Raising a wife? The mistress of the Hou family divorced and remarried her younger uncle

Chapter 333 Complaint
Su Qingwan was also a tough nut to crack. Knowing that she could not prove her innocence and did not want to be accused of harming a child, she sat and waited for the Prefect of Kyoto to come and investigate. Lu Feng and Lin Shi cursed her with extremely harsh words, but she did not take it seriously and her face was unusually cold.

Lady Ningyuan deliberately kept them in a courtyard to prevent the situation from escalating. She trusted Su Qingwan, and since Lin and Lu Feng were the aggrieved parties, she could only subtly remind them to visit Ding, who was still unconscious after her miscarriage. Lin and Lu Feng rushed over to see her and, upon learning of the loss of their child, began to harass Su Qingwan, demanding an explanation.

The Prefect of Kyoto arrived late. He hadn't wanted to come, as this was a family matter of the Lu family, and outsiders interfering would only cause trouble. He didn't want to get involved, but Su Qingwan personally sent someone to urge him, so the Prefect of Kyoto had no choice but to come in person.

This matter cannot be seriously investigated. No matter what the outcome, he will not be pleased. Lin and Lu Feng asked the Prefect of Kyoto to arrest Su Qingwan, but were refused.

"The tea was not poisoned, and the Princess Consort did not carry any poison on her. Therefore, it cannot be proven that she poisoned the tea. This matter is full of doubts and needs to be investigated carefully. Madam Lu and the eldest son, please be patient."

The prefect of Kyoto could only appease her. Su Qingwan was also glad that she didn't carry any poison, otherwise it would have been even more difficult to explain. She had carried poison before, but today was Chen Lanzhu's wedding, and she had come to attend the banquet. The poison had been put away by Qingyun, and recently she had been protected by Li Yue and Qingyun when she went out. She had never been in any danger in the capital, so she didn't need to carry poison for self-defense.

"She's from Huainan, and she's an expert in poisons. She can poison people without anyone noticing. Who else would poison my wife besides her?" Lu Feng was so angry that his face turned pale. He had been longing for a child for a long time, especially after the day he went to the temple to pray for a child. On his way down the mountain, he happened to meet a monk who told him that he was destined to be childless. He was so angry that he ordered his men to beat the monk up, and he held a grudge ever since. Xie Zhaolan lost her child, Li Xueying lost her child, and now Ding Shi had also miscarried. Lu Feng remembered the monk's words, which struck a nerve, and a wave of sorrow washed over him.

Why was it so difficult for him to have a child? He hated Su Qingwan even more for being so cruel as to kill his child!
The Prefect of Kyoto inwardly groaned, while Madam Lin sneered, "My lord, are you going to protect her just because she is a princess?"

"What do you mean? You can't just arrest people without evidence!" The Prefect of Kyoto frowned and said, "Investigating cases requires evidence. You're fabricating charges out of thin air. Where's the evidence?"

"Arrest her maids and put them in jail. Torture them severely, and they'll confess." Madam Lin knew she couldn't do anything to Su Qingwan; no one dared to touch Lu Jing's princess. But her maids were a different story.

The Prefect of Kyoto frowned. It was true that even an upright official could not settle family disputes. However, this was a compromise. He did not dare to actually torture the Princess's maid, but only put on a show.

"Let's see who dares!" Su Qingwan sneered. "Without evidence, who dares to touch the maids around me? Lin Shi, Lu Feng, you are all incredibly stupid. If you want to punish me, you must find solid evidence. I'm not staying here to listen to your nonsense. If you can't find any evidence, I should go back to the manor."

"Yes, yes, I wouldn't dare delay the Princess!" The Prefect of Kyoto bowed.

Lu Feng and Lin Shi were furious. Lu Feng said, "Xie Zhaolan, I don't believe that no one in the entire capital dares to investigate you. If the Prefect of the Capital doesn't dare to investigate, I will go and file a complaint with the Emperor."

“Brother, if you want to file a complaint with the Emperor, why go through all this trouble!” Lu Jing’s domineering voice rang out. “I can help you submit the complaint.”
