As for sending them to the authorities, she had no intention of sending them to the authorities.
Not to mention that she had already beaten them up, and they were not the culprits, and they did not commit any serious crimes. After sending them in, considering the extent to which Prince Ji favored his concubine over his wife Liu Furong, I'm afraid that if Liu Furong said a word, Prince Ji would immediately pull them out.
Wouldn't it be easy for a prince of a duke's mansion to rescue a few servants who have not committed any crime?
The most important thing is that the words on the wall must be preserved as evidence when the case is sent to the authorities, but today is different from the previous days. Today is the official opening day of the dance hall, and I am afraid that there will be more people coming to rent the shop tomorrow.
If people see the words on the wall, they may think that these are shops with disputes, which will affect the rental of the shops.
So she couldn't keep those words until dawn. Instead of letting Xiao Sanzi and the others suffer, it would be better to let Butler Liu experience the feeling of cleaning dozens of shops by himself.
As for Liu Furong, the mastermind, she will soon know the consequences of provoking her.
Leaving Xiao Mu and Afu here to watch, Su Li took the carriage back home. After arriving home, he explained the matter to the third son before going to bed.
The next day, a message quickly spread throughout the streets and alleys of Beijing.
In the teahouse, people were whispering and talking.
A man whispered to the person next to him, "Hey, have you heard about Prince Ji's concubine?"
One person asked, "You heard about it too?"
Another person asked, "What's the matter? Tell me."
The man replied, "It was the Duke of Ji's Mansion. Prince Ji's concubine, Liu Furong, almost killed the Duke's Mansion's eldest son, the son of Prince Ji's legal wife. If it weren't for Prince Ji's good luck, he would have died thousands of miles away."
"What! There's such a thing?"
"When did it happen? And he died thousands of miles away. What happened?" A few more people came and joined in the chat.
"It happened in August or September last year. I heard that the concubine hired someone to kidnap Young Master Ji and planned to sell him to a remote area to mine. They almost killed Young Master Ji on the way. Fortunately, Young Master Ji was lucky enough to escape. Otherwise... Tsk tsk!" The man shook his head.
"No wonder, no wonder we didn't see Young Master Ji riding horses at the riding field for several months last year. It turns out such a thing happened..." the man sighed.
The fact that Young Master Ji loves horseback riding is basically known to everyone who shares the same hobby, and no one has any doubt about this rumor.
One person said, "Women are indeed the most vicious!"
"Huh? Prince Ji doesn't care? He's his own son?"
"Well, you don't know yet, but the story of Prince Ji favoring his concubine over his wife has been circulating for a long time."
"Yes, I thought it was fake before..."
"This isn't just favoring a concubine over his wife; this is favoring a concubine over his son! They say even a tiger won't eat its own cubs. This Prince Ji is truly foolish..."
One woman couldn't help but ask, "Isn't it said that Liu Ping's wife is virtuous, beautiful and intelligent?"
The other couple sneered, "Isn't this concubine the best at putting on an act?"
"That's right, she's exactly like that vixen in my family. She's so considerate and virtuous, but she's just pretending to please men..."
In just half a day, the news that Prince Ji favored his concubine over his wife and that Liu Furong, an unruly concubine, was cruel and ruthless and wanted to kill the wife's son in order to eliminate dissidents for her son spread throughout the capital.
In an instant, everyone cursed Liu Furong for being cruel and shameless.
In the Hibiscus Courtyard of the Duke's Mansion.
The precious white porcelain vase fell to the ground with a thud, and the fragments were scattered all over the ground in an instant.
Liu Furong's heart was beating wildly, and she cursed angrily with resentment on her face: "It was Xu Rouning! It must have been that bitch who did it!"
Yes, she almost killed her son, how could that bitch let it go? It must be her!
What a vicious bitch, she just destroyed the good reputation she had built up over the years!
It was a shame that every time she tried to kill that mother and son, they were lucky enough to escape! This mother and son were born to be her enemies, they were her nemesis!
"Bitch!" With a wave of his hand, another valuable porcelain vase fell to the ground.
"Madam, please don't get angry and make yourself sick!" The maid in green kept comforting her.
Another maid came in and reported: "Madam, the prince is back."
"Husband!" Upon hearing this, Liu Furong immediately picked up her skirt and ran out of the yard. With tears in her eyes, she threw herself into the arms of Prince Ji and cried softly, pleading: "Husband, I will not live anymore, wuwuwuwu..."
Ji Jingxu, who had rushed back after hearing those rumors and was afraid of making her sad, was heartbroken when he saw his beloved woman crying so sadly.
"Husband, it was Xu Rouning. She must have done it! Who else would do this to me except her?"
Only a few people in the Duke's Mansion knew about this. The Duke would definitely not spread it out for the sake of Xuan'er's reputation. Who else would it be except Xu Rouning and her son!
"Husband, you have to make the decision for me, wuwu..."
Ji Jingxu felt very distressed and kept comforting her: "Rong'er, it's okay, don't cry, don't worry, I will go find her right away..."
In Jingning Courtyard.
A nanny was talking to Xu Ningrou: "Madam, this matter has now spread throughout the capital."
Xu Ningrou frowned slightly and asked doubtfully, "Who spread this news?"
Madam Kong felt relieved: "I don't know either, but no matter who spread it, it's the truth."
Liu Furong almost killed the eldest young master. If the eldest young master was not safe and sound, and if the Crown Prince had not strongly pleaded with the Duke, and comforted him with the reputation and future of the second young master, how could she, Liu Furong, have been confined to her house for only half a year?
But the lady was still very upset about this matter, and now that someone had spread the news, she was more than happy.
"Bang!"
At this moment, the gate of the yard was suddenly kicked open.
An angry voice came from outside the door: "Xu Rouning!"
Ji Jingxu rushed in angrily and asked sternly, "Why did you do this?"
Madam Kong quickly stood in front of the Crown Prince's wife and said, "Master, this was not done by the Lady. Please do not frame the Lady."
Ji Jingxu said angrily: "You little dog slave, get out of here! You have no right to speak here!"
"Madam, please step aside first." Xu Rouning said.
"lady?"
"Get out."
Nanny Kong was worried and left. As soon as she left the room, she quickly called the maid to inform the Duke.
Inside the house, Ji Jingxu was aggressive, his eyes filled with undisguised disgust: "Xu Rouning, you actually want to ruin Rong'er's reputation, how can you be so vicious!"
He hated her, hated this woman who was related to the Duke's Mansion by blood. Ever since he knew that she was going to be his wife, he hated her!
Xu Rouning sneered in her heart and looked expressionlessly at her husband who had been more indifferent to her than to his enemies for more than ten years.
She had cried, complained, and given in countless times, but what she got in return was still the indiscriminate scolding without asking any reason, and the disgust and hatred that still treated her and Tingyou like trash.
