Chapter 110 If you don't criticize me harshly, I won't recognize you as my brother

If he hadn't known all this through Jiujiu's inner voice, he might have been kept in the dark his entire life, not knowing what kind of miserable life Xiao Jingwen was living, a life worse than death.

The eldest prince suddenly lost the mood to eat.

He stood in the yard, looking in the direction of Xiao Jingwen's husband's house for a long time, his eyes were hot and tears flowed.

He murmured in confusion: "Why didn't Jingwen's best friend tell me about this?"

"Could it be that Jingwen has kept this secret from even her closest friends?"

"She has been bearing the pain alone?"

The eldest prince felt more and more heartbroken the more he thought about it.

Late at night, after Jiujiu fell asleep, the eldest prince secretly flew to the house of Xiao Jingwen's husband, a captain, a three-story house near the city gate.

The eldest prince had secretly flown this road many times by himself and could find it with his eyes closed.

But every time the eldest prince came secretly, he would just stand quietly outside the house for a while, never crossing the line, and never seeing Xiao Jingwen.

He was worried about causing trouble for Xiao Jingwen.

He felt that as long as he could be close to Xiao Jingwen and breathe the same air, he would be satisfied.

He doesn't ask for anything else.

But today, after the eldest prince arrived at Li's house, he did not stand far away like a gentleman. Instead, he flew to the roof and swept his sharp eyes over every corner of the house. He looked everywhere for Xiao Jingwen.

After searching for a long time, he finally found it.

It was found in front of the main hall in the front yard.

Xiao Jingwen knelt on the cold ground in front of the main hall, wearing thin clothes. A man who looked like a servant poured a basin of cold water on her head. She was shivering with cold and her teeth were chattering.

And her husband was sitting not far from her, looking at her with his arms around her. There wasn't a single bit of pity in his eyes, only indifference, endless indifference.

The eldest prince was so impulsive that he almost went down to save people.

But he came here secretly after all, and he was in the wrong. If he continued like this, Xiao Jingwen's reputation would be ruined, and her life in her husband's family would only become more difficult.

He can't go down.

The eldest prince clenched his fists and held back.

Because he used too much force, his fingernails broke the palm of his hand and blood flowed out and dripped onto the dark green tiles under his feet.

In the courtyard, Lieutenant Li looked at Xiao Jingwen, who was shivering from the cold, and asked, "Xiao Jingwen, are you going to tell me that you don't like the eldest prince? Do you hate the eldest prince?"

The reason why Xiao Jingwen was treated like this by Captain Li today was because Captain Li couldn't hear what he wanted to hear and took his anger out on Xiao Jingwen.

What he wanted to hear was Xiao Jingwen saying that she didn't like the eldest prince and hated him.

Why?

Because the fact that the eldest prince asked for permission to marry Xiao Jingwen had always been a thorn in Lieutenant Li's heart, he felt that his dignity as a man had been challenged.

When he proposed to Xiao Jingwen, because Xiao Jingwen's family background was slightly higher than his, he didn't dare to say anything or show any concern.

But after they got married, things were no longer the same.

Captain Li has been thinking of various tricks to flatten Xiao Jingwen so as to restore some of his dignity that was challenged in the past.

"Answer me?" Seeing that Xiao Jingwen didn't answer for a long time, Captain Li stepped forward, grabbed Xiao Jingwen's hair, and said, "Hurry up? I don't have much patience."

Xiao Jingwen snorted stubbornly and refused to say anything.

Captain Li uses this kind of lousy trick every now and then.

At the beginning, Xiao Jingwen would deal with it, but now she is too lazy to deal with it.

Upon seeing this, Captain Li raised his hand to slap Xiao Jingwen, but a stone flew in from somewhere and hit his hand, breaking the back of his hand and preventing him from hitting Xiao Jingwen.

Captain Li was alert: "Who? Who hit me?"

The eldest prince who had beaten someone had long disappeared.

A moment later, the family of Wei Yang, the newly appointed commander-in-chief of the city patrol next door, suddenly caught fire.

Everyone in the whole house was in a panic, and kept shouting, "There's a fire, there's a fire, get some water quickly," and so on.

The noise was quite loud, even Captain Li heard it.

Captain Li had always wanted to please Wei Yang so that he could join the City Patrol and become a deputy commander or a deputy general. This would be better than being a small captain now. However, he had no chance to get close to Wei Yang, even if they lived next door.

Now I finally have the chance.

Captain Li smiled and said, "God is helping me. I will go and help put out the fire right away."

"Come with me."

Xiao Jingwen was temporarily let go. She let out a tired breath and slumped to the ground.

·

Next door is Wei Yang, the home of Commander Wei.

Wei Yang looked at the eldest prince standing in front of him with resentment, poked his index finger and cursed: "Feng Tianmo, you bastard, if you want to save people, just save them directly, why burn my house?"

"Did my house attract you or provoke you?"

The eldest prince snorted disdainfully and said, "I didn't burn down your entire house. I only burned down the main hall where guests were received. Can't you just rebuild it? As for the money for the reconstruction, I will pay for it for you, brother."

"I won't set this fire in vain."

"We have fought in the battlefield together and risked our lives together."

Wei Yang is a brother that the eldest prince met on the battlefield. The two have killed enemies together, fought for their lives, and shed blood, and they have a deep friendship.

Now Wei Yang can become the new commander-in-chief of the City Patrol Guard, thanks to the recommendation of the eldest prince.

It's true that Wei Yang was grateful, but when it came to something like a burned house, no matter what the reason, he still had to argue a few words.

"Do I care about the money for rebuilding the house?" Wei Yang said, "What I care about is where to receive my guests in the future? In the yard? When drinking tea, do they stand up? It's really disrespectful."

The eldest prince laughed when he heard this. He was in a bad mood and really didn't want to laugh, but he couldn't help it.

"Wei Yang, you are a rough guy. You never take off your socks when you wash your feet. You only take a bath once every three months. You don't brush your teeth properly. You often don't wash your face for several days. You actually learned to be a sour scholar like those scholars? How disrespectful! Hahaha..."

"I was on the battlefield." Wei Yang said, "It's understandable that you don't pay attention to hygiene on the battlefield. I wash my face, brush my teeth and take a bath every day..."

"Stop talking nonsense." The eldest prince didn't want to hear this, so he dragged Wei Yang to the next room and told him, "Go next door now and say you are hiding from the fire. When you see Xiao Jingwen kneeling in front of the main hall and being poured cold water, remember to criticize her husband, Lieutenant Li severely."

"If you don't criticize me harshly, I won't recognize you as my brother."

"From now on, we will go our separate ways."

Since the eldest prince was not in a position to handle matters himself, he had to leave it to Wei Yang.

Wei Yang said, "Go our separate ways? Haha, you are so cruel!" He paused, "...watch me."

"I can't stand beating a woman, even if it's not because of you." Wei Yang said, "I will make him pay the price."
