Yang Wanyan frowned. Even though she was angry, it was a pity that she had no right to speak much in this occasion.
"Madam Yang just needs to apologize?" Concubine Wan looked at Ni Yueshan and asked in confusion.
"Of course not. Apologizing is one thing, being punished is another. What the Second Prince just said makes a lot of sense. If it weren't for Concubine Yang's instigation, how could General Zou suspect me and do such an outrageous thing? Therefore, those who spread rumors and mislead the public will be slapped in the face."
Yang Wanyan widened her eyes, feeling very annoyed!
Ni Yueshan is so proud, it would be better to let her continue to stay in the general's mansion. In this way, Ni Yueshan will have to bow to her, a concubine!
Ni Yueshan is simply letting himself go now!
"This matter has nothing to do with her!" Zou Yangyao looked at Ni Yueshan with obvious displeasure, and did not want Yang Wanyan to be punished together.
Ni Yueshan snorted coldly, "Nothing to do? You've never touched me since we got married. If it has nothing to do with her, how did you know I had a wound on the back of my shoulder?"
Yang Wanyan was different. She was a girl in the mansion who liked to play dirty tricks and pretend to be innocent and pitiful. Naturally, she would notice the problems with the original owner. Ni Yueshan guessed that it was Yang Wanyan who knew that she had a scar on her shoulder, not Zou Yangyao!
If Zou Yangyao had known earlier, he would have pushed her against the pillar in the Second Prince's mansion and kneaded more than just her face!
Ni Yueshan's words left Zou Yangyao speechless.
Yang Wanyan sobbed softly, "General, this is my fault. I shouldn't have instigated suspicion. I will accept the punishment. Please stop making trouble!"
As expected, Yang Wanyan is quite good at pretending to be weak and pitiful...
Ni Yueshan just curled his lips in indifference and disdain.
Zou Yangyao looked at Ni Yueshan with increasingly annoyed eyes.
The more sensible Yang Wanyan was, and the more weak and pitiful she looked, the more Zou Yangyao felt sorry for her and guilty about her, and the more he disliked and hated Ni Yueshan.
"Alright, since you know you're wrong, then accept the punishment obediently. Don't come out unless necessary. It's embarrassing!"
Concubine Wan criticized and looked at Ni Yueshan: "Yueshan, let's go sit down."
The other people present had had enough of watching the fun and walked towards their seats and sat down.
The Queen also changed the subject in time: "Today's bonfire dance hasn't started yet. It's getting late now. We'd better watch it early and go back to rest early. We have to travel again tomorrow."
Regarding today's incident, Zou Yangyao wanted to make a big fuss, so he chose this time period and this occasion.
Unfortunately, he was the unlucky one who was punished in the end. He was beaten with twenty military sticks just after his internal injuries had healed. Yang Wanyan was even more miserable. He was slapped thirty times. His mouth was swollen and red like a sausage, his cheeks were blue and purple, and his face looked like a ghost.
This matter was not concealed, and after it was spread, everyone started to make sarcastic jokes.
The next day, the team set out again.
Ni Yueshan was sitting in the carriage with her eyes closed, resting. Unexpectedly, a stone was thrown into the carriage, waking Ni Yueshan up. She lifted the curtain of the carriage to look, and she frowned.
"You're really looking for death."
"Don't say such harsh words. I will be careful and I won't die. Don't worry."
Shao Lecheng didn't care at all. He spoke lightly and acted even more boldly. He even walked next to her carriage. He was really not afraid of being discovered!
"You, if you have something to say, say it quickly, otherwise get out!"
With so many eyes watching in the team, is Shao Lecheng kidding about her life?
"As a woman, don't be rude. I came here because I heard about what happened yesterday and was worried about you. Seeing how arrogant you are now, I guess you are not hurt. That's all. My kindness is taken for granted."
As he said he was leaving, Ni Yueshan suddenly felt that he was being too rude to him.
Ni Yueshan coughed lightly and said, "Thank you for your concern. I'm fine."
Shao Lecheng showed a satisfied smile, and his footsteps were like ghosts, floating closer and closer to the carriage.
"When we get to our destination, I'll go hunting and treat you to a barbecue!"
Then Shao Lecheng was in a good mood, slowed down his pace, and gradually distanced himself from the carriage.
Ni Yueshan had to admire Shao Lecheng's courage. He actually dared to pretend to be a guard in public and even came over to talk to her. He was really careless and not afraid of death.
Zou Yangyao and Yang Wanyan were completely submissive, so Ni Yueshan didn't have to worry that the two would cause any more trouble.
She often closed her eyes and dozed off in the carriage. After a few nights, she arrived at the hunting ground.
Ni Yueshan got off the carriage. These days, he was trapped in the carriage and could not stretch freely, which was really uncomfortable.
She was still stretching when a sneer sounded from the side. Ni Yueshan turned around and saw that it was Yang Wanqing.
Yang Wanqing did not hide her hatred and disgust for her, and the expression on her face expressed it perfectly.
Ni Yueshan pretended not to see it and instructed Ren Mei, "Find out which tent my is. I need to go to sleep first."
Ren Mei understood and withdrew. Yang Wanqing said coldly, "My wrist hurts like hell. The swelling has finally gone down a little these days, but I will remember this pain for the rest of my life. Anyone who hurts me will be punished."
It was as if she was talking to herself, but Ni Yueshan seemed oblivious. A threat? A harsh remark?
She didn't feel that it was a humiliation, it was a reminder to her that she should be grateful if someone were to attack her.
Ni Yueshan turned and left. Yang Wanqing did not step forward to stop him. She turned around and left triumphantly.
Ni Yueshan entered the tent. Ren Mei was still making the bed. Seeing Ni Yueshan coming in, she said, "We've arrived at our destination today. There will be a small banquet. Men and women will eat separately. If you're hungry, why not have some cakes to fill your stomach first?"
"Can I not go?"
