While the two of them were talking to each other, they went to the Fuyun Building opposite to arrest someone.
So, after a while, Wang Rui was tied into a rice dumpling and thrown in front of Yan Mingzhu very roughly.
Wang Rui struggled to raise his head and shouted: "Let me go! You damn guys, how dare you attack me? Do you know who my aunt is?"
My aunt is the eldest daughter of the Pei family, my uncle is the Queen's biological brother, and I am the Queen's cousin. If you dare to hurt me, the Queen and His Royal Highness will definitely kill you!"
Zhuang Ke even laughed at what he said about his family background. He grabbed the hair on the back of his head and said, "How dare you compare your family background with me? Put your dog ears up and listen carefully.
I don’t want to change my surname, but I am Zhuang Ke, the legitimate son of Duke Zhuang. My sister is Concubine Zhuang, who is most favored by His Majesty. My nephew is Qi Jue, the invincible King of Dingbei in Dazhao. I
My eldest nephew can cause your Wang family to be destroyed in an instant with just a finger. Why don't you scream?"
As soon as Wang Rui heard Qi Jue's name, he didn't even dare to fart.
Looking at the entire imperial capital, who doesn't know that His Highness Dingbei Wang is ruthless in his methods? The most important official in the current dynasty, the Minister of the Ministry of Finance, killed him on the spot without any written orders.
Afterwards, Emperor Zhao did not hold anyone accountable. Instead, after seeing the evidence about Guo Xiang provided by Qi Jue, he immediately executed the entire Guo family.
After this incident, a saying spread in the imperial capital: Even if you offend the King of Hell, you cannot offend His Highness Dingbei King, otherwise you will not know how you will die!
Although Ming Zizhan usually dislikes Zhuang Ke, at this moment he feels that he has finally played some role. At least he has his nephew Qi Jue, King of Dingbei, who he is sure to be close to.
As long as Qi Jue's name is mentioned, the evil ghosts will be scared away.
"Miss Yan San, what are you going to do with this guy? Are you going to beat him to death with a stick?"
Wang Rui was so frightened when he heard that he was beaten to death with sticks, "Young Master, please spare my life! I know I was wrong, and I apologize. Miss Yan San can't help but it's all my fault. Please forgive me this time."
!
The teahouse...I will pay for everything broken in the teahouse. One hundred taels, is one hundred taels enough? If not, I, I...I will ask the people in the house to send more money..."
Yan Mingzhu said lightly: "I gave you a chance yesterday, but it's a pity that you didn't cherish it. I hate wasting time on stupid people, especially since you are a close relative of the Pei family, so you deserve to die."
As soon as he finished speaking, there were footsteps outside.
A group of officers walked in, "Who dares to gather a crowd to cause trouble in broad daylight?"
It turned out that Liu Xiang had just followed Yan Mingzhu's order and went directly to Jingzhao Mansion to report to the official while no one else was paying attention.
Zhuang Ke raised his chin and said: "This guy named Wang Rui is the leader. Arrest him and put him in a prison. He will interrogate him rigorously. If the interrogation does not reveal the reason, I will let my nephew Ding Beiwang, His Highness."
I’ll go and talk to you personally.”
The leading officer recognized Zhuang Ke's identity, and when he heard him mention Qi Jue's name, he dared not be negligent, "Don't worry, young master, I will definitely judge these troublemakers severely, especially the leader!"
When Wang Rui was being taken away, he was still shouting: "I...my aunt is the eldest daughter of the Pei family, and the queen is my cousin. You can't touch me..."
Unfortunately, no one paid any attention to him. He was tied up, his mouth was gagged and he was dragged away.
Yan Mingzhu pointed at one of the beggars and said, "How about I give you a chance to make up for your mistakes. If you do well, you can avoid going to jail."
How dare the beggar refuse to agree? He nodded repeatedly, "I will go through fire and water for the girl!"
"Go to the Wang family to publicize what happened today, and tell the Wang family that if they want to redeem Wang Rui, they should bring five hundred taels of silver to Ming Yuexuan to make amends. Otherwise, there is no guarantee that Wang Rui can go back intact.
At least some of them must be missing arms and legs."
The beggar took his life and ran away as fast as he could.
Mingyu came over and asked a little strangely: "Zhuzhu, why did you ask him to tell the Wang family? The Wang family just relies on being the brother-in-law of the Pei family and claims to be a wealthy family, but in fact they have no ability."
Yan Mingzhu explained patiently: "The Wang family naturally has no ability to redeem people, but they can't just watch their son die in Jingzhao Mansion.
Therefore, they will inevitably go to the Pei family for help. The Pei family is very wealthy, and a mere five hundred taels is not a difficult thing for them. Not only can I get an apology of five hundred taels, but I can also watch the Pei family come to me to apologize and admit their mistakes.
You only make a profit on a transaction and don’t lose any money.”
She just wanted to make the Pei family lose face. Didn't the Pei family pride themselves on being superior to others? They didn't treat the original owner of her body as a human being and abused her. This debt must now be settled slowly!
Mingyu suddenly realized, "Zhuzhu, you did the right thing, you should let the Pei family suffer. They deserve to be so arrogant!"
After finishing Wang Rui's matter, Mingzi glanced at Zhuang Ke, who still refused to leave, "Aren't you going to Fuyun Tower to listen to a book? What are you doing here, being a doorkeeper?"
Zhuang Ke sat down on the chair and said, "What's the point of the story telling in Fuyun Tower? I'm tired of hearing it. I want to hear a new story today. Shopkeeper, here are twenty taels. Today's show
, I’ve got it covered!”
With that said, Zhuang Ke crossed Erlang's legs and hooked his hand towards the follower Young Master, "Go, call all those young men over and tell them that I will invite them to have tea and listen to books, so that they can all come together within a quarter of an hour.
Come here like crazy!"
The young master said yes again and again and ran out quickly to call someone.
Mingyu smiled and said: "This Young Master Zhuang usually looks like a fool, but at the critical moment he is very thoughtful and knows how to call more people to save your face, Zhuzhu."
Before Yan Mingzhu could answer, Zhuang Ke answered naturally: "That's right, I and Miss Yan are both our own people, and this is what I should do!"
Isn't my future niece-in-law one of my own? Zhuang Ke naturally thought happily.
But when Ming Zizhan heard these words, it became clear that he had something different in mind for Yan Mingzhu.
Ming Zizhan stared at him coldly, "Zhuang Ke, Miss Yan San is a serious girl, not someone you can mess with casually. I'm warning you, don't set your sights on her, or I'll knock out your front teeth!"
Zhuang Ke curled his lips disdainfully, "What qualifications do you have to drag me with me? If I can take care of Miss Yan San's business, I am qualified to hang around in front of her. What can you do for her? A useless snack, bah
.”
Ming Zizhan suddenly hardened his fist.
When the atmosphere suddenly became tense, Yan Mingzhu took a piece of snack in one hand and handed it to the two of them.
"Try the new snacks. After eating the snacks, listen to the book. Whoever disobeys will have to go out."
Ming Zizhan and Zhuang Ke immediately took the snacks and glared at each other while eating the snacks, but they were obedient and stopped arguing.
