When the commoners knew that Meng Hang was going to be interrogated today, they spontaneously surrounded the court. They wanted to know what the heir of Prince Jin would do.

Jiang Ying’s trial was very fast, and the results stunned the commoners.

The commoners did not expect that the official who usually looked the most amiable and loved to speak up for the people would actually have such a background.

“Send his entire family to the border to do manual labor!”

“Kill him!”

“Kill the entire family!”

…

Someone started it, and the onlookers began to make a fuss.

“Silence!” Jiang Ying picked up the wooden gavel and slammed it on the table. With a bang, the entire venue instantly fell silent.

“I know what everyone is thinking. I’ll handle this case according to the law.” Jiang Ying made a promise to everyone.

Immediately after, he listed the crimes of Meng Hang’s family and said, “According to their crimes, they should be executed. While talking about the law, you have to give them face. I’ll investigate everyone in Meng Hang’s family. While I won’t let any bad people off, I won’t wrong any good people.”

“If we find the guilty, we’ll punish them according to the law. We can let those innocent people off,” Jiang Ying said.

Killing nine generations was too much of a sin. He did not want to do this. Meng Hang’s nine generations might not all be bad people.

Since the crown prince had said that he would take full responsibility, he would be responsible to the end.

Jiang Ying’s words won the praise of everyone around him.

“Prince, you’re benevolent! It’s our blessing to have a king like you!”

“That’s right. I know Meng Hang’s younger brother-in-law. He’s really a good person. It’s just that he’s been oppressed by Meng Hang’s sister. He’s very stuffy and doesn’t like to talk. He’s a kind person who doesn’t even want to step on ants.”

“The heir is wise!”

…

The surrounding crowd began to praise Jiang Ying generously. Ning Yue, who was sitting in the inner hall, listened to all of this quietly and smiled.

Jiang Ying was very wise and kind, but his kindness was not indiscriminate. This was also one of his strengths.

She liked Jiang Ying like this.

At noon, Jiang Ying got someone to bring Meng Hang away.

In the beginning, when Meng Hang was brought to the government office, he was still fearless. He thought that as long as he was captured by the Imperial Court, the people would cause a scene.

However, when he knelt in the court and the commoners glared at him, he began to panic.

However, he thought that the evidence of his crimes was kept in a very secret place, and his worries were dispelled.

However, soon, Meng Hang couldn’t laugh anymore. The evidence Jiang Ying talked about made his expression turn uglier and uglier. In the end, he fainted in the hall.

However, no one pitied him.

Meng Hang was taken to a cell to be detained alone. There were two guards guarding him every day, giving him no chance to escape.

In despair, he shouted in the cell, “Call Prince Jiang over! I’ll confess. I’m willing to confess!”

The guard ignored him. He was unwilling to confess when he was asked to. He only thought of confessing when the heir had investigated his crimes. It was too late!

No matter how Meng Hang shouted, no one paid attention. In the end, he was tired and squatted in the prison to wail.

But who sympathized with him?

The news that Jiang Ying wanted to investigate Meng Hang’s nine generations spread. Those who wanted to get rid of evidence were found by Jiang Ying.

What awaited these people would be a harsh trial.

It was already a week later when Jiang Ying and Ning Yue settled Meng Hang’s matter.

The matter of Meng Hang’s nine generations had been settled in three days, but it would take a few days to count these people’s assets.

Jiang Ying did not confiscate any of the silver and items obtained from the raid. Half of them were handed to the national treasury and the other half to the crown prince. The crown prince was overjoyed.

Although Ning Yue had given the medicinal makeup to the crown prince, it was impossible to use it to earn a lot of money in the short term. With those people’s assets, the crown prince was laughing in his dreams.

He immediately waved his hand and gave Jiang Ying and Ning Yue a lot of betrothal gifts. This far exceeded what the two of them deserved.

“I’ve been busy for so many days. It’s time to go back. I miss Xiaobao and Xiaobei so much,” Ning Yue said sadly.

“That’s right. We have to go back quickly.” Jiang Ying’s heart ached at the thought of his two babies.

Ever since the children were born, he had spent too little time with them.

The two of them decided to set off immediately. They didn’t even wait a minute.
