A cold voice came from behind the crowd. Shen Yijia’s anger was instantly extinguished when she heard this voice.

She retracted her feet guiltily and lowered her head to stand up straight.

The commoners consciously stepped aside, revealing the masked man standing outside the crowd.

Shen Yijia stole a glance at the person who was slowly approaching her. Her hands kept twisting the hem of her clothes.

She had clearly lied to her beautiful husband and said that she wanted to see Shangguan Han. How did she get caught?

Just as she thought this, someone grabbed her hand and rubbed her head a few times.

Shen Yijia looked up in a daze and met a pair of smiling eyes.

Shen Yijia tilted her head. Her beautiful husband didn’t blame her for lying? She relaxed and couldn’t help but smile. She said sweetly, “Hubby, I didn’t hit anyone.”

She pointed at the people lying on the ground and said seriously, “They fell on their own. I was about to ask them if they wanted me to help them up, right?”

When she looked at the people on the ground, Shen Yijia was still smiling and winked at them.

“Yes, yes, yes. We fell ourselves.”

“No need to help us. We can get up on our own.”

The few of them shivered under her gaze and helped each other get up.

Song Jingchen’s lips curled up into a beautiful smile. When he turned to look at the people who had just stood up, his eyes were already cold.

“General Meng, didn’t you say that there are too many wastelands outside Xunyang City that no one farms?

“I think these people are quite free. Food is scarce in the city. If we open up the wasteland now, we can use it to farm next spring.”

Meng Jiang was stunned. He wanted to say that even if those wastelands were opened, they wouldn’t be able to grow anything, but when Song Jingchen glanced at him, he immediately fell silent.

Meng Jiang also remembered what Zuo Fei and Shen Yijia said.

He glared at those people and scolded, “Young Master Shenzhi is right. I think you’re just too free, that’s why you’re gossiping here.”

After cursing, he turned to the surrounding commoners. “Also, aren’t you busy enough with the matters in the city? Why are you here?”

“In the future, if I hear any of you say that His Highness was harmed by Young Master Shenzhi, I’ll kidnap all of you and bring you to the wasteland outside the city.”

There was still no movement from his subordinates, they all stood there in a daze.

He smacked the back of the head of the person beside him angrily. “What are you waiting for? Tie these people up and throw them outside the city to work on the fields.”

Song Jingchen raised his eyebrows and didn’t refute. He looked at Shen Yijia and said in a low voice, “Let’s go home.”

Shen Yijia did not expect her beautiful husband to see it. Moreover, he was so powerful. She happily held his hand and shook it. “Yes, let’s go home.”

Her home was wherever her husband was.

She did not know why her beautiful husband had arrived so quickly, but when she saw South Wind waiting at the side, she reacted and narrowed her eyes at him.

“Hmph, how dare you accuse me? You’re doomed.” she thought.

South Wind’s face instantly fell, and he looked aggrieved. “It’s really not my fault. Master was the one who took the initiative to ask. It was his fault for coincidentally seeing Young Madam leave the residence. Would I dare to lie to Master?” he thought.

Now, he had offended the young madam instead of his master.

He glanced at the bruised and battered men and couldn’t help but touch his face.

Young Madam seemed to be even more terrifying than Young Master. She always attacked directly before asking questions.

When the two of them returned to the residence, Song Jingchen personally brought over water to wash Shen Yijia’s hands. “If they want to say it, let them. It won’t affect me much. My original intention wasn’t to save them.”

He had long seen through these things. His grandfather had protected the people of Great Xia all his life.

At first, there were still people who praised him, but once someone tried to sow discord, the commoners started to make sarcastic remarks.

This was human nature.

Shen Yijia puffed up her cheeks angrily. She pushed Song Jingchen’s hand away and turned her back to him. “What do you mean by that? Anyway, it’s a fact that you saved them.”

She huffed and continued. “You don’t care, but I do. I can’t even bear to say anything bad about you. Why should they say it? If I hear it again, I’ll beat them up again.”

There was a moment of silence behind her. Shen Yijia thought that Song Jingchen was angry, but she didn’t expect a warm and broad chest to press against her back.

Song Jingchen wrapped his arms around her waist and rested his chin on the top of Shen Yijia’s head. He chuckled and said, “Alright, if you don’t like it, I won’t let them have the chance to badmouth me in the future.”
