Dingbei Hou's doctor brother
Chapter 237 Discipline
She glanced at the bamboo on the ground and said, "Now you're punishing me for these dead things. What is the princess to the marquis?"
Xiao Yan's eyes were cold and he didn't respond. He walked closer. Su Xin swallowed hard and retreated fearfully. There was a slope behind her. She moved forward and stepped on a bamboo pole, almost losing her balance.
The next moment, she felt her throat tighten. Xiao Yan pinched her neck and asked in a cold voice.
"Who are you calling a scoundrel? Who are you calling a dead thing? I've rebelled against the heavens and don't even know who my master is? How can a servant like you have the right to interfere in what I want to do? The princess has raised such a person who doesn't know the difference between high and low. Today, I will discipline her properly."
Su Xin was pinched so hard that her face turned red and her veins bulged, and she couldn't breathe. Her eyeballs seemed to be squeezed out by the strong force, and her hands were desperately digging at the hand that was tightly holding her neck.
Wen Zhong and several servants were terrified. Although they were afraid, they were also afraid that the matter would get out of hand and it would be difficult to handle with the princess, so they immediately went over to pull Xiao Yan.
Wen Zhong hurriedly advised, "My Lord, please let go. If you continue strangling her, she will die. It will be hard to explain to the princess, my Lord."
The servant just kept pulling the person and didn't dare to say anything, but Xiao Yan was too tall and strong to pull her at all, and his hands were very strong. Seeing that Su Xin was about to faint, his hand suddenly loosened.
Su Xin took a deep breath, covered her neck and coughed repeatedly. Wen Zhong supported her and was about to ask her to admit her mistake and apologize to Xiao Yan. But before she could open her mouth, Xiao Yan went to the slope to pick up a machete and was about to come down.
The servant was so frightened that he wisely stepped aside. Only Wen Zhong, his old bones trembling, stood in front and begged.
"Your Majesty, please don't do that. We will immediately replant the damaged bamboo and flowers. Your Majesty, please spare her life."
Without saying a word, Xiao Yan pushed Wen Zhong aside and reached out to grab Su Xin. Su Xin screamed in fear and ran away. Xiao Yan quickly followed, and Wen Zhong and the servant followed closely behind.
Su Xin, a woman, had never seen any fighting and killing. She usually just beat and scolded servants lower than herself. She was frightened by Xiao Yan's behavior and ran back to the main courtyard through the back building as if she was escaping for her life.
Xining was thinking about what flowers to plant in the yard when he saw Su Xin hurriedly run into the main door and slam the door shut.
She didn't understand why and knocked on the door. After a few knocks, there was no response. She was about to lose her temper when she saw Xiao Yan walking in angrily at the gate of the yard, holding a machete in his hand, followed by a group of servants.
It was the first time she saw Xiao Yan so angry. Her heart skipped a beat, but she still managed to stand in front of him and question him.
"What is the Marquis going to do?"
Xiao Yan didn't look at her, but only stared at the closed door, and said coldly, "Get out of the way."
Xining was stunned by these two words for a moment. She also bluntly retorted, "Su Xin is mine. If the Marquis doesn't explain the reason, what can I do if I don't let her go?"
Only then did Xiao Yan lower his eyes and stare at her, his tone still extremely cold.
"The princess's people don't know the rules, don't distinguish between superiors and subordinates, and have taken things from my house without permission. I am helping the princess to teach her servants. Please move aside, princess."
Xining stopped pretending, "Your Majesty, you're talking about those bamboos and flowers, right? I was the one who asked her to cut those things. So what? Now that I'm the Marquis' wife and the mistress of the house, I still have the final say over everything in the Marquis' mansion, right?"
"Your Highness is a princess, so please do as you please." Xiao Yan said, "But if you touch my things, that's another matter. You should never use other people's things without their permission. Your Highness is a princess, well-educated and well-mannered. How could she not understand this?"
Xining had a look of disdain on his face, the corners of his lips slightly raised, he turned and glanced towards the yard, and said calmly.
"My Lord, please don't forget that we were married in a ceremony. This entire mansion belongs to both you and me. As for the right of speech, it's in the hands of the world, and naturally, as your wife, I have the final say. But for you, my Lord, to storm into the main courtyard with a knife and try to kill my servant just for those inanimate objects, that doesn't make sense, does it?"
"You two, master and servant, can't stop talking about the mistress of the house, so I'll talk to you about this." Xiao Yan stared at him sideways.
"Although you were once a princess, you are now married into the Marquis's mansion as a woman. Behind closed doors, you are my wife in name only. Therefore, you should respect your husband in everything. As you said, even if this matter were to be spread around, it would be none of their business to interfere in the affairs of this Marquis' family. However, my wife has been incompetent in disciplining the servants and speaking disrespectfully to the head of the household, thus upsetting the hierarchy. As the head of the household, who can say anything when I have to deal with a slave like that? What do you say, Princess?"
Xining looked into his eyes, her heart trembling with fear. "What do you want to do?"
"Don't worry, I won't kill her." Xiao Yan said, "I just want one of her hands."
Xining's eyes were filled with astonishment, and just as he was about to say no, Xiao Yan kicked the doorman hard without saying a word. The wooden door bounced immediately, and a lot of dust was shaken out.
Everyone behind them was startled. Xining hurried over to pull Xiao Yan's arm. As she pulled, she saw the fierce kicking of the door. She shouted, "Are you crazy? Stop now! I told you to stop now, Xiao Yan."
When Xiao Yan thought of Su Xin's curse of "despicable", and then thought of his hard work that was wantonly trampled upon, he could not contain the anger in his heart, and kicked the door even more fiercely.
After a few kicks, the wooden door could not withstand the pressure and was kicked open. Su Xin was instantly terrified and ran to the inner room with her head in her hands. Xiao Yan was determined to go in, but Xining grabbed his arm tightly.
He turned his head and yelled at the servant, "Take her away."
The servant came forward tremblingly and pulled Xining aside. Xining struggled to see Xiao Yan walk into the room and shouted madly.
"Xiao Yan, stop it, don't touch her, Xiao Yan, let me go."
Wen Zhong's face was frazzled, and he clapped his hands together, thinking to himself, "What should I do? What should I do?"
In less than a few breaths, a shrill scream was heard from the room. Everyone was stunned. Xining screamed in surprise, and the servant was so frightened that he let go of the person.
Before Xining stepped onto the stairs, she saw Xiao Yan coming out with a knife. Blood from the knife kept dripping onto the ground. She was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to do.
Xiao Yan acted as if nothing had happened and ordered the servant coldly, "Throw him out of the house, remember to throw him far away."
Throw him out of the house?
Xining was frightened back to his senses by these three words. He subconsciously snatched the machete from Xiao Yan's hand and put it against his neck, saying angrily.
"If anyone dares to take her away, I will fall right here."
Wen Zhong and the servant felt as if their necks were on the blade. They were so frightened that they dared not breathe or act rashly, for fear that the princess would be doomed if she made a mistake.
Xiao Yan stared at Xining for a while, then naturally raised his hand and took the knife from her hand.
"My princess, you want to threaten me? You're holding the knife upside down. However, I'll let you stay here today out of my favor. Remember this: if you take anything in this mansion without my permission, I won't be as easy on you next time. I hope you'll remember this."
Seeing such cold-bloodedness, Xining felt as if his soul had been knocked out. He was unable to react for a moment and could only listen dully to Xiao Yanchong's orders to the servant.
"Restore everything in the garden to its original state."
