Chapter 314 Major Sin
Yu Linlang returned to the Su Mansion and first walked around her parents' yard. When she saw that there were some things missing, she told the servants to buy some more.

After returning to his Tianbao Garden and having a simple lunch, he has been flipping through half of the Xuanyin score in the room.

Fortunately, he did not enter a state of trance in cultivation. Soon, he heard chaotic footsteps coming from outside the yard.

The maid hurriedly opened the door and called out "Miss".

Yu Linlang was sitting by the window and when she looked up, she saw Chi Tu and Wei Ling and a few others walking into the courtyard with stern faces.

"Something happened." Chi Tu frowned when he saw her, "Don't worry, my uncle has already rushed over to deal with it."

Yu Linlang laughed, "You look more nervous than I do. What's the matter?"

Chi Tu suddenly brought Wei Ling to visit, probably not to discuss the Jin family case with her.

That case wasn't enough to make Chi Tu and the others look so solemn.

"Miss Yu, there is an old man named Xia from Wuhu County, Weizhou Prefecture, who claims to be your grandfather. Do you know him?"

Yu Linlang nodded calmly, "Yes, I know him. He's my grandfather. What's the matter?"

"He just went to Old Madam Yu's birthday party and made a scene. He said he wanted to confront you and ask you why you were planning to kill him."

"The old man said that in order to recognize your ancestors and enter the Yu family tree, you didn't recognize your adoptive mother and maternal grandfather. You also... in order to get rid of him, you sent people to ambush him on the road to Beijing, and almost killed him."

Chi Tu pursed his lips and nodded, "You know, your grandmother's birthday banquet is today, and there are many guests in the mansion. Now all the guests have accompanied the old man to the Jingzhao government office, saying that they want to sue you for the crime of being unfilial!"

Yu Linlang slowly dropped the book she was holding onto the table. "Grandfather said, I hired someone to ambush him? I want to kill him?"

"Yes."

Yu Linlang was silent for a long time before she sneered, "He said I wanted to kill him?"

"Heh." Yu Linlang smiled and lowered her eyelids slightly, "Are they all in the Jingzhao Prefecture government office now?"

"Yes." Wei Ling looked anxious. "Miss, this is a big deal. Many people are watching outside the government office. If you can't handle it well, your reputation..."

Yu Linlang's eyes were slightly red, and after a while, she laughed at herself, "He really wants me to die."

"Girl." Wei Ling sensed that she was in a low mood and couldn't help but reach out and hold her arm. "Don't worry, we all believe in you. If anything happens, we, we will handle it together."

Chi Tu sighed and said in a deep voice, "The worst thing is that the Princess of Guo State has gone crazy. This matter has nothing to do with her, but she came to the Jingzhao government office with the third princess Anyang, saying that she wanted to seek justice for the old man of the Xia family."

"Yu...Miss, you have to be prepared. Pack up quickly and let's go together." Chi Tu grabbed her hand and pressed it hard.

Yu Linlang's expression had returned to normal by now, and she gave her a faint smile, "Don't worry, I'm fine."

The group walked out of the mansion under the worried gazes of the servants in the Su Mansion.

Steward Su solemnly ordered the servants at the door, "Go find the Second Young Master and tell him about this."

When Yu Linlang and the others arrived at the gate of the government office, they were really shocked by the people surrounding them in three layers.

Chi Tu's expression suddenly turned dark, and he cursed in a low voice, "If there weren't people with ulterior motives fanning the flames, I don't believe so many people could have gathered in such a short time."

"No need to be angry with a villain, just go and see." Yu Linlang's face was calm without any ripples.

Even when meeting a group of inquiring gazes, he remained calm and composed.

Chi Tu waved his hand and asked the guards to separate the crowd.

As the group of people walked through the crowd and reached the door, they heard a hoarse voice shouting, "Kill this conscienceless little bitch. Your grandparents have worked hard to raise you for many years, and now you just don't recognize you. You even hired someone to kill your grandparents just to get close to them! Shameless thing."

Yu Linlang glared at him coldly and pointed with her finger, "Drag him out." Without saying a word, Wei Ling squeezed into the crowd, pulled the howling strong man out of the crowd with one hand and threw him in front of Yu Linlang.

"Now you don't have to bear any responsibility for spreading rumors? You caused trouble at the gate of the government office, what's your punishment?"

"According to the law, those who spread rumors and cause trouble will be severely beaten with ten sticks."

The strong man was anxious, "I said the truth, why did you hit me?"

"How should we deal with people who repeatedly spread rumors and defamed others in public?"

"If the victim pursues the matter, the punishment can be increased to thirty lashes."

Yu Linlang nodded, "I think he has a mean mouth, so there's no need to punish him with a stick. I'll just give him thirty slaps as a lesson."

As soon as Chi Tu glanced at them, the Jingzhao Prefecture yamen runners immediately stood at attention and walked forward. Without saying a word, they tied up the troublemaker and started spanking him in the face with a stick.

For a moment, there was complete silence inside and outside. Those who originally wanted to join in the fun all huddled in the crowd, not daring to make a sound.

Yu Linlang walked slowly into the lobby, glanced around indifferently, and raised her eyebrows slightly.

There are quite a few acquaintances.

This lobby is almost like a vegetable market.

In addition to Yu Shoudao's family, there were many other guests present, all standing behind the yamen runners.

Only two princesses were sitting in the hall, sipping their tea slowly and looking towards her.

Princess Guo smiled, "Miss Yu is really amazing. She gave us a warning as soon as she arrived. You can still remain so calm after entering the court. You are really worthy of being like that."

Yu Linlang smiled at her slowly, "The princess is thoughtful. However, the acting skills of the people she arranged are too exaggerated. Not only does it greatly reduce the effect, but it also makes the host family look particularly stupid."

Princess Guo's expression suddenly changed, and she slammed the table, "How dare you!"

Princess Anyang was frightened by her sister's behavior. She reached out and gently pulled her. She turned to look at Yu Linlang, looked her up and down, and saw that her face was extremely ordinary. She couldn't help but feel a little confused.

Why did Guoguo hate her so much? She was just an ordinary woman who wouldn't make any splash if thrown into a crowd.

"Miss Yu, please don't misunderstand. I called you here today because your grandfather sued for hiring a killer. I need you to come and cooperate. There is no need to say anything else." Princess Anyang turned her head and looked at Ximen Bugui, "Master Ximen, the trial can begin."

"Why don't you kneel down?" Guo Guo suddenly sneered, "Are you trying to defy the law?"

Ximen Bugui's face looked very ugly.

At this time, Mrs. Huo was supported by Yu and slowly walked forward. She took out a emerald and pearl-studded hairpin and put it into Yulinlang's hair.

Mrs. Huo was shocked when she saw it, "Mother, you?"

The old lady actually put the gift from the emperor on Yu Linlang’s head?

"This is the Jade Brocade Light Hairpin given by the Queen Mother. You are allowed to wear it into the palace and you don't have to kneel down to bow to the Queen Mother."

Princess Guo's expression changed slightly and she clenched the cup in her hand.

"Princess, everyone has their own expertise. It would be better to let Lord Ximen handle the trial. Before the truth comes out, you and I are just bystanders, so there is no need to say anything more to Lord Ximen, don't you agree?"

Princess Guo smiled with a fake smile, "I heard that Madam Huo recently recognized her granddaughter and she really loves her very much."
