Many people gathered around the door, but no one dared to step forward to stop him.

After all, this is the darkest street corner in the capital, and no one will mind their own business.

Zi'er didn't dare to hesitate anymore and quickly rushed inside.

A dirty old woman grabbed her wrist and stopped her: "Girl, you must not go. The weaver girl living inside doesn't know where she came from. Every once in a while, someone will collect her debts. I'll give you a beating or even a few scoldings. If you go in, those people will definitely take you away with them because of their viciousness!"

Others also echoed: "Look at you, you look like a flower, you must be selling for more than her!"

Zi'er gritted her teeth and said, "I can't stand idly by. No matter what, I can't stand under the emperor's feet and force girls into prostitution without the king's law. They are so brave!"

She thanked the old woman and quickly walked into the courtyard.

When the big men holding Zhi Niang saw Zi'er appearing, their eyes immediately widened.

The leader was the first to speak: "Hey, if I had told you that you had such a beautiful little girl at home, wouldn't your debt have been paid off long ago if you sold her to us?"

Zhi Niang's cheeks were now swollen and ugly, and a lot of blood flowed from the corners of her mouth.

She quickly rushed forward to block Zi'er behind her and said: "Don't come over here, she is not my child, she is just a girl who hugged an injustice, you can't hurt her!"

After saying that, she pushed Zi'er hard: "You hurry up and leave. Even if I am beaten to death, I have nothing to do with you as an outsider. Just leave!"

Zi'er was pushed and staggered. If she hadn't pulled the door frame hard, she would have fallen to the ground.

There was no room for her to say anything, so the courtyard door was closed with a bang.

The sound of Zhi Niang breaking a jar suddenly sounded inside: "Come at me if you can. Either you leave today, or you beat me to death here!"

The leader Yin Chechai said: "Okay, then give me a beating!"

Immediately, heart-rending screams rang out in the hospital.

Everyone couldn't help but sigh: "Zhi Niang will definitely die now. Oh, poor woman, how can she provoke such a group of people? It is said that they are famous bullies in the capital!"

Zi'er was so frightened that she trembled all over. She kept telling herself not to panic and that she would definitely find a way to stop this.

She saw a stick lying next to her, took it into her hand, kicked open the courtyard door, rushed in, grabbed one person and knocked him hard on the head.

"Bang!" Not only did the stick break into two pieces, but the man also fell to the ground with blood on his face.

Who is not the leader?

He held his bleeding forehead and ordered fiercely: "Grab that little bitch's hoof. If she dares to hit me, I will torture her until she can neither survive nor die!"

Zi'er said contemptuously: "Which of you dares to catch me? Let's not talk about you breaking into people's houses. Just because you hurt people with evil intentions, you have already made a mistake!"

The leader argued: "She owes us money, so it's right for us to collect the debt, right?"

Zi'er asked: "Is she defaulting on the debt?"

The leader suddenly felt a little unreasonable, but he really wasn't.

After a moment, he spoke again with a ferocious look: "You are a sharp-tongued bitch. If I don't deal with you, how can I establish my authority? I won't kill you with my own hands!"

He quickly stood up and rushed towards Zi'er.

Zi'er subconsciously stepped back, and Zhi Niang took the lead to hug him.

She said anxiously: "Come on, leave me alone. This is the trouble I caused myself. What does it have to do with you?"

The leader grabbed her hair and dragged her to the well in the yard.

He sneered: "She hurt me and she still wants to escape? You stinky girl, if you dare to resist again, I will push her into the well now and drown her alive!"

Zi'er's expression changed suddenly and she quickly stopped her: "Don't hurt her, I've already asked someone to report it to the official. You are wasting your life. No matter what the reason, you will be severely punished!"

The leader was obviously frightened by her words, and there was a flash of struggle in his eyes.

At this moment, not only people from the government, but also Lin Ruoyou and Fang Qingyue arrived together.

When Zi'er saw her, her eyes immediately turned red.

She trembled and murmured: "Miss, why did you come?"

Lin Ruoyou tidied her messy hair and said, "Can I not come when you are in danger? Why didn't you tell them that you are from the Ministry of War's Secretariat?"

Zi'er pursed her lips. She didn't want to harm the young lady's reputation.

Let's not talk about whether Zhi Niang is her aunt or not. She was the cause of the disaster, and she cannot rely on the prestige of the Minister of War to smooth over the matter.

But what she didn't expect was that the young lady could bring someone here.

At this time, the leader had been subdued, and he was pinned to the ground by the officers and soldiers, with a ferocious look on his face.

He shouted in a hoarse voice: "It is natural to pay back debts. If I come to collect debts, which rule am I breaking? Which law?"

Fang Qingyue sneered: "You can't just bully and beat the people of the Ministry of War Shangshu Mansion wantonly!"

The leader froze immediately: "Minister of War?"

He looked at Zi'er blankly, a look of horror flashed across his face.

Lin Ruoyou didn't hesitate and said directly: "Uncle, send them all to the government!"

While dragging people out, Fang Qingyue shouted: "They're all gone, there's no more fun to see, come back quickly!"
