Chapter 135: Pay Back What You Owe Me, One Piece at a Time (Part 2)
Pingxi Hou's face turned pale. "This is a misunderstanding. Don't be impulsive."
Jiang Wenzhou's forehead hit the table and bench, causing severe pain. He wiped his forehead and smeared blood on his hand. He was furious and said, "I didn't do that. You're talking nonsense."
Yun Zheng's eyes were cold. "Hit me, just leave a breath behind."
At her command, the guards rushed forward and beat Jiang Wenzhou violently, and anyone who tried to stop them would be beaten as well.
For a moment, only Jiang Wenzhou's shrill screams could be heard.
Soon, Jiang Wenzhou was knocked to the ground. He curled up into a ball, holding his head and begging for mercy, "Stop, stop."
No one would stop unless Yun Zheng shouted.
The Jiang family was terrified and trembling. She was clearly here for revenge! What a terrifying woman!
The Marquis' wife was both frightened and angry, "Yun Zheng, you are bullying me by taking advantage of your power."
In the past, the Pingxi Marquis Mansion was high and mighty and did not take Yun Zheng seriously at all. They looked down on her background but wanted her money, so they just wanted to trick her into coming home and then send her to hell with a prescription of medicine.
But now, the people they trampled on came back to kill them fiercely.
"Yes, I just rely on the emperor's power, so what?"
She was arrogant and domineering, which made the Jiang family very angry, but they had no way to deal with her.
The fact that she was the one who issued the imperial edict showed that the emperor had tacitly approved it. The emperor was really getting old and confused.
Jiang Wenzhou was beaten to the ground, covered in blood, and begged weakly, "Please spare me."
Yun Zheng looked at him coldly, "Do you know you're wrong?"
Jiang Wenzhou burst into tears, looking utterly embarrassed. "I know I was wrong, I know I was wrong."
Yun Zheng stood with her hands behind her back, looking down at him, "Very good, then kowtow to me ten times and apologize to me."
Jiang Wenzhou looked up in disbelief, "Are you crazy? Dream on! I'd rather die than kneel down to you."
Yun Zheng didn't even blink, "Go on."
Another round of beatings, Jiang Wenzhou was on the verge of death, and he felt like he was going to die. "That's enough, stop beating me, I'll knock it, I'll knock it."
Yun Zheng raised her hand and everyone stopped.
"If you don't accept my toast, you'll have to drink the wine for punishment, you bastard."
The Jiang family members looked extremely unhappy. Not only did they beat people, but they also humiliated them.
Pingxi Hou angrily shouted, "Yun Zheng, you are so petty and cruel. Does the emperor know?"
Yun Zheng smiled slightly, "I'll tell the emperor that you've been saying bad things about him behind his back, saying that..."
She paused deliberately, her expression meaningful.
Pingxi Hou couldn't help but get anxious, "What on earth did you say?"
Yun Zheng said seriously, "You said the emperor is narrow-minded and intolerant, and he disgusted the Pingxi Marquis Mansion for such a small matter."
These are all true. Pingxi Hou did say them, but he only complained to his son a few times. How did she know?
His scalp tingled and he was sweating profusely from nervousness. "I never said that. It was just a lie."
He looked at the imperial guards and eunuchs and said, "Everyone, please help me speak a fair word."
A guard of the Imperial Guard said sternly, "You said so."
The other also nodded, "Yes, you have said more than once that you have long been dissatisfied with the emperor."
These people all received Yun Zheng's money, so naturally they spoke up for her.
Besides, this is a small matter. The Pingxi Marquis Mansion has already fallen on hard times and it is unlikely to recover in this lifetime. So what's wrong with stepping on it?
Pingxi Hou gasped, "You... have all been bribed by Yun Zheng! Yun Zheng, you bribed the imperial guards, are you planning a rebellion?"
Treat others in their own way and use the rebellion as an excuse.
However, Yun Zheng is a woman, and she is not a member of the royal family, nor is she a descendant of a noble group.
"Why would a woman like me rebel? The emperor gets up earlier than the chickens and goes to bed later than the dogs. He works hard every day for the country. It's too hard. I just want to eat, drink and have fun."
The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, "Marquis Pingxi, you don't think that once you hand over the red book and iron certificate, the world will be at peace, right?"
Pingxi Hou's expression changed drastically as if struck by thunder. "What do you mean? What do you know?"
He was so nervous, it seemed that the secret of the Danshu Tiequan was not small. Yun Zheng seemed to be thinking about something, but did not continue.
"Jiang Wenzhou, are you going to kneel or not?"
What she wanted was to break his spine, knock out his pride, and make his spiritual world completely collapse.
Jiang Wenzhou was trembling all over, biting his lip and blood flowing down his lips.
He resisted with all his might, but under the strong pressure, he had to kneel down.
With a "thump", he knelt in front of Yun Zheng. Endless humiliation surged into his heart like a tide, and he was ashamed and angry to death.
He never thought that one day he would kneel down to a woman.
Moreover, this woman was their carefully selected prey.
"I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I kowtow to you."
He kowtowed, again and again, for a full ten times.
Every time it was like a torture to him, and he gradually collapsed inside.
Marquis Pingxi closed his eyes, as if he heard the sound of the marquis's backbone being broken.
She humiliated not only Jiang Wenzhou but the entire Pingxi Marquis Mansion.
If this gets out, how will the Pingxi Marquisate face people?
Yun Zheng stared at the scene in a daze, recalling the humiliating scene in her previous life when she was forced to kneel in front of Jiang Wenzhou and Ye Yichen by a group of slaves.
They laughed contemptuously, stepped on her hands, and broke them.
She was in excruciating pain, but she had to hold on and refused to shed a single tear.
What goes around comes around.
God will punish evil, and if you don't believe me, look up and see who God will spare.
This is just the beginning. She wants to destroy the Pingxi Marquis Mansion with her own hands. Only in this way can she vent the hatred in her heart.
She looked around. Hey, there was one person missing. "Where's Ye Yizhen?"
She looked like she was looking for trouble. Jiang Wenyue thought for a moment, "She is recuperating at the Ye Mansion."
Yun Zheng was stunned for a moment, "Which Ye Mansion?"
Jiang Wenyue said loudly, "Princess Yong'an bought a large house with five entrances in East City, and hung a plaque with the name Ye Mansion on it."
The emperor did not allow Princess Yong'an to set up her own residence, so she had to find another way.
Yun Zheng's eyes lit up. "Jiang Wenzhou, you're wrong. Husband and wife should share honor and disgrace. Ye Yizhen is living comfortably as the eldest daughter, so how can you suffer alone?"
"Go and bring her back."
Yun Zheng didn't shout, so Jiang Wenzhou just kept kneeling, "Princess Yong'an won't let me."
No matter what, Princess Yong'an is still a member of the royal family, and no one dares to offend her even if she falls out of favor.
After all, that would be a slap in the face of the royal family.
Yun Zheng scolded him angrily, "Idiot, it would be better if she didn't allow you to. You can move in with your whole family and eat and drink her food and drink her drinks."
"Living in the house your wife brought as a dowry, eating and drinking what your wife gave you, that's what your Jiang family is best at."
Her words were harsh, but it was like opening up a new world. Everyone's eyes lit up and they were eager to take action.
Jiang Wenzhou gritted his teeth and said, "I'm not going."
Yun Zheng threw a punch and asked, "Are you going or not?"
Jiang Wenzhou was hit on the nose and tears came down from the pain. "Go!"
Yun Zheng retracted her little hand and blew a breath, "You cheap bone, you won't feel comfortable if you don't hit me."
She said excitedly, "Come on, I'll take you there."
Giving it as a gift is fake, but causing trouble is real!
Little rascal!
