There was a sudden tense situation in the garden, and the housekeeper next to him had already been dumbfounded.
Xia Yunxian's voice was like the spring breeze, and she said the most domineering and unreasonable words in the softest tone, "Didn't the second aunt understand clearly? Yunxian is such a character. If you know what you want, you should return the key to the vault, otherwise today, Yunxian will Stay for dinner."
She moved lightly and actually sat down at the stone table beside her. She was enjoying the flowers and blowing the wind happily, while Chunxiao stood behind her wholeheartedly and patted her shoulders. The two of them seemed not to see Zhou at all. His face became increasingly gloomy.
what happened?
This girl has been bullied in the Liu family for five years. She has suffered so much for being dumb. Why has she become sharp-tongued now?
Moreover, she remembered that Xia Yunxian used to be a well-educated, filial and righteous person. How could he be so arrogant and arrogant?
"It seems that you have become the Crown Princess. You think my orphaned and widowed mother is easy to bully, so you come here to shame me?"
"Second aunt is joking. Is it bully to persuade you to return something to its original owner? What is it called if you don't return something that belongs to someone else?"
Chunxiao immediately replied, "I know this, that's called a rogue!"
"Who are you calling a scoundrel?" Zhou felt that her face was dull and she glared at Chunxiao coldly.
"Whoever scolds someone is a scoundrel! The second lady is so excited. Is it because she has a guilty conscience?"
"That's unreasonable!"
She slammed the scissors in her hand on the table, "If Yun Han hadn't begged me to help him manage his family, why should I ask for trouble! Look at what he has squandered in the General's Mansion!"
Xia Yunxian smiled even deeper, "Thank you, Yunxian."
"You! Are you planning to burn bridges? I understand. It was Mrs. Liu who asked you to get the key. She has not taken care of her mother's family for several years since she was married, and now she plans to use her mother's family's money to support her husband's family! How are the eldest brother and sister-in-law going to support themselves? Got such a white-eyed wolf!"
Zhou's eyes were filled with contempt, but Xia Yunxian remained unmoved.
"Even so, Yun Han has no objection. Why is the second aunt worried? Besides, the second aunt has bought so many gold and silver jewelry for the two cousins. Have you asked Yun Han what he means?"
In order not to accuse a good person unjustly, Xia Yunxian had ordered Xiao Wu to inquire around before he came. Sure enough, he found out that not long after Zhou got the key to the vault of the General's Mansion, he often took his two daughters in and out of various golden buildings. What's the latest? No expense should be spared on jewelry and fine silks.
This was completely different from her usual calculating style. Who would believe it if it was a coincidence?
There was a lump in Zhou's throat, and she immediately understood that Xia Yunxian had come prepared, but quickly sneered.
"How much money did he spend on those little bitches in Goulanyuan to buy some jewelry for his cousin? If I hadn't helped hide it, Yunhan's reputation would have been bad. Which girl in Beijing would dare How about discussing marriage with him?"
She made no secret of the threat, but she didn't know that these words completely dispelled Xia Yunxian's worries.
It seems that the second lady did not know about Su Han, and only thought that Xia Yunhan was simply obsessed with visiting brothels, so he spent money like water.
"Whether Yun Han can discuss the marriage, I don't need to worry about my second aunt, but if I offend Mr. Bai, my two cousins will not be able to get married even if they dress like gods."
What? !
Zhou was stunned immediately, and soon a famous servant came from outside in a panic.
"No, madam, several guards from the White House blocked the door!"
"what have you done?!"
Zhou's heart skipped a beat and she immediately looked at Xia Yunxian. You must know that since the second master died in the battle, her house has not caused any trouble. Those evil spirits were naturally attracted by Xia Yunxian!
"Didn't Yun Han tell the second aunt that he punched Bai Yujing? This matter cannot be solved without 1.8 million taels."
Hearing this, Mrs. Zhou felt a little dizzy, and the woman who had been feeling fearless just now panicked, "Who gave him the courage to hit anyone who is not good enough to dare to hit... Get out! Get out quickly, don't be a drag." us!"
"It's all a dead end anyway, so why not drag a few people with you? Second Aunt, don't leave. Then Yun Xian will go back and wait for news from you!"
Looking at the figure who was almost running away, Xia Yunxian smiled softly.
She finally knew how useful Bai Yujing's notoriety was, but Chunxiao was a little worried, "Prince Concubine, is the second lady really willing to let go?"
"The second aunt is so shrewd that she will not let her greed harm her two daughters. She will definitely order her servants to return the key to the general's mansion immediately so that she can draw a clear line!"
But Yun Han...
The two got on the carriage, but Xia Yunxian was not in a good mood.
Originally, after her parents passed away, she should have taken more care of her only brother, but she was tripped up and blinded by the scandal of the Yongding Marquis Mansion.
I just want to make up for this mistake now, but I don’t know if it’s too late.
The carriage that was supposed to take her to the western suburbs stopped in front of a house. When Xia Yunxian saw it, it turned out to be the Bai Mansion!
"My subordinates have received news that the Lord has been injured again. No one dares to enter his house now, except to trouble the Crown Princess!" Xiao Wu smiled sarcastically and ran away without a trace.
Xia Yunxian couldn't help but take a breath. What could she say?
If I had known this, it would be better to stay with the Second Madam and listen to the cold words than facing Bai Yujing.
But as soon as he stepped into the garden of Bai Mansion, the sporadic blood stains on the ground that spread to the attic made Xia Yunxian change his mind.
"Is your master still angry?"
"Ah? Also..." The guard guarding the door was stunned.
"Human life is at stake. With so much blood shed, it would be safer to summon the imperial doctor." After saying these words, Xia Yunxian turned around and left. She didn't want to see the guy looking like he was dying.
Unexpectedly, a deep voice came from the attic immediately, "If you dare to leave, I will break your legs!"
Xia Yunxian looked up and saw that the pale man had been leaning on the railing wearing a white coat at some point, looking down at her with a sinister gaze.
His body was wrapped in thick gauze, and a few pieces of blood were faintly showing at this moment. Xia Yunxian looked stern, and the guard next to her quickly stuffed a bowl of prepared concoction into her hand.
It's really ridiculous. Didn't he go to comfort the frightened Princess Xian?
What kind of trouble was it to get injured all over?
After entering the main room, she smelled a strong smell of blood. The ground was covered with bloody strips of cloth and clothes. Bai Yujing, who was sitting on the couch, had his back to her, revealing the shocking whip marks on his back. .
"Been punished again?"
She remembered that Bai Yujing said last time that every time someone sues him for imperial edict, he will be whipped.
"Oh, after we suppressed the bandits, there are so many jealous people! They said I skinned people and frightened the refugees. Do you think I was being hypocritical?"
For some reason, the coldness in Xia Yunxian's eyes softened for a long time. He was being punished, not for protecting Princess Xian's injuries.
Bai Yujing immediately caught a glimpse of the slightly raised corners of her lips, and suddenly reached out and pulled her into her arms, "Are you happy to see me dying, or are you in a better mood to reunite with Huo Changsheng?"
