He could no longer suppress the urge to explain.

Once you open your mouth like that...

"Aba, ah—"

The effects of the medicine haven't worn off yet.

Destroy it...

I'm tired.

Hurry up!

Her dull, lifeless eyes were filled with sorrow, making her look extremely pitiful. Yu Ling stopped moving, resigned herself to her fate, and thought, "Whatever."

Lord Sun assumed that Yu Ling had tacitly acknowledged her identity.

Seeing that she showed no sign of forgiving Steward Li and even looked heartbroken, I immediately assumed that Yu Ling had been wronged by Steward Li.

He, the innocent Lord Sun, really didn't secretly instruct Steward Li to do anything ruthless; it was all the disobedient servants who acted on their own.

What should we do in this situation? Support the poor Imperial Censor's son!

Lord Sun summoned his guards.

"Guards, drag Steward Li out and give him fifty lashes!"

Yu Ling was deep in thought: Who exactly is Yan Fei?

Seeing that the man remained silent, indicating he was dissatisfied with the lightness of the measure, Lord Sun continued:

"Give Steward Li and everyone who laid a hand on the young master a full eighty strokes of the cane!"

Yu Ling didn't move: ...How did he become Yan Fei?

"One hundred lashes for a major offense!"

Still not moving... Yan Fei sounds quite similar to Fei Yan, huh?

"Two hundred... Forget it, dismemberment, slicing, and then drag him out to feed the dogs!"

[Host, that's the name on the identity token you picked up.]

Seeing that the host had been offline for a long time, the system realized that Yu Ling hadn't paid close attention to the name on the sign, and it reminded her.

Yu Ling clapped her hands. Oh, I see!

Upon seeing this, Lord Sun was satisfied. He quickly waved his hand and declared, "That's how it's done!"

Upon seeing this, Butler Li fainted from fright and was ruthlessly dragged away.

Only then did Yu Ling notice why Butler Li was lying down.

What's going on?

What is everyone doing?

In the courtyard, a bloody scene began to unfold.

But the protagonists who get stabbed have changed from Yu Ling to the evil butler and the unlucky big man.
