At the gate of Lord Liu Yan’s mansion.
Liu Yan was transferred to Beijing only last August. Due to time constraints, he could only buy a house far away from the imperial city. The Second Prince rushed here right after the court session and arrived near noon.
"I am a stupid servant. With your status as a master, there is no need for you to come to their small place in person. Not to mention being the principal wife, even if you give her a concubine, she is not worthy of you."
Eunuch Xu, who was beside the Second Prince, said that when he heard that the Second Prince wanted to marry a concubine's daughter of a fifth-rank official, he thought his ears were broken.
The second prince glanced at Eunuch Xu and said, "What do you know? Go and knock on the door."
When he thought that his fiancée was in there, she was the future queen, and if he married her, the position of crown prince would definitely be his. As long as he thought about the scene of moving into the East Palace, he was so excited that he wanted to get married immediately.
Eunuch Xu suppressed his emotions. He couldn't understand what had befallen the Second Prince. He went forward and knocked on the door. "Bang, bang, bang", after a while the door opened and a head popped out from inside.
"Who is it?"
This man was the doorman of the mansion, named Li Wen. He had set the table and had just drunk half a catty of wine. He was enjoying it and was very angry when he was interrupted. As the saying goes, alcohol makes cowards brave, and he took advantage of the alcohol to speak in a very unfriendly tone.
When Eunuch Xu saw that this person was so rude, he said unhappily, "Open your dog eyes and take a good look. The second prince has arrived. Hurry up and let Liu Yan come out to greet him in person."
"Bah!" Li Wen became even more arrogant after hearing this. In broad daylight, someone pretended to be a prince. What was the Second Prince doing in their house? Did he have a crush on their daughter?
funny!
Eunuch Xu was spitted all over his face. Oh my, it was really true that there were unruly people in remote areas. He had finally seen it today. He got angry and slapped Li Wen in the face. "You dare to neglect the second prince, you are looking for death."
Li Wen didn't even have time to react. After being slapped by Eunuch Xu, he slapped him back even louder.
Eunuch Xu was stunned. What did this mean? Was this still the Southern Liang Dynasty? The Second Prince came to my house, and the doorman dared to hit him?
"Get out of here, get out of here. If you dare to be so arrogant again, I'll let the dogs bite you," Li Wen cursed.
Today, his master took his wife and daughters to his father-in-law's house. There was no master in the house, so he dared to drink like this. He was interrupted when he was drinking happily, so he mustered up the courage to drink.
The tone of voice is also very strange.
Eunuch Xu was furious. He pointed at Li Wen and gritted his teeth, "Okay, okay, okay, we'll wait here and see if that old bastard Liu Yan is going to rebel."
His scolding really pissed off Li Wen. Liu Yan had saved his mother's life and given him money for a proper burial. He was a great benefactor to their family. If someone scolded Liu Yan in front of him, he would kill him.
"Wait, wait," Li Wen turned around and went back. After a while, two dog barks were heard from inside.
Before Eunuch Xu could react, a big dog jumped out and pounced on him.
"Oh, help, help."
After being knocked down, Eunuch Xu fought with the dog with all his might.
The second prince beside him also cried out, "Stop hitting, stop it, make the dog stop, oh, someone is dead, come, help!"
He had seen animal training shows, but when the vicious dog fought in front of him, he was so scared that his legs went weak and he didn't dare to move forward.
Eunuch Xu's shouting attracted people to watch, but no one dared to step forward. He was no match for the dog and had no ability to fight back.
Suddenly, there was a scream. Looking down, I saw Eunuch Xu twitching and blood gushing from his neck.
The whole process took only a few breaths, and no one had time to react.
Eunuch Xu was still unconscious. He had never imagined that the Second Prince's personal eunuch would die in such a way, without any warning. He was unwilling to accept this.
When the second prince saw the blood, his head started buzzing. What happened?
Li Wen was half sober, so how could someone die?
He hurriedly called the dog in and looked at Eunuch Xu twitching on the ground. He became more and more frightened. The master and the mistress were not in the house. What should he do?
The Second Prince was stunned. He was here to discuss marriage! What, what, what was going on?
In order to keep a low profile, he did not bring any guards. Who could have imagined that such a thing would happen? In his imagination, Liu Yan invited him in with great trepidation. After he told him the purpose of his visit, he could clearly feel Lord Liu's excitement. He turned a concubine's daughter into a prince's consort, and Liu Qian immediately became the focus in the circle of noble ladies in the capital.
Now I haven't even entered the door yet.
"It's not my fault, it's not my fault," Li Wen said, unable to speak clearly.
The second prince now realized that Liu Qian was more important. She was just a servant, so he should be given a proper burial.
"Go and call out your master, I want to see him," said the second prince.
Li Wen suppressed his fear and pretended to be calm, "The master and the lady are out."
When they were in Yunzhou, they were considered to be people of status in the local area. Now that they are in the capital, surrounded by nobles, the tone of his voice has also been lowered a lot.
The Second Prince was speechless at this. Was he not here? Such an unfortunate coincidence? Good things must come to those who wait.
At this time, people from the city defense camp came here for inspection, and the second prince stepped forward and showed his playing cards.
"Meet the Second Prince."
The people from the patrol camp saluted.
The second prince pointed at Eunuch Xu on the ground and said, "Take him back to the palace for me."
After saying that, he mounted his horse and flicked the whip, "Wait for your Lord Liu to come back and tell him what happened today, and say that I will come again another day."
Li Wen was already scared silly. It really was the Second Prince. Oh my God, the Second Prince, that was the Second Prince.
He felt that he might not live beyond tomorrow and just nodded subconsciously.
The second prince ignored him, whipped his horse and ran into the crowd.
Li Wen stood there stupidly. What should he do now? What should he do?
Oh, Aunt Rong is at home. He suddenly remembered Liu Yan’s favorite concubine Tian Rong. She loved to act like the master the most. Let’s tell her about this first.
Li Wen hurried in and asked the nanny inside to pass on the message.
After a while, he was told to come in. When he saw Aunt Rong, she was leisurely drinking tea.
"Tell me, what happened? The master is not at home, so you are causing trouble, right?" Aunt Rong's words were soft but with a hint of thorns, "Be careful, or the master will come back and expose your skin."
Li Wen shuddered inwardly. This woman was not someone to be trifled with. His wife had been ill a few days ago, and she had been in charge of the household for a while. It was said that she was very strict.
"Just now someone was cursing our master at the door, and I couldn't stop him, so Da Huang ran out and bit him. Second Madam, what do you think?"
This concubine Rong likes people to call her the Second Madam.
Sure enough, she was very happy, but she just said with a serious face, "Did you bite someone? Just pay some money."
"The one who bit the Second Prince"
"Puff!" Aunt Rong spat out a mouthful of tea. "Who?"
"Second, second prince."
