Chapter 1442 Maid's Fate 15
In fact, after the Zhou family sold the original body, it should have become the private property of the buyer. In Linlang's world, Linlang was originally the property of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, and now is the property of the Prince of An's Mansion.

Since they are all other people's properties, the Zhou family has no right to recognize Linlang and then ask Linlang to give them money, because Linlang is someone else's property, and Linlang's money should also belong to the owner. If Linlang wants to recognize the Zhou family and give them money, she should ask the owner, that is, King An, for permission, and cannot give money to the Zhou family without permission, otherwise the owner's property will be damaged.

Of course, this is reasonable, but in reality, most people sell their children to others, and then see that the children make money in wealthy families and come here to suck their blood, otherwise the wife of the Prince of Zhenguo would not have invited the Zhou family.

The Duke of Zhenguo and his wife have already taken into account the possibility that Linlang will not admit it, but it doesn't matter. When the case is brought to the government, the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion will show where Concubine Zhou was purchased from, and then the human trafficker will give testimony. The Duke of Zhenguo's mansion will then report to the government and support the human trafficker. The government will definitely certify that the Zhou family are Concubine Zhou's parents.

Of course, if the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion did not take action, the government would definitely not certify such evidence casually. After all, on one side is the prince's concubine, and on the other side is an ordinary person. The government will definitely stand on the side of the prince's concubine to avoid indirectly offending Prince An.

But no matter what happens to the Duke Zhenguo Mansion, the government will definitely stand on the side of it. After all, the Duke Zhenguo Mansion is so powerful that it cannot be compared with the prince's concubine who has no background.

There is no need to worry that Prince An will intervene. They have heard that Concubine Zhou is not very favored in the palace, and Prince An probably won't stand up for her. As long as Prince An doesn't stand up for her, how can Concubine Zhou defeat the power of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion?

Even if Prince An stepped forward, it was hard to say which side the government office would stand on. After all, the imperial concubine and the second prince were there in the palace. The people in the government office also had to weigh the issue of the second prince ascending to the throne and did not dare to offend the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.

Prince An is just an idle prince who will never become the emperor, so offending him is not a big deal. In this case, the government office in the capital may stand on the side of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, and it will be useless even if Prince An takes action.

After hearing the words of the person who brought them to the capital, the Zhou family felt relieved. After discussing it, Zhou's mother and grandmother lay down at the gate of Prince An's Mansion, crying and wailing, saying that Concubine Zhou of Prince An's Mansion did not recognize her parents and was extremely unfilial.

As mentioned before, the emperor was quite good to his youngest brother, so not only was the palace large, it was also in a good location. It was surrounded by princes and nobles. When the Zhou family made such a fuss, there were many people watching. Obviously, if it was not dealt with, what happened in Prince An's Palace would spread throughout the capital in less than a day.

The Prince An’s Mansion would definitely deal with it, and immediately someone was sent from the gate of the Prince An’s Mansion to notify the government office in the capital.

When the people in the capital heard that someone was causing trouble at the gate of the residence of Prince An, the emperor's most beloved brother, they naturally sent people to deal with it.

When the Zhou family saw the government officials coming, they were a little panicked. However, because Zhou’s grandfather had a good family background when he was young and had met some government officials, he was braver and stepped forward to explain the situation.

"We are not making a fuss, we just want to recognize the child, but she has become a noble and does not recognize us. We are anxious, that's why we are like this. I wonder if the official can let us meet Empress Zhou. If he can, it will be a great favor, and I will never forget it."

The people from the yamen said, "You can't make a scene in front of the prince's mansion. Do you know what this is? This is the prince's mansion. How dare you come here to make a scene? If the mansion sends a note to the yamen, saying that you are making trouble, then you have offended the prince and you will definitely be punished." The Zhou family was frightened by the threats from the yamen, and they looked at the person who brought them here helplessly.

Actually, they were people from a small place. If it weren't for the person who brought them here, they would never have dared to go to the prince's palace and make trouble. They wouldn't dare to do it even if they had a hundred guts. You know, before, they didn't even dare to stay in front of the county government office, for fear that the police in the government office would find them lingering at the gate and arrest them and lock them up for a few days.

I didn't even dare to stay at the gate of the county government, let alone a place like this.

The person sent by the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo, who was being watched by the Zhou family, understood that if he did not show up now, the Zhou family would not have the courage to proceed, so he immediately pulled the person from the Beijing government office aside, showed him the name card of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, and then said, "Concubine Zhou originally left our mansion. This family came to our mansion to find their relatives. The young master and his wife in our mansion are the most sympathetic to the poor. Seeing that their family is pitiful, they asked me to take them to the Prince An's Mansion to have a look. You can help them if you can."

When the people in the Beijing government saw that this man was actually from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, their attitude changed instantly.

The family of His Majesty's favorite concubine, the in-laws of the most powerful contender for the throne, and the family of princes and nobles, no matter which one of them is picked out, they are all existences that people dare not underestimate, so the people in the government office in the capital naturally put away their contempt and took it seriously.

However, these people were not stupid. They knew that Prince An's Mansion was not easy to deal with, so they immediately said that they would go back and ask the prefect for instructions to see how the prefect would deal with it.

People of the lower class like them would not get involved in this kind of fight between gods, and let the prefect worry about it.

Yes, the people in the yamen also knew that this was a fight between gods. After all, the Zhou family came to Prince An's Mansion to look for their relatives, so why would the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion interfere? They wanted to force Concubine Zhou to recognize this family. Even a fool could see that the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion was not on good terms with Concubine Zhou. After all, the Zhou family was obviously not easy to deal with. If they asked Concubine Zhou to recognize this family, no one knew what would happen.

After hearing what the yamen said, the people in the Zhenguo Mansion knew that once their family got involved, it would be a matter that ordinary yamen runners would not dare to interfere in, so they naturally agreed to let them go back and ask their superiors for instructions on how to deal with the matter.

The people from the Beijing government office immediately spoke to the gatekeeper of Prince An's Mansion, saying that they would go back and ask their superiors how to deal with the matter, and then left.

They were called over by people from Prince An's Mansion, but they didn't dare to leave the Zhou family behind and continue making trouble in front of the Prince's Mansion without saying hello to them.

The gatekeeper of Prince An's Mansion saw that the people from the Beijing government had come, but they did not deal with the Zhou family. Instead, they said that they had to ask their superiors for instructions before they could get rid of this group of people. At that moment, he was puzzled and thought that the people from the Beijing government had lost their minds. They had to ask their superiors for instructions on how to deal with such a small matter? Wouldn't it be enough to take the family away and lock them up for a few days? If such a thing happened at the doorstep of a prince or noble in the capital, and the people from the Beijing government did not deal with it immediately, but instead went back to ask their superiors for instructions, then they would be dealt with by the prince or noble family. After all, how high is the official of the Beijing prefect? ​​How dare he not listen to the prince or noble? Are they tired of living?

Seeing the attitude of the people from the Beijing government office, the gatekeeper of Prince An's mansion immediately sent someone to find Prince An and told him what happened in front of the mansion.
