Splendid peasant girl busy farming

The ugliness of the human heart

"It's very arrogant, then do you know who this girl is?"

Hongxiu looked at Ning Shanwen with ice-cold eyes.

She had come a long time ago, hiding in the shadows, seeing the previous ugly scene.

Ning Shanwen actually used these young girls to threaten Shen Biyu, and said that he would send them to Jiaosifang, which brought back bad memories for her.

She was sent to the priest's workshop in the same way, and she was filled with fear when she recalled the memory of that time.

At that time, she really had no way to go to heaven, and now she saw a similar scene happening in front of her eyes, how could she not feel compassion.

How could he have the slightest liking for Ning Shanwen?
"Who are you? A mere martial arts practitioner, so what? I am the son of Duke Ning, how dare you touch me?" Ning Shanwen let out a cold snort from his nostrils.

It was like this in the past, as long as he revealed his identity, he would be afraid.

Even if there is such a bold person, it is impossible to shoot him, unless it is a madman with a sick mind.

But looking at the girl in front of her, there was no hint of madness at all.

Therefore, he can conclude that the person in front of him is not a lunatic. If so, she should judge the situation.

"Snapped……"

But this time, he obviously guessed wrong. The crisp slap sound and the severe pain on his face made him realize that he had been beaten.

Moreover, he was beaten very hard, as if he had been hit by a big rock on the face.

The pain from the inside out made half of his face numb.

Because of this heavy blow, his body slipped from the chair and fell to the ground. The clean silk and satin clothes were covered with dust.

"You, you... dare to hit me!"

Ning Shanwen was a little slurred when speaking, he covered his mouth with his palm, and when he opened it again, a broken tooth appeared in his palm.

A slap to break the teeth, this is how strong it is, it is a monster.

But at this moment Ning Shanwen didn't have the heart to think about those things, he only knew that he was beaten.

That's okay, he was actually beaten, or by a woman, who would believe it?

"Beating you is light, we will settle this account slowly." Hongxiu sneered.

At this time, a group of horses hooves approached from near to far. With the sound of reining in the horses, each horse snorted, and figures in soldiers' clothes turned over and fell off the horses.

They were the ten hidden guards that Hongxiu dispatched through token demodulation. They were originally here to help out, but when they got off their horses and saw that the battle was over, they were not helping out but cleaning up the mess.

"Brothers, this new Prince of Ningguo, you should take him back to the dungeon and lock him up for a few days. After that, my wife will naturally make arrangements." Hongxiu said.

"Girl Hongxiu, don't worry, we will handle this matter properly. We will take away all the princes of Ningguo and others who are present." The leading knight saluted Hongxiu, then grabbed Ning Shanwen, before he could speak. As soon as he spoke, he slashed his neck with a knife, instantly knocking Ning Shanwen into a coma.

The hidden guards directly obeyed the emperor's arrangement, basically ignoring bureaucrats in other systems, let alone a prince who had no real power.

Ning Shanwen can show off his strength in front of Shen Biyu, a powerless and powerless civilian girl, but when encountering such a powerful government agency, the only way is to be arrested.

As for the reason, the hidden guards actually don’t need too many legitimate reasons to arrest people. They can arrest people just to see if something is wrong, but ordinary hidden guards don’t do this. If they don’t follow the orders from above and arrest people privately, that is also a felony.

However, arresting people this time is not arresting people privately, so they are not afraid of anything at all.

"Then I would like to thank a few big brothers."

The hidden guards nodded, and then they worked together to arrest more than a dozen people present, including Ning Shanwen, tied their hands, threw them on their horses, and galloped away.

After everything was settled, Hongxiu set his sights on Shen Biyu.

Shen Biyu had already put down the dagger in her hand, because she had held the dagger too hard with her fingers earlier, a wound had been cut by the blade, and a trace of dark red blood seeped out.

From the moment Hongxiu appeared, she had recognized Hongxiu.

When she was in Biyun Garden last time, she saw Hongxiu's appearance, and knew that she was Yang Ruoqing's personal maid, her name was maid, and she was actually similar to sisters.

Her appearance meant that this crisis was resolved by Yang Ruoqing.

Her heart became complicated. Who would have thought of how many so-called friends she had known for many years, many masters and celebrities in the industry, none of whom were reliable, and it turned out that Yang Ruoqing, who had only met once, saved her. How should I say this.

"Wait for me to say hello to Madam, but if there is an errand, please do so." Shen Biyu stepped forward to salute.

Her posture was very low. If it was someone who knew her before, they would never have imagined that the proud Shen family would bow their heads like this one day, or bow their heads willingly.

"Master Shen, you don't need to be like this. Madam still respects you very much. This time it was indeed a disaster. Ning Shanwen acted too recklessly." Hongxiu returned the courtesy.

"Madam captured Ning Shanwen this time, will she offend Ning Guogong because of me?" Shen Biyu asked anxiously.

Duke Ning is a very prestigious Duke in Daqi. The first generation of Duke Ning made great contributions to Daqi. If Yang Ruoqing further betrayed Ning Guogong because of her, she would feel even more uneasy.

"Don't worry, Madam has long been at odds with Ning Guogong. Many people in the capital know this, and Madam ordered this time."

Hongxiu paused and said: "Ma'am, what you mean is, Master Shen, you need to pack your luggage quickly, take your people, and follow me to a hidden courtyard to take shelter, and come out when needed."

"Okay, I'll pack up my things right away. There are only seven children left on my team. I'm hiring the rest. I dismissed them early and left."

Shen Biyu got the news one day earlier, so she made preparations, dismissed the hired helpers and others, and asked someone to take away the seven children, leaving her alone.

She herself was planning to die in front of Ning Shanwen.

Once she dies, maybe all the problems can be solved, at least those children can live incognito, and she has enough money.

Who knew that Ning Shanwen actually found them.

This shows that the person who entrusted them to take care of the children betrayed her trust and chose to sell these children to Ning Shanwen.

The human heart is really ugly.

"Girl Hongxiu, can I ask for one thing?" Shen Biyu hesitated for a while, and finally spoke.

"Just say whatever you want," Hongxiu said.

"If you can find someone named Zhu Cheng, you must let me meet." Shen Biyu gritted her teeth.

"Why is that?" Hongxiu asked in surprise.
