[Quick Wear] Daily Cleansing of Trash

Chapter 365 Falling in love with the male protagonist's "golden finger" 9

Shangguan Xuan made a "please go ahead" gesture to the man, pulled his horse to the side and walked towards the city guards who were watching the excitement, while at the same time winked at Qingquan, his servant.

Qingquan nodded and quickly got into the crowd.

He bowed to one of the city guards, who had a big beard and looked like the captain, and asked, "How long will it take to get out of the city?" Then he pointed to his carriage with his chin.

The bearded man who was being questioned was stunned. He turned his head and happened to see the Shangguan family nameplate hanging on the corner of the carriage.

"My dear, just wait a moment, we will be out of the city soon!" The bearded man was so frightened that he could not speak clearly, and hurriedly asked other soldiers to make way.

Shangguan Xuan bowed again, turned around and pulled the horse back.

Little White Flower saw the big bearded man's awe of Shangguan Xuan and didn't want to miss out on this fat sheep. She locked eyes with the man and, using the remaining strength from her struggle, pounced on Shangguan Xuan: "Young Master..."

Shangguan Xuan jumped up suddenly: "Hey!"

He moved so fast and agilely that the little white flower didn't even touch the corner of his clothes.

The bearded man was almost frightened to death by this scene. He called his brothers to grab the man and Little White Flower, blocked their mouths, and dragged them to the city wall, clearing the way.

Shangguan Xuan sneered, staring at Xiao Baihua and the man, and said unhappily: "Do you take me for a fool? Qinghe!"

Shangguan Xuan's servant Qinghe hurried over and asked, "Sir?"

Shangguan Xuan ordered: "Suppress them!"

"Yes."

Qinghe and three others stepped forward together, one dealt with Xiao Baihua, and the other two held down the bully.

Little White Flower was pressed to the ground and suddenly panicked.

She knew she had run into a tough opponent this time, so she immediately changed her mind, raised her head with difficulty, and with tears streaming down her face, she begged for help from the people watching the excitement around her: "Help!"

He looks as pitiful as he can be.

Sure enough, the righteous people appeared.

"stop!"

Several young men dressed in rich attire appeared before the crowd. The tall, thin man in the lead said to Shangguan Xuan, "Shangguan Xuan, what law did they break that you would do this to them?"

Seeing this, Little White Flower took the opportunity to break free from the clamp and threw herself at the feet of the tall and thin man: "Master, please save me!"

The man's sense of justice instantly surged when the beautiful woman asked for help. He pointed at Shangguan Xuan and started cursing, "Shangguan Xuan, the girl is already very pitiful. Not only did you not save her, you even resorted to violence against her. This is really too much!"

These words were so contagious that the people around were talking about it.

Shangguan Xuan was speechless when he saw the person coming: "Rong Dingwei, are you a fool?"

Rong Dingwei, the nephew of Concubine Rong and the cousin of the second prince Gu Hongyao, is a well-known person in the circle who is stupid and has a lot of money.

He was about to go out of town hunting with a few followers, but he saw "someone else's kid" Shangguan Xuan "bullying others by taking advantage of his power", so he immediately ran out to show his presence.

Hearing Shangguan Xuan scolding him, Rong Dingwei was furious and pointed at Shangguan Xuan and shouted: "Shangguan Xuan, how dare you scold me?!"

Shangguan Xuan sighed and bowed to the people around him. "Everyone, I heard a news report a while ago that two thieves, a man and a woman, have appeared in the vicinity of the capital. They often use the method of setting up a trap to deceive the people, and many people have been harmed so far!"

He pointed at the little white flower and the bully, whose faces turned pale upon hearing this, and shouted, "This woman and this bully are clearly in cahoots. They are the thieves!"

"No... no..." Little White Flower refused to admit it and shook her head pitifully, "I don't know what you are talking about..."

She turned to look at Rong Dingwei: "Sir, I am innocent~~~~~" Her tone was full of twists and turns.

Rong Dingwei looked left and right, scratched his head, and finally closed his mouth silently and moved towards Shangguan Xuan.

Shangguan Xuan: (￢_￢)

He rolled his eyes at Rong Dingwei, strode up to Xiao Baihua's damn "father", and lifted the torn mat.

"what!"

The people were frightened by his action and quickly took three steps back. Rong Dingwei was also shocked and shouted, "The dead are the greatest. Shangguan Xuan, are you crazy?!"

Shangguan Xuan squatted in front of the corpse and observed it for a while, then turned to ask Xiao Baihua: "You said this is your father?"

Little White Flower felt uneasy, but she still nodded with gritted teeth: "Yes... yes..."

Shangguan Xuan rolled his eyes and sneered, "Unfortunately, I happen to know this person. He's Old Man Zhang from the east side of the city. He lived in a dilapidated temple for many years and just passed away three days ago!"

He stood up and walked over to Xiao Baihua, asking sternly, "Old Man Zhang clearly has no children. The household register at the Jingzhao government office clearly states this. So where did you get your daughter from?!"

Little White Flower was so frightened that her face turned pale and she stammered, unable to speak.

Shangguan Xuan continued, "Not only did you commit fraud, you also stole the body. Your crimes are truly unforgivable!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the people around were immediately in an uproar.

The ancients believed that the dead were the greatest and should be buried in peace, and the people hated stealing corpses.

They looked at Shangguan Xuan with a righteous look on his face, and then at the panicked and guilty Little White Flower and the bully, and it was impossible to tell who was right and who was wrong.

Seeing that the situation was not right, the bully took out a dagger from his boot while no one was paying attention and slashed at the person who was holding him.

The man was unable to dodge and his arm was scratched by the dagger. Seeing this, Shangguan Xuan flew over and kicked the bully hard.

"Pfft!"

The bully was knocked to the ground and couldn't get up for a long time.

Little White Flower was so frightened that she sat on the ground with her whole body limp.

At this time, people from the Jingzhao government office arrived.

After some communication, the two men were taken away. Shangguan Xuan helped the city guards evacuate the crowd, and normal traffic soon resumed at the city gate.

Rong Dingwei watched in awe as Old Man Zhang's body was carried away. He swallowed hard, then awkwardly approached Shangguan Xuan and started to make small talk: "Do you really know that Old Man Zhang?"

Shangguan Xuan rolled his eyes at him and said, "I don't know him."

Rong Dingwei: “Ah???”

Shangguan Xuan sighed and patted Rong Dingwei on the shoulder: "Don't meddle in the affairs of adults, go and have fun, ah~"

Rong Dingwei: ...

He was so angry. Although he didn't understand what Shangguan Xuan meant, he felt insulted!

Shangguan Xuan returned to the carriage and whispered, "Mom, we'll be out of the city soon."

Madam Shangguan nodded: "Well, thank you for your hard work, my son."

The team leaving the city moved forward slowly, and soon, the three carriages of the Shangguan family left the city gate.

Rong Dingwei stood there thinking for a long time, but still couldn't figure out whether Shangguan Xuan knew Old Man Zhang. He could only scratch his head anxiously.

On the way, Shangguan Feiyun couldn't hold back the doubts in his heart. He lifted the curtain and asked Shangguan Xuan, who was riding beside the carriage: "Second brother, how did you find out that there was something wrong with them?"

Shangguan Xuan saw that the others also had eager expressions on their faces, so he smiled helplessly, and simply stopped riding the horse and got into the carriage to sit with his mother and sister.

Shangguan Hui, who was behind him, saw this and hurried over, shouting, "Me too! Me too!"

Fortunately, the carriage was big enough and there were still empty seats for six people to squeeze in.

Shangguan Xuan knocked his brother on the head and said, "I was trying to trick them!"
