Since you were left behind by that general, you should know what's good for you! You are not allowed to enter the women's quarters in the inner courtyard.
From this day forward, you shall stay ten feet away from my beloved Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao…
Just as Aunt Qiao finished speaking, the Qiao family's gate was surrounded by a thud and trembling sound.
The advisor named Chen Tian had recently been severely whipped by Prefect Liu Xun because he had injured Qiao Jingjing's face with a whip at the city gate years ago.
Prefect Liu consulted a fortune teller to have his fortune told.
The fortune teller said that the wife of Prefect Liu should absolutely not be a woman with a disfigured face.
Even if you took this disfigured woman into your home as a concubine, it wouldn't be good.
It also disrupts the feng shui of the home!
Still clinging to hope, Prefect Liu hesitantly asked the physiognomist, "It's not a disfigurement, just a very shallow scar, almost invisible."
No! That won't do.
The requirements for face reading masters are very high.
"Impossible! If you want your career to continue and your family to remain peaceful, then you should stop trying to take advantage of this woman."
There was a brief interlude where Prefect Liu didn't bother Qiao Jingjing for a long time.
They never disturbed Mrs. Qiao's domestic life of supporting her husband and raising her daughters.
Even today, Prefect Liu's advisor, the very advisor he had just severely whipped, remains utterly loyal to him.
The advisor told Liu Xun, "This news was spread by a maid from the Qiao family, it can't be false! There are several masked men in black, and the Qiao family members all call them Sun something..."
Upon hearing this information, Liu Xun immediately became nervous.
He immediately ordered his advisor, Chen Tian, to lead three hundred men to besiege the Qiao family.
"Take your men and go! If you find anyone suspicious, be thorough and bring them back to me. I want to question them myself."
So Chen Tian brought his men with him.
Chen Tian, whose face was also bruised and battered by Liu Xun, still walked into the Qiao family's house with an arrogant air.
At this time, the Qiao family was in turmoil, with many women and men falling ill.
They were all defeated by Lü Meng.
As Chen Tian walked in, he immediately noticed the suspicious Lü Meng.
"This young man is very strong! Judging from his appearance, he's not a farmer, nor is he an ordinary servant. Come on, grab this kid!"
Lu Meng immediately set up his battle formation, ready to launch a major attack.
Qiao Jingjing rushed forward to stop her.
She didn't care whether her mother was nearby or not.
Although her mother had given her many earnest and unforgettable teachings.
Her mother hoped she would not show her face in public.
"Stop! Who dares to do that?"
This is the Qiao family home! What evidence do you have that you've come here to cause trouble?
When Qiao Jingjing asked him that question, even the advisor laughed.
"Da Qiao, what other evidence do you need? This person is standing in your house in broad daylight. Where did he come from? Where did he go? What is he doing here..."
Without a second thought, Qiao Jingjing fabricated a backstory for Lü Meng.
"You mean this lad? His name is Ameng, a servant my father recently bought. Ameng's family was poor when he was young, and he doesn't know many words, but he's strong and hardworking. However, he doesn't speak very fluently, which caused him to have conflicts with our family members, which is why you're in this situation, making a fool of yourself, Master."
Qiao Jingjing spoke in a serious and methodical manner, making it sound very convincing.
Chen Tian squinted in disbelief.
He invoked Liu Xun's name: "The governor said that anyone found acting suspiciously should be arrested and interrogated to find out whether they are telling the truth or not."
