Chapter 226
Xu Xiangren's address of "Madam" drew everyone's attention to him.
At this moment, Niu was very anxious.
She had just been praying in her heart that the master would not acknowledge her, otherwise, it would be enough for her to be the one who lost face.
If the master's colleagues knew what I had done, it would surely embarrass him.
However, now, the master's address of "Madam" has made Madam Niu so ashamed that she is too embarrassed to face anyone.
"Oh, Lord Xu, so this lady is your wife," Ma Zhichang said to Xu Xiangren with a mocking expression.
“Your wife is quite talented,” He Ming said with a smile.
"Lord Xu really knows how to teach Madam!" Ding Fenghua couldn't help but cover her mouth and say.
"You flatter me...you flatter me!" Xu Xiangren was somewhat puzzled, not understanding what these people meant.
However, upon seeing Niu Shi being held captive, Xu Xiangren realized something was amiss.
"Who are you? Why are you holding my wife? Let her go right now!" Xu Xiangren shouted at Qingyun and the others with displeasure.
"Xu Xiangren, is this really your wife?" Mao Liu stared wide-eyed at his subordinate.
His tone was full of disbelief. Even he dared not offend Prince An, yet this man dared to let his daughter insult the future Princess An.
Not to mention the female relatives of the Vice Minister of Revenue.
Where did he, a mere sixth-rank official, get the audacity to do such a disrespectful thing to the family of a second-rank official?
No wonder Prince An sent people to come knocking on their door; this was simply outrageous.
"Please, Your Excellency, do me justice! These people are bullying my wife, and they've even come to our Taipusi (Imperial Stud) office to do so. This is a slap in the face to our Taipusi, and even more so to Your Excellency!" Xu Xiangren said to Mao Liu with a wronged expression.
Mao Jie was taken aback at first, then thought that what Xu Xiangren said seemed to make some sense.
"My lord, this is Lord Xu's family matter." Wei San, the Vice Minister of the Court of Imperial Stud, quickly tugged at Mao Liu's sleeve and carefully reminded him.
Mao Liu then suddenly realized that this was Xu Xiangren's family matter and had nothing to do with their Taipusi (Imperial Stud).
“Xu Xiangren, this is your family matter. Don’t drag our Imperial Stud into it. You’re blind to the truth and you’ve offended Prince An. Humph, don’t let the people from our Imperial Stud become your scapegoats.” Mao Liu added, thinking of Qingyun’s identity.
"What Prince An's Mansion?" Xu Xiangren looked at Madam Niu with some confusion. Didn't she say that she wanted her daughter to seduce Li Tianyou?
When did he provoke Prince An again?
He had been in the capital for so long, but he had never met Prince An, only heard of his illustrious reputation.
His desire to get involved with Li Tianyou was also driven by the Li family's wealth, and...
By the way, isn't Li Tianyou's daughter the future Princess An?
Could it be that Lady Niu sent someone to seduce Li Tianyou, and Prince An found out?
"Madam? What have you done?" Xu Xiangren asked, his voice trembling as he looked at Madam Niu.
Upon hearing this, Madam Niu's eyes darted away. She wanted to speak, but she knew she couldn't reveal what she had done in front of the Imperial Stud. Otherwise, the master would surely not let her off easily.
Xu Xiangren frowned as he looked at Madam Niu, thinking about the matter of telling his daughter to seduce Li Tianyou. He wondered if the matter had been exposed.
