Chapter 36 Who are you?

Chapter 36 Who are you?

The groom heard the people around the strong man also laughing at the prince.

"Unbelievable!"

"How ridiculous! Who do you think you are?"

"I'm going to report to the government in Jingzhao Prefecture. Do you know which way the gate of the government office faces?"

Chu Li glanced at the groom and said, "Don't worry about it, go ahead!"

In fact, the groom was the palace guard Kong Wu in disguise. He was also a capable person that Chu Li had investigated and background checked.

Kong Wu was ostracized by other guards because of his upright conduct.

He did not take sides, nor did he obey Chu Li. He just focused on doing his duty as a guard.

Once she was injured outside the palace, and her strong horse fell off a cliff, so she had to return on foot.

As she recalled, it was Kong Wu who dragged her all the way back to the palace on a stretcher to find the imperial physician, which prevented her from falling seriously ill.

She saw that Kong Wu's shoes were worn out by running and his toes were covered in bright red.

Since then, Kong Wu was even more ostracized by the guards.

But because his uncle was the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, no one dared to really touch him.

Kong Wu wanted to teach these people a lesson just now, but he held back when he remembered that the prince had reminded him before he left: don't take action unless it is absolutely necessary.

He was shocked just now. His Highness's kung fu was so amazing and his strength was definitely above his.

His Highness has really grown up. It was quite satisfying to see him beating up those guys just now.

His Highness seems different since the autumn hunt.

Kong Wu, a man of sturdy build and good looks, untied the carriage, mounted his horse and was ready to leave.

Suddenly, I heard the burly man behind me laughing wildly, "Master, I'm waiting for you!"

Kong Wu turned his head on his horse and gave him a glare, and the strong man felt a chill down his spine.

Bingxia got off the carriage and stood behind Chu Li, "Master, are you okay?"

Chu Li spread his hands, "He can run, jump, and smile."

The sturdy man with blood all over his mouth and several lost teeth was lying on the ground, looking at Chu Li fiercely.

Wait!

Soon, he would let this overconfident pretty boy in front of him know what a powerful prince is!

After clan leader Mei Renpin learned what happened here, he came here with the help of a crutch.

When he saw the man who was beaten by Chu Li and could not even stand up and could only sit against the wall, he pointed his cane at Chu Li and cursed: "Bold lunatic!"

Chu Li looked at the old man who was glaring at her without knowing right from wrong and asked, "Who are you?"

Mei Renpin knocked his cane on the ground, making a clanging sound. "You ignorant boy, you have no respect for others! No matter who I am, it's wrong for you to hit someone!"

Chu Li tilted his head to look at him, "Why, is the one on the ground your grandson?"

"Grandfather! Hurry up and have someone tie them up!"

Chu Li: “…” She actually guessed it right.

People from the manor came out one after another, and Bingxia's voice sounded behind them, "Most people in Xiaomei Manor have the surname Mei. This person seems to be the clan leader Mei Renpin. It is said that he has ten grandchildren."

Chu Li's lips twitched, "It seems that he really has no character to raise such a good grandson."

Soon, eight servants from Mei Renpin's house rushed out, each pointing at Chu Li with a wooden stick.

Mei Renpin was the only scholar in the village. He thought highly of himself. He snorted coldly and clasped his hands together and said, "This is the fief of the current Crown Prince. You are behaving recklessly here. Why don't you surrender immediately!"

Chu Li laughed, "Your grandson used the name of the crown prince to beat people up and then tried to rob them. Later he threatened me that he was the third and fourth princes' man. Which side do you, the Mei family, support?"

She didn't believe that old man Mei Renpin didn't know that his grandson had been dominating the village for a long time and ruining the prince's reputation.

Mei Renpin pointed his trembling finger at Chu Li. This kid had such a poisonous tongue that he actually dragged their family into the battle for the throne. "Asshole, what nonsense are you talking about!"

"Grandfather, his groom has already gone to report to the police. We are just waiting here. Look at what he has done to his grandson. We will never let this matter go!"

Mei Renpin glared at his grandson with a pair of eyes that were not kind, "You useless thing, how can you not hit him back when he hits you!"

Chu Li's eyebrows jumped. He was biased towards his own grandson without any discrimination. Haha, well, it turned out that some bad guys are getting old.

Seeing that Chu Li was about to be besieged by the crowd, a tall and thin man pushed through the crowd and bowed to Mei Renpin, "Old Patriarch, the government officials will be here soon. If you beat them up, you won't be able to explain yourself, right?"

"Mei Maobing, you are the only one who knows how to talk!" Mei Renpin sneered.

Mei Maobing chuckled, "Old clan leader, calm down. It is better to resolve a feud than to create one. Those passing by are guests of Xiaomei Manor."

As he spoke, he put one hand behind his back and waved at Chu Li, signaling her to leave quickly.

Chu Li took a look at the tall and thin young man.

She just heard the other person's name seemed to be Mei Maobing?

No problem!

The people in this village named themselves as casually as her fourth master.

The old patriarch suddenly hit Mei Maobing's arm hard with his cane and cursed: "It's not you who was beaten. If it were you, your blind mother would probably fight this man to the death!"

Chu Li looked at Mei Maobing's red arms and his uneven breathing due to anger, and thought he would resist.

Unexpectedly, Mei Maobing said with a smile, "Old Patriarch, you are the most knowledgeable person in our village. Please be generous and don't bother with the younger generation."

Chu Li couldn't bear to listen any longer, so she quickly stepped forward and snatched away Mei Renpin's crutch.

The old man suddenly squatted on the ground.

"Ouch, my waist!" The old man simply sat on the ground and refused to get up.

Chu Li watched him act quietly.

The Mei family members accused one after another, "Well, you dare to hurt my father!"

"Uncle San, come on, grab your weapons and beat this arrogant guy to death!"

Seeing that the two sides were about to fight, Mei Maobing standing in the middle suddenly changed his expression, and Chu Li suddenly saw a terrifying aura from him.

"Stop it all!"

His voice startled everyone and the surroundings became quiet.

He looked at everyone, "Xiaomei Manor is the fief of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. If a murder were to occur here today, it would definitely alert His Majesty and His Royal Highness. When the investigation begins, who among you will be able to clear the charges?"

The Mei family looked at each other and no one said a word.

The people in the village secretly looked at the Mei family. It was really satisfying. No one in the clan leader's family was a good person. Only Mei Maobing dared to say so.

Chu Li looked at Mei Maobing. This guy was a good guy, there was really nothing wrong with him!

Suddenly, an old woman came over, leaning on a wooden stick and banging on the ground.

"Bing'er, don't cause trouble!" The old woman's voice trembled.

"Mom, didn't I tell you not to go out alone?" Mei Maobing immediately turned around and wanted to help his mother.

At the same time, the old patriarch, who had just been helped up by the servant, had a dark look in his eyes. He picked up the crutch on the ground and stretched it towards the old woman's legs, watching the old woman about to fall.

Mei Maobing yelled, "Mom!"

Unexpectedly, someone supported the old woman faster than him. He raised his eyes and saw Chu Li's androgynous face, which was as cold as ice!
