Chapter 6: Being Difficult
Xie Yan heard Xie Mu's sobbing sound, without turning around - at this time, she couldn't be weak, and even more so, she couldn't see tears!
Madam Xie saw that Xie Yan was not speaking, as if she had understood something. Just as she was about to retreat back into the hall, she suddenly heard Xie Yan say: "Old Madam, Li's nanny knows some medical skills, let her take care of Second Brother." Her voice was extremely calm, as if it were a trivial matter.
Xie Mu was taken aback, only then remembering that in the midst of disaster, she had actually thrown her injured grandson behind her back. She looked around frantically and saw Xie Su lying unconscious on the ground with no one paying attention to him. At this time, everyone was worried about their own safety, all eyes were fixed on the eldest sister, and this child was forgotten.
Da Ya Tou still remembers...
Xie's mother felt ashamed in her heart, having lived for so many years yet being outdone by a young maid in her teens. She wiped away tears and shouted: "Someone from the Li family, come quickly to support Second Master."
A woman in her 40s, trembling with fear, walked out of the crowd and looked at Xie Mu. She glanced at the eldest sister by the door, hesitated for a moment, and finally approached Xie Su's side. She grasped his arm and took a deep breath. Everyone said that Jin Yiwei was cruel and ruthless, and indeed, with one kick, he broke Xie Su's arm. Fortunately, there were no further blows, so it should still be possible to save him...
The night is softly veiled, and the moonlight flows like water.
Every man in the hall, including those in the audience, held their breath and looked up at that figure. The turning point of fate, the outcome of victory or defeat, all depended on whether that figure could hold on...
Chang Qing saw this situation and couldn't help but frown. Tonight was supposed to be about going to the study room to investigate further, but he was being held back by this servant girl. He wanted to turn around and ignore her, but he was also afraid that these barbarians would really hurt the servant girl, which would not look good for General Jing Yi's face...
But...
Old Horse is right, let's see how long this kid can last...
He looked up at the girl on the eaves, the moonlight shining on her jade-like face, her eyebrows lowered and her head bowed, unable to see her expression, but her posture was still the most common and most dignified one of a noble lady, elegant, noble, and unapproachable.
These nobles are indeed laughable...
At this time still so pretentious...
Always calm and collected, Qing saw Ma walking towards him and asked in a low voice: "Boss... what do you think we should do? Should we force our way through? Looking at this girl's attitude, it seems like she's going to keep watch tonight. But tomorrow is when Chen Gonggong arrives, if there are any more unexpected changes, won't we brothers have been busy for nothing?" The Imperial Guards usually use this method to bully the civil officials, even if they reverse the case the next day, those family members will not be spared, and many people will hang themselves after the incident, which is also why the civil officials hate these imperial claws so much.
Chang Qing sank into thought for a moment, furrowing his brow as he said, "Jing Yi and Duke Wei are extremely close friends."
Ma Fang's face changed color when he heard this, Wei Gonggong was the top of their Jin Yiwei, if it was true, they would be in a difficult position to trouble that girl, but...
"Grass, old big brother, is this still reasonable? We, the great masters, are being blocked by a little girl and can't even eat the meat in the pot. If word gets out, we'll be laughed at by other brothers!" Pang Qi was getting impatient, spat out a wad of saliva, stood up, and charged forward, but saw Ma Fang walk over and kick him, saying: "Damn it, you're waiting for her? Can't even wait for a little girl? Where's the energy from training all night?"
Pang Qi saw Ma Fang's attitude and knew that the "hard rush" plan had been vetoed. He sat down again in anger, staring at Xie Yan. Ma Fang whispered a few words to the people around him, and everyone couldn't help but whisper to each other. After a long time, they quieted down again, all looking at Xie Yan with gloomy faces.
Xie Yan was completely unaware of everything in front of her, not even blinking an eye - actually she was exceptionally beautiful, and it should be a delightful thing to admire a beauty under the moonlight. However, this so-called beauty either had a charming demeanor or was lively and vivid, which would have been interesting. But this person in front of her had no expression at all, didn't move a bit, and was not much different from a clay statue in a temple...
It was already late at night, and some men had started to doze off, while others were muttering to each other. Some were determined to win no matter what, and they brought out their best skills, staring intently at Xie Xian. As the night wore on, the noise of the day gradually subsided, and most people in the hall fell asleep, exhausted from the shocks they had experienced during the day. Even the imperial guards outside were dozing off. Suddenly, Xie Xian's statue-like figure moved ever so slightly.
Chang Qing slowly opened his eyes, his martial arts had long entered the realm of perfection. Within twenty feet, no matter what his opponent did, he could sense it. At this moment, he felt Xie Yan's tremble and a cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth...
It's really going to collapse...
Although Xie Yan was more resilient than the average rich girl, she was still a delicate woman. Maintaining a posture for several hours left her numb all over, and what's worse, having exerted herself earlier without feeling tired, now that she had caught her breath, fatigue swept in like a tidal wave. She looked around, bit her lip, and quietly sat down on the stool.
Cang Qing's eyes suddenly narrowed, and he let out a cold hum. Ma Fang and the others heard this sound and suddenly opened their eyes...
Xie Yan was so frightened that she quickly stood up...
Several men looked at each other and then closed their eyes...
Xie Wan raised her head and looked at Chang Qing not far away, her slender eyebrows slightly furrowed. This man... this man... was indeed a sworn enemy of the Xie family!
Thinking of these people who didn't sleep, but were just waiting for an opportunity to move, and once they did... the consequences would be unbearable! She gritted her teeth, picked up the needle and thread from the stool, took a few steps forward, moved away from the stool, took a deep breath, and stood there again, standing...
Do you still want to hold on?
He gazed at the girl with a cold smile, thinking that for someone of his caliber, standing all night was nothing, but for a delicate miss like her, it was truly impressive that she had lasted until this hour. And then... he suddenly thought of a good idea to solve the problem...
"If you close your eyes, it's equivalent to falling asleep!" In the quiet night, that cold voice rang out, exciting all the men to open their eyes.
"It's no wonder she's the boss, even if she closes her eyes and falls asleep, General Jingyi would know about it and wouldn't blame her too much. Who made her unable to see?" Ma Fang chuckled and stretched his waist, saying: "This girl is quite formidable, I've already taken a nap, Old Pang don't worry, hurry up!" Everyone heard this and gazed at Xie Yan with piercing eyes, ready to pounce on the moment she closed her eyes.
Xie Yun suddenly lifted her head, glaring at Chang Qing. At this moment, she was anxious and deep, sinister and ruthless, not even sparing women and children, actually wanting to force the Xie family to death!
"Sister..." A voice suddenly sounded from behind.
