At this time, the Xiao family's mansion was enveloped in even lower pressure.
General Xiao's anger almost spread throughout the mansion: "Look at the good things you have done! How many times have I told you that Yun Zishu just got married and you coaxed her and followed her. What did you do?! I
You've just been away from home for two days and you made such a joke? The Xiao family has been completely embarrassed by you!"
Mrs. Xiao's face was pale. Looking at her son's scarred appearance, she stood in front of the bed and wiped away tears.
"Cry, cry, cry, you still know how to cry! If you hadn't been pampering Li Xue unscrupulously, how could you have caused such a ridiculous thing today?" Xiao Yuanting's face was livid and angry. The majesty developed by being immersed in the military camp for many years is really difficult for ordinary people.
He endured the intense pain and said, "It's okay now. Li Xue was taken to the Shadow Pavilion and Yun Heng was beaten like this. Are you happy? Satisfied?"
"How could I have expected that things would develop into such a situation?" Mrs. Xiao cried bitterly, and then gnashed her teeth and cursed angrily, "That little bitch has always been tolerant before, but who knows what evil got into her this time, and she insisted on divorcing her husband.
?She really thought the Xiao family wanted to marry her——"
"Shut up!" Xiao Yuanting was so angry that he slapped her face, "You still don't know whether to live or die, and you insulted the princess. Do you think the Xiao family has lived too long?"
boom!
Mrs. Xiao, a womanly woman, could not withstand General Xiao's slap. She was caught off guard and slammed into the head of the bed, falling to the ground in a panic.
There was a buzzing in her ears, and Mrs. Xiao was stunned by this slap. She didn't come back to her senses for a long time.
"From now on, I don't want to hear a disrespectful word about the princess from anyone in the Xiao family." Xiao Yuanting warned coldly, "There is also that scheming woman Li Xue. The Xiao family cannot afford to support her, so they don't care about her.
Can she still come out of the Shadow Pavilion alive? From now on, she will not be allowed to step into the Xiao family's door again!"
Saying that, he walked away coldly.
Mrs. Xiao raised her hands to cover her face, unable to believe that Xiao Yuanting actually hit her.
How dare he hit her?
Xiao Yuanting wanted to go into the palace to plead guilty, but as soon as he reached the gate, he met the Li family couple and several servants and maids who came in a hurry. He looked at the leader Li with cold eyes, suppressed his anger, and stopped expressionlessly.
Come down and look at him.
"General." Mr. Li looked panicked and said hurriedly, "What is the general going to do?"
Xiao Yuanting sneered: "What are you going to do? It's not your precious daughter's fault. What can I do? Of course I'm going to the palace to plead guilty!"
"I'll go with you." Lord Li ignored his sarcasm and said hurriedly, "Li Xuan broke into the princess's mansion and was sued in front of the emperor. I...I don't know what to do now. Please
General, give me a move."
"There's nothing we can do."
Li Wenzhong choked back violently and his face turned red, "The Xiao family and the Li family are now on the same boat. One will be prosperous and the other will suffer..."
"Master Li." Xiao Yuanting turned to look at him, his eyes cold and mocking, "If I were you, I would not think about entering the palace now, but go directly to the princess mansion to apologize."
"Go to the Princess's Mansion to apologize?" Mrs. Li's expression changed, "Why should we go to the Princess's Mansion to apologize? Yun Zishu is ruthless, bullying Xue'er just because she is a princess, and she still wants us to humbly apologize to her?"
Xiao Yuanting's cold eyes fell on her face: "Since you think so, why did you come to Xiao's house? Can't you just take people to the princess's house to ask for help? Maybe the princess will have to apologize to you."
"I..." Mrs. Li's face turned green and white.
Li Wenzhong hesitated for a moment: "Do you really want to go to the princess's mansion to apologize?"
"The princess has sent the divorce letter to the Xiao family, and now everyone in the city knows that Yun Heng was divorced by the princess." Xiao Yuanting said coldly, "All this happened because of Li Xue!"
Li Wen Zhong was speechless: "I...I really don't know about this..."
"Li Xue planned to frame the princess first, and Li Xuan led people to break into the princess's house later. If you don't apologize, do you want the emperor to issue a decree to pardon the Li family for all the capital crimes they have committed?"
Li Wenzhong heard his cold words and realized the seriousness of the situation: "But... isn't this a family matter?"
Where do household chores need to involve life and death?
"Housework?" Xiao Yuanting's tone was cold, "Master Li is still dreaming. The princess has divorced Yun Heng. Do you think this is a housework? Housework can cause a storm in the city? Housework can directly bring Li Xue to the sword.
Sent to Shadow Pavilion? You are really ridiculous!"
After leaving these words, he walked away.
After walking outside the gate, General Xiao got on his horse and headed straight for the palace.
Li Wenzhong stood blankly at the gate, watching Xiao Yuanting ride away, leaving only a cloud of dust behind. He didn't know what to do for a while.
"Old... Master." Mrs. Li said in fear, "What should we do now? Will Xuan'er be in danger, will Xue'er be tortured? I... I..."
Lord Li gritted his teeth: "Forget it, go and beg the Ninth Princess."
For the sake of his son and daughter, he risked his life. What would happen if he humbled himself for a moment?
Yun Zishu is a royal princess after all. She has been wronged this time and must vent her anger. As long as she vents her anger and dissatisfaction, won't she have to return to the Xiao family sooner or later?
Mrs. Xiao is her mother-in-law. If she makes such a fuss, will she be the one to take advantage of her in the future?
It's just that Li Wenzhong never expected that he was willing to risk his old face, but his old face was of no use in front of Yun Zishu.
"What?" Standing outside the gate of the princess's mansion, Li Wenzhong looked at the housekeeper in disbelief, "The princess doesn't see me?"
"Master Li, can't you understand?" Butler Cheng frowned, "Her Royal Highness the Princess was injured and fell into a coma. She is not awake yet and cannot see Master Li."
Li Wenzhong lowered his voice and said, "Please ask the housekeeper to report again and say that I am here to make amends for the unfilial son. I hope that Your Highness the Princess will have enough money to spare Li Xuan."
"Let's wait until Her Royal Highness wakes up." The butler dropped these words and reached out to close the door.
"Butler!" Mrs. Li quickly reached out to stop her, "Can you let us see Li Xuan first?"
"Young Master Li is not under my control." The housekeeper said calmly, "He injured the princess, which is a crime of intending to assassinate the princess. He has been taken down by the people from the Shadow Pavilion and locked up. The decision can only be made after the princess wakes up.
How to dispose of it.”
Mrs. Li was paralyzed, why did she get into trouble with the Shadow Pavilion again?
Does Shadow Pavilion listen to the emperor or the ninth princess?
"Butler, is this... a mistake?" Mr. Li said, "Xuan'er just came to beg the princess to spare Li Xue, how... how could he assassinate the princess——"
Da da da!
There was a sound of horse hoofbeats, and the Li family couple turned around and saw a group of five horses galloping towards them like lightning. They were all black horses. The leader of the group was a man with a stern appearance, noble and handsome appearance.
Wearing a calm black robe, a crimson cloak fluttered in the wind, creating a formidable aura.
