C68 (2/2)
Wen Jiu looked at the panicking crowd, and a cold smile formed on his lips. ”If you guys want to climb any higher, feel free to say it.
”This servant doesn't dare!”
The crowd didn't dare to say anything.
If these thirty strikes continued, even if he didn't die, he would still die. If he were to give up his life to Shuntian, his little life would be over.
The thorny heads of the people who urged them to make trouble and the servants and maids bestowed upon them by the palace all recognized Wen Jiu as a bumpkin who had come from a small place and did not understand the rules of the palace. They did not know the twists and turns of the Dijing City.
Wen Jiu had always been easy to talk to too, so these people thought that she was someone easy to bully.
They did not know that in the years that Wen Jiu was the first female tycoon, there were not only tens of thousands of people, there were also thousands of people with ulterior motives. A few mere servants actually dared to take the risk and attack him, that was simply seeking death!
”There's nothing to be afraid of.”
Wen Jiu took off his cape and threw it over to Jin Er, his expression indifferent: ”Since you've said all that, it would be better to say that you understand.”
Everyone buried their heads in silence.
This Young Madame was still young, his usual gentle and warm smile was simply … He was actually such a real person.
Wen Jiu said: ”Those who have spoken just now, go and fetch the documents from the residence from the butler.”
Everyone then realized the seriousness of the situation and pleaded, ”Young Madame … I beg Young Madame not to rush us out of the palace, what you have done, is no different from taking our lives … ”
Xie Heng was a new rich person in the imperial court, so no one would ignore the people who rushed out of his residence, probably because they wanted to step on his legs and help Xie's Mansion to vent their anger.
”Who says there's no difference?”
Wen Jiu's eyes were dark red, and her tone was extremely indifferent: ”If you all die here, you will dirty my family's land.”
Everyone was stunned into silence.
As expected, Xie Family Young Madame was not some weakling.
The morning sun shined slightly, and only the light sounds of falling flowers and other branches could be heard.
After Wen Jiu finished arranging for the people to be taken care of, only a dozen of the people who were previously given rewards by the palace remained, and the entire palace became much quieter in an instant.
She ordered half of the people to help her in the shop, but no one complained.
Just as she was about to go out, Xie Heng who had changed into a court attire walked through the corridor and towards her, smiling: ”Young Madame is truly imposing, I am truly disrespectful.”
”Ordinary.” Wen Jiu laughed helplessly, ”Compared to elder brother, my movements are nothing.”
Compared to the eldest young master, who had already taken out his sword on the first day to hack at her, her manners were now very gentle.
These people who had come out from the palace had many spies, and relying on the fact that they had once served the masters of the palace, they were very difficult to order around.
Wen Jiu had been busy the entire time, and had allowed them to stay here. When he met with an opportunity like this, he would immediately settle it, and would be able to sleep more soundly in the future.
Xie Heng was speechless for a moment, and then took out a warm hand furnace from his sleeve and handed it over to her. ”I never thought that doing things for brother would actually have some weight in your heart.”
Wen Jiu, ”...”
How did that come about? Is that what they're talking about?
Although the youth's words were not proper, the heat was not bad. As Wen Jiu held it in his hands, his entire body warmed up quite a bit.
In the early morning, the angry feelings of those slavers had also somewhat eased up.
She raised her eyes to look at the youth and slowly asked, ”What is elder brother thinking about coming to the imperial court today?”
