Chapter 119: Master Pei Cursing
Facing Jiang Zihan's accusations and shouting, Jiang Wansang continued to sip his tea leisurely, showing no intention of paying any attention.
She came here today just to watch the show, and it was not her business to manage the performance.
Her disregard for others immediately ignoring Jiang Zihan's anger, "Jiang Wansang, there has to be a limit to your mischief. Our patience with you is limited!"
Hearing this, Jiang Wansang looked up at her and said, "Heh!"
After saying just one word, she looked away and gently sipped the tea, smacking her lips as if to say, "This is indeed good tea."
This set of actions is even more excessive than pointing at the other person's nose and scolding him.
Jiang Zihan was so angry that he ignored all rationality and said, "You..."
Just as she was about to step forward, she was grabbed by the person behind her.
Although Meng Lianshu was also angry, she still had some rationality. After grabbing Jiang Zihan, she shook her head slightly, motioning her to look the other way.
Jiang Zihan turned around and saw his father with a stern face, looking at him with a warning in his eyes.
Jiang Zihan suddenly reacted and remembered that there were so many people watching around, and her identity was the legitimate daughter of the prime minister.
Her father always reminded her that she must remember her identity as the daughter of the prime minister when she was outside and must not bring shame to the Jiang family.
Jiang Zihan quickly suppressed the anger that was about to erupt, but he still couldn't control the hostility in his eyes when looking at Jiang Wansang.
Jiang Gaoyuan hid nearby and watched for a long time. Although he still didn't know why Pei Zhanzhou came, he could tell that he had bad intentions.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, since Pei Zhanzhou was unwilling to go into the mansion to talk, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk out.
"Master Imperial Master, why have you come with such a large force? I wonder what has happened?"
He glanced at Li Ma and her son, who were being forced to kneel on the ground. He ignored their hopeful gaze and said with a smile, "If these two servants have offended the Imperial Master, I can hand them over to the Imperial Master for punishment. I will definitely not show any favoritism."
"However, these two have served in my residence for many years. Even if they have no merit, they have worked hard. I hope that Master Imperial Master will give me a lenient punishment for my sake."
These two flawless sentences not only completely absolved him of the responsibility for what the mother and son had done, but also maintained his good reputation as a humble and friendly person.
If Jiang Wansang didn't want to watch the show quietly, she would have put down her teacup and applauded him.
It was only at this time that Pei Zhanzhou finally spoke: "The person these two offended was not our national master, but our national master's savior."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes fell on Jiang Wansang again.
Everyone in the imperial city knows that the eldest daughter of the Jiang family is the savior of Master Pei.
So, Master Pei came here in such a grand manner today to support Miss Jiang?
Jiang Zihan's rage, which had just been suppressed, surged up again, and he pointed at Jiang Wansang angrily, "It's you who spoke nonsense in front of the Imperial Master!"
She quickly looked at Pei Zhanzhou, "Master Imperial Master, please don't believe her. Ever since you've backed me, my sister has become arrogant and domineering, like she's gone mad. She even hit my parents and me."
She sighed, looking helpless. "Originally, I didn't want to talk about this. After all, her parents raised her. She's a woman who grew up in the inner chambers with long hair and little knowledge. If this were to get out, it would definitely damage her reputation. But she's really going too far."
As she spoke, she looked at Jiang Wansang again, her eyes filled with disappointment. "They say family disgrace should not be aired in public. It was fine if you just made a scene at home before, but now you've even dragged the Imperial Preceptor into this, and even made a scene in front of so many people. Aren't you just trying to gain some attention? Aren't you afraid that I'll come back and steal your status as the Prime Minister's daughter?"
"My parents have already said that even if I come back, you will still be their daughter. They will treat us equally and even put you ahead of me. I will not compete with you for the engagement with the Seventh Prince. Why don't you believe it?"
I have to say that although Jiang Zihan has a strange way of thinking and is a little arrogant, his mind is still very quick. In just a short while, he came up with an excuse for today's farce and put the blame on Jiang Wansang.
Of course, she was able to come up with a solution so quickly because that was what she had in mind.
With Jiang Zihan's words, and the fact that the heroine's halo automatically beautified everything she said, the people around almost all believed it, and all looked at Jiang Wansang with strange eyes.
There were also many people talking secretly and pointing at her.
Jiang Wansang: "..."
She hasn't said a word since she appeared, yet Jiang Zihan keeps harassing her. Is this the fate of a vicious female supporting character?
Jiang Wansang didn't even put down the teacup in her hand. She looked up at Jiang Zihan, and her eyes seemed to clearly say "Are you crazy?"
She was about to curse when someone else acted faster than her, "The wind is so strong today. Has Miss Jiang lost her mind?"
Everyone looked at Pei Zhanzhou who was speaking in surprise, with an expression as if they had seen a ghost.
They never expected that in their lifetime, they would actually be able to witness Master Pei scolding someone with their own eyes.
Not to mention them, even Jiang Wansang was surprised and turned to look at the people around him in surprise.
The latter looked at Jiang Zihan without any emotion on his face, as if he was not the one who had just cursed.
He said calmly, "In your eyes, this national teacher is the kind of fool who can be fooled by a few words?"
No one spoke, and even everyone subconsciously slowed down their breathing. After all, Master Pei's anger was not something that ordinary people could bear.
Jiang Zihan's expression also changed, "That's not what I meant, I..."
She was speechless for a moment.
No matter how much she thought she was different in Pei Zhanzhou's heart, she didn't dare to say that Pei Zhanzhou was a fool in front of so many people.
But if you don't agree with Master Pei, wouldn't that be like admitting in front of so many people that you're crazy!
Pei Zhanzhou didn't care about her reaction. After all, the favor he owed him had been repaid, and Jiang Zihan was no different to him than anyone else.
Meng Lianshu was unwilling to let her precious daughter suffer such a great injustice. She stepped forward despite the pressure from Master Pei and hugged Jiang Zihan in her arms. "Master Master, what do you want to do today? You might as well tell me directly."
Her expression was somewhat dissatisfied and her tone was a little heavy, obviously blaming her.
Pei Zhanzhou didn't care much, but instead looked at Jiang Gaoyuan, "Prime Minister Jiang, have you heard of the recent rumors in the Imperial City?"
When it comes to rumors, everyone thinks of things about Jiang Wansang's life experience, and they all look at Jiang Gaoyuan, wanting to know from him whether it is true or false.
Jiang Gaoyuan's face changed slightly. He never expected that his grand visit today would be because of this.
He was the one who arranged the incident back then. He knew the truth of the rumors better than anyone else, so he sent someone to investigate as soon as he heard the news, but they found nothing.
How could he know that with Pei Zhanzhou's involvement in this matter, he would never be able to find out before the right time.
But now that he saw Li Ma and her son tied up there, Jiang Gaoyuan had already guessed what was going on.
