Who knew that these gossipy women, seeing that Ji Fengyao was not there, were not afraid of the little bandit Xique at all, and instead revealed even more shameless and scoundrel-like faces:
"We? What did we say?"
"We just chatted for a bit, we didn't say anything!"
"That's right! You bandits want to control everything, but what about people eating and farting? We can't even control what the Prefect of the Capital can say!"
The magpie gritted its teeth in anger, nodded its little head, and asked, "Nobody can control your mouths anymore, huh?"
"Hmph!" Several gossipy women snorted in unison.
He had an arrogant look on his face that said, "What can you do to me?"
"I can't do anything to you," Xique suddenly chuckled at the gossipy women, then rolled up her sleeves and slapped them one by one. Before anyone could react, the gossipy women all had their faces turned into pig heads.
The people on the street, including Song Huiru and her two servants, were all stunned.
This bandit girl, does she dare to be so arrogant even when her master isn't around?
The gossipy women were also a bit confused when they realized what was going on: Wasn't it said that as long as the bandit Ninth Prince's wife wasn't around, this bandit girl could be manipulated at will?
They must not have been fierce enough to scare the girl.
So the gossipy women unleashed their best skills, each one trying to outdo the other in their loudest wailing and lamentation:
"Help! Bandits are committing violence in the street!"
"Is there no justice left? Right under the emperor's nose, bandits are beating people in the street!"
Lin Shuang was somewhat intimidated by the group of shrewish women, and knowing that the Ninth Prince and Princess were not in the capital, she felt uneasy. She stepped forward again and pulled Xi Que aside, whispering, "Miss Xi Que, perhaps we should return to the manor first..."
"We can't go back," the magpie answered lightly, then raised its voice eight octaves, arrogantly putting its hands on its hips and saying, "Wailing? Haven't you had enough yet?"
The gossipy women trembled at her words, and their wailing stopped abruptly.
At this moment, Song Huiru stepped forward softly and advised, "Miss, it's better to forgive and forget about it."
As soon as she said this, the group of gossipy women seemed to have received a divine blessing:
“Miss Song is so kind. If you could enter the Ninth Prince’s mansion and persuade him to control these bandits, that would be a blessing for the people of our capital.”
"Look at this young lady, so beautiful and of such good character. If she enters the Ninth Prince's mansion, she'll surely have good news within a year. Unlike some bandits, who aren't even favored by Heaven; they finally get one, and then it's gone!"
Upon hearing this, the magpie could no longer hold back and rushed forward to slap him again.
"Slap! Slap! Slap! Slap!"
"ah!"
"oh!"
"oh!"
"Awooo!"
A resounding slap accompanied the horrific screams of the gossipy women. Blood and teeth flew everywhere, tears and snot streamed down their faces, and all the gossipy women were knocked to the ground.
The magpie kicked them one by one, then stepped on the woman who said "the child is gone," and said fiercely, "Our young lady was carrying the royal child, and even if she lost it, it was still the royal child. You are all so gloating; who knows, my young lady's loss of her pregnancy might be because of your curses behind her back! You dare to curse and harm the royal offspring behind their backs; you deserve to die, but your entire family should be exterminated!"
"This lady..."
Song Huiru was about to come up and pretend to be a good person, but Xi Que glared at her fiercely and stopped her: "Stop with your hypocritical act. I've seen plenty of people like you. I'm not buying it!"
