The Moon is Full in the Traveling House

Chapter 70: Confrontation at Wenxinhou Mansion

Su Lun's riding skills were not very good, but at this moment, he was worried about Xiao An Ning's safety and had no time to care about other things. He could only follow the others and ride to Wen Xinhou Mansion. Fortunately, he had asked Qingfeng for riding skills before, and this was in the city after all, and the horses were not fast, so he could barely keep up with the team.

After arriving at the Wenxinhou Mansion, Xiao Anning was the first to dismount. The gatekeeper was so frightened by the momentum of this group of people that he ran to report. Xiao Anning stood in front of the gate of the Wenxinhou Mansion with a long whip in his hand and a stern face, and soon attracted the attention of a group of people. Wenxinhou hurried over after hearing the news. He glanced at Xiao Anning and other people in the general's mansion and said, "I don't know why Miss Xiao came to visit my humble home. I'm sorry for not welcoming you! But what do you mean by this, Miss?" It was not that Wenxinhou pretended to be confused, but because Song Ye knew that he had caused a big disaster, so he hid in his own yard after returning home. Wenxinhou knew nothing about this matter, so he was naturally confused.

Xiao An Ning sneered, "My Lord, why do you have to ask when you already know the answer? It's fine that the two young ladies in your mansion have repeatedly humiliated my sister and me, but today, Prince Ye even led people to attack and injure my brother. My Lord, do you think that our General's Mansion is easy to bully? Although I am a woman, I must seek justice for my younger brother."

When Marquis Wenxin heard this, cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He secretly said in his heart that it was not good. He never thought that things would develop to such a point. He hurriedly said, "Yer hurt your brother? Is there any misunderstanding? Second Miss, why don't you come to the mansion to sit down and have a cup of tea, and let's have a good chat. If it is a misunderstanding, it would be best to resolve it; if it is really my son's fault, I will definitely teach him a lesson. What do you think, Second Miss?"

Xiao An Ning looked at Wen Xinhou with cold eyes, and said without flinching: "Misunderstanding? Many people saw this! My brother was beaten with a bloody head, and now he is lying in the general's mansion recovering from his injuries! What, you dare not admit it? Hand over Song Ye, I want to see how capable he is!" Her voice was filled with a hint of anger and determination, which moved people.

Wen Xinhou secretly complained in his heart, he knew that this time it might not be easy to resolve. But he still tried to calm Xiao Anning's anger, after all, if it really got out of hand, it would not be good for both parties. So he spoke again: "Second Miss, please calm down. I will investigate this matter thoroughly. If it is really Ye'er's fault, I will never tolerate it. But before that, please give me a chance, let me understand the situation first."

Xiao An Ning looked at Wen Xin Hou coldly, with a flash of disdain in her eyes. She knew that Wen Xin Hou was stalling for time and wanted to suppress the matter. But she would never compromise easily, and she would make the people in Wen Xin Hou's mansion pay the price. "Okay, then let's go in and confront Master Ling. Xiao Yan, Captain Su, why don't we go meet Master Ye and see what else he has to say." After saying that, she took the lead and stepped into the mansion.

"Miss Xiao Er, it's really too hot today. Come, have a cup of tea to cool down, and then we can sit down and talk it over." Marquis Wenxin said with a flattering smile.

"Hmph!" Xiao An Ning snorted coldly, "My Lord, please stop stalling and call your precious son out! I am very impatient. If you are unwilling to hand over the prince, then I will go find him myself. But...if I accidentally touch something that I shouldn't touch, I'm sure you won't blame me, right?"

Hearing this, Wen Xinhou could not help but feel angry. He was a dignified marquis after all, but he was contradicted by a little girl, and in front of so many people. Where could he put his face?

He glared at the servants beside him and shouted, "What are you idiots still doing here? Hurry up and bring that bastard to me!"

The servants were so frightened that they were shaking all over. No one dared to say anything and they quickly ran away. For a moment, the whole living room became silent.

Not long after, Song Ye was finally brought here. When he saw Xiao Anning and the others, a trace of panic appeared on his face. But then he thought that this was his home after all, and he thought that the other party would not dare to do anything to him, so he quickly regained his composure.

Wen Xinhou looked at Song Ye in front of him with an angry face, and asked sternly: "Ye'er, Miss Xiao said that you led people to beat up the third young master of the general's mansion. What's going on?"

Song Ye stiffened his neck, his face full of disdain and indifference, and responded loudly: "So what? Those people from the general's mansion caused my father to be punished, and my mother and sister were also confined to their homes. I just taught him a lesson. How big of a deal can it be?"

"What a wicked son!" After hearing Song Ye's words, Wen Xinhou was so angry that his eyes turned black and he almost fainted. He secretly complained in his heart that this ignorant brat was really spoiled by his mother.

Xiao An Ning sneered and said coldly, "Oh? It sounds like Prince Ye is very dissatisfied with your majesty's punishment."

"Miss Xiao, please calm down. My son didn't mean that. He is young and ignorant, and his words are careless. Please don't take it to heart. I will definitely discipline him strictly..." Marquis Wenxin hurriedly explained, with a layer of sweat on his forehead. He knew very well that if these words were heard by His Majesty, and the Marquis Wenxin's family was accused of contempt for the emperor, then the entire family would be destroyed.

"Young and ignorant? Prince Ye seems to be two years older than my Anzhi! How about I give you a few gentle hits?" Xiao An Ning touched the whip in her hand, a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth, and a hint of disdain and provocation was revealed in her eyes.

She was the second daughter of the general's mansion. She had been practicing martial arts with her father since she was young. She was agile and nimble as a swallow. This was well known in the capital. When Wen Xinhou heard this, he broke out in a cold sweat. He knew how powerful this second daughter was, so he stepped forward to dissuade her: "Second daughter, you must not do this! The child is weak and sickly, how can she withstand your whip? If there is anything, we can discuss it properly..."

Xiao An Ning glanced at Wen Xinhou with a half-smile, and the teasing in her eyes became even stronger. She asked calmly, "So, how does the Marquis plan to deal with this matter?"

Beads of sweat appeared on Marquis Wenxin's forehead. He said nervously, "We still have some precious elixirs in our mansion. We will have them sent to the general's mansion later to help the third young master recuperate. In addition, I will compensate the third young master with another 10,000 taels of silver to calm him down. Do you think this is okay?" After saying that, he stared at Xiao An Ning nervously, fearing that she would not be satisfied with the answer.

"My Lord, do you think that our General's Mansion is short of money? Do you want to just get away with it like this?" Xiao An Ning's voice came out coldly.

"So what does the second young lady want?" Marquis Wenxin asked helplessly.

"It's very simple. Just let Song Ye apologize to An Zhi in front of everyone and then endure three whips from me, and the matter will be settled." Xiao An Ning replied calmly.

"Daddy, please don't do that! She will beat me to death." Song Ye, who was standing aside, grabbed Wen Xinhou's sleeve tightly and begged bitterly.

At this moment, another angry female voice sounded at the same time: "How can a girl like you be so cruel? Everyone knows the power of your whip. You clearly want to kill my son!" It turned out that Mrs. Song came over with Song Qiang and Song Ru.
