Wen Yao instantly felt confident. If she hadn't been caught, there would be no evidence. If you came to her house and smashed it up, she would ask Jiang Xiahou to explain the matter.
Xu Yang was stunned for a moment, then became furious: "You don't admit it!"
"What Prince Xu said was not done by my family, so why should I admit it? There is no such thing as a bully. Jingzhao Mansion, Dali Temple, and the Imperial Palace, I, Wen Yao, will accompany you to the end."
Xu Yang disagreed: "Dali Temple? Imperial Palace? Who do you Wen family think you are? Can a humble businessman like you enter the Imperial Palace?"
Wen Yao: "It's state-owned and national law. I still don't believe that such a big court can't be unreasonable. You are no more than a marquis in Jiangxia. Don't talk so eloquently. It hurts to slap someone in the face. No one can stand up for you!"
The masters of the Wen family naturally received the news, but they hid in the inner house and did not dare to show up. They waited for Wen Yao to take control of the situation before they dared to secretly hide outside the yard to watch the excitement.
Wen Yu was not at home. He was busy with things in the shop. Only then did he realize how hard it was for his eldest sister to take over the family business. There were endless things to deal with, endless accounts, and he had to guard against the calculations of his competitors.
At the end of the day, my brain turned to mush.
The concierge sent someone to invite him back. As soon as he walked in, he saw the confrontation between Wen Yao and Xu Yang, and the messy yard, and his face became gloomy.
"Sister, who is he?"
"The Crown Prince of Jiangxia, who slandered our family, threw excrement all over his sister. Although Miss Xu's mouth does have a stinky mouth, we also made a stink by throwing excrement on her. At this time, we will kill one thousand enemies and lose eight."
The thing is, no one in our family is that stupid.
Prince Xu, you should reflect on how many enemies you have, you are so hated!"
Wen Yao was gloating about the misfortune, but thinking about it made her feel sick again, and she covered her mouth and retched a little.
Wen Yu said angrily: "Then he can't destroy our house, it's too arrogant."
"Where is the Marquis? How can people be afraid of a businessman like us? I have reported it to the government and asked people to count the losses. The expenses for the servants' injuries, medical expenses, mental losses, and the reputation damage expenses of my Wen family. I believe that the dignified Marquis Mansion will not ignore it.
Is it a debt?"
Wen Yu understood that the eldest sister was trying to blackmail his family, but how could the Wen family defeat the Hou Mansion?
Officials protect each other, but without the support of the government, merchants like them will only be bullied by the powerful.
Wen Yao was confident and ordered the housekeeper: "Take my post and invite the eldest lady of Prince Jing's palace. I will invite her to tea."
The housekeeper was overjoyed. If he could invite the eldest lady of Prince Jing's residence, a mere prince's residence would be nothing.
Xu Yang's pupils dilated and he said subconsciously: "Miss Wen, please stop scaring me. How noble is Prince Jing's family to be friends with a merchant's daughter like you?"
"Do you think everyone is like you, bullying the weak and fearing the strong, climbing up the ranks and attaching importance to the noble, and the villain gets his way? Do you need to tell you whether Miss Yuan and I are friends? Prince Xu should think about how to compensate my family for its losses."
While they were talking, people from the Jingzhao Mansion came in. Four or five officers saw the Wen family in a mess, and their eyebrows trembled: "Who did this?"
Xu Yang has lost the arrogance he had before. If the Wen family had the backing of Prince Jing's Mansion, things today would probably be difficult to resolve.
Wen Yu came forward and accused Xu Yang of his bad behavior. The evidence was conclusive, and he had no witnesses. It was a certainty.
Just hearing that the Xu family was the Marquis of Jiangxia, the officer was a little embarrassed, "Is there any misunderstanding? How could the prince smash up your house for no reason? There are so many people who don't go, but they come to your house. You have to reflect on yourself.
There must be something wrong with you."
Wen Yao laughed angrily: "I heard what you said, Master Xu. Prince Xu smashed my house. Do I still have to apologize and reflect on myself? Isn't it true that the laws of the imperial court are to protect the powerful and confuse right and wrong?"
The officer yelled: "You are a female, how can you speak? The prince has already said that it was someone from your family who bullied Miss Xu first."
"Where are the people? Who is in my family? I want to catch thieves and dirty people. I also said that Miss Xu fell into the cesspool by herself and slandered our family."
"You..., I don't talk nonsense to women. If you don't accept it, go to the lobby and wait for the governor's judgment. But I can warn you, if the people sue the officials, if the accusation is false, at least they will be exiled. Who will go to your family?"
"
Wen Yu said: "I'll go, eldest sister, you stay at home and I'll go to court with them."
Nuan Nuan came out with a hypocritical look on his face: "Brother, what would you do if you went home? What would you do in the shop? You are the head of the family and you cannot take risks with your life.
Why don't you let eldest sister do it? She is so capable. Such a trivial matter must not be difficult for eldest sister, right?"
Wen Yu hesitated, "The eldest sister is a woman, how can she go to court? No, it will bring bad reputation to the eldest sister."
Wen Nuan said: "Hey, can the eldest sister be the same as an ordinary woman? The eldest sister has the final say in everything we do inside and outside. It's just going to court. The eldest sister won't care."
Wen Yu looked at Wen Yao, waiting for her to make up her mind. In fact, he didn't have the confidence to go to court.
Wen Yao waited for them to finish singing in harmony. Although Wen Yu considered himself, he did not persist and could not hide his disappointment.
The officer became impatient: "Who is going? Is there anyone who can make the decision?"
Just when Wen Yao was about to speak, there was the sound of horse hooves, and then the sound of boots hitting the ground. The steps were sonorous and powerful. Just by hearing the footsteps, you knew that the master was a decisive and decisive master.
"Where are you going? Tell me clearly."
It’s Yuanhua!
Carrying a riding crop, she came faster than Wen Yao thought. Her eyes swept over Xu Yang. The disdainful look in her eyes made Xu Yang lower his head, bend down and salute: "I have met Miss Yuan."
"Who are you? Are you bullying my sister?"
"Misunderstandings are all misunderstandings."
"What's the misunderstanding? Are you from Jingzhao Mansion? Are you going to court? Come on, I'll go and watch the excitement."
The officer nodded and begged for mercy: "How dare you trouble Miss Yuan? It's just a misunderstanding. It's just a misunderstanding."
Wen Yao said: "Isn't it a misunderstanding? Prince Xu smashed my house, and I have to reflect on my fault. It's because the door of my house is too ugly, and it bothers Prince Xu. I have to thank him for smashing it, right?
Ah, sir?"
Wen Yao is not a master who swallows his anger. With such bully and fearful officers, many people are bullied and have no way to complain.
As soon as Yuan Hua glared, he swung the whip on them. Several of the officers who were beaten screamed and did not dare to hide. They knelt down and begged for mercy: "Miss Wen, we were wrong. Please be merciful. We don't dare to do it anymore."
Already."
Xu Yang watched Yuanhua slap someone whenever he disagreed, and secretly hid behind him. Although he was a prince, he dared to hit this aunt and the prince, so who was the prince?
