Chapter 221 My temper is like a mad dog
"Get up, what are you doing here? Why don't you just watch the show downstairs?" Mu Nanyan slowly spat out the melon seed shells in her mouth. If she didn't want to cause trouble, she wouldn't want to see these people.
"I am short-sighted. I failed to recognize the princess when she first came. The mansion was in chaos these days and I failed to pay my respects to the princess in time." Zhao Wujie knelt at the door without moving.
Mu Nanyan discovered that some people just deserve to be kneeled down. Only when they kneel down can their minds be clear. "Mr. Zhao, do you think it's fun to play dumb with me at this time? Hmm?"
"I don't know what the princess means by this." Zhao Wujie knelt on the ground with cold sweat pouring down his face. He cursed Song Jinyu a thousand times in his heart. No one told him that Princess Dingguo had such a strong background. She was the daughter of the prime minister and was appointed by the emperor. This did not include the position of princess. Any one of them could crush him to death.
"If you haven't figured it out, don't come to see me. Go back and think about it." Mu Nanyan winked, and Yuan Si picked up the man and threw him directly down the building. The noise was so loud that people who were watching the show on the street turned back frequently. After seeing the face of the man on the ground, they quickly turned around and continued watching.
Not long after Zhao Wujie was thrown down, he disappeared.
Mu Nanyan ordered some cakes and was about to enjoy them when the door rang again, "Knock knock--"
"I, Zhang Xuan, pay my respects to Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
Tsk, here comes another one looking for death, "Yuan Si, open the door."
The sun outside was getting stronger and stronger, and Song Qingyan's face was greasy from the sun. "Let someone hold an umbrella for City Lord Song. This is the person I chose, and I have to protect him well."
Zhang Xuan knelt in the same position at the door. Mu Nanyan did not avoid him when she spoke. She was speaking to him. It was said that Zhang Xuan was from the largest family in Jiangcheng. Even when Song Jinyu was around, he had to look at his face. That proved that he could enter and leave the city at will. Naturally, he had heard the rumors about her. Even so, he had never come to find her. Isn't this a provocation? It seems that one of the people arrested this time is his eldest son.
It really proves the old saying, like roots you will see like sprouts.
Mu Nanyan picked up the spoon, scooped off a small piece of cake and put it in her mouth, ignoring him. It would not be illegal even if she dragged him out and beheaded him now.
Zhang Xuan knelt straight with no intention of bowing. His pride over the years could not be changed overnight. "I, Zhang Xuan, pay my respects to Her Royal Highness the Princess."
Zhang Xuan hadn't knelt before anyone for a long time, and he couldn't stand it after just a few minutes. The princess didn't say anything, and it was obvious that she wanted to coerce him.
Mu Nanyan said impatiently: "I heard it, do you think I'm deaf?"
"I felt that my voice was too soft the first time, so I shouted again." Zhang Xuan had no intention of bending down at all.
Mu Nanyan didn't like bullying like this either. She would only use her strength to shut these people up. "Come in, and take a seat."
Zhang Xuan sneered in his heart. It seemed that the legend was just like that. Princess Dingguo was probably just a legend.
Mu Nanyan naturally noticed his little expressions. Yuan Si moved the stool to a place that was neither too far nor too close to her according to Mu Nanyan's instructions. She could reach it easily whenever she wanted, which would be convenient for her to beat people, not to educate a disobedient dog.
Zhang Xuan sat down with airs, in his heart he always felt that he was superior to others, even when Song Jinyu was the city lord. In the past, many rules were thought up by him, and he was the one who did some business. Song Jinyu had to look at his face here. Now that the princess was here, Jiangcheng's economy was in recession, if he offended him, Jiangcheng's business would be cut off.
Mu Nanyan put down the spoon and said, "Master Zhang, right?"
"It's me." Zhang Xuan straightened his body again. Looking closer, he found the princess to be a real beauty. No wonder Prince Li fell in love with her. It was a pity, otherwise it would have been great to take her back to his palace and have her as a concubine.
Mu Nanyan asked: "Why did Patriarch Zhang come to see me today?"
Zhang Xuan stood up, stretched out his hand and leaned forward, "Don't be afraid of being laughed at by the princess. My son loves to play the most in his life. He has been to Jiangyan Tower for several days and has not returned. This morning, I checked and found that he was taken away by the princess's people. This child is very naughty and no one can control him. Please send him back to the mansion. I will personally discipline him and will not let him cause any more trouble."
This man is too shameless. She hasn't even come to settle accounts with him yet, but he came to her door. After all, she is a princess, and he dared to order her around. His son made a mistake and was put in jail, but he still wanted her to send him back personally! Does she have no dignity?
Mu Nanyan suppressed her anger and said, "Master Zhang, please take a seat first. I heard that half of Jiangyan Tower belongs to the Zhang family. Look at how embarrassed this madam is. I just want to give him some prestige for Qingyan's sake."
Zhang Xuan sat down, feeling more relieved, but he did not admit what Mu Nanyan said, "Princess, you have wronged me. The Zhang family will not get involved in this kind of business."
"Really?" Mu Nanyan flexed her wrists. "I knew it wouldn't be that easy. I can't trick him. I'm still far from Jun Zhuoyuan. Forget it. It sounds aggrieved and it's aggrieved for everyone to see. It doesn't fit my character and personality."
With a clang, Zhang Xuan didn't even realize that he was already in the sky. Mu Nanyue grabbed the back of his collar, and a gust of wind and lightning brought him to the stage. It happened that the old procuress couldn't bear it anymore and died at this moment.
With a thud, Zhang Xuan felt dizzy and before he could react, he was exposed to the sun. Suddenly, a feeling of discomfort spread throughout his body.
Upon seeing this, Song Qingyan immediately stood up and walked to the stage, and asked someone to carry the body of the madam back first, and then someone came up to clean the floor.
"Miss, what's going on..." Song Qingyan looked at Zhang Xuan lying on the ground and already had a guess in her mind.
"You're just in time! Get me an umbrella! It's too hot." Mu Nanyan fanned herself with paper, but it didn't help the heat that kept coming back to her.
Song Qingyan found a stool for her to sit on and stood behind her holding an umbrella for her. Halfway through, Zhang Xuan reacted and wanted to get up and leave the stage, but Mu Nanyan broke his legs without saying a word, "How dare you move here? Master Zhang, you have never heard of my temper. To be honest, my temper is like that of a mad dog. You'd better not mess with me."
Zhang Xuan was in so much pain that he broke out in a cold sweat, and his hypocritical smile disappeared from his face. "Return to me, princess. If I give you face, you are a princess. If I don't give you face, then what are you? Without me, Song Jinyu in Jiangcheng will be the only heaven."
"Tsk, I don't like what you said. How dare you snatch from me? Where do you get the confidence?" The thing Mu Nanyan hates most is when someone touches her things. Since Jiangcheng is her fiefdom, it naturally belongs to her.
Zhang Xuan straightened his upper body and said, "Why? All the officials of the noble families in Jiangcheng are in my hands. If you don't bow to me, you will have nothing. Where will Jiangcheng get the money without me?"
"So I have to thank you for that. If you hadn't said that, I would have no reason to punish them. The people are all here today. Zhang Xuan openly disobeyed, which is a capital crime. And the accomplices he mentioned will also be punished." Mu Nanyan waved her fan with a smile on her face. She was having a headache because there were too many people and she needed to think of many excuses to deal with them. It was very troublesome. Zhang Xuan was really a good enemy. He directly brought his accomplices to her.
"Have you ever thought about what will happen to Jiangcheng in the future if these people are punished? How do you let these people live? Forget about these. Do you think His Majesty will let you do this? We are all people of the court, and naturally his Majesty's people. The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics. Even if you are a princess, you have no right to punish us." Zhang Xuan said angrily. This bitch actually wanted to catch them all in one fell swoop.
"Really? Yuan Er, bring the imperial edict to him and let him see what our father has instructed." Mu Nanyan leaned back. Her waist felt a little uncomfortable after sitting for a long time. She suddenly missed Jun Zhuoyuan a little.
"How is this possible! This..." Zhang Xuan held the imperial edict in disbelief. For so many years, even the princess born to the queen had not received such treatment. How could it be possible for her, the daughter of the prime minister? Could it be because of Prince Li?
"Nothing is impossible. As long as you work hard, it might really come true. Today, the madam is punished to restore peace to Jiangcheng, and also to clear City Lord Song's name and give him justice. Jiangyan Tower is ostensibly City Lord Song's property, but in fact it was opened together by these noble families and Song Jinyu. I think many people know what kind of person City Lord Song is."
Mu Nanyan stood in the center of the stage with a loudspeaker in her hand. Some people below were curious about what she was holding, while others only cared about what she said.
"Since I am determined to punish them, don't be afraid of the follow-up matters. With City Lord Song and I in Jiangcheng, things will only get better and better. Now that the evidence has been collected, everyone just needs to go back and wait for news. City Lord Song will definitely give everyone a satisfactory answer."
Mu Nanyan put away the loudspeaker, which she had taken out from the space the night before and had asked someone to hold it to avoid being exposed.
