When Li Xiaoran looked over, she saw the woman in red raising her glass and gesturing at her.
Li Xiaoran could sense that the other party had no ill intentions towards her, so she smiled and nodded in agreent.
The bailiffs who had surrounded Li Xiaoran and the other two were already caught between a rock and a hard place.
They couldn’t afford to offend Young Master Dou of the Minister of War’s family, so they could only brace themselves and take this woman away.
“What do you know?” The leader of the bailiffs, Yan Fanyi, scolded sternly, “Not all cris are as simple as they seem! All kinds of things need to be investigated by adults. Now, we have reason to suspect that this woman is related to this murder case. If you guys say another word, we’ll punish you guys as accomplices!”
When Li Xiaoran heard this, she imdiately clapped her hands in praise.
“Alright, alright! I’ve really broadened my horizons this ti! At the end of the day, you’re just bullying people who don’t have a powerful background! You’re picking on the weak. But why are you so sure that I’ll take it lying down? Aren’t you afraid that my identity, background, and background are even more powerful than that of the Minister of War’s son?”
When Yan Fanyi heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he imdiately sneered.
“Don’t threaten . I, Yan Fanyi, have seen many won like you! Take her away. We can’t let the murderer be so arrogant!”
When the surrounding bailiffs heard Yan Fanyi’s words, they imdiately planned to attack.
This ti, everyone felt worried for Li Xiaoran.
Pei Xuanxin looked even more worried and his mind raced as he thought about how to save her.
When the woman in red who had spoken earlier saw that the bailiffs actually wanted to forcefully bring Li Xiaoran away, she imdiately grabbed the sword beside her and planned to save Li Xiaoran.
At this mont, a man’s voice entered everyone’s ears.
“Oh really? I want to see who can take my wife from today!”
When Li Xiaoran saw Luo Cheng walking in from outside the teahouse, she smiled.
“I also want to see who’s so bold as to slander my seventh sister-in-law!” Ling Heng said with a smile.
As the two of them spoke, the situation in the teahouse changed drastically.
Everyone who had been worried about Li Xiaoran just now laughed out loud.
The group of bailiffs, especially the leader, Yan Fanyi, broke out in cold sweat.
At this mont, Yan Fanyi recalled what Li Xiaoran had said previously and imdiately regretted it.
Why was he so unlucky? He was just doing his usual patrol. How did he get involved in this ss?
Seeing that the situation had reversed and that Li Xiaoran was actually the Seventh Prince’s consort, who was the talk of the capital, the woman in red smiled. Then, she put down her sword and continued to drink.
“Why aren’t you talking now?” Luo Cheng stared at the bailiff called Yan Fanyi as he asked coldly.
Yan Fanyi felt terrified. At this mont, his teeth were trembling from Luo Cheng’s intimidating aura.
Luo Cheng stared at Yan Fanyi as he said, “You were very arrogant just now and you wanted to fra my wife without any evidence. Why don’t you dare to speak now? As bailiffs patrolling the streets, you should maintain the security of the streets and alleys in the capital. Unexpectedly, despite taking the taxes paid by the commoners, you guys only know how to flatter and bully the commoners! It seems that it’s ti for the bailiffs in the capital to be reshuffled!”
“Seventh Brother, you’re right. It’s indeed ti to deal with this matter! During this period of ti, more and more incidents have happened in the capital, and students from all over the world have gathered here. If the security isn’t good and the people of our governnt get injured, that will be a crisis! When I et the emperor tomorrow, I will ntion the security of the capital to my father so that the commoners can live and work in peace!” Ling Heng said seriously. Yan Fanyi’s legs went weak and he fell to the ground. He knew that he was dood.
If there was really a major crackdown in the capital, those who were dealt with would definitely hate him to death.
After all, without what he had done today, the others wouldn’t have been implicated.
Yan Fanyi’s heart skipped a beat and his gaze suddenly landed on Li Xiaoran, who wasn’t far away.
Thinking that the cause of all this was Li Xiaoran, Yan Fanyi kowtowed in Li Xiaoran’s direction and begged for forgiveness.
“Please forgive for my ignorance! I have an old mother and a pair of children. Please forgive this ti!”
Li Xiaoran didn’t say anything when she saw Yan Fanyi kowtowing to her.
If Luo Cheng had not appeared in ti today, she would have suffered even with Zi Zheng and Wu Qinghe protecting her.
She was lucky to be married to Luo Cheng. That was why this bailiff begged her for rcy.
If it were anyone else, would this bailiff have acted like this?
NO!
Li Xiaoran Iw very well what kind of people these people were, so she wouldn’t forgive them at all.
“Now, you know how to beg for rcy, but when I didn’t reveal my identity previously, did you ever think of letting off to catch the real murderer?” As soon as Li Xiaoran said this, Yan Fanyi was speechless.
If Li Xiaoran wasn’t the Seventh Prince’s consort, he definitely would have forcefully arrested Li Xiaoran and pinned this woman’s death on her.
“You wouldn’t have let off! Similarly, I won’t let you off either! Do you think there won’t be retribution for your habit of bullying the weak and fearing the strong? Wrong, it’s not that they won’t take revenge, but the ti hasn’t co vet. When the ti cos, the heavens will naturally settle scores with you.
Today, it’s ti for you to bear the consequences of your actions!” Li Xiaoran said coldly.
Li Xiaoran couldn’t sympathize with such a person at all. Moreover, from this man’s emotions, she could tell that he was definitely not a kind person.
He must have done similar things in the past.
Thinking of this, Li Xiaoran thought of sothing else.
“Husband, I think this person has probably done this sort of thing quite often in the past! Why don’t we investigate carefully to see if there’s anything fishy about the cases he handled?!”
