Chapter 377 Qin Lian, a woman disguised as a man
In the huge enclosure.
The group attracted everyone's attention.
They were dressed in military uniforms, with stern faces and awe-inspiring demeanor.
The leader looked like a pale-faced scholar, with fair skin, bright eyes and white teeth. However, the murderous look on his face was no less than that of the people behind him.
She clasped her hands together and looked at the person sent by the Queen Mother. "Her Majesty, the Queen Mother has commanded us to avoid the formalities of paying our respects. We will immediately descend the cliff to search for him!"
After the greetings, the leader left with his men.
Just then, a group of little girls passed by chattering.
"Your Highness, your life is truly miserable. I heard there are snakes, insects, rats, ants, tigers, and wolves everywhere under the cliff. I'm afraid they've eaten all the corpses!"
"You have caused trouble for our prince. We must pay him compensation even though he is so precious!"
The maids used various means to imply that Chu Wanyu and the other two were dead.
The leader paused and lashed out with a whip, "How dare you, a servant, talk about your master!"
The little girls paused and knelt on the ground with a thud.
They were just slaves, with no control over their life and death, and they dared not debate.
At this moment, Ming Wan'er came over with her belly bulging. She looked at the leader in men's clothing and frowned, "What a big deal! How dare a small marquis reprimand the people who serve the Emperor and the Empress Dowager?"
Beating a dog depends on the owner.
Although the people here are servants, they are also servants of the Emperor and the Empress Dowager.
The leader's action is indeed an act of usurpation.
I thought that after I said these words, the other party would kneel down and beg for mercy.
Ming Wan'er waited for a moment, but saw the man opposite her holding his head high and his chest puffed out, his momentum not weakened at all. "According to the court laws, if someone commits an offense against his superiors, he will be punished with fifty lashes of the cane. If someone makes irresponsible remarks about the royal family, he will be punished with death by slow slicing in the most serious case, and with..." fifty military sticks.
"You..." Ming Wan'er gritted her teeth, "How dare you disrespect this princess?"
"I dare not! I am only acting according to the law!"
Ming Wan'er's chest heaved up and down with anger.
The leader curled his lips, clasped his hands together, and was about to leave.
A soft call suddenly sounded.
"and many more!"
The leader turned around and saw a woman rushing towards him. His pupils suddenly shrank, he lowered his head, and clasped his hands together, "Greetings to this young lady!"
"Miss Qin, how are you?" Chu Ruoran came slowly, her voice soft and a smile on her lips.
The leader shuddered and subconsciously took two steps back, "Miss, you've got the wrong person!"
"Then do you dare to argue with me in front of His Majesty! The crime of deceiving the emperor..." The ending tone rose, and the threat was obvious.
resignedly.
The leader looked up and said, "Qin Lian'an, I'm honored to meet you!"
Yes!
The leader was Qin Lian, a woman disguised as a man.
Her identity was exposed, but she remained calm, neither humble nor arrogant. "It's really inconvenient for a woman to be out in public. I'm here to rescue the princess by my grandfather's order, disguised as a man!"
This speech explained the reason why the woman dressed as a man.
Allen Chu raised an eyebrow and looked at Ming Wan'er, "What do you think, Princess?"
"Ah!"
Ming Wan'er sneered, "What a great skill!"
"Of course, the people of the Marquis' Mansion are always bold and reckless!" Chu Ruoran said, glancing aside, "Since you are here, as a junior, why don't you go and pay your respects to Grandmother and greet her?"
"Get lost, don't even get involved!" Qin Lian'an said bluntly, "My Marquis' Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion have no dealings with each other, so get lost too!"
"Rude! So rude!" Chu Ruoran covered her face with a handkerchief, as if she was frightened.
"You're the rude one, your whole family is rude. As expected, there's no good person among those who come from the Prime Minister's Mansion..."
Thinking of the grievances my aunt suffered.
Qin Lian'an fired at full power, "Favoring the concubine and killing the wife, monopolizing the wife's dowry..."
"Shut up!"
A full-bodied roar sounded.
Everyone followed the sound.
Then the old lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion came over surrounded by a crowd of people.
She was dressed in silk and satin, with her hair covered in pearls and jade, and she looked elegant and luxurious.
Unfortunately, the face was too haggard to support expensive clothes and jewelry.
Qin Li'an clicked his tongue twice, "Why, was I wrong?"
"What an unruly person!" The old lady's face was full of ferocity. "Your family is so arrogant!"
"So what if you're arrogant!"
Qin Lian took out the whip in his hand and swung it hard.
The sound of breaking air suddenly rang out, and everyone was startled.
The old lady's face turned pale and she almost fell to the ground.
The atmosphere was tense, and just when everyone thought Qin Lian was going to whip the old lady, the queen came hurriedly.
"Greetings to the Queen!"
Everyone knelt on the ground.
The Queen raised her hand and inquired, "No need for formalities, everyone, please stand up! What's going on? Why is there so much noise?"
Chu Ruoran spoke first and recounted the story with some exaggeration.
The Queen cast a contemptuous look at Qin Lian'an. "How dare you! You disguised yourself as a man and deceived the emperor. Considering that this is your first offense and you came here to save someone, I will forgive you this time. Come, send two maids to teach us the rules of the Marquisate!"
Qin Lian subconsciously wanted to refuse, but when he met the queen's gaze, he lowered his head unwillingly.
