"No, we didn't! We were playing on the swings, and then we got scared when we saw her coming. Little Yu Bao wanted to get off the swing, but I didn't know how to get him off, so I pushed him aside..."
Li Changsheng's explanation was very concise. After listening, Li Chang'an nodded and then looked at Qin Yubao: "Yubao, is what happened just now as your brother said?"
Because Qin Yubao was only three years old, he couldn't recount things as simply and clearly as Li Changsheng, but he still had the most basic judgment ability.
Yes...
Qin Yubao nodded.
Li Chang'an nodded again, then looked at Qin Xiashi with an unfriendly expression, his face becoming increasingly gloomy.
"Did you two conspire together? No, it must be you who corrupted Bao Ge and taught him to lie!"
Qin Xiashi simply couldn't accept this result, because she had already convinced herself that Li Changsheng was the one bullying Qin Yubao.
Moreover, facing Li Chang'an's increasingly gloomy expression, Qin Xia was under great psychological pressure. She could not allow herself to be in the wrong, otherwise, she would be trampled underfoot in the future.
“Brother Bao, tell your mother the truth. Did he tell you to say that? Did he threaten you? Don’t be afraid. If he bullies you, your mother will stand up for you…”
Qin Xia grabbed Qin Yubao's shoulder, still unwilling to give up, hoping he would give her the answer she wanted.
Li Chang'an frowned even more deeply. She thought this woman was really delusional, actually suspecting that Qin Yubao was being threatened by Li Changsheng.
How old is this child? He probably can't even write the word "threat"!
The more Li Chang'an looked at her, the more he felt that this woman was truly unreasonable.
Qin Yubao was clearly frightened by Qin Xia's hysterical state, and he stammered and could not give a coherent answer.
Upon seeing the child's appearance, Qin Xia became even more determined in her heart. In her anger, she suddenly had a plan, thinking that she might as well take this opportunity to drive both of them out of the General's Mansion to eliminate any future troubles.
"Well, I knew it! This is outrageous! Don't think that just because you have status and position you can run wild here!"
Qin Xia's voice grew increasingly high-pitched and shrill, as if it were about to rupture one's eardrums.
Li Chang'an felt a surge of anger rising within her. Today, she had truly witnessed just how unreasonable a person could be.
"I didn't bully my brother, you're not allowed to talk nonsense! Otherwise, I, the Crown Prince, will have you, this scoundrel, killed!"
Li Changsheng couldn't tolerate being wrongly accused like this, and he pointed at Qin Xiashi and shouted in a panic. But when he moved his hand, the pain made him gasp.
Upon hearing this, Qin Xia's anger flared up instantly. How dare a brat who hadn't even grown up yet spout such nonsense in her General's Mansion?
If I don't kick these two people out today, how will I ever establish myself as the mistress of the General's Mansion?
"You think you're so great just because you're the crown prince? This is my territory! If I'd known it would turn out like this, I shouldn't have let you move in in the first place... Ah!"
Qin Xia was originally yelling and shouting at Li Changsheng, but before she could say anything about Li Changsheng packing his bags and getting out, someone grabbed her by the neck.
Li Dian'an coldly stared at the terrified face of the woman in front of her, her fair hand accurately gripping her neck.
So noisy!
They're even noisier than the birds outside!
"What do you want to do! You dare to kill someone? Let me tell you, this is the General's Mansion, you... cough cough cough..."
Qin, you never dreamed that Li Chang'an would actually attack you. She was so frightened that her mind went blank, and then she blurted out a bunch of reckless and suicidal things.
Li Chang'an felt her patience was about to reach its limit. Before the other person could finish speaking, she used even more force in her hand, choking Qin Xiashi's half-sentence into her throat and causing her to cough violently.
Seeing the woman's face turn red and purple in an instant, Li Chang'an couldn't help but turn his face away in disgust, afraid that she would spray saliva on his face when she coughed.
"I'm warning you, you'd better watch your words! Think carefully about your place. I am the mistress of the General's Mansion. If anyone should get out, it's you!"
After she finished speaking, the air around her seemed to grow colder, and Qin Xiashi's heart began to pound violently. She felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar and couldn't help but shiver.
"Madam, I've been looking everywhere for you! Young Master... Ah!"
At this moment, Qin Xiashi's personal maid, Xing'er, also came to the small garden.
Upon entering, Xing'er was so frightened by the horrifying scene that she screamed before she could even finish a sentence.
Li Chang'an glared at her coldly, his brows furrowed, and then couldn't help but think to himself, "Like master, like servant. Why do these two make such a fuss over such a trivial matter?"
That voice is wasted if it weren't used for opera!
"What do you think you can do to our lady? Let her go right now, or I'll call for help!"
Xing'er finally mustered up the courage to negotiate with Li Chang'an, but she didn't even realize that her legs were trembling with fear, and her voice was shaking and trembling with tears.
Looking at the maid's small, lone figure, Li Chang'an couldn't help but smile contemptuously, thinking to himself that she would probably be going to the Western Paradise with her master before she even had a chance to call anyone over.
Li Chang'an then released Qin Xia's neck, took out a handkerchief, and disgustedly wiped his hands while saying coldly, "Besides, things that need to be clarified also need to be clarified. Chang Sheng did not bully Yu Bao, so please don't falsely accuse people. I also trouble you to be more polite to His Highness the Crown Prince in the future. Otherwise, he really can't kill you, but do you think I have that ability?"
Qin Xia was immediately terrified, her face turning pale. Li Chang'an's words were clearly threatening. She knew perfectly well that she had no chance against him.
Seeing that her mistress was finally out of danger, Xing'er quickly ran over and helped Qin Xia Shi up.
Although she had just been ignored by Li Chang'an, she didn't dare to say a word now. If it were any other time, given her usual arrogant personality, she would definitely have been nagging and arguing with him endlessly.
"Chang Sheng, come on, I'll take you to get the medicine applied."
After saying that, Li Chang'an grabbed the somewhat stunned Li Changsheng and left.
After the two had walked away, Qin Xiashi was able to calm herself down a little.
