Chapter 326: The Lady of the Marquisate vs. the Younger Prince 69
After Liang Wanzhou entered the mansion, he went straight to the back room.
Wan Niang was only wearing a single piece of clothing which was torn to pieces. She was forced to kneel on the ground with two slap marks on her face, but she was smiling wantonly.
Liang Wanzhou kicked Wan Niang to the ground, stepped on her softest chest, and shouted angrily: "I told you to laugh! I lost my title, are you happy? It's all your fault, you bitch, and you can still laugh? Believe it or not, I will cut your face!"
Wan Niang groaned, her heart aching so much that it felt like it was burning.
She failed to complete the Second Prince's task. The Second Prince did not want her life, but he only gave her half an antidote. She could not die, but her life was not very happy either.
On the night when the poison took effect, she was in excruciating pain. She was in pain for a whole day and night before she barely recovered. However, the poison from years of exposure had already permeated her body, and she knew she would not live long.
A waste like Liang Wanzhou could be made to feel miserable by just a kick.
Wan Niang's tears fell in pain, and each tear dropped onto the bluestone slab. However, there was a mocking smile on her lips as she stared at Liang Wanzhou without any fear.
"Your Majesty did everything himself. He flaunted his power, accepted bribes, and cheated in the imperial examinations. It's all your own fault. The Xuanwu Marquisate is gone, the Liang family is finished, it's all over, hahahaha..."
The veins on Liang Wanzhou's forehead were throbbing. He was so angry that he felt dizzy and fell straight to the ground.
There were only a few servants left in the Marquis's mansion, and their indentures were in Wu's hands, so they couldn't leave.
Wu cried out in shock and immediately rushed over to help her son up. "You bunch of rubbish, why don't you come and help the Marquis? If anything happens to the Marquis, I'll bury you with him!"
Liang Wanzhou was helped up, and his rage grew even greater. He picked up the horsewhip hanging in the stable and started beating Wan Niang all over the head.
"You bitch! It was all your fault. I loved you, redeemed you, and gave you wealth and glory. Is this how you repay me? I will beat you to death today!"
When Wu saw Wan Niang was about to run away, she immediately ordered her men to hold Wan Niang down so that her son could beat her to his heart's content.
"Beat, beat, beat! Beat this bitch to death! I've said it before, these women all have bad intentions, only mother is truly doing you a favor!"
Bloodstains appeared on her fair skin. Wan Niang felt severe pain, but she felt happy in her heart. She could finally take off all her disguises. Before she died, she could finally live happily.
"Ugh!" Wan Niang spat a mouthful of blood foam on Liang Wanzhou's face and laughed heartily: "Liang Wanzhou, I look down on you! Every time I make love with you, I feel extremely disgusted!"
"Madam is absolutely right. I am a traitor in my heart. I am happy when the Marquis's Mansion is ruined. It's a pity that you are greedy and stupid. You can't tell good from bad. You really think I am deeply in love with you!"
"Do you think Jasmine really loves you? She just wants to find someone to redeem herself and is greedy for fame and fortune! If you can't get hard, we will drug you in various ways. Your body will be ruined a long time ago."
"And that peasant girl, you are very proud of forcing girls of good families into prostitution, right? There are not enough brothels for you to visit, so you have to force girls from good families to obey you. She hates you so much that she keeps poisoning you, hahahaha..."
Every word Wan Niang said was like a sharp sword, piercing Liang Wanzhou's heart. Liang Wanzhou grabbed Wan Niang's neck and roared, "Shut up! Shut up!"
Wan Niang twisted Liang Wanzhou's wrist with force, with a hint of a carefree smile on her lips, "You won't live much longer, cough... cough cough..."
Wan Niang was exhausted, her hands dropped down, and her eyelids slowly closed. In her last moments, she could not remember what she was worried about in this life.
She has no father or mother, no relatives or friends, and has been training with many men and women since she can remember.
Their master was the Second Prince. Even though he was just a half-grown child at the time, he was able to control their life and death.
She remembered being locked up in a dark dungeon, tortured to death by poison, and someone fed her a sip of water, but she could no longer remember what that person looked like.
Wan Niang felt sad. Before she died, she couldn't even think of any sweetness, only bitterness.
In the dim light, she seemed to see the lady, who was coming towards the light like a goddess. If people could go to paradise after death, there should be only good people like the lady there.
"Stop!" Ji Yunhuan shouted and rushed over to hug the dying Wan Niang.
Liang Yunye was extremely fast and had already pulled Liang Wanzhou away. With a click, he broke Liang Wanzhou's arm directly, shattering the bones into pieces that could not be put back together.
Liang Wanzhou lay on the ground wailing. Liang Yunye kicked him and said with disdain, "What a beast! Bullying the weak is nothing. If you have the guts, go fight your grandfather!"
Shiqin took off her cloak and wrapped Wanniang up.
Wan Niang escaped death, but she was still a little bit unbelievable. She touched her clothes and finally became sure that the lady had really come and she was saved!
Her voice was a little hoarse, and she thanked Shiqin quietly.
Shiqin was afraid of tiring the lady, so she supported Wanniang herself and muttered, "I'm not feeling sorry for you, I just can't stand Master Liang. Even pigs and dogs are more loyal than him. After all, you are his bedmate, how can you be so cruel and even want to kill someone."
When Liang Wanzhou saw Ji Yunhuan coming, he no longer cared about killing Wan Niang. He struggled to get up from the ground and circled around Ji Yunhuan attentively.
"Madam, you are finally back. The Marquis's Mansion has fallen into decline. I thought Madam didn't want me anymore. But I know that Madam is kind-hearted. A friend in need is a friend indeed. Madam must be thinking of me in her heart."
"Today I will dismiss all my concubines. Whether to beat or kill, I will obey Madam. From now on, if Madam says east, I will never go west. I will stay with Madam and never go out to fool around again."
Ji Yunhuan said expressionlessly: "Since the Marquis hates these concubines, let them go with me. And Xiaohong, Xiaohong has served me before, I want Xiaohong's indenture."
Liang Wanzhou thought that Ji Yunhuan wanted to take revenge on these concubines, so he readily agreed. As long as Ji Yunhuan could calm down and change his mind, these concubines would have deserved their deaths.
Mrs. Wu knew that Ji Yunhuan was her son's only hope for a comeback, and she did not dare to act like a mother-in-law. She quickly found Xiaohong's indenture and sent both the indenture and the person to Ji Yunhuan.
Shiqin took Xiaohong's indenture and asked Xiaohong to support Wan Niang.
When the concubines saw the decline of the Marquis' Mansion, they became terrified, fearing that they would be sold out by the master. Jasmine and the peasant girl knelt in front of Ji Yunhuan and expressed their willingness to follow Ji Yunhuan.
The other concubines were afraid that the lady would torture them, so they did not dare to leave the mansion, and Ji Yunhuan did not force them.
Shiqin cleaned up quickly. From then on, there was no trace of the Madam in the Liang Mansion. Not even a piece of paper used by the Madam could be left in such a filthy place!
At the gate of Liang Mansion, Liang Wanzhou begged Ji Yunhuan in every possible way, but Ji Yunhuan still refused to stay. With Liang Yunye watching him, he couldn't even get close to Ji Yunhuan.
Liang Wanzhou winked at his mother, and Mrs. Wu was willing to do anything for her son.
Wu knelt down in front of Ji Yunhuan and cried loudly, "Daughter-in-law, please don't leave! It's all because of me, an old thing, who has caused the separation between you and your wife. I should leave. I will go back to my hometown now and will never bother you again."
Seeing that Ji Yunhuan was unmoved, Wu hardened her heart and slapped herself several times.
"You can beat me or scold me, I have no complaints. I just hope you can stay and live a good life with Wanzhou in the future. Even if I go to see the old marquis now, I can close my eyes in peace."
