The forty-year-old man's face dropped.
He snorted coldly and said to Bingwen: "I don't know who you are, but your tone is arrogant and cruel."
"We are acting under orders and are here to fetch someone. Who are you to dare to interfere with Dali Temple's errands?" Bingwen spoke in an official tone, even Kong Changhui beside him was stunned for a moment.
"I am the housekeeper of this mansion, Yue Xinguang. Why don't you two adults go to the front hall to have a cup of tea, and I'll ask the third aunt to come out and see if there is any misunderstanding?" Yue Xinguang softened his tone when he heard that he was acting under orders.
Since I have been ordered, a case must be filed. It is better not to make the matter too serious.
"Then go and ask the third aunt to come out." Bingwen was not in a hurry.
Anyway, the decision was made today. Didn't Yue Xinguang just want to wait for Zhuo Xiande to come back
He gave this time.
Yue Xinguang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Bingwen did not assign officers and soldiers to search forcibly. He squeezed out a smile and said, "Two adults, please come this way."
Yue Xinguang led the two of them to the front hall to sit down and ordered the maid to serve tea.
He resigned and went to the backyard to find his third concubine to ask what was going on.
When Yao Meizhen heard that Dali Temple had sent officers and soldiers to arrest her, her face had long been as pale as paper, and her beautiful face lost all color in an instant.
She retreated to the bed, hugged her legs with her hands, shook her head and murmured: "I won't go, I won't go."
Seeing this, Yue Xinguang could only ask warmly from the side: "Then third aunt, you have to tell this servant why they came here this time, right?"
"I don't know, I don't know, don't ask me, I don't know anything." Yao Meizhen covered her ears, her mood obviously getting more excited.
"Third Aunt, if you act like this, I don't know what to say to them." Yue Xinguang was also furious. Looking at Third Aunt's appearance, he knew without asking that he must have done something wrong.
But Yao Meizhen didn't speak anymore at this moment, she just covered her ears and her body was shaking violently.
Suddenly, she looked up at Yue Xinguang, grabbed a pillow from the couch and threw it over.
"Get out, all of you, get out. I won't see anyone except the master." Yao Meizhen said fiercely.
Everyone was forced to retreat.
Seeing that they were all gone, Yao Meizhen leaned weakly on the bed.
It was clear that it was a clear day and the world was bright, but she felt that her whole body was covered with Huo Tianyang's eyes, staring at her with blood and resentment from the corners of his eyes.
Even though she closed her eyes and held her head in her hands.
Huo Tianyang's scream that night, and his face of disbelief before he died.
The scenes still echoed in her mind and could not be erased.
Five years have passed since this incident, why should she still think of it...
Although Yue Xinguang outside the door was anxious, he was helpless.
I could only grit my teeth and go to the front hall to buy some time.
When Yue Xinguang went to the front hall, Bingwen and Kong Changhui were drinking tea and talking about home affairs calmly, as if they were not here to arrest anyone, but rather as guests.
"Two adults, our third aunt is too unwell. Can you please be accommodating?" Yue Xinguang said as he handed over two ingots of silver.
Bingwen looked at the two ingots of silver he held in his hands, a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he raised his hand to take them.
Kong Changhui's expression changed.
Yue Xinguang's complexion turned rosy instantly, and his face was full of smiles.
He just said, there is nothing that money cannot accommodate.
Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, Bingwen's words suddenly came to his ears.
"Come here, take down Yue Xinguang first."
Upon hearing this, the officers and soldiers outside rushed in and neatly picked up Yue Xinguang.
"What are you doing?" Yue Xinguang was shocked and said angrily to Bingwen.
Seeing Bingwen smiling and saying nothing, Yue Xinguang shouted outside again: "Come here, kick all these people out."
The servants outside immediately surrounded him.
Bingwen sneered and said: "Yue Xinguang intended to bribe. The bribe money is still in my hand, and Mr. Kong also saw it with his own eyes. If you dare to come up, you are breaking the law. Can you bear the responsibility of hindering the handling of the case in Dali Temple?"
The servants were frightened and intimidated by his words, which meant retreating steadily.
Yue Xinguang rolled his eyes angrily and said harsh words to Bingwen: "If you have the ability, you will wait for our master to come back. I won't spare you!"
Bingwen walked up to Yue Xinguang with his hands behind his back, smiled cleanly and harmlessly, and said softly to him: "You have to stand still, I am waiting here, widen your dog eyes, look at Let’s see who can’t get around who.”
Yue Xinguang was so frightened by his awe-inspiring aura that he leaned back unconsciously.
Who is this person from, and why does he sound so arrogant
My master is also a popular person in the palace. None of the dignitaries would smile and call him Zhuo Yuanshi when they see him. Why does this man in front of him have such a right
Bingwen, who frightened Yue Xinguang, turned around casually after speaking to him.
The hems of their clothes undulated in the wind, and the servants of the Zhuo Mansion could not help but hold their breath.
Such a handsome young man, but just now he used the gentlest tone and said the harshest words.
"You, go get us two cups of hot tea." Bingwen pointed to the crowd outside the door.
The boy who was pointed out said "yes" and went down.
He didn't react until he was halfway through, muttering to himself, why should I listen to him
Although he reacted, he didn't stop and walked quickly to make tea.
When Kong Changhui saw Bingwen sitting down, he leaned forward and asked softly: "Where did you learn this official authority?"
"Who told you to be so useless and unable to control the situation?" Bingwen rolled his eyes at him.
Kong Changhui was embarrassed by him and looked a little embarrassed, so he changed the subject and asked, "Are we really waiting here for the return of Ambassador Zhuo Yuan?"
Before Kong Changhui finished speaking, he heard a male voice coming from outside.
"But Mr. Hu is here in person?"
When Kong Changhui saw that the rightful owner was back, he looked at Bingwen.
Bingwen gently tilted his head in the direction of Zhuo Xiande and gestured "up" to Kong Changhui.
Kong Changhui was forced to cough and said firmly, "I am here to apprehend the guilty woman Yao Meizhen on the orders of Mr. Hu, the Minister of Dali Temple."
Bingwen sneered in his heart. The knowledgeable people had clearly told him that Hu Yingmao was not here, and Zhuo Xiande deliberately asked this just to remind them to consider their identities.
Zhuo Xiande snorted coldly and scolded Kong Changhui: "Even Lord Hu has never come here, how dare you arrest the third concubine in my house?"
Bingwen smiled and said warmly: "How dare we come to your house to arrest the third concubine?"
Zhuo Xiande's face softened a little, and he turned away from the two of them and said disdainfully: "I'm sorry you don't..."
Bingwen instantly suppressed the smile on his face, turned cold, and looked at Zhuo Xiande with an imposing manner.
"We have to arrest you too!"
