"Meet the island owner!" Mr. Rong simply bowed to show his respect, without making much of a salute.
"Uncle, please come in and sit down. This angle is very good to see the talented women and heroes of our island."
Ye Yu moved his large chair a little further away and looked at Master Rong without caring about whether he saluted or not. Of course, since he was the elder of the island owner, Sha Ye did not dare to say a word.
Mr. Rong glanced at Ye Yu, then turned around and looked at Xia Zibing and Chen Xue bitterly. He said with an unhappy expression: "Island Master, I came here tonight to ask for a favor from the Island Master. Please forgive me, Island Master."
Yan Luo, his knees were not bent at all when he was saluting just now. But this time, his legs were bent as if he had been hit by something. He knelt down instantly.
"Uncle, why is this happening?" Ye Yu was startled and quickly ordered: "You won't help me up yet."
"yes!"
Sha walked over and prepared to pull up the heavy body.
"No, I am in trouble. I would like to ask the island owner to make the decision for me about today's matter. If the island owner does not agree, I would rather die than I can afford."
After listening to this, Xia Zibing had two black lines on her head. What the hell, are you relying on your old man to show off your strength, or forcing you with authority? What nonsense, if she were the owner of the island, she would never listen to this old guy. It's so abominable!
"Uncle, no matter what grievances you have, I don't believe that there are people on Liyuan Island who dare to bully my uncle. However, my uncle's way of speaking seems threatening."
Ye Yu's words were still gentle, but there was no doubt about it. This is the majesty that a monarch should have. When he heard these words, although he was not biased towards her, Xia Zibing felt very happy to see the old man embarrassed.
.
"I don't dare..." This time, Mr. Rong seemed to feel the cold at the height, and his body shivered miraculously. His dignity was reduced by half as he knelt on the spot.
"Uncle, please tell me!"
Ye Yu's voice was slightly respectful.
"Yes!" As he spoke, Mr. Rong stood up and turned to look at Xia Zibing, "Island Master, today is the festival for worshiping the moon. My only daughter followed the teachings of her ancestors and came to participate in this annual holy festival. But she didn't want to
I wanted to find an inn to take a rest on the way, but this damn woman insisted on fighting with my daughter for the only remaining room. Rong Yue was kind-hearted and didn’t want to argue with her, so she voluntarily quit.
Wu Yi said that Rong Yue was not worthy of occupying a room with her. Not only did he beat her face like a flower until it was red and swollen, but he also broke off one of her fingers. Now he still dares to stand here. You really don't know what is good or bad! Look at this!
The king’s law is nothing!”
Mr. Rong spoke through gritted teeth and saliva. He was very forgetful when he spoke. Of course, the play was not over yet.
"The holy moon is silent, but it is watching all this from the sky. Please let the island master make the decision for me and punish this damn woman!" When I glanced at Chen Xue, I remembered that there was another person in the portrait that my daughter asked someone to draw.
"Oh, there is also this accomplice!" He pointed his hand horizontally at Chen Xue. Chen Xue was shocked and really didn't recover for a long time.
Xia Zibing, on the other hand, had a smile on her face. Watching this man acting, she almost laughed out loud. But after he finished speaking, she had to cooperate and acted more sadly. She was helpless. She was as nervous as Chen Xue.
However, after a moment of silence, there was a commotion again. After listening to Master Rong's words, many people pointed at Xia Zibing and Chen Xue, and the good impression they had just vanished.
"Xue'er, is this really happening?" Yan Feng seemed a little impatient now. Looking at the main culprit at this moment, he was also helpless for a moment. Yan Feng became even more panicked.
"Yes!" Chen Xue finished her words and looked at Yan Feng, "Do you still insist on standing on the front line with me?"
The helplessness and expectation in Chen Xue's eyes fell on Yan Feng's, and he felt a pain in his heart. He didn't say how difficult it was to get here. He didn't say why she could believe him just now but now...
"Xue, what do you think?" Yanfeng said softly.
"I hope you don't!" She finally spoke her mind. Today they were offending the island owner's uncle. She knew this very well. She could not implicate her beloved because of her own affairs.
"No, now that I'm here I won't leave!"
Only at this moment did Yan Feng truly understand what Chen Xue was thinking. This was a dedication to him. He held her in his arms regardless of the presence of outsiders.
Xia Zibing sighed slightly, her eyes changing from dull to bright.
"Island Master, I think what Mr. Rong said is right." Xia Zibing looked at Ye Yu leisurely, with a light gaze, and looked at everyone's weird looks with disdain, "Shengyue is silent, but it is real.
I am watching everyone on the ground, including whether their inner world is dirty. The island owner enjoys the same happiness as the people, and should know the sufferings of the people. The daughter of the people believes that the island owner will never listen to one-sided words."
As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Zibing herself felt cold. What did she say? They were all compliments to him!
When Mr. Rong heard this, he was really furious. His face suddenly turned the color of pig liver. If he hadn't heard that Xia Zibing was very good at martial arts, more than a dozen people would have been unable to do anything to her. He really wanted to rush up and slap the woman.
"Island owner Mingjian, the daughter of an old minister is still lying in bed. The left side of her face is so swollen that Lao Gao is afraid that she will never see anyone again. Lihua is crying miserably in the rain. The doctor said that Yue'er's hands can no longer play the piano.
.That finger will be useless from now on." As he spoke, he cried more miserably than anyone else.
"What else can you say?"
For a long time, I heard lazy but murderous words coming from within the crystal curtain.
Xia Zibing knew very well that this man was angry. However, it was none of her business whether he was angry or not. At that time, the woman was the one who acted tyrannically. She was fighting back in self-defense. If she had been in the previous life, there would have been no reason to arrest her.
"There's so much to say." Xia Zibing didn't make any waves. She just wanted to test Xue'er's loyalty to this man again. Haha, it turns out she was suspicious. Thinking of this, Xia Zibing raised her eyebrows and said seriously,
"Will the island owner give untouchables like us a chance to speak?"
She deliberately emphasizes the untouchables, ahem, of course to arouse the sympathy of these people. As a common people, she naturally means what she says, and she must have been bullied by this man on weekdays. Of course she will seize this opportunity. And Ye Yu also
You can't help but understand this. Hundreds of people in the Yuesheng Temple are looking at him like this. If he openly favors his uncle and cousin, all the previous achievements will be wasted and the people's support will be lost.
Although the man under the crystal curtain is wearing a mask, you can clearly see from the wrinkles between his eyebrows and the cold eyes that the man is angry. Damn it! It was the first time that he was choked to death by a woman. There was actually
He felt like he was out of breath. Hum, this woman was really not an extraordinary thing. He was becoming more and more interested.
"You have already said that I am happy with the people. How can I protect my shortcomings?" He had to speak out. However, because of this, his image seemed to be a little taller.
Master Rong's face suddenly turned darker. Unexpectedly, this woman had well-developed limbs and a very bright mind. He really looked down upon her.
"The room that Mr. Rong mentioned was booked by Xue'er and me at a high price. I wanted to have a good rest. But I didn't expect that after Miss Rong Yue's bodyguard went upstairs, because the guests in other rooms did not dare to offend, and when the room was opened,
When Xueer and I were in the room, we saw that we were women and just common people. They started robbing us without asking any questions. At that time, I felt sorry for Miss Rong Yue because her journey was so miserable that I really couldn't turn her away.
Thinking that we are all women, it is okay to live in the same room. But Miss Rong Yue relies on her father's official authority to act arrogantly." Xia Zibing paused, looked at Master Rong and continued: "She actually walked up to me and said...
She scolded me for being of low origin and not worthy of being in the same room with her. If I had not resisted at that time, I would be the one with the red and swollen face now, right? If she hadn't pointed her finger at my nose and scolded you, you think I would have broken one of her hair.
Fingers? Could it be that the state officials only need to set fires and not allow the people to light the lamps, Master Rong?"
Of course, pointing to the nose is a bit exaggerated. After all, Rong Yue was just pointing at her, which made her very unhappy.
After listening to the two people's lines, almost many people were reluctant to leave. There were many discussions, but Xia Zibing's words undoubtedly touched the hearts of everyone present. Because there were more civilians present, and some wealthy children were often bullied by that person. So
, Xia Zibing’s voice was much louder than Master Rong’s. Xia Zibing had a lot of advantages just in terms of speaking. Chen Xue immediately became energetic and looked at Yanfeng and seemed to feel that there was hope. A dead game of chess was obviously resurrected.
signs.
"Don't listen to their nonsense, Island Master, everything Wei Chen said is true." Master Rong was obviously a little anxious, "I have already invited witnesses on the spot, and the Island Master will know as soon as he asks."
To be honest, I just bribed a few people.
"I remember that except for Miss Rong Yue's few bear-bag guards, there was almost no one there. Could it be that the people downstairs can also testify?" Xia Zibing couldn't help but be a little confused. She remembered that there seemed to be a lot of people at that time, but she didn't look carefully at the front.
Those two men in the private room were as cocky as anything. Even if they didn't go against Xia Zibing, they wouldn't testify for that woman Rong Yue.
"Of course!" Mr. Rong looked at Xia Zibing seriously, with an angry look on his face, "The shopkeeper and the waiter also went up at that time."
"Oh, that's it." Xia Zibing suddenly realized, "It turned out to be the shopkeeper who was carried up by those bear-bag guards. Well! They are indeed witnesses."
Many people present burst into laughter, and Mr. Rong's face looked as if it was filled with charcoal.
"You..." Mr. Rong was furious, "You didn't bring me up, you asked me to come up."
"Hahaha..." Xia Zibing suddenly laughed without caring about her image, "Sir, you seemed to have said that we were still arguing about a room. Did you already know where the room was when we were arguing? There are so many downstairs.
The witnesses all saw that Chen Xue and I were already upstairs. Why did your daughter invite the shopkeeper up? By inviting the shopkeeper up at this time, do you want to use your own power to force the shopkeeper to let us check out? "
Master Rong's old face turned red suddenly, and he said in a flash, "Really? But as far as I know, more than a hundred people under the teahouse saw it with their own eyes. The room was obviously decided by Yue'er, you rely on it
I have a lot of martial arts skills, so if I snatched Yue'er's room, I wouldn't even hurt her. Now, I'm still uttering such arrogant words. I really don't know what to say!"
After these words, the hearts of those people slowly began to become neutral. They didn’t know which side to support!
"There were many people underground at that time. In order to prove that his daughter was indeed harmed by this woman, the island owner and Wei Chen not only invited the shopkeeper and the waiter, but also collected testimonials from the civilians downstairs!" Yan Luo, Jianye.
Yu didn't refute. He put his hands together, and in an instant, more than twenty people came up.
"You should remember these people, right?" Mr. Rong stared straight at Xia Zibing with his cunning eyes, a smile on his lips.
"I recognize it!"
Xia Zibing was noncommittal. She did feel that a few people were familiar to her when she passed by them. She did indeed glance at them a few times.
Master Rong, who was really full of words, immediately suppressed all his words. He didn't expect Xia Zibing to answer so neatly. He thought this woman was so smart, but he didn't expect that he was overthinking.
"Tell the truth about what you saw." There was a hint of threat in Mr. Rong's words that was difficult to detect.
Turning around, Master Rong and Xia Zibing's eyes met. However, Xia Zibing was as calm as water and extremely calm. At this time, Master Rong actually had a trace of unspeakable anger. He originally thought that Xia Zibing should have the least fear at this time.
right.
Undoubtedly, although her eyes were calm, they were very sharp. When she looked at the group of so-called witnesses, there were men and women. Almost all men, women, old and young. A man standing in front was twisting his hands with his hands crossed.
He lowered his head and said nothing for a long time. Xia Zibing could see that those people seemed unwilling to say certain words.
"Island Master, I saw that girl and that one..." His voice trembled slightly, but he pointed at Xia Zibing and Chen Xue without stopping, "The two walked up angrily, and not only beat them
Miss Rong Yue's bodyguard, later we heard Miss Rong Yue crying and screaming."
"Miss Rong Yue opened the room first, but then the girl forced herself to occupy the private room opened by Miss Rong Yue because the weather was too hot." Then a man continued.
"The civilian daughter also saw with her own eyes...the girl walked up to her forcefully and domineeringly. Later, she heard Miss Rong Yue's screams."
"The civilian girls also heard it. It was that girl who robbed Miss Rong Yue's room."
"The civilian girls also heard it..."
"Folk girl...
Although the faces of more than 20 people blushed for a moment, it was ultimately because of some interests and coercion, and the testimonies were consistent.
Those words were finally spoken. Xia Zibing couldn't help but feel ashamed. It was really a strong threat, and rich people can push everyone around. Damn, now she wished she could be more ruthless and kill Rong Yue directly. Let this person die
The old man suffered for three days and three nights. Only in this way could she relieve the hatred in her heart. Since having a child, her temperament has changed a lot. But this does not mean that she can be bullied casually.
At this moment, Mr. Rong was smiling without blushing. In the blink of an eye, the overall situation was decided, and Mr. Rong looked sharply at the two most important figures.
The shopkeeper and the waiter twitched violently. They saw that Xia Zibing was not someone to be trifled with. Standing at the door, they could clearly see that Xia Zibing broke Miss Rong Yue's fingers without any mercy. Moreover, the four
None of the guards could be fatal with one move. If he really committed perjury and could not convict Xia Zibing, or the island owner suddenly showed kindness and did not kill her, he would not be able to destroy his shop when this woman came out one day.
Burn him, chop him up and feed him to the dogs?
But Mr. Rong's eyes seemed to be more sinister than Xia Zibing's. Well, who said Mr. Rong was an important minister on the island? A royal family member and a powerful person? The two weighed for a long time whether to offend Xia Zibing or to offend Mr. Rong. It was better to think that offending Xia Zibing seemed to have a higher survival rate.
It should be higher. Because if they help Xia Zibing, the relationship between the island owner and Master Rong will be punished at most. But their life will definitely not be easy. And if they help Master Rong, Xia Zibing probably will not be punished too lightly.
"The owner of the island, the common people have seen it with their own eyes. This girl is overbearing and overbearing. She broke off Miss Rong Yue's bodyguards without resorting to any means. She also beat Miss Rong Yue's bodyguards. Her methods are so cruel that even the ordinary people can't stand it."
After saying this, the shopkeeper felt a chill in his back. But he will not regret it, because since he has helped this side, he will definitely kill the other side. He cannot let them have any chance to refute. Otherwise, he will really die without a burial place.
.
"So are the common people!" The waiter obeyed the boss's instructions obediently.
"..." Xia Zibing was speechless now. Damn it, she suddenly felt so isolated on the island.
"Island Master!" All the advantages have shifted at this moment, and people's hearts are gradually leaning towards the side of the Rong family. "Yue'er's injury is very serious. In order to seek justice for the little girl, Wei Chen specially brought the little girl over and asked the island to
Lord, please give justice to my Rong family. Don’t let this unruly and willful woman ruin the reputation of the island owner for the rest of his life.”
Xia Zibing was shocked. Damn it, let alone how many hours it would take to walk this distance. Is this man really going to put his own daughter's life and death in order to kill him? Xia Zibing was unmoved, but she wanted to
Look how powerful this Master Rong is. After all, she, Xia Zibing, has experienced so many storms in the Three Kingdoms, and she doesn't believe that she can't even handle this matter well.
Just as I was thinking about it, I saw a few men carrying a soft sedan slowly stopping. Then, the sedan door slowly opened. The maid supported a woman and walked out slowly. It was Rong Yue, and the woman was actually hanging a pair of
Why don't you just stay at home to recuperate? Did you come here just to capture her? Hehe, she was suddenly flattered. She originally thought that she could live a peaceful life for a few days on this island, but she didn't expect that no one would let her go.
She was having an easy life. Since these people thought so highly of her, she felt a little sorry for them if she didn't respond.
I saw that Rong Yue had already knelt down before she had even taken three steps out. Her pale face looked particularly haggard, and she no longer had the arrogance she had at noon. Her crying appearance was so pitiful that it was really shocking.
Pity.
Mr. Rong looked at his daughter with satisfaction, as she lived up to her mother's years of teachings. Indeed, what men can't stand the most is women's tears, and tears are also women's greatest protection. No one can withstand a woman's pitiful pleas.
"Cousin, Rong Yue has been taught by her mother since she was a child. She is always kind and kind. But she never expected to meet such a woman. Please make the decision for Rong Yue, cousin!"
That kind of sad and pitiful voice, like a warbler's cry, is something that even a normal man can't bear.
"Yue'er..." Ye Yu, who had been looking at the evidence calmly, finally spoke, and his first words contained a touch of concern.
"Cousin, Yue'er is very painful. I can never play the piano for my cousin again." She still kept crying, winning a man's dream with her tears and losing her heart and soul.
For the first time, Ye Yu's eyes changed from a hint of weakness to a look of three feet of frost like an eagle spreading its wings, "Someone, take this woman down."
This time, he didn't hesitate for a moment. Now that people's hearts are gradually turning towards the Rong family, this is the best chance to legitimately win over Xia Zibing.
"Bing..." Chen Xue was so frightened that she could no longer call out Xia Zibing's name. She lay in Yanfeng's arms not knowing what to do.
"The island owner feels sorry for this woman?" Xia Zibing pursed her red lips slightly, "Don't give her your heart and never get it back."
"Sure enough, it is what the people want, Master Rong!" Xia Zibing raised a sarcastic angle on her lips and turned her eyes to the island owner with disdain, "It turns out that the island owner is just a person who only listens to one-sided words. Not only that, he is also soft-eared.
A man who gets confused when a woman cries. It’s a pity for the people on this island. I don’t know how many people died in the hands of the Rong family. You can kill me, but you can’t kill the hearts of the islanders. Let me tell you, the owner of the island,
If you kill me, this island will be completely wiped out by the Rong family within three years. When the time comes, just hold your beauty to death."
Xia Zibing said as he dealt with the guards around him who came forward to arrest him.
Ye Yu has been the owner of the island for decades. This is the first time he has seen a woman who dares to scold him so boldly. I am afraid that there will never be another woman on the entire island. "If you don't believe me, it's up to you!"
"It's not because of me, but because of the way you do things. I'm very disappointed!"
Ye Yu looked at Rong Yue kneeling on the ground and couldn't help but ponder for a moment. Thinking that her cousin had been very obedient to him since she was a child, but she seemed to vaguely remember that once in the back garden, she saw with her own eyes a maid who was beaten for beating.
A vase was broken due to his presence at the time. Rong Yue generously forgave the girl, but later when he saw the maid again, she was lying on the street not far from Rong's mansion. Her body had no warmth.
One of the legs was bloody and somewhat rotten. He thought she was just a maid at the time and did not check carefully. Of course, he never thought of doubting Rong Yue. But Xia Zibing's words reminded her. Could it be that Rong Yue in his eyes was just an illusion?
"Island owner, don't listen to this woman's nonsense." Seeing that Ye Yu was wavering, he immediately reminded him, "This woman is actually not from our Liyuan Island, but from the outside world."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was surprised and discussed a lot.
The ancestral precept once said that outsiders are all invaders with bad character. If outsiders come to Liyuan Island, they should be handed over to the island owner. After hearing the fact that Xia Zibing came from the outside world, almost no one still stood
On Xia Zibing's side, and in the hearts of all the islanders, no one really treats outsiders as good people.
