Chapter 38 Can you hug me like you did last night?
It turns out you were worried about me.
The expression on Chen Ting's face softened suddenly. He glanced coldly at the Prince Bao who was paralyzed with fear, and put away his heavy sword to block Shen Wangshu's gaze.
So that his soft-hearted wife wouldn't feel sorry for the man when she saw his miserable appearance.
"Gu Ziliang is the second son of Prince Bao's Mansion. He has an elder brother who has made great achievements in his career. He is the future of Prince Bao's Mansion." Chen Ting said, "Madam, don't worry. Prince Bao doesn't dare to become my enemy because of this kid."
Shen Wangshu thought for a moment, but said: "My husband has not made any mistakes in these years. We must not give the emperor a handle because of this matter."
Didn’t you hear Gu Ziliang just say that the emperor had long wanted to target him?
Maybe Prince Bao didn't dare to do anything to Chen Ting in the past, but what if the old emperor would hold on to this matter?
"Well, I'll listen to you and spare his life." Chen Ting said calmly.
Before Gu Ziliang could breathe a sigh of relief, he heard the man change the subject: "But..."
In a flash, a broad, dry hand suddenly covered Shen Wangshu's eyes. She only felt a breeze passing by her ears, and then heard Gu Ziliang's tragic scream.
Shen Wangshu was frightened by the sound and trembled. He couldn't imagine what Chen Ting did to him - did he crack his balls? ? ?
The scream stopped after a while, and the big palm on his face was released.
Chen Ting was savoring the itch in his palm just now - the young lady was obviously quite frightened, her eyelashes were trembling in his palm, like a hundred claws scratching his heart, making him feel itchy and unbearable.
He held the man in his arms with some pity, somewhat regretting not shutting Gu Ziliang's mouth first.
"You, what did you do to him?" Shen Wangshu's voice trembled a little.
As expected, she was frightened. Chen Ting felt a little regretful, but not too much. He said, "Don't worry, I just taught him a small lesson."
Shen Wangshu leaned his head out from behind Chen Ting to see that Gu Ziliang was tied to a pillar, restricting his freedom and unable to escape even if he wanted to.
The whole person looked like he had just been pulled out of the water, with sweat all over his head and pale lips.
She carefully looked under him - there was no blood as she had imagined, and his clothes were not torn.
It seems that Chen Ting had her ex-husband sterilized.
He screamed like this...
Shen Wangshu's gaze continued to move, and he finally saw a pool of dark red blood under the wide sleeves of Prince Bao.
Jinyi almost sucked all the blood out, and the severed finger fell to the ground.
Chen Ting said calmly, "Pack up the prince's things and send them to Prince Bao."
"He can't manage his own son, so I will educate him for him."
Fuyao whispered yes, and swiftly picked up the severed finger and put it in the box.
Gu Ziliang had completely fainted.
"Let Ji Mingyi's men come and take him away. No one else is allowed to get close."
Wutong responded silently.
After doing all this, Chen Ting looked at Shen Wangshu again, and his voice was very gentle: “Madam, let’s go home.”
Shen Wangshu looked at the heavy sword dripping with blood behind him: “…Okay.”
How could she dare to refuse?
The lotus viewing banquet had not yet ended when the general and his wife took their leave. The Xiahou couple wanted to keep them, but they refused and got in the carriage and drove away as if something was chasing them.
Xiahou Jin watched the carriage of the Duke's Mansion leave and sighed, "I didn't expect Wangshu and the general to get along so well. The couple seems to be in harmony. I feel relieved."
"That's right. All the guests here today are here for the general's sake." Madam Xiahou was quite satisfied. "In this way, I am not sorry for the child."
*
It was not yet dark when they returned to Xuanji Courtyard. Chen Ting sat in the room polishing his sword. As he polished it, he said, "Were you old acquaintances of Gu Ziliang? He has many concubines in the backyard, which is not good."
Shen Wangshu: “…Hmm?”
As soon as the relationship came back, he started saying bad things about others. He must have heard a lot, right?
"Really? I later found out that the assassins were from Prince Bao's mansion, and soon they found Gu Ziliang."
"There is a concubine named Xiang'er in his courtyard who is quite resourceful. She is pregnant with the prince's child and wants to hide it from the public. On the surface, she promised to abort the child, but in fact she has been hiding it. She wants to give birth to the child and fight for a place for herself in Prince Bao's mansion."
Shen Wangshu looked up at him in surprise: "You even found out such a small matter?"
Chen Ting snorted coldly: "There are more."
"Gu Ziliang just kept saying he loved you, but in fact, not long after you left, he went out to have fun every day. Even when he came to Moyun to look for you, he also ordered a few beauties to accompany him at Furonglou."
"This person can't stand loneliness at all. He is a prodigal son who will never turn back and will only let you down. Don't be fooled by his appearance."
Shen Wangshu had never heard him talk so much before, and it was fresh and funny for a moment: "What else?"
"He thought you would go back without that concubine and the child, but I won't let him have his way." Chen Ting stared into her eyes and told her his dark plan: "I will help that woman give birth to the child."
"There will never be peace in his backyard, so he won't have time to bother you anymore."
Shen Wangshu couldn't help laughing: "Husband, you are really..."
"You think I'm too vicious, don't you?" Chen Ting interrupted her: "I treat my love rival like this because he came to my territory and wanted to steal my wife!"
"I just want to make Gu Ziliang feel bad. He slandered me and tarnished my image in front of you. I didn't kill him with a sword, which means I listened to your words." Chen Ting said stubbornly: "Don't plead for him anymore. I don't like to hear such words."
He didn't even continue to wipe his beloved heavy sword. Although he looked stubborn, he was actually paying close attention to Shen Wangshu's reaction, fearing that she would really show dissatisfaction on her face.
Seeing him so nervous, Shen Wangshu had no choice but to walk over, took the initiative to sit next to him and said softly: “My husband misunderstood, I am not trying to plead for him.”
"I don't care about Gu Ziliang at all. Who is in his backyard or what his concubine is like? It has nothing to do with me."
Chen Ting stared at the young lady, who was holding up her face and smiling at him: "I am going to spend my whole life with my husband!"
“I was just a little scared just now. I have never seen such a scene,” Shen Wangshu whispered, “If I have a nightmare tonight, can my husband hug me like he did last night?”
The negative emotions seemed to be smoothed away little by little by a gentle little hand. When Chen Ting heard him take the initiative to ask for a hug, her ears blushed: "Of course you can."
Shen Wangshu leaned over and kissed the tip of his ear: “Thank you, husband. You are so kind.”
