Chapter 68
"Where did this stupid thing come from? If you want to die, don't drag me down with you!" Zhou Fenghua glared at Luo Jing'an angrily and scolded.
You know, even his father would show deference to Prince An.
In Zhou Fenghua's eyes, Prince An was a madman and also the emperor's confidant. If he said a few bad words about the Zhennan Prince's Mansion in front of the emperor, the Zhennan Prince's Mansion would probably never have peace again.
Although Zhou Fenghua was a scoundrel, he also knew very well that in this capital city, there were people he could offend and people he couldn't.
Obviously, Xu Heming was someone he didn't dare to provoke.
In the past, when Prince An was selfless and impartial, no one dared to provoke him.
If this brother - in - law was so blind as to provoke this unlucky star...
Just thinking about this possibility, Zhou Fenghua shivered in fear and wailed inwardly. He hoped this couldn't be true.
If Luo Yingying's family really had no sense and offended Prince An, wouldn't it be a disaster for him?
Thinking of this, Zhou Fenghua began to regret marrying Luo Yingying, a wife who had no discernment.
Xu Heming ignored the people from the Zhennan Prince's Mansion and led the three children straight into the inner hall.
"What? Why can they go in?" Luo Jing'an, who still didn't understand his current situation, pointed at Xu Qingshi and the others following Xu Heming and complained discontentedly.
Just thinking that he was still waiting outside while they went in, Luo Jing'an wanted to drag those annoying guys out and beat them up.
"Nanny Chang, slap his mouth!" The Princess of Zhennan felt as if she couldn't catch her breath. Where did this stupid thing come from?
How dare he slander Prince An?
The Zhennan Prince's Mansion didn't want to be implicated by this guy who had no sense!
"Slap! Slap! Slap!"
Nanny Chang had long been annoyed with Luo Jing'an. Didn't he know that what he said might bring disaster to the Zhennan Prince's Mansion?
Thinking of this, Nanny Chang increased the strength of her slaps.
"Mother - in - law!" Luo Yingying looked at her younger brother with distress.
She thought that the Princess of Zhennan letting the servant slap her younger brother's face in public was a complete disgrace to her.
The thought of currying favor with the Princess of Zhennan instantly vanished.
She was the Princess's daughter - in - law, not her servant. How could her younger brother be slapped at will?
"Mother - in - law, my younger brother is young and doesn't understand things. But if he has done something wrong, my parents will teach him. No matter how angry you are, you shouldn't let the servant slap his face here!" Luo Yingying glared at the Princess of Zhennan angrily.
"What do you think you are?" The Princess of Zhennan gave Luo Yingying a cold look, as if she were looking at some kind of garbage. She sneered inwardly. She didn't want to slap that dirty thing's face at all. If it weren't for fear that he would implicate the Zhennan Prince's Mansion, she wouldn't even spare him a glance.
Seeing that her daughter was about to quarrel with the Princess of Zhennan, Madam Luo felt a bit guilty, but she quickly grabbed the corner of her daughter's clothes. Although her son was wrong, this mother - in - law was really too disrespectful to them.
However, if her daughter fell out with this mother - in - law, how could they ask them to save her and her son later? After thinking for a while, Madam Luo looked at the Princess of Zhennan and said,
"Mother - in - law, I don't know what my son An'er said to make you so angry. I'll apologize on his behalf."
"Who's your mother - in - law? Don't try to get on familiar terms here. I don't know what tricks you used to get this blind and stupid thing to marry your daughter. You'd better pray that you haven't used the name of the Zhennan Prince's Mansion to swagger around and cause trouble outside. If you've brought disgrace to the Zhennan Prince's Mansion, don't say what others will do to you. The prince and I will be the first ones not to let you off!" The Princess of Zhennan was feeling extremely uneasy standing in this yamen, and these stupid guys still wanted to draw attention to themselves.
The Princess of Zhennan had always looked down on Luo Yingying. How could she be willing to be called "mother - in - law" by Madam Luo at this time?
Moreover, she always felt that being summoned to the yamen today didn't seem like a good thing.
"Mother - in - law, since Yingying has married your son, we are a family now." Madam Luo replied with a bit of uneasiness in her heart after hearing what the Princess of Zhennan said.
She had raised her daughter for so many years and married her into the Zhennan Prince's Mansion, but the Princess of Zhennan's attitude was really hurtful, as if they were some kind of scourge.
Although the Luo family was not as noble as the Zhennan Prince's Mansion, they shouldn't be trampled on like this.
The Princess of Zhennan was of high status, but she couldn't just let the servant slap her son's face.
Thinking of this, Madam Luo's face also turned sour.
Zhou Fenghua on the side just felt impatient. After all, he had married Luo Yingying only because she was easy to control.
Inside the hall, when Xie Jincheng saw Xu Heming coming, he was about to speak when he saw the three little tails behind him.
"I thought you were going to send them back. Why did they come again?" Xie Jincheng looked at the three children and asked in confusion.
"Dad, we came here with Uncle Xu on our own. The pretty aunt was injured while saving us. We want to avenge her." Xie Yanzhi quickly stepped forward to explain.
"They should learn to face things. Since they want to come, let them come and see the world." Xu Heming explained in a low voice.
"Okay!" Xie Jincheng thought that what Xu Heming said made sense. He couldn't protect them behind him forever. These children could be regarded as the next - generation successors of the three families.
It would do them good to see the ways of the world earlier.
At the same time, he looked at the people outside the hall, and his hatred deepened. Those people thought others were ants that they could bully at will, but in front of him, weren't they just like ants?
When Li Zhiwei woke up, she saw the Old Princess sitting by the bed with a pained look on her face.
"Old Princess." Li Zhiwei wanted to get up and salute the Old Princess, but the Old Princess held her down.
"My child, just lie down." The Old Princess said quickly.
"Are you feeling uncomfortable after waking up? I'll call the doctor to check on you." The Old Princess asked with concern.
"I'm fine. Are the little princes okay?" Li Zhiwei only vaguely remembered that Xu Heming had come, and she didn't remember what happened later. At this moment, she was a bit worried about the safety of Xu Qingshi and the others. After all, she had risked her life to protect the children.
If something happened to the children, she would feel sorry for all her injuries.
"They're fine. Thanks to you for protecting them. Otherwise..." The Old Princess thought of this and still felt terrified.
"And... the prince?" Li Zhiwei didn't see Xu Heming in the room. She wanted to ask something but didn't know how to put it.
"He's gone to deal with those scoundrels. You just take good care of your injuries. Don't worry, he will definitely seek justice for you." Thinking of those who had hurt her grandson, the Old Princess was also very angry. The Zhennan Prince's Mansion had a lot of nerve.
The Minister of Dali Temple looked at the people from the Zhennan Prince's Mansion below, gently slapped the gavel, and asked, "Lady Qin, Princess of Zhennan, Prince An, the Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, and the Marquis of Yongning have accused your Zhennan Prince's Mansion of sending people to murder Xu Qingshi, the son of Prince An, Xie Yanzhi, the eldest son of the Xie family, and Jiang Yu, the son of the Marquis of Yongning. What do you have to say?"
