Chapter 207: House Raid



Chapter 207: House Raid

Yun Xiao, who had just entered the room, was slapped by his own Yun Yong, which made his eyes darken, but he did not say anything to explain.

He wanted to report to the authorities, but he couldn't bear to watch so many people in the Yun family being destroyed in his hands. Therefore, during this period of time, whenever Yun Xiao thought of the expression on the village chief's face when he held the few pounds of grain tightly in Ping'an Town that day, his heart was tormented.

As for what Yun's father said, he knew that he had donated all the silver he earned to the court. It was only for the title of imperial merchant. If he didn't have that title, he would definitely not donate an extra ounce of silver.

In fact, Yun Yong understood his eldest son very well. He knew that although Yun Yong had a business mind, he was not greedy for profit and would not do anything to make a profit. This was why for so long, he only let him manage the restaurant and did not give him other businesses.

Seeing that Yun Xiao did not explain, Yun Yong became more certain of his guess. He thought it was Yun Xiao who reported him for maliciously raising the price of grain, so he was so angry that he raised his hand to hit him again.

He had just raised his hand, and before he could lower it, several people were surrounded. The leading yamen runner glanced at Yun Xiao indifferently, then set his eyes on Yun Yong and spoke.

"Master Yun, two Young Masters Yun, please come with me to Jingzhao Prefecture..." He said with a wave of his hand, and the yamen runners behind him understood, so they stepped forward and lifted up the few people.

"This has nothing to do with me. It's all, it's all my father's doing. You, you let me go..."

Yun Huaiyuan was so scared when he saw himself being held up by the yamen runners that he almost wet his pants and shouted at the yamen runners who were holding him up.

Seeing that the yamen runner ignored him, he turned around and shouted at Yun Yong.

"Dad, tell them quickly that you and my brother did that together, it has nothing to do with me, tell them to let me go..."

Yun Yong looked at Yun Huaiyuan who was shouting and pushing everything onto himself, then glanced at Yun Xiao who was standing beside him with his head down and silent, his eyes full of complexity. He then looked up at the government office opposite and asked.

"Sir, I don't know what crime my Yun family has committed that you have to raid my Yun family with such fanfare. Our Yun family has just donated a large amount of silver to the court to help the court with disaster relief, and we even got the title of imperial merchant because of this. Aren't you afraid that people will say that you are destroying the court and rebelling against it because of money..."

In fact, Yun Yong was also frightened, which is why he said such words which were considered "treasonous".

However, the leading officer sneered when he heard Yun Yong's words, and then spoke.

"You are destroying the bridge after crossing it, and you are rebelling against the money. Ha, ha, your Yun family has just obtained the title of imperial merchant, but you have become so bold that you dare to beat and insult the princess of the dynasty in the street. Master Yun, do you know what crime it is to beat and insult the princess? It is a capital crime punishable by the extermination of nine generations of your family."

"Okay, stop talking nonsense to me. Just go to Jingzhao Prefecture and wait for His Majesty's decision. As for the finances confiscated from the Yun family, His Majesty has already issued an edict to return all of them to the national treasury..." As he said this, he waved his hand behind him.

Seeing this, the yamen runners behind rushed into each room and prepared to move things.

Seeing this, Yun Yong tried to struggle forward to stop it.

"Insulting the princess is impossible, sir. You must be mistaken, you must be mistaken. We, the Yun family, would never do such a thing..."

Yun Yong felt relieved when he heard that it was not because of malicious intention to raise the price of grain, but when he heard that the Yun family beat the princess in the street, he hurriedly began to explain.

At this moment, Yun Xiao's eyes darkened when he heard what Guan Cha said.

He knew that Han Yiyi was canonized as Princess Changning by the emperor because she saved refugees outside the city. Now, when he heard the official say that the Yun family beat the princess in the street, he thought that it must be his grandmother who saw Han Yiyi on the street.

Sure enough, the officer's next words confirmed their guess.

"Are you kidding me? Master Yun, just go to the Jingzhao Prefecture prison and ask the old lady of the Yun family and you'll find out..."

"Okay, take it away..."

All members of the Yun family were taken to the Jingzhao prison, including the servants and maids.

When Old Lady Yun saw that her son and grandson were also locked up, her eyes became even more desperate. Just as she was about to step forward and grab Yun Xiao's sleeve to speak, she was stopped by Yun Huaiyuan who had just entered.

"Grandmother, you, you please tell them quickly. Your grandson has no knowledge of the insults to the princess. It's all your fault. You please tell them quickly and let your grandson go..."

Madam Yun's hand was bandaged by the servant, but the bleeding was barely stopped. But when Yun Huaiyuan pulled it, the blood began to seep out again.

Seeing this, Yun Yong couldn't help but slap the man aside.

"You rebellious son, shut up right there..."

Yun Huaiyuan was slapped and fell to the ground. Seeing this, Mrs. Yun hurried forward to support him.

"Master, what are you doing? What Yuan'er said is true. What does beating the princess have to do with us..."

Yun Yong didn't want to hear the nonsense from the mother and son at this time, so he just yelled.

"If you don't shut up, I'm going to kill you right now..." Seeing that the two of them finally quieted down, he relaxed his expression and looked at Madam Yun.

"Mother, what is going on? How could you insult and beat a princess? That is a heinous crime punishable by the extermination of nine generations of your clan..."

At this time, Old Madam Yun ignored her son's question and stared at Yun Xiao.

"That little bitch became a princess, why didn't you tell me..."

When Yun Yong heard what Madam Yun said, he couldn't help but ask in confusion.

"Mother, who are you talking about..."

When Yun Xiao heard that his grandmother was still pushing the blame on others, his eyes were filled with coldness. However, he did not say anything. Instead, he quietly found a clean corner in the cell and sat down, closing his eyes slightly.

When Old Madam Yun saw Yun Xiao like this, she was both angry and furious, but when she thought of Han Yiyi's current identity, she had to let out a deep breath, calmed her expression, and then spoke again.

"I know that this time, it was grandma who was impulsive. Grandma apologizes to you and promises you that grandma will never again have a hard time with her and will never ask about your affairs with her again. You go and beg her to release all of our Yun family members. After you get out, if she still wants to marry you, grandma will personally arrange the wedding for you..."

After hearing what Old Madam Yun said, Yun Xiao slowly opened his eyes, but his eyes were full of coldness and disappointment.
