The Emperor's heart is won, she sits on the Phoenix Throne! The Divine Physician's Eldest

Chapter 235 She's too arrogant!

yamen.

Zhang Laosan and his wife are kneeling on the ground.

Chen Jiang sat in the courtroom.

Although Song Siyao was involved in the case, she was of noble status and was seated.

The entrance was crowded with onlookers who had come from the milk tea shop to the government office.

Moreover, there are more people here than in front of the milk tea shop before.

The twist in today's case is astonishing, and everyone is very curious about the final outcome.

At the same time, they also want to see the real bad guys get the punishment they deserve.

"My lord, Princess Hongjin has arrived."

At this moment, the yamen runners brought Wei Hongjin in.

"Lord Chen, how dare you bring me, the princess, to the yamen! You must give me an explanation today, or I will not let you off lightly!"

As soon as Wei Hongjin entered the yamen, he started shouting loudly.

This wasn't her first time at the government office; she had been punished here before for cheating on the academy's entrance exam.

She hated Chen Jiang to the core, so naturally she didn't give him a friendly look.

Her expression darkened even more when she saw Song Siyao as soon as she entered, and she coldly questioned, "What? Are you all ganging up on me again today?"

Chen Jiang, his face grim, pointed at the two members of the Zhang family and asked, "Princess Hongjin, do you know these two people?"

Wei Hongjin glanced at the two people, then quickly looked away, answering impatiently, "I don't know them."

She looked at Chen Jiang with some anger, "Lord Chen invited me here just to identify people? Now that I've identified them, can I leave?"

She finished speaking and turned to leave.

Chen Jiang shouted, "Stop!"

The constables immediately blocked Wei Hongjin's path.

"Lord Chen, how dare you block my path?" Wei Hongjin questioned angrily.

“Princess Hongjin, I invited you here today because this person accused you of instigating him and his wife to poison their son and frame Princess Youfeng. The truth is still unclear, so you cannot leave yet,” Chen Jiang said.

Wei Hongjin sneered, "That's ridiculous! Just because others say I killed someone, does that mean I killed someone? If someone says I set fire to your house, does that mean it's true?"

Chen Jiang's face darkened. "Princess Hongjin, this is a courtroom. Please cooperate!"

"What if I don't cooperate?" Wei Hongjin said arrogantly. "If you have evidence, arrest me. If you don't, let me go! Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite!"

Chen Jiang currently has no evidence, only Zhang Laosan's testimony.

His expression was rather grim; he only hoped that Cang Yue and his team could find evidence.

"No evidence, huh? Then I'm leaving!" Wei Hongjin said sarcastically. "Lord Chen, I know you are incorruptible and quick to solve cases, but next time you invite me here, please prepare evidence. This princess doesn't have time to play games with you!"

Chen Jiang was furious. With Wei Hongjin gone, it would be difficult to take her with him again.

Just as he was in a dilemma, Song Siyao spoke up, "Princess Hongjin!"

"What are you doing?" Wei Hongjin stared at Song Siyao.

"Where did you get the silver notes you gave to Zhang Laosan?" Song Siyao asked.

Wei Hongjin's heart skipped a beat, but she pretended to be calm and said, "I don't know what you're talking about!"

“According to the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty, when the government is handling a case, everyone must cooperate; otherwise, they will be punished for obstructing official business!” Song Siyao said.

"I won't cooperate, what can you do about it?" Wei Hongjin said defiantly.

"You're welcome to try leaving," Song Siyao said calmly, yet with an undeniable forcefulness.

Wei Hongjin stopped and stared at Song Siyao for a few moments. She bit her lip, and finally walked back with a face full of anger, shouting, "Song Siyao, I'm not afraid of you. I'll see what you can do to me today!"

Time crawls like a snail, slowly slipping away little by little.

In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Cang Yue returned, bringing several people with him.

"Princess, the source of the silver notes has been identified."

"explain."

"The banknotes came from Fengheng Money Shop. The pawnshop took the banknotes and then gave them to the people who pawned things. According to the pawnshop's ledger records, these banknotes were given to a girl."

Cang Yue opened the items in his hand. "This girl pawned these things. The name she left was a fake name. I have already ordered people to continue investigating. I believe it won't be long before we find out her identity."

Song Siyao looked at the pawned items in front of her; they were all gold and silver jewelry, precious porcelain, and paintings and calligraphy...
