At this moment, Prefect Lan is extremely relieved that his youngest son snatched back that girl from the Luo family on the street, and even more relieved that he acted swiftly to accomplish the task in advance.
As he knows, when imperial family members commit crimes, the House of the Imperial Clan will cooperate with the Ministry of Criminal Justice to investigate. Even if he is guilty now, even if the court's Imperial Emissary arrives, they can do nothing to him; he would still need to be sent to the Capital City for investigation.
Once in the Capital City, he would have his youngest son plead for mercy from the Luo family, ask them to help smooth things over. Even if he can't be exonerated, at least his life can be spared.
But these are just wishful thoughts!
"Imperial family member? Ha ha." Ye Zi'an held a ledger in one hand, his other hand behind his back, and said, "I feel embarrassed to claim myself as an imperial family member, but you have the nerve to do so."
