Chapter 144 Knowing the Conspiracy
Chapter 144 Knowing the Conspiracy
When Chenxiang saw that her young mistress was being followed, she was not flustered at all, and even a little excited, her eyes filled with disbelief.
"Miss, listen to me! These people are up to no good. You'd better leave quickly. I can hold them off!"
Song Ruozhen looked at Chen Xiang helplessly. This girl was so thin and frail that any one of them could easily carry her away. But the fact that she had this kind of heart was far better than those who betrayed their own people.
"When you get to that alley, hide yourself first, so you don't get hurt."
Chenxiang was terrified and filled with regret. If she had known this would happen, she would never have walked back with her mistress on her own. She didn't know if Youfu had been bribed!
The group of people who followed her watched as Song Ruozhen walked into the alley, and they were incredibly excited.
"The opportunity has arrived, get ready to act!"
The man waved his hand, and the others rushed forward, their eyes filled with excitement.
In a little while, they'll be able to enjoy themselves properly.
However, just as the group rushed into the alley, a stick came crashing down on them, knocking them unconscious.
"Fourth!"
The three men were shocked to see the fourth brother knocked unconscious. When they looked up and saw that the person who had done it was Song Ruozhen, they smiled mockingly.
"I didn't expect this little wench to be so capable; she actually discovered us?"
"Who sent you?"
Looking at the unfamiliar faces in front of her, Song Ruozhen thought that the person who most wanted her to get into trouble was probably Qin Shuangshuang.
I was just beaten up yesterday, and now I'm being picked on again today. Do you think the previous lesson was too lenient?
"Hey little girl, we brothers think you're pretty good-looking. How about you keep us company tonight and have some fun?"
The man naturally wouldn't reveal who was behind it all. He gazed longingly at the exquisite and beautiful face before him; he had never seen such a pretty girl before.
I only knew that rich girls were all good-looking before, but seeing them in person today, I realized what a stunning beauty is.
Dying under the peony blossoms would be a romantic death; to spend a night with such a beauty would be worth dying for!
"Alright." Song Ruozhen's lips curled slightly as she slowly stepped forward. "Then I'll keep you company tonight!"
The moment he finished speaking, Song Ruozhen suddenly threw the stick in her hand. The huge force of the blow made the man scream and fall to the ground.
The remaining two people were also taken aback when they saw how fierce Song Ruozhen was.
They really underestimated this girl.
Song Ruozhen swiftly stepped forward, dodging one of the men's punches with one hand while simultaneously kicking another man in the chest.
Every punch lands with a thud, every step is swift and powerful.
They were just a few seemingly strong but actually completely disorganized individuals, and they were easily dealt with.
"Agarwood, come out!"
Chenxiang stared blankly as her young mistress dealt with the four people in the blink of an eye, her mouth agape, her eyes filled with disbelief.
"Miss, how did you become so amazing?"
Song Ruozhen raised her eyebrows and chuckled, "My father was, after all, a majestic general, and as his daughter, I naturally cannot tarnish his reputation."
Chenxiang was utterly impressed. She knew that the general often instructed the young masters and ladies in martial arts when he was in the mansion, but the young lady was gentle and had never been interested in such things.
It turns out that even if the young lady wasn't interested, dealing with a few people was still a simple matter.
"Should we report these four people to the authorities?"
Looking at the four people who had fallen into a coma, Chenxiang couldn't help but say, "Miss, why don't I go and report this to the authorities? These people are all wicked, and I'm worried that it will affect your reputation."
Song Ruozhen smiled slightly, "No need. It's useless to report a few small fry to the authorities. The most important thing is to catch the person behind them."
"The person behind it all? Weren't they just lusting after her?" Chenxiang's eyes widened.
"Look at their clothes, they're just ordinary people. Even if they were to actually assault someone, they would choose an ordinary girl. To dare to rob a noble lady in the city would be tantamount to courting death."
Chenxiang understood immediately and began searching the four people, quickly finding the rope and sleeping pills.
"Miss, this is all they have."
Song Ruozhen nodded, tied the four people up with rope, and then said, "Chenxiang, go back and tell my third brother that I'm waiting for him nearby."
“But you’re all alone…” Chenxiang began instinctively, but then, remembering her young mistress’s nimble skills, she said, “I’ll go to the shop to find someone right away.”
Taking advantage of Chenxiang's departure, Song Ruozhen woke up the leader inside with a single blow.
The man woke up in a daze, met Song Ruozhen's cold gaze, and saw that all his brothers beside him had fainted. His eyes were filled with deep horror.
"What do you want? Let us go!"
"What do I want to do? Why don't you tell me what you want to do?"
Song Ruozhen lazily raised her eyebrows, "Where did Qin Shuangshuang take me after she drugged me?"
"W-What Qin Shuangshuang? I have no idea what you're talking about."
The man was filled with shock. He hadn't said anything, so how did this woman know?
"Snapped!"
Song Ruozhen raised her hand and slapped the man across the face. The man coughed up blood from the pain, and two broken teeth were found mixed in with the blood.
“I don’t have much patience. If you want to live, you’d better explain yourselves, or I guarantee none of the four of you will see the sun rise tomorrow.”
The man's Adam's apple bobbed, his eyes filled with horror. He had thought this girl was easy to bully, but who would have thought she was a shrew?
That slap was so powerful, even a man couldn't match it!
"Under the very nose of the emperor, you dare to kill someone to silence them?"
"You dare to bully men and women, and you're asking me if I dare to kill you to cover it up?"
Song Ruozhen sneered, "There are probably quite a few people who want you dead, like you bullies who pick on the weak and fear the strong."
I've dealt with you all without you even noticing, so who would question it? Surely... Qin Shuangshuang wouldn't dare stand up for you?
"Let me calculate... Yong'an Lane?"
At that moment, the man's expression completely changed. "You... how did you know?"
"I was just giving you a chance to ask you, did you really think I didn't know?" Song Ruozhen's lips curled slightly. Qin Shuangshuang was really desperate and would even resort to such despicable means.
When Song Zhiyu arrived, he saw his younger sister standing calmly, while the four guys around her, who were tied up and beaten to a pulp, were begging for mercy.
Song Zhiyu: "..." My fifth sister is so fierce?
"Third Brother!"
When Song Ruozhen saw Song Zhiyu, she waved with a smile, her gentle and sweet voice making people's hearts melt.
A doting smile instantly appeared on Song Zhiyu's face; his fifth sister was still as adorable as ever.
"Fifth Sister, I'm here. Are you alright?"
