Sex scandals are always the most eye-catching. When the onlookers heard that a man and a woman were having a secret rendezvous in broad daylight, right on the main street, they immediately swarmed around, craning their necks to peek into the Wenxiang Pavilion shop.
The first thing everyone saw was Wang An, who was already standing at the door.
Wang An, as one of the four little tyrants of Kyoto, was well-known; now, with the addition of a daytime secret rendezvous, no one found it hard to accept, but rather quite reasonable.
But after seeing the two women who came out next, the onlookers looked at Yao with strange eyes—where did this crazy woman come from? Is she blind?
Princess Chang's reputation for virtue is well-known in the capital. Only someone with nothing better to do would dare to slander her!
Looking at Ji Fengyao beside the eldest princess, I recalled the street attack on the day she was sent off to war.
The onlookers instinctively stepped back, and the once bustling and noisy crowd fell silent. Many timid people who didn't want to cause trouble quietly slipped away.
This bandit's melon is not to be trifled with, I can't afford to mess with him, I'm outta here!
Ji Fengyao and Shang Yuexi approached Yao Shi, and Wang An also walked up to them in a very natural and open manner.
"Tell me, who is alone with whom in a room, and who is having a secret rendezvous with whom?" Ji Fengyao asked with a half-smile, looking down at Yao Shi with a cold, sidelong glance.
Yao's two personal maids ran to her side and, seeing that the whole street was completely silent, sensed something was wrong.
One of them whispered a reminder: "Auntie, something seems off."
Yao glared at her: What's wrong with that!
Regardless of these two women's identities, once a woman is involved in matters of reputation, she's finished!
“It’s you and him!” Yao pointed confidently at Ji Fengyao and Wang An.
But she strangely discovered that after she made her accusation, the onlookers all stepped back.
Many people looked at her with undisguised sympathy.
"You must want to die..." Magpie was furious and raised his fist to rush up and punch the person.
Ji Fengyao quickly pulled the person back, smiling sweetly: "Hey, Xique, don't hit people so easily. It's almost New Year's, we need to be reasonable. Especially with the people on my father's and elder brother's list and their families, we need to be especially reasonable."
The list of the head of the gang and the eldest son?
Xi Que blinked her big eyes twice, recalling the list of officials that the young master had shown to the young lady. It seemed that Xue Yanshou, the head of the Ministry of Personnel, was on the list, and he was highlighted and given special consideration.
Upon hearing this, everyone's faces twitched.
It seems these bandits did their homework and made a list before robbing anyone; they were really dedicated!
They didn't know who was on the list, but they expressed their deepest sympathy.
Wang An immediately perked up and leaned forward to whisper, "Little sister, shall we go visit Lord Xue? Why don't we take your brother along?"
Shang Yuexi: "...Xiao An, come back."
“Oh, sister-in-law, I can’t listen to you this time. This woman is slandering me for having an affair with the Ninth Prince’s wife. I’m one of the main characters in this, so naturally I have to go to Lord Xue’s house with the Ninth Prince’s wife to have a proper talk. If we don’t clear things up with Lord Xue, our Censorate and the Ninth Prince’s Mansion will have no face to stand in the capital anymore,” Wang An said quite reasonably.
What?! The Censorate?! The Ninth Prince's Residence?!
Madam Yao was immediately shocked: even if she was ignorant, she had heard of some important people in the capital!
