"What the hell! Turns out he's a fake!"
"I heard that Chuzhou is rich. How could a princess like her dress so poorly?"
"If it weren't for Madam Protector of the Nation, we would have been so close to being deceived by her..."
Seeing that Xiao Minru was unable to produce evidence to prove her identity, the originally silent crowd began to whisper and talk again.
Xiao Minru was anxious, and without paying attention to Xiao Qingwei who was winking at her frantically, she hurriedly explained, "I really am Princess Jiamin. I, I deliberately traveled incognito today. I was in such a hurry that I forgot my identity, Yudie."
Xiao Qingwei was momentarily unable to keep his eyes on her and watched helplessly as Xiao Minru revealed her entire identity. He felt helpless, but since things had come to this point, as a doting sister, he could only step forward and admit it frankly. He bowed to Tian An and said, "Qingwei meets my cousin's wife."
Faced with the brother and sister's actions, Tian An remained indifferent. He looked at them with a faint smile, "Little girl, little master! Although I have a good temper, you can't fool me like this again and again!
I just don't go out, I'm not really blind. As a lady of noble birth, I have heard about the fact that Princess Jiamin and her siblings were confined to the post station by His Majesty.
Now someone comes here to impersonate me. Does he really think I'm easy to fool?
Considering that this is your first offense, I advise you to leave quickly. If you continue to make trouble, don't blame me for having you taken to the authorities."
"I, I really am Princess Jiamin..."
Xiao Minru and her brother were still trying to explain, but no matter how they explained, Tian An would not listen at all and insisted that they were liars.
Seeing that the two siblings were stubborn and refused to change their ways, the people watching on the side couldn't stand it anymore and started to persuade them.
"Young ladies, young men! Since the Lady Protector of the Nation has been kind enough to spare you this time, please stop pestering us and leave immediately!"
"That's right. You're so young and can do anything else. Why do you have to do such a conniving thing? You'd better turn back! If you really end up in the government, your life will be ruined!"
"There's no medicine for regret in this world. Don't let a momentary impulse lead you to regret for the rest of your life..."
The people who were speaking were a few elderly people. Although their tone showed disdain for the two men, one could tell that they were sincerely trying to give them advice.
It’s a pity that the two siblings didn’t appreciate it and even started arguing with others.
Seeing how stubborn they were, several old men left in anger.
Tian An watched the two siblings coldly. She knew clearly whether these two people were liars or not. She recognized them the first time she saw them.
Both of them look somewhat similar to Xiao Qingheng, especially Xiao Qingwei. She doesn't believe that they are not brothers.
But so what? The greed in the brother and sister's eyes is as disgusting as their brother.
They want to take over the shop that I have worked hard to run just by talking to them. Who gives them the face?
The way the two of them looked today, it was obvious that they had sneaked out of the post station. As long as they refused to admit it, they would have no way to deal with them.
It would be better if they did something in response to the pressure later. Then they could be arrested and sent to jail. That would be a way to vent the anger of the old couple and get rid of a nuisance to the people.
Tian An thought happily, but he didn't expect these two idiots to be so powerful.
After driving away the old men, Xiao Minru, who had run out of patience, pointed the gun at Tian An again.
"You pregnant woman, are you looking for death? I call you cousin because I respect you, but you are just a country girl, do you really think you are a lady?
Why don’t you respectfully invite us, brother and sister, into your house as honored guests, and then offer us a milk tea shop, or I will make you suffer.”
"How dare you! How dare this ignorant little bastard insult a court lady in the street." Deng Xue, who had been guarding Tian An, stepped forward and pointed at Xiao Minru's nose.
When had Xiao Minru ever suffered such torture? This finger was like poking a hornet's nest, making her go crazy in an instant.
"Someone, someone, come! Kill this slave girl for me..."
After realizing that they hadn't brought anyone out this time, he turned around and threw himself into Xiao Qingwei's arms, "Second brother, second brother, kill her for me, you must kill her..."
Tian An was amazed at what he saw. The more he looked at Xiao Minru's hysterical expression, the more she looked like she was suffering from mania.
"Okay, second brother will definitely help you kill her."
After a lot of effort, Xiao Qingwei managed to coax Xiao Minru into submission. Without saying a word, he drew the soft sword from his waist and stabbed Deng Xue.
However, ever since Zhao Yiming knew that Prince Wenxuan was coming to celebrate the Queen Mother's birthday, he had arranged three layers of guards for Tian An.
Deng Xue shouted, "There's an assassin! Protect the lady..."
All the guards and even the maids and servants were on full alert.
The sword that Xiao Qingwei drew from his waist couldn't even get close to Deng Xue. Even Zhao Yiming's secret guards didn't make a move before the ordinary guards in the mansion stripped his weapons and pressed him to the ground.
Seeing her brother being pinned to the ground with his head down and unable to get up or even speak, Xiao Minru immediately rushed over shouting.
"Let go of my second brother, you lowly people, I will kill you..."
As expected, within a few moments, she and her second brother were pinned to the ground by the guards, staring at each other with wide eyes.
Just now, when they saw Xiao Qingwei draw his sword, the crowd watching the excitement were frightened and fled in all directions. Now that they saw the two men fighting were subdued, they all bravely came closer to eat the melons.
"This, this isn't a liar, it's an assassin!"
Tian An was very happy to see the two siblings transformed from liars to assassins in the eyes of the people, but he looked scared on the surface.
Just as he was about to ask someone to send them to the yamen, he suddenly felt a slight pain in his abdomen.
Frowning and looking at her round belly, she immediately realized what was happening to her.
After taking another look at the brother and sister who were glaring at him with vicious eyes outside the door, Tianan immediately put on a painful expression. He grabbed Xiangtao and Lixiang who were supporting him, and put all his weight on them. In front of everyone, he slowly slid to the ground.
Her voice was filled with fear, pain, and forbearance: "Mammy, I, my stomach hurts. I'm afraid, I'm afraid that I was frightened just now and the baby is about to be born."
When Madam Xiao heard this, she was startled, but then she reacted immediately and called out to the maids and servants, "Quick, take Madam back and prepare for the birth.
Come, go and find the Duke.
And the General's Mansion, quickly inform my mother-in-law..."
A group of people rushed back home, and Tian An did not forget to ask someone to send the brother and sister to the yamen before leaving.
After the gate of the Duke's Mansion was closed, the onlookers finally reacted:
Lady Huguo was frightened by assassins who pretended to be Princess Jiamin's brother and sister, causing her to give birth prematurely.
