Rebirth: The paranoid war king was controlled by the crazy female protagonist

"How long?"

Xiao Wenshu was puzzled, but listened to him continue.

"I've been here for more than half a year. How much has she concealed and how much has she deceived me..."

"Since she is not sure whether she will obey, we have to lock her up until...she obeys." He was the same as always, but his voice was like a wolf that could devour everything.

Xiao Wenshu sensed helplessness in this cold tone.

"Brother! Please give Qingyu another chance...Qingyu will definitely..."

"Wenshu!" he suddenly raised his voice and tightened his grip on the booklet.

"If you plead for her again, you will go back to the barracks!"

After being scolded by him, Xiao Wenshu immediately shut up and lowered his head, "Yes."

It was not until Xiao Wenshu left that the room became quiet again.

It was obviously painful, and he obviously didn't know what to do. He was afraid that she would run away, that she would lie to him again, and that he would hurt her out of anger. Ultimately, he wanted to catch her.

Xiao Wenshu ran to Qingyu's door and wanted to go in but was stopped by the guards.

"Prince, please don't embarrass us..."

"Your Highness has given the order."

But Xiao Wenshu kept calling her name outside the door. It was a long time before he heard a faint voice coming from inside.

"Wen Shu."

"Qing Yu!" Hearing her response, Xiao Wenshu quickly leaned against the door.

"What happened? Tell me! Otherwise I can't help you, Qingyu!"

There was silence for a moment, "I'm fine, don't worry."

"Qingyu, can you please not be like this?" Xiao Wenshu could tell that her weak voice was weaker than ever before.

But after he said this, there was no response from inside. No matter how he shouted, there was only silence.

In Yongqing City today, rumors are spreading everywhere like the breeze.

"I heard that the princess was beaten up a few days ago, and it was someone who rushed into the house who beat her up."

"Now the princess has a gentle temperament. If she is not an acquaintance, who would dare to be rude to her? I heard that His Majesty has gone. Could it be that someone from the Jiang family beat her?"

"Someone saw it, it seemed to be someone from the Jiang family..."

In just half a day, the news spread to everyone, and the final target was still everyone in the Jiang family.

In the afternoon, Jiang Zhuo was summoned to the palace.

"Your Majesty, this old minister pays homage." Jiang Zhuo knelt on the ground in fear, looking like he was trying to remain calm but seemed to have been wronged.

"Lord Jiang, you should know why I want to see you here." Xiao Yanzhou's eyes were cold and blazing, like a bottomless cave.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Jiang Zhuo carefully watched Xiao Yanzhou's expression and didn't even ask him to stand up.

"Did you know that something happened to Xiao Yu?" Xiao Yanzhou asked tentatively. His domineering aura could not conceal his anger.

"This... I have heard about it, but I am not clear about the situation... I wanted to ask Qing Yu, but before I could... I received an imperial decree from His Majesty."

Hearing Jiang Zhuo's deliberate excuse, Xiao Yanzhou felt furious.

This cunning old fox was clearly trying to test whether he knew the truth, but he had no intention of exposing him.

"Xiao Yu was injured yesterday. Before I rushed over, those people had already left."

"Qing Yu is really injured?!" Jiang Zhuo widened his eyes, looking terrified and worried, as if he was completely unaware of the situation.

Xiao Yanzhou straightened his lips, and the murderous intent in his pupils emanated a manic cold light, corroding everything around him.

"I remind you again that the people I saw leaving before I came were from the Jiang Mansion."

"Lord Jiang, you really don't know?" Every word in his words seemed to be filled with power, and this was already giving Jiang Zhuo a last chance to defend himself.

Jiang Zhuo only now realized that the matter was more serious than he had imagined.

He lowered his eyes and thought hard, then he took a deep breath and explained, "Mo'er and Qingyu had some quarrels before, I guess this matter got a little out of hand... and made His Majesty worry about my daughter."

Xiao Yanzhou frowned, his brows mixed with disdain, "Master Jiang thinks this is a trivial matter?"

He couldn't help but secretly mock in his heart that Jiang Zhuo actually put the blame on Jiang Mo for this matter.

"Your Majesty, you may not know that Mo'er, as an elder brother, has always been strict with Qingyu. Qingyu has been naughty since he was young, so it is inevitable that children will fight and make noises. This old minister will definitely teach Mo'er, and I hope Your Majesty..."

"Lord Jiang." Xiao Yanzhou suddenly interrupted.

"I have to say something first. I don't know how you treat Xiao Yu, but to me, she is my most beloved sister."

"I have granted her special permission to be free from any rules and to do whatever she wants. I will not tolerate anyone bullying her, no matter what the reason." His face was ashen and his eyes were like torches. If it were anyone else, he would have died long ago.

"Yes, Your Majesty is right." Jiang Zhuo lowered his head and responded submissively.

"I feel really bad for Xiao Yu's injured face. What do you think, Lord Jiang, should we do about this?"

"This..." Jiang Zhuo was stunned. He looked up suddenly, met that cold gaze, and then quickly lowered his head again.

He finally understood how important Jiang Qingyu was to the person in front of him.

"Your Majesty...I will definitely take Mo'er to apologize to his sister."

"Is that all? I asked Xiaoyu, but she refused to say anything. Even the doctor was afraid to see her... It seems that Lord Jiang loves your son more than your daughter."

Jiang Zhuo gritted his teeth and spoke before he could think of a countermeasure.

"Go, call Jiang Mo over. I want to see how he behaves as a brother."

"It's Your Majesty."

Jiang Zhuo just knelt on the ground until Jiang Mo was brought up by He Yi.

"Jiang Mo pays respect to His Majesty." Jiang Mo knelt down, looking at his father beside him with panicked eyes.

"Jiang Mo, why did you teach Xiao Yu a lesson that day?"

The emperor's intimidation made Jiang Mo breathless, and he didn't understand the meaning of this sentence at all. He could only look at his father helplessly.

"What do you see your father doing? Did your father ask you to do it?"

Jiang Mo's face was filled with panic, as if he understood something, "No... No, Your Majesty, Jiang Mo did it himself."

"Give me a reasonable reason why you beat Xiao Yu?"

Jiang Mo reacted completely and continued, "Jiang Qingyu is ignorant, so as a brother, I should discipline him, so..."

"Jiang Mo! Admit your mistake now!" Jiang Zhuo roared in a sudden voice, and Jiang Mo was shocked.

"Yes, Jiang Mo was too strict with my sister. Jiang Mo knows he was wrong."

Xiao Yanzhou didn't seem to be in the mood to let them continue acting here.

"What do you think we should do, Lord Jiang?"

“We should…educate and treat everyone equally.”

"Then let's get started."

After hesitating, Jiang Zhuo slowly stood up.

"If Lord Jiang can't do it, you can let He Yi do it for you."

"Or, Jiang Mo, if you feel wronged, you can tell me the truth. I want to see what happened that made Xiao Yu bear this injustice."

"Snapped!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a deafening slap landed on Jiang Mo's face.

Jiang Mo widened his eyes and looked at his father in shock.

It seemed as if he was questioning his father with his eyes, why? But the moment his eyes met, he understood.

Lower your eyes, grit your teeth, and welcome it.

After that, two more slaps landed on his left and right cheeks one after another.

Jiang Zhuo turned around and knelt down, "Your Majesty, I will definitely ask Mo'er to apologize to Qing Yu. I hope Your Majesty..."

"No need for that in the next few days. Xiao Yu probably doesn't want to see you either."

"Jiang Mo, I tell you again, the mansion was given by me, and the title was also conferred by me. Even if you want to see her, you must inform her in advance instead of bringing people in."

"If I learn of this again, I will order punishment."

"Yes, Jiang Mo understands." Jiang Mo quickly accepted the order.

"Go down."

Xiao Yanzhou stared at their backs. He didn't expect Jiang Zhuo to be even more despicable than he imagined. One could imagine what kind of life Xiao Yu led in the Jiang Mansion.
