Chapter 1205: Scam
When Fan Zijin entered the palace to complain, Xiao Ting had already run back to report the entire incident to Mu Yangling.
"I wonder who started the rumor that Prince An brought the four young masters to destroy the Dong family’s farmland and wanted to break off relations with the Left Prime Minister." Xiao Ting wiped the sweat off his forehead.
Little Madam Xia nervously tugged at Mu Yangling’s hand. "Isn’t this matter blown up too much? Could the Left Prime Minister..."
"No." Mu Yangling comforted her. Fan Zijin had watched Rong Xuan grow up. As long as Rong Xuan was still the same person as he was back then, she was certain he wouldn’t blame Fan Zijin. She turned around and asked Xiao Ting, "Are you sure it was Prince An who asked Third Young Master to beat up Dong Mao?"
Xiao Ting took a careful look at Queen Consort Rong and said softly, "It was too chaotic back then. I heard from the guards that Young Master Zijin ordered the beating. Later, when both sides stopped, Prince An again ordered Third Young Master to continue beating Dong Mao up..."
Little Madam Xia asked in surprise, "Has His Highness lost his mind from anger?"
If Qi Haoran couldn’t make him lose his mind from anger, what else was capable of making him so mad? Mu Yangling firmly believed that there was a deeper meaning behind it, so she comforted Little Madam Xia. "Don’t worry, there might be something fishy going on. We just have to sit here in peace. If there’s something that even Zijin can’t handle, it’s useless for us to worry."
Even so, Little Madam Xia was still worried and specially got someone to keep an eye on the development of this matter.
