Leng Lanzhi sat back on his seat and fiddled with the phoenix-patterned jade pendant around his waist: "What do you have to do with the maid? I punish them because they committed the following crime and because Shen Yizhi spoiled his concubine and destroyed his wife."
Mrs. Zhao was shocked: "Princess, you can't say this! Why do you spoil your concubine and destroy your wife? Yizhi is not that kind of person! And aren't you punishing her for the following crimes?"
Since ancient times, doting on concubines and killing wives has been a huge scandal, especially for powerful families like them. If there is news that someone has doted on concubines and killed their wives, that family will definitely be stabbed in the back.
Those who are officials may even be dismissed directly because of this.
If we want to talk about why the Zhao family is so sensitive to the phrase "loving concubines and destroying wives", it must be thanks to Ping Nanhou.
Marquis Pingnan was uneducated, ignorant, and extremely lustful. Since entering the capital, he has been running to the Flower House almost every day.
A few years ago, Mrs. Zhao fought with him every day because of this, and the two of them caused chaos in the Hou Mansion.
The most ridiculous time was when Ping Nanhou even wanted to divorce the vulgar and rude Zhao family and marry a girl from Hualou as his wife.
As soon as this incident came out, Leng Lanzhi, who had not yet married Shen Yizhi at the time, told her about the allusion of "loving a concubine and destroying the wife", as well as the bad nature of this kind of thing in the current dynasty and the possible punishment.
Not to mention anything else, once things get heated, the spittle of scholars all over the world will be able to scold this person to death.
And with the sharp criticism of the world's literati scholars, the emperor will also punish him.
After Zhao had another big quarrel with Ping Nanhou, she took these things out to warn Ping Nanhou.
When Marquis Pingnan heard this, he was really frightened.
He was not afraid of poking the backs of scholars all over the world, but he was mainly afraid that the emperor would deprive him of his title.
As the saying goes, it is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality. He has been used to the good life of being the Marquis of Pingnan, and he cannot accept it if he is asked to go back to farming again.
So he became honest and never thought of changing his wife again.
And after having the experience of almost being divorced by Marquis Pingnan, Mrs. Zhao no longer cared about him going to the flower house to play with women. As long as he didn't bring women home, she didn't care.
Suddenly, a servant in charge of the execution reported: "Princess, she fainted."
Leng Lanzhi looked over and saw Yu Waner's body lying limply on the ground.
Leng Lanzhi frowned slightly, and was just about to speak, when Shen Linan shouted with red eyes: "Bad woman!"
Everyone's attention was on Yu Waner, so that no one was on guard against this five-year-old child.
His fat body bounced towards Leng Lanzhi like a cannonball. When Leng Lanzhi realized that something was wrong, the little fat man had already bumped into her.
His back hit hard against the edge of the pear wood table behind him, and Leng Lanzhi felt pain at the place where he was hit.
The blood on her pretty face faded instantly, and pain surged up.
She pushed back subconsciously, and Shen Lin'an staggered back several steps, but did not fall.
He glared at Leng Lanzhi fiercely, as if he was glaring at the enemy who killed his father.
oh.
In the current situation, it is actually quite appropriate to say that Leng Lanzhi is his father-killing enemy.
Looking at those hateful eyes, Leng Lanzhi seemed to have returned to his previous life.
In the dark and cramped dilapidated room, the young man wearing the red robe of the new champion looked down at her. His eyes that used to pretend to be respectful and filial were now full of hatred and disgust.
She worked hard to raise him up and train him to be a talented person, but instead of being grateful, he even made things worse when she was in trouble and ordered her to eat rotten food! If she doesn't eat, she will just starve!
With hatred rushing straight to his forehead, Leng Lanzhi raised his palm and landed it hard!
Snapped!
A loud voice sounded, but it was not Shen Lin'an's face who was slapped, but Shen Yizhi, who took advantage of the time when the people in Xingxing had suspended the execution because Yu Wan'er fainted, rushed over, and slapped Leng Lanzhi with his uninjured left hand. wrist grab.
His gentle eyes, which he was always accustomed to pretending, were now bloodshot. He stared at her: "Leng Lanzhi, do you still have humanity? He is still just a child!"
His strength was so great that Leng Lanzhi's wrist was almost crushed.
"Shen Yizhi, you are blind and blind!"
Leng Lanzhi allowed the hatred in his heart to rush through his body and let it explode: "It was Yu Wan'er who plotted against me first! It was Shen Lin'an who attacked me first!"
"It was your mother who set her sights on my money bag and provoked me first!"
"It's you who can't control your lower body, are incompetent, and are greedy for power, which led to today's situation!"
"Am I inhumane?"
"If I really had no humanity, he would have turned into a corpse when I found out Shen Linan's identity! If I had no humanity, your dirty and dirty Pingnan Hou Mansion would have become an empty mansion, and your family would have already Let’s go to the underworld to reunite!”
"Shen Yizhi, I must have done all the bad things in my previous life before I met you in this life! You are greedy for power but dare not admit it. You are full of schemes to make me fall in love with you, but you turned around and ended up sleeping with other women. Everything was exposed Then they blamed everything on me and portrayed me as a bad guy who beats mandarin ducks!
Shen Yizhi, no matter before or now, you are so disgusting! I look down on you! "
In his previous life and this life, he was so disgusting!
The ends of her eyes were red, and she was crying every word. The grievances and hatred contained in her words made those who heard the sad words shed tears.
After being reborn for so long, she finally burst out all the hatred in her heart.
No dignity and dignity were maintained.
Shen Yizhi has never felt so distressed as now.
I feel sorry for this woman.
"I……"
He wanted to say something, but Liusha rushed over and tried to break his hand off: "Let go! You're pinching the princess!"
Only then did Shen Yizhi realize that he was still holding Leng Lanzhi's wrist.
He is so strong, he didn't know she...
He let go of his hand, and sure enough he saw a clear five-fingerprint on Leng Lanzhi's white, jade-like wrist.
The contrast between red and white is so obvious, and the red color is even more dazzling.
"I'm sorry, I..." He was at a loss.
Leng Lanzhi brushed his hand away expressionlessly and said coldly: "Don't be so hypocritical."
Shen Yizhi looked at the empty palm, as if her warmth still remained in it.
Looking at her cold face, his heart suddenly felt empty.
This feeling frightened him.
"Come here." Leng Lanzhi walked away from him and looked at Yu Waner on the ground coldly: "Take her back to the princess mansion."
The complicated emotions in Shen Yizhi's heart dissipated instantly. He looked at Leng Lanzhi warily: "What do you want to do? She is already injured!"
"This woman dares to act in front of me and frame me. I just want to see how courageous she is."
A servant had already carried Yu Wan'er up, and Leng Lan waved her sleeves: "Since my mother-in-law still has the strength to shout, she must have recovered from her illness, so I won't stay here as an eyesore."
When she walked to the door, she remembered something and told Liusha: "Have someone clear up the things on the table and take them back to the house to feed the dogs."
When her beautiful face was hidden in the dark curtain of rain, where was there any trace of hatred and entanglement?
Her eyes moved.
One more day.
Just endure tomorrow.
