A hint of murderous intent flashed across Ji Yunhuan's eyes, but she quickly suppressed it.
She knew that the emperor was watching in secret, so she could only swallow her anger and continue acting for the emperor.
Ji Yunhuan raised the axe high and smashed it on the wooden stake next to him.
The entrance to the woodshed is where firewood is chopped. Wooden stakes as thick as thighs must be chopped into thin pieces before they can be put into the stove to burn.
Ji Yunhuan had to chop a wall of firewood every day. Not to mention a delicate and frail woman like her, even a grown man who was used to doing rough work couldn't accomplish it.
The axe was chopped crookedly, Ji Yunhuan loosened his grip, and the axe flew out and almost hit Jingxu's head.
"You Yunni, did you do this on purpose? You bitch! I'll beat you to death!"
Ji Yunhuan felt a pang of regret in her heart. She had done it on purpose, but it was a pity that her aim was not very good.
Before Jingxu could slap her, she fell to the ground, her delicate body boneless.
"Don't be angry, nun. I'll get up and chop wood right away. I'll definitely finish all the wood. Please be kind and let me have lunch before chopping."
Ji Yunhuan pretended to get up from the ground, but halfway through his climb his arms went limp and he fell to the ground again.
After some tossing and turning, her hair, which had been tied up in a bun, fell down, like a piece of fine silk, wrapping around her graceful figure.
She knew that the emperor was hiding in the big tree, so she showed her aggrieved and tearful side to the emperor. Her black hair stuck to her cheek, making her fair little face look even more prominent.
A pair of almond-shaped eyes filled with fear and grievance can best arouse a man's desire to protect.
Jingxu was furious and stepped forward to grab Ji Yunhuan's hair. Before his hand dropped, Jingxu suddenly felt a chill on his back and all the hairs on his body stood up.
She felt like she was being stared at by something scary, but it must be her illusion.
The entire Shuiyue Temple belongs to her. She is the local tyrant and no one dares to touch her!
Yunni is now in her hand, allowing her to rub it as she pleases. As long as she can force Yunni to death, Aunt Zhang will definitely reward her handsomely.
Thinking of this, Jingxu became a little bolder. How could an abandoned young lady compare to the future mistress of the Ji family?
In the end, she didn't dare to hit Ji Yunhuan in the face, but kicked her in the chest.
"Don't play dead, get up and work! If you don't get up, I won't be polite!"
A woman's chest is the softest part, very delicate. It hurts a lot if it is bumped, so how can it withstand such kicking and beating?
Ji Yunhuan insisted on not hiding. How could she make the emperor feel sorry for her without paying some price?
“Woo…”
Ji Yunhuan let out a painful whine, the sound was not loud, but it seemed particularly aggrieved. Tears welled up in her eyes, and she pulled Jingxu's trouser legs and begged:
"Master, please spare me. I'm not being lazy. I just haven't eaten for several days and I really don't have the strength."
The emperor's blood was boiling, and Ji Yunhuan's soft sobs were heard in his ears.
He casually picked up a stone from the courtyard wall and shot it out with a whoosh!
“Ah! Who is it?!”
Jingxu had two front teeth broken, and the broken teeth and blood foam spurted out. He rolled on the ground in pain, with tears and snot all over his face.
Several old nuns were frightened and rushed over to help Jingxu up.
Taking advantage of this gap, a kind-looking nun slipped in along the wall and carefully helped Ji Yunhuan up.
"Are you okay?"
Ji Yunhuan looked like she was about to collapse at any moment. She bit her lower lip and shook her head silently.
The emperor looked down at all this.
He felt that he should leave, but his feet seemed to have taken root. He just watched, unwilling to even take his eyes away.
Nun Jing'an was the abbess of Shuiyue Temple. She protected Yunni behind her and said angrily:
"How did you get in in the first place? Have you forgotten everything? Don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you. Monks should be compassionate. Look at what you have done? This is a life!"
Several old nuns stammered and were unable to speak. It was thanks to Jing'an that they were able to gain a foothold in Shuiyue Temple.
Jingxu was not panicked at all. Now the entire Shuiyue Temple was under her control. She was not afraid of the old man Jing'an!
"Someone, come! Nun Jing'an is not feeling well. Hurry up and help her get down to rest!"
Two strong old women rushed out from the room on the left, one on each side held Master Jing'an, and dragged her away from Yunni.
Jing'an yelled angrily, "Let me go! Let me go! Are you crazy? Yunni is only staying at Shuiyue Temple temporarily, don't go too far! What if she goes out one day? Have you thought about the consequences? The Ji family can just move their fingers and our Shuiyue Temple will be finished!"
Jingxu snorted coldly and disagreed.
Master Ji had long since stopped caring about Ji Yunhuan, and the prince of the Marquisate had also broken off the engagement. Without the protection of the Ji family and her husband's family, Ji Yunhuan could never go back!
Jingxu's front teeth were still leaking, and every time he spoke, it would affect the nerves in his face, causing him to grimace in pain.
"All of you, check carefully for me. I want to see who else dares to go against me!"
Everyone searched the entire nunnery and was busy as a whirlwind, but they couldn't find the murderer at all.
In order to calm Jingxu's anger, an old nun pushed Ji Yunhuan hard and cursed:
"It must have been you! You hold a grudge against Master Jingxu and are deliberately seeking revenge, right?"
Ji Yunhuan cried and shook her head, "No, it's not me, I don't know..."
