Marry a Duke

Chapter 6 I'm Really Wronged

The servant in the Grand Tutor's Mansion was quite friendly and didn't put on airs. She successfully brought the sobering soup.

When we arrived at the main hall, Nanny Qiu was not there.

Fu Ran hesitated for a long time outside. Since Nanny Qiu was not here, did she have to bring the sobering soup inside?

The steward of the Grand Tutor's Mansion looked at the clothes she was wearing and found that they were clothes that belonged to a maid in the *** Mansion.

"But the sobering soup?"

"Yes."

"Madame Qiu has gone to do something for ***. Now that the sobering soup has been served, please bring it in to ***. Don't let it get cold." After saying that, he left.

Fu Ran stared at his back for a while. Now, even if he wanted him to help him get it inside, it was impossible.

She had no choice but to send it in herself, muttering in her heart about Qingzhu's unprofessionalism. When it was time to work, she couldn't find him.

The main hall was quite large and there were many people sitting there. The old Grand Tutor Huo, who was sitting at the first seat, was quite old and had an air of an immortal.

Sitting in the first seat with Grand Tutor Huo was ***.

On the left and right sides there are two princes, the Duke of Wei, and a group of ministers, all of whom are powerful people in the court.

She walked steadily towards the palace. If she was impolite in front of so many distinguished people, she would lose face for the palace.

She couldn't afford it.

"***, the hangover soup is here." She walked closer to *** and whispered, her voice was so low that only *** could hear it.

*** glanced at her and nodded.

Fu Ran carefully placed the porcelain bowl aside without attracting anyone's attention.

Master Huo was still talking, and the others echoed him.

The mission was accomplished, and Fu Ran breathed a sigh of relief. He then straightened his back and slowly stepped aside.

When he raised his eyes, he met the dark eyes of Duke Weiguo in front of him, which were filled with a bit of hostility.

She took a breath and swallowed secretly.

Retreat quietly.

*** was very generous. Today was the Grand Tutor's birthday, and she toasted him several times. The Duke of England was afraid that she would have a headache after drinking, so he ordered people to prepare sobering soup in advance.

As soon as Fu Ran retreated to the main hall, Nanny Qiu came back and saw that she had nothing in her hands.

Then he asked, "Has the hangover soup been delivered?"

Fu Ran nodded, "It has been sent in."

Nanny Qiu glanced at her and said nothing more.

Not long after, there was a burst of noise coming from the backyard. Someone passed a message that the women in the backyard were making a fuss.

After some investigation, I found out that it was Princess Ruhui who was causing trouble again.

It is Grand Tutor Huo’s 70th birthday, but his wife has passed away for many years. Now the person in charge of the household is Grand Tutor Huo’s eldest daughter-in-law, Madam Huo.

This Madam Huo is not the original wife. The first wife of the master of the Huo family died of complications during childbirth in her early years, and he later remarried. The wife was not of high birth. When entertaining Princess Ruhui today, the princess despised her background.

Everyone knew that Master Huo was an easy-going person who never cared about his background. At the Huo family banquet, Madam Huo was so disdained that she was embarrassed.

As a result, Mrs. Huo's best friend started quarreling with the princess, and somehow they started fighting again.

The backyard is in chaos now.

Master Huo was terribly shocked when he heard this, and he even glanced at Nanny Qiu countless times. Nanny Qiu sent Fu Ran to the backyard to check out the situation first.

Master Huo and a group of people also went to the backyard. Now that this kind of thing had happened, there was no need to distinguish between male and female guests.

Princess Ruhui has been spoiled since she was a child. She is proud of her noble birth and looks down on everyone. Madam Huo was first kind to the young lady from the aristocratic family whom she disliked the most, and then came to entertain her. She was already unhappy about this.

The words were inappropriate and directly offended Princess Ruhui.

The princess showed her power, and Hongzhao and Hongxiu helped to fight together. Even Qingzhu joined the battle camp. The person they fought was none other than the wife of General Cheng, who had won military merit in a week-long battle with the Duke of Weiguo.

General Cheng's wife knew some martial arts skills, and the four people on the princess' side didn't get any advantage at all. The princess even fell down because of the crowding.

The scene was indeed very chaotic. Fu Ran couldn't tell who was who. He only knew that the princess was injured and the *** must be furious.

She had no choice but to go over and support the princess.

"My Lady, are you okay?"

Snapped--

A loud slap landed directly on Fu Ran's face, causing her face to feel burning pain and her mind to feel fuzzy.

She had never been beaten like this in her previous life. She never hit people in the face. If it had happened in her previous life, she would have torn the other person to pieces.

"Who hit you? Ji, you dared to hit my people in the mansion and pushed me. You are so bold." Princess Ruhui saw that more and more people were watching.

I know I'm in trouble again today.

Taking advantage of the fact that more and more people came and the situation became more chaotic, Princess Ruhui thought of passing on the blame again, and this time it was Fu Ran who was in trouble again.

The slap was so strong that half of her face was swollen.

Ruhui also pinned the blame on General Cheng's wife, Ji. Ji naturally refused to admit it. There were so many people watching, and she was more than ten steps away from the maid, so how could she beat her?

"Tell me, was it she who did it?" Ruhui stared at Fu Ran with her beautiful eyes filled with fire.

What the hell are you talking about? It was you who did it and you're blaming it on others.

"It was chaotic just now, and for a moment I didn't see clearly who hit me." She had to swallow the anger, which was so hard to swallow.

"I beg my lady to seek justice for me." She lowered her head and said indifferently.

Ruhui was very satisfied with her sensible attitude, "Don't worry, this princess will definitely do justice for you."

When Master Huo and the empress arrived, they saw this scene of strife, with the husband saying that he was right and the wife saying that she was right.

*** ordered General Cheng's wife Ji, Fu Ran and several other people involved to be taken away, and the rest of the people continued.

"Today is Grand Tutor Huo's birthday. I will never allow anyone to ruin Grand Tutor Huo's mood. I will give everyone an explanation for what happened today."

Fu Ran was not naive enough to think that she would be fine if *** took action. This matter was started by the princess. If the princess was to be removed from it, the *** mansion had to keep quiet.

She has to take the blame again.

Ji is the wife of General Cheng. This time, General Cheng served as a vanguard general and made great contributions. The emperor has rewarded him handsomely and promoted him to a higher rank.

No one would give General Cheng face at this time, except the ignorant Ruhui.

Fu Ran was a servant and did not stay with Madam Cheng.

The room was not big, the light was not enough, and there was no one inside. Fu Ran tried a few times, but the door was locked from the outside and the window could not be opened.

Seeing that she couldn't leave and her face was burning with pain, Fu Ran had no choice but to sit on the ground and wait for someone to come find her.

A quarter of an hour later, the door opened.

There was a tall figure standing facing the light. The sudden light was a bit dazzling, and Fu Ran squinted his eyes.

The next moment, she was picked up by Bian.

"I'm not polite when I see the Duke."

Fu Ran knelt on the ground and bowed deeply.

Fu Ran cherishes his life and doesn't want to die in confusion.

"Duke, I am innocent. I did nothing, but I was beaten like this." She stood up and raised her head, only to be confronted with a man with one side of his face higher than the other.

Bian burst out laughing.

Fu Ran gave him a sad look.

People, you really have no sympathy at all.
