Chapter 224;

Officials come to visit

"How dare you lie."

Ah Xi didn't believe it at all, so she raised her hand and hit her again. The little maid could no longer hold back her tears, and her red and swollen face was full of fear.

I no longer dare to defend myself, for fear that if I continue to speak, I will really be beaten to death.

"Okay, you go out and take a look."

Han Yu sat down again with a gloomy face.

Hearing this, Ah Xi pushed the little maid to the side and threatened, "If you let me know that you are talking nonsense, watch how I deal with you."

The little maid who fell to the ground didn't dare to cry out in pain, she shrank up and was so frightened.

As soon as Ah Xi left the room, before even walking out of the courtyard, a lot of people came to meet her.

The leader was the steward, followed by several officials.

"Stop, who are you? How dare you break into the Dong family's house without permission."

Ah Xi suddenly scolded him, unaware that his end was coming.

"presumptuous."

The leading officer gave a cold shout.

The steward of the Dong Mansion hurriedly stepped forward and said with a stern face, "Axi, please step aside. These adults are performing official duties."

"Performing official duties? This is the inner house of the Dong family. It is full of female relatives. If you lead an outsider into the inner house, will you risk your life?"

Ah Xi is not from the Dong family, she is Han Yu's personal maid. When Han Yu married into the Dong family, she came as a dowry.

It can be said that in this Dong Mansion, apart from the respect she showed to the master, the old woman, and her own young lady and uncle, other people really didn't get much respect from her.

Even the housekeeper in front of me was no exception, because she took the monthly report given by Han Yu.

"you"

The housekeeper was furious and glared at Ah Xi fiercely.

I cursed in my heart that this idiot was really in trouble and didn't realize it.

"Go back where you came from. If you dare to break into this inner house, be careful of your life."

Ah Xi turned his eyes again and stared at the officials threateningly.

"Okay, you poor maid who doesn't know how to live or die."

The head officer's face darkened, and then he turned to the housekeeper with a sneer and asked, "I heard you call her Axi just now, but is she the person we want to arrest?"

"yes"

The butler just nodded.

The head officer waved his hand.

"Take it. If you dare to resist, you will be killed on the spot."

"How dare you"

Ah Xi, who had been so arrogant just now, saw two official servants approaching, a look of panic appeared on his face, and he backed away continuously.

"You despise the imperial power and openly obstruct official duties. You are really courageous."

Facing the arrest of the two-faced official, Ah Xi had no choice.

"presumptuous."

"stop."

Two female voices sounded, one after the other.

The first person to come out was Han Yu. At this time, she had a gloomy face and stared coldly at the door of the courtyard.

Coming over from the other side was Dong Shuqing's mother, Luo Shi, who was born in the Luo family in Guanbei.

"Let Ah Xi go and get out of Dong's Mansion, or you will bear the consequences."

Han Yu ordered coldly.

However, the head official just smiled coldly and said, "This lady is so powerful. Do you know why I came to Dong's Mansion today?"

"Madam, no matter why you came here, get out now. This is your last warning."

"Hahaha."

Several officers all laughed, looking at him as if he were a fool.

They all know the origin of the Dong Mansion, and if they dare to come and arrest people like this, it is an order issued by the person at the top, and now someone actually dares to warn them.

Tsk tsk

"Madam, you are so brave!"

The official officer gave Han Yu a thumbs up and continued, "Have you thought about it?"

"If we leave, the next people who come will be the Forbidden Army, and the Dong family will be afraid of that."

Hearing this, Han Yu smiled coldly. She didn't believe what the other party said at all.

Just when he was about to retaliate, Luo Shi finally came closer, and happened to hear the official say that the people coming next time might be the Imperial Guards, and his expression suddenly changed.

It is no small matter to be able to dispatch the Imperial Army on both sides.

"Ayu, step back."

"I met my mother-in-law."

Han Yu ignored the scolding and quickly turned around to salute Luo Shi.

"My lord, my daughter-in-law has had many conflicts just now, and I am here to make amends for her."

After she finished speaking, a nun who came with her quickly stepped forward and presented her purse.

"It's such a hot day that I bother you all to make a trip. I'm sorry, but I'd like to treat you to some tea."

The leading official did not collect the purse, but politely bowed his hand to Luo Shi and said, "I appreciate the old lady's kindness."

Seeing that the other party refused to accept it, Luo Shi signaled without forcing it, and the nanny quickly retreated.

"You come here and don't know why?"

The officer immediately explained in detail what he was doing here and why he was here.

When he figured out what had happened, Luo Shi's face looked extremely ugly.

She turned around, raised her hand, and slapped her daughter-in-law Han Yu on the face.

"You bastard, who gave you the courage to yell at Wanfu County Lord?"

Han Yu was stunned by this slap.

She has been married into the Dong family for three years, and the whole family is harmonious and has little time for quarrels and quarrels. After all, she is the legitimate daughter of the Han family, and her status is there.

As long as she doesn't go too far, she won't be punished by her mother-in-law.

After all, she had to worry about the Han family's face, but now her mother-in-law, who had always been kind, actually slapped her in front of outsiders.

This made her very aggrieved, but facing her mother-in-law, she really didn't dare to do anything and could only cover her face and cry.

But I hated Lu Yaoyao in my heart. All of this was because of her.

Luo Shi glared at her fiercely again, then turned around and stared at Ah Xi ten times more fiercely.

"And you, this cheap servant, can you call the Lord Wanfu County by his first name?"

"The young lady asked you to invite the Lord Wanfu County, but you, a cheap servant, actually obeyed the request and went to someone else's door to pick up the master's money."

"I didn't know that I, the Dong family, have you as my master."

Facing the gaze of old lady Luo Shi, Ahina was still a little arrogant.

Even the young lady was beaten.

He saw her kneeling down and kowtowing to Luo Shi.

"Excuse me, madam. Ah Xi was wrong."

"Come here, drag this dog slave down and kill him with a cane."

Upon hearing that the old lady was going to kill her with a stick, Ah Xi turned pale with fright, and kowtowed crazily to beg for mercy.

However, the people brought by the old lady stepped forward and dragged Ah Xi away after receiving the order.

Seeing that begging the old lady was useless, Ah Xi's eyes immediately turned to his young lady Han Yu.

"Miss, help me, miss, please help me."

Hearing his closest maid asking for help, Han Yu was about to open his mouth to plead, but was frightened back by Luo Shi's cold eyes.

Ah Xi was desperate after seeing this scene.

"Old madam, I'm afraid this won't work. The higher-ups have told us that this person will be taken to Shuntian Mansion."

Those words of the old lady just now were heard by all the officials. The sentence given to Ah Xi was to deceive the superiors and hide the truth from the subordinates, and to violate the law in secret and covertly. This is a typical thing to abandon the soldiers to save the carriage.

However, if it were normal times, he would be happy to give this face, but it was different today. His Majesty's Eunuch Wang De personally came to deliver the order.

If Luo Che were to handle it this way, they would be the unlucky ones.
