Yingzi said quickly: "I don't care about Sister Ji Lan, it's because I was careless..." Her eyes were glistening with water, and she was terrified and helpless. She lowered her head as she spoke, as if she was afraid that things would get worse and end badly. , if others saw it, they would definitely think that she had suffered some great grievance and did not dare to say it openly.
Han Yan sneered silently in her heart. Zhuang Hanming didn't see it, but he could see clearly that Yingzi pinched Ji Lan, and Ji Lan poured the tea all over her body in pain. Such a clumsy technique can only be used by a child like Zhuang Hanming.
"Brother Ming." Han Yan spoke slowly and calmly: "I haven't figured out anything yet. Why are you sending others out of the house?"
Ji Lan also realized at this time that she had always been fierce and would not let go of being framed like this. She immediately shouted loudly: "She pinched me and my tea was poured."
"Nonsense!" Zhuang Hanming was furious: "How could Yingzi pinch you for no reason? Could it be that she intentionally hurt herself?"
"Whether it's pinching or not, Brother Ming, you'll know just by looking at Ji Lan's hands." Han Yan's body was still a little weak, but he didn't stand up, but his eyes were as cold as ice and his tone was as cold as iron.
"Yes!" When Han Yan mentioned it, Ji Lan quickly stretched out his left hand, and there was a red blood mark from a fingernail on the back of his hand, which was sudden and dazzling.
"It's not me, it's really not me..." Yingzi burst into tears and knelt down on the ground to kowtow to Han Yan: "Miss, it's really not me. I didn't do such a thing."
Zhuang Hanming was surprised and said: "This girl is obviously the one who is putting the blame on Yingzi. How difficult is it to put the blame on Yingzi? Just pinch yourself and you can do it!"
Becoming smarter, Han Yan stared at his unfamiliar brother, as if overnight, the distance between him and his brother had become separated by thousands of mountains and rivers. She spoke slowly: "So, you don't believe Ji Lan's words?"
The last time Zhuang Hanming and Han Yan quarreled, Ji Lan was not present, did not know about it, and had never met Yingzi. This time, seeing Zhuang Hanming not trusting Han Yan and himself because of a strange girl, he felt angry and aggrieved. He even forgot that he was still injured and rushed towards Yingzi: "You are a liar! I clearly didn't mean it. Splashing water on you, what is your intention?" She is petite but smart, and she has some brute strength on weekdays. Yingzi was pounced by her and fell to the ground immediately. Han Yan had no time to stop him, Ji Lan also To make a move, Zhuang Hanming stepped forward and kicked. The man's leg strength was already stronger than that of the woman. Poor Ji Lan was scarred yesterday. Today, he was kicked by Zhuang Hanming and flew a foot away, spitting out a mouthful of blood. .
Before Zhuang Hanming stopped, he was struck by a windy palm. Seeing this, Shu Hong, who had been silent all this time, pushed Ji Lan away. She received Zhuang Hanming's palm from behind and fell to the ground.
All this happened so fast that Han Yan had no time to stop him. Seeing that both Ji Lan and Shuhong were seriously injured by Zhuang Hanming, he felt a sweetness in his throat and a faint trace of blood pouring out of his mouth.
Seeing that the situation was getting more and more serious, Zhuang Hanming had no intention of stopping. At the critical moment, a man appeared from the sky and exchanged palms with Zhuang Hanming. Zhuang Hanming was unexpectedly caught by that blow. He took a few steps back, barely regained his footing, and looked up. The man was lifting Shu Hong up from the ground, dressed as a bodyguard. Han Yan breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that Mu Yan was here. After the servants in this house were sent away by Han Yan, if Zhuang Hanming really took action today, no one would stop him.
"Who are you?" Zhuang Hanming was shocked and confused, but he saw the man bending down towards Han Yan and giving him a fist: "Princess, my subordinate is late."
Zhuang Hanming's eyes changed: "You are a servant of the house? How dare you do this to me?"
"Zhuang Hanming." It was Han Yan who spoke and slowly stood up.
Zhuang Hanming was stunned and turned to look at Han Yan. Han Yan was always kind to him and rarely looked so serious. Today, her eyes were cold and she didn't feel angry when she saw that she was not angry. But for some reason, Zhuang Hanming actually felt a... Feeling guilty for no reason. He knew that Ji Lan and Shu Hong were Han Yan's personal maids, and they were also Han Yan's sweethearts. But that girl is really bold and arrogant.
"It turns out that you didn't come here today to visit me." Han Yan lowered his eyes and said in a calm tone: "It's just to raise an army to punish me."
Zhuang Hanming was shocked, she knew it all! Indeed, what happened in Jilan today was no accident. Since he brought Yingzi back, Yingzi was not as happy as he imagined. Instead, he often hid in the dark and cried. He had doubts in his heart, so he called Yingzi for questioning. At first, Yingzi refused to tell, but later he found out Zhuang Hanming threatened to drive her out of the house if she didn't tell the truth, and Yingzi finally told the whole story. It turned out that the maids in the house often gathered together to gossip about her behind her back, saying that she was flirtatious to the owner of the goods, which even caused discord between the two Han Yan siblings. He sent someone to find out who was the rumor monger, and found out who it was. The result is Jilan. In his heart, he desperately wanted to punish her, but Ji Lan was Han Yan's personal maid, so he couldn't say it directly. Today when he entered Prince Xuanqing's palace, Ji Lan actually did evil to Yingzi again, and even wanted to blame Yingzi. He finally couldn't bear it anymore and took action.
Publicly or privately, he would treat Ji Lan like this sooner or later, but he didn't expect Han Yan to see it.
Zhuang Hanming looked a little embarrassed: "Sister, this maid doesn't take you seriously at all. She is so bold and bullies others. Now I am punishing her for you, which is understandable."
Han Yan looked at him with a dull face and said nothing. She just picked up the teapot on the stone table and poured herself a cup of tea: "Bullying others with strength?" She chuckled, and looked at Zhuang Hanming mockingly: "She can bully me. Why didn’t you say that I was the one bullying others?”
Zhuang Hanming only felt that Han Yan's words contained infinite profound meaning, and he had some scruples in his heart, but he also felt unfair for Yingzi, so he said angrily: "Sister, you have to protect your maid, and I have to protect mine. "
"Ji Lan has been with me for more than ten years." Counting the last life, it was actually twenty years. "How long has your maid been with you?" Han Yan said.
Zhuang Hanming felt a little uncomfortable when he heard what Han Yan said. For some reason, Han Yan always doubted Yingzi. He knew that Han Yan himself had been guarding the Zhou sisters and Aunt Mei all day long in the Zhuang Mansion, and he had become deeply scheming. , but she never thought that one day, she would doubt the people around her. Yingzi is just a miserable person. Why does Hanyan always push each other so hard
Thinking of this, Zhuang Hanming was determined to protect Yingzi to the end: "I believe her!"
Han Yan stood up straight, and Yingzi was curled up on the ground, sobbing non-stop, looking really pitiful. Han Yan smiled slightly: "Since you believe that Ji Lan hurt her and I hurt her, how can you refute your opinion?" After saying that, he raised his hand and poured a cup of scalding tea on Yingzi's head. He screamed and immediately covered his face and screamed.
