When Wang Wu heard that he was going to be imprisoned in Tianlao, he immediately looked at Liang Shigao.

"Master Liang, I know I was wrong. You can punish me in any way you want, but you can't let me go to jail!"

Liang Shigao glanced at Leng Jin and saw that he was sitting there with a calm face and had no intention of speaking. He took a deep breath and waved to Wang Wu.

"Wang Wu, you smashed Bao'an Hall on its first day of business. This has had a very bad impact on Bao'an Hall. Whether you will be sent to prison depends on what Shopkeeper Luo thinks. After all, it was Shopkeeper Luo who was hurt..."

Upon hearing this, Wang Wu hurriedly looked at Luo Nianxi.

"Manager Luo, tell me, how should I compensate you for this?"

Seeing Wang Wu’s expression, Luo Nianxi felt really upset.

If the Eighth Prince hadn't stepped forward today and she hadn't revealed her identity, I'm afraid Wang Wu would never have surrendered to her.

It seems that no matter which dynasty or era, as long as there are people in power, one can stand tall.

She must give Wang Wu a good lesson.

Thinking of this, she looked at Wang Wu and said seriously, word by word:

"According to the losses in this account book, five times the compensation..."

"Five times?"

"Yes, five times. Not only that, you have to apologize to Bao'an Hall and stand in front of the door of Bao'an Hall for a day with five big characters on your body: Wang Wu knows he is wrong..."

"This……"

Luo Nianxi's request made Wang Wu's face turn pale.

You can ask him to pay compensation, but what's the difference between asking him to stand at the gate of Bao'an Hall and admit his mistake and parading him through the streets?

"Manager Luo, can you be flexible? I can pay a little more money. This street stand..."

"If Shopkeeper Wang feels that standing on the street to apologize is inappropriate, then please ask Lord Liang to handle it impartially. My Bao'an Hall dares to stand in Chang'an Hall, and we are not short of money. He does not need to compensate for this loss. Please ask Lord Liang to sentence him to stand trial in Tianlao according to the law!"

Hearing this, Wang Wu's forehead was covered in cold sweat and he shook his head hastily.

"No, no, no, Sir Liang, I am willing to do as Shopkeeper Luo says."

The arrogance he had just shown disappeared completely at this moment.

He knew that the person he was facing was the Eighth Prince, whom he could not afford to offend. If he did not obey Shopkeeper Luo's words, he would definitely go to jail, and it was uncertain how long he would stay there.

It's just standing on a street, no big deal.

After some self-comfort, he felt better.

Seeing that he agreed, Liang Shigao slammed the gavel again and roared righteously:

"Wang Wu, the owner of Shangpin Hall, maliciously smashed Bao'antang. He is now sentenced to pay five times the amount of damage to Bao'antang and wear a sign with the words: Wang Wu knows he was wrong. He is to stand in front of Bao'antang for one day. This case is closed and no one may object."

After saying this, he looked at Leng Jin again.

"Eighth Prince, do you think this is a suitable verdict for this case?"

Leng Jin frowned and looked at Luo Nianxi.

"Luo'er, do you think this is appropriate?"

Luo Nianxi nodded with an unpleasant look on her face.

"It is natural that Lord Liang will make a fair judgment."

Seeing that she agreed, Liang Shigao looked at Wang Wu.

"Wang Wu, go and prepare the silver immediately. Tomorrow morning, take the silver to Bao'an Hall!"

Although Wang Wu was unwilling, he didn't dare to say anything more.

He nodded and replied:

"I understand. I will go back and prepare now."

As he spoke, he took the account book from Luo Nianxi, frowned secretly, stood up, and walked out of the government office.

Seeing him leave, Leng Jin also stood up and said to Luo Nianxi:

"Luo'er, uncle has something to say to you, let's go!"

Liang Shigao saw this and hurried over.

"Eighth Prince, it's a rare visit for you. It won't be too late to have a cup of tea before leaving?"

"No need, Sir Liang is busy, I still have things to do."

After saying that, he looked at Xu Mingjun.

"Mingjun, please take care of Luo'er's clinic from now on. I don't want to see anything like what happened today again."

Xu Mingjun hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted.

"Teacher, rest assured. I will remember this."

Leng Jin nodded, put his hands behind his back, Luo Nianxi secretly stuck out her tongue and quickly followed.

Liang Shigao didn't breathe a sigh of relief until he sent the man out of Shuntian Prefecture.

Xu Mingjun was a little surprised. He had followed his teacher for many years, so how come he had never heard that he had a nephew?

Seeing Liang Shigao looking at him, he immediately frowned.

"Sir Liang, I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave now."

He was afraid that Liang Shigao would ask him about his teacher's nephew. He would not lie, but he didn't know how to answer.

Only after leaving the government office for a distance did Leng Jin stop and look back at Luo Nianxi, sizing her up and down.

"If Yan'er hadn't mentioned it, I really wouldn't have realized it was you."

When he heard him mention Leng Yiyan's name, Luo Nianxi knew that it was Leng Yiyan who asked him to help him.

She scratched her head a little embarrassedly.

"Eighth Uncle, thank you so much today. Did Yan'er ask you to save me?"

Leng Jin shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly.

"Well, Wang Wu is the nephew of Concubine Rong and the cousin of Leng Yicheng. Ordinary people can't scare him."

Hearing this, Luo Nianxi suddenly realized.

"No wonder he is so arrogant. Thank you Eighth Uncle for your help today. After what happened today, I'm afraid no one will dare to cause trouble in Bao'an Hall in the future."

Leng Jin shook his head worriedly.

"Don't be too optimistic. On the surface, no one dares to cause trouble to you, but there is no guarantee that they won't trip you up behind your back. In short, be more careful about everything."

"Thank you for your guidance, Uncle Eighth..."

"Well, by the way, I have to go find Si Jin to play with. I heard from Yan Er that he can now sit up by himself and laugh. Thinking of his cute appearance, I can't help but want to tease him. Do you want to go back with me?"

Luo Nianxi smiled and shook her head.

"I have to go back to Bao'an Hall first. Several people in the clinic have been frightened, and I need to go and comfort them. You go play with Si Jin first, I'll be back later. By the way, please stay for dinner tonight..."

Leng Jin nodded without hesitation.

"Okay, then I'll obey your command."

Leaving these words behind, Leng Jin got on the carriage with the help of the guards. After Luo Nianxi waved to him, she also went straight to Bao'an Hall.

……

After Wang Wu came out of the government office, he became angrier and angrier the more he thought about it. How could he, who had always been domineering, swallow this humiliation so easily?

He thought about it, turned around and headed back home, heading straight for the Prince's Mansion.

During the period of house arrest, Leng Yicheng calmed down a lot due to the constant admonitions of Concubine Rong.

He cut flowers and played with birds in the Prince's Mansion every day. When he had free time, he would walk around in the back garden with Luo Nianqing. All matters outside were left to Acai to handle.

At this moment, he was sitting in the main hall drinking tea, while his twelfth and thirteenth concubines were massaging his legs...

"Your Highness, please come to my room tonight. You haven't been there for a long time."

"Your Highness promised last night that he would come to my room tonight, so don't snatch it from me, Twelfth Sister."

"Who is competing with you? Your Highness should share the spoils equally. Besides, where Your Highness wants to go is up to Your Highness to decide, right?"

Leng Yicheng half-closed his eyes, quietly enjoying the comfortable feeling of having two women serving him at the same time.

During this period, because Luo Nianqing was pregnant, in order to appease his wife and thirteen concubines, he began to spend the night in these concubines' rooms according to his mood. This also caused these concubines to compete for favor again after being quiet for a while.

At this time, Ah Cai came forward to report,

"Your Highness, Wang Wu is here."
