The Moon is Full in the Traveling House
Chapter 73 The maintenance of the eldest princess
The princess nodded and softened her voice, "Don't worry, Miss Xiao, I will handle this matter impartially. Marquis Wenxin, is what Miss Xiao just said true?"
Marquis Wenxin's lips moved and his expression changed constantly, but he still forced himself to remain calm and said, "Princess, there is a misunderstanding here. I had no intention of offending the Second Young Lady. It's just that the Second Young Lady's request was too harsh, and Madam only acted in a moment of desperation." As he spoke, he secretly observed the Princess's expression.
"Oh, you can hurt someone in a moment of desperation, Madam Song is really powerful." Princess Yuehua on the side couldn't help but interjected. She and Xiao Anning have been close since childhood. When she learned that Xiao Anzhi was injured and Anning went to the Wenxin Marquis Mansion to settle the account, she was worried that her friend would suffer, so she begged her mother to come with her to support her friend.
The eldest princess glanced at Princess Yuehua, who stuck out her tongue and stood aside obediently without saying anything else.
The princess's eyes fell on Wen Xinhou again, and her tone was a little dignified: "What did Miss Xiao ask for that made you want to fight?" Her eyes were as sharp as a knife, as if she could see through all the lies. Wen Xinhou's heart tightened, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.
"I wanted Prince Ye to apologize to Anzhi in public and accept the punishment of three lashes from me. However, the Marquis and his wife were biased and protective of the prince because they felt sorry for his young age. Not only that, they also spoke ill of him, which made me very disappointed. I didn't want to argue too much and just wanted to leave and seek justice from your majesty, but Madam Song refused to give up, which led to the scene just now." Xiao An Ning said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
The princess smiled and said softly, "It is indeed necessary to apologize, but your whip is quite powerful. If Prince Ye really has to endure these three whips, he will probably be beaten to pieces. The concerns of the Marquis and the Madam are not unreasonable..." Before she finished her words, Madam Song on the side seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw and cried hurriedly, "That's right! It is inevitable that children will get hurt when fighting. But Miss Xiao refused to give in and insisted on whipping Ye'er with a whip. Ye'er has been weak and sick since childhood. How can he withstand such torture? She clearly wants to take my son's life!"
The princess frowned slightly, but her expression did not change at all, as if it was just a small action that she did not notice. "As far as I know, it was Prince Ye who led his men to attack Young Master Xiao when he was alone. This is not just an ordinary fight between children."
Mrs. Song was obviously stunned when she heard this, but she quickly regained her composure and continued to argue, "This must be a misunderstanding! Ye'er has always been well-behaved and obedient, and it is impossible for her to do such a thing. Princess, please don't be misled by others!"
However, the princess was not fooled by Mrs. Song's words. Her voice suddenly became stern: "This was witnessed by Shen Sinian himself. Mrs. Song does not need to make any more unnecessary excuses." It turned out that Shen Sinian was the youngest son of the princess and Marquis Shenwei, and also Xiao Anzhi's classmate. Because of stomach discomfort today, he was delayed for some time after school and happened to see Xiao Anzhi being besieged by Song Ye and others. Unfortunately, he was not feeling well and could not help with all his strength. He could only find Xiaofeng in a hurry. If not, Xiao Anzhi's injury would be more serious.
"It was the people from the General's Mansion who bullied my sister and caused my father to be punished. I just taught Xiao Anzhi a small lesson. I did nothing wrong!" At this time, Song Ye didn't know what stimulated him, and he cried loudly. The cry was heartbreaking and made people feel palpitations.
The princess frowned. She couldn't understand how a little kid could be so arrogant and unreasonable. She said in a deep voice, "It was your majesty's decision that Marquis Wenxin and Miss Song were punished. Is Prince Ye dissatisfied with your majesty?"
Song Ye was at a loss for words when asked by the princess, but he still said with a perfunctory voice: "I... I am not dissatisfied with Your Majesty, I just feel sorry for my father and sister."
The princess sneered, thinking, this child is really spoiled, he dares to be disrespectful to His Majesty, it seems that Wenxinhou Mansion needs to be disciplined. She looked at Song Ye and said, "I will report this matter to my brother, Wenxinhou, take care of yourself." After that, she no longer paid attention to the people in Wenxinhou Mansion and took the lead to leave.
Xiao Anning and others followed closely and walked out of the Marquis' Mansion together.
After the princess, Xiao Anning and the others were no longer visible, Marquis Wenxin slapped Madam Song in the face and said angrily, "Look at what you have done. Didn't I warn you not to go out casually? And your good son and daughter, who you taught well, are now in such a mess. Are you satisfied?"
"Hmph, it's because you don't have the ability. If you were capable, no one would dare to come and bully you..." Mrs. Song replied unwillingly.
Marquis Wenxin laughed bitterly and said, "It is true that marrying an unvirtuous wife will bring disaster to three generations. It is really retribution..." After saying that, he ignored Madam Song's crying and cursing and left.
As soon as Xiao An Ning and his group walked outside the Marquis' Mansion, Princess Yuehua grabbed Xiao An Ning, looked left and right, and asked with concern: "An Ning, how are you? Did you not suffer any loss just now?"
Xiao An Ning chuckled and consoled him, "Don't worry, I'm fine. With Captain Su here, those people from the Song residence didn't even touch the corner of my clothes. Yuehua, thank you."
Princess Yuehua heaved a sigh of relief after hearing what Xiao An Ning said. She patted her chest and said, "That's good." Then she looked at Su Lun behind Captain Su and said, "Is this the famous Captain Su? Thank you for protecting An Ning."
"You are too polite, Princess. It is my duty." Su Lun bowed quickly and said.
"Okay, Yuehua, we can talk about it later. By the way, An Ning, how is An Zhi?" The eldest princess changed her serious tone and asked gently.
Xiao An Ning replied respectfully: "Thank you for your concern, Princess. Anzhi has taken the medicine and is no longer in danger. He just needs to rest for a few more days. I would also like to thank Princess for coming to help today."
The princess felt relieved when she heard this and said, "Why are you being so polite, kid? You and Yuehua have always been good friends and you are half my daughter. How can I watch you suffer? As long as Anzhi is fine, it's good. It's really unfortunate that Si Nian is not feeling well today. Yuehua and I will go back first. When he gets better, we will go to visit Anzhi together. Yuehua, let's go."
Xiao An Ning sent the eldest princess and her daughter onto the carriage. Princess Yuehua looked back at Xiao An Ning every few steps, her eyes full of reluctance. She said softly, "An Ning, I'll go to the general's mansion to find you when I'm free..." The voice gradually faded away until it disappeared at the end of the street.
"Second Miss, why don't you let me escort you back to your mansion?" Su Lun looked at Xiao An Ning and said softly.
Xiao Anning smiled slightly, jumped onto the horse with a swift movement, and responded, "Well done, Captain Su. Today, I am grateful for your help. I heard you mention that you were not a good rider before, but I think your riding skills are pretty good!"
Su Lun also got on the horse. He touched his head, showing a bit of naivety, and replied with a smile: "Perhaps the emergency forced me to bring out my potential."
"Puchi!" Xiao An Ning couldn't help but laugh, "Then let's go back quickly. I don't know if my mother and sister have come back yet. I'm really worried about An Zhi who is alone at home." After saying that, she whipped the horse and galloped away. Su Lun didn't hesitate and immediately followed.
Not long after, the two arrived at the general's mansion. Su Lun said goodbye to Xiao An Ning and turned to leave. Xiao An Ning was concerned about her brother and did not try to stop her. After Su Lun left, she also walked quickly into the mansion. Today's experience gave Su Lun a new understanding of Xiao An Ning. This woman was really interesting, he secretly sighed in his heart.
