[1] After Breaking Off My Marriage, I Became A Powerful Minister's Treasure

381-382

Chapter 381: Would he be surprised by the consecutive "surprises"?

After listening to Shi Qingluo's profound words, Old Lady Xiao roughly understood what to do.

"You mean to use Ge Chunru's crime to threaten Second Son Xiao?"

"Not a threat, but for an exchange." Shi Qingluo replied.

"She ordered people to beat up an eighth-ranked county government official, Eldest Grandson Xiao, and her in-laws. This is a fact. If my ex-father-in–law doesn't agree, you can say that you want to sue him and make Ge Chunru spend the rest of her life in prison. If he doesn't agree, you can use your identity as her in-laws to get rid of this unfilial Ge Chunru."

"We can still go to the capital magistrate to sue her if we're in the capital, but how do we sue her at the northern border?" asked Old Lady Xiao after some thought.

"Zheng'er is just a county magistrate, she can't control Second Son Xiao, right?"

Second Son Xiao's rank as a deputy governor or something seemed to be quite superior.

It was said that held the highest rank besides King Jin and the governor.

"Of course, my husband can't control Deputy Governor Xiao." Shi Qingluo replied, "But aren't there two other people above him? The third prince is not the governor of Northern City, so you can go directly to King Jin's residence to file a complaint."

After all, this is his fief.

Didn't King Jin want to win over Xiao Hanzheng's scumbag father? She wanted to create an opportunity for him.

Let King Jin fight with Xiao Hanzheng's scumbag father or work with him to find the treasure first.

Before her young hubby left the capital, the emperor gave him an important task, which was to keep an eye on King Jin and his scumbag father and find the treasure.

His scumbag father had half of the treasure map, and Zhuo Jun's mother had the other half.

They also had the key to the treasure.

They could only find the treasure after the two of them worked together.

An opportunity was present now.

Old Lady Xiao was stunned. "I'll go and find King Jin. Will he care?"

Shi Qingluo laughed.

"Of course, don't look for him alone. You have to find him when he's on the road. You have to cry your grievances in front of so many people. If King Jin wants to maintain justice in Northern City, he has to seek justice for you. Also, you don't have to worry that your complaint will cause Deputy Governor Xiao to lose his position. After all, this is not the capital, and King Jin has no right to appoint or dismiss him. Ge Chunru can be punished. After all, she broke the law."

Hearing this, Old Lady Xiao agreed.

"Alright, if that b*stard Second Son Xiao is not willing to demote his wife to a concubine, I'll bring my family to complain to King Jin."

Her second son, that beast, could not lose his position.

After all, they still had to let Eldest Grandson Xiao inherit the general's residence in the capital, which was currently the deputy governor's residence.

"That's right." Shi Qingluo laughed.

"You can use the same method you used on them in the capital at the northern border. Doesn't matter if this method is old as long as it's useful."

Xiao Yuanshi and Ge Chunru both cared about their reputation the most, so they had to hit the bull's eye.

Old Lady Xiao's smile deepened. "You're right, Qingluo. Your idea works. Ge Chunru and the others are now locked up in the prison. How are we going to bring them away?"
