Night Watchman: Linked to the Legend of Sword and Fairy game, strongly promoting Huaiqing.

Because her father, Prince Yu, had more than one wife, her mother, the Princess.

There were also several concubines.

She was simply the legitimate daughter of a princess, the highest in status.

Therefore, she didn't have much of an opinion about Li Xuan taking a concubine.

Princess Pingyang asked, "Brother Li, could you tell me who the concubine you are going to marry is?"

Li Xuan said: "Xu Lingyue from the Xu family."

Princess Pingyang frowned slightly, then quickly remembered something and said, "Is it Xu Pingzhi's daughter who was framed and imprisoned?"

The case of the Xu family losing tax money has become a hot topic of discussion.

Princess Pingyang had naturally heard of it as well.

Li Xuan said, "Yes, it is Xu Pingzhi's daughter, Xu Lingyue."

"I saved their family back then, and they promised their daughter from the frontier to me in marriage."

Pingyang exclaimed, "The Xu family is truly clever and has great foresight."

Xu Pingzhi's family must have seen Li Xuan's potential, so they took the opportunity to use the pretext of repaying a debt of gratitude to betroth their daughter to Li Xuan.

Looking back now, it seems that their family really had good judgment.

Because Li Xuan has already shown tremendous potential.

Barring unforeseen circumstances, the future holds limitless potential.

The Xu family, on the other hand, has found a powerful backer.

Princess Pingyang said, "Brother Li, I have no objection."

After all, the marriage between their daughter and her had already taken place before she met Li Xuan.

By all accounts, she was still a third party!

So they felt bad about breaking them up.

Besides, she could accept being just a concubine.

That's when.

"Oh!"

There was a noise outside.

It was accompanied by an arrogant voice: "You're courting death, how dare you provoke this young master?"

"Guards, beat him to death!"

Li Xuan and Princess Pingyang exchanged a glance, their brows furrowing.

Princess Pingyang stood up and said, "Let's go out and take a look."

48. The eldest son of the Earl of Pingyuan committed murder to cover up his crime and was involved in a human trafficking organization.

"Let's go out and take a look."

Princess Pingyang stood up and said.

"Okay." Li Xuan also stood up.

The two walked out side by side.

Go outside.

I saw a young master arrogantly directing several servants to beat up a commoner.

The civilian lay on the ground, covered in wounds and blood.

"You audacious commoner, you dared to attempt to assassinate me! You deserve to die!"

"Kill him. I'll take responsibility if he dies."

Liu Hang, the eldest son of the Marquis of Pingyuan, revealed a ferocious expression.

The surrounding dignitaries were alarmed and gathered around to watch.

However, since they recognized the eldest son of the Marquis of Pingyuan, none of them chose to speak.

After all, the Liang faction, led by the Minister of War and the Earl of Pingyuan, is now arrogant and powerful.

Even if Liu Hang, the eldest son of the Marquis of Pingyuan, was in the wrong, no one dared to provoke him.

Princess Pingyang frowned upon seeing this.

"Ok?"

Li Xuan's starry eyes narrowed, flashing with a cold light.

Because the young master before them was none other than Liu Hang, the eldest son of the Earl of Pingyuan.

"stop!"

At this moment, Princess Pingyang parted her lips slightly and shouted.

"What are you doing, injuring and killing people in broad daylight?"

She looked furious and pointed at the thugs, shouting.

Upon hearing this, Liu Hang's expression darkened as he looked over.

His expression turned cold upon seeing Princess Pingyang.

Because Princess Pingyang's father, Prince Yu, was a political enemy and mortal foe of her father, Earl Pingyuan, and others.

Princess Pingyang pointed at Liu Hang and said, "Liu Hang, tell your men to stop immediately."

"Otherwise, I will take this matter to the authorities. You committed murder in the street, and you will be in deep trouble."

Upon hearing this, Liu Hang's expression turned ugly.

But he sneered, "This man attempted to assassinate me. I am the son of an earl and hold an official position. According to the law, I should be executed."

"Even if we kill him now, what then?"

His father and Prince Yu were at odds, so naturally he wouldn't give up just because of a small threat from Princess Pingyang.

Otherwise, what will outsiders think?

Could it be that he was afraid of Princess Pingyang, and that his father, Earl Pingyuan, was afraid of Prince Yu?

"Keep fighting!"

"kill him!"

He ignored Princess Pingyang and spoke arrogantly.

"Stop it!"

Princess Pingyang said angrily.

"Liu Hang, even if this person attempted to assassinate you, he should be executed; but that still requires interrogation by the yamen and the Ministry of Justice."

"Who knows if you're framing this person or not? You're trying to frame them!"

"Besides, even if he wasn't innocent, the Ministry of Justice should carry out the 15-stroke execution. What authority do you have to carry it out on his behalf?"

Princess Pingyang finished speaking.

The people around started discussing it.

"Yes!"

“Princess Pingyang is right.”

"Even if someone deserves to be executed, they still need to be interrogated by the government and the execution should be carried out by the Ministry of Justice."

“Liu Hang, the eldest son of the Marquis of Pingyuan, has become too arrogant and overstepped his bounds.”

"Keep your voice down. The most powerful and influential people, such as Uncle Yuan, are not to be trifled with."

"But you can't just kill people in the street. Such arrogance and domineering behavior is not afraid of being impeached."

……

The voices of the people around him reached Liu Hang's ears.

His face darkened.

But what Princess Pingyang said is true.

If he had been assassinated, he could have easily fought back and killed the attacker.

But now that the murderer hasn't been killed, the only option is to apprehend him and hand him over to the authorities for interrogation.

Once the decision is made, the Ministry of Justice will carry out the death penalty.

Now, he no longer has the right to kill.

With Princess Pingyang's threat and so many people watching, Liu Hang, though unwilling, could only swallow his anger.

"Hmph! You're lucky!"

"Take this man to the yamen immediately!"
