"Get out of here. This is not a place for you lowly people to enter."
Gao Zhijun and others got off the carriage and came to the gate of the manor. Just as they were about to go in, they were scolded by the guards guarding the gate.
"How dare you! Do you know who is in front of you?"
Qinglong stood in front of Gao Zhijun, protecting her behind him and scolding the guards.
"Who cares who she is? This is the manor of the nobles in the palace. You lowly people are not allowed to enter. I advise you to leave quickly, otherwise don't blame us for being ruthless and punishing you."
The guard didn't take Gao Zhijun seriously at all. Even though the girl in front of him was from an official family, he was not afraid. His master was the second princess in the palace, with a very high status.
"She was personally conferred the title by the Emperor..."
Qinglong wanted to reveal Gao Zhijun's identity, but Gao Zhijun stopped him, and the princess did not reveal it in the end.
As soon as Gao Zhijun saw the guard in front of her, she knew that he was a dog slave who flattered the powerful and looked down on the weak, and it was not worth it for him to reveal her identity.
"The noble lady in the palace you are talking about is the Second Princess, right?"
Gao Zhijun asked the guard.
"Are you scared? Yes, it's the Second Princess. I advise you to leave quickly, otherwise we will beat you to death, and no official will dare to intervene."
The guard said arrogantly.
His master was the high-ranking Second Princess, a member of the royal family. When the Second Prince ascended to that throne, his master would become the Empress, the mother of a nation. By then, the status of these servants would rise, and some officials would curry favor with them.
"It seems that you are out of touch with the news. You don't even know that your master has been divorced by the Second Prince. And you are still daydreaming here. How ridiculous!"
Canglang looked at the guard with contempt and coldly told him about the new incident that had caused a stir in the capital that morning.
"You're talking nonsense! How dare you slander my master and say she was divorced? You're dead!"
"Come here, catch them and beat them to death."
The guard laughed heartily upon hearing this. They were a bunch of inexperienced, short-sighted people. The Second Prince's Consort couldn't be divorced so easily. Without a major offense and the Emperor's approval, the Second Prince couldn't divorce her even if he wanted to.
As soon as the guard said this, many guards ran out of the manor and surrounded Gao Zhijun and others.
"Canglang, Qinglong, beat them hard!"
Gao Zhijun couldn't stand it any longer and ordered Canglang and Qinglong to beat them up.
Aren't they very arrogant? Just beat them until they can no longer be arrogant.
"Yes, Princess!"
Canglang and Qinglong said in unison.
In front of outsiders, Qinglong would still call Gao Zhijun Princess.
The guard seemed to have heard the word "Princess" and was about to ask for clarification when Qinglong had already come up to him and attacked him without giving him time to ask. He had no choice but to deal with Qinglong seriously and found that his martial arts skills were very high, even better than his.
Canglang fought one against five and began to deal with the guards.
When the maids and servants in the farm saw the guards running to the gate, they thought that something big might have happened at the gate, so they hurried to find the manager.
The steward was a middle-aged man of about forty years old, wearing a gorgeous long robe, which showed that he had a high status in the Second Prince's Mansion.
The steward's surname is Qi. He was brought here by the Second Princess from her natal family and was assigned to manage all the affairs of the manor.
When he heard that all the guards in the manor were running to the gate, he felt uneasy, thinking that something might have happened, and ran out in a hurry.
When Manager Qi arrived at the gate, Qinglong and Canglang had already knocked down the guards. They were lying on the ground, groaning in pain, with viciousness and fear in their eyes.
"How dare you! Do you know whose farm this is? You dare to act so arrogantly here, are you looking for death?"
The steward looked at the guard lying on the ground with bruises all over his body, and he became furious and scolded him loudly.
"You are the manager here, right? This is my princess. They insulted my princess and even wanted to kill her, so we beat them up."
"The steward is favored by the Second Princess, and as a steward here, he should know that insulting the princess and even wanting to kill her is a serious crime, right? It's not too much to draw them into pieces."
As soon as Hongyue saw the other person's clothes, she knew that he must be the manager here.
She first revealed Gao Zhijun's identity to suppress him so that he could not act so presumptuously.
"Princess? Which princess is she?"
When the steward heard that it was the princess, his heart skipped a beat. This matter was going to be difficult.
If the other person is really a princess, she is also a member of the royal family. If the princess is still deeply favored by the emperor, then his master really can't do anything to her.
If the princess wants to pursue them, the master will not help them.
"Princess Xiangyun, personally appointed by the Emperor!"
Hongyue said.
Princess Xiangyun? Daliang's benefactor, and also his benefactor. If there was no prescription to cure the plague, his wife and mother would probably have died.
"I greet the princess! It was my fault for not disciplining them properly, which led to their offending the princess. Please punish them, princess!"
The steward immediately knelt down and apologized to Gao Zhijun.
"Your master lost the manor to me, and this is my manor. I entered my own manor, and they not only blocked my way, but also spoke rudely and threatened to kill me. I cannot tolerate this humiliation and will definitely hand them over to the authorities for investigation."
Gao Zhijun took out the house deed from her sleeve and told her that the Second Princess had lost this place to her.
"This slave deserves death. He was blind and didn't know you were the princess. He deserves death a thousand times! Please, princess, spare us."
The guards on the ground endured the pain, climbed up, knelt down and apologized to Gao Zhijun, hoping that she would let them go.
"Wishful thinking! Canglang, send these people to Jingzhao Prefecture and let the Jingzhao prefect to conduct a thorough investigation to see if any lives have been taken. If so, sentence them severely."
Gao Zhijun instructed Canglang.
Gao Zhijun never shows mercy to evil people and never acts like a saint and lets them go.
"Yes, Princess!"
After Canglang finished speaking, he and Qinglong Huo Jinqian put the guards on the ground into the carriage and took them to Jingzhao Prefecture.
