Hua Jin sneered disdainfully, "Who do you think you are? You dare to order me? I only give you some respect because you are my third cousin's unmarried wife. Do you really think you are a thing?"
Chen Anning raised her hand and slapped him, "Pick it up!"
Hua Jin covered his face, "If you dare to hit me, I..."
Chen Anning took the hand she hit and threw her aside.
Hua Rong and the two maids quickly surrounded her and protected her behind her.
Chen Anning didn't see any movement and was already standing in front of them. After waving them all away, he grabbed Hua Jin's neck and lifted her up, "Since I am your third cousin's unmarried wife, how much respect do you give me? Ha. Do you know, if you want to? If it weren’t for your third cousin’s sake, you and Hua Rong would have died countless times!”
Fingers tightened.
Seeing her face turning from red to purple, and then from purple to white, the fear in her eyes gradually dissipated, Chen Anning suddenly let go.
Hua Jin fell to the ground, breathing heavily.
Chen Anning slowly squatted in front of her, and in her horrified eyes, he raised her chin and raised the corners of her mouth slightly, "Do you think your third cousin wants to marry me because of the emperor's marriage grant? Really? No. He only agreed to marry me because I fell in love with him. He had no choice but to marry me. "
"Although your third cousin is the third son of the Guangling Palace, he only has one life. Therefore, if he wants to live, he can only marry me. Do you understand?"
"It doesn't matter if you don't understand. You just need to remember that if you want to marry your third cousin as your concubine, what you have to do is not to please your third cousin or trample on me, but to please me."
"Because your third cousin's life is in my hands. Tell me, would he dare to take you as his concubine without my permission?"
"No matter how good the relationship between childhood sweethearts is, it's not as important as one's own life, right?"
"Obey, take advantage of the fact that I'm in a good mood today and don't want to get blood on my hands. Go pick up the mirror."
Seeing that she was so beautiful and beautiful, but her smile was as terrifying as a bloodthirsty demon, Hua Jin felt his hands and feet were cold, "You..."
Chen Anning tilted her head, "Why, do you have to force me to do it?"
Hua Rong was also horrified by Chen Anning's martial arts skills.
After hearing her threatening words, he quickly got up, regardless of the pain all over his body from being thrown, picked up the mirror and handed it to her.
Chen Anning didn't even look at her, "Put it back and let her pick it up!"
After Hua Rong glanced at Hua Jin in fear, she obediently put the mirror back.
After touching his neck, Hua Jin endured the humiliation and stood up to pick up the mirror.
Chen Anning took the mirror, wiped it slowly with a brocade handkerchief, and handed it to the maid behind her, "You said it would be nice to be obedient like this, right? Why do you have to force me to do it?"
Hua Jin said nothing.
After Chen Anning looked at her twice, she walked away.
After walking a few steps, she stopped again and said, "Go back to Jincheng County and don't follow me anymore. Otherwise, I can't guarantee whether you will be able to see the sun tomorrow."
Watching her disappear without a trace.
Hua Rong then breathed a sigh of relief quietly, "Sister..."
Hua Jin slowly raised his eyes.
The hatred in his eyes spread like waves.
Hua Rong quietly tugged on her sleeve, "Sister..."
Hua Jin suppressed his hatred and said, "Let's go home."
Finished cleaning up Huajin and Huarong.
Chen Anning went to the cell.
When she was first put into the cell, she was cursing and crying, but now she was calm. When Lu Wenjun and others saw her, they immediately got up and walked to the cell door.
Although he knew that she was approaching them to find evidence of their father's corruption and perversion of the law, Lu Yueyun still asked innocently: "Miss Chen Er, are you here to save us?"
Chen Anning glanced at them one by one, and then at Mrs. Lu and the other concubines in the cell opposite, before replying: "No, I'm here to say goodbye to you."
"Are you leaving?" Lu Yueyun asked.
Chen Anning nodded, "Yes."
"Miss Chen Er," Mrs. Lu said, "They don't know anything. Considering that they have served you with all their heart, let them go."
"Mrs. Lu is really good at joking," Chen Anning said. "They try their best to 'serve' me. For what reason, Mrs. Lu should know better than me."
Mrs. Lu was silent for a moment and said slowly: "You are indeed pretending. That's right. If you are not extraordinary, how could the emperor marry you to the proud son of heaven, Mr. Xie San? We were all deceived by your appearance. ”
Chen Anning said disapprovingly: "Rather than being deceived by me, it's better to say that you have done too many things that harm the laws of heaven, and even God can't stand it."
Mrs. Lu had a somewhat sarcastic expression on her face, but said nothing more.
But Lu Yueyun refused to give up and said: "Miss Chen Er, we are sincerely friends with you. You can't ignore death."
Chen Anning looked at her face, which had become thinner in just a few days, and said softly: "I have never been the one who can save you."
Lu Yueyun blurted out and asked: "Who is that?"
"Of course it's yourselves." Chen Anning said calmly, "Dali Temple will not let a bad person go, nor will it wrongly accuse a good person. When your father's case is settled and it is confirmed that neither of you knew about it or participated in it, you will naturally be able to live in peace. nothing."
"But……"
"But if you participate," Chen Anning took over her words, "then you will be happy for yourself."
"Miss Chen Er, don't leave yet!" Lu Yueyun begged, "I can take out all the money my father gave me and return it to those people. Please save us."
Chen Anning looked at her steadily for a while, and while she was panicking, she slowly said, "The money can be returned, but what about the lives? How can you return the lives of those people your father killed?"
"It's because they are stupid. How can they blame my father?" Lu Yueyun blurted out, "It was because they were greedy and wanted pie in the sky, so they were deceived and killed. What does it have to do with my father?"
Chen Anning said nothing.
Just looked at her quietly.
"I, I'm not wrong!" Lu Yueyun felt uncomfortable when she saw him and quietly hid behind Lu Wenjun.
"Yes, you are right." Chen Anning nodded, "So you should be locked up here now."
After saying that, no matter how she called, Chen Anning didn't look back.
"What's wrong?" Xie Xun asked as he looked at Chen Anning, who was wearing a frosty mask, and was about to mount his horse.
"It's okay." Chen Anning glanced at the carriages behind her, "Have arrangements been made for Miss Ling'er and the children?"
"It's arranged." Looking at her cold expression, Xie Xun joked, "Did those ladies in the Prefect's Mansion scold you? That shouldn't be the case. I heard that Miss Hua almost died at your hands. It makes no sense, Prefect." The ladies in the mansion can still bully you."
Chen Anning rolled her eyes at him and got into the carriage. After the carriage started driving slowly, he said slowly: "I was just thinking, why did Song Shizhong and Lu Deqiu do this?"
"Song Shizhong is the young minister of Taipu Temple. He is in the fourth rank and has the trust of the emperor. He is considered a very popular minister. Logically speaking, no amount of benefits should seduce him."
"The same goes for Lu Deqiu. Jincheng County is close to the capital, and it is also a Shangjun. If you continue to work honestly, it will be a matter of time before you are transferred back to the capital."
"How could two people with such bright futures..."
