Volume 1_Chapter 147: The Female Devil is Yun Qiyue, Yun Qiyue is...

As soon as Li Xiaofei said this, everyone looked at Xu Shi, waiting for Xu Shi's answer.

But how could Xu Shi answer?

Xu Shi was certain that bickering with a rascal like Li Xiaofei would only make things worse, and instead, it would let those people see enough of her family's jokes.

Taking a deep breath, Xu Shi forced herself not to tangle with Li Xiaofei, but instead looked at Yun Qiyue.

Meeting again, there was no longer the gentleness Xu Shi usually feigned in her eyes; her gaze was like a knife, looking as if she wished she could tear Yun Qiyue into ten thousand pieces.

Seeing Yun Qiyue, she felt a pain in her face.

And in fact, her face was truly in pain; if it weren't for the thick makeup covering it, she would have lost face in front of these ignorant and fearless commoners at this very moment.

Taking a deep breath, Xu Shi questioned sternly, "What exactly do you want to do by leading these people to the Marquis Mansion's gate? Do you have to make the family restless before you'll stop? Don't forget, you are surnamed Yun after all; even with the Regent backing you, you cannot be so lawless!"

Xu Shi took the initiative to strike first, wanting to guide the direction of public opinion, letting people know that Yun Qiyue was making trouble for no reason by relying on the Regent's power.

As for Li Xiaofei, seeing that Xu Shi was no longer paying attention to him, he didn't continue to pester her, but retreated to the front of the crowd, preparing to watch the show properly.

After all, he didn't want to really get involved with Yun Yarou.

A troublesome woman, as long as you get involved with her, it means constant trouble; he didn't want to look for trouble for no reason.

And Xu Shi's words not only shifted the onlookers' attention from Yun Yarou to Yun Qiyue, but also made everyone unable to help but think about Yun Qiyue following Xu Shi's words.

Could it be that this time, it really was Yun Qiyue making trouble for no reason by relying on the Regent's power?

Yun Qiyue looked at Xu Shi with amusement, "I'm very sorry, with the Imperial Uncle backing me, I am indeed capable of being lawless."

Did she really think that striking first would work? That would require her to have the ability to control her.

Unfortunately, she didn't think Xu Shi had that ability.

Hearing this, Xu Shi choked.

She couldn't refute these words.

In fact, if it weren't for this assassination attempt, she had absolute certainty that Yun Qiyue couldn't find evidence related to her; just based on Ye Lanjue's protection of Yun Qiyue, she wouldn't have easily made a move against Yun Qiyue again.

But, the bad thing was Rou'er's self-assertion, which made her very passive.

Especially, she was afraid of Ye Lanjue.

If this matter were just about dealing with Yun Qiyue, it wouldn't be that difficult, but unfortunately, Yun Qiyue had Ye Lanjue behind her.

The more Xu Shi thought about it, the more she felt stifled.

And Yun Qiyue, at this moment, didn't know when she had gotten an extra bottle in her hand; Yun Qiyue opened the bottle stopper and waved it in front of the nose of the big man on the ground who had almost been forgotten by everyone.

Then, everyone saw that the big man, who had been lying on the ground like mud, moved.

However, the big man had been carried here all the way, and his fear of Yun Qiyue was already like a surging river; even if he regained his mobility, he could only act like a grandson in front of Yun Qiyue.

Yun Qiyue spoke lazily, "Speak, what did you do today?"

Upon hearing this, the big man's body stiffened.

Then, he raised his head with some fear, looking at Yun Qiyue cautiously, looking as if he didn't know whether he should speak or not.

Yun Qiyue looked over coldly, her gaze as if saying, "Do what I tell you to do, just be obedient."

The big man understood in a second.

"Just... the little one was originally looking for fun on the street, then I was stopped by someone, someone gave me money, and asked me to find a few brothers to... to do that to you on the street..."

The big man couldn't continue; he was afraid of being beaten by Yun Qiyue.

If he had doubted whether he had found the wrong person before, then now he didn't doubt it at all.

The female devil is Yun Qiyue, Yun Qiyue is the female devil, that's right.

And inside the General's Mansion gate, hearing the big man's words, Yun Yongyuan exploded.

"Bastard—"

He shouted loudly and wanted to rush out to vent his anger for his granddaughter.

However, Huailin pulled him back in time, "Marquis, the Third Miss can handle this matter herself, please don't get involved."

"But that bastard—"

"Marquis!" Huailin felt helpless.

It wasn't that he really wanted to persuade him, but before coming out, the Marquis himself had instructed that he would let the Third Miss handle it herself and he wouldn't intervene, saying that only if he didn't show up could the Third Miss better resolve the matter and handle the situation.

In short, he definitely had to follow the Marquis's instructions.

No one noticed the commotion inside the General's Mansion, but the big man's words made the onlookers' expressions turn strange.

On the street, to do that to Yun Qiyue...

The gossiping crowd were sensible people; everyone knew what "that" meant, but—

"Aren't you afraid of the Regent?" someone couldn't help but ask.

The big man glanced at Yun Qiyue, and seeing that Yun Qiyue didn't mean to stop him, he stammered in reply, "The bold are stuffed to death, the timid are starved to death, besides, as long as we... succeed, the Regent definitely won't care about her anymore..."

The more he spoke, the more guilty the big man felt.

Then, a new question arose.

Who was the person who found the big man with such sinister intentions?

Yun Qiyue carried the person to the Marquis Mansion's gate; could it be that this matter was done by the Marquis Mansion?

Xu Shi naturally saw the suspicious gazes of the crowd.

This matter was done by Rou'er, but it absolutely must not be known by others.

Thus, Xu Shi said with an ugly expression: "Qiyue, what do you mean by this? Could it be that you think this thug is the person we found? You must find evidence when speaking and acting."

Upon hearing this, Yun Qiyue curled her lips.

Evidence?

She had it!

Then, Yun Qiyue snapped her fingers, her eyes filled with mockery and confidence.

Looking at Yun Qiyue's gaze, Xu Shi had a bad premonition.

Then at this moment, a young man in green, carrying a person, came out from the crowd.

"Bang—" With a sound, the young man threw the person in his hand out, throwing him directly at the big man's feet.

And this young man was none other than one of Yun Qiyue's guards, Yu Lin.

After throwing the person, Yu Lin stood indifferently behind Yun Qiyue.

And the big man, seeing the face of the person on the ground at this moment, hurriedly said: "That's right, it's him, it's him who asked us to deal with Third Miss Yun, he gave me the silver."

Saying this, the big man dug and dug, and pulled out a money bag.

That money bag was pink-purple, looking at it, it belonged to a woman, and that texture was definitely not something a big man should have.

"The silver and silver notes are all inside, I haven't touched them yet."

Saying this, the big man threw it to Yun Qiyue like a hot potato.

Yun Qiyue took the money bag, and then looked at Xu Shi, whose face was ugly, with a smile that wasn't a smile, "First Madam Yun, I wonder if you have seen this person?"

Xu Shi naturally denied it.

Seeing this, Yun Qiyue didn't care, looked at the person on the ground, and said lightly, "Will you confess yourself, or do I need to force a confession?"

She was truly too lazy to do such things as forcing a confession.

Mainly because the script was too old, making her lose interest.

"I, the little one, the little one will confess himself." The person thrown on the ground had a pale face.

When that group of thugs entered the alley, he had been caught.

And, he had been carried along to watch a big show.

It was also at this moment that he finally knew the Third Miss's terror.

If he were given a chance to choose again, he would absolutely not choose to go against the Third Miss.

Saying this, the person continued, "I, it was Second Miss's maid Zhiqi who instructed me to do it."

"What nonsense are you spouting?" Xu Shi's voice was sharp, her face ferocious.

The person hurriedly said: "The little one is not spouting nonsense, it was Zhiqi, that money bag was Zhiqi's, just ask people in the mansion and you'll know."

Anyway, he had gone all out.

Compared to the First Madam, the Third Miss was even more terrifying.

Hearing this, Yun Qiyue looked at Xu Shi with a smile that wasn't a smile.

She wanted to see how Xu Shi would defend herself this time. ===== CHAPTER 148 =====
