155 Ice That Was Three Foot Deep Was Not Frozen in a Day

Yu Niaoniao first greeted Duke Lang before sitting down behind the desk familiarly and speaking to the students.

“Today, I’ll show you how to draw the suspect’s image according to the witness’s oral description. Look carefully later. If you don’t understand anything, you can ask questions at any time.”

The students answered obediently, “Yes.”

Yu Niaoniao picked up her brush and dipped it in ink. She looked at Prince Min and asked.

“Tell me, what did the man look like?”

Prince Min was very dissatisfied. “You’re an unimportant girl. What right do you have to interrogate me?”

Yu Niaoniao was not angry at being rebuked.

She even smiled good-naturedly.

“You have to know your place. Look up and see where you are. Look clearly and think clearly before deciding if you want to continue being stubborn.”

Prince Min became even angrier. “How dare you threaten me?”

Yu Niaoniao put down her brush. “Since you’re not cooperating, I’ll leave for a while and let Little Lo entertain you well.”

Seeing that Duke Lang had no objections, Lo Pingsha spoke to the Eagle Guards guarding the door.

“Take Prince Min to the torture chamber.”

As soon as he heard that he was going to the torture chamber, Prince Min immediately panicked.

He cried out in horror. “I’m not going to the torture chamber! I’ll talk! I’ll say anything!”

Yu Niaoniao looked at him calmly. “Aren’t you like a donkey? You didn’t listen when I spoke to you properly. I had to whip you twice before you would listen.”

Prince Min was furious and humiliated, but he did not dare to retort. He could only repeat that sentence.

“I’ll tell you everything. I’ll tell you everything.”

Yu Niaoniao picked up the brush again. “Alright, I’ll give you one last chance. Tell me about that person’s appearance and characteristics. Start with his eyes.”

Every question she asked was extremely detailed, making Prince Min very impatient.

He felt that the other party was just holding a grudge and deliberately took the opportunity to make things difficult for him and laugh at him.

There were several times when he wanted to flare up, but in consideration of Duke Lang standing beside her, he held back.

When Yu Niaoniao brought a portrait of a Daoist priest to Prince Min and asked him if he was this person, Prince Min’s eyes widened.

He blurted out in disbelief.

“It’s this priest! How can you draw it so well? It’s like a real person!”

Initially, he thought that Duke Lang was using his position to seek revenge and wanted to use this opportunity to help Yu Niaoniao vent her anger. He did not expect that Yu Niaoniao was really capable and could draw that wandering Daoist priest vividly!

Prince Min stared at the portrait again and again. The more he looked at it, the more he thought it looked like him. He could not help but ask.

“Have you met the traveling Daoist?”

Yu Niaoniao handed the portrait to the students for reference. She casually replied, “I’ve never seen him.”

Prince Min said, “Then why can you paint people so vividly?”

Yu Niaoniao laughed triumphantly.

“Of course, it’s because I’m good!”

Prince Min did not want to believe that the girl in front of him was really that powerful, but the portrait was in front of him and he could not deny it.

He replied stubbornly, “Child’s play!”

Old Ge could not bear to see his master being despised and immediately reprimanded him sternly.

“If not for the portrait drawn by Sir, you and your son would have to bear the crime of spreading anti-government poetry and plotting against us! Do you actually dare to say that this is an insignificant trick? You really don’t know what’s good for you!”

Prince Min was furious, but he could not argue. His old face turned red.

He simply ignored these people and said to Duke Lang.

“I’ve already told you everything I know. Shouldn’t you let me go back?”

Xiao Juan said calmly, “You’re our important witness now. We need to ensure your safety. Before the case is investigated, please stay in the Justice Department for the time being. Haven’t you always wanted to see your son? I’ll let you and your son stay in a cell so that you can catch up.”

Prince Min was trembling with anger. He wanted to curse, but he did not dare.

What did he mean by for his safety? Didn’t he just want to lock him up?!

What kind of sin had he committed to provoke such a murderous god?!

Prince Min was taken to a cell by the Eagle Guards and locked up. When he saw his old father locked up with him, Shen Xu’s expression was complicated.

After class, Yu Niaoniao quickly packed up and prepared to get off work.

She said to Duke Lang, “I’m getting off work early today.”

Xiao Juan asked her what she was going to do.

Yu Niaoniao said, “I have to prepare something in advance tomorrow.”

Xiao Juan stood up. “I’ll accompany you.”

Yu Niaoniao was naturally happy to have additional free labor to help carry things.

Hence, the Eagle Guards saw Duke Lang and Miss Yu leave the Justice Department together.

That in itself was not unusual.

After all, Duke Lang and Miss Yu had been together every day recently. Everyone was used to the two of them coming and going.

...

But this was different-

This time, Prince Lang actually got off work early!

He was a famous workaholic in the Justice Department. He would never be late or leave early unless necessary.

However, before it was time to leave, Prince Lang had actually fled with his little wife!

This was clearly skipping work!

The Eagle Guards looked up and sighed. Indeed, love made people lose their minds. Even Duke Lang had fallen in love!

Yu Niaoniao and Xiao Juan went to West City.

The originally noisy street instantly fell silent the moment Xiao Juan appeared.

Everyone froze and looked at Xiao Juan in unison.

Their eyes were filled with horror and fear.

It was as if Xiao Juan took another step forward, they would immediately escape.

...

Xiao Juan stopped and whispered to Yu Niaoniao.

“Go shopping first. I’ll be back soon.”

Yu Niaoniao agreed.

Xiao Juan turned around and left West City.

As soon as he left, West City was bustling again.

Yu Niaoniao heard the vendors on the street talking softly.

“Oh my god, I was so scared just now. I thought the Eagle Guards were going to arrest us.”

“Fortunately, he’s gone. Otherwise, we wouldn’t even have this business.”

“I wonder why the Imperial Court is raising such a group of Eagle Guards? They only know how to capture people all day long, making it difficult for people to live peacefully.”

“Stop it, stop it. Don’t let the Eagle Guard spies hear you.”

... .

There were many other conversations like this.

When Yu Niaoniao heard this, she felt very upset.

In the eyes of the commoners, the Eagle Guards were evil ghosts who killed without batting an eyelid. They were existences that they were afraid of.

However, after spending some time together, she felt that the Eagle Guards were not as terrifying as the rumors said. They were actually a group of ordinary people with flesh and blood.

There was no need for the commoners to ostracize them so much.

She had to think of a way to improve the Eagle Guards’ reputation in the hearts of the commoners.

But ice that was three feet deep was not frozen in a day.

This could not be rushed. She had to find the right opportunity to change slowly.
