Chapter 114: 131

131 Trouble

Kong Rui sat in a corner of the teahouse with a bamboo hat on. Chao Bai, who was sitting opposite her, held a cup of tea as he listened to the discussions of the people around them.

After a while, a small group of guards from the palace passed by the teahouse. The shop owner coughed lightly, and the shop instantly fell silent.

Kong Rui stood up, paid for the tea, and left with Chao Bai.

When the two of them returned to Fragrant Garden, they saw Su Niang standing outside their room. The two of them exchanged looks, but before they could speak, they heard the madam’s anxious voice behind them. “Master, there are guests causing trouble outside. We really can’t deal with them. You…”

As the procuress spoke, she stepped into the backyard and realized that Chao Bai and Kong Rui were standing in the courtyard.

She was stunned for a moment. When she looked up, she saw Su Niang standing at the door of the master’s room in a daze.

The procuress seemed to have forgotten what she had wanted to do earlier and she questioned Su Niang, “Why are you standing outside the master’s room so sneakily?”

Kong Rui couldn’t help but secretly praise her. The madam’s question saved them the trouble.

Su Niang looked aggrieved. Her head was lowered, and she kept rubbing her hands together.

Seeing Su Niang like this, Kong Rui no longer felt pity.

Some people liked to play the pity card, but in reality, there was no telling what they were scheming about.

Seeing that Kong Rui and the others didn’t react, Su Niang looked up at Kong Rui timidly. “I just wanted to see if there was anyone in Master’s room.”

When the procuress heard this, she immediately lost her temper.

She walked forward angrily and flicked at Su Niang’s forehead a few times. “Are you trying to steal something while the master is not in the room? Let me tell you, I’ve been watching you two for a long time! Don’t think you can enter and leave the master’s room to steal things just because you moved to the backyard! Even if a single needle is lost, I’ll settle the score with you two!”

After Su Niang’s forehead was poked by the procuress, her body leaned back and she almost fell to the ground a few times.

When Kong Rui saw the procuress’s aggressive demeanor, she finally couldn’t take it anymore. “Didn’t you say that someone was causing trouble? What’s going on?”

When the procuress heard this question, she came back to her senses. “Oh, right! A group of people came and insisted on meeting the owner of Fragrant Garden! I thought about how you guys have just arrived in the capital and probably don’t have any relatives or friends. They’re probably here to cause trouble!”

Kong Rui glanced at Chao Bai and saw him standing rooted to the ground, as if he had become a wooden statue.

Kong Rui felt a little helpless and asked the procuress, “Do you know who it is?”

The procuress shook her head. “I’ve never seen them before!”

Kong Rui couldn’t help but frown.

Fragrant Garden was one of the most well-informed places in the capital. Where did this person who even the procuress had never seen before come from?

Before Kong Rui could ask further, a servant scrambled in from outside. “Oh no! A fight broke out outside!”

When the procuress heard this, she lifted her skirt and ran out without waiting for Chao Bai and Kong Rui to react.

“Don’t break my things! They’re all valuable treasures!”

Kong Rui glanced at Chao Bai, then the two of them rushed towards the hall, leaving Su Niang standing there in a daze.

In the hall of Fragrant Garden, there were already more than ten people fighting. One group was wearing green clothes, and most of them were holding swords or fans. The other group was wearing plain gray robes, and each of them held a horsetail whisk.

As Kong Rui watched the two groups of people, she couldn’t help but frown.

Why did these two groups of people look like people from Haolan Academy and the Profound Heaven Sect?

Why did they come here to fight?
