Chapter 125: The Disgruntled Woman and the Infatuated Man

Ying'er, take care of yourself. I will save you as soon as possible!

——Chunsheng.

Tch!

He hasn't heard anything for several days. He thought the scholar had given up. Unexpectedly, he sneaked into the mansion!

Sun Shaozong crumpled the note in his hand and looked up and down at Ying’er savorly.

The girl seemed to be kneeling there, but she tried her best to hold up a pair of plump chests. Her collar was also loose, revealing a large attractive white skin. It was obvious that she had already been ”prepared.”

This Ying’er is fifteen years old this year. She was the oldest of several servant girls. Now she seemed to have the most intention!

After looking at it for a long time, Sun Shaozong raised his eyebrows and said, "Since he is your childhood sweetheart, and he is so affectionate and loyal to you, how can you betray him?"

It turned out that this note was handed to him by Ying'er in the morning.

Hearing the word "betrayal," Ying’er's delicate body trembled. She quickly threw her head to the ground and said decisively, "Since I came to the Mansion, I only have the Master and Madam in my heart. What he wants to do is his business, but I dare not deceive the Master."

Sun Shaozong smiled noncommittally and muttered to himself, "The thief stole into my mansion. How dare him!"

He then waved, "You can go down first."

Ying’er quickly got up and twisted her small waist out of the room. From beginning to end, she never thought of helping “Chunsheng” to say anything.

Hehe~

There was a saying in the drama that "the infatuated young lady is a traitor.” Who would have thought that there weren’t less fickle and insincere women in this world.

Xiangling had been quietly grooming on the side, but now she said, "The girl was teased by the Master yesterday. I'm afraid she was thinking of climbing high. If she had a private relationship with the poor scholar who suffered a disaster, how can she compare with being a Concubine in our family?"

"So it's my fault?"

Sun Shaozong stared at her and asked, "If it were you, do you want to be a Concubine or elope with a poor scholar?"

Xiangling deliberately pondered for a while, and then laughed. "It depends on whether you are a poor scholar or a rich man."

Sun Shaozong also laughed. He got up and left the west wing room, but immediately asked someone to find Zhao Zhongji, the second housekeeper, and shouted, "How did you act as a housekeeper? How did you let the thieves in?!"

He then threw the note to Zhao Zhongji.

Zhao Zhongji held it in his palm and looked at it carefully. When he saw the contents of the note clearly, his face turned white for a moment. He knelt on his knees and said, "I am not good at doing things, but I was deceived by the villains. I hope you will punish me severely!"

He then opened his mouth and said, "I also saw that Xu Chunsheng was born as a scholar, and his background was clean, so I hired him as the accountant temporarily. Who would think that this guy was harboring evil!"

Zhao Zhongji was angry, but he also brought some grievances. Nowadays, a scholar with a high official status cherishes his reputation the most. Who would have thought that he came here to steal people?

"I'll talk about your affairs later!"

Sun Shaozong sneered, "First, tie Xu Chunsheng to me!"

Zhao Zhongji quickly got up and went away.

After a while, he heard the noise outside the courtyard, and someone shouted, "Let me go! I have a reputation. How dare you abuse me by lynching me?!"

This scholar was really courageous. He was still so righteous after being caught.

Seeing that Xu Chunsheng was still struggling with his neck when he was taken to the yard, Sun Shaozong asked, "Xu Chunsheng, how long did you kneel outside the barracks that day?"

When Chunsheng was asked, he forgot to struggle for the time being. He only sneered, "How long did I kneel, why does it matter to you?!"

"It has nothing to do with me."

Sun Shaozong smiled and said, "But I once told the general who guarded the gate, if you can persist until the next morning, you can come and take the Ying’er away."

Hearing this, Xu Chunsheng looked like he had opened a grocery store. In a flash, he changed his expression. He was both regretful and skeptical.

After half an hour, he muttered stiffly, "I...... I didn't kneel until dawn, but I didn't leave until the second watch. If you...... If you are willing to help Ying'er and me, I will definitely repay you in the future!"

"Help?"

Sun Shaozong snorted, "If you behave yourself in front of the door and ask for advice, I won't be reluctant to part with a servant girl. But now you have an evil intention to sneak into my house, and you still have the face to mention "help in succeeding?”

After a pause, he said again, "What's more, do you think that Ying'er really wants to go with you?"

Hearing the words in front of Xu Chunsheng, he turned pale. Hearing the words in the back, he became even more furious. He jumped to his feet and shouted, "I have been a childhood sweetheart with Ying'er for a long time. You..."

"Shut up!"

Before he could finish speaking, Ying'er rushed out of the west wing room, came forward, and shouted, "Brother Chunsheng, I’ve always taken you as my own brother, but how can you say such shameless words?!"

"Own... Brother?!"

Xu Chunsheng felt as if a blow had struck him. He stumbled. He would have collapsed to the ground if he hadn't been caught. He then said, "But you... But you clearly..."

Ying'er didn't wait for him to finish saying, and then said coldly, "Xu Chunsheng, please don't talk nonsense anymore. You have polluted my innocence for no reason. What good can it do to you?"

Xu Chunsheng stared at her for a while, only to see that the girl next door who used to wear a cloth hairpin had already changed into a pink skirt of thin silk. Although the color was better than in the past, there was no tenderness between the eyebrows.

"Sigh!"

Xu Chunsheng finally sighed and said, "I was wrong. I shouldn't have bothered you."

Then he earnestly begged Sun Shaozong, "Please take good care of Ying'er, My Lord."

This was really a seed of infatuation.

But…

"I don't need you to teach me how to behave."

As Sun Shaozong said this, he waved his hand like a fly again, "Send him to the government and lock him up first. Then let Master Cheng write a document and ask the Hebei academic officer to take back his official title, and then punish him!"

Hearing this, Xu Chunsheng suddenly changed his face color again and said, "Lord, I'm just being rude for a while, and I haven't done anything. How can you break my career?!"

This fright, however, was still above the talent!

Because the only way out for a scholar was to pass the Imperial Examination for an official. If he was indeed deprived of his official position, his future fate might not be better than that of ordinary victims outside the city!

Sun Shaozong, however, ignored it and turned around and entered the Western Chamber.

Ying’er followed closely and closed the door neatly, but he still heard Xu Chunsheng crying out, "Lord, Lord, you can't do this! You can't do this!"

This Chunsheng was indeed worthy of sympathy.

But that was when it happened to others. When it came to himself, Sun Shaozong would not be merciful.

If Xu Chunsheng was bypassed lightly this time, who knows if there would be Wang Chunsheng and Song Chunsheng coming to steal the beauty from their families in the future?

Sun Shaozong was not interested in that green-colored hat!

However, this farce made him understand some doubts in his mind.
