Being a princess in a world with more men than women

Chapter 324 Xu Yuexi's Trust in Tang Liuqing

Hearing Gan Xiaolu say this, the other accomplices immediately begged for mercy.

"Please spare my life, my servant has only acted according to your wishes. Now that the truth has been revealed, you cannot just ignore me!"

......

Xu Yuexi sat next to Tang Liuqing, watching Tang Liuqing investigate things quietly.

She knew that it was best to let him handle this kind of thing. Although she could do it herself, it was troublesome! She didn't want to do troublesome things, she preferred to enjoy life freely. But the "worms" must be cleared, so she gave it to Tang Liuqing to deal with.

But what Xu Yuexi never expected was that these things were actually done by Tang Liuqing? If all this was secretly planned by Tang Liuqing, the son-in-law, then it would be understandable that those servants dared to be so presumptuous! After all, if they had Tang Liuqing's support behind them, they would naturally be bold.

However, even though these servants insisted that they were acting according to Tang Liuqing's wishes, Xu Yuexi still didn't believe it, so she asked Xiao Tongzi.

[He did tell them to take good care of your two servants before.]

Xu Yuexi was shocked when she heard this! When did her Feng Qing become such a narrow-minded person?

"Feng Qing, why are you doing this? Can't you tolerate them?" Xu Yuexi couldn't help but ask out loud because she was too surprised.

When Tang Liuqing heard Xu Yuexi's question, an expression of disbelief appeared on his face. He stared at Xu Yuexi and asked, "Princess, do you believe what they said?"

Xu Yuexi did not answer. She did not believe what they said, but she believed what Xiao Tongzi said! Xiao Tongzi would not lie to her about such a thing.

Silence is the answer.

"This prince consort has never done such a thing!" Tang Liuqing stood up and looked directly into Xu Yuexi's eyes. "This prince consort is upright in his actions and would not use such means to waste others' time, let alone they are your servants."

"When the emperor's order comes down, they will be my concubines."

"Princess, no matter they are the emperor's concubine or the emperor's concubine, I have never done it." Tang Liuqing said with a sad face.

In fact, no matter whether Yue Rensong and Ji Wuxie were servants or concubines, they were no match for him, the prince consort. As long as they didn't play tricks against him, he didn't need to take them seriously.

But he was too lazy to explain. What was the point of his explanation if the princess didn't believe him?

Xu Yuexi saw Tang Liuqing's hurt expression, and her heart softened. Her originally firm heart began to waver. She recalled every little bit of her time with Tang Liuqing. In reality, he was so generous that it made her feel distressed. Although he was a little jealous in the fantasy, he was also upright and honest, and he would never do such a despicable thing.

Maybe she really misunderstood him. He was her husband, and since he said something he hadn't done, she should believe him.

"Okay, since Feng Qing said he didn't do it, then he didn't do it. I believe you!"

"Come here," Xu Yuexi shouted, "These people have done evil things themselves, and now they dare to throw dirty water on the prince consort. They are so audacious, beat them up. Beat them until they tell the truth, and stop!"

Now that Tang Liuqing is involved, Xu Yuexi decides to take action personally and she also wants to protect her husband.

Several guards stepped forward and arrested several people led by Gan Xiaolu.

Seeing this, several servants quickly begged for mercy.

"Princess, please spare my life. I am telling the truth. It was Manager Gan who told me that the Prince Consort asked me to take good care of Yue Shijun and Ji Shijun. I was just following his instructions!" said the servant Lu Xiaoding.

"Yes, Princess, Manager Gan did tell me this, and every word I said is true." said the servant Xun Xiaosan.

......

"Gan Xiaolu, you are so bold that you dare to use the name of the prince consort to cheat and do things. Beat me severely." Xu Yuexi stared at Gan Xiaolu with eyes wide open, with anger and majesty flashing in her eyes.

Following Xu Yuexi's order, the guards pushed Gan Xiaolu to the ground and hit him hard with a board.

“Snap! Snap! Snap…”

Gan Xiaolu screamed, "Princess...Princess...Please spare my life. I was only following the orders of the Prince Consort!"

"Stop! Gan Xiaolu, I didn't expect you to be so stubborn even when death is imminent. In that case, tell me, when and where did the Prince Consort give you the order?"

"To answer the princess, it was three years ago. At that time, the princess had just married two servants and was in a bad mood. When the prince consort came to Fangfei Palace to visit the princess, I met the prince consort and he told me to take good care of the two servants. Although the prince consort had not married the princess at that time, he was the future prince consort after all, so I dared not disobey him!"

"Feng Qing, is this true?"

"It is true. I did meet Gan Xiaolu once when I came to your palace three years ago. At that time, he asked me some ambiguous questions, and I did tell him that they were the princess's servants and should be well taken care of and treated kindly, but I definitely did not suggest that he should bully them."

"Gan Xiaolu, you took it upon yourself to guess the Prince Consort's intentions, embezzled the monthly salary of the two servants, and used various means to embezzle the dowry of the servant Ji. Now that things have come to this, what else do you have to say?"

"Princess, I know I was wrong. Please forgive me. I am willing to pay back all the monthly salaries of the two servants and return all the dowry I received from Ji Shijun. Please spare my life."

"Prince Consort, Prince Consort, please save me. I am doing this for your own good!"

Things had come to this point, and Gan Xiaolu knew that it was no use denying it, so he had to keep begging Xu Yuexi and Tang Liuqing for mercy.

But how could Xu Yuexi let him off so easily? He almost succeeded in sowing discord between her and Tang Liuqing.

It was even more impossible for Tang Liuqing to let him go. He actually dared to do bad things in his name, so he had to bear the consequences of offending him.

Afterwards, Xu Yuexi's arrangements made Tang Liuqing very satisfied.

"Feng Qing, these people dared to slander you, so you are the one who will deal with them. Also, in the next few days, you should thoroughly investigate all the palace servants in Fangfei Palace and clear out all the hidden 'worms' for me. You must clean them out completely."

"Yes, I obey your order."

Tang Liuqing dared not disobey Xu Yuexi's orders, and was even more touched by Xu Yuexi's trust in him.

Tang Liuqing felt that he was the luckiest man in the world because he had the trust of his wife.
