Chapter 287 "Aunt, I'll leave this to you. I'll go to the restaurant first.
After he finished speaking, the people around him also became angry and followed the officers, shouting at them to release the women.
Ruan Mian and her aunt, who were standing in the crowd, watched Xu Moer and the others being arrested.
They felt a little reluctant, but this was also part of their plan.
Only when things get bigger, can the anger of the people in the city be aroused.
Sometimes it is not very useful to just talk. Only when their own interests are involved will some people stand on the united front.
I just have to put Xu Moer and the others in trouble for the time being.
Ruan Mian looked up at the sun, and seeing that it was almost time, he turned and said to his aunt.
"Aunt, I'll leave this place to you. I'll go to the restaurant first." Aunt nodded, grabbed her arm and warned her, "You must also be careful. If Wen Yuan is too troublesome, you can kill him with a knife."
Ruan Mian smiled and decisively went against the crowd.
After changing his clothes in Manager Yi's shop, he followed Manager Yi and his companions to the side door of the restaurant's backyard.
There were several other women with her.
They were wearing different clothes and were all actors specially found for Wen Yuan today.
Wen Yuan usually likes to listen to music and play chess. Shopkeeper Yi said that often when merchants hold banquets, they must give big gifts and beautiful women.
Regardless of whether these women were from the lower class, prostitutes, or foreign slaves, their status was irrelevant and they only cared about their appearance.
Anyone with a good appearance would be taken into Wenyuan's mansion, regardless of whether they were willing or not.
Before entering the restaurant, Manager Yi was a little worried about Ruan Mian: "Madam Ruan, it might be too dangerous for you to put yourself in danger. Why don't we find some more people just in case?"
Ruan Mian understood that Shopkeeper Yi was concerned about her, and after accepting his kindness, she said calmly, "It's okay, I know what to do."
Seeing her determined look, Manager Yi chose to believe her and cooperated with Ruan Mian to greet Wen Yuan in a flattering manner.
Wen Yuan came limping over, exhausted. After entering the room, he immediately set his eyes on these beauties.
He stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the women with a smile, as if he was looking at prey, as if he wanted to tear them apart and eat them.
However, before they had finished drinking the wine for long, the official who had been sent out came back to report the incident at the porridge stall, and the servant who delivered the message told him in a trembling voice.
"Master, those women have been arrested, but...but the people in the city are crying out for justice for them. Quite a few people are already standing outside the government office, clamoring for their release. And they're still...still speaking rudely to you, Master."
Wen Yuan's face changed slightly, and he threw the cup in his hand at the boy's face!
"waste!"
"A bunch of losers! They arrested a few women and got everyone in the city into trouble. They're eating for free!! They can't even handle such a small matter!"
The servant immediately kowtowed in frustration, "Master, please spare me. This...this matter has been specifically explained to the officials according to your wishes. Please make sure this matter is handled properly, otherwise..."
Before he could finish his words, Wen Yuan kicked him far away!
"You must have failed to explain clearly! You're an idiot! You've been with me for so many years, and yet you still don't understand these things. I think you deserve to be punished! Someone, bring up the nectar! Let him taste it and learn his lesson!"
When the servant heard this, he started shaking instantly. However, before he could beg for mercy, someone came over with several large cups of yellow liquid and forced them into the servant's mouth in full view of everyone.
The servant wanted to vomit, but his neck was strangled and he couldn't move.
The man didn't let go of the servant until he saw that he had swallowed it all.
The servant's face flushed as he covered his chest and retched, his whole body limp as he collapsed to the ground, coughing non-stop.
Others looked at him with some disgust. When Ruan Mian was confused, he happened to hear the women next to him talking quietly.
"They say it's horse urine mixed with poison. It's incredibly hard to drink, and after drinking it you'll feel excruciating pain all over your body."
"This isn't the first time Master Wen has punished someone like this. We should be on our guard."
Seeing this, Ruan Mian's eyebrows twitched slightly. Only then did he realize that Wen Yuan actually liked to use these methods to torture others. He really was... an official with a lot of airs.
Seeing this, she glanced at the horse urine placed not far from her, and while no one was paying attention, she touched the jade bracelet...
At the same time, Wen Yuan angrily called for someone to come over: "I will arrest all those who are causing trouble to serve as a warning to others! Anyone who dares to make noises outside the mansion will suffer the consequences! Get out!"
After his anger subsided, Manager Yi received a look from Ruan Mian and stepped forward with a smile to ease the atmosphere.
"Master, don't be angry. It's not worth getting angry over these people. Come on, let these talented women entertain you first, and then we can take a look at the big treasure." After hearing what he said, Wen Yuan's expression eased a little.
At this time, Ruan Mian walked slowly to the front with a pipa in her arms. When she raised her eyes, her beautiful face immediately caught Wen Yuan's attention.
She stretched out her delicate hands with a seductive look and plucked the pipa a few times.
Like the rippling melody of green waves, it slowly spreads through the air, just like the soul-stirring voice of a woman, with an incomparably gentle tone, transforming into the tenderness of her fingertips.
She bent slightly, and her exquisite figure made people think of something very tempting. Not only Wen Yuan, but also other men at the scene looked at Ruan Mian at the same time.
She sat down gently, her frail and boneless appearance seemed to be able to captivate people's souls.
Wen Yuan was so moved by what he saw that his eyes lit up.
He looked over eagerly, only to see Ruan Mian plucking the strings. Although she looked weak, the music was as powerful and full of ambition as on the battlefield.
Just a short paragraph had already aroused their passion, and their emotions surged like a storm.
Before the performance was even over, Wen Yuan was completely immersed in it. He quickly clapped his hands together and personally took the wine glass and walked over to Ruan Mian. He was mesmerized by her charming eyes, his eyes full of her. "This is such a stunning beauty! This is the first time I've seen her. Especially her excellent piano skills. She is completely different from ordinary women!"
"It's so magnificent, it doesn't look like it was made by a woman at all. I'd have thought it was some great musician! Well done, Shopkeeper Yi, you've truly found a treasure!"
Ruan Mian smiled and took the glass of wine. Her little finger rubbed the back of his hand intentionally or unintentionally, which instantly made Wen Yuan's heart flutter.
He quickly invited her to sit next to him.
Ruan Mian turned around tenderly and went to pour wine for him. Next to it was the special "horse urine" she had prepared early in the morning. It was mixed with a little bit of wine and the medicines, which temporarily covered up the smell of horse urine.
After handing it over, Wen Yuan drank it all in one gulp without saying a word, without even thinking about it.
