Seeing his daughter staring at Lian Qiao, Wang's father asked, "What do you plan to do with him?"
"Beat him to death with sticks," Wang Fengyue said coldly.
Wang's father breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that his daughter would soften her heart and show mercy. Such a vicious husband could not be kept in the mansion.
Lian Qiao laughed miserably; he finally understood how Chen Zhishao had felt back then.
In the end, however, he was still inferior to him.
Chen Zhishao at least had the protection of the Chen family's status, so she was only exiled to the family temple, while he, a servant, couldn't even save his life in the end.
Even if the master of the house kills someone, no one will care.
As Lian Qiao was being dragged away, she saw the Fifth Prince standing to the side and suddenly felt a glimmer of hope. "Your Highness, save me! I don't want to die! For the sake of all the years I've served you, please spare my life!"
Wang Fengyue's expression was rather grim. Could it be that the Fifth Prince really wanted to save him?
The Fifth Prince said expressionlessly, "From the moment you became her servant, our years of friendship were wiped clean."
Lian Qiao's face turned ashen instantly, and she was dragged away.
No one knows whether Lian Qiao regretted becoming Wang Fengyue's servant in the moment before she died.
Wang Fengyue believed that the Fifth Prince was still deeply in love with her, and after so many things, she was tired and suddenly had the idea of living a good life with the Fifth Prince.
"Cousin, I..." Wang Fengyue was interrupted by the Fifth Prince before he could finish speaking.
"I'm tired, so I'll go back and rest first."
Wang Fengyue felt embarrassed by being humiliated like this. She must be crazy to have such a thought. This Fifth Prince was still so annoying. She and he could never get along.
But her father called out to the Fifth Prince, "Yan'er."
"What is it?"
Although Wang Jun was dissatisfied with the Fifth Prince's cold attitude, he couldn't show any displeasure now that he needed a favor.
"Is that so? You're aware of Yue'er's condition. Could you please go to the palace and invite a few imperial physicians to examine Yue'er?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Fengyue also looked at the Fifth Prince with hopeful eyes.
Wang Jun was originally full of confidence. His father-in-law had spoken, so how could he disagree? Besides, it was his wife's illness that was being treated, not an outsider's.
Seeing that the Fifth Prince did not respond for a long time, he became a little flustered. This was a major event concerning his daughter's entire life!
So Wang Jun pressed on, saying, "If Yue'er loses her fertility, wouldn't that be a problem for you too?"
Wei Wuyan smiled.
When Wang Jun saw this, he realized that things were going well, so he smiled.
But his smile quickly froze.
"What does it matter to me? We haven't even consummated our marriage yet, how could we possibly have a child out of thin air?"
Wang Fengyue felt somewhat embarrassed, but he was also annoyed that the Fifth Prince was shameless.
Wang Jun glared at his daughter, intending to say that they could consummate their marriage, but the Fifth Prince's next words enraged him.
"Besides, I am a prince. If I want a child, is there no one who can give it to me?"
"At worst, I'll just keep a few female concubines." Thinking about it now, oh right, why didn't he think of that before!
Wei Wuyan seemed to have opened the door to a new world.
This way, he wouldn't have to please women; instead, his daughters would coax him, making Wang Fengyue unable to hold his head high in public.
Ha! That's killing two birds with one stone!
This is openly cheating on her!
Wang Fengyue felt that if she didn't say anything, she wouldn't be a real woman.
"You, you have completely violated the duties of a husband! I want a divorce!"
Wang Junxin's heart skipped a beat. This wouldn't do! Her illness still depended on him for treatment.
Wei Wuyan sneered. Divorce her? She doesn't deserve it! If anyone should be divorced, it should be him!
"Alright, then let's go to the Queen Mother and see what charges you'll use to divorce me!"
“Of course it’s the crime of lewdness,” Wang Fengyue said, sticking out his neck.
Do you have any evidence? Just your words?
Wang Fengyue was indeed speechless, and the Fifth Prince was only talking.
After the initial excitement wore off, Wang Fengyue looked embarrassed.
It was Wang Jun who stepped in to smooth things over, saying, "Yan'er, don't mind her. You know Yue'er is just straightforward. You shouldn't take her words seriously."
"But what about Yue'er's illness, you see..."
"Alright, I will tell Father." The Fifth Prince readily agreed.
Wang Jun was overjoyed.
Wang Fengyue also felt that the Fifth Prince still cared about her, otherwise he wouldn't have agreed; he was just saying it in anger.
Wei Wuyan thought to himself, "It would be even more painful to give them hope and then let them despair."
They actually came up with the idea of getting an antidote from the murderer!
The following day, Wei Wuyan led Wang Fengyue and Wang Jun to Fengwu Palace to find the Empress.
The two men explained their purpose to the Queen.
The Queen smiled and said, "I see. It's nothing serious."
After saying this, he ordered someone to summon the imperial physician.
"How is it? Is it curable?" Wang Jun looked at the imperial physician with eager eyes.
The imperial physician shook his head and said, "It can be cured, but it's a bit troublesome."
“We’re not afraid of trouble,” Wang Jun said hurriedly.
Wang Fengyue looked at the imperial physician with excitement. If he could be cured, that would be great. Let's see how smug Wang Fenglun can be now!
"This toxin is potent and requires slow, gentle decoction and conditioning, which may take up to a year."
The imperial physician paused for a moment and then said, "You must abstain from sexual relations with men for a year."
Wang Fengyue was initially overjoyed to hear this, but became somewhat disappointed upon hearing the second half.
This is all we can do for the future.
"Thank you for your help, Imperial Physician."
"It's alright, it's my duty."
The Fifth Prince sneered when he saw Wang Fengyue's grief-stricken expression upon learning that he could not have sex for a year.
Wang Fengyue glanced at him instantly, but could not say anything because the Empress was present.
The two expressed their gratitude before leaving.
The fifth prince, however, remained with the Empress.
The Empress summoned the imperial physician again, saying, "You did a good job; you received everything you were entitled to."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." The imperial physician bowed in gratitude.
How could the Empress allow someone who hurt Xiao Wu like this to live? It's only because Xiao Wu wants to take revenge himself.
However, we can't let them live such a carefree life.
Therefore, the Queen had already given Wang Fengyue a drug, thus preventing him from having any offspring.
There is absolutely no possibility of a cure.
As for the antidote, it was the force that sent them to hell.
These things had nothing to do with Wei Wangqing, and she was unaware of them.
However, the upcoming royal hunt is closely related to this.
This time, Wei Wangqing will go with Chen Zhiyan.
In late spring, the scene is once again filled with the sounds of birdsong and the warmth of spring flowers.
The Royal Hunting Grounds.
Everyone shed their cumbersome robes and donned clean and neat riding attire.
Most of the women present were full of enthusiasm and eager to show off their skills.
As for winning first place, that's highly unlikely; didn't you see the Crown Princess still eager to try?
The Queen also came, but her health no longer allowed her to participate.
Therefore, the situation on the field was left to the control of the Crown Princess and Prince An.
The Empress, on the other hand, remained an observer, occasionally offering words of encouragement and lightening the mood.
