Chapter 966: Protecting His Wife

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Did she beat her up alone?” Old Master Song asked Butler Yang.

Relying on other people’s love for her, Princess Linghui made a grander entrance than the crown prince. There were a total of 13 palace maids and eunuchs standing in this hall with swollen faces, asking him to make the decision. In addition to Princess Linghui, who had fainted and was carried to the neighboring ward for treatment, there were 14 people present.

Little Jiajia won against those numbers. Was his little granddaughter-in-law so powerful?

Butler Yang was speechless. “Old Master, is your focus wrong?” he thought.

However, when he received the news and went out, these people were already lying on the ground wailing. Only the future heiress was sitting on Princess Linghui’s body and waving their small fists. He really did not know if anyone would help.

Just as he was about to call the guards in to ask, the dozen or so palace maids and eunuchs began a new round of condemnation.

They spoke one after another and explained everything.

In short, Little Jiajia was the only one who did it.

Actually, Little Jiajia did not hit Princess Linghui at first.

After all, they were not in the Xuanyuan Kingdom. It could be said that they were defending themselves. However, it was different for the princess of a country. When the time came, she would be accused of offending her superiors and cause trouble for the Bulwark Duke’s Residence.

Unexpectedly, Princess Linghui said that Brother Chen was hers, which angered Little Jiajia. In the end, she was the one who suffered the most punches.

They naturally did not say anything about this, let alone mention that Princess Linghui had deliberately caused trouble first.

Little Jiajia stood at the side and held her fingers without retorting, giving off the illusion that she was alone and at a loss for words.

Not to mention the soft-hearted Madam Li, even Old Master Song, an iron-blooded old man who had spent half his life fighting, could not bear to see her like this.

He frowned unhappily.

Hong Qiao and the other head palace maid looked at each other and thought that he was dissatisfied with Little Jiajia hitting someone. They secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

The people of the Duke’s residence had always been protective of their own. If the Old Master insisted on protecting that little girl and investigated who was right and who was wrong, this matter would really be difficult to handle.

From the side, did the old master’s att.i.tude mean that this girl did not look like the future princess consort that the rumors said?

With this understanding, the two of them felt even more confident.

Hong Qiao said, “This girl beat up the royal princess and offended her superiors. Old Master, please…”

“Grandfather.” Song Jingchen came in from outside and saw Little Jiajia standing there quietly. He pursed his lips and said, “I carefully understood what happened just now. Someone bullied her first. She’s a child who was bullied by more than ten people. It’s hard to tell on the surface, but she might have suffered serious internal injuries. Grandfather, it’s better to hire an imperial physician to examine her.”

Old Master Song, who was about to instruct someone to send Princess Linghui back to the palace, raised his thick eyebrows and nodded in agreement.

Hong Qiao said anxiously, “Old Master, where did you hear such distorted words? It’s clearly this brat…’

“Why? Do you think the crown prince is lying?” Song Jingchen interrupted her with a straight face.

Hong Qiao was stunned. She could not answer this question..
