If others, Liu Shengsheng could continue to watch, but this old man was over seventy years old. She hated to see the old man and his children suffer the most in her life. How could she watch an old man being beaten to death?
But the woman who hit the person was unhappy, "Who are you? You dare to interfere in any other's business. Do you know who we are?"
"I really don't know who you are, but people on the street say that your lady is kind-hearted. I guess a truly kind-hearted person wouldn't care so much about an old man, right?"
"Is it still reasonable for her to steal things?"
"If she really stole your things, then she really has no reason, but the crime is not punishable by death, right? Is your lady's things so precious? If you touch them, you will have to pay with your life?"
After listening to Liu Shengsheng's words, the woman's face turned red with anger.
The old man on the ground slowly got up, "I really didn't steal anything, it was a misunderstanding..."
"Do you have the right to speak? You thief!"
The woman was fierce.
But suddenly a child's voice came from the crowd, "The old lady didn't steal anything. I saw it. She picked it up from the ground..."
It was a seven or eight-year-old girl. As soon as she opened her mouth, the crowd exploded.
"No way, is it really a misunderstanding?"
"If you're a little kid, who knows if it's true or not?"
"How can a child lie? This must be a misunderstanding..."
"Hey, I've been beaten until my nose bleeds. What's the use of saying it was a misunderstanding now?"
"..."
Various voices spread from the crowd.
Beside the carriage not far away, a boy pointed in the direction of Liu Shengsheng and said: "Sir, isn't that your mask?"
Mu Yanxi, who was on the carriage, slowly opened the curtain. His face had already put on a new mask, "Let's go over and have a look."
"..."
Seeing more and more people watching, the woman who hit her couldn't keep her face off.
"What credibility does a little kid say? This old woman is a thief!"
"Xiao Ru, how can you argue so much with the old man?"
Suddenly a gentle voice came from the crowd, and soon after, a beautiful woman walked over from not far away.
"Didn't I always tell you to respect the elderly? Even if the person is really a thief, you shouldn't do it. Why don't you quickly apologize to the elderly person?"
Liu Shengsheng looked at the woman who spoke quietly, remembering that she actually knew this person.
Liu Qianqian, the half-sister of the original owner, is the second daughter of a concubine in the General's Mansion. Although she is a concubine, she is known as the most beautiful woman in the Fengqing Kingdom. She is known as a person who knows books and is courteous.
There are also rumors among the people that she is King Cang's sweetheart...
For some reason, Liu Shengsheng looked at her a few more times.
At the same time, Liu Qianqian also looked at her, but didn't say a word to her. She scolded Xiaoru and walked away.
Xiaoru followed her aggrievedly.
"Miss, the Queen's birthday will be in a few days. I want to buy some more jewelry and dress up for you. It's all because of the old woman who delayed me..."
"Be careful about your image on the street. Have you forgotten what I said?"
"Know it……"
"..."
"Wait a minute, you two."
Seeing that the master and servant were about to leave, Liu Shengsheng called out to them.
Liu Qianqian slowly turned around, "What else does this girl want?"
Liu Shengsheng knelt down, picked up a silver bag on the ground, and threw it into her arms in full view of everyone.
"Your stuff is lost again."
The corners of Liu Qianqian's lips twitched, and before she could speak, Liu Shengsheng continued: "With so many people watching, this should prove that I'm not a thief, right?"
Looking at the silver bag in her hand, and then at the people whispering around her, Liu Qianqian's little face suddenly darkened...
The old man was even more aggrieved and said: "Yes, it was the same just now. This lady didn't put the money bag properly, and it fell from her sleeve at that time. I was really picking it up for them..."
There was sadness all around.
Now, no one dares to call the old man a thief.
Liu Qianqian's face became increasingly ugly, but in front of so many people, she could only smile.
"I'm really sorry. My servants are not sensible enough and took action without understanding the cause of the matter. Old man, I will be responsible for you. Please be sure to go to the general's residence to get the medical expenses."
After saying that, she pretended to scold Xiaoru for a few words before finally leaving.
As soon as the master and servant left, the crowd of onlookers dispersed one by one.
"I thought there was some excitement, but I didn't expect it was a misunderstanding."
"Is this a misunderstanding? I think it's Miss Liu's maid who is bullying others."
"I really don't know how such a gentle person like Miss Liu could have such a savage maid."
"..."
After the crowd dispersed, the old man suddenly knelt down in front of Liu Shengsheng.
"Girl, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, I would be so embarrassed..."
Liu Shengsheng quickly helped her up, "It's just a small matter, it doesn't have to be like this..."
"No, no, this is about my lifelong innocence. Girl, where do you live? Where should I go to thank you?"
The old man held Liu Shengsheng's hand firmly, but Liu Shengsheng suddenly seemed to see something. While pushing her hand away, he said: "No thank you, no thank you. Old man, you go back first. I have something urgent to do now, so I have to leave first." ha!"
After saying that, Liu Shengsheng ran away quickly...
Look no further.
Mu Yanxi's tone was cold, "Everyone knows that Liu Qianqian is gentle and kind, but now it seems she is nothing more than that."
The attendant next to him said: "Yes, when the old man was beaten, she was clearly watching from a short distance away. She was clearly the one who ordered it, but she came out to pretend to be a good person later. It's really hypocritical."
After a pause, he added: "Speaking of which, that girl is wearing the clothes of a servant of our house. Is she a member of our house? How come I have never seen her before?"
Mu Yanxi didn't speak, just turned around and returned to the carriage.
"..."
Look at the other side.
Liu Shengsheng unexpectedly saw Aunt Li and Aunt Wang. In addition to them, there were two cooks from the palace. At this moment, they were gathering in front of a carriage, seemingly making a large purchase.
This is an excellent opportunity!
While the carriage was parked on the side of the road, Liu Shengsheng secretly hid in the carriage and hid behind a large box.
When the carriage returned to the palace, while the ladies were chatting, she quietly slipped out of the carriage and trotted back to Lengyuan.
"I'll go, this journey has been so smooth..."
Liu Shengsheng ran out of breath and looked back from time to time.
Is it because Nan Muze took everyone out?
Or is there no one on the road from Zaofang to Lengyuan?
I can’t believe she just snuck in like that!
Too lazy to think any more, Liu Shengsheng rushed back to the cold courtyard as soon as she returned to the palace, climbed over the courtyard wall, ran back to the house, changed her clothes, and hid the mask on her face under the pillow...
"Mother, are you out?"
Xiaotang's voice suddenly came from behind. Liu Shengsheng was startled. When she turned around, she saw Xiaotang standing at the door in a daze.
"When did you come here? You walked without making a sound?"
Xiaotang said awkwardly: "I have been sitting at the door, watching you climb over the wall and come in..."
The corners of her lips twitched, and she asked again: "When did you go out? Did you also climb over the wall? Did you go out..."
"I slipped out to look for food. Just pretend you didn't see me and don't mention it to anyone. Do you understand?"
Xiaotang nodded blankly, then shook his head, "No, my dear, you can't sneak out. If the prince discovers this..."
"If you didn't tell him, wouldn't he be able to find out?"
Xiaotang said: "But the prince has just come back, and everyone went out to greet him. He also sent Commander Jiang. Then, Commander Jiang has been waiting outside the courtyard for a long time. The slaves kept lying to him that you were taking a bath..."
"What?"
Xiao Jiang is waiting outside the hospital?
Fortunately, I didn't enter the cold courtyard through the main entrance, otherwise I would have been caught...
Liu Shengsheng's eyelids twitched fiercely, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
