After Chu Tianze left, everyone stood up. When they saw the half-dead Miss Shen lying in the middle of the room, they couldn't help but frown. They had all seen the Prince of Yan's attitude just now. He didn't blame the Princess Consort at all. Instead, he let her vent her anger. It seemed that the Princess Consort of Yan would have to be more respectful in the future...
Madam Shen rushed to Shen Ru's side and helped her up, asking with concern, "Ru'er, how are you?"
Shen Ru was trembling with pain, her whole body shaking...
Madam Murong stepped forward and said, "Madam Chen, why don't you take Miss back first?"
Madam Shen nodded and quickly said, "What the First Madam says is true. Thank you so much for pleading for Ru'er just now..."
Madam Murong waved her hand, then summoned several maids, "You all help take Miss back." She also looked down on Chen Ru, and her pleading for her was only for Xiao'er's sake...
"yes"
Bai Chuxiao returned to the main courtyard without saying a word. Lanxiang, Qingshuang, and Qingzhu exchanged a glance. They rarely saw their young lady so angry, and for a moment they didn't know what to do...
Chu Tianze quickly caught up, tugged at her sleeve, and whispered, "Xiaoxiao, don't be angry, okay..."
Bai Chuxiao shook him off and slammed the door shut, leaving Chu Tianze and several maids outside.
Lanxiang cautiously observed Chu Tianze's expression and said, "Your Highness, perhaps we should come later, after the Princess Consort has calmed down."
Chu Tianze paused, lowered his hand from the door, and said, "Take good care of the Princess," before leaving dejectedly. He realized he had been wrong this time. Xiaoxiao had mentioned Shen Ru's matter before, but he hadn't taken it to heart. No wonder Xiaoxiao was ignoring him...
"Yes," the group replied cautiously.
Bai Chuxiao was somewhat agitated. She didn't want to see people constantly making advances towards Chu Tianze, nor did she want to always deal with this kind of thing. Although she knew Chu Tianze didn't have any ulterior motives, she just inexplicably felt angry with him...
She picked up a notebook and flipped through it, trying to forget about the incident, but she couldn't concentrate on reading it...
After thinking for a moment, she picked up the Peerless Sword from the side, opened the door, and ordered, "Go, set up some dummies."
"Yes," Qing Shuang and Qing Zhu quickly replied.
Lanxiang asked softly, "Miss, what's wrong?"
Bai Chuxiao took a handkerchief and carefully wiped the Peerless Sword. "It's alright."
Scarecrows were quickly set up in the courtyard. Bai Chuxiao's eyes were cold. She threw aside her handkerchief and swiftly moved among the scarecrows.
In no time, the scarecrow was hacked to pieces. Murong Che and Murong Shuo, who had rushed over to see Bai Chuxiao, were both somewhat frightened by the sight.
"Young Master, Third Young Master," Lanxiang and the others hurriedly said.
Murong Che said in a deep voice, "What's wrong with Sister Xiao? Where is the Prince?" He had already scolded Shen Ru severely enough; she shouldn't be this angry...
Qingzhu cautiously spoke up, "Miss seems to be angry with the Prince."
Murong Shuo frowned and said, "Wasn't everything fine before? Could it be that Your Highness really has something going on with that Shen Ru?"
They didn't see what happened ahead, but when Sister Xiao was reprimanding Shen Ru, the Prince of Yan didn't seem to say much.
Thinking of this, Murong Shuo said angrily, "How dare he bully Sister Xiao! I'll go and settle the score with him!" Perhaps the Prince of Yan's ambitions have grown too great, and he no longer takes Sister Xiao seriously. She's his only sister, and he can't tolerate this...
Lanxiang quickly said, "Third Young Master, please don't be impulsive... perhaps..."
Before she could finish speaking, Murong Che had already quickly walked out, leaving everyone with only his back view...
Qingzhu quickly spoke up, "The Prince and Shen Ru shouldn't have any dealings. Young Master, you should go and check on them."
It's all her fault for not explaining things clearly, which caused the Third Young Master to misunderstand...
Murong Che looked at Bai Chuxiao, who was still venting her anger on the dummy and refused to stop, and said helplessly, "Take good care of Sister Xiao."
They immediately gave chase. The four of them couldn't beat Chu Tianze before, so what was their third brother thinking, fighting alone?
Murong Shuo had barely left the main courtyard when he ran into Chu Tianze.
Without wasting words, Murong Shuo drew his sword and angrily shouted at him, "Your Highness, have you done something to wrong Sister Xiao?"
Chu Tianze had gone back to instruct Murong Cheng to settle the guests ahead, and was planning to come back to see Xiaoxiao. Who knew that he would run into his third brother-in-law before even reaching the main courtyard?
However, he wasn't in a good mood either, and too lazy to explain, he coldly brushed aside the sword and said, "Get out of the way..."
Seeing his reaction, Murong Shuo became even more certain of his guess. The Prince of Yan and the Shen family had both lived in Yongzhou for many years; there might be something between them that could have made Xiao Meimei so angry.
"Fine... Don't think you're so great just because you're a prince. This young master isn't afraid of you," Murong Shuo said without further ado, raising his sword and sweeping it across.
Chu Tianze had no interest in getting entangled with this brainless idiot, and without holding back, he forced him back in just over ten moves.
Murong Shuo took a few steps back, but was unwilling to give up.
Murong Che, who caught up, quickly asked, "Third brother, are you alright?"
Murong Shuo said angrily, "Brother, he's clearly involved with that Shen Ru. We can't just watch Xiao Mei suffer like this!" With that, he rushed forward again.
Chu Tianze was speechless. When did he have anything to do with Shen Ru? But his brainless brother-in-law obviously wouldn't listen to him at this moment...
Murong Che steeled his heart and rushed forward; he couldn't possibly stand by and watch his younger brother get beaten.
Chu Tianze snorted coldly. He was also seething with anger. These two had delivered themselves right to his doorstep, so he wouldn't hold back.
Just as the group began to fight, Madam Murong, Madam Song, Song Le'er, and Song Hang approached.
Madam Murong came to comfort Xiao Yatou, while Madam Song felt that since they and the Shen family were both right-hand women of the Prince of Yan, and now that such a thing had happened, they should also come to see the Princess before leaving to express their attitude...
But to their surprise, they witnessed this scene upon approaching. Song Le'er stared blankly at the two fighting the Prince of Yan, while Song Hang scratched his head. The two young masters of the Murong family were truly admirable; they even dared to fight a prince… although it seemed they were no match for him at all.
Madam Murong hurriedly said, "Che'er, Shuo'er, stop it! What kind of behavior is this!"
Murong Che and Murong Shuo pretended not to hear. They had been practicing diligently lately, and perhaps the two of them could win if they joined forces...
Chu Tianze sneered. He didn't use any weapons, just punched the two men in the face. It was good to have courage, but if they wanted to teach him a lesson, they'd better go back and practice some more...
Despite taking a lot of punches, the two refused to give up. They didn't care about their injuries; although they couldn't beat Chu Tianze, they figured they could at least leave some mark on him...
Seeing the Prince of Yan's punches, Song Le'er covered her face, unable to bear the sight, "This...this..."
Madam Song turned her head and said, "The two sons of the First Madam are truly valiant..."
Madam Murong's lips twitched, and she forced a smile, "Madam Song, you flatter me..."
Madam Song quickly replied, "What are you saying, Madam? These two young masters are far superior to Hang'er..."
