Yuan Chen took her hand and sat down, and then told her everything that happened in the palace.
Xiao Jialan was shocked after hearing this. She said: "Taifu Zhao actually wanted to use this as a blackmail to make Sister Ruyi become a widow for Zhao Jie. It is simply ridiculous.
It would not be a pity if his grandson Na Dexing died a hundred times, but he still wants to harm sister Ruyi, which is simply disgusting."
Xiao Jialan was very angry. Although Mr. Zhao was a clear-minded person, he was unavoidably partial in dealing with Zhao Jie.
It's true that the older you get, the more confused you become.
Seeing that she was very angry, Yuan Chen hurriedly coaxed her and said: "Don't be angry, your elder brother naturally didn't agree to such an unreasonable request.
So I have already sued Zhao Jie, but not to be outdone, Taifu Zhao also sued Mu Rufeng. Originally, my father wanted to put me on trial for this matter, but Taifu Zhao got in the way and handed the matter over to Prince Ping."
Xiao Jialan's eyes widened: "Prince Ping is responsible for hearing the case? Will there be any improvement in this matter if we leave it to him?"
Yuan Chen held her hand and smiled and said: "Don't worry, although my father has left this matter to him for trial, I have the power of supervision and he dare not make trouble.
Besides, I have already thought of a countermeasure, so you can rest assured that neither Mu Rufeng nor your sister Ruyi will be fine."
Xiao Jialan's eyes lit up after hearing these words, and she nodded. She believed that Yuan Chen would be able to resolve the matter safely with his intelligence.
Ye Jinming asked: "How is Ruyi?"
Xiao Jialan snorted and said: "I don't know where Zhao Jie got these dirty things. They are very powerful. The doctor has already come to see her. Sister Ruyi is fine. It's just that the medicine is too strong and she is not awake yet."
Yuan Chen asked: "Tell me what happened in Taihe Building at that time."
Xiao Jialan then told what happened in detail.
After hearing this, Yuan Chen raised his eyebrows and said, "Is it the young lady from the Wang family who found out that Ruyi was kidnapped?"
Xiao Jialan said: "She told me, but I don't know if she discovered it. As soon as I went up and downstairs, Sister Ruyi disappeared.
Fortunately, Mu Rufeng found it in time, otherwise the consequences would have been disastrous."
Yuan Chen frowned and said, "Tomorrow, you come with me and we will visit the Wang family."
Xiao Jialan asked: "But do you want Miss Wang to be a witness?"
Yuan Chen nodded and said: "Taifu Zhao said that it was Miss Ruyi who took the initiative to get into Zhao Jie's carriage and refused to admit the robbery.
The servant in the Zhao family must have been instructed by Taifu Zhao, and he will definitely give false evidence when the time comes, so we have to find witnesses to prove that Zhao Jie committed the murder."
Xiao Jialan frowned and said, "But I heard that the Wang family has a very good relationship with Taifu Zhao. Are they willing to offend Taifu Zhao and come out to testify?"
Wang Qingtong's grandfather had a close relationship with Taifu Zhao. They both came from scholarly families and were noble and famous people.
Once the Wang family comes forward, it means that they have lost face with the Zhao family, and the relationship between the two families has been broken.
The Wang family has always been prudent in the capital and has not participated in partisan struggles. Now that a murder case is involved, the Wang family is afraid that their innocence will be soiled.
Of course, she did not doubt Wang Qingtong. If Wang Qingtong really witnessed what happened, she would naturally be willing to testify.
But the family behind her may not let her come forward.
Yuan Chen said, "We'll find out tomorrow if we go check out their Wang family's reputation."
As he spoke, he said to Ye Jinming: "Go back and rest first. There are still many things that you need to do tomorrow."
Seeing that he had no intention of leaving, Ye Jinming asked, "Where is His Highness the Crown Prince?"
Yuan Chen said: "I don't need you to take care of me. If you want to save your sister, just listen to me."
The corners of Ye Jinming's lips twitched fiercely, this shameless man knew how to threaten him.
But at this time, he really needed Yuan Chen to worry about it, so it was better not to make him angry.
So the wise man stood up and warned: "Don't go too far."
