Chapter 244 Do you know your mistake?
Xie Mengwan thought that Zhao Yunrong, who had always indulged her without limits, would definitely comply with her this time, but she didn't expect him to still have a serious expression, "This person is not an ordinary servant in the palace, but also a guest of the king. How can you be so rude?"
Xie Mengwan's tone of voice was relatively calm when he said this, but the tone of his next sentence suddenly took a sharp turn, as if it contained thunderous anger, "Why don't you let me go?"
The servants who originally wanted to please Xie Mengwan felt their scalps go numb and were so scared that they immediately let go and stepped aside.
Xiao Guoer finally gained her freedom and slowly stood up from the ground. The burning pain on the back of her hand made the anger accumulate in her chest, but it dissipated a little because the Eighth Prince seemed to be making the decision for her.
Huh? I thought this Eighth Prince would stand behind Miss Xie regardless of right or wrong and support her, but I didn't expect that he would be fair and just sometimes?
Xie Mengwan obviously didn't expect her brother Rong to speak to her so harshly, and she couldn't accept such an attitude, and he even humiliated her in front of so many servants! She immediately burst into tears in disbelief, "Brother Rong? Why are you..."
Zhao Yunrong caught a glimpse of a red and swollen area on the back of Xiao Guoer's hand with a shiny blister. He lost all patience with Xie Mengwan and became angry.
"Everyone else go down."
Xiao Guoer ran out immediately.
Her hands hurt so much that she wanted to find cold water!
When only Zhao Yunrong and Xie Mengwan were left in the hall, Xie Mengwan immediately burst into tears. She sobbed and wiped her tears while taking two steps towards Zhao Yunrong, wanting to throw herself into his arms for comfort.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Yunrong took two steps back, his face was cold, and his voice was chilling, "Do you know you are wrong?"
Xie Mengwan cried even harder, stamping her feet and crying, "Brother Rong, what's wrong with you? Are you going to treat me like this just for a lowly slave?"
Zhao Yunrong raised his voice a little, sounding even more stern. "I told you, that man is not just a servant, he is a retainer in my palace. You punish him so casually, are you trying to ruin my reputation? Who else with ambitions will dare to join my palace in the future?"
Xie Mengwan's crying gradually subsided. It was the first time she heard Zhao Yunrong talk to her so seriously. She felt a little guilty and stammered in a crying voice, "...I...didn't think so much..."
"In the past, when you punished the maids in this palace, I thought you were just being arrogant and willful, and never paid any attention to you. But I didn't expect that today you would reach out to my retainers. It's also my fault that I was too indulgent towards you. Go home and reflect on yourself now. When you figure out where you went wrong, come back to me."
Xie Mengwan was dumbfounded by such ruthless words. She didn't understand why Brother Rong suddenly seemed like a different person.
Before she could recover from her shock, Zhao Yunrong had already called the servants over again, "Send Miss Xie home properly."
Xie Mengwan looked at Zhao Yunrong's back, who seemed like a stranger. She felt extremely aggrieved, and then gradually a trace of resentment spread over her. It was all because of that despicable villain. She didn't know what kind of poison he had put on Brother Rong that made Brother Rong criticize her so harshly for him!
