Sure enough, just as she finished changing her clothes, Xiao Liangyuan arrived. She was stopped at the door and angrily said, "Yan Nangui, we are both Liangyuan, how dare you detain my people without my permission!"
Yan Nangui completely ignored her.
In Jiyue Pavilion, the master is domineering, and the servants are all equally domineering.
After all, even the old woman who guards the gate has seen her master give the Crown Prince the cold shoulder, and the Crown Prince is not afraid of her. So what are you, an unfavored foreigner?
So the old women at the gate wouldn't budge an inch. The gatekeepers were all strong and robust women, and even with the three of them fighting, it was difficult to push them aside.
Besides, Consort Xiao currently has no eunuchs.
Yan Nangui looked at Meng Lazhu, who was kneeling, and smiled.
"Looks like you guys bullied quite a few people when you were on the grasslands, didn't you?"
Menglazhu stared wide-eyed and made a whimpering sound, probably cursing.
Yan Nangui asked casually, "Which arm bumped into me? Which foot stepped on me?"
She naturally couldn't say it, so Shuanzi stepped forward and said, "This servant thinks the right foot is better."
"Oh, then the right foot. The right shoulder."
Yan Nangui readily agreed, saying, "I don't really have a knife to look for. Shuanzi, go find a pair of scissors."
Shuanzi agreed and went to find it.
Although the scissors used for sewing are not large, they are still sharp.
Xiao Liangyuan cursed angrily, but Yan Nangui ignored her completely.
She then ordered, "Find a stick. If this shoulder can bump into people, give it a good beating."
Chanyi waved her hand, and the little girl went to find her.
Shuanzi took action; he was stronger.
"Slap me on the shoulder, not too many, thirty is fine. I advise you not to dodge, I don't care if you slap my face."
Menglazhu wasn't incapable of understanding; she simply couldn't speak the Central Plains dialect. At this moment, she was both afraid and angry, and she shouted loudly at the door.
Unfortunately, the three old women were like gatekeepers, and Xiao Shi couldn't get in at all.
Shuanzi raised the stick and started whipping her, sparing no effort, he hated Xiao Liangyuan to death.
What is this? It starts causing trouble the moment it enters the mansion. What is it?
The first strike missed its mark because Menglazhu dodged it.
So it was drawn on a very indescribable spot.
This was even more stimulating than being slapped on the shoulder; Menglazhu's eyes rolled back immediately.
Shuanzi didn't hold back either, and slapped Menglazhu's shoulder again. Before Menglazhu could react, he had already retaliated with several more blows.
She really didn't dare to dodge; she thought the first blow was intentional as well.
The pain made my forehead sweat.
Xiao Liangyuan had finished her tirade at the door, and had even attracted the attention of others. Zhang Chenghui, who lived not far away, also came over, but she watched from a distance, not wanting to offend any of them.
After thirty strokes, Shuanzi was covered in sweat.
Yan Nangui looked at the person lying on the ground and smiled: "Why bother?"
Menglazhu was too weak to struggle anymore; she could only cry.
Yan Nangui took the scissors from the maid: "Is my maid easy to bully?"
She pinched Menglazhu's chin: "Your master used to be called a princess, and you used that to bully people quite a bit, didn't you? Your master has inquired about so many things, how come she didn't know that the person I hate the most... is the princess? Hmm?"
Menglazhu was so frightened that she trembled and cried out.
Yan Nangui smiled and said, "If someone's foot can step on you, you can't just not hit them, right?"
Menglazhu was so frightened that she kept pulling her feet back.
Yan Nangui said calmly, "Shuanzi, thirty strokes."
Shuanzi yelled and slapped his foot.
She missed the first time and dodged quickly, but since she was tied up, Shuanzi didn't care if she dodged; he would just hit her again if she did.
It took some effort, but I still managed to finish the thirty strikes.
Even if a stick hits you, it doesn't necessarily break bones, but this right foot is probably seriously injured.
While Menglazhu was catching her breath, Yan Nangui suddenly raised the scissors and stabbed them into the palm of her left hand, which was placed on the ground.
Meng Lazhu screamed even with the tattered cloth covering her, and Xiao Liangyuan at the door was so frightened that she took a step back.
The scissors weren't long, but they still managed to pierce through the back of my hand.
Menglazhu raised her hand in pain. At that moment, Yan Nangui pulled the rag out of her mouth: "How do you feel?"
Menglazhu dared not curse anymore. She was trembling all over in pain, her body covered in sweat mixed with the dirt rolling on the ground, and she curled up and shook.
He even said in a very broken Central Plains dialect, "I wouldn't dare..."
Yan Nangui smiled, pulled out the scissors, which made her scream again.
Yan Nangui wiped the scissors on the still relatively clean parts of her clothes: "Look, why bother? It's a holiday, why do you have to make things difficult? Ah, what a beautiful day, look at this moonlight, why do you have to do something so bloody?"
Menglazhu shrank back, shaking her head desperately, terrified beyond measure.
Xiao Liangyuan, who had been standing at the door, hadn't spoken since then. She hadn't left, but just stood there watching, her eyes flashing with a complex light.
Zhang Chenghui, even more frightened, grabbed the maid's hand.
Yan Nangui smiled and said, "So, are Xiao Liangyuan and Zhang Chenghui here to keep me company while I admire the moon?"
Zhang Chenghui hurriedly said, "I...I heard...I heard a noise and thought something had happened, so I came to check. I'm sorry to have disturbed Consort Yan."
"It's alright."
"Yan Nangui, you are truly heartless! I will definitely tell His Highness about your cruelty! You will not be able to hide what happened today." Consort Xiao finally spoke.
"Oh, is Sister Xiao so petty? Wasn't it your maid who bullied my people first?" Yan Nangui smiled and said, "I was just disciplining a servant. I don't think His Highness will mind."
"You're just relying on your father and brother!" Xiao Liangyuan retorted angrily. "What right do you have, a woman who can't have children?"
"Sigh, you always bring this up. I can't have children, but I live comfortably because of my father and brother. You can have children, but do you have the chance?" Yan Nangui shook his head: "Throw this girl out."
Shuanzi came over and pulled Menglazhu outside.
At this point, Menglazhu naturally cooperated, telling everyone to hurry up and get out of there, as staying here would be better.
Xiao Liangyuan was both anxious and furious, and she was unwilling to give up. She didn't care whether the girl lived or died, and left in a huff.
He went straight to the main courtyard to find the Crown Princess.
Yan Nangui washed his hands with the help of his maid and was no longer in a hurry to go to sleep.
We're just waiting to see if anyone from the main courtyard will come.
Menglazhu, who was standing at the door, was also helped back. Her right foot was unable to touch the ground, probably because it was the most severely injured part of her body.
The hand looks scary, but it'll heal with rest. It's hard to say what would happen if the foot had a broken bone.
Luo Kui's hand was bandaged, and her eyes were red as she said, "It's all my fault, making Liangyuan like this..."
"It's not just for you. If I go out and hit you, I'll be slapping my face. Do you think I'm some pushover?" Yan Nangui looked at her and said, "Don't cry. Take a few days off and rest well. It's not serious. Come back and I'll take care of you when you're better."
Luo Kui let out a sob and said okay.
This made Yan Nangui chuckle.
After waiting for a long time, no one from the main courtyard came. Instead, I heard that Xiao Liangyuan had gone back.
Yan Nangui scoffed, "Close the door and go to sleep."
