Chapter 74 Just stand behind the princess!
"Hey? Isn't this the second branch of the Bu family? Why are you here at the gate of Prince Zhan's mansion?"
"Humph, most likely he's here to look for Princess Zhan. He's like a dog-skin plaster that can't be shaken off, and he's even been chased here."
"The second branch of the Bu family? Isn't that Princess Zhan's second uncle? How did he become like this?"
"You just arrived in Kyoto and didn't know? The second and third branches of the Bu family are nothing..."
Bu Ruo frowned slightly as she watched the weeping Second Wife. "Please call me Princess Zhan! The letter of severance has been written, and our branch has been removed from the Bu family tree. I have no relationship with you anymore. As for your son, he has even less to do with me."
"Besides, the emperor is subject to the same punishment as common people when he breaks the law. How can your son not pay with his life for beating someone to death? Did the other person's son die in vain? Did the girl jump into the well in vain? But I heard that it was your son who stole the other person's fiancée with improper intentions, which is why two lives have been lost. Even if he is arrested by the Ministry of Justice and sentenced to death, he deserves it!"
"I won't help you in your evil deeds. People like him are superfluous in this world. I haven't forgotten those insulting words he said to my parents at the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion. He should be grateful for his bloodline because I didn't take his life myself. Otherwise, he wouldn't be alive today!"
"Bi'er, let's go. If they continue to pester me, I'll beat them to death. They even dare to block my way. I've had enough of life."
The people were all happy to see Buruo's reaction, and no one thought that Buruo did anything wrong.
"He forcibly kidnapped someone's fiancée and beat her to death. He's completely devoid of conscience. He even had the nerve to come to the gate of Prince Zhan's mansion and ask Princess Zhan to save her. How shameless!"
"That's right, shameless! Princess Zhan is right, people like this should be sentenced to death immediately and pay for the lives of other people's sons and daughters!"
"Humph, this kind of beast shouldn't live in this world, otherwise I don't know how many more people will be bullied in the future."
Zou from the second house saw Bu Ruo leaving but did not dare to stop him. When she heard the people's discussions, she turned around and cursed in anger.
"You guys are just standing there talking nonsense, but it's not your son who was taken away. If your son is taken away one day, I want to see if you will be anxious."
"Besides, this is my Bu family's business. Although Ruo'er has severed her ties with us, our bloodline cannot be denied. Broken bones are still connected by tendons. She was just angry for a moment. I don't believe she would really leave someone to die without helping."
A lady who looked to be in her thirties was carrying a basket and was obviously going to buy vegetables. She couldn't help but spit when she heard what Zou said.
"Bah, shut up, what's wrong with our son? The son we raised won't go out and steal someone else's fiancée. Our son will pursue the girl he likes, and if he's rejected, he'll bless her."
"Just like you guys, you forced yourselves on someone, and when you couldn't, you even beat the man to death, and caused the girl to jump into a well. Also...looking at your behavior, it's no surprise you gave birth to a son like that."
Zou was about to argue, but was slapped to the ground by Buruo's uncle: "Shut up! Aren't you ashamed enough?"
"If you hadn't spoiled him with everything since he was a kid, he wouldn't have dared to do anything, and in the end, he even dared to kill people! It's true that loving mothers often spoil their children, loving mothers often spoil their children!"
Zou covered her face and looked at him in disbelief: "Bu Kaicheng, you hit me, you actually dared to hit me!"
"Although my family fell on hard times back then, it was still more than a bastard like you could ever hope to be. When you were pursuing me, you talked a lot of nonsense, saying that your eldest brother, the legitimate son of the Bu family, had been fighting on the battlefield for years, and if he died in battle in the future, the entire Bu family would be yours! But what about now? Look at you now?"
"When the emperor bestowed the title of Duke of Zhenguo, you had nothing to do with it. But now, all our family's savings have been spent on our son, and now we can't even afford to eat."
"Is this the good life you promised me? Is this what you said would happen when your son gradually gets promoted?"
Bu Kaicheng looked at Zou, who was already a little crazy and talking nonsense, and slapped her again: "Shut up! Don't you even look at where we are? What did you say?"
Zou had been unable to eat or sleep these days because of her son's affairs, and the two slaps from Bu Kaicheng caused her to completely collapse emotionally.
"Bu Kaicheng, you hit me again. You've hit me twice today! I...I'm going to fight you! My son can't be saved anyway, so what's there for me to be afraid of? If anything happens to my son, I won't live anymore, but I'll take you with me before I die! Let's go with our son together!"
Jin Congcong was lying on the crack of the door of Prince Zhan's mansion, watching with great interest: "Yes, yes, tickle him, tickle him hard!"
"Oh, you're so stupid! Why are you scratching your body? Scratch your face! Yes, yes, scratch your face! Look, there's blood!"
"Hey? Hey, hey, hey? She's gone crazy. Can you push her? Kick her... You're not much better than her. You kicked her so many times but still couldn't hit her."
"Kick it in the stomach. Look...it's going pretty far."
"Oh my god... why is she still bleeding? Is it really okay to bleed so much? No, no, this is... this is a miscarriage!!!"
Butler Qin was standing aside and giving the doorman some instructions. When he heard Jin Congcong's words, he immediately trotted over... and lay down in the crack of the door with him.
"Don't mention it, it's true."
Jin Congcong: ...
"Will it really be okay if she dies at the gate of our house? It won't have any impact on Ruo'er, right? Otherwise, should I go out and save her?"
Butler Qin glanced at him and said, "Although I have only been with the princess for a short time, I feel that if Divine Doctor Jin goes out to save the woman from the second house now, when the princess returns...it may be you, Divine Doctor Jin, who will need treatment."
"As for troubling Little Divine Doctor Jin, don't worry. With the prince here, it wouldn't matter if not just one woman, even if everyone from the second and third branches of the Bu family died at the gate of our Prince Zhan's mansion today. It's not a big deal."
Jin Congcong: ...
Sure enough, as soon as Butler Qin finished speaking, Cen Nan came over with several guards.
"Master Cen, what are you doing..."
Cen Nan weighed the sword in his hand and said, "The prince said it was too noisy outside and he was worried that the princess would come back and see it and it would affect her mood, so he asked me to go out and kill the man once and for all."
Butler Qin: No matter what happens in Prince Zhan’s Mansion in the future, just stand behind the princess!
Jin Congcong: You must hold on to Ruoer’s big, thick legs!
Bu Kaicheng, who was outside the mansion, panicked the moment he saw the blood. He hurriedly asked the people who were watching the excitement to help him find a doctor. However, after what had just happened, no one was willing to help him. They all covered their noses and retreated.
It was not until he saw Cen Nan and his men walking towards him with swords in hand and murderous looks on their faces that he gritted his teeth and picked up Zou, who was as fat as a pig, and left.
