Yu glanced at it, and immediately confirmed the identity of this person in his heart——Ge Zhuangzhuang, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, because of the homonym, he was nicknamed——Ge Zhuangzhuang.

Xiao Yu took a look at his tall and thick body, and he was convinced that he was indeed strong.

"What do you mean by imprisoning the third prince in the sky prison without permission? Tianhuang Guizhou, how can you execute the punishment at will? You also kidnapped the eighth prince. It is an unforgivable crime! We are here to ask the crime!"

As soon as Ge Zhuangzhuang said this, the prime minister's eyelids jumped, you idiot!Who was it that called him?Now that the common people are clearly looking towards Xiao Yu, you're really hopeless if you bump headlong into it!

He silently stepped back to the side, letting Ge Zhuangzhuang step forward.

Ge Zhuangzhuang squeezed in the back just now, and he still felt that it was not enough. Seeing the prime minister voluntarily giving way, he gave the prime minister a grateful look.

Xiao Yu saw the small movements of the two of them, and smiled without saying a word.

Ge Zhuangzhuang looked up and saw her smiling, and he was even more upset: "What are you laughing at? Do you still have the face to smile?"

Xiao Yu sighed, seemingly helpless, "Master Ge, did you find out the ins and outs of the matter before you came? Do you know what the Third Prince did?"

"What does he do has nothing to do with you, it's your turn to teach him a lesson?"

Ge Zhuangzhuang said disapprovingly: "Last night, seeing that the third prince hadn't returned all night, the abolished prince sent someone to inquire and found out that the third prince had been imprisoned. He summoned us overnight and begged me to help, that's why I—"

"Ah."

Xiao Yu gave a short sneer, and glanced at everyone with sharp eyes: "So everyone is just hearsay, and then came to my palace early in the morning to make trouble?"

"This……"

"Could it be that you have been wronged?"

Master Zhang stared at her angrily, wishing he could spit on her face.

Xiao Yu's expression turned cold, and she took a step forward. She looked down at the crowd without saying a word, but there was an inexplicable coercion.

Ge Zhuangzhuang looked at her face like frost and snow, eyes like cold stars, suddenly stuck, "I...I..."

Xiao Yu raised his hand to stop his words, his voice sank, and he said in a calm manner: "The third prince tried to drown the eighth prince by the ice lake in the west courtyard of my palace yesterday, so he smashed a stone on the ice for this reason. It’s a big hole, all adults must know how cold it was yesterday.”

"During the resistance, the eighth prince was pulled by the third prince by the hair and dragged to the lake. The eighth prince was injured on the scalp and bled a lot. If I and the maid hadn't gone in time, the eighth prince would already be an ice corpse. Could it be that Are you all satisfied? The third prince is the son of the empress, who is delicate and fleshy, and the eighth prince is born lowly? Don't forget, the eighth prince is the heir apparent chosen by the late emperor!"

The last sentence was so loud that the adults in the front couldn't help but take a step back and looked at each other.

"How could this be?"

"real or fake?"

"I don't believe it. This is just your side story. What evidence do you have?"

A man in armor with the appearance of a general stepped forward, raised his chin, and squinted at Xiao Yu, as if Xiao Yu owed him [-] million.

There was a scar at the end of his eye, extending from the corner of the eye to the temple, making him look even more brutal.

"The third prince is locked in the sky prison. Unless you have other evidence, I can only invite you to live in the sky prison for a few days!"

Xiao Yu glanced at him. This man is just the commander of the city guard army. He usually walks around the Prince Regent's Palace when he sees it. Now that he is so stubborn, someone will probably support him. As for who is supporting him...

"You want evidence, it's easy to handle. Hongxiu, go and invite the eighth prince, the government doctor, and the lady and servant who were present yesterday."

"Yes!"

Hongxiu bowed, glanced at Jiang Wei, the commander of the city guard army, and turned to enter the palace.

Seeing Xiao Yu's confidence, the others couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. They shouldn't have listened to the abolished prince's advice and came to trouble the prince in a moment of enthusiasm.
The Eighth Prince came very quickly, he got up when Xiao Yu woke up, but he kept listening to the movement outside and didn't move around, when Bai Lian went to call him, he washed his face and put on his clothes before coming out.

On the way, he met Hong Xiu, who said a few words to him, and then he hurried to the gate of the palace.

"My son—"

As soon as Xiao Yu turned around, the two of them looked at each other. The Eighth Prince pursed his lips. He slowed down, tried to straighten his back, and stopped when he reached the position beside Xiao Yu. "My lords, what the prince said It's the truth, if you don't believe me, the wound on my Highness's head is still there, you can come and check it."

"Really? Then the subordinate will be offended."

With a flash of light in Jiang Wei's eyes, he stepped forward and grabbed the bun of the Eighth Prince's hair when he lowered his head slightly.
