Chapter 223 Don't be angry
When they arrived at the Marquis' Mansion, Qiao Jinlan and Lu Yunxu were waiting in the flower hall. The eldest princess went to the back to look for someone.
Not long after, Anping Hou came over and asked, "Are you the ones who bewitched the princess and asked for something?"
Qiao Jinlan sneered, "Marquis Anping, that thing was originally kept by the princess."
"What's the problem with me coming back now?"
"Could it be that you want to embezzle it?"
Anping Hou said coldly: "How outrageous!"
"Would a great marquis like me embezzle your little stuff?"
"That thing was not given to the princess by you. How do you prove that you are the owner of the box?"
Qiao Jinlan sneered and asked, "How do you think we should prove it?"
"Liu Shuiqing can't come."
"If he could come, there would be no need to trouble us to come."
Marquis Anping said earnestly, "It's not that I don't trust you, but this thing is kept by the eldest princess, so you must be careful."
“We can’t just hand it over to other people.”
"You must prove that you are indeed the owner of this box."
"How do you think we should prove it?" Qiao Jinlan asked Anping Hou with a smile.
Anping Hou said straightforwardly: "It's very simple. First, you tell me what's in the box, then open the box. After confirming that everything is correct, you can take the box and leave."
As Marquis Anping said this, he took out the box and placed it on the table.
He pointed generously, indicating that he had no intention of not returning it, but he needed to verify its identity.
It was confirmed that Qiao Jinlan and Lu Yunxu were the owners of the box, and not imposters.
Seeing Anping Hou's behavior, Qiao Jinlan couldn't help but laugh: "Anping Hou, you really have a good plan."
Anping Hou looked at her in confusion: "What do you mean?"
Qiao Jinlan smiled meaningfully: "You have been unable to open this box for so many years. Now, you want to use my hand to open the box so that you can take the things inside for yourself, right?"
Anping Hou's face changed: "Ridiculous!"
"Does this Marquis need to embezzle this little bit of your money?"
"Don't keep calling me the Marquis." Qiao Jinlan sneered disdainfully, "If you hadn't married the eldest princess, would you still be a Marquis? Would your Anping Marquisate still be as prosperous as it is today?"
"I'm afraid it has already fallen."
Anping Hou was so angry that his face turned blue: "How dare you humiliate me like this!"
"How dare you!" The princess was also furious. "Don't think that just because you know Liu Shuiqing, you can humiliate Anping Hou at will!"
"Why would the Marquis care about this little box of yours?"
"You don't care?" Qiao Jinlan smiled and raised her eyebrows. "If you don't care, the box has been tried and unlocked no less than a hundred times. It has been burned with fire, soaked in water, and even chopped with knives and axes."
"You mean you don't care?"
Marquis Anping felt nervous. How did they know?
The princess did not even suspect Anping Hou, but directly scolded: "Stop talking nonsense."
"Don't say that the Marquis has never done such a thing. Even if he did, how would you know?"
"I think you guys came here on purpose to cause trouble!"
"Come here, take them down for me!"
Following the eldest princess' order, Marquis Anping looked at Qiao Jinlan and Lu Yunxu triumphantly.
As for the guards who were supposed to appear immediately...none of them showed up.
The eldest princess was stunned for a moment, and then her first reaction was to look at Marquis Anping first.
As soon as she saw the Marquis of Anping's face turn black, the princess hurriedly stood up and walked quickly to the outside of the flower hall to call for help.
However, she couldn't step out of the hall.
Because, the wide open door seemed to have an invisible layer blocking her.
"What's going on?" The princess hit it hard, but the thing was like a hard stone wall and she couldn't break it at all.
There were clearly maids and guards waiting outside the hall, but she kept knocking on the door without attracting anyone's attention.
"This, this..." The princess turned around in astonishment and stared at Qiao Jinlan, "Who are you?"
Anping Hou was also frightened: "You, you are from the God Servant Family?"
Qiao Jinlan did not answer them, but just curled the corners of her lips.
The expression of Anping Hou changed, but he quickly calmed down: "I don't care who you are."
"Get out of here right now!"
Qiao Jinlan couldn't help but laugh: "Where on earth do you get the confidence to talk to me like that?"
"Is it because the brainless princess praised you to the skies that you started to get carried away?"
"You have to know that only the eldest princess would fall for your tricks. You're trying to play this trick on me? You're thinking wrongly!"
Qiao Jinlan slammed the table, and the solid wooden table broke into pieces with a bang.
The princess rushed back in fear and stood in front of Marquis Anping: "My Lord, be careful."
"Why don't you arrest them for me right now!" Marquis Anping hid behind the eldest princess and ordered angrily.
"Okay." The eldest princess responded, staring at Qiao Jinlan warily.
However, she didn't think there was anything wrong with the tone of the command given by Marquis Anping.
Qiao Jinlan was so angry that she stood up immediately.
Lu Yunxu hurriedly stopped her: "Madam, don't!"
Anping Hou snorted coldly: "You really should discipline your wife."
"As a woman, you should be taught a lesson for being so vulgar."
Lu Yunxu ignored Anping Hou and patted Qiao Jinlan on the back: "Don't be angry, don't be angry, how can Madam do such a rough job of beating people?"
"I'll do it, I'll do it, you take a rest!"
Anping Hou: “?”
Qiao Jinlan let out a breath of foul air and then sat down: "Go and give him a good beating."
"Okay." Lu Yunxu agreed immediately, as long as Jinlan wasn't angry.
Anping Hou sneered contemptuously: "As a man, you actually listen to a woman. It is a shame for a man."
Lu Yunxu responded to Marquis Anping with a heavy punch.
The punch hit Anping Hou in the face and knocked him away.
Afterwards, Marquis Anping didn't even have time to react and was beaten like a ghost screaming in pain.
The eldest princess was shocked and rushed over quickly to hit Lu Yunxu.
Lu Yunxu had no such thing as not hitting women. He waved his hand and knocked the princess away.
The eldest princess hit the chair, knocking it over with a crackling sound, and then fell to the ground. She was in so much pain that she couldn't even scream.
At this time, Anping Hou was still shouting angrily: "Are you dead? Why don't you come to help me!"
The eldest princess gritted her teeth, endured the pain and forced herself to stand up, then turned to look at Qiao Jinlan.
If she can't beat Lu Yunxu, then she'll deal with Qiao Jinlan.
