She's skilled in medicine, martial arts, and even understands animal language—the abandoned dau

"Exactly, how about that, scared now? Hurry up and kowtow to me to apologize!" Shen Chongyang thought Shen Man was intimidated by his status when he heard her ask this, and said smugly despite the pain.

Shen Man looked him up and down, a cold glint in her eyes: "Is your mother Lady Wang, the wife of the Marquis of Qingyang?"

"Oh, so you know about my mother. It seems you're quite familiar with my family situation. Have you been interested in me all along, and are you deliberately putting on this show of playing hard to get?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Man thought to herself that the capital city was really small. She had just come out for a stroll and unexpectedly bumped into this imposter prince who had been brought in by the Wang family to impersonate her.

Now that she's caught me with this opportunity, I have to teach her a lesson.

"You have feelings for me? I do have feelings for you, but they're murderous!" Before Shen Man finished speaking, her fists slammed into Shen Chongyang's face.

"Ah! You filthy woman, how dare you hit this young master? Are you tired of living?" Shen Chongyang was hit in the nose, and bright red blood immediately flowed down. The pain instantly sobered him up, and he glared angrily at Shen Man.

"I'm going to hit you!"

When Shen Manyan thought of how the Wang family had sent people to assassinate her in Qiufeng Town, her anger erupted like a volcano. She decided to vent all her anger on Shen Chongyang and make him pay for the Wang family's debt.

She had thought that after Wang abandoned her, she would take back an outstanding son to raise with care, but she never expected that he would be such a good-for-nothing lecher.

Shen Man continued her offensive, and taking advantage of Shen Chongyang's dazed state, she delivered a sharp side kick that accurately struck his waist and abdomen.

Shen Chongyang screamed repeatedly as he flew out like a sandbag and crashed heavily onto a street stall, scattering fruits and vegetables all over the ground.

"What are you all standing there for? Get her! Take this crazy woman down!" Shen Chongyang yelled hoarsely at his group of cronies as he lay on the ground.

This group of people, who were usually arrogant and domineering, became somewhat intimidated when they saw Shen Man's ruthless actions. However, out of pride, they still forced themselves to surround her.

Shen Man sneered, her eyes full of contempt. Having grown up in harsh conditions and learned martial arts, dealing with these good-for-nothings was a piece of cake for her.

She moved with lightning speed, weaving through the crowd with ease, her punches landing with deadly force, her feet moving with incredible speed.

In no time, everyone was lying sprawled on the ground, crying and screaming.

Seeing this, Su Yao also joined the fray, helping Shen Man teach these spoiled brats a lesson.

Just then, the sound of galloping hooves could be heard in the distance. It turned out that Shen Chongyang's attendants, seeing that the situation was not good, had returned to the mansion to fetch reinforcements.

The head of the guards glared angrily at Shen Man and her companion, shouting, "Who are you? How dare you cause trouble in the capital and even injure my young master?"

As soon as they finished speaking, dozens of guards surrounded them, swords drawn, and the atmosphere immediately became very tense.

Shen Man showed no fear, standing calmly in place, her gaze sweeping over the crowd with sharp eyes, and spoke slowly and deliberately: "Who I am is not important. What is important is that your young master is harassing a woman in the street and committing evil deeds. Does your lord know about this?"

Upon hearing this, the guard leader frowned slightly and looked at Shen Chongyang.

Shen Chongyang hurriedly shouted, "Don't listen to this madwoman's nonsense! How could I, the young master, do such a thing? Quickly, arrest her for me!"

As the guard leader hesitated, Shen Man raised her voice again: "If you don't want people to know, then don't do it in the first place. The people here can all testify to what you said and what you did."

Upon hearing this, the surrounding people nodded in agreement.

The guard leader's expression changed, and he whispered to Shen Chongyang, "Young Master, if this matter escalates, it will be difficult to explain to the Marquis."

Shen Chongyang gritted his teeth and said, "Am I just going to let this beating go to waste? What use are you good-for-nothings in the Marquis's mansion?!"

"Young Master, the Marquis has been in a bad mood these past few days. If he finds out about this, you'll probably get another beating!" The head guard continued to comfort Shen Chongyang.

Shen Man was too lazy to deal with them and said directly to the head of the guards, "Go back and tell Marquis Qingyang, 'It is the father's fault if the son is not taught.' Since he does not want to discipline his son, someone else will discipline him!"

After saying that, she pulled Su Yao up and quickly left the crowd.

After this incident, they lost interest in shopping and went straight back to their accommodation.

The head guard watched her departing figure, secretly thinking to himself that these two women, who were able to gain the upper hand in front of so many men, must be no ordinary people. It seemed he had to go back and report to the Marquis to find out their identities.

Back at her lodgings, Su Yao was still shaken. "Miss, although we escaped unscathed today, the Qingyang Marquis's mansion will definitely not let this go. We need to make plans as soon as possible."

Shen Man's gaze was firm. "I'm waiting for them to come. It's time to settle all the grudges that have accumulated over the years."

As expected, Shen Chongyang returned to the Qingyang Marquis's residence under the escort of his guards.

Upon seeing Wang, he immediately clutched his wound and began to wail and howl.

Seeing this, Madam Wang was heartbroken. She ordered someone to fetch a doctor while shouting, "Who the hell dared to beat my son like this!"

Shen Chongyang embellished the story, of course omitting the fact that he had harassed the woman.

Upon hearing this, Wang was so angry that she trembled all over. "No matter who she is, if she dares to touch my precious son, I will make her pay the price!"

At this moment, the head of the guards came to report back, informing Wang of what he had seen, heard, and speculated.

After squinting and pondering for a moment, Madam Wang said coldly, "It is my son's good fortune to have taken a liking to her. This woman is so ungrateful and even beat my son. It is simply outrageous!"

Regardless of her background, no one in the capital dares to oppose the Qingyang Marquis's mansion. Gao Ming, immediately send men to find out the whereabouts of those two women. Have them keep a close watch on them and capture them at the right moment. I want to see these two fools for myself!

The guard leader dared not delay and immediately sent people to investigate the whereabouts of Shen Man and the other person.

Today happened to be the day the Lin family was holding a banquet to celebrate Lin Simiao's exoneration. Marquis Qingyang was invited to attend the banquet, and by the time he returned, it was already past 3 PM.

Upon learning that Marquis Qingyang had returned to the manor, Lady Wang risked being scolded by him again and went to his study to tell him about Shen Chongyang being beaten.

Although the Marquis of Qingyang did not particularly like this son, no matter how useless he was, he was still his son. Hearing that he had been beaten outside, he was naturally very angry.

However, ever since he had been deceived by Wang, he couldn't help but have some doubts about what the Marquis of Qingyang had said to her. He finally decided to ask someone himself to find out what really happened.

"Someone, go and summon Gao Ming to me. I want to question him myself!"

Gao Ming was the name of the guard leader.

Seeing that the Marquis of Qingyang did not believe her, Lady Wang had no choice but to leave awkwardly.
