Who was Zhang Yingzi? He was the one who held the sword of the late emperor, Shang Fangjian. He had always been a selfless and impartial person. Even the Emperor would dare to speak out in front of him!

He cupped his fists towards the direction of the imperial city and said, "State Duke Xiao's words are wrong. Could it be that the entire world belongs to the Emperor? Where did this come from?"

"…" Zhang Yingzhi was indeed a stone in the toilet. He was stinky and tough, but he didn't fear Xiao Zhenhai's power. With a single word, he stopped Xiao Zhenhai's words.

Xiao Zhenhai cursed in his heart, "Old man, I want to capture my son and send him to the Ministry of Justice. He has just returned from the battlefield and rendered meritorious services to the imperial government, which is why he was conferred the title of Heavenly Treasure General by the Emperor.

Xiao Zhenhai wasn't an ordinary person. How could he be scared by Zhang Xiaozhi's few words?

"Great Master, I, Xiao He, have done my job properly. I have done it fair and square. If you try to capture me, you will be framed!" Xiao He was young and full of vigor. He had always been praised and praised. How could he have suffered such grievances? He would not easily obey Zhang Yingzhi's request to the Ministry of Justice.

"Does it count as the general's dereliction of duty for the capable soldiers of the young duke to use the name of the Xiao family's army to commit adultery and plunder?" Can I ask the young duke to head over to the Board of Justice and investigate? The closeness of the Xiao father and son did not cause Zhang to retreat. His words were still as sonorous and powerful as before.

What?

"This is impossible!" Xiao He immediately denied it. "The Xiao family's army has always been strict with their discipline and strict military laws. My capable soldiers will definitely not break the law."

"Wouldn't it be clear if it's true that the young duke has accompanied me to the Board of Justice?" If they really don't want to go, then others will suspect that the young duke is praising himself for his military exploits and isn't putting the Emperor's Board of Justice in his eyes anymore. " Zhang Jingzhi looked at Xiao He with a selfless expression that was as if he had nothing to discuss.

"Father, your son wants to personally investigate and prove that our Xiao Clan Army is not like this kind of scoundrel!" Xiao He felt very wronged in his heart. If he was to be escorted to the Ministry of Justice for questioning like a criminal, there was no way that he could put down his pride.

He was the grand Xiao He, the great general of the Heavenly Treasures Palace known as the Little War God!

If this news were to spread out, wouldn't he be utterly domineering!?

"Does this mean that the young duke isn't willing to go to the Board of Justice?" Zhang Yingzhi asked coldly.

"Of course not. My second brother is a wise man, and he has rendered outstanding military merits for the imperial government. How could he be captured so easily?" Xiao Shan was naturally unwilling to accept this.

Xiao Zhenhai judged the situation. Firstly, he knew Zhang Yingzhi, and since he had personally come, he would not return empty-handed. Secondly, Zhang Xiaohai had just called himself a man with military merits that had fallen on the head of the Xiao family.

"My son, Xiao He, has always been clean and easy going. He has never done anything that goes beyond his boundaries, served the Imperial Court, and was completely loyal to the Emperor! The Xiao family's military has always been strict with their laws and regulations. If there is really the case of adultery and plundering that Great Master Zhang spoke of, it means that Xiao He is at a disadvantage in governing the army. I, Xiao Zhenhai, will not forgive them.

Xiao Zhenhai's words shocked everyone present. Xiao Shan and Xiao Hu stepped forward and said, "Father!"

"Old master!" Madam Xiao's heart trembled. Xiao He was her most beloved son.

Xiao He also looked toward Xiao Zhenhai.

"However, if we find out that this matter was wrongly accused of my son's crime, then what should we do about it, Master Zhang?" Would you be willing to give me a head? " Xiao Zhenhai looked at Zhang Jingzhi with an oppressing gaze.

Poison Scorpion was indeed a Poison Scorpion, not willing to eat any losses!

When Xiao He heard this, he already understood his father's intention. This time, he was going to protect the dignity of the Xiao family and not allow anyone to undermine the status of the Duke of Xiao.

Even though he was a person with a treasured sword, Zhang Xiaoqiao was also sweating profusely because of Xiao Zhenhai's aggressive aura.

In the end, Zhang Xiaozhi clasped his hands together. "Since the prince wants to offer the young duke's head as a tribute to the emperor, then this official will have no choice but to hand it over as his head." He was also not afraid of death.

For a moment, the Xiao Family Palace's entrance was filled with swords and crossbows, "Good! Master Zhang will never be able to keep up with his words! "

"Then young duke, please follow me to the Board of Justice for an interrogation!" Zhang Yingdao.

The two guards then went forward and escorted Xiao He to the Ministry of Justice.

Seeing his son's handsome and tall figure leaving with Zhang Yingdao, Xiao Zhenhai suddenly clenched his fists. His eyes slowly narrowed, revealing a trace of danger.

Since Xiao He was suddenly taken away by the Board of Justice, the Xiao Clan naturally didn't have the mood to host a banquet and left in groups of twos and threes.

Xiao Zhenhai quickly walked back into the main hall. Madam Xiao quickly walked over and asked, "Master, what do we do now? If we really find out that there was a case of adultery and looting, would we really pay respect to the Emperor's head? "

"Humph!" Xiao Zhen Hai coldly snorted and said, "My Xiao family's head is not so easy to take off. I said it because I wanted to take it off."

"But, has anything happened to second brother when he was taken to the Ministry of Justice?" Xiao Shan was extremely worried for his little brother's safety.

"In the entire capital, no one would dare to do anything to my son. Today, it was all because of the presence of the princes. What I need to do now is to see what's going on. I've sent Duo Kun to investigate.

After hearing Xiao Zhenhai's words, the rest of the Xiao family felt relieved and prepared to wait for news.

Xiao Zhenhai asked, "Where's Rou Er?"

"Father." Xiao Rou had already changed her clothes and came out again. At this moment, she was snuggling by Madam Xiao's side. The hostility in her body had completely disappeared. Her face was flushed red like a young girl who was in love.

"Did Ya'er really not go to your place today to get Lian Ru Yue's clothes?" Xiao Zhenhai looked at her and asked.

Xiao Rou's face reddened as she heard this. She lowered her head and said, "I can't hide anything from father."

Xiao Zhenhai frowned. Xiao Rou was still young, so he naturally didn't understand the complicated situation he was in. However, he couldn't bear to see her so happy.

Now, he had to protect his fourth prince, because protecting his daughter was the same as protecting his own daughter.

"What exactly happened today? Now tell it to me. " Xiao Zhen Hai said.

Xiao Rou was slightly embarrassed as she recounted her plan for today with Lian Shiya.

When Xiao Zhenhai heard this, his face revealed a trace of indifference. "Ya Er has surpassed Lan Lan in this aspect."

"I don't know how I got onto the bed in the Warm Pavilion. I only remember that I seemed to have been knocked unconscious, but I didn't manage to see that person clearly. When I woke up, he seemed to be in a daze, as if he had eaten something. However, father, you promised your daughter not to investigate, okay? His Highness had already … Said she was going to marry me. "

Xiao Zhenhai knew what his daughter was thinking. He sighed and said, "The Fourth Prince is a man that can support the heavens. He promised you that he would marry you."

Today, the fourth prince looked as if he had been bewitched by something, but after a few hours of investigation, nothing could be found.

Xiao Rou blushed, feeling increasingly that the Fourth Prince was better than the Eighth Prince.

"Your plans are so thorough, yet Lian Rue is finally able to escape unscathed. She even switched you out. This shows how powerful this person is. You must not underestimate her in the future." Xiao Zhenhai said to his two sons.

If Lian Ruoyue knew that the great Xiao Zhenhai actually started to value her, who knew what kind of feelings she would have.
