《The Fortune of Rebirth: The Counterattack of the Princess》C35. Being Caught
Advertisement
"You don’t need to be angry, My Lord. Now he's surrounded. Just untie the veil on her face and we can know who she is" Liang He already knows who she is, but he deliberately says so.
Today, the Prime Minister is also invited to wait here to arrest the thief justifiably. In any case, Yan Shuang is the second daughter of the Prime Minister. If the Prime Minister sees his daughter with his own eyes, then the effect will be unexpectedly good!
Yan Ling feels funny, naturally, she knows that what Liang He is thinking about. In fact, Yan Ling really wants to see what kind of expression Yan Shuang will have at the moment when her veil is lifted.
Yan Ling feels funny and coughs to cover up her expression.
"You are right, Your Royal Highness. I was confused." the Prime Minister says with his head lowered. He feels that the Crown Prince's expression seems strange.
Prime Minister Yan looks at the dark figure surrounded by people, and feels that she is familiar. When the Crown Prince's men take away the bundle from the person and brings him to the front, Prime Minister Yan's heart.
"Shuang’er!" Prime Minister Yan looks incredulously at the people in front of him, the whole person is suddenly stunned and speechless.
"Help me, father..." Yan Shuang is pale now.
Yan Shuang is clear how severe the crime is to steal the Emperor’s gifts. What's more, it's a big deal now. She cannot take the responsibility if she is reported.
Yan Shuang realized that it was not good when she heard in the hall today that the Emperor sent the Crown Prince and Yan Ling to investigate this matter together. If not, Yan Shuang would not take the jade pendant out and throw it away herself because she could not trust her servants.
Yes, Yan Shuang is really going to throw away the jade pendant. Yan Shuang is very clear that the Crown Prince’s fellows are capable and strict. If she throws away the jade pendant, they will find it soon and give it to the Crown Prince, and then no one will doubt her.

Because of this, Yan Shuang told no one about this, not even the Prime Minister and Mrs. Yan. After all, this matter will affect the whole Prime Minister's House. Yan Shuang dare not tell them about it.
However, Yan Shuang did not expect that Liang He and Yan Ling had anticipated that she was the culprit. They even prepared the trap outside the Prime Minister's House, waiting for her to take the bait.
Liang He doesn’t care about the Prime Minister Yan’s angry face. Instead, he takes the brocade box from his subordinate. He opens the box and carefully checks. He takes a breath of relief after finding the jade pendant is intact.
Then Liang He hands the brocade box back to his subordinate to keep it for the time being. After all, the jade pendant is found, so it doesn’t need any attention now. The most important thing now is how to deal with Yan Shuang.
"Shuang’er, you'd better explain this to me clearly, otherwise no one can save you." The hall of the Prime Minister's House is well lit. In addition to the Prime Minister and Yan Shuang, there are only two people in the room, Liang He and Yan Ling.
"Shuang’er, I didn't think it was you who took my jade pendant." Yan Ling's face is cold, as if she couldn't believe it.
Yan Shuang shakes her head in a panic and explains: "I'm just confused for a while, I didn't mean to take it..."
"Miss Shuang, His Majesty has attached great importance to this matter. I'm afraid that we can't cover it up with your ‘bewitched’. Why did you do it? Please explain it clearly." Liang He takes a sip of tea and says slowly.
Aware of the pressure from Liang He, Yan Shuang shudders and subconsciously turns to her father. However, Prime Minister Yan is also angry now. How can he save her?
Prime Minister Yan really didn't expect that Yan Shuang would do such a thing, and she planned to deal with it by herself without telling him after the matter had deteriorated so much.

If he had known about the jade pendant before this, Prime Minister Yan would have countless ways to solve it. However, he didn't know it. Now that Yan Shuang was caught by the Crown Prince on the spot, what else could he do?
Now, Prime Minister Yan only hopes that Yan Shuang can explain this thing clearly. Much as he feels ashamed, he will ask Yan Ling to plead in front of the Crown Prince to see if he can let it go now that the jade pendant has been found.
Seeing the Crown Prince's feeling for Yan Ling, Prime Minister Yan thinks that this is a feasible way. If there has to be a culprit, it's not hard to find someone to bear the crime.
Although there are many people present today, they are all controlled by the Crown Prince. As long as the Crown Prince agrees with it, he naturally doesn't have to worry about them.
Seeing that her father doesn’t want to step in, Yan Shuang feels afraid, and begins to answer.
"It's Qing'er who hated my sister for driving her out, so she stole the jade pendant and gave it to me. I was afraid that my sister would misunderstand me, so I had to hide it." Yan Shuang still refuses to tell the truth.
Hearing this, Yan Ling couldn't help sneering and feeling disappointed.
"Shuang’er, I arranged for Qing'er to work with the housekeeper. She came back to my yard without telling me yesterday, half a month earlier than my arrangement. I asked the housekeeper and he said it was your order. So, are you not going to admit it?"
Yan Ling slaps the table and makes a sad look.
Yan Shuang didn't expect that the lie would be revealed so quickly. She quickly explains: "it was Qing'er who came to beg me and said that she wanted to go back to you as soon as possible. I felt pitiful for her, so I agreed to help..."
"Miss Yan Shuang, do you really think it's impossible to prove after you sent Qing'er away? I already found Qing'er, and she admitted that you asked her to do it. Do you want us to bring her here and let her confront with you, Lady Yan Shuang?" Liang He says with a sneer.
Yan Shuang falls to the ground and seems to lose all her strength suddenly. She didn't expect that Liang He and Yan Ling already knew so much. The reason they didn't catch her is that they have been waiting for her to fall into their trap tonight.
Prime Minister Yan looks at Yan Shuang and feels angrier, as if he is exasperated at Yan Shuang’s stupidity.
He doesn't understand why Yan Shuang still wishes for a fluke until now? Does Yan Shuang really think that the Crown Prince is so easy to be fooled?
The Prime Minister's House has been involved in this matter. Yan Shuang doesn't tell the truth even though she was caught on the spot. Prime Minister Yan doesn't know what to say about Yan Shuang.
"Shuang’er, I will give you another chance. Explain all the things clearly. Your elder sister and the Crown Prince will deal with it according to the law. If you refuse to tell the truth, I can't save you, either." Prime Minister Yan can't give up Yan Shuang anyway.
Looking at his father's eyes, Yan Shuang seems to know that this time she cannot cover things up with a few words, so she has to tell them the truth.
