Chapter 1000: Chapter 1002: Now Realizing the Trouble_1

Liu Family’s body shook with rage, "What do you mean by ’even more foul’? What are you implying?" As she spoke, she lunged at Bai Ruozhu, trying to claw at Bai Ruozhu’s face.

With just one hand, Bai Ruozhu easily blocked Liu Family. She was naturally stronger than Liu Family, and she had practiced Martial Arts, not to mention simply blocking Liu Family, she could throw her out with just one hand.

"If you do not believe me, I will call the guards to show everyone," Bai Ruozhu said indifferently as she pushed off Liu’s hand.

Liu’s face collapsed in an instant; then she started crying, picking up the things she had scattered everywhere, and walked out of the Main house.

Seeing her second son outside the Room, Liu cried even harder, as though she had been bullied by Bai Ruozhu. Unfortunately, Bai Yihong turned his face away, pretending not to see, still busy tidying things up and completely unaffected by her tears.

Bai Ruozhu walked up behind her and said, "Grandmother, please stop crying, or others might think I am mistreating you. If they start asking, I will have to explain the situation clearly."

Liu stopped crying abruptly. After all, she was a woman of Ancient Times and cared a great deal about her reputation, at least how outsiders saw her. Moreover, now that Bai Fu had recognized his relatives and was about to prosper, she did not want Bai Fu to divorce her.

Bai Ruozhu signaled to Tao Ren with her eyes; Tao Ren went over to help Liu with her bundle and supported her towards the backyard, saying as they walked, "Old Madam, the Yard arranged for you by the young miss is on the east side. They say that ’Gold comes from the east.’ If you inhale the Earth’s Qi every morning, you are certain to live a long life."

The title "Old Madam" flattered Liu, and, feeling slightly better, she sheepishly followed Tao Ren to the east.

Guizhi and Zhang Liliang’s Family were like a lost soul in a horse carriage, seemingly oblivious to Liu’s outburst, appearing somewhat distraught.

Bai Ruozhu sighed. She knew Guizhi’s feelings well; Qin Kaichang had disappeared without leaving her a clear message. Was his closeness to Guizhi merely to use her to infiltrate the Bai Family?

She went to pat Guizhi on the shoulder and arranged for Guizhi to share a Yard with the Zhang Family members and Ruolan. Real estate was incredibly valuable in the Capital City, and there weren’t many small yards in the mansion. Moreover, Bai Ruozhu wasn’t at ease having Guizhi live alone in a little Yard.

Afterward, the Residence was organized. With many guards and maids helping to tidy up, things soon got back on track. At least by that evening, the Rooms that everyone would be staying in were all set up.

Seeing that it was almost time for dinner, Bai Ruozhu sent a maid to order two tables from a welcoming banquet to be prepared and delivered to the Bai Residence. The first meal in the Capital City couldn’t be too shabby for everyone.

...

In the Capital City’s Yang Family, Yang Hongwen lay on the bed, groaning incessantly. The Imperial Doctor, who stood beside, told the worried-looking Madam Yang, "The young master Yang has sustained some internal injuries, but they are not too serious. With proper convalescence, he should recover, but he must not leave the house to run about for a while and especially must not get agitated so easily."

The Yang Family’s senior madam looked at her beloved son with distress, "Did you hear that? You need to behave yourself during this time!"

Yang Hongwen continued to groan in pain as the Imperial Doctor frowned slightly and, after prescribing medicine, took his leave.

"Mother, why hasn’t Father left court yet? You and Father must decide for me. Look, your son was almost beaten to death," Yang Hongwen, the youngest son of the Great Elder Master of the Yang Residence, didn’t know how much he was pampered at home, and was very much a second-generation ancestor.

At that moment, a loud voice came from the doorway, "Who has beaten Hongwen? Are there really people in the Capital City who dare to harm someone so casually?"

As soon as the words were spoken, Yang Tianhua strode in. The Yang Family were all of martial descent, and although Yang Tianhua had never been on a battlefield, he had practiced martial arts from a young age, speaking with an inner strength that made his voice exceptionally loud.

"Dad, some bumpkin from out of town called Jiang Yichun, he’s the one who injured me," Yang Hongwen said impatiently.

Yang Tianhua’s expression immediately turned grave. "How did you end up crossing paths with him? What exactly happened?" he asked.

Yang Hongwen’s heart skipped a beat. What was going on with his father? Did he know that Jiang Yichun? Or was Jiang Yichun’s identity extraordinary?

"It was today when I went out that Fan Siniang’s horse carriage collided with ours, the coachman was injured, and at that time, Mrs. Jiang said she knew medical skills and stopped the bleeding for the coachman," Yang Hongwen said, glancing at his father’s reaction before continuing, "I was grateful to Mrs. Jiang for her kindness, so I went up to thank her. Little did I know that Jiang Yichun would appear out of nowhere and beat me up, causing me internal injuries."

Mrs. Yang was seething with anger, her willow-leaf eyebrows raised as she said, "This is absolutely preposterous, that man is simply an unreasonable brute!"

Yang Tianhua snorted coldly, interrupting the mother and son, and said, "What kind of character do you have, don’t you think I know that as your father? Do you realize who that Jiang Yichun is? He’s the Emperor’s childhood friend and the major contributor to the suppression of the Duke of Duan’s rebellion. Of all people, why would you provoke his wife?"

"Master, our son was just thanking someone, that’s the proper courtesy," Mrs. Yang quickly interjected from the side.

Yang Tianhua glared at her and said, "A doting mother leads to a son’s downfall; you’re the one who has spoiled him!"

Only then did Yang Hongwen realize he had not provoked a mere bumpkin from the country, but a man who was now highly favored by the Emperor. Unwilling to accept the situation, he asked, "So, we just let this go?"

"Let it go? How could we? You will come with me to apologize to their family first thing in the morning. With the rebellion of the Duke of Duan, everyone in the Capital is on edge, especially your cousin King Rui with his status, and our own Yang Family must also be cautious. And yet, you went and provoked Jiang Yichun. Can you tell me what good you’ve done?" Yang Tianhua shouted angrily.

Yang Hongwen shrank his neck, thinking to himself, how could he have known? Were it anyone else, his father would have taken care of them by now. But now, facing Jiang Yichun, his father was afraid? Since when did their Yang Family fear an upstart?

Of course, he dared not voice this out loud, but only said with a bitter face, "But it was Fan Siniang who insisted on betting with me, saying that if we went to apologize to Jiang Yichun, we’d have to give him your Broken Void Bow."

"You... Is my Broken Void Bow something you can wager?" Yang Tianhua, so angry he raised his hand to strike his son, was stopped by Mrs. Yang at his side.

"Master, our son has already been beaten with internal injuries; if you hit him again, won’t you be risking his life? Our son hasn’t done anything wrong. It’s that Jiang Yichun who, relying on his achievements, is throwing his weight around in the Capital. I think that not only should the Master not go apologize, but you should actually file a complaint against him!" Mrs. Yang said excitedly.

"Yeah, Dad, why should our Yang Family be afraid of such a nobody, a lowly one who came from who knows where," Yang Hongwen muttered.

Unable to strike him, Yang Tianhua could only glare and say, "What do you know? He’s not some lowly one; he is the eldest grandson of Elder Jiang Ge!"
