Chapter 2177: The Trouble at Liu Mansion
"You bastard, how did you coerce Ah Chu? Come out, bastard."
"I will never let Ah Chu marry you!"
At this moment, Xiao Jingheng no longer looked like a nobleman. He was filled with anger and was making a scene at the gate of Liu's residence. No one knew how long he had been making such a scene.
Finally, the door of the Liu Mansion opened, and Liu Mochen walked out, looking at Xiao Jingheng with a frown. Before he could say anything, Xiao Jingheng rushed up and punched him in the eye.
"Liu Mochen, you deserve to die."
"Crazy, someone, pull this lunatic away."
The guards of the Liu Mansion quickly pulled the two people apart. After such a commotion, many people around immediately looked over and started talking about it.
There were several marks on Liu Mochen's face. He touched his cheek and said angrily, "Xiao Jingheng, why are you crazy again for no reason?"
"Incomprehensible? Ha, Liu Mochen, don't you know what you did?" Xiao Jingheng glared at him. If the guards of the Liu Mansion had not stopped him, he would have rushed up to hit him.
Seeing Xiao Jingheng like this, Liu Mochen pursed his lips. He had just heard what Xiao Jingheng had shouted and had some vague guesses in his mind.
Seeing so many people in front of the mansion, he raised his head and took the initiative to admit: "Yes, everyone, I am Liu Mochen, and I will marry the county magistrate's daughter, Miss Shangguan. After the date is set, everyone can come and have a drink and ask for good luck."
Liu Mochen was very open and frank in inviting people to his wedding banquet, which surprised everyone.
"Master Liu has really changed his character. He actually invited us."
"Haven't you heard that Master Liu is deeply in love with Miss Shangguan and dotes on her like the apple of his eye?"
"Didn't you say before that the two of them were not getting along?"
"Those are all rumors. They are about to get married."
Everyone was talking about it. It was noon and the streets were already busy. After this incident, everyone chatted even more happily. It didn't take long before the news spread.
Liu Mochen was very satisfied with this. He glanced at Xiao Jingheng, closed the door without hesitation, and left. Xiao Jingheng was so angry that he smashed things at the door of Liu's house.
Eventually, he was caught by the Xiao family, and the farce came to an end.
After returning to the Xiao family, Xiao Jingheng hid in his room, refusing to come out, eating or drinking, until the evening of the next day, when he opened the door.
Under Mrs. Xiao's worried gaze, Xiao Jingheng murmured to himself: "I want to find out the truth and clear my name. In this way, Ah Chu will not give up on me."
"My dear Heng'er, please stop messing around. Shangguan Chu is not worth it." Mrs. Xiao tried to pull him, but he pushed her away.
When he came to his senses, Xiao Jingheng had disappeared. In order to prove his innocence, he ran around and secretly investigated Chen Luoluo's pregnancy.
After a sleepless whole day, he finally found the doctor who was bribed by Chen Luoluo on the next day. Xiao Jingheng blocked the doctor's way home. When he saw the target, he was not polite and drew his sword to put it against the man's neck.
"Tell me, what's going on with the baby in Chen Luoluo's belly?" Xiao Jingheng's tone was cold. The moonlight reflected on the sword, emitting a cold light.
The doctor was startled and trembled as he tried to play dumb: "You, what are you talking about? I don't understand."
"Can't understand?"
Xiao Jingheng sneered, and the sword moved one step closer, piercing the doctor's flesh, blood flowing out, and his voice seemed to be stained with blood.
"I don't have the patience to waste time with you. If you don't tell me, I will kill you and then kill all your relatives in the house, your wife, children, parents, nephews and nieces..."
"No...don't." The doctor was anxious and looked at him pleadingly: "Don't hurt my family, I will tell you everything."
"explain."
At every word Xiao Jingheng said, the doctor's calves trembled and he swallowed nervously, but he still finished his words tremblingly.
"Chen Luoluo, Chen Luoluo is not pregnant. She just wrapped her belly with cloth to disguise it. She asked me to help her lie and trick the young master of the Xiao family into marrying her."
The lives of his family were at stake, so the doctor suddenly couldn't care about anything else and killed Chen Luoluo completely.
Hearing these words, Xiao Jingheng's sinister expression suddenly brightened up and he smiled happily. He took the doctor and went to find Shangguan Chu to make everything public.
"When we get to the county magistrate's mansion, repeat what you just said to me." Xiao Jingheng reminded him. Although the doctor didn't understand, he still nodded.
He was really scared and didn't want his family to get hurt.
Xiao Jingheng happily took the evidence to see Shangguan Chu, thinking that the misunderstanding would be resolved, but when he arrived at the county magistrate's mansion, he was turned away.
"Mr. Xiao, my young lady is currently negotiating a wedding date with Mr. Liu, and is unable to spare time to meet guests. Please go back, Mr. Xiao." The doorman respectfully made a gesture of invitation to Xiao Jingheng.
But these words made Xiao Jingheng anxious.
"I need to see Ah Chu, please get out of the way." He grabbed the doctor and tried to force his way in, shouting, "Ah Chu, it's me, please see me."
Excited shouts echoed in every corner of the county magistrate's mansion, but still failed to call Shangguan Chu over. Instead, they attracted Liu Mochen.
"Xiao Jingheng." He stood on the steps, looking down at Xiao Jingheng, and said in a serious tone: "A Chu and I are in love with each other, don't be obsessed anymore."
"If you really love her, you should let her go instead of forcing her like this."
As soon as these words were spoken, Xiao Jingheng's eyes suddenly turned red. He was filled with grief and anger, but he could do nothing. Seeing the heavily guarded county magistrate's mansion, he finally lowered his head and left the place step by step.
Time flies, and with various things intertwined, the spring exam results are about to be announced.
But at this time, news suddenly came that the teacher's relative who had evil intentions was thrown into prison for taking bribes. This made the teachers who tampered with the test papers very uneasy, and they gathered together to discuss for a long time.
The next day, when they met Wan Shufang on the street, several people avoided her gaze and tried to avoid her, but Wan Shufang had already seen them and greeted them in surprise.
"What a coincidence, teachers, why are you shopping today instead of studying with your students?"
As soon as Wan Shufang finished speaking, those people seemed to be frightened, panicked, and dodged to answer.
"Yeah, the weather is nice."
"Studying also requires a combination of work and rest, haha."
"It's nice to go out for a walk. We also want to buy a few books. I'll leave first."
Listening to the irrelevant replies from several people, Wan Shufang chuckled, her eyes fell on their panic-stricken faces, and her fingers gently stroked the corners of their clothes.
"Master, you seem very scared, is it because of me?"
"Or is it because of the spring exam?" She deliberately probed, her tone full of sarcasm: "Are you afraid that you will have to kneel down and kowtow to me if you lose? Have you done something wrong? I heard that many people have been arrested recently."
Upon hearing this, several people broke out in cold sweat on their foreheads and looked angry, but they dared not say anything.
