he throne, this will be your country, and only then will you have the qualification to think about how to take back what has been lost. Now, how much does this country have to do with you This is the...Chapter 412 Xu Junlou

"Are you Mr. Xu's nephew"

The young man's expression changed, and he nodded. "My name is Xu Junlou."

"Take me inside, and let me meet Mr. Xu's family."

Li Chen's unreasonable demands made Xu Junlou frown.

At such a time, most ordinary friends would avoid it, but Li Chen's extraordinary demeanor allowed him to see that this was no ordinary person. Not only did he not leave, but he also requested to meet the family.

This is quite unreasonable.

But for some reason, Xu Junlou felt that he shouldn't refuse.

Please.

With a gesture, Xu Junlou invited Li Chen and the three treasures into the inner hall.

In the inner hall, three women were wiping their tears.

Three Treasures quietly leaned into Li Chen's ear and said, "These three are all Xu Changqing's wives and concubines. The one in purple is the main wife, and the other two are concubines. Xu Changqing has no children, so he treats this nephew named Xu Junlou like a son."

Li Chen nodded, indicating he understood.

Xu Junlou walked to the purple-clothed woman's ear and said a few words. Then, she stood up and came before Li Chen, bowing respectfully. Although her eyes were red and swollen, and her expression was full of grief, she still forced herself to say: "Sir, I apologize for the disturbance."

Waving his hand, Li Chen said, "I already knew about these things before I came. I heard that the Ministry of Criminal Justice found stolen money and evidence at your home on the spot. Is that true"

The woman in purple gritted her teeth and said, "What's true about that A group of them came to our door with official documents from the Ministry of Justice. They wouldn't let us explain anything, just pushed us aside, a bunch of women and children, and beat and scolded us. Then they carried several boxes into the house. After a while, they carried them out unchanged, claiming they had found evidence. When they opened the boxes, they were full of white flowers silver."

"Damn it, even if they were framing me, there's no way this is how they'd do it! They carried the boxes in themselves and immediately claim they found evidence in my house. Is there any law left in this world! My master has worked diligently his whole life, he may not have accomplished great feats, but he certainly has suffered for them. And these people from the Ministry of Justice treat a kind man like this!"

Li Chen's eyebrows lifted, he looked at San Bao, and asked faintly, "The Ministry of Justice handles cases like this"

"Sān Bǎo grinned and said, 'It's just a normal meal. Everyone says the Dongchang is bloody and brutal when handling cases, but compared to the Ministry of Justice, they are practically upholding justice. While I can't say that everyone caught by the Dongchang is innocent, nine out of ten are guilty. What about the Ministry of Justice They are powerful and influential, nobody dares to challenge them, but their methods are dirtier than the Dongchang's.'"

Li Chen looked at the woman in purple with an impassive expression and asked, "I see that the furnishings in your home are mostly commoner's items. Even if Mr. Xu is as incorruptible as they say, he still has a salary. How can this be Could it be that you're deliberately putting on a show"

As soon as these words were uttered, the faces of Xu's family members instantly changed.

The woman in purple immediately retorted with a sharp and angry voice, "Sir, I am just an ordinary woman. While I don't know your identity, no matter who you are, speaking without evidence is not appropriate, is it"

"My master has served in government for decades, and all that is left is his reputation. One can perform for a year or two, but to perform for ten or twenty years...is that still considered performing"

"You ask about salary, yes, my master does have a salary. But he didn't start out as a fourth-rank official and receive the corresponding salary. In the past few years, he was a low-ranking official, and the imperial court's salary was very low, barely enough to feed our family!" in is Zhào Xuánjī.Li Chen originally thought that with the Wu brothers' past, the hidden danger of Yueya Pass could be resolved at once.But unexpectedly, this old fox Zhao Xuanji was so deeply hidden...
