Chapter 62: Confronting Raven
"The city lord has a lot of things to do. He may be tied up by something. Princess, please calm down. I will ask someone to urge you again."
After the butler finished speaking, he quickly asked another servant to go to the backyard to find Raven...
"What's going on with you? Princess Eleven has been waiting in the front hall for a long time."
Soon, another servant also arrived at the dormitory. Seeing the servant who had just been sent, he asked sharply.
"It's not that I don't scream, it's that the adults don't come out."
This servant is about to cry. Do you think he wants to? He doesn’t want to either.
At this time, the concubine's maid also came over again and stared at the two people:
"Don't you know that the master and his wife are resting? It's a good thing that you are shouting here, get out of here! Otherwise, you can wait for the master to convict you!"
"You are a woman with long hair and short knowledge. Do you know what is going on now? Get out of here!"
The new servant almost got angry when he heard this, and slapped the maid again. Unlike the first servant, he walked directly to the door and shouted:
"Sir, Princess Eleven has arrived and said she wants to see you!"
This time, Lei Wen finally heard what the chattering outside was about, and with a sudden thought, he pushed the concubine who was being gentle with him away.
He stood up immediately, got dressed in a hurry, and walked out disheveled:
"what are you saying?"
"Sir, you have finally come out. Princess Eleven has been waiting in the front hall for nearly a stick of incense!"
When the servants saw Raven coming out, they rushed to greet him and said in a hurry.
"What? Why don't you say anything?"
Raven's eyes widened and he hurried towards the front hall.
The two servants behind me were very speechless, why didn't we tell you? We have been shouting here for a long time, so why don't you come out?
Of course, they can only talk about these complaints in their hearts, but they dare not say them out loud.
However... I turned around and looked at the maid who had just gotten up. I couldn't help but feel gloating. This concubine and the maid... were usually going to suffer.
At this time, in the front hall, Raven had just rushed over in a hurry.
"The princess is here, but Lei Wen is far away from us. Please forgive me for your sins."
As he spoke, he gave a big salute. At the same time, I don't know whether it was because he walked too fast or because he was afraid. There were beads of sweat on his head, and the ends of his hair flowed down as he spoke.
Luo Jiaqi was seen taking a sip of tea leisurely, with an unknown smile on his face, and said lightly:
"It doesn't matter. The city lord has many things to do every day, so it doesn't matter if he comes so late."
As he said that, he looked at the housekeeper of the City Lord's Mansion with a vague look.
When Luo Jiaqi's gaze came into contact, the housekeeper quickly lowered his head, not daring to make any move.
And Lei Wen was also shocked by Luo Jiaqi's words, and he always felt that something was going to happen.
She didn't know why, but she always felt that the opponent was a ten-year-old girl, but she always felt that his aura could overwhelm him.
"Why don't Lord Lei get up? Come on, let's sit and talk."
Seeing that Lei Wen was too scared to move, Yi Chen couldn't help but laugh. Not to mention, Luo Jiaqi was quite good at scaring people sometimes.
Lei Wen didn't dare to say anything, he just followed Luo Jiaqi's suggestion, stood up and walked aside to continue.
Although he had relaxed his vigilance towards Luo Jiaqi during this period, he was still a little worried when he saw Luo Jiaqi again today.
Maybe it has something to do with the fact that he has done some bad things.
"…I wonder why the princess came here this time?"
Luo Jiaqi didn't speak after sitting down, and Yi Chen and Luo Zhan beside her didn't mean to speak either. This made Raven feel very uncomfortable, so he could only ask himself.
"Oh, it's nothing serious."
Hearing Raven's voice, Luo Jiaqi seemed to finally remember what she was here to do.
Putting down the tea cup in his hand, Luo Jiaqi looked at Raven with a smile:
"City Lord Lei, this is my first time here, so I'm still not very familiar with Yin Yu.
Therefore, I have not planned to take over Yin Yu's affairs during this period.
Instead, while adapting to life here in the princess's mansion, I asked the Luo guards and the Zijin guards to collect information about Yin Yu for me over the years."
Luo Jiaqi was direct, and did not say too many digressions. He did not blame Raven for being late, but went straight to the point.
However, Luo Jiaqi's words made Lei Wen feel a little nervous, but he was a little lucky. They shouldn't be able to find anything, right?
But it was obvious that Lei Wen was overthinking, as Luo Jiaqi's face suddenly darkened:
"But I don't know if I don't investigate. I'll be shocked if I investigate. I didn't expect that over the years, Lord Lei City has sought a lot of benefits by relying on his official position."
At this moment, in Raven's eyes, Luo Jiaqi was no longer a ten-year-old child, but a decisive and decisive person. He couldn't help but kneel down without thinking too much about Luo Jiaqi's words.
Is it true or false, but directly pleads for mercy:
"Princess, I know that I have committed a serious crime, but apart from being a little greedy for money, I have not done anything harmful to nature.
Please also ask the princess to show mercy and spare the life of the guilty minister."
Luo Jiaqi didn't expect that Raven would be so timid. She had prepared all the evidence, but she was just waiting for Raven to refute and fell on his face.
But who knew that this guy would plead guilty before the evidence was even produced?
Well, some time ago, I made a powerful move, but I didn’t expect that it turned out to be a paper tiger.
In fact, if it were anyone else, Raven might have argued a bit, but the luck was really not on his side today.
First, he came late and was already guilty, but then he was found out about the bad things he had done before. He was just a coward.
Of course, there is another very important reason, that is, the aura of our eleventh princess Luo Jiaqi is quite powerful.
"Humph, Raven, have you really not committed any other crime besides corruption?"
In fact, Luo Jiaqi already knew what Lei Wen had done since he took office, but in order to make Lei Wen more convinced, she still needed to go through some procedures.
"Princess, it is clear that the guilty minister really does not dare to do other things that are harmful to nature."
Raven is very nervous now. After all, this is not just about his black hat, it may also shake his head!
He cherishes his life! So now he doesn’t dare to tell any lies.
For some reason, Luo Jiaqi suddenly despised Lei Wen. He didn't expect to admit defeat so easily. He was really spineless...
"Humph, you don't dare to do anything despite your courage."
Luo Jiaqi snorted coldly. Now that Lei Wen has confessed, that means they can make their next plan.
