Genshin Impact: I, the Winter Prince, reign supreme.

And the law, naturally, is related to lawsuits.

She had just finished stating her guess when a female secretary from the mission walked in with her head bowed.

"Your Highness, there is a lawyer outside who claims to be a legal expert from Liyue requesting an audience."

The woman in the mirror said coldly, "What expert? I've never heard of her. Let her leave! His Highness the Prince isn't someone they can just see whenever they want."

When a lawyer proactively contacts you, it's never a good sign; it means trouble is on the way.

“I told her that His Highness the Prince does not receive strangers. But she said that she came with sincerity, and if His Highness the Prince avoids her, it would be tantamount to contempt of Liyue’s laws, and would also result in a trial in absentia, which would affect the reputation of the Winter Kingdom in Liyue, especially the reputation of the Northern Bank.”

Zang Jingshi said angrily, "She dares to threaten our Zhidong Kingdom, what audacity! Even Ningguang of Tianquan Star wouldn't dare to speak to us in such a tone, what is she, a mere lawyer?"

"Her name is Yan Fei, right?"

At this moment, Su Yu spoke up and asked.

"Yes, Your Highness."

"Let her in."

Su Yu sipped tea and ate breakfast.

The lady in the hidden mirror asked, "Your Highness, you don't need to have any contact with this kind of person. Leave it to me to deal with her!"

Are you familiar with the legal provisions of Liyue?

One of the prince's questions stumped her on the spot.

"Your Highness, so you read so many books overnight just to deal with this person."

The woman in the mirror, realizing what was happening, exclaimed in surprise.

Chapter 100 Reconciliation

The woman in the mirror recalled the prince's casual remark from last night: "Those you pity will not pity us." This further confirmed her suspicions.

His Highness the Prince had foreseen last night that a lawyer would come to his door today, and made preparations overnight.

By reviewing the events, she further deduced that Yelan must have realized she had been tricked, so she commissioned Liyue's legal experts to help her seek justice.

From the moment his identity was exposed last night, His Highness had already anticipated Ye Lan's countermeasures!

This ability to accurately analyze an opponent's thoughts is simply miraculous.

The whole thing seems unbelievable at first glance, but upon closer examination, there are clues to follow.

However, mortals like her cannot fathom the key points within it.

Only His Highness the Prince could see through people's hearts and understand Ye Lan's thoughts.

But who exactly is this lawyer named "Yanfei" that he could make His Highness the Prince spend an entire night reading law books?

It's not that she looks down on the legal profession.

The people of Zhidong are known for their fierce and martial spirit, and most tend to resolve conflicts through fighting. As a result, lawyers do not have a high social status in Zhidong and have almost no business.

People who seek legal counsel to resolve their problems are often looked down upon.

The strong don't need lawyers.

This is a concept related to the approach of winter.

"See? I told you so. Your prince understands the importance of the law, and he will definitely agree to see me."

“Hey, Prince Zhidong is a man who values ​​the law. He cares about the reputation of Zhidong Kingdom and the reputation of the Northern Bank. People like him are easy to talk to.”

"Some of my colleagues in the Kingdom of Winter told me that people there don't like to go to court. Is that true? Hmm, you're so aloof. You don't even want to answer my questions."

Before Yan Feiren even arrived, she was already chatting very proactively and enthusiastically with the staff leading the way.

Although the entire exchange consisted of her speaking and asking questions only.

In stark contrast to her talkative image is her appearance—

Her coral-colored, waist-length hair concealed the two outward-extending antlers at the back of her head; the red magic hat on her head, along with the "Liyue Hundred Laws" slung across her waist, made her look professional, capable, and graceful.

The lady with the mirror was observing her appearance and was amazed by her beauty.

She was stunned by the mountain of books piled up all over the room.

She circled the "little mountain of books" three times before stopping.

"My goodness, you've bought all the law books in Liyue. That's more than the books I have at home."

After sighing, Yan Fei finally turned her attention to the person she was targeting.

The prince who was supposed to be there for winter was having breakfast at that moment.

His eyes and brows exude a unique heroic spirit, which cannot be adequately described by the word "handsome".

Upon closer examination, it possesses both a scholarly air and a sense of authority.

"Greetings to Your Highness."

Yan Fei bowed and lowered her head in respect.

Since we're here for work, we must observe all the proper etiquette.

The person opposite is said to have been courted by even the Emperor, and almost became the "Regent" of Liyue.

She certainly wouldn't dare to neglect someone even the Emperor acknowledged.

"Miss Yanfei, did Yelan send you on her behalf?"

Su Yu raised his head and asked calmly.

"As Your Highness said, I have been entrusted by Miss Yelan to handle this economic fraud case on her behalf."

"This is the complaint; please take a look, Your Highness."

Once she gets into work mode, Yan Fei immediately transforms into a different person, becoming serious and focused.

Yan Fei originally wanted to hand over the complaint herself and take the opportunity to observe Prince Zhi Dong up close, but was stopped by the lady of the Hidden Mirror.

The maid stepped forward, took the petition, and handed it to Su Yu.

"You're here to mediate, aren't you?"

After reading the complaint, Su Yu casually put it on the table and continued eating breakfast.

Yelan sued him on the grounds that he impersonated her ancestor Boyang and defrauded her and her family of their property.

This reason is clearly an exaggeration, intended to tarnish one's own reputation.

However, such grounds for prosecution that deviate from the actual situation are easily judged by the judge as false accusations, which will ultimately be detrimental to Ye Lan.

Therefore, Su Yu believed that Yan Fei must have come to mediate.

Allowing both parties to reach a settlement outside the courtroom and resolve the matter peacefully would be a win-win outcome for both the plaintiff and the defendant.

Taking the matter to court is a last resort.

The lady with the mirror standing respectfully to the side raised an eyebrow.

Ye Lan actually sued her own prince in court, and the charge was "economic fraud"!

What a waste of His Highness's good intentions.

But she quickly realized that this was Ye Lan's true nature, the intelligence officer who had always given the Kingdom of Winter a headache.

If she chose to swallow her anger, that wouldn't be Ye Lan.

Furthermore, using the rules to resist is also a way of showing respect to a powerful figure like His Highness the Prince.

“Your Highness, Miss Yelan requests that you return the principal she and her family deposited in the Northern Bank, as well as compensation for the interest accrued during this period and the costs of this lawsuit. My legal fees are not low; based on the value of this case, it will cost over a million Mora.”

"By the way, I originally suggested that Miss Yelan file a claim against you for joint damages for emotional distress, but Miss Yelan told me that you did not cause her any emotional distress, so this part of the lawsuit was not included."

Yan Fei emphasized that this part might sound strange to outsiders.

But she knew that His Highness had read so many law books that he could understand their meaning.

In Liyue, it's common practice for victims to seek compensation for emotional distress from defendants in such cases.

Ye Lan voluntarily gave up this right.

Therefore, she wanted to bring it up so that Prince Zhidong would know Yelan's true attitude.

“Your Highness, although you are not a citizen of Liyue, your Northern Bank has chosen to operate in Liyue, so you must abide by the laws of Liyue.”

Yan Fei has been involved in lawsuits with many foreign dignitaries or diplomatic mission personnel in the past.

Experience taught her that she had to make it clear to these foreigners face-to-face that everyone is equal before the law.

Even if you are not a native of Liyue, you will still be punished by law if you break the law in Liyue. You cannot take chances.

"First of all, Yelan and her family have fixed-term deposits."

Su Yu began to patiently state the facts.

I read so many books last night precisely to solve the problem at hand.

"According to Liyue's banking laws, this is a bank she voluntarily deposited in, and no one coerced her. Therefore, she must wait a year before she can withdraw the deposit, otherwise it can be considered a breach of commercial contract."

"Secondly, within Liyue, as long as I don't use that money elsewhere and it's just in the bank, it can't be defined as fraud. Only if I spend that money can it be defined as fraud."

"In the end, it wasn't me who encouraged her family to deposit money in the Northern Bank, but Miss Yelan herself."

“Ms. Yanfei, the grounds for her accusing me of economic fraud are unfounded. At most, you can say that I induced her to deposit money, but that absolutely does not constitute the crime of fraud.”

"I have done nothing wrong, so there is no need for reconciliation."

……

Ps:

It wasn't easy; this book has reached one hundred chapters!

Chapter 101 Lofty Ambitions

Ye Lan and her family's wealth were deposited in the Northern Bank as fixed deposits.

Su Yu did not order the Northern Bank to misappropriate or use this fund, so this huge sum of over 10 billion Mora is absolutely safe.
