Song Zhiming is now in a panic. He is afraid of being beaten to death. How can he give up An Zhining's "leg"!
He yelled with a broken gong voice: "Zhining gave me three thousand taels of silver! She also said that after she married the prince, she would help me pay off all my gambling debts. Doesn't this count?!"
"Don't talk nonsense, how could I say that!"
An Zhining stood up with red eyes, her grievance was heartbreaking, "I know you have raised my sister since she was a child, and you love her very much, but you can't turn around and slander me for my sister..."
Seeing An Zhining turning his face and denying anyone, Song Zhiming knew that he might not be able to escape death today, so he laughed ferociously, "I'm slandering you?!"
"If you hadn't changed your swaddling clothes, you, this damn girl, would still be able to enjoy as much happiness in the Prime Minister's Mansion as you do now?!"
"There are rumors in the capital that you are going to marry the prince. You are reluctant to give me hundreds of thousands of taels of silver. I want my life?!"
Song Zhiming spat and took out two beaded hairpins from his arms, "You gave these to me a few days ago and asked me to pawn them for money! Take a closer look to see if this is your thing!"
An Zhining was so shocked that her face turned pale as paper, she staggered back two steps, and kept mumbling, "No...it's not like that!"
Everyone in the Prime Minister's Mansion did not expect that this matter would turn out to be An Zhining's fault, and they were completely speechless for a moment.
"The family affairs in the prime minister's house are really exciting."
Gu Beichen stayed out of the matter and said in a calm tone, "I don't know that the second lady of the prime minister's house secretly thinks that I am the one who is taken advantage of?"
Gu Beichen bit hard on the last few words!
An Zhengqian knelt down with a plop, and everyone behind him was so frightened that he knelt down and begged for mercy.
"Your Majesty, spare your life! There must be a hidden secret in this matter! When I find out, I will give you an explanation!"
An Huaiyu knelt beside An Zhengqian and also pleaded for An Zhining, "Zhining is a simple person and would never do such a thing! And I saw with my own eyes that An Ruowan gave the money to Song Zhiming and returned it. Said that this money is all yours, Prince..."
"Your Majesty! Don't be deceived by An Ruowan! She is uneducated and has no skills in the countryside, and she doesn't know how many ways to deceive people!" An Huaiying also rushed to put the blame on An Ruowan.
Gu Beichen lowered his eyes and looked at the few of them who were eager to explain to An Zhining, and suddenly laughed, "Do you know what the crime is for unjustly accusing this princess?"
The few people who were originally eager to defend An Zhining, when they heard Gu Beichen's words, they all buried their heads and did not dare to speak out.
"If it's too late."
Gu Beichen's voice was particularly cold and gentle, and he looked at An Ruowan with a little amusement in his eyes, "This is a matter for your prime minister's house, and it is inconvenient for me to interfere."
An Zhengqian knelt on the ground and breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the nobleman's cold voice, "Qingfeng, you stay with the princess. After today's business is over, you can return to the mansion."
"It's the prince."
An Ruowan looked at Gu Beichen and understood that he was trying to establish his authority, so she just stood beside him quietly and looked at the people in the An family coldly.
The Prime Minister's Mansion suffered a loss, and An Zhengqian, in order to calm the turmoil, endured the pain and allocated 100,000 taels of silver from the Mansion to the gambling house to settle the matter.
An Zhengqian gritted his teeth and ordered, "Tie this man up! Throw him into the backyard first!"
He turned around and had to greet Gu Beichen with a smile, "Your Majesty..."
Gu Beichen raised his hand to stop An Zhengqian's words and looked at An Ruowan, "Follow me."
An Ruo got into the carriage at night and remained silent without interest.
"Where did your momentum go when you stopped my car and said you wanted to remarry me in public?"
An Ruowan raised her eyes and looked at Gu Beichen, "I would like to thank the prince for this."
Seeing her like this, Gu Beichen was really not used to it. He raised his eyebrows slightly, "After decades of living in this world, what's the point of holding on for the so-called face?"
After hearing what Gu Beichen said, An Ruowan curled her lips and said, "The prince said it quite simply."
"A good man will be bullied by others; a good horse will be ridden by others."
Gu Beichen smiled faintly at An Ruowan, "You are my princess, and everything you do is with my tacit approval. If they have any objections, let them come to see me at Prince Rong's Mansion."
After getting off the carriage, An Ruowan watched the carriage of Prince Rong's Mansion leave, then turned towards the gate of the mansion.
Qingfeng and Caihuan both followed her.
"Caihuan, go find me a strong stick." An Ruowan's eyes were cold.
"yes!"
An Ruowan took Qingfeng to the front hall. The An family clan elders had already left, and the only voice left in the hall was An Zhengqian's suppressed anger.
"An Ruowan is going to destroy our prime minister's house!"
An Huaiying sat aside and muttered, "If we didn't bring her back, how could our Prime Minister's Mansion have encountered so many things!"
An Huaiming spoke for An Ruowan, "Brother, please stop saying a few words. Today's incident clearly has nothing to do with her!"
"Why are you still turning your elbows outward?" Meng Zhiyi wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, "Your sister was bullied so badly. Instead of speaking up for your sister, you spoke to that dead girl!"
An Huaiming frowned, "Mother, Ruowan is your biological child! If you let her hear it..."
"So what if I heard it? Even in front of her, as a mother, I can't say a word to her?" Meng Zhiyi said coldly.
An Zhining sat with Meng Zhiyi crying and crying, "Actually, the third brother is right... If it weren't for me, this matter wouldn't have happened like this."
An Huaiming saw An Zhining sobbing and wanted to explain, but An Huaiying snorted beside him, "Don't worry about him, he just wants to curry favor with An Ruowan because he sees An Ruowan becoming the princess!"
"Second brother! What do you mean by this!" An Huaiming frowned and stood up, "I'm just telling the truth. Is this wrong?"
An Huaiying then slapped the table and stood up, pointed at An Huaiming's nose and cursed: "Since she came back, when have you not spoken to her?! Did I say anything wrong about you?!"
"Bah bang bang!"
There was a crisp round of applause outside the front hall door.
Everyone who had heard the tense situation turned to look outside the hall.
An Ruowan walked in, glanced at a few people, and sat aside, minding her own business, "I haven't seen you in a while. Where's the dog biting the dog?"
An Zhengqian pointed at An Ruowan with a trembling hand, "You are in need of discipline! Your mother and I have decided to send you to Zhuangzi!"
"If it's too late, if something like this happens in the Prime Minister's Mansion today, someone must take the blame."
Meng Zhiyi came to An Ruowan and immediately changed her face, "Mom thought, you have been living in Zhuangzi anyway, so you can adapt to it early when I send you there. When the limelight of this matter passes, in a few days Your father and I will go to bring you back next year."
An Ruowan raised her eyes and looked at Meng Zhiyi, with a sarcastic look on her face, "I'll give you two choices. One is to send An Zhining to Zhuangzi, and the other is to drive An Zhining out of the house. What do you choose?" Bar."
