The queen of the last days became a maid and just wanted to lie down

Pei Yi had never even met this cousin, and he couldn't understand how he had offended her.

When she said that, Li Xia became even angrier.

She stared at Pei Yi coldly, and the more she looked at his face, the more she hated it.

A maid, not only was she arrogant and conceited, but she also dared to speak to her in such a tough manner. As she said this, she ordered the maid to go up and slap her in the face.

Pei Yi said in disbelief: "What is this cousin doing? Even if you want to punish me, you should tell me the reason. I am a servant in the mansion of Marquis Pingxi. You should look at the owner when you beat a dog."

"You have to look at the master before you beat a dog. You, a slut, not only stole my pearl necklace, but you also dared to talk back to me. Today, I will teach you a lesson on behalf of my aunt. Come on, hold her down and beat her to death."

Pei Yi felt more and more that something was wrong with her vicious tone.

Pei Yi stood up immediately and looked at the maids coldly.

The old woman was a little frightened by being looked at, and even Li Xia was a little scared, but then she thought, a criminal slave dared to slap her in the face today. If she didn't teach her a lesson, how could she gain a foothold in the Pingxi Marquis' Mansion in the future.

"What are you waiting for? Do you want to be sold out too?"

After Li Xia gave the order, the maids and servants had to rush up and deal with Pei Yi even though they were afraid.

Pei Yi had some experience in martial arts and easily knocked these old women to the ground.

The old women covered their painful parts and wailed, not daring to get up again.

Pei Yi looked at Li Xia coldly: "My cousin broke into the princess's yard for no reason and wanted to beat up the people in her yard without knowing the reason. She doesn't take the princess seriously at all."

"You! It was you, a slut, who stole my pearl necklace. I was just teaching you a lesson on behalf of my aunt. What's wrong with that? Even if my aunt knew, she would only praise me. You little dog slave, why don't you kneel down and accept your punishment?"

Pei Yi could kneel down and kowtow to her, but he would never accept groundless slander.

What happened at home has made her realize that if someone wants to deal with the Pei family, they can easily make up an excuse.

It seems that I have offended this cousin unintentionally.

The lost pearl necklace was just an excuse for her to clean herself up.

Pei Yi thought that if nothing worked out today, he could only kidnap this cousin and escape. After all, judging from the situation, she didn't just want to beat him up, but also wanted her life.

Seeing that the two sides were on the verge of a fight, Li Xia just wanted to capture this man and sell him far away instead of killing him.

Suddenly, a stop call was heard at the gate of the courtyard. Everyone turned their heads and saw Princess Yanghe's eldest son, Liang Hongwen, the son of Marquis Pingxi, striding over with his servant. He had a face as handsome as a jade crown and was very tall. His ink-black robe was embroidered with dark patterns of bamboo leaves, and his pair of phoenix eyes made people feel a little scared when he looked at people.

As soon as Liang Hongwen arrived, Li Xia, who had just been furious and arrogant, immediately ran over aggrieved and grabbed his arm and acted like a spoiled child, "Brother Hongwen, you have to make the decision for me. This bitch was unreasonable to me and stole my things. I just wanted to teach her a lesson on behalf of my aunt, but she actually wanted to hit me. Such a bitch must not be allowed to stay."

Liang Hongwen looked down at her hand and struggled to get rid of it without making a sound. He took two steps into the yard and looked around. The maids and servants on the ground quickly stood up.

Liang Hongwen smiled, with a bit of casual and dandy air.

The old woman and the maid felt a little pain on their scalps and took two steps back.

Liang Hongwen looked at Zi Yi twice more, but saw her hiding behind him. This scene was seen by Li Xia with jealousy and resentment.

She glanced at her maid, who immediately stepped forward and said, "My Lord, this girl came to our courtyard last time and said she was delivering something to our cousin, but when she left, the girl's pearl necklace disappeared. We didn't dare to think about it, but when we searched her room today, we actually found this pearl necklace, hidden under her pillow."

As she said this, she took out the pearl necklace, as if to prove her words.

Pei Yi couldn't help but sneered, her voice was very light, but Liang Hongwen still heard it, and then looked at her again.

Pei Yi turned her head away slightly, not daring to look him in the eye, thinking to herself, it's true that if you want to accuse someone of a crime, you can always find a pretext for it.

I didn't even enter the door, how could I have stolen the pearl necklace?

Those two old women just now insisted on calling her out, I'm afraid they just wanted to frame her.

They say that to catch a thief, one must seize the stolen goods. The pearl necklace was not even found on her, but they still falsely accused her of stealing it.

It was really because the Pei family was simple-minded, and she rarely saw these clumsy tricks. Now that she saw them, she found them absurd and ridiculous, but she could do nothing about it.

It turns out that there are some people in this world who are so rude and direct when bullying their subordinates.

But Pei Yi still didn't understand why Li Xia attacked her.

Liang Hongwen looked at the pearl bracelet and asked the maid, "When was this necklace lost?"

The maid said that she was bitten to death yesterday evening and was lost when Zi Yi was delivering the silk flowers.

Liang Hongwen picked up the string of pearls with interest. "Miss Zi Yi, you were seriously injured while saving your mother, so you can't use incense. But you smell like ointment. Even if you found your pearl under her pillow, why is it that it doesn't smell like ointment, but instead smells like osmanthus hair oil?"

The maid was nervous and glanced at Li Xia uncomfortably.

Li Xia said hurriedly: "Maybe it's because the time is short and there is no time to get the unpleasant smell of the plaster."

"Oh?"

This attitude made Li Xia panic. "What does Brother Hongwen mean by this? Could it be that I have wronged her?"

Liang Hongwen smiled and said casually, "What are you talking about, sister? I understand that you are worried because you lost your pearl necklace, but sister may not know that Miss Ziyi was injured while saving my mother from falling into the water. The doctor said that she hurt her head. In order to treat her illness, a medicinal pillow was specially made for her. From last night to now, this string of pearls has been hidden under the pillow for a night. How could it not be stained with a trace of medicinal herb smell?

It seems that some people are bullying their masters. They dare not admit that they stole something, but instead framed others. Why don't I help my sister to interrogate this servant. It's better not to keep such a dishonest person around."

Liang Hongwen's face changed, and two servants directly arrested the maid in green. When the maid was caught, she panicked and said, "Prince, spare me, I don't know anything."

Liang Hongwen took a deep look at his cousin and without giving the maid a chance to speak again, he ordered the servants to drag her away.

Li Xia wanted to say a few words for her maid, but was stopped by Liang Hongwen. He stepped forward and stuffed the pearl necklace into her hand, whispering: "You are young, I am just a servant who is ignorant and indulges you to make trouble. But cousin, don't forget that this is the Pingxi Marquis Mansion. When you do things, you should know when to stop."
