Chapter 94 I'm not scared, my legs are shaking
The guard from the Ministry of Justice began to hesitate whether he should speak up to help the young lady so that she would not be so embarrassed. Just when he was about to speak after hesitating for a long time, he heard a crisp voice.
There was no sign of crying on Qiao Wanyan's face, but her palms were burning, and she turned all the unhappiness in her heart into strength.
Cry? What's the point of crying?
Only by making the other person cry can she feel relieved.
She would never be the kind of person who would lose an argument and stay awake late at night, hating herself for not performing well!
If you can’t win the argument, won’t you just use violence?
It would be fine if the other party was a prince, but it was just an earl's mansion that had no real power and was gradually declining. Just fight, and Daddy will clean up the mess for me.
The pupils of the guards from the Ministry of Justice shrank to the extreme in an instant, and they looked at the scene in disbelief.
Just like that, you do it?
No foreplay at all, just start fighting right away?
"You dare to hit me?" Situ Yue's eyes were bloodshot.
Qiao Wanyan sneered contemptuously, "Who do you think you are? You are the sixth son of the Earl's family, but the one who inherited the title is the eldest son of a concubine. This shows how useless you are. You have the favor of the Earl of Pingyang and the status of a legitimate son, but you can't get the title."
Situ Yue's face turned pale, his eyes were filled with extreme anger, his fists were clenched tightly, and he stared at the woman in front of him who was mocking him.
Qiao Wanyan was not afraid of his anger at all. "You are a useless person who lived under the wings of my father and survived under the command of my half brother in the future. You dare to be arrogant and make trouble in front of me. Last time at the palace banquet, I told you to keep your tail between your legs and avoid me in the future. But you are blind and came to my door begging me to scold you."
Situ Yue has always been a jerk in the capital. The noble ladies in the capital would avoid him when they saw him, for fear that he would get angry and make trouble.
Pingyang Earl's status in the court is not as high as before, and he does not have any real power. Although his eldest son is the most outstanding one among the children in the family, he is still not good enough compared to those outstanding people.
The Earl of Pingyang's Mansion can still gain a foothold in the capital today, but it is only because the Earl of Pingyang's daughter entered the palace a few years ago and was quite favored that it has been able to maintain this temporary status.
Otherwise, how could Situ Yue dare to be so arrogant?
At the summer banquet in the palace last year, Situ Yue threatened to marry her while drunk and even dared to make a move on her.
Pingyang Bo didn't say a word after being beaten openly by his father's men. Now he dared to make trouble in front of her, so she could only blame herself for not being a soft persimmon.
"You will be punished for being so arrogant." Situ Yue gritted his teeth and stared at her fiercely.
Qiao Wanyan said: "If I were a soft persimmon, the words you said should be mine."
The guard of the Ministry of Justice nodded secretly in his heart. The Sixth Young Master was just looking for trouble but was angry because he had never done anything to her. If this young lady was really a soft persimmon, he would be even more arrogant at this moment.
Situ Yue stared at her back, as if he wanted to stare through her.
After a long while, when the figure disappeared around the corner, he clenched his teeth.
"Just wait!"
His sister even told him to find a way to marry this bitch and form an alliance with the Qiao family to preserve the glory and status of the Situ family. But he would never marry such a domineering person even if he wanted to marry a commoner girl!
He would never let it go like this. As a woman, he had thousands of ways to make it impossible for her to survive in the capital!
Last time, he was beaten up by people sent by Minister Qiao in front of Situ Xi, which was a disgrace to him.
Regardless of new grudges and old grudges, he must let that bitch Qiao Wanyan know that he is not someone to be bullied!
The further they walked inside, the more damp the feeling became. Qiao Wanyan asked, "What is Situ Yue doing in the Ministry of Justice?"
The guard of the Ministry of Justice immediately replied, "The Sixth Young Master forcibly abducted a girl as his concubine. The girl's brother went to the Earl's mansion to ask for her, but was beaten half to death by the Sixth Young Master's men. The girl's brother went to the government to complain, but the government ignored him, so he continued to knock on the door of the Earl's mansion in Pingyang to ask for her."
The guard of the Ministry of Justice paused after he finished speaking, "I heard that there is a warden in the Ministry of Justice who is a good friend of the Sixth Young Master. The warden arrested the man and took him to the prison of the Ministry of Justice. The Sixth Young Master came here today to find that warden."
Qiao Wanyan looked indifferent, that was really bad luck.
The guard of the Ministry of Justice added, "That girl is really pitiful. I heard that her father died of hard labor in his early years, and her mother is seriously ill and can't get up from the bed. Her brother works diligently on the farm, and her sister works in the kitchen of a restaurant. The family that was originally doing well has now become unlucky."
Qiao Wanyan didn't say anything and didn't intend to interfere.
"But the girl's cooking skills are really good. My husband ate the sweet-scented osmanthus cake she made once and praised it highly. But my monthly allowance is not much, so I can't buy it for her every day. She won't be able to eat it in the future."
Qiao Wanyan frowned, "Osmanthus cake? Where does she make osmanthus cake?"
The guard from the Ministry of Justice said, "Mingyue Tower. The owner of Mingyue Tower is a good man. He originally didn't hire women to work, but he felt sorry for the girl and kept her. Who would have thought that something like this would happen."
Qiao Wanyan coughed lightly, "Situ Yue forcibly abducted a commoner girl, and yet there were corrupt officials who arrested people for no reason. This is simply too much! What's the name of that girl's brother?"
"Sun Gui."
When Qiao Wanyan saw Yun Yao, her two normally tall buns had drooped down.
He was squatting in the corner, hugging his legs in pain. When he heard some movement at the cell door, he looked up. When he saw it was a familiar person, he immediately ran to the door, crying and sobbing.
"Sister Yan, I'm going to die!"
"I really don't know what kind of remnant of the previous dynasty that guy is. He asked me to help him block the bad guys chasing him, and then he told me where the most fun place in the capital is, so I helped him..."
"Sister Ayan, please tell my brother for me that I want to be his sister in my next life. woooooo..."
Qiao Wanyan: “.........”
Where did this shameless thief come from to deceive children?
Don’t you know that the child has never seen the world?
Qiao Wanyan comforted Yun Yao and waited until Yun Yao calmed down before leaving the prison.
Zi Yuan asked, "Miss, do you think King Jing will release Miss Yun?"
Qiao Wanyan glanced at her lower body and said, "I don't know, but Ziyuan, what are you afraid of? It's not like we've entered the Ministry of Justice and can't get out."
Zi Yuan shook her head. "I am not afraid. My legs are just shaking a little."
Qiao Wanyan pursed her lips. Although her legs were weak, her mouth was firm.
"If you're scared, just wait for me outside the Ministry of Justice."
Zi Yuan shook her head again, "I don't want it. I want to stay here with the young lady."
Although she was afraid in her heart, no matter how scared she was, the young lady was more important, so she had to stay here to accompany the young lady.
The worst that can happen is death, and it is worth dying for the young lady.
