Chapter 505: Don’t Spout Filth When You’re Out
The maid seemed to have suffered a huge blow. She stopped arguing and let the bailiff drag her out.
Seeing her cooperation, Qiu Yuanzheng felt it was abnormal.
He called his confidant and was about to give him some instructions when he heard the maid's hoarse roar outside the door.
"As a prince, can you do such a thing as forcibly taking my wife?"
The gate of the Dali Temple was not closed, and the people who were stopped outside the gate to join in the fun happened to hear this sentence clearly.
The bailiff didn't expect that she would dare to bite him even when she was about to die, and he was so frightened that he forgot to cover her mouth.
The maid turned her head to look at the gate and said hatefully, "The emperor has power, and as a member of the royal family, you can do whatever you want. And the lives of us lowly people are worthless, right?"
She hardened her heart, broke free from the two yamen runners, and slammed her head against the pillar in the courtyard.
With a dull "bang", her body collapsed to the ground, and her entire face was quickly covered with blood gushing from her forehead.
The bailiff hurried forward to check her breath, then shook his head grimly.
The person has already died.
There was silence outside the door for a moment, and then there was noise.
The people were shouting, demanding that Mo Jinchuan come out and give them an explanation. How could a girl just bump into a pillar for no reason?
Someone said, "Even if this girl is guilty, she should be tried properly. Is it necessary to force her to death?"
"Power is a good thing, but the lives of ordinary people like us are worthless. When we die, we die."
"I've heard that His Royal Highness Prince Jin is ruthless and kills people without blinking an eye on the battlefield. I didn't expect him to do the same to our own people."
"Okay, all of you, please stop talking. The prince is not that kind of person."
Different sounds were heard, and they were instantly attacked by several people.
Some even called him a "running dog of the powerful."
The people who were scolded were dissatisfied and questioned that if King Jin had not been stationed in the border town for many years, how could the people be able to live a good life like they are now, with enough food to eat and warm clothes to wear.
Apart from anything else, just because of this great victory, the people of Da'an will be able to live a peaceful life for several years.
The matter hasn't been clarified yet, but they are already trying to pin the crime of bullying on Prince Jin, but he doesn't want that!
"How much silver did Prince Jin give you to speak for him like this?" someone asked.
After he finished speaking, the people around him all looked at him.
That person thought that everyone agreed with him, and he and the others talked even more excitedly.
Everyone couldn't stand it anymore when they heard him say, "People outside are saying that King Jin is a weird person. If he was really that powerful, he would have broken his leg."
Everyone exchanged glances and took action at the same time.
Some pulled the collars, some punched and kicked, and some women took the opportunity to pull the hair and pinch the eyes, beating the troublemakers until they cried for their parents.
A woman holding her child, squeezed to the outside and unable to get close, stamped her feet in frustration, crying and cursing, "You conscienceless beasts deserve to be cut into pieces.
If it weren't for His Royal Highness Prince Jin, you would have been reincarnated eight hundred times and become animals."
The child she was holding also started to curse, his tongue hanging open in frustration.
Several people ran away with their heads in their hands, their cries for mercy getting louder and louder, even their grandparents started calling out for mercy.
Everyone kept moving their hands and spat, "You son of a bitch, if your father and mother don't teach you how to be a man, your grandparents will!"
After that, everyone attacked even more fiercely.
Fists rained down on them, and those people couldn't even shout, they could only groan softly.
If the guards of the Dali Temple had not stepped in to stop the fight for fear of loss of life, these people would have been beaten to a pulp.
The people dispersed unwillingly, still cursing.
"These ungrateful people should have been sent to fight on the battlefield for the prince. Let's see if they dare to make sarcastic remarks here."
"Are they such spineless people? If they were really guarding the border town, they would probably kneel down and surrender before anyone even reaches their door."
"These people don't sound like they have a Beijing accent."
"Your Highness just lets them eat too much so that they have the energy to bite and scream here."
Several people had already fainted, and no matter how the people around them cursed and insulted them, they didn't dare to make a sound.
It's also possible that he is pretending.
Zhu Zhi stood in front of Song Yanxi, fearing that the excited people would accidentally hurt her.
The master and servant squeezed forward, but heard a female voice say, "That Princess Yong'an is no good. She's already married to General Lin, yet she's still trying to seduce the prince. How shameless!
General Lin was right to divorce her!
The two looked in the direction of the voice and saw that the person speaking was a young girl of about 28 years old with pretty eyebrows and eyes.
Zhuzhi was immediately unhappy and rolled up her sleeves to squeeze over to argue with the girl, but she heard someone say even faster: "Little girl, how can you talk like that!
Didn't your parents teach you at home not to talk nonsense when you're out in public?
The little girl blushed and retorted, "You are an uneducated person. I didn't say anything to you. Why are you meddling in other people's business?"
The lady at the side said, "Who told you to talk too much about the princess? This elder sister deserves to scold you."
"Auntie Wang, how can you help outsiders to speak ill of me?"
Aunt Wang snorted coldly, rolled her eyes and said, "Not only will I tell you, I'll also tell your parents when I get home.
Let them see that I have raised a daughter who is so ambitious that she even slanders Princess Yong'an in order to climb up the social ladder."
The little girl shrieked, "How did I slander her? What I said was all true!"
Her gaze locked onto Song Yanxi's face in the crowd, and she said bitterly, "You vixen! You've ruined the reputation of His Highness Prince Jin!"
In an instant, the people's eyes were focused on her.
Song Yanxi did not dodge or evade, but met those inquiring gazes.
Just as she was about to explain that she was not a vixen, someone suddenly shouted, "It's the princess, it's really the Princess Yong'an!"
The people who had been quiet suddenly became excited.
The little kid who was closest to her even reached out and hugged Song Yanxi, saying in a baby voice, "The princess is a fairy!"
"What they said is true. The county lady is beautiful and kind-hearted. She is indeed a fairy who has descended to earth."
"If it weren't for the princess, my aunt's family might have died. It was the princess who saved their lives, and everyone else's lives."
"Everyone, let's kowtow to Princess Yong'an on behalf of our friends and relatives who have saved their lives!"
The people all knelt down and kowtowed three times to Song Yanxi respectfully.
Every muffled sound seemed to hit the heart.
Song Yanxi only had time to help the nearest sixty-year-old man to his feet. Looking at the people kneeling on the ground, she hurriedly said, "Everyone, please stand up quickly. You are really embarrassing me."
The sixty-year-old man said with tears in his eyes: "The princess saved the entire border town. If the border town was lost, those beasts from Liang State would have attacked us in less than three months.
You saved all of our lives, so you deserve this kneeling."
As soon as the voice fell, the little girl was heard to say unconvincedly: "The person who turned the tide in the border town and saved the people in the city was obviously Princess Shihan.
You idiots, you're kneeling to the wrong person!"
