Reborn to be replaced? Remarried to the royal palace, raising children and training husband
Chapter 59 Redress of grievances
The clerk who followed the shopkeeper followed closely and echoed:
"That's right. I don't know where this little beggar came from, but he dared to cheat people by holding a carrot and pretending it was a precious wild ginseng! Fortunately, our shopkeeper is kind-hearted, otherwise you would never have the chance to enjoy yourself here!"
"Not only that, do you know who this big tree behind Taibai Tower belongs to? It's the noble Prince Duan! If you anger our master, how can you survive?"
When the young man heard this, he was furious, his whole body trembling like grass in the wind, his eyes staring at Yang and others as sharp as a hungry wolf, and he said in a sonorous and powerful voice:
"Prince Duan? Even if he is the Prince of Duan, how can he allow his servants to run rampant? I want to personally go to Prince Duan to have a discussion and see if he really deserves the respect of the people!"
The boy originally thought that he was lucky on this trip and that the wild ginseng he obtained was enough to support his family's financial difficulties.
However, he never expected that Taibai Tower had set a trap to lure him into handing over the wild ginseng, but now it refuses to admit it!
If he couldn't exchange the silver, how would his sick sister survive? Even if he died, how could he face his parents in the afterlife?
The young man's words angered Shopkeeper Yang. His fat body trembled with anger and he said angrily:
"Well, well, well, you naughty fellow, you are so eloquent, how dare you slander Prince Duan! You are so ignorant! Beat me! Beat me hard! Beat this ignorant brat to death!"
"As you command! Boss!"
Before he finished speaking, the servants behind Manager Yang responded in unison and rushed forward, ready to attack the young man.
"stop."
A cold and majestic voice suddenly sounded, and then a figure dressed in emerald green clothes flashed like a gust of wind.
Before the servants' hands could touch the young man, they were knocked to the ground by an invisible force!
The figure was extremely agile, with the sword in his hand still unsheathed, but he defeated everyone with just the sheath.
"what!"
"It hurts!"
In a flash, the dozen or so servants were lying on the ground in agony, rolling over and wailing while holding their injured parts.
With a "clang" sound, the long sword was finally unsheathed, and the blade was pressed tightly against the neck of Shopkeeper Yang who was trying to escape.
Shopkeeper Yang raised his hands high, his face as pale as paper. Just as he was about to speak, he heard that cold voice again:
"I would like to ask, how can a small shopkeeper like you dare to represent Prince Duan's Mansion and Prince Duan himself?"
Shopkeeper Yang looked in the direction of the voice and saw a gorgeous woman dressed in a lilac-colored satin dress with gold and silver Ruyi cloud patterns. She exuded a noble and inviolable aura.
Gu Qinlan stared at Shopkeeper Yang with a cold gaze, his face as gloomy as water.
Shopkeeper Yang's heart was beating like a drum under the pressure of this power. He swallowed hard and said calmly:
"Our Taibai Tower is the property of Prince Duan's Mansion. I... I don't care who you are, I advise you not to meddle in other people's business! Otherwise, if you anger Prince Duan, you won't be able to bear the terrible consequences!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Qinlan smiled lightly, and the murderous intent in his eyes became even stronger!
Gu Qinlan knew very well that the reason they dared to be so arrogant was entirely because they relied on the power of Prince Duan’s Mansion!
However, because of this, Gu Qinlan's anger became even stronger. She said in a firm and angry tone:
"Consequences? What you mean by consequences is that you use the name of Prince Duan to oppress the innocent?"
"Or is it the result of you destroying Prince Duan's reputation for your own selfish reasons?"
"You keep saying that you have Prince Duan as your backer, but you don't know that Prince Duan's real backers are precisely these so-called common people in your eyes!"
"When one general succeeds, thousands of men die! The title of Prince Duan is not just the glory of Prince Duan alone. It is the glorious title forged by countless brave men who sacrificed their lives for the Western Wei Dynasty with their blood, lives, and loyal bones!"
Is it Zheng Dinglian who is the only one respected by the people present?
What they admired were the brave warriors represented by Zheng Dinglian who sacrificed their flesh and blood to buy peace for the Western Wei Dynasty!
This flag will never allow despicable people to use it to bully innocent people!
Although Gu Qinlan is a woman, she knows very well that, whether in her past life or this life, if it were not for Zheng Dinglian and those fearless soldiers who sacrificed their lives to protect peace, how could she have the peaceful life she has today?
The trivial disputes between houses seem so insignificant in the face of national justice!
Therefore, when Gu Qinlan saw that Manager Yang dared to take this opportunity to tarnish the honor that Zheng Dinglian had earned with his life, how could she not be filled with indignation?
A thousand-mile embankment is destroyed by an ant hole. Zheng Dinglian's meritorious service is outstanding. If these vicious rumors were to reach the emperor's ears, how much harm would they cause to him if they accumulated over a long period of time?
When Gu Qinlan made these remarks, many onlookers had gathered around.
Originally, everyone was already indignant about what Taibai Tower had done.
On weekdays, Taibai Tower looked down on common people like them from a high position.
Even if they didn't know the details of what happened today, they could still guess that the young man was wronged!
It’s just because Taibai Tower is the property of Prince Duan’s Mansion, so everyone is neither brave enough nor willing to show it off.
Because of this, Manager Yang of Taibai Tower became more and more arrogant and domineering.
However, Gu Qinlan's words instantly aroused resonance in everyone's hearts, making them excited, as if their blood was boiling!
"Good! Well said! These scums who disregard the reputation of being loyal officials and harm the people should be punished!"
"That's right! Prince Duan's achievements belong to Prince Duan. What does it have to do with you, a fox who is just taking advantage of the power of the tiger?"
"Even if it really comes to the attention of Prince Duan, I don't believe that Prince Duan will favor a hypocritical person like you!"
"That's right! Prince Duan is the God of War of our Western Wei! If he knew that you, a two-faced lackey, are so tactful, he would definitely not let you off easily!"
When Gu Qinlan heard the voices of the people around her, her expression eased slightly.
She secretly thanked her luck that things had not yet deteriorated to the point where they were irreversible, otherwise, the people might have already ignored Zheng Dinglian's achievements without knowing right from wrong.
Shopkeeper Yang had not expected that things would develop to this extent. He could not help but feel a little flustered. He quickly changed his tone and said to Gu Qinlan in a flattering manner:
"Madam, you don't have to be so serious. I think there must be a misunderstanding in this matter... Why don't we go into Taibai Tower and discuss it in detail?"
After listening to what Manager Yang said, Gu Qinlan realized that this old fox had begun to retreat and planned to use money to avoid disaster.
She glanced at Shopkeeper Yang with a deep gaze, but before she could speak, the young man next to her interrupted eagerly.
The young man knew very well that whether he could get the precious wild ginseng back now depended on Gu Qinlan's decision!
If Gu Qinlan was really invited into the building by Manager Yang, he was worried that she might be persuaded, and then he would have nowhere to appeal!
The boy immediately retorted:
"Where is the misunderstanding? My wild ginseng was carefully escorted all the way here, and everyone saw it with their own eyes! I originally planned to sell it to the herbal medicine shop, but you lured me here, claiming that you would give a higher price! What happened?"
The boy became more and more excited, his face flushed with anger, and continued:
"As a result, you actually replaced my wild ginseng with carrots and accused me of fraud! If I hadn't been greedy, how could I have fallen into your trap?"
