Chapter 314
“Let’s go.” Qin Jiu didn’t bother to pay attention to Li Qin Wang Fei and just faintly glanced at the other party, made a gesture to Du Ruo for her to follow, and walked away on her own.
However, this faint glance of Qin Jiu, in the eyes of Li Qin Wang Fei, was like a hard slap on her face.
This disrespectful and rude girl doesn’t respect her elders!
Li Qin Wang Fei was even angrier and ordered again, “Stop her for this wangfei!”
So, the maidservants immediately responded to the order and aggressively approached Qin Jiu, blocking her way.
Qin Jiu wasn’t someone who would suffer loss and immediately reached for the whip.
Du Ruo on the other hand thought that her fist would not be enough to beat these old momos, and looked in the direction of the Xiao mansion, thinking that she still had a chance to call for help.
“Squeak!”
At the same time, the door of the Xiao Mansion opened and a woman draped in a black cloak came out, it was none other than Madam Xiao.
Madam Xiao’s face looked cold and dignified, her pair of old and wise eyes were shining brightly making the seven to eight maidservants behind her look blurry.
“Stop!”
Madam Xiao slightly raised her voice and bellowed, striding towards Li Qin Wang Fei and Qin Jiu.
Seeing Madam Xiao come, Du Ruo’s heart breathed a long sigh of relief and was completely at ease.
Li Qin Wang Fei looked at the approaching Madam Xiao as she tightly clutched the eighteen bodhi Buddha beads in her hand, and the anger in her eyes burned brighter even more.
“Sister-in-law, do you really not know what’s good for you?” Li Qin Wang Fei’s face was ashen, feeling that her good intentions had been fed to a donkey’s liver and lungs.
Madam Xiao gave a sneering, cold snort.
Sparks fly between the two eyes that clashes and the air suddenly becomes tense at once, ready to explode.
The surrounding servants of Li Qin Wang Fei who watched this scene were wary, but they didn’t dare to act rashly and stood with their heads bowed awkwardly.
“Whether it is good or bad, I certainly know. Don’t bother this wangfei.” Madam Xiao stroked her sleeve casually.
Li Qin Wang Fei: “…”
Madam Xiao ignored the other party’s gloomy face that was almost dripping with ink, and with her eyes sparkling she said, “I wanted to wait for the result of the joint trial of the three divisions but since you’re doing it like this, I’m going to play the dengwen drum.”
“Xiao Jiu, let’s go!”
As soon as Madam Xiao beckoned, Qin Jiu immediately followed and affectionately took Madam Xiao’s arm, who looked at her with a smile on her face.
Li Qin Wang Fei was dumbfounded, her anger disappeared instantly and her ears couldn’t believe what she heard. Madam Xiao, what did she say she was going to do?!
“Madam Xiao, you’re crazy!”
This time, Li Qin Wang Fei even forgot and forgo calling her sister-in-law formally and blurted out.
Madam Xiao answered with her actions as she just gets into the carriage with Qin Jiu’s help, and the latter followed closely behind.
The coachman “snapped” his whip, and the carriage with Madam Xiao and Qin Jiu inside drove towards the entrance of the alley, passing through Li Qin Wang Fei’s side, causing the strong wind to blow up a corner of her dress…
Li Qin Wang Fei was in a daze as she never expected that things would develop to this point.
“Wangfei….” the old momo called out to Li Qin Wang Fei apprehensively, knowing that things were not good.
Only then did Li Qin Wang Fei react and hastily commanded, “Quick, chase them!”
Li Qin Wang Fei hurriedly boarded her royal carriage while holding the hem of her dress and ordered the young servant, “Go back and report to wangye!”
In just a few words, Li Qin Wang Fei was already sweating and her heart was as cold as ice, if Duan Wang Fei beats the dengwen drum, the whole capital, no, the whole Daqi would see the royal family as a joke!
The royal carriage hurriedly chased Madam Xiao’s carriage, knowing the importance of this matter the driver frequently hit the horse with his whip.
Passers-by on the street saw the royal carriage and knew that the owner of the carriage was either rich or noble, so they hurriedly gave way both sides of the street.
The two carriages arrived at the entrance of the palace one after the other, Qin Jiu assisted Madam Xiao getting off the carriage again, then two of them walked towards the Dengwen Drum outside the right gate of Chang’an with a clear goal.
The Dengwen Drum was set up by the founding Emperor of the Qi Dynasty to allow common people to air their grievances as a means of “sending down information” by beating the drums but in order to avoid malicious petitions, according to the law of Daqi, if the person who beat the Dengwen drum had no merit or grant, he would be slapped with 30 sticks.
Madam Xiao was a dignified wangfei, so she was naturally qualified to beat the drum.
The guards around also recognized her, they were first surprised, and then remembered the rumors, so they associated this with the Duan Wang House, looking pensive.
The dengwen drum of the Qi Dynasty has not been beaten for more than ten years, and since the ascension of the current Emperor to the throne, this would be the first time!
Under the scorching gazes of all the guards, Madam Xiao walked to the Dengwen drum in a calm manner, raised her hand, and picked up the drumstick, and without hesitation she struck down the drum.
“Dong! Dong! Dong!”
