?Chapter 1014: 482 Beating the Scum Dad (Second Update) Chapter 1014: 482 Beating the Scum Dad (Second Update) For Xiao Hen, today was a day of great joy as he received a promotion, and for Yuan Tang who had finally escaped the Capital City, it was equally a day of celebration.
The Lord Marquis of Gu in the Capital City was not so lucky; he had an ominous chill in the middle of the night, sensing that something big was about to happen. Sure enough, he was arrested first thing in the morning before he even had a chance to wake up fully.
He was completely bewildered.
What’s going on? Why was he arrested for no reason at all?
His father was arrested at the border defenses, and he was arrested in the Capital City—what kind of mess was this?
“Lord Marquis.”
The one who arrested him was none other than Xiao Hen’s new immediate superior, the Minister of Punishment.
The Minister of Punishment said with a stern face, “You are suspected of the crime of deceiving the emperor, and I need you to take a trip to the Ministry of Justice.”
The Lord Marquis was dazed: “Hold on, explain yourself! Who deceived the emperor?”
The Minister of Punishment had anticipated his response and brought forward the guards who had been on duty at the north city gate the previous night, asking the leader, “What happened while you were on duty last night? Tell me everything.”
The head guard replied, “Last night, the Lord Marquis used a fake imperial decree to leave the Capital City through a secret passage at the north city gate.”
The Lord Marquis said angrily, “I stayed in my residence all night long. When did I leave the city? And when did I use a fake imperial decree?”
The Minister of Punishment looked at the guard: “Are you sure you weren’t mistaken? It was the Lord Marquis?”
The guard said with conviction, “That person had the token of Marquis Anning, and his voice was exactly the same as the Lord Marquis’ is right now!”
A cold light flashed in the Lord Marquis’ eyes: “Do not slander me with such unfounded accusations!”
“What about his appearance?” asked the Minister of Punishment.
Intimidated by the Lord Marquis’ aura, the guard glanced at the Minister of Punishment before saying, “He wore a bamboo hat, and I didn’t see clearly.”
The Lord Marquis was furious: “Go and search my residence! I never left the Marquis Residence the whole time! It must be someone impersonating me! That token is also fake! My token is clearly—”
As he spoke, the Lord Marquis reached into his wide sleeve for the token, to his surprise, he found nothing.
Eh?
