Chapter 039: Counterattack

Before going to bed at night, Shen Yan was about to take the inexplicable and unprepared wisteria to Tingfeng Pavilion, but Li Chengqi, who had not been here once a day, came at this time. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"What are you doing at such a late hour?" Shen Yan showed a tired look and showed a very unpleasant look to see him.

"I don't see you for a day, like every three autumns. I'm missing you. Li Chengqi joked.

"I'm sleepy." Shen Yan's face immediately turned cold.

Li Chengqi smiled disappreciatively, and then told her: "When the prince arrives in Ning'an City tomorrow, the local officials will greet him with great fanfare, including Ling Zun." ”

"The prince is finally here?" Shen Yan was delighted, but the next moment, she was a little apprehensive.

"Miss Shen sleeps peacefully." Li Chengqi didn't say anything more, got up and left.

Shen Yan thought, the prince is here, no matter what he will bring, it is better than waiting in the Hou Mansion like this. However, before that, she will not give up an opportunity to take revenge on Jiao. Not to mention that the old lady has to pay off the debt of the previous life, she still has to pay off the debt last night.

"Wisteria, follow me to a place."

"Where is Miss Shen going so late?" Wisteria asked.

"Just follow me."

Wisteria followed Shen Yan to Tingfeng Pavilion, and heard Shen Yan say that she wanted to sleep in Tingfeng Pavilion for one night, she was so surprised that she couldn't speak for a long time. She only felt that this Miss Shen was acting very perversely, "Miss Shen ......"

"You don't have to say anything, just sleep." Shen Yan blocked her mouth, not wanting to annoy herself by listening to her ask anything. I suffered last night, and Bai Jian also had a sad day, and at the moment she was listening to the wind pavilion, she just wanted to sleep well and wake up naturally. After all, when the crown prince comes tomorrow, she needs to have enough energy to think and even deal with it.

After Shen Yan slept in the Listening Wind Pavilion, Huo Qing went to her room. He lay down with his clothes, thinking about the nonsense she had told him, and he woke up a little awake and couldn't sleep. He was not afraid of ghosts, but he had a guess in his heart: Will someone make trouble and deliberately scare Miss Shen?

However, the silence of the night still made him close his eyes half asleep and half awake.

As Shen Yan expected, Jiao's really took further action. She sent Wang Da and Sun Hu again, wanting him to kidnap Shen Yan in the same way, and teach another lesson.

The two of them came to the guest room where Shen Yan lived, poked open the window paper, and were about to blow smoke inside. As soon as the thin bamboo tube that blew smoke reached in, it was vigorously dragged inside. Soon the window was kicked open and hit Sun Hu's head hard. When Wang Da saw Huo Qing jumping out of it, his first reaction was to run away. But with his brute strength, how could he outrun Huo Qing's speed? Within a moment's effort, Huo Qing caught him and Sun Hu together.

"Last night, you two beat Miss Shen with a trick?" Huo Qing interrogated sharply.

He didn't draw his sword, but pointed it at the two of them with his scabbard, and they were already frightened. Wang Da panicked and said, "We don't have it...... No. ”

"Then what do you want to do to Miss Shen tonight?"

Sun Hu thought for a while and said, "We see that Miss Shen is not going well, and we want to stun her and throw her out of the Hou Mansion......"

Huo Qing was skeptical of their words, but he didn't want to ask more. He originally wanted to send the two to Ning Anhou for disposal, but it was late at night, so he forced the two of them to return to the room, and then untied the belt from one of them, tied the two of them together and threw them in the corner, only to wait for the next morning, and then take the two of them to Ning Anhou to confess.

In the distance of the guest room, Li Chengmao's attendant Ding Quan took all this in his eyes, and he didn't leave with peace of mind until he felt that he didn't need to help himself. When leaving, he also muttered happily: "Now the old lady will be unlucky!" ”

The night passed quickly.

The next day, Shen Yan woke up with some pain in her body. However, seeing Huo Qing come back and bring her the good news that she had caught the thief, she was in a very happy mood.

"Master Hou asked Miss Shen to confront the old lady in Fushoutang." Huo Qing didn't say anything, just explained like this.

Fushoutang is the residence of the Jiao family. Li Chengqi took the two domestic servants Wang Da and Sun Hu who acted last night to Fushoutang, and asked Shen Yan to go over, undoubtedly to expose Jiao's rude behavior towards her and kill Jiao's spirit.

When Shen Yan arrived at Fushou Hall with Huo Qing, Jiao's henchmen Wang Da and Sun Hu were already kneeling under the hall. Jiao Shi and Li Chengqi sat on the left and right, and Jiao Huaiqing, Jiao Huaiyu, and Li Chengmao and others were all present. Outside the hall, there were male and female servants standing in a neat line.

This kind of formation can only occur when something particularly big happens in the Hou Mansion. It can be seen that Li Chengqi took this opportunity to fight against Jiao's great determination.

Shen Yan entered the hall, glanced at everyone with a smile, and did enough etiquette, as a guest, to greet the host's family.

Jiao Shi only cared about drinking tea by himself, and didn't even look at Shen Yan with his eyes. In fact, she also knew what she was going to face, but she behaved so calmly.

"Tell me, who instructed the two of you to be rude to Miss Shen?" After Shen Yan sat down, Li Chengqi began to interrogate.

Jiao was willing to send Wang Da and Sun Hu to do this kind of thing, and he trusted them very much. How could the two of them confess Jiao's family?

As Shen Yan expected, the two had the same caliber. They always insisted that no one instructed them, and only said that they were angry because Miss Shen was disrespectful to the old lady, and wanted to throw Miss Shen out of the Hou Mansion at night.

"Steward Zhong......" Li Chengqi saw that the two were hard-mouthed, so he ordered Zhong Ce to execute the two.

"Old lady," Shen Yan suddenly spoke, looking at Jiao's and asking, "But I don't know how to deal with the Hou Mansion's subordinates being rude to the Hou Ye's guests?" ”

Jiao Shi looked back at Shen Yan and moved his lips, but he didn't speak.

"Steward Zhong, you say." Li Chengqi gave an order.

Zhong Ce looked at Jiao's family, and then at Wang Da and Sun Hu kneeling in the hall, and then said cautiously: "If you are light, you will be whipped to see red, and if you are heavy, you will be beaten to death with a stick." ”

"The housewife of that family, who did not manage her own minions well, is there a mistake in disciplining her or conniving at the evil of her subordinates?" Shen Yan asked again.

"This ......" Zhong Ce didn't dare to reply.

"Pull these two minions down and beat them to death." Li Chengqi immediately gave the order.

Wang Da and Sun Hu heard the words and hurriedly begged for mercy, but when they couldn't, they begged Jiao for help.

"Wait!" Because she deprived the lives of the two scapegoats, Shen Yan felt unwilling and cruel. She hurriedly stopped Li Chengqi, "Master Hou knows that the two of them are just scapegoats, and they can only be punished, so why should they take the lives of the two of them?" I also hope that the Hou Ye will be kind and spare the two of them from dying. ”

When the frightened two people heard this, they were shocked at first, and then the hope of survival fell on Shen Yan.

"Since Miss Shen intercedes for the two of you, I will spare you two from dying." Li Chengqi quickly gave Shen Yan this face, and then ordered Zhong Ce: "Drag the two of them out, whip them to see red, expel them from the Hou Mansion, and never use them again." ”

punished the minions, what about the masters of the minions? Shen Yan looked at Jiao's face, which was no longer as calm as before, and showed a provocative smile.
