Domineering Female State Advisor - C37
Liu Wanzhou immediately rushed over, afraid that Liu Shuyuan would say something wrong and offend someone he shouldn’t have. That horse, if he wasn’t wrong, was the Battle-King’s personal mount, “Lightning”.
As soon as he reached the door, he heard Liu Shuyuan calling for the soldiers to be thrown out. He quickly joined in. In this world, he would rather offend the Emperor than the Battle-King.
A person who could ride on a Battle-King’s horse had yet to appear, but this morning, this girl had ridden on it to come to the Liu family. What did this mean?
This meant that the relationship between Fang Ning and the Battle-King was not ordinary. He immediately made a decision. As long as this girl was satisfied, why would sacrificing a branch matter?
“Wait a minute, who was the person who cursed Miss Fang earlier?”
“Patriarch, I, I …”
“If a woman doesn’t stay in the backyard, she’ll come out and interfere in business! My Liu Clan will never do something like repaying kindness with enmity! “Miss Fang, please do let me down.”
“…” Dongfang Ning was confused by this sudden change. Was he putting on an act or was he putting on an act? What was he trying to do?
“Liu Wanzhou, you clearly know that Miss Fang is not good with words, yet you want her to send out a servant. Isn’t this making things difficult for her?” “I think we might as well sell it …”
“You!”
“What’s wrong with me?”
Wei Lingyun’s venomous tongue was well-known among all the young masters of aristocratic families. They could have sold an old lady who was a few dozen years old, but this old lady’s identity was extraordinary.
This was really slapping his Liu family’s face, but what could he do about it now? He wasn’t afraid of the Wei family, but this woman was being followed by the Battle-King, so he had no choice but to forcefully hold back his anger. Wei Lingyun, we will slowly find you for this debt.
Anyone who could sit in the position of Patriarch would have their own path to success. After Liu Wanzhou adjusted his mood, he calmly said:
“I’ll do as Young Master Wei says …”
“Patriarch, please spare my mother …” “Wu ~ She’s old …” When Liu Ruyuan heard this, he did not care about etiquette and hastily interrupted his work. Sell his mother? What the heck!
He did not know why the Patriarch’s expression suddenly changed as he hurriedly begged for mercy. When he saw Liu Wanzhou give him a look, he quickly kowtowed to Dongfang Ning and said, “Miss Fang, my mother has offended you. If she wants to punish you, then punish me, my son. I’m willing to take the blame on behalf of my mother. Please …”
The difference between the exalted status of the ancient people was this great? At this moment, Dongfang Ning was extremely shocked. A single clan dominating a region was actually being controlled by a single clan head?
A woman of this age, with a son, a daughter, and a grandson. She was insufferably arrogant in this family, but the head of the family had said that she would be sold, so would she really be sold?
“Um, forget it, I didn’t lose anything.”
“Thank you, Miss Fang! Thank you, Miss Fang!” The old lady who had been so arrogant a moment ago actually knelt down and kowtowed again and again, not even daring to raise her head.
Dongfang Ning finally understood what a noble family was and what status was.
“Since Lady Fang is so magnanimous, why don’t you just scram!” Seventh Uncle, go outside and see what’s going on. Why are the soldiers here?
Having offended someone, he emphasized the words, and the fox-like Liu Liuyuan immediately understood the meaning behind his words. This Fang Ning was definitely not a simple person, otherwise his family’s Patriarch would not have done such a thing. He thanked Dongfang Ning again before hurrying to the front courtyard.
“Liu Wanzhou, you have eyes!” “Fang Ning, let’s go to the front courtyard to watch the show as well.”
Wei Lingyun proudly waved his fan and followed Dongfang Ning to the outer courtyard.
Liu Residence
Wang Chengcai and his party were seated opposite to each other on two long benches.
Outside the Liu Family compound, there were three layers of civilians surrounding it. A large, black mass was surrounding it, making it seem very scary.
“Witch? Lord Wang, you said that the esteemed guest of my Liu family is a demoness? ” Liu Shuyuan had received the approval of Liu Wanzhou. Although this scene made his legs go soft, he naturally would not hand over the people. As long as he settled this matter, the Patriarch would definitely use him again.
“Uncle Guo, you don’t know? What demon …”
“Demon?”
“Ah, which side of Ning …” Wang Chengcai couldn’t continue any further. He didn’t dare to offend the Liu family, so he turned his gaze towards Imperial Physician Yang at the side and silently asked for help.
“Uncle Liu Guo, the Son of Heaven has committed a crime similar to that of a commoner. Although that demoness saved your son’s leg and became a guest at your Liu residence, but with more than a hundred murders in your hands, you have to think carefully before you speak!”
“What a joke! According to Imperial Physician Yang’s conjecture, those people who died happened last night five hours ago, and last night, everyone knew that Fang Ning was attending my son’s treatment. I wonder how she managed to escape to a mountain five kilometers away to commit a crime, and then return from a mountain five kilometers away?
Could it be that you are jealous of him for curing you of the injury on your leg that you cannot heal, so you decided to take this opportunity to bite back? ”
When the onlookers heard this, they felt that it made sense!
“So that’s how it is?”
“Last night, Fang Ning was at the Liu Estate. Everyone knows that we wronged her!”
The commoners were not brainless either. It was just that everyone’s words made sense. They only knew that they had to find excuses for those who had died. They didn’t really understand who was right and who was wrong.
“Hahahaha!” Uncle Liu, I advise you to hand over the criminals, it is not worth it to protect a demoness who has committed such a heinous crime. You said that she was always at your residence last night, could it be that Uncle Liu also took a step into this matter? ”
“Stop slandering us! “Nonsense!”
“Fellow villagers, one hundred and ninety-one lives, could the Liu family cover the sky with one hand?” Yang Zhongming turned around to look at the people outside the yard. Yesterday, he dared to embarrass him, today he must drag the Liu Family down with him.
“We must give the dead villagers an explanation and capture them!”
“Take down Demoness Fang Ning!” Avenge the dead villagers! ”
Yang Zhongming’s gentle sentence made the people side towards him.
“Imperial Physician Yang, you can eat whatever you want, but you can’t say whatever you want. What proof do you have that Lady Fang is a witch, and that my Liu family has become an accomplice? Do you know that Lady Fang’s house is located on a mountain?”
“Is Uncle Liu really going to protect her?”
“Capture the thief and take out any evidence. If there is no evidence, then you will have to pay back the humiliation that you bullied my Liu family with a hundred times the price!”
“Uncle, Uncle Liu, I’m afraid there’s a misunderstanding …” The more Wang Chengcai listened, the more uncertain he became. Let’s not talk about the many suspicious points in this case. He could not afford to offend the Liu family. Heavens, who was going to save him?
“Mayor Wang, are you a person that fears power and doesn’t dare to make decisions for the people?”
Seeing that Wang Chengcai had the intention to go against him, Yang Zhongming immediately and strictly faced the masses:
“Fellow villagers, did nearly two hundred lives go to waste? That Fang Ning went back to Shan Yang Mountain in the middle of the night, while Uncle Liu took it as a forgery …
Last night, my follower was guarding the Liu Family Compound. He personally saw that demoness head towards Shan Yang Mountain, and saw that she was the only one left in the village after everyone died. Everyone tell me, was it her doing it? ”
“Kill the witch!”
“Kill the witch!”
“…”
