Han Qiancheng was stunned and asked suspiciously: "What do you mean?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a sound of shouting coming from outside, shouting: "Let Mr. Qianji come to see us."
The sound was very loud, and it sounded like there were many people.
Han Qiancheng frowned. He stood up and opened the door. He saw the guard running over and said in a panic: "Sir, there are many people outside who want to see you. Our people can hardly stop them."
Han Qiancheng asked: "What happened?"
The guard looked confused, how could he know what was going on?
Feng Changling said: "When I came here, I heard some rumors, saying that Mr. Han, for the sake of Beau Beauty, was cooperating with the imperial court to wipe out Qingfeng Village.
They are afraid that they have believed the rumors and are looking for an explanation from you, Master."
Han Qiancheng was stunned for a moment and was obviously very surprised. How could such a rumor spread among such a good person?
He looked at Feng Changling's scrutinizing eyes with a hint of suspicion.
Feng Changling noticed his suspicion and asked with a smile: "You don't think I did it, do you?"
He shrugged and said, "You will know if it was my idea if you listen to their requests."
After saying that, the Bamboo Garden had been breached, and the brothers from Qingfeng Village broke in and surrounded the yard.
Han Qiancheng's face darkened. He closed the door and stood under the eaves. He looked at the crowded group of people and said sternly: "What do you want to do? Are there any rules anymore?"
The leading man first bowed his hands to Han Qiancheng politely and said: "Young master, please forgive me, but our brothers have heard some rumors and are really a little uneasy. Please give us an explanation."
Han Qiancheng asked: "What do you want to explain?"
The man said: "May I ask what the relationship between the young master and Princess Qinghe is? There are rumors in the village that she is the young master's sweetheart, but is it true?"
Han Qiancheng scolded: "That's nonsense. Who is spreading rumors? I admit that I treated Princess Qinghe a little more favorably, but the village master has explained to you before that Princess Qinghe has saved my life, so I will keep her."
This is just to repay the favor."
"Is it to repay a favor, or to hide your love in a golden house? This morning the regent threatened your mother's life to let you go, but you remained unmoved.
You are a son but you don't care about your mother's safety. Are you so cold-blooded and ruthless that you can even abandon your biological mother? Or do you already know that your mother will not be in any danger?
Could it be that you and the Prince Regent jointly staged today’s threatening drama to show us?”
This man was eloquent and had well-founded suspicions about the truth of the matter.
Han Qiancheng was furious: "My mother died a year ago. The regent is obviously trying to make things up. If I believe him, I will harm Qingfeng Village."
However, his words were not convincing, and some people continued to question: "If you hadn't colluded with the imperial court to kill us, how could Princess Qinghe protect you wholeheartedly? Is she devoted to you? Could it be that she wanted to kill her family for justice?
"
Han Qiancheng said with a gloomy face: "This is clearly someone who is instigating you and wants to trap me into injustice.
You must not fall into the trap, we should work together at this time, everything I do is for Qingfeng Village, I want you to honor your ancestors and enjoy endless glory and wealth."
"It's okay to want us to believe you. As long as you kill Princess Qinghe, we will believe your sincerity towards Qingfeng Village."
"Yes, kill Princess Qinghe."
"Kill Princess Qinghe!"
"..."
The shouts were so loud that every bandit in Qingfeng Village was extremely excited. They were bound to let Han Qiancheng personally kill Princess Qinghe to prove his innocence.
