The fool has become a spirit, and she can speak

Chapter 1862 Fleeing in Disarray

Mrs. Han's voice carried a hint of unexpected joy, her eyes were full of hope, and her expression was one of contentment, as if all her efforts had finally paid off!

Wan Baiqian's voice was icy, his eyes ruthless. "Wasn't my mother made sick by your Han family? How dare you come to see my mother!"

"No, Baiqian, what kind of talk is that? We're all family. Of course I need to see your mother if I have something to discuss. Don't forget, your mother's surname is also Han. We're all family, so it's best not to be so formal!" This was the third time Madam Han had acted like an elder. The first time was in front of Shang Xi, the second time was in front of Cheng Feng, and the third time was in front of Wan Baiqian. The reason she dared to act like this was because the Han family always had Old Madam Wan backing them up. As long as Old Madam Wan was around, these younger generations had to respect the Han family!

Wan Baiqian sneered, "Liu Yueniang, who are you related to? We are surnamed Wan, the surname of the Prince Pang's Mansion is Wan, what are the surnames of all of you?"

Madam Han angrily pointed at Wan Baiqian on the steps, "You, you, you dare to call me by my full name! I am your aunt!"

"What is your aunt? I can disown my uncle. Go back and tell Han Zhigao to tell the Han family to behave themselves! Don't be so unrepentant when you're about to die!"

Han Zhigao was Wan Baiqian's uncle. Seeing Wan Baiqian address them by their full names so directly, Madam Han was so angry that her nose was crooked and her hands were trembling uncontrollably. "You're cursing our Han family? What's wrong with our Han family? My Muran was only arrested because he was implicated by Liu Wushi, the Assistant Director of the Ministry of Justice! The yamen went to Tingfeng Nunnery to arrest Liu Wushi, and they arrested my Muran on the side!"

Wan Baiqian only realized today that her aunt seemed to be a bit dim-witted. Han Muran's men were caught red-handed and imprisoned, yet Madam Han still thought Han Muran was innocently implicated. It turns out that even at this point, the Han family was still foolish enough to think that their embezzlement and selling of official positions were still going unnoticed!

"Liu Yueniang, you're quite adept at twisting the truth. I underestimated you before, thinking you were just a scheming woman from a secluded household. It seems you can even deceive yourself! Why were the other pilgrims and innocent nuns who were arrested released after giving their statements, while your Han Muran is imprisoned!"

Suddenly, a man of little renown in the crowd said, "I know, because Han Muran is a sorceress who leads dozens of nuns to prostitute themselves in Tingfeng Nunnery, swindling everyone out of their money!"

Upon hearing the man's tone, Wan Baiqian clearly recognized him as a victim. However, Wan Baiqian disregarded this and seized the opportunity to say, "The Demoness's grandmother, mother, and concubine are all here, as are the Demoness's aunts. You're just going to stand by and watch!"

After Wan Baiqian stirred things up, the man who had spoken earlier shouted, "That witch cheated me out of all my money and ruined my family! The witch's family, give me back my money!"

As soon as the man spoke, several other men in the crowd, all in the same boat as him, emerged. They had all squandered their fortunes at Tingfeng Nunnery, and they all shouted for money from the Han family women who were causing trouble there.

The winds shifted instantly. The crowd, who had been pointing and watching the spectacle, were now led astray by a few men who were directing their anger at the Han family. Originally, it wasn't their business, but everyone couldn't stand seeing the witch harm people, so in no time, the women of the Han family became the target of everyone's attacks. The shouts and curses filled the air. The Han family could only deal with the people from the Prince Pang's mansion who didn't fight back. Facing the crowd, they were powerless to resist and quickly fled like rats in the street, looking utterly pathetic.

There are always one or two people in the crowd who can take the lead and relentlessly pursue the enemy. Once someone takes the lead, others will follow suit. Soon the battlefield begins to shift. Judging from this situation, everyone is chasing after the Han family!

Wan Baiqian snorted disdainfully, turned around, and the gate of the Prince Pang's mansion was opened from the inside. Wan Baiqian strode in, and Boss Qian, who finally breathed a sigh of relief, followed closely behind, afraid that Wan Baiqian would throw him away!

Meanwhile, Da Yan searched around the main gate and found two gold hairpins. The hairpins felt heavy in his hands, and he grinned from ear to ear! Just as he was laughing so hard he lost his bearings, the carriage that Shang Xi had used to leave the mansion returned! Originally, they were going to go around to the side gate, but seeing that everyone at the main gate had left, the coachman stopped the carriage at the main gate!

When Shang tide and Yu Hua got off the car and saw that it was the main entrance and that it had returned to its usual quiet state, they both breathed a sigh of relief!

Upon seeing the two, Da Yan excitedly called out, "Your Highness, Steward Yu Hua!"

Yu Hua asked, "When did these people leave?"

Big Eyes said, "Just left!"

Yu Hua completely relaxed. "Thank goodness they left. I thought they were going to keep making a scene until very late!"

Big Eyes grinned and said, "It was Grandma who chased them away!"

Shang tide asked, "Is my sister here?"

Big Eyes reported truthfully, "The Prince sent them. The old lady has contracted a strange illness and has stopped speaking for some reason!"

Upon hearing this, Shang tide strode into the Prince's mansion, with Yu Hua following closely behind!

The woman with the large eyes raised her hand; it was a pair of gold hairpins. "Your Highness..."

No one listened to him. Shang tide and Yu Hua hurried towards the old lady's courtyard. At that moment, they were of one mind and thought the same thing. They hoped that the old lady wouldn't get a relapse of her old illness due to anxiety, because then her children would suffer!

When Shang tide and Yu Hua entered the room, they found Cheng Feng and Boss Qian sitting opposite Madam Wan, chatting and laughing. Wan Baiqian was serving Madam Wan her meal. The atmosphere in the room was harmonious, and there was nothing unusual.

Yu Hua was very straightforward. "Didn't they say the old lady had a strange illness that made her unable to speak? I think she's a perfectly fine person!"

When Xing'er told Cheng Feng, she said that the old lady sat there without saying a word. Da Yan also told Cheng Feng the same thing. How come after Da Yan filtered it several times, the old lady Wan got a strange illness?

"It's Big Eyes talking nonsense!" Cheng Feng didn't even need to think to know that Big Eyes had distorted the truth!

Yu Hua said, "It was Da Yan! Da Yan told us himself! Shang Xi and I rushed back as soon as we heard it! We thought the old lady had a relapse of her old illness!"

Old Madam Wan had no choice but to maintain her composure in front of her son, daughter-in-law, daughter, and son-in-law. "You've all made a fuss by coming to my courtyard. I'll be just as usual. Your worries are unnecessary! I'm getting old, and I'm not as talkative as you young people. I'm not the only one like this at my age; most people my age prefer peace and quiet and dislike crowds! Don't be so suspicious of me anymore. I'm perfectly fine! Don't call the imperial physician so often. If Lianxing finds out, he'll only distract me! Feng'er, send a message to your uncle later and tell him I'm alright. It would be even better if you could go in person; I'm afraid she might come back if she gets worried!"
