Under the guidance of the steward of the palace, Xiao Rui came to a courtyard in a remote corner. As soon as he entered, he heard sarcasm from the main wing.

"It's hard to guard against house thieves! You even stretched your dirty hands into the palace!"

"Are you relying on the support of His Royal Highness, so your hands and feet are not clean?"

"What kind of master there is, there is what kind of servant! Oh, you are still not convinced!"

"You still dare to stare at me with your eyes, you are courting death!"

boom boom...

Then came the sound of punching and kicking.

Xiao Rui was furious, kicked open the door and rushed in.

I saw Gao Quan was tied up and huddled on the ground, his body was covered in scars and his face was bruised. The three servants were still beating him, but they stopped when they saw someone kicking in the door.

"Seventh... Seventh Highness..."

The three of them trembled in fright, and almost knelt down, only to hold back their panic when they saw the steward behind Xiao Rui.

"You are presumptuous!" The steward yelled ahead of time: "It depends on the owner to beat the dog. Did I ask you to lock up the people and let you do it? There is no reason for it. I will definitely report to the princess and punish you."

After finishing speaking, the steward smiled and said to Xiao Rui: "Don't worry, Your Highness, I will definitely sue the prince and princess to punish these dog slaves! Thinking about it, they are also filled with righteous indignation. Gao Quan failed your trust and ruined your reputation. When he was angry, he taught him a little lesson A bit!"

"Your Highness, the villain didn't steal anything!" Gao Quan raised his head and shouted, his eyes were so determined.

"The villain is willing to die to show his ambition, I didn't steal it!" Gao Quan didn't cry when he was beaten just now, but now that he saw Xiao Rui, he couldn't stand the grievance of being wronged anymore.

Xiao Rui clenched his fists, the anger in his heart made him grit his teeth.

"Let him go." Xiao Rui's voice was cold.

"This..." The steward hesitated for a moment and asked, "Your Highness, do you want to wait..."

Snapped!

Xiao Rui raised his palm and slapped the steward directly on the face, causing him to stagger and lie on the ground.

The steward covered his red and swollen face and stood there in a daze.

"One last time, let me go!"

Xiao Rui gritted his teeth and shouted.

The steward was caught by Xiao Rui's gaze, and shouted in fright: "Let me go, let me go..."

The three servants quickly untied Gao Quan.

Xiao Rui stepped forward to support Gao Quan, and asked, "Can you stand up?"

Gao Quan burst into tears, trying not to choke himself, then nodded vigorously in response, enduring the pain in his body and stood up tremblingly.

"Can I go?" Xiao Rui asked.

"Yes." Gao Quan agreed.

Xiao Rui turned around and left, Gao Quan followed suit.

Xiao Rui went back to his residence first, smashed the Four Treasures of the Study and the jade articles rewarded by Emperor Xia yesterday, and threw them all into the garden water.

"Your Highness, this...this is disrespectful behavior!" Gao Quan said in horror.

Looking at the blisters on the debris sinking to the bottom, Xiao Rui shouted: "You want to punish me? Okay... let's go!"

After finishing speaking, go to the courtyard where Xiao Feng usually lives and meet Cao Wan.

When he came to the Crescent Gate, he was stopped by the guards.

"Your Highness, my concubine is destined to die. She has a cold and is not suitable for seeing guests." The guard said forcefully.

Xiao Rui's anger still persisted.

But he also knew that with his current ability, he couldn't force his way unscrupulously.

"Your Highness, I'm fine, let's go back." Gao Quan urged quickly.

Xiao Rui gave him a reassuring look, and then shouted to the guard: "Go and report that the treasure rewarded by His Majesty yesterday was lost in Duan Wang's Mansion. His Highness's servants searched everywhere, and they were said to have stolen it. Since the princess is sick, the Queen Brother is not in the mansion, so His Highness will enter the palace to ask the saint. Then His Majesty will ask, hmph, stealing the things bestowed by the emperor, it seems that there is also a nest of snakes and rats in Duan Wang's mansion."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Rui turned around and left.

The guards blocking the way were sweating profusely, and this matter was going to be brought to Emperor Xia's place. Damn, there's big trouble.

Several people hurriedly went to look for Princess Cao Wan.

Cao Wan was drinking tea, and she arranged everything in the morning. He couldn't understand the Seventh Highness Xiao Rui, who provided food and lodging for him, and let it be fine if he didn't help his husband, and even showed off in front of Emperor Xia secretly, it's really abominable.

"Princess, it's not good, it's not good..." The guard begged to see him outside the door.

"What's the noise?" Cao Wan asked with a frown, and the maid beside her hurriedly opened the door and scolded several guards.

The guard entered the house, knelt in the living room, and said anxiously: "Princess, His Royal Highness claimed that the treasures rewarded by His Majesty yesterday were stolen. He ordered Gao Quan to investigate and find them, but he was falsely accused of stealing. Now he is about to enter the palace to plead guilty, and said A nest of snakes and rats in the Duanwang Mansion."

"What?" Cao Wan was startled, and quickly stood up.

Originally, this matter was taken over by Prince Duan's mansion, and Gao Quan was caught stealing by "getting stolen goods together", which made Xiao Rui lose face, and he didn't have the face to make trouble again. But now, on the pretext of stealing the imperial treasure, he counterattacked and poured dirty water into Duanwang's mansion.

Come on, come on, hurt each other.

Whether it's the servant Gao Quan who stole the treasures of the palace, or the stolen items from the palace of the king, it's a big deal. Xiao Rui eats enough for one person and the whole family is not hungry. Come on, it's fun.

Cao Wan panicked and wiped off her sweat. She was worried that once this matter got to Emperor Xia, even though it was not a big deal, it would cause him to be dissatisfied with Xiao Feng, and even...

"Go, stop Xiao Rui! No, I'll go myself!"

Cao Wan roared and ran out.

Xiao Rui really going to the palace to sue?

Of course not.

Prince Duan's mansion is shameless, but he himself is shameless.

He just wanted to vent his anger, so he deliberately slowed down, allowing Cao Wan to chase after him.

"Xiao Rui, seventh brother, seventh brother..." Cao Wan called out his name, feeling that it was not friendly, and quickly changed the address.

Xiao Rui stopped and looked at Cao Wan who was out of breath.

As expected of a princess, she has a beautiful appearance and looks like a lady of everyone. But this heart is vicious.

"Seventh brother, where are you going?" Cao Wan asked.

Xiao Rui sneered and said: "The emperor's sister-in-law has caught the cold, so I don't want to disturb her, and the emperor's brother is not at home. Naturally, I have to go to the palace to plead guilty. You also know that losing the treasure bestowed by the emperor is a crime of disrespect."

"Since it is a crime of disrespect, why make it known to everyone? Wouldn't it be even worse if you offend His Majesty?" Cao Wan explained: "It's better to know this matter, you know me, don't worry about it." Disturbing Your Majesty."

"How can that be done!" Xiao Rui shouted: "This personal servant of mine stole the palace while looking for the imperial gift, and was stolen by the guards of the palace. It's really unreasonable! I will tell the truth to my father and cut off his hands. I am not good at employing people, and I have to ask myself to be punished."

Cao Wan twitched her lips, and said with a smile, "Seventh brother, don't worry. The guards of the royal residence thought Gao Quan was stealing when they saw him sneaking around. Now it is clear that he was looking for something. Since it is not stealing, why bother?" Not happy. If you make a fuss with His Majesty, if you employ people poorly, it means that you have a problem with your vision. If Your Majesty knows about it, he will be disappointed.

"Then you won't enter the palace?" Xiao Rui asked.

"No, no." Cao Wan laughed.

Xiao Rui squinted his eyes, and said suddenly: "It's fine if you don't enter the palace. Since you have wronged Gao Quan, those who beat him and those who arrested him must give me an explanation!"

"What explanation?" Cao Wan asked.

"Slap your hands until you bleed." Xiao Rui said coldly.

When Cao Wan heard this, her face became extremely ugly.
