Chapter 108 I will take good care of his daughter

The next day.

Something happened at the post station.

A bailiff was killed at the post station.

The murderer was a woman.

Her husband is Mr. Zhang, the Prince's tutor.

In the case of deposing the crown prince, Lord Zhang made a death-defying appeal in the court, but was stopped and did not die. Instead, he was severely punished by the emperor and died in prison.

Only the mother and daughter were left.

The escort then set his sights on the mother and son.

Fang's mother also went to see it, and came back to tell Lin Zhiyi about it.

Along the way, the escorts raped many women, and Lin Zhiyi had seen it too.

Some people really have nothing to eat, so they use their bodies to exchange for food.

Some of them were so beautiful that they were targeted by the escorts.

However, the escorts generally did not dare to touch those people who were implicated by the deposed prince.

First, Li Wenjing is there, and second, they cannot guarantee that these people will return to Chang'an one day.

But for a family like this, where the orphans and their widowed mother have lost their husband, they are not afraid.

The bailiffs therefore kept an eye on them.

It was fine before when there were other fugitives, but now they have gone to other counties, and the escorts are about to finish their mission and go back to Chang'an. After today, there will be no such opportunity again.

So, he took the mother and daughter to their house in the middle of the night and raped them.

If it was just Mrs. Zhang, it would be fine, but when those beasts wanted to insult Mrs. Zhang's daughter, Zhang Wanqing, the lady pulled out her hairpin and stabbed it deeply into the neck of the escort.

"You said that lady is the wife of Master Zhang?"

Mother Fang replied, "Yes, Master Zhang was such a good old man. Alas, I never thought that after he passed away, his wife and daughter would end up like this."

"Mother Fang, please stop talking."

Lin Zhiyi could clearly feel that Li Wenjing's face was terribly gloomy.

Li Wenjing suddenly stood up and walked out of the room.

Lin Zhiyi was very worried and followed him.

Seeing this, the two elder brothers of the Lin family also chased after him.

When Lin Zhiyi arrived, he saw Li Wenjing pinching the neck of a bailiff and questioning who had violated the mother and daughter.

Lin Zhiyi hurried over and grabbed his arm, "Your Highness, calm down first."

“Get out of the way!”

Li Wenjing's scarlet eyes showed his anger at the moment.

After all, Lord Zhang had taught him a lesson, and his wife and children were indeed bullied under his nose.

Lin Zhiyi sighed and let go.

"Oh no! Mrs. Zhang has committed suicide."

Upon hearing this, Li Wenjing broke the escort's neck without hesitation.

Lin Zhiyi was so scared that she quickly crawled into the arms of her elder brother Lin Xiuran.

Lin Zhiyi had only seen murders in TV dramas, but this was the first time she had seen someone's neck being broken on the spot.

Lin Xiuran hurriedly protected Lin Zhiyi, "Sister, let's go back first."

Lin Zhiyi couldn't bear to think about the tragic condition of the deceased. She was afraid of having nightmares at night, so she followed her elder brother Lin Xiuran out of the house.

Li Wenjing came to the room where the mother and daughter were held in solitary confinement, and saw a hairpin stuck in Mrs. Zhang's chest. She was obviously breathing out more than breathing in. Zhang Wanqing was hugging Mrs. Zhang and crying bitterly.

Mrs. Zhang Taifu seemed to be waiting for Li Wenjing. Seeing him coming, she suddenly became a little more energetic: "Your Highness."

She asked her daughter to help her up, and then kowtowed to Li Wenjing, "Your Highness, my husband has devoted himself to you. Now I am leaving too. The one I am most worried about is Wanqing. Please, Your Highness, take her in."

She had no one to confide in.

I only hope that the prince will take care of my daughter in the future because my husband has taught him.

"Madam, please get up first. If you have anything to say, please let us talk."

Mrs. Zhang Taifu refused, "Your Highness, if one day you can really return to the imperial city, let Wanqing be your concubine, as long as you can give her something to eat.

If you can't go back to Fangzhou, you just need to keep her by your side, as a concubine or a maid, and don't drive her away."

Zhang Wanqing was also crying with red eyes, "Mom, please stop talking."

Seeing that Li Wenjing frowned and refused to agree, Mrs. Zhang kowtowed to Li Wenjing repeatedly, "Your Highness, please agree."

"Madam, please get up quickly. Don't worry, the Grand Tutor has a great favor with me. I will take good care of his daughter and find a good marriage for her in the future."

Mrs. Zhang Taifu refused.

The daughter has lost her parents and is an orphan. Who can treat her sincerely? Only Li Wenjing is the one they have watched grow up. He is a trustworthy person and will definitely treat their daughter well.

"Puff~"

Mrs. Zhang Taifu spat out a mouthful of blood.

Lin Zhiyi recovered after a while. When she came to look for Li Wenjing, she heard Li Wenjing supporting the lady. "I promise, I promise to keep Miss Zhang by my side."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Lin Zhiyi paused.

The lady in the house just stood up and died in Miss Zhang's arms, crying anxiously: "Mother, mother..."

Zhang Wanqing couldn't stop crying.

Li Wenjing took out a handkerchief and handed it over, "Miss Zhang, please accept my condolences."

Lin Zhiyi turned around and left.

Forget it. With Li Wenjing's status, he is destined to have many women in the future. What does she count for?

She shouldn't have thought about him.

The love for Li Wenjing came quickly and went away quickly. Although Lin Zhiyi felt a little sad, fortunately it was short-lived and it might only take a few days to recover.

She didn't blame him, he also had his helplessness.

Because of this incident, my report to the yamen was delayed.

Lin Fu was also very sorry when he heard that something had happened to Zhang Taifu's wife and daughter.

If he had known this, he should have taken care of the mother and daughter along the way.

But he couldn't protect himself. If his daughter hadn't chased him, he would have been...

Lin Fu didn't dare to think about how miserable his wife and children would be if he was the one who died.

There were three escorts who raped Zhang Wanqing and her daughter. Mrs. Zhang Taifu killed one, Li Wenjing killed one, and the third one had his neck broken by Li Wenjing on the spot.

If Li Wenjing's murder was reported to the emperor, he would be furious and Li Wenjing would definitely be punished. He would most likely be imprisoned in Fangzhou. If someone with ulterior motives made a fuss about it, he might even be sentenced to death.

Fortunately, he is still free now and can move around Fangling County at will. If he were imprisoned, he would probably not be able to leave the house.

Forget it, let her do one last thing for Li Wenjing.

Lin Zhiyi went to find Eunuch Wang and handed back the three bags of gold beans that Eunuch Wang had previously returned to her.

"Tell me, what's the matter this time?"

"Could you please not tell the emperor about the deposed crown prince's murder?"

Upon hearing this, Eunuch Wang hurriedly pushed her hand away and said, "Miss Lin, we dare not accept these three bags of silver."

Lin Zhiyi sat down and said, "Eunuch Wang, please state your conditions."

"Miss Lin, please don't make things difficult for me. I've followed you all the way here just to be the emperor's eyes. You're asking me to deceive the emperor. Aren't you trying to kill me?"

"I'll be in charge of Eunuch Wang's meals for the rest of his life!"

Eunuch Wang was somewhat tempted, but compared to the head on his neck, the food was nothing.

"Miss Lin, this is absolutely not allowed..."

This was also because the dishes cooked by Lin Zhiyi were delicious and he was attracted to them. Otherwise, he would have kicked Lin Zhiyi out long ago.

"Plus providing for Eunuch Wang's retirement and seeing him to the end of his life."
