But since Sima Lian is still on his side, he is not worried about those civil servants making trouble.

"I will send someone to investigate this matter, so you don't have to worry."

Rong Jiao responded. With Xuanyuan Jin's words, she could feel more at ease.

Looking at Xuanyuan Jin's leaving figure, Rong Jiao always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't figure it out for a while, so she could only give up for the time being.

Xuanyuan Jin found out the reason for this incident on the second day. When he learned that Murong Ting was behind it, Xuanyuan Jin couldn't help but frown.

"Go tell Prime Minister Sima about this and he will handle it."

The secret guard left and told Sima Lian what Murong Ting had done.

When Rong Jiao learned that the incident about her stay in the brothel was actually spread by Murong Ting, she became furious.

"Damn bitch, I knew she had no good intentions!"

"No wonder Master Sima doesn't want to touch her, such a stupid woman can only do bad things!"

Previously, Wang Min blocked Murong Ting's people for the sake of the reputation of the Eighth Prince's Mansion.

But if Wang Min and Xuanyuan Jin have separated, she will naturally not care about this matter anymore, and the reputation of the Eighth Prince's Palace has nothing to do with her.

And the Eighth Prince's Mansion didn't have a hostess who was in charge, so this incident actually got worse.

In the end, it was the emperor who challenged Xuanyuan Jin and reprimanded him in the palace before he had the matter suppressed.

Since Rong Jiao cannot be sentenced to death now, she is still a member of the royal family.

The things she did naturally brought disgrace to the royal family.

Thinking of how the people in the capital would talk about their Xuanyuan family, the emperor had not given Xuanyuan Jin a good look these days.

Xuanyuan Jin was also in a bad mood. Although he knew that Rong Jiao had once disguised herself as a man and entered a brothel, he did not expect that Rong Jiao could do such a thing.

It's just a matter of drinking and chatting with a man, but you can actually cuddle up on the bed and rest. Do you really think that you are a man?

But he couldn't break up with Rong Jiao. Now he still needed the support of Prince Rong behind Rong Jiao.

Only with the support of Prince Rong can more of these powerful people in the capital defect to him.

Even though the entire capital was secretly saying that he was a coward, Xuanyuan Jin didn't care.

In the face of the great cause of the future, what do these rumors mean?

However, Xuanyuan Jin didn't care, but Rong Jiao felt very angry.

She gathered the people in her courtyard together. Seeing the cowering appearance of the slaves, Rong Jiao felt happy in her heart.

In just one night, two corpses were carried out from Rongjiao Courtyard.

It is said that when the two people died, their faces were full of ferocity and terror, as if they had been abused in some way.

When something like this happened in the house, Wang Shun did not dare to hide it and immediately reported the matter to Xuanyuan Jin.

Xuanyuan Jin couldn't help but frown when he learned that Rong Jiao actually killed two maids in the house.

"Who else knows about this?"

Wang Shun was stunned for a moment, and he vaguely understood in his heart that he was afraid that the prince would not pursue the matter.

"Back to your lord, the news was blocked last night. No one knows about it except the people in Aunt Rong's courtyard."

After hearing this, Xuanyuan Jin nodded with satisfaction.

"That's good. Give more money to those two families and don't let them tell anyone about it."

Wang Shun complied, then bowed his body and went out.

But when he came out of the study, it was already raining lightly outside.

Looking at the sky like this, Wang Shun couldn't help but sigh.

These people are nothing more than ants in the eyes of the powerful.

When Murong Ting learned that Rong Jiao had become that rat crossing the street, everyone shouted for beating her.

Even the noble gentlemen who were close to her in the past are now locked up at home and are not allowed to have any contact with her.

Murong Ting smiled happily, "I knew that bitch was a shameless person. She actually sent someone to deliver the message in the middle of the night. She is really bold."

Murong Ting originally thought that after this incident happened, Rong Jiao would at least settle down for a while.

But she didn't expect Rong Jiao to be so bold. She actually sent people to find those noble gentlemen at night. This was really...

"I don't know if she is smart or stupid. Such a thing actually tries to harm others. Huh, as expected, her dirty body can't do anything clean."

The grandmother on the side was quite shocked when she learned that Rong Jiao dared to go to those noble gentlemen after the incident in the brothel came out.

Just thinking about Rong Jiao's past temperament, it's not surprising that she could do such a thing.

"Madam, when the master learned that you sent someone to follow him, he didn't say much."

When Murong Ting was in a good mood, her face darkened involuntarily when she heard this.

When she sent people to follow Sima Lian before, she never let them hide on purpose. Even if Sima Lian discovered her, she was not afraid.

She was even prepared for Sima Lian to come to her and ask for help, but Sima Lian didn't come to her yard for a long time, which made Murong Ting a little frustrated.

Now that she heard that Sima Lian had already known about this matter, but was just indifferent to it, the tea cup in Murong Ting's hand immediately fell to the ground.

After following Sima Lian for so many years, how could she not know Sima Lian's nature?

Sima Lian's attitude was obviously that he just ignored her.

But they were obviously husband and wife, but Sima Lian's attitude towards her was no better than that of a stranger. How could she be reconciled?

The grandma on the side couldn't help but sigh when she saw Murong Ting's expression.

"Madam, I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding."

Murong Ting snorted coldly, "What's the misunderstanding? He clearly knew that I sent someone to follow him to the teahouse, and yet he was so indifferent. He chose to completely ignore me!"

Because of the previous incident, Sima Lian rarely quarreled with her.

But now, the feeling of a dull knife cutting flesh made Murong Ting even more suffocated.

She clenched her hands tightly, and she seemed not to notice as her nails dug deeply into her flesh.

The grandma on the side felt distressed, but she had watched her master grow up.She knows her master's nature better than anyone else.

At this time, the master, no matter who persuades him, it is useless.

After a long while, grandma sighed.He asked the maid beside him to find a medicine box and treated Murong Ting's wounds by himself.

Thinking of the old man Murong Fu was now, Grandma felt sour in her heart.

"Madam, you can't keep staring at the master. Think about the old master in the house, the minister and the young master. If there is something wrong with you, what will they do?"

Grandma couldn't help but blush as she spoke, especially when she thought about the old man's health getting worse day by day. How could she not be worried?

When Murong Ting heard what her grandma said, she didn't know what she thought of, and her expression moved slightly.
