Chapter 1578 Lawless
However, he did not expect that Shao Yunduan would speak.
No one else expected that Shao Yunduan would speak!
Not to mention that Shao Yunduan gave people the impression of a gentle and refined scholar, just the fact that he was an official appointed by the imperial court and openly challenged a servant was so degrading!
If it were them, they would never do such a thing.
Unless it was the Fourth Prince, as Wen Fuxin's master, it would be appropriate for him to scold Wen Fuxin.
But the Fourth Prince did not want to let others have a preconceived idea of what was going on. When he heard Wen Fuxin speak, he subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. He was about to glare at him to show his appreciation and let him speak first.
I didn't expect Shao Yunduan to be so uncouth!
An aide to the Fourth Prince couldn't stand it any longer, and said with a sneer, "Master Shao, why do you have to argue with a mere servant? This is a bit too... beneath your dignity..."
The prince looked embarrassed and immediately felt even more uncomfortable.
"Your Excellency is wrong," Shao Yunduan said solemnly, "A mere servant in the Fourth Prince's mansion dares to be so disrespectful to the Crown Prince. What would others say? They would definitely say that the Fourth Prince has ulterior motives and that the Fourth Prince simply does not take the Crown Prince seriously. Otherwise, how could a small servant dare to be so presumptuous? Wouldn't this damage the Fourth Prince's reputation? I am doing this for the Fourth Prince's own good!"
"How can the rules of the royal family be taken lightly? Why can't we be serious about it? Go ask the officials in the Ministry of Rites, is it that a servant can ignore the Crown Prince just because he is a servant and others are embarrassed to argue with him?"
The aide was choked, and cursed Shao Yunduan in his heart for his quibbling and specious arguments, but he also lowered his head and dared not say anything.
The fourth prince glared at Wen Fuxin fiercely and shouted in a deep voice: "You little slave! Who allowed you to speak so carelessly? Aren't you trying to sow discord between me and the prince? Why don't you apologize to the prince now!"
As he spoke, his eyes swept across Shao Yunduan fiercely, as if he wanted to skin him alive.
Wen Fuxin was so frightened that his face turned pale. He kowtowed to the prince repeatedly in a hurry: "I am innocent! I am innocent! Prince, please have mercy. I have absolutely no intention of disrespecting you. I am just afraid that Master Shao will speak nonsense..."
"Alright, I won't bother with you, leave now."
The prince couldn't help feeling uncomfortable when thinking about Shao Yunduan's words. When he heard Shao Yunduan apologizing, he always had something to say to criticize Shao Yunduan. He couldn't help feeling disgusted. He thought to himself, no wonder Shao Qing was so angry and didn't give him any face at all. This kind of dog slave and cunning servant is really not a good thing.
The prince was not a man without sense of propriety, so he naturally had to give Shao Yunduan face at this time: "Shao Qing, please continue."
Shao Yunduan replied, "My wife is the person involved in this matter, Qiao, you speak."
"Yes." Qiao Xuan told him everything.
Finally, he asked Liu Fu and others, and they told the truth.
It was so humiliating, so wronged and so sad that he couldn't help wiping away tears and choking up with sobs as he spoke.
All the ministers looked at the uncle and nephew of General Manager Wen with unfriendly eyes, and the Crown Prince was even more angry.
Zheng Sangge and the other two were all distressed and indignant. Wu Guan gritted his teeth and spat, wishing he could just beat the bastard to death with a few punches and kicks.
General Sun was furious: "This is too much! How abominable! How can you humiliate a few children like this? Is this still a human being?"
