"My lord, look at them! They have no respect for the law even under the emperor's nose! They beat us up!"
"Yes, sir, they came up and started hitting us. Look at my face."
Although the men were embarrassed to admit they had been beaten, they figured they couldn't win anyway, so it would be foolish not to put on a good show and make the Bai family suffer.
Lord Luo, seated in his high position, looked at the men kneeling on the ground, wailing in pain. He recognized these men.
The Kang family's troublemaker.
His gaze shifted slightly, landing on Jiang Dai and the others. He didn't recognize these people; they were probably ordinary folks.
I just don't know if today's incident was the Kang family's idea or something these guys caused themselves.
Just as Lord Luo was thinking this, a person arrived silently; it was the manager of Kang Family Wenlanzhai.
Almost instantly, Lord Luo understood that this was the Kang family's intention.
But he couldn't sentence him, since he had only caused a bruise on the face and hadn't killed him.
"Silence!" Lord Luo turned to the Bai family: "You tell me what's going on here!"
This group of people remained quiet and calm after entering, unlike the Kang family group next to them who kept talking.
Unlike ordinary people, this reaction left him somewhat unsure of what to do.
After all, the capital city is full of hidden talents; could this group of people be relatives who have married out of the family?
Jiang Dai blinked, thinking she wouldn't have a chance to speak.
Bai Tian didn't make things up; he recounted in detail how the group of people rushed in and robbed them.
"You're talking nonsense! Did you write the Legend of the Stone Monkey? You stole it! You stole ours!"
"You not only stole from Wenlanzhai, but you also assaulted people. This is simply outrageous!"
This wasn't just random biting; in Kang's mind, the Stone Monkey Chronicles belonged to Wenlanzhai and had a legitimate lineage.
Now it has been stolen by some shady people who want to use it to make money, so they are the ones on the side of justice!
Jiang Dai laughed: "So, I wrote The Legend of the Stone Monkey!"
"Speaking nonsense! Shameless! You still think I wrote it, even if you claim it is!"
The manager of Wenlanzhai, standing in the crowd, turned his gaze to Jiang Dai, seemingly lost in thought.
He still knew how the Legend of the Stone Monkey came about in the capital.
Could it be that the woman before me is truly the author of The Legend of the Stone Monkey?
The manager of Wenlanzhai frowned and was about to go out when he heard a slight commotion outside.
The crowd dispersed one by one, and even without seeing who the newcomer was, one could tell that they were either rich or noble.
Moreover, even in a place like the government offices in the capital, the wealthy couldn't do that.
"Princess Chaoyang has arrived!"
Upon hearing the name, Juanjuan's eyes lit up.
This was the princess she had heard about in Niantao Village; the princess who had the little white rabbit that her third brother had caught.
Juanjuan has a good memory.
The styles of Bai Tian and Jiang Dai are somewhat different.
Bai Tian: [Princess Chaoyang? Why does that name sound so familiar?]
Jiang Dai: [Princess? Is she the one Liang Tian'er mentioned in the village?]
Juanjuan nodded quietly, shaking her head. Although outsiders didn't know what was wrong with the child, her young age and cute appearance wouldn't lead anyone to associate her with madness.
Anyway, watching his younger sister standing to the side shaking her head, Bai Yun'an just felt...
This little gadget is really interesting, weird, and weirdly cute.
Juanjuan looked up at her third brother and gave him a shy smile.
Then he quickly turned to look at that Princess Chaoyang.
