"Chuanbao, let's go find your eldest sister, Yunlan."
"The common people can't fight against officials. I don't believe that a mere merchant like the Wen family could go against the prefect."
The Zhao mother and son went directly to Zhao Yunlan and began to cry and complain.
Zhao Yunlan wasn't stupid to become the prefect's favorite concubine.
She realized after only a few words from her mother and younger brother that they were planning to steal the bride.
Zhao Yunlan didn't take a merchant seriously at all. She directly summoned a team of guards to accompany Zhao Chuanbao to the Wen family to arrest the person.
With guards from the prefect's residence present, Zhao Chuanbao stood tall and barged in headfirst.
The servants of the Wen family couldn't stop it at all. When the news reached the inner quarters, Wenrou felt extremely guilty. She never expected that she would bring such a devastating disaster upon her family.
I originally thought the prefect wouldn't show up, since he was supposed to be lecherous but still quite sensible.
Wenrou rushed into the small kitchen, grabbed a cleaver, and was about to fight Zhao Chuanbao to the death.
Ning Bao looked directly at Su Jing Shu.
"Mother, let me go!"
Su Jingshu thought for a moment, then took out a token.
"Then be careful, and hurry up and don't let your older brother do anything foolish."
At this moment, Mu Cheng'an had indeed started fighting with the guards. Zhao Chuanbao, relying on his superior numbers, directly started shouting at Mu Cheng'an.
"I heard you're the country bumpkin who tried to steal my wife. I advise you to let go of that gentle woman; I've already slept with her..."
Before Zhao Chuanbao could finish speaking, Mu Cheng'an swung his sword and slashed down...................
In the blink of an eye, just as the blade was about to touch Zhao Chuanbao's face, Leng Bing, who was hidden in the shadows, threw a hidden weapon that deflected Mu Cheng'an's knife.
Ning Bao quickly went over.
"Brother, calm down."
Do you want someone to die because of such a scumbag?
Seeing Ning Bao, Mu Cheng'an's anger subsided considerably.
"Ningbao, why did you come out? Come inside quickly! Big Brother can handle things here."
Ning Bao shook her head.
"Brother, this guy is a scoundrel, how do you deal with him?"
Watch me!
After Ning Bao finished speaking, she looked to the side.
"Someone come here!"
Even if Su Jingshu and Ning Bao tried to keep a low profile, they would still have some guards with them.
At Ning Bao's command, four guards from the Prince's residence stepped forward.
"Your subordinate is here!"
Ning Bao straightened her back and glanced at Zhao Chuanbao.
“These people attempted to assassinate me, the princess. If they kidnap me, we’ll take them to the prefect’s office to file a complaint.”
Zhou Chengxing has already reported Ning Bao's status as a princess to the emperor, and the imperial edict and the princess's identity token have already been issued and are in Ning Bao's storage talisman.
Ning Bao was still a little unaccustomed to using her status to intimidate others for the first time.
The guards of the Prince's mansion were no pushovers; they subdued Zhao Chuanbao's men in just a few breaths.
Before long, Ning Bao led his group out of the Wen residence and headed towards the prefectural government office.
...................
The prefect was stunned when he heard that someone had tried to assassinate the princess. When did their Jincheng have a princess?
However, he dared not be careless and went to check it himself. When he saw the identity token of the Prince of Zhenbei, his legs went weak.
What's going on?
This is Jiangnan, how could the young princess of the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion be here?
He was a prefect, and he also had connections in the capital. He was very aware of the power of the Prince of Zhenbei; he was definitely not someone a mere prefect like himself could afford to offend.
