Chapter 456: See Your Sincerity
Aunt Bai knew exactly what kind of person Bai Baoying was, no matter how biased she was or how she tried to cover up and distort the facts when she mentioned her son.
Maybe. It’s true.
Aunt Bai burst into tears. "I, I don't know either. He probably doesn't have the guts to do that, does he? He hasn't told me. And Bai Hu and Bai Sheng, who served him right by his side, are now being held captive in some government office. I'm afraid no one else knows about this either. Lord, what should we do?"
The Marquis of Rong'an's wife also felt embarrassed and said hurriedly, "Sister, please stop saying that. It's not certain that it's Baoying's fault. My Lord, please think of a solution. No matter what, hmph, this is a disrespect to our Rong'an Marquisate. It's simply too much!"
"snort!"
Marquis Rong'an was also very annoyed.
Marquis Rong'an went to the Jiucheng Bingmasi Yamen in person, with a very arrogant attitude, shouting and scolding, and a tough attitude, determined to take Bai Baoying away.
His wife was right. This was an insult to the Marquis's family, and he certainly wouldn't allow it.
At this point, I wonder how many people are watching the fun.
He would never allow his family to be laughed at.
Ordinary officers and soldiers of the Jiucheng Bingmasi naturally could not afford to offend Rong'an Hou, but Liang Minglang could.
When Rong'an Hou saw him, he couldn't help but sneer: "Such a small matter actually alarmed Deputy Commander Liang. It seems that your Nine Cities Military Department has been very idle recently."
Liang Minglang retorted, "The fact that the Nine Cities Military Command has a lot of free time proves that there are fewer people causing trouble in the capital. Doesn't Lord Rong'an think this is a good thing?"
"Deputy Commander Liang, please do not distort my words. That is not what I meant! My useless nephew was captured by your military department. I am here for this reason. Deputy Commander Liang, please speak."
What do you want?
Liang Minglang smiled and said, "My Lord, you are quite open-minded, but I'm afraid you can't take this person away with you today."
Marquis Rong'an was furious, "Liang Minglang! I've given you enough face, don't be so shameless."
Although Liang Minglang was also a marquis, he was not taken seriously by veteran nobles like Marquis Rong'an, not to mention that his daughter was a concubine in the palace.
Liang Minglang: "Did the Marquis give me face? How come I didn't know?"
"My Lord, you didn't even ask us why your good-for-nothing nephew was captured by us. How can you call that giving me face?"
"you--"
Marquis Rong'an glared at Liang Minglang fiercely. What he hated most was talking to a so-called upstart like Liang Minglang, who relied on his little achievements to arrogantly look down on everyone, as if he could live his whole life without asking for help from others.
There are countless upstarts who emerge and disappear quickly. How many of them can truly have the last laugh and remain standing?
Call him crazy, and he will soon know the severity of the situation.
Marquis Rong'an said coldly, "Oh? If that's the case, then I'd like to ask Deputy Commander Liang what my nephew has done to cause you, the Nine Cities Military Command, to be so relentless."
Liang Minglang: "Bai Baoying led his men to stop my wife by the back lake, verbally abusing her and ordering the servants of your mansion to take action, saying he wanted to teach my wife a lesson and let her know her place. When the military patrol encountered them, Bai Baoying used your mansion to order the military to arrest my wife and bring her back to the yamen for a beating and imprisonment."
"My Lord, did you hear me clearly? I also want to know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is."
Marquis Rong'an was completely dumbfounded. He had thought of countless possibilities, but this one was the only one he hadn't thought of. It wasn't even close to the possibility.
"How is this possible? Something must have happened!"
Liang Minglang sneered: "My wife passed through Shangluo Town on her way to Beijing and stayed in an inn first."
Liang Minglang explained the origin in a few words, and Marquis Rong'an felt even more disappointed.
He really didn't know about this, but Liang Minglang had no need to tell such a lie. It wouldn't be surprising if Bai Baoying did something like this if he ran into Madam Liang again in the capital.
He acted arrogantly under the banner of the Rong'an Marquisate, but he unexpectedly hit a wall.
Marquis Rong'an was ashamed, angry and embarrassed. How could he still have any dignity?
I went to the door angrily to ask for an explanation, but it turned out to be my fault.
With Liang Minglang's current status and position, it would be strange if that idiot Bai Baoying didn't suffer for humiliating and bullying his wife like this.
Serves you right!
That idiot, he was ignorant and only knew how to make trouble by relying on the Marquis' Mansion. He saw through his nature when they first arrived and warned his wife not to let him act too recklessly. This is the capital, even if his family is a Marquis' Mansion, it may not be able to handle everything.
The lady was not very happy after hearing this, wondering if the man looked down on her sisters from her natal family. She also said that although her nephew did not have great prospects, he was honest and upright by nature, knew his limits, and would definitely not cause trouble for the Marquis's Mansion.
Is this what you call not causing trouble for the Marquis' Mansion?
And it embarrassed him!
"This, this must be a misunderstanding." Rong'an Hou lost all his arrogance. "Baoying must not know Madam Liang's identity. If he knew, he would definitely not do this."
Liang Minglang sneered: "Why? He can do this just because she's not my wife? The Rong'an Marquis's Mansion is really so powerful!"
"No, no, that's not what I meant! I meant that Baoying has learned his lesson this time. Deputy Commander Liang has let him off the hook, so why bother with him? When he gets out, I'll have Madam and his mother bring him in to apologize."
Liang Minglang smiled and said, "That won't do. If my wife is not satisfied, I won't let him leave."
Marquis Rong'an's face darkened.
Liang Minglang: "Your Majesty doesn't want to make a big deal out of this, right? If it does, Concubine Xue in the palace will also be embarrassed.
“.”
Marquis Rong'an was almost mad with anger.
He originally wanted to use the concubine Xue in the palace to force Liang Minglang to say something, but Liang Minglang was the one who spoke first.
Insidious! Despicable! Cunning!
Marquis Rong'an walked away with a dark face.
Liang Minglang scoffed disdainfully. "So what if he has a dark face? I'm just afraid he won't have a dark face."
He packed up his things and hurried home to show off his achievement to his wife.
Marquis Rong'an returned angrily, and both his wife and Aunt Bai were shocked.
"My Lord, this is—"
"Did you have a conflict with anyone when you were staying in Shangluo Town?"
Aunt Bai was stunned and nodded quickly: "Yes, some Madam Xu, she is so arrogant——"
Marquis Rong'an sneered, "Baoying saw Madam Xu again and wanted to teach her a lesson, which led to the conflict. You probably didn't expect that Madam Xu happened to be the wife of the deputy commander of the Jiucheng Military Department. Baoying bumped into her himself, so who can he blame?"
Aunt Bai was dumbfounded.
"How could this happen, how could this happen!" Her knees went weak and she knelt down, begging Marquis Rong'an to save her son.
No wonder that woman is so arrogant!
It turns out he has a background.
