Chapter 174: Teaching a lesson
The little maid was holding a white medicine box in her hand.
As soon as Ji Yuntang and Taozhi came out, they became the focus of everyone, and everyone's eyes fell on her.
There are those who are disgusted, those who sympathize, those who just want to watch the fun, and those who care...
Ji Yuntang ignored everyone's gaze and got on the carriage with Taozhi.
The place she went this time was the Chai Mansion of the richest businessman in Dongchen Kingdom, which is also the home of Chai Minghao.
Last time I promised to help treat the other party, and now the time has come.
The carriage moved forward slowly, and the wheels made a creaking sound as they pressed on the bluestone road.
Taozhi chatted with Ji Yuntang in the carriage about the gossip she had just heard.
"Your Highness, I just heard someone say that Madam Xu couldn't stand the torture and died in the Dali Temple cell. Her body has rotted."
Ji Yuntang's expression remained unchanged, and he said in a cold voice: "She will suffer for her own sins. Even if she dies eight or ten times, it will not make up for the damage she has done to Ah He."
Taozhi didn't say anything else, but she agreed with Ji Yuntang's point of view in her heart.
Aunt Xu had done this entirely her own fault. If she had had a little conscience and done less evil, she wouldn't have ended up in such a miserable way.
"Princess, we have arrived at Mr. Chai's house."
Another quarter of an hour passed until the coachman's voice was heard outside, and Ji Yuntang and Taozhi jumped off the carriage.
What comes into view is a magnificent mansion with green bricks and tiles, carved beams and painted buildings. The four corners of the eaves are raised high, like an eagle spreading its wings. There are two large stone lions at the door, which are majestic and powerful, and a carved gold-plated plaque emits golden light in the sun.
"Wow, is this the Chai Mansion of Dongchen's richest businessman? It's so huge and magnificent. Its scale is comparable to the Crown Prince's Eastern Palace, right?"
Taozhi couldn't help but be surprised. After she finished speaking, she happily ran over and knocked on the door.
"Princess, please wait here for a moment. I will knock on the door right away."
Unexpectedly, as soon as the door inside was opened, Taozhi was kicked out and the back of her head hit the ground.
After a while, a pool of blood appeared on the ground.
"Where did you come from, you wild girl? How dare you come here and act wildly? Didn't you see that I was in a hurry to go out? You even dared to block my way. You really don't know how to live or die!"
A young man wearing a pink brocade robe and holding a folding fan came out. He had a vulgar temperament, ordinary looks, and upturned phoenix eyes. His clothes were embroidered with large peony flowers, making him look very showy.
He didn't even look at Taozhi, he just walked past her and was about to get on the four-horse carriage parked at the door.
Suddenly, a dagger with a cold glow flew from somewhere and stabbed directly into the carriage.
"You want to leave after hurting someone? Is there such a cheap thing in the world?"
The cold voice of a woman came to his ears, which scared the young man in pink. He turned around and met Ji Yuntang's cold and heartless eyes, as if he was stared at by a poisonous snake. The murderous intent in it made him unable to help but feel frightened.
He took a few steps back and said incoherently: "You... who are you? Do you know who I am? How dare you block my way? Believe it or not, I will have your legs broken!"
Ji Yuntang's gaze fell on his right leg, feeling cold to the bone and murderous intent revealed.
"You just used this leg to kick down the peach branch, right? So there's really no need to keep it."
The next second, Ji Yuntang kicked the man in pink directly on the knee.
With a "crack", the sound of broken bones seemed very loud and crisp in the silent space.
At the same time, the man's screams like a pig being slaughtered rang in everyone's ears.
"what!!!"
The four servants behind him turned pale with fright. They hurriedly lifted him up and brought him into the mansion.
One of the servants glared at Ji Yuntang and said something harsh.
"You, you are so brave that you dare to hit our second young master. You are dead!"
After he said that, he ran away.
"Quick, go get a doctor for the Second Young Master."
Ji Yuntang didn't say anything. She quickly walked to Taozhi's side, helped her up, and checked the wound on the back of her head.
The wound was not big, but it was abrasioned and bleeding. Ji Yuntang breathed a sigh of relief.
"Fortunately, it's just some superficial injuries, no vital injuries."
She opened the medicine box and bandaged Taozhi skillfully.
Taozhi's eyes were red, "Princess, I am just a servant, with a worthless life. You really shouldn't have stood up for me just now."
"This is the Chai Mansion. They are a wealthy family with a lot of assets. If you injure their second young master, you might get into a lot of trouble."
"How about I go and ask that young master to..."
"Shut up!" Ji Yuntang glared at her. This little girl had been with her for so long, but she was still weak at heart. She was afraid of causing trouble for her.
"Do you think there will be no trouble if I don't hurt him?"
"It was the peacock who attacked you first, and I fought back later. Even if the people from the Chai Mansion come to ask for an explanation, we are still right. What is there for a person with a right to be afraid of?"
Taozhi was speechless. This was happening at someone else's doorstep. Their princess was really too tough.
After a while, the door opened and a middle-aged man and woman in gorgeous clothes rushed out. They were both covered in rubies and started cursing.
"Which little bitch just broke my son's leg!?"
"Who are you calling a bitch?" Ji Yuntang raised his eyebrows and asked back.
The woman didn't even think about it and responded directly: "Little bitch scolds you!"
Ji Yuntang looked at her meaningfully, his voice trailing off.
"Oh~ So the little bitch was scolding me!"
"You dare to insult the princess of the dynasty and disregard my Dongchen royal family. Taozhi, go and slap this princess in the face twenty times!"
Ji Yuntang glanced at Taozhi and saw that her face was pale, so he immediately rolled up his sleeves.
"Forget it, you are injured and it is inconvenient for you to do anything. Just rest aside and I will do it myself."
As soon as Ji Yuntang finished speaking, the person opposite her felt a burning pain on his face before he could even see clearly how she moved.
In an instant, five bright red finger marks appeared on her face.
"Clap! Clap! Clap!"
However, this was not the end yet. Ji Yuntang grabbed the woman's collar and started punching her left and right.
"Ahhh! Husband, please save me!"
Screams, the sounds of fists, and cries for help came one after another, stunned the middle-aged man who was called "husband" next to him.
After realizing what was happening, he immediately ordered the servants behind him to separate the two people.
"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and pull this crazy woman away!"
The servants rushed forward instantly.
At this moment, a serious and angry voice sounded from inside the door.
"How dare you! I, the head of the family, will see who dares to touch her!"
……
I'm going to change the title of the book. Does anyone have any recommendations?
