Therefore, it cannot constitute the crime of fraud.

Yan Fei's smile gradually froze, and she said in a forced relaxed tone, "Your Highness stayed up all night reading so many law books just to deal with me, didn't you?"

Yan Fei felt quite proud that Prince Zhi Dong had made such thorough preparations to deal with her.

Although she was rendered speechless in the mediation, at least she managed to save face.

Su Yu said indifferently, "Dealing with Miss Yanfei alone is not worth my personal intervention. Many of Liyue's legal provisions also apply to the Kingdom of Winter. I plan to implement new legal reforms in the Kingdom of Winter after returning from this mission."

The lady with the hidden mirror took a deep breath.

His Highness spent the entire night studying the Liyue legal texts; it turns out the more important purpose was to reform the Winter Law.

Although she didn't understand the benefits of the rule of law for Zhidong, His Highness the Prince insisted on doing so, so this matter must be beneficial to Zhidong.

Yan Fei's thoughts at this moment were almost identical to those of the Lady Zang Jing.

However, what they heard next, the prince said, made them even more astonished.

"The benevolent ideals of Winter, the spirit of contract in Liyue, and the free spirit of Mondstadt."

"There is also Inazuma's unwavering commitment to eternity, Sumeru's faith in wisdom, Fontaine's pursuit of justice, and Nata's culture of the victor taking all."

"One day in the future, when a new unification arrives, the cultural ideas of the seven kingdoms will merge. I have only done some minor homework today, which may come in handy in the future."

Each of the seven gods had a rather eccentric philosophy of governance, resulting in each country having a unique style.

Yan Fei never considered integrating the governing philosophies of other countries.

The height she stands at is not high enough.

Her perspective is not broad enough.

Prince Zhidong had great ambitions; he was preparing for the unification of the seven kingdoms.

Fortunately, she studied law and deeply understands the importance of rules to society. Sometimes she does fantasize that if the other six nations absorbed Liyue's spirit of contract, they would definitely develop much faster.

If the seven kingdoms set aside their past grievances, put aside their arrogance and prejudice, and learn from each other's strengths, then all seven kingdoms will develop rapidly!

The seven governing philosophies of Teyvat are actually complementary.

Su Yu's words enlightened her.

Yan Fei said with shame, "Your Highness has lofty ambitions. Staying up all night to read was not to specifically target me; I overestimated myself."

"Most people wouldn't understand what I'm saying. The fact that you can understand even a little bit is enough to prove your excellence."

Su Yu responded calmly.

What he just talked about is only a corner of the future world, like a dragonfly skimming the water.

Neither "unification" nor "the fusion of the ideas of the seven kingdoms" is conceivable to ordinary people whose thinking has become rigid.

The fact that Yan Fei could appreciate the subtlety of it all at least shows that she is a person with independent thinking.

Yan Fei raised her head and looked at the man opposite her again.

Things that ordinary people would never dare to imagine, he described as if he were recounting a fact.

Absolute confidence, and absolute composure!

The ultimate goal of this Prince Zhidong may be a unified world in the future.

A unified world must be wonderful, which is why he's willing to fight for it...

The prince who will reign until winter is still young, but his ambition is no less than that of the emperor.

She began to understand why the Emperor had invited this person to serve as "Regent".

“Your Highness, since you do not agree to a settlement, you should be careful from now on. I have never lost a case. At the same time, I will take some measures that may displease you.”

After calming herself down, Yanfei threw herself back into her work.

Although she admires Prince Winter, this will not affect her prosecution of him in the slightest.

She is popular in the legal profession because she is not afraid of powerful figures and always stands on the side of fairness and justice.

"You will then apply to the court to freeze the hundreds of billions of Mora deposits held by Yelan and her family in the Northern Bank."

Su Yu directly exposed her "method".

“Your Highness truly knows the laws of Liyue very well. You are right, I will do so.”

Su Yu smiled and said, "Then I have no objection."

The purpose of the Northern Bank in accepting deposits is to reduce the amount of Mora circulating in the Liyue market.

The court has frozen tens of billions of Mora in the bank, making it even more impossible for Yelan to withdraw them.

This was equivalent to helping Su Yu, and he didn't even have time to express his gratitude.

Seeing that the prince in front of her was not angry at all, Yan Fei realized that her methods were useless against him and could only sigh.

Do you know who the real fraudsters are?

"Please enlighten me, Your Highness."

"It was your client, Miss Yelan. She used the Luck Dice to gamble at the Rock Tea House and actually profited over a hundred million Mora. She is the real beneficiary."

Yan Fei frowned.

Ye Lan didn't tell her any of this information.

If the matter goes to court, Ye Lan will be at a disadvantage.

“Your Highness, the bracelet on your table belongs to Miss Ye Lan. You used it to defraud her, didn’t you? It’s a tool used in the crime, and I hope you can return it to her.”

Su Yu replied, "Why don't you make her return the pelt of the alien beast first?"

This is yet another piece of information I didn't know.

Ye Lan has concealed so much, putting her in a very passive position in this lawsuit.

“It seems Your Highness is unwilling to settle. In that case, we’ll see you in court. I’ll go to the court in a bit to file a complaint and request a hearing.”

The lady with the hidden mirror said, "You will not be able to see His Highness in court. We will hire a professional lawyer to defend him."

Yan Fei felt slightly disappointed.

She also wanted to have a heated debate with Prince Zhidong in court.

"Miss Yanfei, is there anything else?"

The lady with the hidden mirror asked a question.

She didn't want Yanfei to stay here at all.

This female lawyer is indeed very difficult to deal with.

If Your Highness hadn't made thorough preparations today, you might have actually been outmaneuvered by her using the law.

"Don't rush me away, I haven't finished speaking yet."

Yan Fei took out a second document from her bag.

"Your Highness, this is another indictment. Please take a look."

"The plaintiff is De'an Gong, whose daughter Hua Chu tragically drowned at Feiyunpo. He believes that Beiguo Bank is the murderer and has entrusted me to represent him in this case."

Yan Fei's visit was actually at the request of the two plaintiffs.

Both cases are related to Prince Zhidong.

The lady with the hidden mirror said angrily, "Lawyer Yanfei, don't talk nonsense and slander His Highness the Prince!"

"Hua Chu's body is still at the scene. Go and see for yourselves if you don't believe me."

Yan Fei suggested.

"can."

Su Yu stood up.

Chapter 102 Prosecution

A spring near Feiyunpo.

Clear spring water continuously gushes from the ground and flows downstream.

In the canal, you can see lush green lotus leaves, pink lotus flowers, and a group of koi swimming among the lotus leaves.

The rafts and small boats drifted on the water, parting clumps of lush green water plants.

Blue skies and white clouds, shimmering lakes and mountains—the scenery is breathtaking.

However, almost none of the people who come here today are here for sightseeing.

A circle formed in the very center of the crowd.

An elderly man with white hair knelt on the ground and wept bitterly.

Something was covered by a white cloth in front of him.

Judging from the raised outline, one can vaguely guess that it is a person, or rather, a corpse.

The body was first discovered by a fisherman, who then sent someone to notify the Qianyan Army to come and investigate.

"Lord De'an, please accept our condolences. Your daughter helped beggars and refugees many times during her lifetime. She was kind-hearted and was recognized by everyone as a virtuous lady. Now that she has jumped into the river and taken her own life, we are also very saddened."

The white-haired old man kneeling on the ground trembled with rage as he said, "Hua Chu couldn't have committed suicide! I know my daughter best. It must have been someone from the Northern Bank! On the way here, I already had a lawyer file a lawsuit against Prince Dong, demanding he be held responsible for my daughter's death!"

"Oh, why are you doing this to yourself? Offending Prince Zhidong will not end well."

The fisherman continued to persuade him.

"Northern Bank made me lose everything! My family fortune, my daughter, all gone now, all I have left are my old bones, what am I afraid of offending anyone!"

Duke De'an said with deep resentment.

Seeing this, the fisherman sat down to rest and waited for the Thousand Rock Army to arrive before giving up trying to persuade them.

The earlier statement about jumping into the river to commit suicide was merely to avoid upsetting Duke De'an.

In fact, he believed that the culprit might actually be the Northern Bank, or the Winter Prince who was visiting Liyue.

Moreover, there were quite a few people at the scene who shared his views.
