After rebirth, I became a scumbag and his aunt

After passing the hanging flower gate, not far ahead is the meeting hall.

In front of the hall stood two rows of fully armed guards of the Prince's Palace, holding sabers at their waists and looking majestic.

Mrs. Han glanced at Han Qingwan, who looked gloomy, and reminded, "You don't have to be sad. Although the rose garden is burned, the county master is still fine. When you are in front of the two highnesses, don't lose your etiquette."

Han Qingwan rubbed her cheeks and smiled, "Wan'er understands."

Mrs. Han stretched out her ruffles, straightened her appearance, and walked slowly towards the hall.

What she wore today was the same tapestry jacket that she had worn for many years. Today was not a formal occasion and she could not wear imperial robes, so she wore this jacket as a reward for Han Jun's military exploits, so as to remind everyone that

She is the aunt respected by the dignified Duke Dingguo.

When Han Youning walked to the door of the hall, his steps paused.

There were already calls of greeting in the hall, and Zhao Chen's warm voice came out, but Han Youning felt inexplicably cold under the scorching sun.

She walked slowly in, and what greeted her was Zhao Chen's warm and soothing smile.

He raised his hand to prevent Han Youning from kneeling down to say hello, and looked her up and down, "I heard that your yard was on fire last night. Were there any injuries?"

Han Youning lowered his eyes and stood aside, "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. My little girl is fine."

Zhao Chen said gently, "That's good."

He looked at Han Youning for a moment, then looked away.

Zhao Yin had a worried look in his eyes.

Although he knew very little about the filth inside the house, he had been on the battlefield for many years and had seen a lot of conspiracies and tricks. He ignored such little tricks. There was clearly something wrong with this fire.

In this case, the bosses may not be able to withstand the investigation.

Han Qingwan walked up with a food box in her hand, took out two plates of snacks and placed them next to Zhao Chen and Zhao Yin.

She said softly, "The county master was frightened last night, so my daughter made some lotus seed cakes for her. Your Highness, the Crown Prince, and the Third Prince, if you don't dislike it, please give it a try."

Every move she makes is gentle and graceful, and the clothes she wears are dignified yet elegant, with a pleasant fragrance.

There was a hint of tenderness on Zhao Yin's face that he had never noticed before. He first picked up a piece of lotus seed cake and said, "It takes a lot of effort to make this. Didn't you stay up all night?"

Han Qingwan shook her head gently, "The county master was frightened and fell asleep all night, which is worrying. Even the little girl couldn't sleep."

When Zhao Yin was about to put the lotus seed cake into his mouth, he paused his hand slightly and said to Zhao Chen beside him, "Brother, try it."

Zhao Chen glanced at him lightly and pushed the plate in his hand over, "Since my third brother likes it, I will eat more."

Zhao Yin looked at the lotus seed cake in his hand and put it whole into his mouth.

Han Qingwan felt disappointed in her heart. She blessed herself with a smile and retreated to stand next to Han Youning.

She has felt the prince's indifference to her many times, but she doesn't understand what she did wrong. Compared to Han Youning, where did she lose?

She dressed according to the prince's preferences, used his favorite incense, and made his favorite lotus seed cake. But these did not impress him at all.

Only when he looked at Chen Youning, he had a smile in his eyes and a gentle tone in his voice.

Zhao Chen said quietly, "Mrs. Mrs. Dingguo doesn't want to talk about it, but how come the county master's yard caught fire even though everything was fine?"

Mrs. Han stood up unhurriedly and said calmly, "Go back to your highness, the county master must have shown his wealth yesterday at Qingchun Tower and was noticed by others. However, the county master's things were well hidden, and they were angry.

The yard was set on fire."

Zhao Chen sneered, and the warmth on his face disappeared, "If we talk about showing wealth, wouldn't the head and face on Miss Han's hands be more conspicuous."

Only then did Mrs. Han realize what Han Qingwan said, that the prince really had a preference for Chen Youning.

"Your Highness doesn't know something. The rose garden is close to the courtyard wall behind our mansion. There are no other courtyards around, so it is easier to find. Wan'er's courtyard is small, close to the center of the inner courtyard..."

"You don't have to explain so much."

Zhao Chen interrupted her and pointed to an official wearing a scarlet official uniform standing on one side, "You should know Mr. Wang, the young minister of Dali Temple, and the old lady. He is good at solving cases and can understand clearly without anyone having to ask.

."

When Mrs. Han saw Wang Shaoqing's presence, she was beating a drum in her heart. The prince actually asked Dali Temple to investigate the case!

They investigate all major and important cases, and they use many methods!

She declined and said, "This is just a petty theft. I'm afraid it would be inappropriate to alarm Dali Temple. If the boss comes back one day, he might even make a fuss about it."

"If Duke Ding is to blame, just let him come to find the orphan." Zhao Chen glanced at Wang Shaoqing and said, "Master Wang, go ahead."

Wang Shaoqing bowed in agreement and said to Han Rui, "Second Master Han, please show me the way."

Han Rui led Wang Shaoqing out dejectedly.

He is not even as good as a woman in this house. Each of them does great things!

Zhao Chen went directly to the topic, "Gu and the third brother are here to bear witness to Miss Han and prove her innocence. First, let's take stock of Mrs. Dingguo's dowry."

Finally came.

Mrs. Han cheered up and stood up to reply, "Reporting to Your Highness the Crown Prince, my eldest daughter-in-law, Mrs. Chen, was living in Zhuangzi to recuperate, but there was a fire in Zhuangzi, and she brought the dowry list with her, so she burned it too.

Gone."

Zhao Chen said softly, "There were so many fires in your mansion that they even burned down the big house."

Mrs. Han was choked to the point of being speechless, and the prince was too disrespectful to her!

She didn't dare to say the next words.

Zhao Chen drank tea leisurely and glanced at Mrs. Han, "Since you mentioned the order from the late Duke's wife first, so the one in your hand is gone."

Mrs. Han could only push out Little Wen, "Report to Your Highness, since Little Wen took the wedding gift ten years ago, this dowry list has been given to her. However, she was young and careless at that time and lost the list.

Already..."

Little Wen knelt on the ground to plead guilty, crying bitterly.

Zhao Chen couldn't help but laugh and looked at Zhao Yin, "With so many coincidences, can third brother be trustworthy?"

Zhao Yin looked very unhappy.

Of course he didn't believe it.

The only thing he can believe now is that Han Qingwan is innocent and the elders of the family are at fault.

He said, "Since it's all gone, it's not too much trouble to go to the government office."

Zhao Chen told Wei Xiao beside him, "Go to the government office and ask Magistrate Liu to deliver the dowry list."

Wei Xiao took the order and retreated.

Zhao Chen smiled and looked at Zhao Yin, "Third brother, do you think Magistrate Liu might be able to find him?"

Zhao Yin said calmly, "Let's wait and see."

Zhao Chen smiled, "Then just wait."

Zhao Yin drank tea in silence.

He clearly noticed that the prince had been quite hostile to him for more than a month and would test him from time to time. He even relied on the keenness of a warrior to detect the prince's strong murderous intention towards him.

Although the royal family has no family ties, the prince used to be kind to others and would not openly show hostility.

He thought carefully, maybe it was during the last competition in the school field that he failed to hold back his sword and stabbed the prince.

The prince also suffered from a high fever.

Perhaps in the prince's mind, his sword attack was intentional, to seize the crown prince's position.
