The moment he got to the door, he heard Liu Zhenyuan call for his men to be beaten out. He quickly joined in. In this world, he would rather offend the emperor than Battle King.
A person who could ride Battle King's horse had not appeared yet, but this morning, this girl who could ride it came to Liu Family, what did this mean?
This meant that the relationship between Fang Ning and Battle King was not simple. He immediately made a decision. As long as this girl was satisfied, why bother sacrificing a branch?
"Wait a minute, who was the one who just scolded Miss Faang?"
"Patriarch, I, I …"
"If a woman doesn't stay in the backyard, she'll come out and interfere in business! My Liu Family will never do something that repays kindness with hatred! "I hope Miss Faang will let me off."
"…" Dongfang Ning was confused by the sudden change. Was she putting on an act or putting on an act? What was he trying to do?
"Liu Wanzhou, you know that Miss Faang isn't good at speaking, but you want her to send out a servant. Isn't that making things difficult for her?" "I think we might as well sell it …"
"You!"
"What's wrong with me?"
Wei Lingyun's venomous tongue was well-known among all the young masters of aristocratic families. It was fine if they wanted to sell an old lady that was a few decades old, but this old woman's identity was not ordinary.
This was truly slapping his face with Liu Family, but what could he do about it now? He was not afraid of just Wei Family, but there was Battle King behind this woman, and he had no choice but to suppress his anger. Wei Lingyun, this debt will slowly come back to you.
Anyone who could sit in the Patriarch's position would have their own path to success. After Liu Wanzhou adjusted his mood, he calmly said:
"I'll do as Young Master Wei says …"
"Patriarch, please spare my mother …" "Wu ~ She's old …" When Liu Zhenyuan heard this, he did not care about etiquette at all and hurriedly interrupted his work. Sell his mother? What the heck!
He didn't know why the family head suddenly changed his attitude and quickly begged for mercy. When he saw Liu Wanzhou give him a look, he quickly kowtowed to Dongfang Ning and said, "Miss Faang, my mother offended you. If you want to punish her, then punish me, my son. I'm willing to avenge my mother. Please …"
The difference between the exalted status of the ancient people was this great? At this moment, Dongfang Ning was extremely shocked in her heart. A clan dominating a region was actually being controlled by a clan head?
A woman of this age, with a son, a daughter, and a grandson. She was insufferably arrogant in this family, but the head of the family had said that she would be sold, so would she really be sold?
"Um, forget it, I didn't lose anything."
"Thank you, Miss Faang! Thank you, Miss Faang!" The old lady who had been so arrogant a moment ago actually knelt down and kowtowed again and again, not even daring to raise her head.
Dongfang Ning finally understood what a Venerable family and status was.
"Since Lord Miss Faang is so magnanimous, why don't you just scram!" Seventh Uncle, go outside and see what's going on. Why are the soldiers here?
Having offended someone, he emphasized his tone, and the fox-like Liu Zhenyuan immediately understood the meaning behind his words. This Fang Ning was definitely not a simple person; otherwise, their Patriarch would not have done such a thing.
"Liu Wanzhou, you have eyes!" "Fang Ning, let's go to the front courtyard to watch the show as well."
Wei Lingyun waved his fan proudly and walked towards the outer court with Dongfang Ning.
Liu Family courtyard
Wang Chengcai and his party were seated opposite to each other on two long benches.
Outside the Liu Family Hall, however, there were currently three layers of citizens surrounding them. The large black mass was very frightening.
"Witch? Master Wang, you said that the esteemed guest of my Liu Family is a demoness? " Although the scene made his legs go a bit limp, he would naturally not hand the person over. As long as he settled this matter, the master of the family would definitely use him again.
"Lord National Uncle doesn't know, what demon …"
"Demon?"
"Ah, which side of Ning …" Wang Chengcai couldn't continue, he didn't dare to provoke the Liu Family, so he turned to look at Imperial Physician Yang at the side and silently asked for help.
"National Uncle, the Son of Heaven has committed the same crime as a commoner. Although that demoness saved your son's leg and became a guest at your Liu family, but with more than a hundred murders, you have to think carefully before speaking!"
"What a joke! According to Imperial Physician Yang's conjecture, those people who died happened last night five hours ago, and last night, everyone knew that Fang Ning was attending my son's treatment. I wonder how she managed to escape to a mountain five kilometers away to commit a crime, and then return from a mountain five kilometers away?
Could it be that you are jealous of him for curing you of the injury on your leg that you cannot heal, so you decided to take this opportunity to bite back? "
When the onlookers heard this, they felt that it made sense!
"So that's how it is?"
"Last night, Fang Ning was at the Liu Estate. Everyone knows that we wronged her!"
The commoners were not brainless either. It was just that everyone's words made sense. They only knew that they had to find excuses for those who had died. They didn't really understand who was right and who was wrong.
"Hahahaha!" National Uncle, I advise you to hand over the culprit. It is not worth it to protect a demoness who has committed a heinous crime like this. Say, she was always in your house last night.
"Stop slandering us! "Nonsense!"
"Fellow villagers, one hundred and ninety-one lives, could his Liu Family really cover the sky with one hand?" Yang Zhongming turned towards the commoners outside the courtyard with a righteous face. Yesterday, he dared to dishonor Yang Zhongming, so today he must drag his Liu Family into the water as well.
"We must give the dead villagers an explanation and capture them!"
"Take down Demoness Fang Ning!" Avenge the dead villagers! "
Yang Zhongming's gentle sentence made the people side towards him.
"Imperial Physician Yang, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. What evidence do you have to assert that Miss Faang is a demoness, and that my Liu Family is an accomplice? Do you know that Miss Faang's family is located at the Shan Yang Mountain, and that she was lucky enough to escape death in front of my residence?"
"Is National Uncle really going to protect her?"
"Take out all the evidence if you have any. If you do not have any, the humiliation that you bullied my Liu Family will be repaid a hundred times!"
"Liu, National Uncle, I'm afraid there is a misunderstanding …" The more Wang Chengcai listened, the more uncertain he became. Let's not talk about the many suspicious points in this case, he could not afford to offend Liu Family. Heavens, who was going to save him?
"Mayor Wang, are you a person that fears power and doesn't dare to make decisions for the people?"
Seeing that Wang Chengcai had the intention to go against him, Yang Zhongming immediately and strictly faced the masses:
"Fellow villagers, did nearly two hundred lives go to waste? Fang Ning had obviously regained her Shan Yang Mountain in the middle of the night, while National Uncle had taken her as a false witness …
Last night, my follower was guarding the Liu Family courtyard the entire time. He personally saw the witch walk towards the Shan Yang Mountain and saw her die.
"Kill the witch!"
"Kill the witch!"
"…"
