If His Majesty finds out how he treated his wife, his entire family will be wiped out!
After he finished slapping her, her already injured face became even more red and swollen!
Bai watched his performance quietly, a cryptic smile on her face.
"Manager Min! What did I say before? You've probably already forgotten, haven't you? Should I repeat it again?"
Min Liang immediately knelt down and kowtowed three times!
"Madam, I have kept everything you said in mind, I haven't forgotten it for a moment, but what happened today is really not my fault!"
"Although my nephew did have his faults, I have tried my best to make amends. It was this girl and this old man who were truly greedy. I have already offered to pay for the old man's and the girl's fiancé's medical treatment and even buy everything the girl picked out today as an apology. But I never expected that these two would not only be ungrateful but also make outrageous remarks and try to kill my nephew. My nephew acted impulsively and was young and terrified, so he used some force when he resisted, which led to this situation!"
"And that little boy next to him, I don't know who sent him, but he not only knows that my nephew is the third child in the family, but he also knows a lot of other things!"
“Min Jie, though young and frivolous, did speak somewhat lightly, but that doesn’t warrant being beaten to such a state. And his guards were also beaten beyond recognition by this young master!”
"Someone of such dubious origin who dares to commit violence in the street! Could he be a spy from an enemy country?!"
"That's why I was thinking of reporting it to the authorities! I never expected that my little matter would bother Madam!"
"This is not a big deal. If Madam has other matters to attend to, please go and take care of them first. I will report back to you after I have dealt with this matter!"
Bai nodded with a cold smile!
"Min Liang! You're quite something. I always thought you were honest and kind, and with a general coming out of your family, I took good care of you. I never expected your Min family to be like this, taking advantage of my kindness!"
"You deceived me in public!"
"Your actions have truly chilled my heart."
Upon hearing this, Min Liang's heart skipped a beat. A bad feeling crept into his mind. Could it be that the lady already knew about his nephew's misdeeds? This was a way of giving him a way out, but it couldn't be! Although Min Jie was greedy and lustful, he wasn't stupid. For example, just now, he only said some provocative words, but he spoke very softly, with his back to the onlookers, quietly talking to the girl. And the matter of hiring people to do the dirty work must have been handled very cleanly; otherwise, the government wouldn't have allowed him to live outside until today!
Thinking this, he felt a little more confident. He figured the lady might have heard some rumors, but she had no evidence. She had come today to give him a warning, but he was unlucky. The lady had just finished warning her nephew when he did this, and she caught him in the act! Anyway, everyone around saw it. It was the young lady and the old man who attacked his nephew first, and although the young master's background was unknown, judging from his clothes, he wasn't a nobleman!
Moreover, he wasn't accompanied by any guards or family members. He might have been a noble young master before, but his family must have suffered a tragedy, leaving him all alone. That's why he knew some martial arts and managed to escape to this place!
It's easier to deal with someone like that if they're labeled a spy!
As if he had made up his mind, he kowtowed three more times!
"Madam! I truly uttered not a single falsehood."
"If you don't believe me, just ask the people around here."
“These people can all testify for me.”
"Those two, grandfather and grandson, really don't know what's good for them. I even suspect they're deliberately trying to scam me. Otherwise, why would a poor family like theirs come to Liuli Pavilion to buy things? The items in Liuli Pavilion are extremely expensive; only wealthy girls would come here to buy!"
"This person must have figured out my nephew's personality, so he deliberately came to seduce him!"
The little girl was so ashamed and indignant upon hearing this that she felt like she could die!
She cried and roared, "You heartless beast! I thought you were a good person, but I never imagined you were just like that beast!"
“It was Min Jie who ran into me a few days ago, and then he kept pestering me, trying to coerce and entice me to become his concubine. When I refused, he sent people to beat my future husband’s legs!”
"Now they're even blocking the entrance to the Liuli Pavilion, harassing me several times, and sending their lackeys to forcibly drag me home. It's all thanks to this young master's timely appearance, otherwise I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to keep my life up until Qingming Festival!"
"The reason I came to this Glazed Pavilion is that my grandfather used all his savings to choose a dowry for me!"
“My grandfather worked hard all his life and only earned this much money. He always advised me to spend the money I won on myself, but he insisted on saying that when I got married one day, he would buy me a bracelet from the best jewelry store!”
"That way, even if I have no parents or brothers to rely on, the man's family won't look down on me!"
"I didn't expect this..."
"grandfather……"
"It's all my fault..."
Min Jie listened to the little girl's sobbing and tried to interrupt her several times, but as soon as he opened his mouth, a long knife was placed against his neck!
It made him tremble all over, and he didn't dare to utter a sound!
Min Liang is in the same situation!
He truly hadn't expected that the lady would actually believe that little girl's one-sided story and draw her weapon against them without any evidence!
Even after the little girl finished crying, the knife was still firmly held against their necks!
Min Liang said in a trembling voice, "Madam! You can't just listen to this little maid's side of the story!"
"That little girl looks like a repeat offender."
"Are there really families who would give all their possessions to a little girl as a dowry?"
"She's probably even making incoherent nonsense."
"However, in my opinion, this little girl might be in cahoots with that little boy; she's definitely a spy from an enemy country! Her goal is to sow discord between us!"
"After all, General Min Heng is currently in a standoff with the enemy!"
"He commands thousands of soldiers to protect the country! If he were to find out that the lady had punished his clansmen because of the words of a few people, he would probably have a lot of complaints!"
"That will inevitably cause trouble for His Majesty!"
Min Jie hurriedly chimed in, "Yes, Madam! The timing of these people's appearance is far too suspicious!"
