The guards stopped barging in and turned around to bow respectfully towards An Lingge.
An Lingge's expression was unhappy, her gaze sweeping across them, "Come over and tell me, why did you guys barge into my Parasol House? If you don't give me a suitable reason, I'll have father beat you guys up twenty times!"
"Please calm your anger, Eldest Miss." His square face was now filled with difficulty, "We have also received orders from our aunt, so we came here to search for Parasol House, and did not intend to offend you."
"I see that all of you have the guts to even barge into the house of the young miss, and you still say that you didn't intend to offend the young miss?" Bi Zhu's eyes were wide open, her berating manner was extremely imposing, "Young miss has a soft and easy to talk with, don't think that she is someone easy to bully, she can't even see her identity clearly, and wants to crawl to the young miss's side to act mighty."
Her words were merciless. The guard's face was slightly red as he felt extremely embarrassed.
"But, but Aunt ordered us to come here to search for Parasol House, we had no choice but to come!" He bent over, sincere.
Although the Madam Wang had taken away the authority of the treasury from the Madam Li, the rest of the Prince An's Palace were still under the control of the Madam Li. The guards responsible for the safety of the Prince An's Palace were naturally also under the control of the Madam Li.
An Lingge slightly raised her brows, his eyes revolving with light as her gaze landed on the guard. "Was it aunt who ordered you all to come and search my courtyard?"
"That's right, Eldest Miss. If it weren't for Aunt's orders, how would we dare offend Eldest Miss? It's just that we had Aunt's orders, so we had no choice but to obey. I hope Eldest Miss doesn't make things difficult for this lowly person."
"Naturally, I will not make things difficult for you." An Lingge curled her lips, but did not move, "But you guys should always tell me, did Aunt send people to search everyone's courtyard, or did she just send people to my courtyard?"
The guards looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
Bi Zhu sat with her hands on her hips, staring coldly at the crowd. "What, you can't even answer this question, could it be that you made up a random reason to fool around with me?" "There are quite a few treasures in Miss's room. If I ask you to take a few items with you …
"I don't dare, I don't dare." The guard denied it again and again, he considered his words, and then secretly raised his eyes to look at An Lingge's expression, "Reporting to Young Miss, Aunt should have only sent us to search your courtyard, there shouldn't be anything wrong with the others …. "Unusual."
If there was nothing out of the ordinary, then it meant that no one had been sent out to search the courtyard?
An Lingge's face carried a faint smile, and her pair of deep black eyes shone, causing the guard to feel weak from the bottom of her heart.
"There's nothing out of the ordinary with the others, but Aunt has sent someone alone to search my courtyard. What does that mean?"
She had a cold expression on her face, and a sharp aura surrounded her body. The guard was shocked, and Nuo lowered her head, not daring to look at her again.
"I'm not too clear about Aunt's intentions, but I'm just following orders. I hope First Miss can cooperate." The guard lowered his head, but had always insisted on entering An Lingge's courtyard to search.
Bi Zhu sneered, and looked at the group of guards with fierce eyes, "For the First Miss to cooperate with you, what right do you have to get the First Miss to cooperate? Your status is honorable. If a guard like you wanted to break into the young miss' courtyard and search, and if you want the young miss to cooperate with you, who gave you the guts to do so? "
In the past few days, she had established her might within the Parasol House, so scolding people was also much sharper. With just a few sentences, it made the guard feel embarrassed, and he was rendered speechless.
"Whatever, I won't make things difficult for the two of you." "Since this is an order from my aunt, call my aunt over and give me a reason to search my courtyard. If it's alright, I'll let you in."
They were just a few small guards, how could they dare to question Aunt Li?
A few of the guards looked bitter, but just as they were about to plead with An Lingge, the voice of the Madam Li came from behind them.
"What is Eldest Miss doing in the yard? Don't tell me they bumped into Eldest Miss?" There was a touch of concern on her delicate face. When she turned to the guards, there was a touch of coldness in her eyes. "I told you to search the house of the eldest miss. Why are you standing in the way of her eyes? Hurry up and finish what you have to do!"
When the guards saw that she had arrived, they immediately let out a breath of relief, turned around, and prepared to charge in.
"Wait!"
An Lingge shouted and stopped them, but her gaze was fixated on Madam Li, "Auntie told them to search my courtyard, is there any suitable reason?"
"Aunt naturally has a reason for doing so." Madam Li's face was full of smiles, but her eyes were extremely cold. "The guards came to report today, saying that they saw a thief running into the mansion, but they did not know what they took, so they chased that thief all the way here."
"Since it was your courtyard, they didn't dare to barge into it recklessly, so they reported this matter to me. "Since I haven't found the perpetrator of the previous robbery, I thought that maybe the thieves from last time were in the same group as this one. Considering the safety of Eldest Miss, I had someone break into her yard to search for her."
Every word that the Madam Li said was for the sake of her Prince An's Palace, so when it came to An Lingge, he couldn't see the slightest bit of selfishness.
An Lingge stared at her for a moment, then suddenly smiled: "Since Aunt said so, then I can't stop them, Bi Zhu, let them go in and search."
Bi Zhu replied, and gave way to the guards.
Madam Li smirked, a sinister smile in her eyes.
When they searched for that thing, An Lingge would definitely suffer. Maybe he could just cancel her marriage with Hereditary Prince.
She waited for a while before the guards came out. "To reply to my concubine, there's nothing out of the ordinary in Eldest Miss's courtyard."
"Impossible!" Madam Li retorted, realizing that her reaction was too intense, she relaxed her expression, "Didn't you guys report that the thieves have entered the young miss' courtyard? How could there be nothing abnormal? Quickly go in and search again, you absolutely cannot let that thief hide in the dark and hurt the young miss. "
An Lingge looked at Madam Li who was pretending to command her guards and even sent her nanny who was beside him, "Carefully search around, don't let any trace of him off. If that thief gets away, I'll make sure to question all of you."
