"That's very arrogant. Then do you know who this girl is?"

Hongxiu looked at Ning Shanwen with ice-cold eyes.

She had been here a long time ago, hiding in the shadows, and saw the ugly scene before.

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

She was once sent to the priest's office in this way. Thinking of the memory of that time, she was filled with fear.

At that time, she really had no way to go to heaven or earth. Now she saw a similar scene happening in front of her eyes. How could she not feel pity.

How could he have any good impression of Ning Shanwen?

"Who are you? Just a martial arts practitioner, so what? I am the prince of Duke Ning, how dare you touch me?" Ning Shanwen snorted coldly from his nostrils.

This has been the case in the past. As long as he reveals his identity, there will be no one who is not afraid.

Even if there is such a brave person, it is impossible to take action against him, unless it is a madman with a sick mind.

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

Therefore, he could conclude that the person in front of him was not a lunatic. In this case, she should be able to assess the situation.

"Snapped……"

But this time he obviously guessed wrong. A clear slap sounded and the sharp pain on his face made him realize that he had been beaten.

Moreover, he was beaten very hard, as if a big stone had hit his 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. His clean silk clothes were covered with dust.

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

Ning Shanwen could not speak clearly. He covered his mouth with his palm, and when he opened it again, a broken tooth appeared in his palm.

A slap to break a tooth, what a force it must be, it's like a monster.

But Ning Shanwen didn't think about that at this moment, he only knew that he was beaten.

It's amazing. He was actually beaten, or was beaten by a woman. Who would believe it if he told it?

"Hitting you is easy. We will settle this debt slowly." Hong Xiu sneered.

At this time, the sound of hoofbeats of a group of horses approached from near to far. Following the sound of reining in the horses, one horse snorted from the nose, and figures wearing soldiers' clothes turned over and fell off their horses.

They were the ten hidden guards that Hongxiu transferred through the token. They were originally here to help out, but when they dismounted, they saw that the battle was over. Instead of helping out, they came to clean up the mess.

"Brothers, please take this newly appointed Ning Guo Gong to the dungeon and lock him up in the dungeon for a few days. After that, my wife will naturally make arrangements." Hongxiu said.

"Don't worry, Miss Hongxiu, we will handle this matter properly. We will take away all the Duke Ning and others who are present." The leading knight saluted to Hongxiu, and then grabbed Ning Shanwen before he could speak. As he spoke, a knife was struck on his neck, instantly making Ning Shanwen unconscious.

The hidden guards directly obeyed the emperor's arrangements and basically ignored the bureaucrats of other systems, let alone a prince who did not yet have real power.

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

As for the reasons, the hidden guards don't actually need many legitimate reasons to arrest people. They can arrest anyone if something is wrong, but generally the hidden guards will not do this. If they disobey the orders from above and arrest people privately, it is also a serious crime.

However, the arrest this time was not a private arrest, so they had nothing to fear.

"Then thank you so much, big brothers."

The hidden guards nodded, and then divided their work and cooperated. They captured all the dozen or so people present, including Ning Shanwen, tied their hands, threw them onto their horses, and then galloped away.

After everything was settled, Hong Xiu turned his attention to Shen Biyu.

Shen Biyu had already put down the dagger in her hand. Because she had held the dagger too hard with her fingers, the blade had cut a wound on her neck, and a trace of bright red blood seeped out.

She had recognized Hongxiu from the moment she appeared.

The last time she was in Biyun Garden, she had seen Hongxiu's appearance and knew that she was Yang Ruoqing's personal maid, named maid, but she was actually similar to a sister.

Her appearance means that this crisis was solved by Yang Ruoqing.

Her heart became complicated. Who could have imagined how many so-called friends she had known for many years, many masters and celebrities in the industry, but none of them were reliable. In the end, it was Yang Ruoqing, whom she had only met once, who saved her. How should I say this?

"When I say hello to Madam, if you have any errands, please give me your instructions." Shen Biyu stepped forward to greet her.

She kept her posture very low. Anyone who knew her before would never have imagined that the proud Shen family would one day bow their heads like this, or bow their heads willingly.

"Shen, you don't have to be like this. Madam still respects you very much. This time it was indeed a disaster. Ning Shanwen acted too unscrupulously." Hong Xiu returned the courtesy.

"My wife captured Ning Shanwen this time. Could it be because I offended Duke Ning Guo?" Shen Biyu asked uneasily.

Duke Ning Guo was a very prestigious Duke in Da Qi. The first generation of Duke Ning had made great contributions to Da Qi. If Yang Ruoqing further turned against Ning Guo because of her, she would be even more uneasy.

"Don't worry, Madam has long since stopped dealing with Ning Guogong. Many people in the capital know this. Madam also ordered this time."

Hong Xiu paused and said, "What Madam means is that everyone, Shen, should quickly pack your luggage, 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. I only have seven children left. The others are all hired by me. I sent them off early."

Shen Biyu got the news a day earlier, so she made preparations, dismissed the hired help and others, and also asked people to take away the seven children, leaving her alone.

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

Once she dies, maybe all the problems will be solved. At least those children can live incognito, and she will provide them with enough money.

Who knew that Ning Shanwen would actually find them.

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

The human heart is truly extremely ugly.

"Miss Hongxiu, can I ask you a favor?" Shen Biyu hesitated for a moment, then finally spoke.

"Just say whatever you want," Hongxiu said.

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