The Cute Peasant Wife: Mian Niang - C298 A haunted house, don't go
Xiao Zongxian indeed wanted to denounce him for his crimes.
However, he couldn’t say it out loud now. He couldn’t ask Gu Xin directly: “Did you give the natural son a green hat?”
Since he couldn’t say it, he might as well start the fight.
Since they were young, the two of them had always disliked each other. In any case, the number of times they had fought had already increased who knows how many times.
Xiao Zongxian did not speak, he brandished his treasure sword and rushed towards Gu Xin.
Gu Yue had never shown him any modesty. Even if they were relatives, they were already enemies, and fighting was no exception.
From the moment Xiao Zongxian appeared at the doorstep of the house of the Marquis, he had already known that this fellow didn’t come with good intentions. However, he still had urgent matters to attend to today, so he had to finish this battle quickly.
As for why Xiao Zongxian went crazy, it was not important.
This wasn’t the first time he had gone crazy. The enmity between the two of them was deep, he wanted to find him even if he didn’t want to.
When Xiao Zongxian’s two lackeys chased out, they saw that the two of them were already battling.
Logically speaking, they should have helped their son under such circumstances. However, since the other party was the prince’s son, they didn’t dare to act rashly.
He couldn’t enter the battlefield either.
Of the two, one of them planned to end the fight quickly while the other planned to settle the old debts together. Both of them used their full strength.
Madam Zheng carried the two maidservants out from the back door of the palace. She still couldn’t believe that she had escaped.
Jiang Ting’s carriage had already been prepared, so the three of them could get on.
The three didn’t dare to stay any longer and quickly helped each other climb into the car.
Jiang Ting put down the carriage’s curtain and drove out of the city.
He remained expressionless, and the three men in the car did not dare to speak to him casually.
Jiang Ting’s mind raced, the Emperor told him to create some trouble, to attract the attention of the, but he did not know if the arrangements were ready.
What was there to do next?
He calculated everything in his mind.
There was a space in the middle for Mian Niang. If she found out about what happened with the Mei Family, she would be very happy.
His mind was racing, but he did not expect to see two familiar figures fighting right after he left the city gates.
Since he wanted to go around, it was already too late. Chang Yi, who was originally helpless, saw his figure and immediately felt like he was looking for reinforcements.
They had never taught him the Mr. Jiang in such a respectful manner. If it wasn’t for his face that showed that he was a stranger that didn’t want to enter, they would have pulled him down from the carriage already.
Jiang Ting gave the reins to them.
Carrying his sword, he walked over.
The people inside the carriage felt that the carriage had stopped. They opened the curtain of the carriage and saw the two people who were beating them up. They were scared out of their wits.
maid said in a low voice: “Madam Zheng, Zheng, Zheng. From what I see, that seems to be the crown prince.”
Xiao Zongxian had kicked him to death, but all of them had seen it with their own eyes. In their hearts, the Crown Prince was the most brutal person there.
After all, Madam Zheng was older than them and had more things to do. She quickly covered maid’s mouth with her hand and shooed.
The people outside the carriage heard the sounds coming from inside and lifted the curtain to see that it was the three of them. They were all exception.
“What do you mean, ‘Mr. Jiang’? Take him out of the city alive? We have to send them back? ”
“Go back? I’ll see if the crown prince will let them go back later! ”
Their voices were not loud.
It was just that they did not want Jiang Ting to hear them, but they did not guard against the few women in the carriage.
It seemed that the moment Xiao Zongxian stopped and saw the people in the carriage, the lives of these women would be lost.
When the three women heard this, their hearts sank for a moment.
They used their eyes to communicate with each other. After going through such a common experience, the three of them were united.
It didn’t matter whether they had met each other in the past or not, or even the status and class, it was more likely that they would be able to return to the Tongzhou alive.
Jiang Ting’s gaze swept past the trees on both sides of the road. He knew that unless there was a moment of danger, that person would not make a move. Now that he was here, there was no need for him to do so.
Closing his eyes, Jiang Ting took out his treasure sword.
Gu Yue Xiao Zongxian and the other two had already seen him, but the only difference was that Xiao Zongxian, who was having difficulty fighting him, let out a cold laugh, and was extremely proud of himself.
However, Gu Xin, who originally had the upper hand, had no choice but to raise his guard.
He did not even place Xiao Zongxian in his eyes, but compared to Jiang Ting, he was not confident at all, let alone if these two people teamed up against him.
He wanted to say something, enrage Xiao Zongxian, and give up.
So be it. He had long since disliked these two. It was good to have a good fight with them.
It was just that he did not expect Jiang Ting to be so strong, he raised his sword and joined the battle.
His arm was pierced, but not a bone was hurt.
This man was quick and ruthless.
By the time Gu Xin felt the pain, Jiang Ting had already retracted his sword. He turned and blocked Xiao Zongxian, who was about to make up for the pain, “Crown Prince, Third Miss.”
His short answer calmed Xiao Zongxian down.
Xiao Zongxian pointed his sword hatefully at Gu Yan, “If I ever see you do something that has let down Wan Yin, Gu steed, natural son will flatten your loyal manor.”
He had matters to attend to today, so he knew that he had to consider the bigger picture. He could not possibly continue to tangle with Xiao Zongxian here.
Therefore, it did not go as far as it usually did.
Even so, Xiao Zongxian was still dissatisfied.
He stared at Gu Xin for a long time before saying, “Slowly settle the score between us two.”
“Waiting.”
Xiao Zongxian turned and left.
Gu Yue rolled up his sleeves and scattered the wound on his forearm. He was in so much pain that his forehead was sweating, but he still smiled as he looked at Jiang Ting: “I’ve underestimated you, your sword skills are really good.”
If that sword was aimed at his throat, Gu Hai knew that he really wouldn’t be able to dodge it.
Jiang Ting gave him a bland look, walked past him, and then said in a low voice: “This is a warning to you, don’t meddle in other people’s business.”
His voice was so low that only two people could hear him.
Gu La smiled, “Please advise me.”
“A haunted house. Prince Rong wants you to stay away.”
Gu La’s body stiffened.
He looked at Jiang Ting and wondered how much he knew and if his every move was monitored by the Prince Rong’s Mansion. If that was really the case, then he would have to be extra careful in the future.
Originally, Xiao Zongxian was prepared to mount the horse. However, when he saw the carriage beside the two long riders, a glint of light flashed across his eyes.
He turned and looked at Jiang Ting: “Who is that person in your car?”
He did not wait for Jiang Ting’s reply and quickly walked over. Raising the carriage’s curtain, he saw three trembling girls and his eyes narrowed.
“Jiang Ting, you want to send them back?”
At this time, Jiang Ting had already arrived behind him, and said without the slightest emotion: “Yes.”
“This journey has been a long one. I am very tired, but I hope that natural son can show some kindness so that you all can relax a little and not suffer any more.”
The three of them looked at him fearfully. Thinking back to what the two of them had just said, they immediately understood that this “kindness” was not the real kindness.
Xiao Zongxian laughed, he extended his hand out and pulled the sword, but was stopped.
“Jiang Ting.” His eyes were filled with rage. “This is the second time you’ve stopped me today.”
“Princess Consort told me to send him back safely.”
“You should still remember who your master is.” Xiao Zongxian’s eyes were sharp and killing intent rose.
Jiang Ting remained unmoved. “Princess Hua-Yang is very sad now.”
Wu Niang’s matter had brought back all the long sealed memories.
At the time when those two rolled together, the pain in the heart of King Rong’s Consort was no less than Xiao Zongxian’s.
One was his biological father, the other was the person he loved. Xiao Zongxian’s heart ached unspeakably, and his fury couldn’t be quelled.
But to the King Rong Concubine, one was her future daughter-in-law and the other was her husband.
She hated that girl and hated her husband. She didn’t mind how many women he raised in his mansion, but he shouldn’t have acted so rashly. He actually put his son’s woman to bed.
She had dealt with that woman, and from now on, the wall between her and her husband was completely separated.
From then on, the King Rong Concubine never ate with him again. After drinking tea, even if he touched something, she would immediately let it be thrown away.
She felt dirty and disgusted.
However, compared to her hatred for the two of them, she felt even more heartache for her son.
He knew the feelings his son had for that girl. He knew how much pain he would feel in exchange for such treatment with a heart full of sincerity.
In this mansion, her son was her only son, and was the reason why she had been able to hold on.
She knew that she could not lose her position as mistress, as her son would always be replaced.
Thus, no matter how much hatred she felt and how much anger she felt, she still stayed in the mansion, firmly guarding the position of her mistress.
But the wound was covered, not healed.
As long as you gently peel off the old wounds, they will bleed and pus.
He was so, and so was his mother.
Xiao Zongxian couldn’t understand the meaning behind his mother’s actions of letting a few people go. It was just a few lives, nothing more.
Ever since he was young, he knew that his status was extremely high and that as long as he wanted to, he could dictate life and death to the emperor’s concubine.
With that kind of mindset, he developed his character of being arrogant in the eyes of evil. But luckily, he wasn’t the type of person who liked killing too much. So, the number of lives on his hands wasn’t many.
But that didn’t mean he was a merciful person, since it was his mother’s idea.
Naturally, he left it to her.
As for the reputation of the Duke Palaces, it was already long gone. Compared to his mother’s thoughts, the rumors and slanders in Tongzhou were not that important.
“Let go.”
He ordered Jiang Ting.
Jiang Ting could see the killing intent in his eyes, and knew that he had changed his mind, so he released him.
He didn’t look at the people in the car anymore. He turned and rode away.
The two chief stewards hurriedly followed behind him.
Jiang Ting put down the carriage curtain and sat on the carriage, he picked up the whip and held onto the reins.
Gu Han had already finished bandaging him up, and was currently sizing him up.
Jiang Ting drove the carriage past him.
He stopped her: “Jiang Ting, I suddenly feel that you are a little interesting.”
