"Don't..." Seeing the tragic death of their companion, the two women were shocked to realize that they were in danger.
"Please... don't kill me..." The woman who took Lin'er away today begged Bai Rongrong.
But she is the most hateful one here, so... Bai Rongrong decided to leave her for the end.
After killing the third woman, Bai Rongrong looked at the last woman with a tired look, "Do you know why I left you at the end?"
"Why... why?" The woman stared at Bai Rongrong nervously.
"Of course it's because I want to let you go."
He took out the key and opened the cell door, and one person stood aside and said, "Get out, I will tell them."
The woman couldn't believe that she had gained freedom so easily, "Really...really? Can I really leave?"
Seeing Bai Rongrong get out of the way and pointing to the door leaving the dungeon, she slowly moved over step by step, "Thank you, young master, for your kindness!"
But not long after the woman had walked away with her back to Bai Rongrong, Bai Rongrong used a sharp claw to pull out her heart from behind, "Oh, how stupid."
After throwing the heart on the ground casually, he ordered the people guarding outside to come in and collect the bodies of these men and women, and he walked leisurely to Wen Yuan's room.
"Sister Ayuan, it's taken care of."
"Very good, thank you very much."
*
A month and a half later, Lin'er has grown up a lot. Wen Yuan now feels heavy holding her, "Lin'er looks more and more like you now, Master."
"Children must be like their parents." A few people gathered around Wen Yuan just to take another look at Lin'er.
Before Wen Yuan had enough hugs, the servants of the mansion ran into the main hall, panting like cattle, "Sorry, princess, Miss Hexiang got into a quarrel with someone on the street."
"Why did she quarrel with someone? Who was the other party?" Wen Yuan didn't even move his eyelids, still teasing the child in his arms.
The servant was very anxious, "I had a quarrel with the concubine of the eldest son of the Chengbei Tower family."
"How big of a deal is it? If she has a quarrel with a concubine, do I still need this princess to personally come forward?"
The boy who came to report was very embarrassed. Wen Yuan stood up from the chair with an impatient expression and returned Lin'er to Quan, "That's it, I'll go there myself."
After all, he is a member of her own family, and Hexiang works hard and she likes this child quite a lot.
When Wen Yuan arrived, He Xiang and the concubine had not finished arguing.
The concubine took advantage of the large number of people around her and asked her maids to grab He Xiang's hand. She walked up to He Xiang arrogantly and slapped her hard in the face. What kind of status does the Feihua Chenglou family have, and you, a little girl, dare to contradict me?"
Wen Yuan told her people not to speak for now. She hid in the crowd and listened to the woman's words.
"Hmph, you dare to contradict me like this before you even enter Lou's house. What if you have entered Lou's house and entered the eldest young master's yard? Come and beat me too, beat me hard!"
Just when those maids' slaps were about to fall on He Xiang's face, Wen Yuan stopped her in time, "Stop."
Wen Yuan stepped forward surrounded by everyone, "You are so bold that everyone around me would dare to hit you."
How could the concubine not know the master of Feihua City? She quickly knelt down and kowtowed to Wen Yuan. When she thought of Wen Yuan's words, she was still confused about the situation, "Princess Xianyang, you mean...this girl is your maid?"
"Not bad." Wen Yuan asked someone to lift He Xiang up from the ground and bring her to her. She couldn't help but feel distressed when she saw the red and swollen spot on the girl's sky. "First take her home to see a doctor for diagnosis and treatment."
"Since you are from the Lou family, I will go to the Lou family in person today. As for what you just said, I need to verify it with the eldest son of the Lou family."
Her tone did not allow for rejection, and Wen Yuan took the woman and headed to Lou's house in the north of the city.
When the boy from the Lou family saw Wen Yuan, his brows tightened, "Princess Xianyang Jin An, why are you here in person..." Although he was frightened, the boy still bowed to Wen Yuan in a decent manner.
"There are some things that need to be verified with the master of the house."
"Okay, Princess Xianyang, please come in. I will report to the master right away."
The servant led Wen Yuan into the main hall and ordered the maid to prepare hot tea for Wen Yuan. "Princess, please wait for a moment. The master is in the study. I will ask the master to come out right now."
Not long after, Mr. Lou came quickly from the backyard and said, "Princess Jin An of Xianyang, when the princess comes to visit my humble abode, Lou is really in full bloom."
"Lord Lou, I have seen all the contributions you have made to Feihua City over the years. I am here today, firstly, to see you, and secondly, for some matters."
"Did something happen to the people in my house?"
Wen Yuan smiled mysteriously and took a sip of tea, "Today on the street, the concubine of the eldest young master in Lou Gong's house had a conflict with the maid next to me. She even slapped my maid without saying a word and said... … Mr. Lou likes me as a maid, so he came here to ask."
When everyone heard that Wen Yuan came to ask for an explanation from a maid next to him, they all wondered how favored this maid was.
Mr. Lou was stunned for a moment by what Wen Yuan said, but he quickly figured out that it was probably his incompetent eldest son who had caused the affair.
"Go and call the eldest young master." He ordered his servants to bring the man up.
But no matter how he asked him, Mr. Lou always pushed all the questions to He Xiang, "It was her little prodigal hooves that seduced me. I didn't like her, so she used some underhanded methods to cling to the powerful. As for my concubine, why?" I really don’t know if I’ll hit her, but Princess Xianyang is aware of it!”
This man was really a coward. Wen Yuan didn't believe her at all, "Go and bring He Xiang."
The secret guard of the Princess Mansion moved quickly and brought He Xiang from the Princess Mansion in a short time. "He Xiang has met the princess and Mr. Lou."
"He Xiang, please tell me the whole story clearly." Wen Yuan completely believed that He Xiang was not the kind of person who clings to powerful people, so she didn't believe what the eldest son of the Lou family said about her taking the initiative to seduce him.
Hexiang was suffocating in her heart, and with Wen Yuan's order, she was able to say it all at once, "Half a month ago, he and a group of people were drinking and having fun at a street wine shop, and I happened to be ordered by the princess to go there. After buying something, he and his friends stopped me... and used scornful words... After that, he often guarded me in places where I frequented, and said some very obscene words..."
No matter what, she was still a girl who had not left the court, so she felt aggrieved to be taken advantage of by such a man. He Xiang almost cried when she said, "He wanted to forcefully bring me to the mansion to be his concubine, but he heard that I was a princess." The talented people in the government stopped taking action, but he still refused to give up and often made trouble for me. As for his concubine, I don’t know why he deliberately made trouble for me today. I was so angry that I scolded the woman a few times, and then it happened What happened next... Princess, you have seen everything."
Doesn't this make sense?
Wen Yuan smiled faintly without meaning. No one present could see through her thoughts, "Master Lou, is there anything else you want to say?"
"She's talking nonsense! Why does my noble eldest son need to covet a maid?! This is simply ridiculous!"
This was true, but Wen Yuan's expression still showed no signs of loosening, "Go find the owner of the wine shop."
As soon as Wen Yuan asked his men to go find the owner of the wine shop, the young master Lou began to sweat on his forehead. Anyone with a discerning eye could understand what was going on. It was just like He Xiang said, this man couldn't take over.
Soon the owner of the wine shop was brought to the building.
The old man bowed to Wen Yuan first, and then spoke to Hexiang, "Girl Hexiang, what's wrong with such a big battle..."
"It's like this. I sent you here because I wanted to ask whether Mr. Lou was enjoying mint in your wine shop with a group of people half a month ago." Wen Yuan spoke first, which somewhat frightened the old man.
Without thinking, he nodded and accepted Wen Yuan's words, "Back to Princess, there is such a thing. Because Miss Hexiang often goes out to buy things, she also taught the little old man how to make wine in her hometown, so I am very interested in it. She was very impressed.”
"Then what happened? Can you tell me the complete process?"
The old man thought for a while and said deeply: "That day, Miss Hexiang came to the vegetable stall next to my wine shop to buy vegetables as usual. On the way back, she was spotted by Mr. Lou and a group of people. Maybe they were interested in seeing each other or something else. The reason is that he stood up and blocked the way of Miss Hexiang, and said many dirty words. Among them, Mr. Lou proposed to take Miss Hexiang as his concubine, and Miss Hexiang was so frightened that she threw away everything in her hands. Run in the opposite direction.”
So that's it... No wonder, no wonder He Xiang's eyes were red when she came back last time, and she even dropped the vegetable basket. She said she met a gangster, but she didn't expect that to be the case.
"Do you have anything else to say now? Mr. Lou."
The words "eldest son Wen Yuanlou" were spoken very seriously. Now that the witnesses are here, what else can the man say... he can only kneel on the ground and wait for Wen Yuan's punishment.
But the expected anger did not subside. Wen Yuan brought up the incident of the concubine who had just arrived and beat someone, "The concubine who did it in the street, let's pass it on."
The woman knelt in the main hall, not daring to raise her head, her shoulders trembling, "Raise your head." Wen Yuan's voice was cold and without warmth, which frightened the woman.
She raised her head tremblingly, and gestured to the night owl beside her with her warm eyes.
This is one of the few female secret guards around her. She is agile and is Wen Yuan's sharp blade in the dark night.
Ye Xiao took the order and stood in front of the woman. The concubine looked up at her with her neck raised, the tears falling from the corners of her eyes were crystal clear, and her little appearance really made people pity her.
"Snapped"! The clear sound of a slap resounded throughout the building, accompanied by a woman's scream, "Ah!"
"Everyone in the princess's house is my face outside. You name her and she is a person close to me, but she slaps me in the face."
"Hit me, hit me hard!" That day, continuous slaps echoed in the building.
