Chapter 47 Disgust
Yes, from the beginning to the end, Xiao Yihan never said that these two men were flower thieves.
"I, I, I..." Chu Ruyan's face turned pale, she stammered and couldn't say a word, even her hands began to tremble.
She plopped down on her knees before Xiao Yihan, "Your Highness, I am innocent! I only saw the bloodshot eyes and vicious faces of these two thieves, and only then did I guess that they were toying with women..."
"This minister is just guessing, it can't be counted!"
"This is interesting..."
Xiao Yihan didn't even glance at Chu Ruyan, but only looked at Pei Yanzhou with his narrow eyes, "Cousin, your fiancée is not only eloquent, but also can tell fortunes."
"In my opinion, if Chu Ruyan is willing to set up a fortune-telling stall in the future, those half-immortals in the capital might have no business."
"Pfft——" Some of the young eunuchs present couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Their prince's words are indeed too poisonous.
Pei Yanzhou's face turned pale. He glared at Chu Ruyan fiercely, and then involuntarily stood a distance away from her.
I really feel a little disgusted in my heart.
Chu Ruyan's face turned red and white at this time. She raised her head and looked at Xiao Yihan with an almost hostile look, then quickly lowered her head.
It was not until now that she realized that Xiao Yihan was deliberately setting up a trap to harm her.
How could this be a flower viewing banquet? It was clearly a Hongmen Banquet.
Xiao Yihan was helping Shen Yuning to get revenge. He saw that she had snatched Pei Yanzhou away, which made Shen Yuning unhappy, so he was so angry for her.
I think the reason why he was so kind to her and rewarded her with so many treasures in Zhaixing Tower a few days ago was probably all for today.
Chu Ruyan pinched her fingers into her palm, causing blood to ooze out.
Yes, yes, no wonder they were whispering to each other at the table just now, it was so lively, maybe these two people had been together for a long time.
Bah, so cheap.
Chu Ruyan looked at Pei Yanzhou with contempt, and felt that there was a green light on this man's head.
It's a shame that he is still obsessed with Shen Yuning and doesn't even know that he is being cuckolded. How cowardly!
At this time, Xiao Yihan's voice from hell rang out again: "Since Miss Chu refuses to admit it, I can only let the murderer speak for himself."
Then, with a few crisp "crackling" sounds, the ten fingers of the two flower thieves were broken in an instant. "Tell me, who is behind you? Otherwise, we can forget about our legs."
They cried and wailed, tears streaming down their cheeks: "Prince, please spare us! Your Highness, please spare us! We'll tell you everything! We even have the token!"
"Yes, it's Chu..."
"Ah!" Chu Ruyan saw that the scene before her was not right. Her pupils shrank sharply. She stood up suddenly, drew Pei Yanzhou's sword, and slashed at the necks of the two flower-stealing thieves. "Go to hell!"
Clean and neat, killing with one blow.
Although her martial arts skills were not very high, the criminals had their hands and feet tied and were kneeling on the ground, so it was easy to kill them.
Blood splashed all over her face, but she was not afraid. Instead, a devilish look of relief appeared on her face.
Seeing that the flower-stealing thief was dead, she breathed a sigh of relief, "Your Highness, these two thieves were ready to frame me. In order to protect myself, I had no choice but to strike first."
"Doctor Shen has dedicated herself to the country and the people, and her heart is with the Xuanjia Camp. I admire her enough to not be able to stop, so how could I possibly find someone to harm her?"
"Since they dared to disrespect Doctor Shen, and I didn't want to pollute everyone's ears with my foul language, I'll kill them first. I hope Your Highness will forgive me."
She wiped the blood off her face and became obedient again.
Xiao Yihan didn't seem surprised. He just looked at Pei Yanzhou with inquiring eyes again: "Your people, tell me yourself!"
Pei Yanzhou's face was terribly gloomy. As a general leading troops to fight, he knew without even thinking that Chu Ruyan was the mastermind behind the scenes.
He just hated Chu Ruyan for doing such a dirty thing and harming his Ning'er.
He only felt a buzzing in his head, and for a moment, he didn't dare to look at Chu Ruyan.
He didn't dare to delve deeper, fearing that if he did, he would lose the courage to be with her.
How could Yan'er be such a person?
Is this still the chivalrous and brave woman who carried him out of Tiger Roar Mountain?
"Cousin, Chu Ruyan is affecting your ability to judge the case. She is definitely guilty."
"But Yan'er just did it unconsciously because she was too scared."
"Yan'er is timid and kind-hearted by nature. She would definitely not do anything that would harm others... Therefore, I believe this matter has nothing to do with her!"
He bowed deeply to Xiao Yihan. Now, in order to save Chu Ruyan's life, he could only lie with his eyes open.
Shen Yuning shot a knife in her eyes. Even though she had liked him before, he was so confused about right and wrong that she instantly felt that this man was nothing special.
Xiao Yihan smiled, taking everything in. "You killed all the witnesses, so of course whatever you say is what counts."
He kicked the two dead men with his official boots: "But a woman who can kill two men at the same time with one knife is indeed a coward!"
He rubbed his brows and said, "Since General Pei has guaranteed Chu Ruyan and is intentionally biased, I can't say anything more."
Pei Yanzhou and Chu Ruyan breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
"It's just that even if the death penalty is acceptable, the punishment of life imprisonment is unavoidable." Xiao Yihan looked down at them, "I don't hit women, but I can't stand others bullying my people."
He pulled Shen Yuning towards him with one hand, his face cold. "Listen, Shen Yuning is my little disciple from when I was training in Meishan. She belongs to me."
"If anyone dares to have evil thoughts towards her again, I don't care who protects that person, don't blame me for not thinking of our brotherhood!"
Shen Yuning stared blankly at the serious Xiao Yihan.
She really wanted to refute: According to seniority, she was not his disciple, at most she could only be considered the prince's junior sister.
It's just that now that he has become the head of the Meishan Sect, he has to call him "Master".
But when the words came to my lips, I swallowed them back, and instead I felt a very complicated feeling.
It's impossible to say I'm not moved.
Ever since my father passed away, I have been shouldering the responsibilities alone and taking care of my mother. I have been fighting alone.
Few people cared about her or stood up for her, but the appearance of Xiao Yihan made her feel that she was also a woman and that there were people willing to protect her.
There were stars in Shen Yuning's beautiful peach blossom eyes, and she missed her master even more - her master must have said so many good things in front of Xiao Yihan and given him so many benefits that Xiao Yihan would protect her like this.
When Chu Ruyan heard that she was going to be punished, she hurried to Pei Yanzhou and grabbed his sleeve tightly.
"Brother Yanzhou, you are a true gentleman who knows how to repay kindness. Yan'er is just a woman and cannot bear such severe punishment!"
When she saw the injuries on the two flower-stealing thieves, she knew how cruel Xiao Yihan's methods were. "Brother Yanzhou, I'm scared. You must help me!"
Pei Yanzhou peeled her fingers off her arm, feeling disgusted.
