Chapter 402: Beating He Qing
Chapter 402: Beating He Qing
Princess Xiao had never seen such a scene before. She was so frightened that her legs went limp and she sat on the ground, unable to move.
Xiao Huang paced to a place not far from Princess Xiao and stopped.
A pair of tiger eyes flashed with frightening ferocity as they stared at her.
Princess Xiao wanted to ask for help, but found that her voice seemed to have been lost.
"Help, help."
The sound was as soft as a mosquito's buzz. At this moment, He Yunyi's voice came from the Dingwang Palace: "Xiao Huang, what are you doing? I took you out for a walk, but you ran so fast. How can I catch up with you?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Huang stood up, glared at Princess Xiao, and walked back. When he turned around, he swept his big tail hard, hitting Princess Xiao in the face.
"Ah!" There was a scream and a blood mark appeared on Princess Xiao's face. She fainted from the pain.
He Yunyi rolled her eyes. She deserved it. She had to come to the Dingwang Palace to watch a fool of herself!
"What happened to Princess Xiao? Are there any guards from the Xiao Palace? Your princess has fainted, why don't you take her back to see her?"
There were still a few guards from Prince Xiao's mansion around who had not run far. Seeing that the tiger had no intention of attacking anyone again, they slowly walked over, lifted Princess Xiao and put her back on the sedan chair, then left in a hurry.
He Yunyi patted Xiao Huang on the head and said, "Well done, I'll give you a big chicken drumstick as a reward when I get back."
Xiao Huang let out a meow, and followed her back to the palace with his tail up.
Princess Xiao was carried back to the palace in a panic by the servants, and happened to run into the drunk He Qing.
He burped and his eyes fell on Princess Xiao: "Mother, mother, what's wrong?"
"Sir, it was done by the tiger in Dingguo Palace!"
He Qing was already drunk, and he only heard the words "Prince Ding's Palace". How could he hear anything else?
"What? Dingguo Palace!"
He Qing sneered, "It's them again! I haven't settled my previous accounts with them yet, and now they've hurt my mother again! How dare you!"
He rushed into the yard, took out his sword, and went out.
At this time, Prince Xiao was not in the palace, and no one could stop him. He came to the Ding Palace with a sword in hand. The door was already closed. He pointed at the plaque of the Ding Palace with a sword in hand and said, "Come out! All you people in the Ding Palace, get out now!"
The doorman rushed in and said in a panic, "Madam, Miss, it's bad, it's bad, Prince Xiao is coming with a sword!"
Princess Ding sat up and said in a deep voice, "What's going on?"
"Prince Xiao was drunk and was yelling and cursing at the door. His words were very ugly."
Princess Ding looked at He Yunyi and asked, "What did you just do?"
"I didn't do anything. I just asked Xiao Huang to drive the people from Prince Xiao's Mansion away. Who asked them to come to our palace to make fun of us?" He Yunyi pouted: "If my sister-in-law was still here, how dare these bastards come to bully us? Now that my brother and father are not here, they are deliberately taking advantage of this time to bully us."
Princess Ding sighed when she heard this, "Just say I'm not feeling well and won't see guests. If she pesters you, just drive her out of the house. Why bother letting Xiao Huang drive her away? That Xiao Huang was left to you by your sister-in-law. What if she gets hurt? What if he goes to Xiao Wangfu to complain and the emperor blames me?"
When Shang Ruoyi was mentioned, the mother and daughter were about to cry again: "If the emperor blames us, I will not let them touch Xiao Huang even if I have to risk my life."
He Qing cursed outside for a long time, but in the end he didn't see anyone.
"Prince, let's go back! The doctor has come to see her. The injury on the princess' face is not serious. She just fainted from shock. You should go back and take a look!" The housekeeper caught up and persuaded him earnestly for a long time. He looked at the Dingguo Palace from time to time, fearing that their door would be opened. The Dingguo Palace was not an ordinary family. If they really annoyed them, it would not be as simple as a beating. Although their Xiao Palace had the support of the prince, they still could not afford to offend the Dingguo Palace.
"Prince, let's go back first! We can discuss it after the prince comes back."
"No! I won't go back! I'm going to ask the people from Dingwang Palace to come out. I'm going to ask them if they know who they hurt! Can they afford to offend our Xiao Palace? Traitors!"
Just then, the sound of horse hooves was heard.
He Yuwen came galloping over on a brown-red Ferghana horse.
Looking at He Qing standing in front of the palace with a long sword in his hand, he couldn't help but look fierce, and raised the whip in his hand and fell directly on him.
He Yuwen had been fighting on the battlefield for many years. A single blow from his whip could tear a person's skin apart. This time, he showed no mercy to He Qing. The whip hit him and he started bleeding instantly.
"Ah! Who!" The intense pain made him sober for a moment. He blinked his eyes and shuddered when he saw who it was. "Uncle."
"You still have the nerve to call me!" He Yuwen said coldly, "If you remember that I am your uncle, you shouldn't come to my door with a sword in hand and shout. What is your purpose in coming here today?"
He Qing burped again and was unsteady on his feet. Seeing this, the housekeeper stepped forward and said, "Please forgive me, Your Majesty. My son got drunk and came to your house to make a scene. Please forgive me."
Prince Ding said coldly, "Someone, help Prince Xiao sober up."
"Yes!"
Seeing this, the soldier behind him brought a bucket of ice water and poured it directly on He Qing without saying a word. The biting cold made him shiver, and his originally confused mind instantly became clear.
He looked at the person standing in front of him, then looked down at the sword in his hand. He was so scared that he quickly threw the sword to the ground: "Uncle, I know I was wrong." Thinking back to what he had done, he wished he could slap himself in the face.
He must have lost his mind to do such a thing.
"Uncle, I was wrong!"
"Go back to your Xiao Palace. If you do these things again, don't blame me for being merciless."
"Yes, yes, yes." He Qing was so scared that he crawled away.
When He Yuwen walked into the yard, he saw Xiao Huang guarding the door with fierce eyes. He couldn't help but be shocked. If he hadn't come back just now, Xiao Huang might have bitten him to death.
Seeing him come in, Xiao Huang retracted his claws, nodded symbolically, and turned to leave.
He Yuwen was stunned for a moment. Was it just saluting him?
Has this tiger become a spirit?
After he came back and saw his wife and daughter, he found out the whole story.
"You!" He Yuwen said angrily, "There are so many servants in the mansion, why do you insist on letting Xiao Huang go? If something happens, how will you explain to your sister-in-law when she comes back?"
The two people, who were still immersed in pain, were stunned when they heard him say this.
