Chapter 362 The daughter of the governor of Youzhou is quite arrogant
"Master, keep your voice down, keep your voice down..." The housekeeper immediately stepped forward to stop Lin Luoxi when he heard her excited voice.
"Lin Shu, what's wrong?" Lin Luoxi looked at the housekeeper with a puzzled expression.
"Master, the daughter of the Governor of Youzhou, Nangong Zhu, has a rule that anyone who makes a loud noise will be punished by having their tongue pulled out..."
"Since no one stood up against her inhumane behavior, she has become even more emboldened to take pleasure in pulling out other people's tongues."
Lin Shu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Lin Luoxi obediently lower her voice. He cautiously looked outside the door before quietly explaining the reason to Lin Luoxi.
"Hmph, the daughter of a prefectural lord actually has such an air of authority." Lin Lingtian, who had heard the commotion in his room, came out and heard the steward's words, and couldn't help but snort coldly.
"Everyone inside, come out..." Lin Lingtian had just finished speaking when an extremely arrogant shout came from outside the door.
"It's over, boss, it's over, that female demon is here..." Lin Shu had lived in Youzhou for a long time, so he was naturally familiar with the voice of Nangong Zhu, the governor of Youzhou.
"Butler Lin, please stay here for now." Seeing that the butler was trembling with fear, Lin Luoxi immediately told him to hide.
"Master, let me do it!" Lin Shu did not let Lin Luoxi step forward. Instead, he stood in front of Lin Luoxi and the others like a warrior going to his death, looking at the large crowd at the door.
"Butler, you wait here for a moment, we'll go out and take a look..." Lin Luoxi was very satisfied with Butler Lin's loyalty when she saw that Butler Lin did not cower behind them.
But Nangong Zhu was using her power to oppress people. If Lin Shu rushed out, nothing would change except for Lin Luo dying.
"Hmph, what a loving master and servant..." Outside the door, Nangong Zhu, who was standing at the gate with a large group of state guards, looked at Lin Luoxi's true face in the Lin family courtyard and her eyes flashed with intense jealousy.
When she saw Lin Luoxi and the housekeeper shoving each other to see her, she couldn't help but sneer.
At the same time, I couldn't help but feel smug.
Power is a good thing. With power as a backer, no one dares to contradict her when she wants to do something. That's great.
"Yes, at least we have a deep bond between master and servant, unlike you rotten bastards, I doubt anyone would be willing to be loyal to you."
Faced with Nangong Zhu's bullying, cruel, and inhumane behavior, Lin Luoxi also had no kind words.
Hearing Princess Nan's mocking words, Lin Luoxi retorted with her own sarcastic retort.
"You, you! Guards, seize that slut! How dare she talk back to me! She'll make her suffer the pain of having her tongue pulled out..."
Nangong Zhu was already jealous of Lin Luoxi's appearance, and now that he saw Lin Luoxi daring to go against him, he was so angry that he immediately ordered the people behind him to enter the Lin family mansion to arrest Lin Luoxi.
"Let's see who dares to break into people's homes. It's illegal to trespass. Besides, we haven't committed any crime. What right do you have to come into my house to arrest people?"
When Lin Luoxi saw Nangong Zhu arrogantly letting people into her house, she was so angry that she immediately stood up and reprimanded her.
"Why should I? Because I'm the daughter of the Lord of Youzhou!"
"Just for shouting and yelling here, violating the rules of Youzhou City, you deserve to be punished."
Seeing that Lin Luoxi was still trying to argue, Nangong Zhu sneered and ordered his men to go in and arrest her.
The people behind Nangong Zhu were also accomplices to evil. Upon hearing Nangong Zhu's words, they immediately rushed into the house triumphantly, intending to arrest Lin Luoxi.
"Since you're here, none of you are leaving." Seeing the group's arrogant behavior, Lin Luoxi decided to stop tolerating it.
These kinds of people don't even need to take out their halberds; they can charge forward empty-handed.
She could bring down even the Fifth Prince and the Second Prince, let alone the person in front of her, who was just a minor Youzhou governor and his arrogant and wicked daughter.
These guards might fool ordinary people, but they were all taken down by Lin Luoxi in no time when facing a master like her.
"Fine, fine, you actually dare to fight back? I'll raze this place to the ground, or I'm not Nangong Zhu..."
At this moment, Nangong Zhu had not yet realized the seriousness of the matter, and even dared to make harsh remarks to Lin Luoxi.
"Show me whatever tricks you have up your sleeve!" Lin Luoxi looked at this foolish and arrogant woman and sneered.
"Fine, you just wait." Nangong Zhu was furious when she saw Lin Luoxi's sarcastic smile. She stomped her foot and ran back to get reinforcements.
“Princess Ni Chang, actually, your cousin should come and see Nangong Zhu, then he'll know what true stupidity is…”
Seeing that Nangong Zhu had already run far away, Lin Luoxi smiled and said to Princess Ni Chang.
"Hey, you can criticize her all you want, but why are you dragging me into it too?"
"Besides, I wasn't stupid, okay? If I hadn't done that, I would have been the one chosen for a marriage alliance years ago."
Princess Ni Chang curled her lip when she saw Lin Luo Xi comparing her to that Nangong Zhu.
"I knew there wouldn't be any idiots among your royal family. You're clearly half a tiger, and you're just a sesame-filled dumpling."
Unable to hide the truth, Lin Luoxi couldn't help but compare Tangyuan to Princess Nishang.
"What is a sesame-filled glutinous rice ball? Is it delicious?" Princess Ni Chang really couldn't tell whether this metaphor was praising her or praising her.
"My sister means you're also a scheming person..." Lin Luoning, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but help explain when she saw the silly and cute Princess Ni Chang.
"Fine! You actually dare to say that I, the princess, am a wolf in sheep's clothing. But I like it."
Princess Ni Chang originally wanted to rush up and punch Lin Luoxi with her little fist, but when she saw the guards lying on the ground, she changed her mind immediately.
If you say she's all bark and no bite, then she really is. Judging from Lin Luoxi's expression, she probably won't expose her to her cousin.
"Tch, spineless!" Lin Luoning couldn't help but scoff when she saw Princess Ni Chang being so spineless in front of her second sister.
"Butler, please prepare hot water and food for us. We need to wash up and eat after we've resolved Nangong Zhu's matter..."
Seeing the butler still standing there in shock, Lin Luoxi immediately sent him away.
"Yes, boss, I'll be right there!" The butler knew he couldn't help much by staying, so he immediately jogged off to the kitchen.
"Everyone inside, get out here!" A strong, resonant male voice rang out from outside the house as soon as the butler left.
The Lin family looked towards the courtyard gate and saw that a huge crowd had completely surrounded the Lin family's house.
Standing in front of those guards was Nangong Zhu, who had just run away.
There was also a middle-aged man whose face was exactly like Nangong Zhu's; one could immediately guess the man's identity.
