"Then is Xie Liulang seriously injured?" Madam Lu asked quickly.
"I said my leg was broken due to the impact. I'm afraid I will be lame in the future." Zi Yan quickly replied.
Mr. Lu suddenly became anxious when he heard this.
"Although your brother didn't mean it, he hurt someone after all. Then Xie Liulang broke his leg again. I'm afraid it won't be easy to deal with the aftermath. At this time, your third uncle has not yet gone to the office. Your sixth uncle left the city today to handle some general affairs in Zhuangzi. I can't come back until dark, this..."
Mrs. Lu took Meng Shu's hand and said, "Mom, go and take a look first. You just came back from the palace. You are tired. You have a good rest in the house."
"Mother." Meng Shu shook her head gently: "Daughter, please go with you. My eldest brother has always been steady, how could he suddenly startle the horse? And Xie Liulang, did he really break his leg? How does my daughter feel about this? Something unusual?"
"Okay, let's go together!" With her daughter here, Ms. Lu felt more at ease.
As her three children grew up, Ms. Lu became accustomed to listening to her children.
When Meng Shu and her daughter arrived, Xie Liulang's mother, Hong, had already arrived.
The lady was pointing at Meng Yanxing with excitement, asking him to take responsibility, and also said cruel words. If her son's leg could not be cured and he was really lame, Meng Yanxing's leg would be broken as well.
Meng Yanxing was speechless when he heard this.
His horse was frightened, and it was Xie Yancheng who caused it. If the dandy hadn't fired an arrow in the street and hit the horse's leg, his horse wouldn't have been frightened and rushed forward, and naturally it wouldn't have hit Xie Yancheng.
This dandy was so ignorant that he was so frightened when he saw the horse rushing over that he didn't know how to dodge, so he was hit.
Besides, is his leg really lame?
He just saw Xie Yancheng lying on the ground, groaning, and not yelling. If he really had to break his leg, he would probably cry all over the place.
And... this place is quite far away from the Xie family, but the Xie family's eldest lady, Hong, came too quickly!
He was a decent man and it was not easy to argue with women in the street. Even though Mr. Hong said something unpleasant, Meng Yanxing did not say a word. Unexpectedly, Mr. Hong became more serious and pointed at Meng Yanxing and scolded her.
"You're such an ignorant kid, you actually commit murder on the street, and you bully people just because you're the heir apparent of the Duke's palace. If something bad happens to my son, I'll make the entire British Duke's family have no peace..."
When Mrs. Lu heard her scolding her son like this, she couldn't bear it anymore. She rushed over and stood in front of Mr. Hong: "Mrs. Xie is such a big formation. She brought so many people to surround my son. If he wants to break his legs and make the British government uneasy, I would like to ask who fired the arrow in the street first?"
On the way here, Mrs. Lu already knew the whole story from the boy who went back to report the news.
"Xie Yancheng actually fired an arrow at my son. Did he want to kill someone? If my son hadn't been alert and avoided it, the arrow would have hit a person instead of his horse." Mrs. Lu was also very angry. She spoke aggressively: "Mrs. Xie not only complained first, but also insulted my son like this. Do you want to go to the Jingzhao Mansion Yamen to argue with me?"
"Anyway, it's my son who's injured now. Does Mrs. Meng want to default on her debt?" Hong sneered.
Mrs. Lu was not anxious at all when she heard this. She glanced at Xie Yancheng who was lying not far away and suddenly smiled: "Mrs. Xie, if your sixth son really broke his leg, Mrs. He went back to his hometown to ask the imperial doctor to treat him, so how could he let him lie on the street for nearly half an hour? "
On the way here, her daughter told her that the matter was not as serious as it seemed, and that Xie Yancheng's leg was most likely not broken, so she should calm down.
"What do you mean, Mrs. Meng? Do you think we are blackmailing you? Our six men are lying on the ground and can't get up. How can this be a lie? Besides, we are the Duke of Cheng'en, is it necessary to blackmail you? You, the British Duke, are Do you want to default on your debt?"
Mrs. Hong raised her eyebrows as she spoke, and suddenly shouted loudly: "Everyone, come and take a look. The majestic government of the country hurts people but does not want to take responsibility. This is the style of the British government. It really bullies people. Take pity on my son. I broke my leg and was bullied..."
Hong is the Queen Mother's eldest sister-in-law. She married into the Xie family long before the Queen Mother entered the palace.
At that time, the head of the Xie family was only a sixth-rank official, and he had just been transferred to the capital and had no foundation.
This Hong married into the Xie family a few years ago, and her background was naturally more ordinary. She was just the daughter of a squire from a well-off family.
She didn't read many books, but she was fierce and famous in Beijing.
When Mrs. Lu saw her acting up and slandering them, she wanted to hit Mrs. Hong with two fists and hit her in the mouth until she was speechless.
What bothers her the most is people like this who are always shouting in the street.
Meng Shu, who was waiting and watching, walked over quickly. Her target was not the Hong family, but her son Xie Yancheng.
Xie Yancheng has been lying on the ground for a long time. His back aches and his butt hurts. He has long wanted to get up.
Seeing that his mother Hong had the upper hand, he couldn't help but smile on his face, but the next moment he saw a woman in purple coming towards him.
This woman's skin was as white as snow, her appearance was like that of a fairy, and her figure was stunning. Xie Yancheng was dumbfounded for a moment. Even the boy beside him forgot to stop her. Meng Shu just stood in front of Xie Yancheng.
"Xie Young Master, is your injury serious? My brother didn't hurt Young Master on purpose. I know a little bit about medical skills. I wonder if I can take a look at Young Master's injured left leg?" Meng Shu smiled like a flower and spoke softly.
Xie Yancheng looked at Meng Shu and said with a silly smile: "Yes... of course I can..."
He was about to ask the boy next to him to help him, but his mother Hong's urgent voice came to his ears: "Cheng'er!"
Xie Yancheng was slightly startled and turned to look at Meng Shu. He was about to say something when he found that Meng Shu was holding a needle in his hand.
Before he could react, the needle had already been flicked over by Meng Shu.
Meng Shu was really disgusted and didn't want to step forward to get the needle.
She had deep internal strength and excellent accuracy, and the silver needle instantly pierced Xie Yancheng's left leg.
"Ah..." Xie Yancheng let out a howl and jumped up from the ground. He jumped and shouted: "It hurts, it hurts. Quickly pull out this needle for me."
Several boys quickly knelt down to help.
After Meng Shu saw it, she snorted coldly, turned her head and looked at Hong who rushed over, with an indifferent expression.
"You shameless bastard, you actually seduced my son in the street, just to see if I don't smash your face." Hong's whole body was shaking with anger.
She knew her son was lustful, but she didn't expect him to be confused at this juncture.
There is also this witch who uses her beauty to confuse people. She is really not a good person.
"Crazy woman, you can't control your son, and you are always spouting excrement and slandering others. I don't think you should be a princess. Please come down as soon as possible and let Duke Cheng'en marry a good wife!" Lu Chong said He walked over and said sternly while protecting his daughter.
