The prince of Maoguo?

After searching in her mind, Jiang Yuzhu suddenly realized that the person she had protected Xie Zhao some time ago was the one who assassinated Duke Mao.

As a member of an old noble family, Duke Mao has always been guilty of evil deeds and has done many shady things in secret.

Once Duke Mao dies, the Crown Prince will take over this position.

In the book, Jia Xinglin, the prince of Maoguo, is a villain who acts ruthlessly without regard for the consequences.

However, Xie Xuan is Xie Zhao's cousin after all. How could Jia Xinglin dare to act so brazenly? He must have made preparations long ago and had a backup plan.

Jiang Yuzhu narrowed her eyes and thanked Princess Yutan: "Thank you for telling me, Princess."

Xie Xuan's stay at Xie's house was not just a matter of meddling in Jiang Yuzhu's affairs.

Another thing is, who the hell is Jia Xinglin? How dare he bully the person she likes?

If Xie Xuan is taken care of a little longer, he can be one of your supporters in the future.

Princess Yutan raised an eyebrow, not expecting Jiang Yuzhu to be so polite. She asked, "So, are you going to take care of it or not?"

Based on Princess Yutan's understanding, Jiang Yuzhu is extremely selfish and there is a high possibility that she is indifferent.

Jiang Yuzhu touched her chin. She had to take care of it, but her image couldn't be ruined.

So she asked in surprise, "What are you talking about, Princess? In the capital, with Jiang Yuzhu here, even Jia Xinglin has to lie low. Xie Xuan can only be bullied by me. Who does he think he is?"

Princess Yutan: "..."

Jiang Yuzhu ran into the alley. At that moment, Jia Xinglin was gathered in a circle with the lackeys of the noble families, laughing loudly.

"Xie Xuan, you are the only talented person from Jiangnan who came to Beijing to take the imperial examination?"

A vicious look flashed in Jia Xinglin's eyes. Today he brought people to cripple Xie Xuan's arm. How would Xie Xuan take the exam?

The Xie family does not get along with the nobles, and the clan cannot allow someone like Xie Zhao to appear in it again.

"Boss, as the saying goes, one cannot blame the crowd. Let's attack together. Even Xie Zhao won't be able to do anything to us."

The old nobles all have backgrounds. As long as they don't kill anyone, someone will cover for them and the matter will be left unresolved in the end.

Jia Xinglin picked his teeth with a bamboo stick and kicked Xie Xuan: "If you want to blame someone, blame your brother. Otherwise, you wouldn't be implicated!"

The sky was dark and a cold wind was blowing.

In the crowd, Xie Xuan had been pushed to the ground.

He brushed off the dirt on his clothes, his face showing determination as he demanded, "What on earth do you want to do?"

Jia Xinglin, the son of the Duke of Mao, spat and said with a crooked smile, "What for? You should ask Xie Zhao. If you meddle in other people's business, you must bear the consequences."

"Xie Xuan, this prince will give you a chance. As long as you lie on the ground and bark like a dog, I will spare you this time. How about that?"

After saying that, everyone burst into laughter.

Xie Xuan gritted his teeth and turned his head away.

A gentleman can be killed but not humiliated. Even if he dies here today, he must have integrity and must not bring shame to the Xie family.

After thinking about it, Xie Xuan felt a little regretful. He was far worse than his third brother.

The third brother Xie Zhao has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and is proficient in both civil and military strategies, while Xie Xuan himself is just a scholar who is powerless.

Jia Xinglin waited for a moment, but saw no reaction from Xie Xuan, and smiled sinisterly: "Yes, he is still a tough guy. I like to punish people like this the most. I will beat you until your mother doesn't even recognize him, and you will find teeth all over the floor!"

As he spoke, Jia Xinglin stepped forward and was about to step on Xie Xuan's hand.

At the critical moment, Jiang Yuzhu brought her maid into the alley and kicked Jia Xinglin in the butt.

"Who attacked me?"

Jia Xinglin staggered, finally managed to steady himself, and turned back to glare.

Jiang Yuzhu crossed her arms, her eyes expressionless: "Who are you, my father?"

Jia Xinglin frowned immediately, his mind racing.

Damn, that bitch Jiang Yuzhu is here!

Jia Xinglin was not afraid of Jiang Yuzhu, but the Jiang family was not easy to deal with, especially the brothers Jiang Huaida and Jiang Huaiqing, who were like blood-sucking leeches and could not be shaken off.

If he bullied Jiang Yuzhu, Chen would definitely come to his house to scold him.

This family is weird, so try not to offend them if you can.

After some thought, Jia Xinglin asked, "Why, Madam Xie, are you here to complain?"

There have been outrageous rumors circulating in the capital lately, saying that Xie Zhao was abducted by Jiang Yuzhu, and that the couple visited brothels together.

Even though Feng Qing swore that he saw it with his own eyes, Jia Xinglin did not believe it. He admitted that Xie Zhao was a clean person who would never be tainted by filth. He went to the brothel to catch Jiang Yuzhu.

"Jiang Yuzhu, you have so many tricks up your sleeve. Xie Zhao's head is already covered in grassland!"

After saying that, Jia Xinglin took the lead and the lackeys laughed extremely wildly.

At this moment, Xie Xuan on the ground was extremely angry. He could tolerate being humiliated, but if someone said bad things about his third brother and his wife, he would fight to the death!

"Jia Xinglin, go to hell!"

Xie Xuan went crazy and rushed straight towards Jia Xinglin's stomach.

He has been living in Xie's house recently. His third sister-in-law is particularly nice to him. She always asks the kitchen to cook according to his taste, and there is no shortage of cakes, pastries and supplements.

Afraid that he would hurt his eyes while reading, she also gave Xie Xuan a bright lantern!

"Jia Xinglin, you dare to tarnish the reputation of my third brother and his wife? I will kill you!"

Xie Xuan was crazy, but Jia Xinglin was stunned.

What's wrong with this scholar? He was willing to die rather than surrender just now, but now he wants to resist?

As if hearing a huge joke, Jia Xinglin pointed at Jiang Yuzhu and said, "What kind of reputation has she left? Does she still need this prince to tarnish it?"

It's not that Jia Xinglin is being modest. In terms of arrogance and domineering, he would rank behind Jiang Yuzhu.

"Okay, you still dare to say something bad about my third sister-in-law?"

Xie Xuan only believed what he knew. It must be that his third sister-in-law had a good family background and was beautiful, so she was granted marriage to his third brother. These people couldn't get her, so they were jealous and slandered her behind his back!

Princess Yutan, who had followed with concern, held her forehead. How had Xie Xuan been led astray? Jiang Yuzhu was poisonous!
