Chapter 288 Why doesn’t this gentleman play by the rules?
Seeing that Ulanara and Li were about to leave, their eyes suddenly lit up.
Almost in the blink of an eye it was back.
"Good luck to you, Lord Beile." Ulanara's reserved demeanor disappeared, and her voice took on a touch of feminine tenderness. A gentle and calm smile graced her face.
Li's face had just been vicious and ferocious, but now it was flushed red, and her eyes seemed to be on the Fourth Master's body.
Song leaned weakly on the maid next to her, looking like a fragile willow. The wound on her arm was exposed, perhaps intentionally.
Warming the wine: "..."
[Master, hurry up, everyone else has already made their move, you have to show some skills too!]
Wenjiu: "..." What ability does she have?
Should I cook a dish for everyone on the spot? Or should I ask her to do a longevity cramp dance?
【……】
[Master, why don't you just smile? You're more beautiful than them all!]
Normally, it wouldn't be a big deal to make her smile, but now she was a little upset. The food she had worked so hard to prepare was trampled by those women, which was really a bit disheartening.
When the Fourth Master saw so many people, he subconsciously frowned.
Seeing Wen Jiu picking up something again, he walked over without thinking and pulled her: "What? Don't pick it up..."
The Fourth Master's expression suddenly froze as he finished speaking: "This is..."
"Who? Who did it?" The Fourth Master's face turned dark in an instant.
This was the food he had painstakingly saved for a long time. In the past, his food was always snatched away by his third brother, the ninth brother, or the tenth brother. Later, when his third brother finally returned to Beijing, his thirteenth brother and the eldest brother also came.
With so many people around, he couldn't eat well.
He didn't want to trouble the little girl to hang around the stove all day, so he saved the leftovers and took them out whenever he wanted to eat.
After finally saving up a full box, the Fourth Master was very satisfied. He planned to keep it in his bedroom so that he could take it out and eat it whenever he wanted.
Who would have thought that it would be scattered all over the ground!
The fourth master picked up the oil-paper packages distressedly and patted the dirt off them. There was a footprint on them that could not be wiped off.
He immediately flew into a rage: "Who did this?! Hurry up and stand up for me now!"
Although he was angry, he couldn't bear to throw away the oil paper bag. Instead, he squatted down and picked it up with Wenjiu.
Wen Jiu saw the Fourth Master picking up the things and felt relieved. He immediately complained, "Master, it was the concubine. I told her that these were your things. But she refused to believe me and insisted on opening them. And then there was Song Gege. She turned your box upside down and turned it inside out."
As soon as these words came out, the Fourth Master's cold gaze immediately turned away.
Song was startled and immediately knelt down: "My Lord, ...I...I don't know."
Li's face turned pale as well. She immediately knelt down and bowed, "My Lord, please listen to my explanation. I was just looking for the murder weapon..."
The Fourth Master narrowed his eyes and said, "I was just saying, why can't I sleep peacefully? What are you guys doing here so early in the morning?"
The Fourth Master actually heard some noise early on, and thinking it was just the little girl doing something, he just let her do what she wanted.
Unexpectedly, a group of people were bullying her little girl in the yard...
What else could this be but bullying?
Look at what others are wearing on their heads and bodies, they are all wearing gorgeous tights and their makeup is also very delicate.
There were many servants following behind him, showing off their power.
The little girl was dressed in black without even a pattern. She was squatting on the ground with an empty space behind her, picking up food with a wronged look on her face... She looked so wronged no matter how you looked at her.
"My Lord, I am not here to disturb you from resting. It is just that Wenjiu was too lawless and actually whipped and injured Princess Song. I thought that there would be no order without rules, so I came here to persuade him..." Li noticed that the Fourth Master's expression was not right and explained immediately.
The Fourth Master subconsciously looked towards Song Shi after hearing this: "How did you offend her?"
The little girl cracked the whip?
The little girl usually has a good heart. Everyone around her, even her very annoying elder brother, has praised her.
Why would she whip someone for no reason?
Wen Jiuben had already prepared herself to be interrogated by the Fourth Master, but when she heard the Fourth Master ask this, she blinked her eyes and suddenly felt that something was wrong.
Why doesn't the Fourth Master play by the rules?
"I...she...My Lord Prince..." Song's tears suddenly fell. This time she was really heartbroken.
It was clearly she who was whipped, so why did the prince still side with Wenjiu?
He stiffened his neck and said, "My Lord, I didn't offend Wenjiu. Instead, it was Wenjiu who came to me and tried to snatch my people away, and even injured me."
As she said this, she lifted up her sleeves to let the Fourth Master see the scars.
The Fourth Master frowned and glanced at him, then turned back to look at Wen Jiu. Seeing Wen Jiu lowering his head and not saying anything, the Fourth Master frowned tightly. Suddenly, he said, "Those should be whip marks. Have you found the murder weapon?"
Song was stunned: "... never."
The Fourth Master then said, "We didn't find anything, so why do you say she beat us? Where's the evidence?"
Warming wine: “???”
[Xiao Jin: Why do these words sound so familiar...]
Song was stunned: "My Lord, she did hit me, and I still have wounds..."
Ulanara secretly glanced at Song, silently cursing her as a fool, then immediately bowed with a smile, "My Lord, my two sisters were just joking and got hurt accidentally. It wasn't a big deal, but I didn't expect Sister Li to get angry and bring Sister Song over this morning."
However, I have already punished them, and I think my sisters know they are wrong, so Lord Beile should not be angry.
After hearing this, the Fourth Master frowned even more.
He probably figured it out, that is, Jiuer and Song had a fight, and Song was injured.
Li stood up for Song and came to cause trouble for Jiuer.
Fu Jin spoke for them again...
These three people are of one mind!
What? Are you bullying his little girl because she has no one to rely on?
The Fourth Master frowned deeply, and suddenly looked at Wen Jiu and asked, "Have you been wronged?"
Wenjiu suddenly heard the Fourth Master ask this and nodded subconsciously, then shook his head.
It shouldn't be considered as being wronged, right?
Song was beaten back by herself.
Li came to him and made a fuss, but it was more trouble than it gained. He was so angry that his face turned blue.
She...shouldn't be considered wronged? If she was wronged, it was the people around her who were wronged.
"Lord Beile, how can you listen to this bitch's one-sided words?"
Li Shi saw that the Fourth Master’s eyes had hardly left Wen Jiu, and her gums were almost broken by biting: “What is she wronged about?
She is just a lowly concubine. First she beat Song Gege, then she beat Dong Chan in front of me. She even relied on your jade pendant to do whatever she wanted! We are the ones who are wronged..."
The Fourth Master's brows knitted tightly together, and after a long pause he finally said, "A humble concubine?"
