Upon hearing the sound, the Marquis of Zhenbei felt his legs go weak.
He turned around timidly, smiling ingratiatingly, "My lord, please wait a moment, I am speaking with your wife."
Seeing the furious Lord Wan of the Court of State Ceremonies, the Marquis of Zhenbei turned to face Ye Lanyin, and his expression changed.
"Lin Wanwan, come out! This time, even I can't save you."
"Consider this life a gift from me to Lord Honglu Temple. He can do with it as he pleases."
Ye Lanyin never expected that the Marquis of Zhenbei would actually dare to do it.
Her face was terribly gloomy.
Even Lord Wan and Prime Minister Jiang, who were standing behind the Marquis of Zhenbei, were stunned.
Is this her biological daughter?
Do they treat human life like dirt?
Last time everyone said he favored boys over girls, but this time the two of them caught him red-handed.
Ye Lanyin looked at Lord Wan and Prime Minister Jiang behind the Marquis of Zhenbei and took out a gold medal from her waist.
"Last time, His Majesty gave me a pardon from death. Seeing the pardon is like seeing His Majesty."
"Wanwan is my daughter, and no one is allowed to harm her."
"It's the father's fault if the child isn't taught properly; the adults should go find the child's father!"
Lord Wan and Prime Minister Jiang knew about this matter, and now that they had the gold medal, they naturally dared not do anything.
Then he turned to look at the Marquis of Zhenbei.
"Lord Zhenbei, I need an explanation for what happened today."
“It is the father’s fault if his son is not taught properly. This includes the incident where your son touched my daughter last time.”
"There are two cases in total."
As he spoke, he threw a punch at the Marquis of Zhenbei.
The fist struck Zhenbei Hou squarely in the eye.
Driven by his pent-up grief and indignation, he exerted all his strength.
The Marquis of Zhenbei cried out in pain. He was a scholar, and the torment he had endured these past few days had weakened his body considerably.
He was also quite frightened by the regent's words about "stealing a subject's wife," and he didn't even eat lunch.
Having been struck by Lord Wan, he was completely powerless to resist and fell directly to the ground.
"Bang!"
Unfortunately, his face landed right in the flower bed.
With a loud crash, the flowerpot broke in two again.
The Marquis of Zhenbei's face was covered in mud, he was in a sorry state, and only one dark eye socket was visible.
Hua Xin held Lin Wanwan in her arms and secretly watched from behind the door.
She covered her mouth and laughed nonstop.
Hahaha, serves him right!
Women and petty men are the hardest to deal with; a scumbag father is the real jinx!
Ye Lanyin's head buzzed.
Good grief, they were just watching the show from the sidelines.
The Minister of State Ceremonies was still not satisfied and punched the Marquis of Zhenbei several more times.
Marquis Zhenbei was in so much pain that he couldn't open his eyes and couldn't tell which way was which.
Upon seeing this, Prime Minister Jiang quietly went up and kicked him several more times!
"Ah." The Marquis of Zhenbei groaned in pain.
snort!
The saying "If a son is not taught, it is the father's fault" is absolutely true.
The feeling of revenge is incredibly satisfying!
After venting their anger, the two left the Marquis's residence feeling relieved.
The maids at the entrance of Furong Courtyard were all Ye Lanyin's people.
The maids, receiving a signal from Ye Lanyin, immediately ran forward and asked with feigned concern, "My lord, how are you?"
"Lord Marquis?"
They called out several times, but the Marquis of Zhenbei did not respond.
They dragged the Marquis of Zhenbei directly to the entrance of the outhouse used by the servants in the Marquis's residence.
The stench was overwhelming and extremely unpleasant.
Adding to the sweltering heat of August, the smell became even more unbearable. Marquis Zhenbei vomited even while he was asleep after lying down for only a short while.
Ye Lanyin turned around and went back to look at her daughter.
She reached out and pinched her round little face.
"What happened? I was only gone for a short while, and such a big incident occurred?"
"And you even burned other people's things?"
Hehe, my hand slipped.
Lin Wanwan stared blankly at the fruit on the table.
If I could hook her, she would have eaten me long ago.
Seeing her gluttonous face, Ye Lanyin smiled and picked it up from the table.
"Eat."
The little girl took it, and the fruit was held perfectly in her hand, her little palm almost unable to contain it.
Not long after, thunder rumbled outside.
A thunderous roar, like lightning, made Ye Lanyin mutter, "It's raining?"
"Paint plum blossoms, paint your heart, and close the doors and windows tightly."
"yes."
The rain gradually intensified, and in an instant, a torrential downpour began. Raindrops, as thick as soybeans, fell from the sky, and the pattering sound could be heard even through the paper window.
The little guy inside was excitedly playing with Tianfeng.
Meanwhile, in the servants' outhouse, the master on the ground slowly awoke amidst the torrential rain and thunder.
He suddenly opened his eyes, looked at the sky filled with lightning and thunder, and screamed in fright.
"ah--"
A roar pierced the sky.
The last day of the imperial examination.
Officials who did not participate in the imperial examination supervision all went to court together to discuss matters after the results were announced.
Standing in the Golden Palace with dark circles under his eyes, the Marquis of Zhenbei's desire to change his title grew even stronger.
Two days ago, he was struck by lightning in a vital spot, and for several days he was unable to lift his arm.
He caught a cold from being caught in the rain, so he took the opportunity to rest for several days and finally became able to move around a little.
"Your Majesty, I must inform the Marquis of Zhenbei!"
Marquis Zhenbei's heart skipped a beat. What could it be now?
Everything is going wrong, nothing is going right!
"Lord of the Court of State Ceremonial, please speak."
"Your Majesty, a few days ago I received a letter from the Kingdom of Yun'ao. In the letter, the Kingdom of Yun'ao expressed its willingness to establish friendly relations between the two countries. To show their sincerity, they are willing to summon the Purple Spirit God on behalf of the Holy Kingdom."
"Your humble servant took the letter to Prime Minister Jiang's home to discuss its contents with him in advance."
"Who would have thought that the daughter of the Marquis of Zhenbei would actually burn it!"
The more the official from the Court of State Ceremonial spoke, the angrier he became, and he burst into tears on the spot.
"Your Majesty, if this is true, it will benefit our Holy Kingdom. However, the Marquis of Zhenbei has a spoiled daughter who has burned the letter."
"If the Yun'ao Kingdom knew we burned it, wouldn't they think we did it on purpose?"
"In my humble opinion, the Marquis of Zhenbei is the culprit behind this matter!"
When the officials heard that Yun Ao Kingdom was willing to summon the Purple Spirit God on behalf of the Holy Kingdom, they were all extremely excited.
Halfway through the conversation, the letter was burned.
The hundred or so voices in the court bombarded the Marquis of Zhenbei like cannons.
"That Marquis of Zhenbei, he's getting bolder and bolder these days, actually letting his daughter burn the imperial seal?"
"This Lin Wanwan is not even a year old, yet she can do this much. She must have been taught by someone."
"Madam Lin is just a woman, so naturally she doesn't understand court affairs. That leaves only Marquis Zhenbei."
"Your Majesty, the Marquis of Zhenbei is incredibly audacious. Yun'ao Kingdom has the most spiritual roots among the five kingdoms, and other kingdoms would love to have them but cannot. Yet the Marquis of Zhenbei actually allowed his daughter to burn the letter!"
"Your Majesty, I humbly request that the Marquis of Zhenbei be punished!"
"I second that proposal."
"I second that opinion."
Seeing the familiar scene, the Marquis of Zhenbei was extremely anxious.
Oh, he remembered, last time it was Lin Wanwan who cheated him out of money.
He was really about to cry.
He cried along with everything that had happened in the past few days.
Lin Wanwan is a menace.
He should have been eliminated long ago.
The child, who is not even a year old, does all sorts of heinous things.
How much more did she do behind the scenes?!
He knelt down with a thud.
