The moment Wen Jiu entered the door, he heard the two servants howling as if they were dead fathers, four to five attendant s behind him rushed in with sticks in their hands, as though they did not see her around at all, they directly rushed to the side of the pond and mercilessly beat the young man up.

Linglan struggled for a while in the pond, which was half the height of a man, before two maids pulled him up, "Quick … "Quick, invite my aunt over …"

Wen Jiu was completely amazed by this performance, which did not pause at all.

The only strange thing was that after the youth was hit, he did not scream in pain. He only coldly said, "You should be clear in your heart that I did not take you lightly."

Wen Jiu could not see the young man's appearance clearly. Even from a distance of over a dozen steps, Wen Jiu still felt that this person's voice was cold.

Could this be the Third Brother that Xie Qi was talking about?

If even a Miss Cousin who had borrowed Xie's Mansion could bully him like this, then this person's life would truly be too miserable.

"Stop!" Wen Jiu called out to stop her and quickly walked over.

Originally, she had only come to deliver a osmanthus cake, but who would have thought that she would encounter such a situation?

Seeing Fifth Young Madame coming over, the group of people all sheathed their staff and stopped in their tracks.

Linglan said angrily: "Don't bother with her! "Go on and hit him. If he is crippled, that would be for the best. If he dares to disrespect me, I will definitely teach him a lesson today!"

The teenager was silent. Blood dripped from his arm as blood dripped to the ground. The yard was filled with weeds. The 17-18 year old teenager was extremely thin and fragile, but right now, he was giving off a kind of desolate beauty.

The servants paused, raised their sticks and were about to hit him again.

"Does the family head still have the surname 'Xie'?"

Wen Jiu's voice sank, and he shouted lightly: "A group of blind fools! Miss Cousin fell into the pond and entered the water with his brain, did you all go dumb as well? "Hurry up and invite the madame and the second wife to make the decision!"

The servants looked at each other, and some of them even replied.

Linglan was a little taken aback.

This lowly peasant girl, just now … had actually completely suppressed her aura, and made the servants of Xie's Mansion obey her commands obediently.

"Third Brother?"

Wen Jiu put down the food box, and walked closer to see how the young man who had been silent was injured. However, the moment he raised his head, she was so frightened that her face had almost turned white.

Xie Xuan!

The Chief Minister who had entered the pavilion to pay his respects at the age of twenty and became the youngest and most promising person in the history of Great Yan Dynasty had unexpectedly suffered so miserably at that young age.

Although this person's political achievements were impressive, he was a tyrannical and cruel person. There was a saying among the court officials, "Provoking the heavens and provoking the earth would provoke Chief Xie." Even more exaggerated was that even in the heat of June, wherever this person was, there would be a cold wind blowing around as if he had fallen into a pond.

Wen Jiu had suffered a lot at his hands in his previous life, but when he saw this face, he felt chills down his spine.

"I didn't."

Xie Xuan looked at her, his eyes a little cold and stubborn, but extremely serious.

"I... "I know."

Wen Jiu tried his best to keep his voice as calm as possible, took out a brocade handkerchief from his bosom and handed it over to him, "There's so much blood on your hands, you should wipe it first."

Xie Xuan said: "She jumped in herself."

Wen Jiu suddenly felt his heart ache when he heard this, and nodded. With a serious expression, he repeated, "I know what you said is true."

Xie Xuan did not speak anymore. His injured arm was too heavy to even lift, and his other hand only quietly held onto the square handkerchief.

"Wen Jiu!" Linglan said angrily: "What exactly is your relationship with this person? You'll believe anything he says! Do you have something to do with him? "No wonder you agreed to marry my fifth cousin so readily. You've already found a lover …"

As soon as the words left his mouth, Wen Jiu raised his hand and slapped Linglan hard. A loud "Pa" sound rang in the night, and everyone saw Miss Cousin turn his head away from the slap, half of his face instantly swelling up.

"The servants call you 'Miss'. Have you really forgotten what your surname is?"

Wen Jiu said, "Linglan, I advise you to clean up the water in your head before speaking again. This is a Third Young Master of Xie Family, what qualifications do you have to humiliate him like this?!"

In his previous life, Xie Xuan had rejected the love of countless beauties. Just the three of them were princesses, and he had always been single.

At that time, it had broken the hearts of countless girls.

Even the tepid wine had to admit that this Xie Xueqing could not find any flaws other than that his temper was too poor.

This Miss Cousin really has a screw loose, chasing after his own death.

Linglan was dizzy from her beatings, she pounced forward to fight with Wen Jiu, but at that moment, a group of servants entered with lanterns in their hands, causing the entire courtyard to be lit up.

Old Madame Xie shouted: "Stop her!"

Everyone tried their best to stop Linglan, but when they saw the person approaching, they immediately weakened.

The two maidservants took the opportunity to tell the story of Xie Xuan being frivolous to the two masters. These two maidservants were originally brought over by the Ling family, and they relied on Second Madame Xie to help their young miss.

As he spoke, he began to babble.

"He is the son of a lowly person, so his way of doing things is naturally very despicable as well!"

"If it wasn't for Madam's benevolence back then, his life wouldn't have remained! "Yet now you dare to insult our young mistress like this …"

This master and his servant were superb in their singing.

However, Wen Jiu suddenly remembered that he seemed to have heard the Second Madame Xie mention to the old lady that the Eldest Young Master would only get married after betrothing Linglan to him after twenty years. The old lady had said that there were still Third Young Master s and Fourth Young Master s who were about the same age as the Miss Cousin.

Looking at Linglan's expression, he seemed to be restraining himself in front of Xie Heng, and it was probably because he had heard the sound of the wind and was unable to control himself, and wanted to get rid of Xie Xuan, the stumbling block first?
