Upon hearing this, the soldier frowned and said, "So what if she is a Manchu? Our young lady is of noble status and is not someone you villains can humiliate and bully."
Although it was the first time that the soldiers met Jiang Ranli, they had heard of the names of Boss Jiang and Madam Jiang in Jinan City since the disaster in Shandong began. The stories of Boss Jiang and Madam Jiang in Jinan providing relief to the victims were spread everywhere in Shandong. Therefore, they had long admired Jiang Ranli.
Now that they knew that the widely praised Mrs. Jiang was actually their own daughter, the soldiers were delighted and therefore, they began to protect Jiang Ranli.
Hearing what the soldiers said, dozens of gangsters were dumbfounded. They didn't know why the soldiers called Jiang Ranli "Miss".
"She is your lady? What kind of lady is she?" the gangster asked in great surprise.
When the soldiers heard this, they showed anger on their faces. They would not allow anyone to question their young lady, and they would not allow these hooligans to disrespect their young lady.
"Are you from the Eight Banners? Judging from your appearance, you should be from the Han Eight Banners. I am from the Manchu and Mongolian Eight Banners. If you let me go, I will not bother with you about what happened today, and I will never come here to cause trouble again. Otherwise, I will not let you go."
The arrogant guy who claimed to be from the Eight Banners continued to show off his background.
When the soldiers heard this, the flesh on their faces could not help but tremble. They were not happy, but angry.
One of the soldiers couldn't help it any longer, so he said, "We are from the Eight Banners of Manchuria and Mongolia. The current Emperor often says that Manchus and Han are one family. I didn't expect that you would use your Manchu identity to bully others here. It really brings shame to us Manchus. Besides, you look like a member of the Eight Banners, a slave of the Eight Banners."
Hearing this, the arrogant guy who had been expecting to be let go suddenly lost his expression, and his arrogance disappeared instantly, leaving only nervousness.
He originally thought that these soldiers who called Jiang Ranli "Miss" were from the Han Eight Banners, but he didn't expect that they were from the Manchu and Mongolian Eight Banners, and they immediately saw through his origin as an Eight Banners slave.
"Since you are from the Eight Banners of Manchuria and Mongolia, why do you call a Han Chinese woman Miss? Are you kidding me?" The originally arrogant man was not convinced and continued to struggle.
Now, the soldiers became even more contemptuous of him.
"Keep your mouth shut. Our young lady is the daughter of Lord An Jia, the general of Shandong. The surname Jiang is just her pseudonym. If you continue to insult our young lady, wait for someone to collect your bodies."
After saying that, the soldiers turned and left. They were too lazy to say anything to the gangsters.
Looking at their leaving backs, the gangsters hanging on the trees all looked pale. They originally thought that Jiang Ranli was just an ordinary woman, but she turned out to be someone they could not afford to offend.
When Yinzhen and the Tenth Prince learned of Anjia Oron's arrival, they hurried to the governor's mansion. As soon as they stepped into the governor's office, they were stopped by a maid.
"What's the matter? If it's nothing, get out of the way."
The Tenth Prince recognized the maid; she was someone close to Deng Ningxue.
"Something's happening, something's happening," the maid was startled by the Tenth Prince and quickly said that she had something to do. Then she looked at Yinzhen and said, "Ninth Master, our young lady wants you to come over and tell her something important."
Yin'er's handsome brows were tightly furrowed, his pair of deep and dark eyes showed no emotion at all. He looked at the maid, and opened his thin lips slightly, "I'm busy, get out of here."
