"Help! Second Miss, please help!"
"Everything I said is true! There is absolutely no lie! Please spare my life, Prince An! Please save us, Miss Second!"
The two servants saw that they were about to be dragged away by Lian Ye and Shen Geng. There was no need to think about what would happen, so they were so frightened that they begged loudly for mercy. Even though their bodies were hurting, they continued to struggle. With.
The cry for help from two servants of the Duke of Feng finally woke up one person in the crowd. She immediately stepped out of the crowd. It was Lei Manhe, the second young lady of the Duke of Feng, who was named the head of Ruirong County. !
At this time, Lei Manhe still had that cool and elegant look, but his eyes were stained with a somewhat indistinguishable look, and his eyebrows were slightly frowned.
She raised her eyes to face Wu Zechen and looked carefully at this man with a stern face. Unable to avoid feeling a little uneasy and timid in her heart, she forced herself to calm down and said: "Prince An, you treat the subordinates of our Duke's house like this." I'm afraid it's not suitable for people, right? They were just telling the truth, why did they lose their lives because of it? Are they not even allowed to tell the truth?"
Then, she turned her eyes and looked at Xia Luotong, who was standing next to Wu Zechen, who had been holding hands with Wu Zechen. A dark light flashed across her eyes, and she said coldly: "Princess An, if you are afraid of people's comments, then you should discipline yourself." Instead of waiting until someone exposes your words and deeds, you will think of killing someone and silencing them."
Lei Manhe was somewhat sure of what he had ordered. Although he did not understand why Prince An refused to listen to the testimony of his subordinates and insisted on defending Princess An, Lei Manhe believed that the previous arrangements would be certain. It was completed, so she had the confidence to say such words at this time.
However, her tone was so strong at this time, and she even got a bit quarrelsome when facing Princess An. The reason was that she was angered by Wu Zechen's attitude!
Prince An, who was so powerful and powerful, why did he have such bad taste in the man he fell in love with? !
Lei Manhe really couldn't figure out what Wu Zechen liked about Xia Luotong? That nice-looking skin? Or is it the only piano skill that can be achieved? Just these alone can make Wu Zechen defend with all his heart, even such an enviable trust?
In her opinion, apart from these two people, Xia Luotong had almost nothing else that he could offer! With a humble background, how could he be compared to any noble girl in the capital? !
It was precisely because he looked down upon Xia Luotong so much that Wu Zechen's defense of him was so dazzling in Lei Manhe's eyes, making her feel ashamed and angry!
Compared with the ups and downs of Lei Manhe's mood, Xia Luotong, whom she hated, was actually peaceful.
Since leaving the house, Xia Luotong has been quietly observing the second daughter Lei Manhe, the daughter of Ruirong County and the daughter of Duke Fengguo.
Compared with the eldest daughter who is already a princess, Lei Manhe is not as elegant and noble as her sister. She is friendly and dignified in everything. Lei Manhe's temperament is simple, direct and cold, which is rare. She likes the noble ladies in the capital and can get close to her.
The eldest daughter's status as a crown princess was determined almost when she was born, so from childhood to adulthood, the eldest daughter was raised with the goal of being a princess, and everything was strict.
In contrast, the second daughter Lei Manhe is much happier. Without this heavy burden on her, her life is much easier. She is also more favored by her family. It is not an exaggeration to say that she is the apple of the Duke of Fengguo's palace.
It was precisely because she grew up in such an environment and had such a profound background that her family even granted her the title of county head. All these factors made Le Manhe develop a temperament that no one looked down upon.
Looking at Lei Manhe like this, Xia Luotong secretly thought, no wonder, the more temperamental a noble lady is, the more she will feel that ordinary men are not worthy of her, so she must look for the best, and the best in Beijing is , and the age is quite suitable, there are only a few in total, but in the end, they fell in love with Prince An Wu Zechen...
It's just that Xia Luotong really can't have any good feelings for this woman who has taken a fancy to a married woman and directly assassinated her original wife in an attempt to steal someone else's husband. She even only has disgust.
Even in a dynasty like the Zhou Dynasty where men had three wives and four concubines, this behavior was still looked down upon.
Seeing the hostility in Lei Manhe's eyes, Xia Luotong slowly raised the corners of his lips and raised a sneer: "What is your identity? A mere county head with a foreign surname, do you deserve to talk to me like this? Teach me the rules? How about that?" Do you really think you are the daughter of the royal family?"
When Lei Manhe heard that Xia Luotong said that about him, he immediately darkened his face, but before she could say anything else, Xia Luotong continued: "Feng Guo Gong's family is really well-educated. The daughter of the family is actually a good at smearing others? She dares to pour dirty water on others without any evidence at all. It is really eye-opening. "
Lei Manhe was angry at what Xia Luotong said, and her eyes were full of coldness, but she really couldn't refute the matter of identity.
Princess An's status was especially above hers, indeed much higher than hers. If she hadn't been habitually looking down on Xia Luotong's background, she wouldn't have subconsciously said such words just now, letting Xia Luotong catch her. Attack yourself when you have the opportunity.
Although Lei Manhe was the apple of Fengguo's palace and was loved by all, she was not a brainless person, so no matter how angry she was, she suppressed the anger in her heart and skipped the content about her identity. .
Focusing on what happened tonight, Lei Manhe said coldly: "Now that two servants from the palace have testified, how can Princess An be said to be throwing dirty water? Doesn't the testimony of the servants count as testimony?"
As she spoke, she glanced at Wu Zechen and continued: "Besides, we just want Princess An to reveal the whereabouts of Mr. Zhang. Why is Princess An so reluctant? Could it be that something happened to Mr. Zhang? "
Although it is a pity that Li's arrangement did not work out, it seems that nothing happened to Xia Luotong at this time. He did not fall in love with the incense, let alone had anything happen to Mr. Zhang.
But this arrangement and opportunity cannot be in vain. Even if Wu Zechen cannot doubt Xia Luotong, it would be better if Xia Luotong's position in Wu Zechen's heart can be lowered.
At this time, Lei Manhe had this plan in mind. Although his purpose was different from Li's, the starting point was the same, which was to discredit Xia Luotong and ruin her reputation! Disdained by everyone in the capital!
