Chapter 221: Breaking the Cocoon, Reborn (Part 7)
Su Yaogeng is really...
After making such a scene last night, today he left without a word? If this gets out, it will truly become a great joke.
Han Jing is the only person who knows the truth, but she promised Han Siqu that she would not reveal it.
And she can understand the state of mind Han Siqu was in, but given his rare sincerity towards Su Yaogeng, Han Jing would never disclose why Han Siqu left home.
So Han Jing decided to leave this matter alone and pulled An Chuxue to take her leave.
Who knew that just as they reached the gate of the courtyard, someone came running in hurriedly, with blood on them.
Han Jing frowned and stopped her steps.
The person seemed to be a steward as well, and after saying a few words to the maid at the door, the maid went inside and called Aunt Xi out.
Aunt Xi looked at the person’s appearance and solemnly said, "Running about in a panic, what kind of decency is that? And your clothes, what’s the matter?"
The steward quickly replied, "Please forgive me, Aunt Xi, I was really anxious, Housekeeper Wang came to the Princess Mansion, and in my panic, I couldn’t change clothes in time. I ask Aunt Xi to make a decision for me!"
"What’s going on?" Aunt Xi, seeing his appearance, seemed to think it was not a trivial matter and quickly asked.
"This is what happened, this morning a steward from the manor came to deliver something to the mansion, just happened to run into Mr. Zheng, the brother of the Crown Prince Consort, who was riding a horse on the street early in the morning, and carelessly collided with him, that Mr. Zheng somehow was furious, and without asking any questions, started beating the person indiscriminately. The steward, after all, is one of our mansion’s people, resisted a few times when being beaten and seemed to have accidentally touched Mr. Zheng’s clothes, then Mr. Zheng, in a fit of anger, chopped off the person’s hand. Luckily someone brought the steward over here, I have already sent someone to call the doctor, but such a matter happened, I don’t dare to make decisions on my own, please Aunt Xi make a decision, this matter..." the steward wanted to ask how this matter should be dealt with.
Although the injured is just a steward from the manor, he is still someone from their Princess Mansion. If the other party had just simply beaten someone, they could have soothed the matter themselves, but who is this Mr. Zheng? Just a brother of a Crown Prince Consort, daring to treat someone from their Princess Mansion with such cruelty, chopping off someone’s hand, this is far too much bullying! If they let it rest like this, people in the Capital City might think their Princess Mansion is easy to bully!
This matter cannot be quietly settled no matter what.
But it ultimately involves the Crown Prince, so he, as a deputy steward, surely has no idea!
Aunt Xi was also quite surprised, solemnly saying, "This is simply lawless! You wait here, I will go and report to the Princess immediately!"
It’s outrageous to the extreme! The brother of a Crown Prince Consort recklessly riding and injuring someone in the street is one thing, but to actually go to such cruel lengths! Not to mention he is from their Princess Mansion, even if he was an ordinary citizen, this is far too much bullying!
Han Jing and An Chuxue on the side also heard this and were very shocked, truth be told they really couldn’t believe someone like this actually exists! Isn’t this too lawless!
An Chuxue was concerned with another matter, she hurriedly asked the steward, "Where is the injured person? How is his hand? Is it still intact? Quickly take me to see him!"
