This group of officers worked well together and were well-trained. In just a few moves, they had beaten Lan He's guards to the ground.
When they came back to their senses, this group of people had already begun to step on the guard's face and interrogate him.
"Big Brother Lan, what's going on? Are the officers of our Ying Tian Prefecture that ruthless?”
Lan Yu was also dumbfounded. Such strong combat strength was simply more ferocious than the border army. Was this really an official of the Yingtian Prefecture?
Lan He panicked.
"Godfather, this is definitely not an officer. When did an officer have such strong combat strength?”
Lan Yu snorted coldly and cursed trash. Then, she took large strides forward.
Just as Lan Yu was about to reveal her identity and scare off this group of officers, a graceful and beautiful young man wearing a new shabby shirt walked into the restaurant.
"Eh?"
"Brother Liu is mighty. You've controlled the situation so quickly!”
"Li Erleng, stop hiding. I saw you under the table!”
Qin Mu went forward and flipped open the table, directly lifting Li Erleng up.
"Dog, you actually dare to dodge!"
"Big Brother Liu, give me a knife. I'll give this guy some wounds!”
Hearing this, Liu Yue threw a knife over without hesitation.
Qin Mu took the knife and cut Liu Erleng's body a few times, letting him bleed before throwing him onto the ground.
"Tie him up!"
"Tell the public that this person resisted arrest and was accidentally injured during the arrest process!”
The young man from the Liu Clan Village couldn't help but snicker when he heard this.
However, they agreed in unison.
Qin Mu kicked Li Erleng who was pretending to be dead on the ground and asked.
"Speak!"
"Which one is Lan He?"
Li Erleng dared not say anything, but his eyes naturally looked at where Lan He was standing.
Seeing this, Lan He wanted nothing more than to kill this trash.
Qin Mu followed Lan He's gaze and walked towards her.
"You must be Lan He?"
"You're suspected of harboring criminals, bullying others, robbing others by force, and forcefully buying and selling.”
"Please follow us back to the government office and tell us the truth!”
"If you dare to resist, Li Erleng will end up like you!”
When Lan He heard this, he couldn't help but look at Lan Yu.
"Godfather, your son…"
However, the current Lan Yu had already fallen into a brainstorm. There was only one thought in his mind, and that was impossible!
This child actually looked so much like his niece Chang Yingzi, and he even looked 90% similar to his grandson Zhu Xiongying!
Lan Yu was just about to go forward and ask a few questions when she suddenly saw an orange-yellow jade pendant on the youth's body.
"Kid, where did you get this jade pendant?”
Qin Mu pointed at the jade pendant on his body when he heard that.
"Are you asking about this?"
Lan Yu nodded heavily.
"Yes, this is it. How did you get this jade pendant?”
Qin Mu said indifferently.
"Hey!"
"Yesterday, I met an old man who insisted on acknowledging me as his grandson and even gave me this jade pendant.”
"Uhh…"
Lan Yu was stunned on the spot. She felt like her brain was about to explode!
Others might not be able to recognize this jade pendant because Zhu Yuanzhang would never wear it usually. He would only wear it when he left the palace in civilian clothes.
Because this jade pendant was a gift from Empress Ma. On it were engraved the words 'Be diligent and frugal, don't forget the commoners.'
The intention was to remind Zhu Yuanzhang that even if he became the emperor, he should not forget about the people.
Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang was usually reluctant to wear it, but when he went out to patrol incognito, he would definitely bring this jade pendant with him.
Firstly, he missed Empress Ma, who had gone through thick and thin with him, and secondly, he wanted to remind himself not to forget his roots.
Ordinary ministers did not know about such matters.
However, Lan Yu was clearly not an ordinary official. He was an old man who had followed Zhu Yuanzhang to start his career and was even related to the old Zhu family.
Therefore, he knew more about the secrets of the royal family than ordinary people.
When Lan Yu saw this jade pendant, she understood everything.
If he had only thought that this child looked similar to Zhu Xiongying before, then with this jade pendant, he could basically conclude that this person was Zhu Xiongying!
At this moment, he thought of another secret of the royal family.
That was the case of Zhu Xiongying's tomb being robbed!
Although Zhu Yuanzhang had concealed this matter and did not make it public.
But to Lan Yu, how could this kind of thing be hidden?
After all, he was Zhu Biao's father-in-law, the uncle of Zhu Yuanzhang's eldest grandson. He was a relative of the royal family!
Could it be that Xiong Ying didn't die and was saved by a tomb robber?
Yes!
That must be the case!
Otherwise, the higher-ups would not have given such an important jade pendant to this child!
Since the child in front of him is Xiong Ying, what should we do?
Go forward and acknowledge him?
This definitely wouldn't do!
With the superior's suspicious personality, if we rashly acknowledge each other, wouldn't we be harming this child?
It didn't matter if he died or not, but if he delayed this child's future and left a knot in Butcher Zhu's heart, then he would be guilty of nothing.
Not only was he too ashamed to see his sister and brother-in-law who had died many years ago, even the Crown Prince and Crown Princess Consort would blame him to death.
I have to endure it!
He must not let anyone see through his flaws!
Many people said that Lan Yu was arrogant and condescending, but no one said that he was mediocre, and no one said that he was stupid.
In fact, how could a person who could walk through Zhu Yuanzhang's butcher knife time and time again be a fool?
Lan Yu only used a few breaths to see the situation in front of her.
Since Butcher Zhu didn't reveal this child's identity, it meant that he was still under investigation!
In other words, even if Zhu Xiongying's identity was made public, he, as a granduncle with a high prestige in the military, could not get too close to him and offend the royal family's taboo...
Unless Butcher Zhu personally entrusted the child to him, he could not take the initiative to approach!
Lan Yu understood this and forcefully suppressed the longing in her heart, pretending to be cold and heartless.
Even though Lan Yu repeatedly warned herself and reminded herself, she still couldn't hold it in when she opened her mouth.
Lan Yu aggressively took a few steps forward. Just when everyone thought that he was going to fly into a rage and personally beat up the officer.
However, he pointed at Lan He and shouted.
"Lan He!"
"Hurry up and get over here and kowtow to this child to apologize!”
