Chapter 139

He began to put his clothes in order.

Xie Wan Ning seized the opportunity and wanted to leave, but just as she turned around, she was frozen in place by his look and dared not move another step.

She was completely cornered by him. The delicate little girl looked so timid and timid, which made people want to bully her.

Seeing her like this, Lu Ziyan's throat rolled for a moment, and he pulled a smile on his lips, "What are you afraid of?"

He turned sideways to give her some space, looked at her and said, "When have I ever really bullied you?"

shameless!

Xie Wan Ning cursed inwardly, but without stopping, she quickly escaped from him.

She walked to the unconscious Erqing, so that she would not be alone and could gain some strength.

Lu Ziyan slowly dressed himself, but his eyes were glued to her. Seeing her indignant expression, he paused and said, "Do you want to know what it feels like when I really bully someone?"

Hearing this, Xie Wan Ning refused without thinking.

"Don't be afraid," he said with a smile, "I won't bully you."

His tone was gentle, and even contained a hint of coaxing, as if the two of them were a couple deeply in love.

But they had just had a fierce quarrel, and the places where he had rubbed her were still painful, and there was no way she could resolve the grudge.

She turned her head away from him and said, "Go away!"

"No," he straightened his clothes and didn't come closer. He just leaned against the wall with his shoulder tilted, looking at her with his head tilted, like a rogue, "I'll wait here for that old man to come and fight with him. Let you see with your own eyes how I bully people."

Xie Wan Ning looked at him in disbelief, "Do you still have any shame?"

If you come to someone else's house to block his wife like this, you will be condemned by everyone no matter who you tell.

Not to mention that he is just a prince who was lost outside, even if the current emperor himself came, there is no right for him to forcibly seize someone else's wife!

It would have been fine if he had just left quickly without sneaking around, but he actually waited for Pei Yuqing to come and fight.

Lu Ziyan sneered, "Because of you, I've almost become a laughing stock in the whole capital. How can I still have the face to show off?"

How can he still have the face to live when his wife has been taken away by someone else?

He came back from a long journey and broke into the bridal chamber at night, but he was unable to stop his beloved girl from getting married. Half a year had passed, and the news was known not only to the capital, but probably even to the foreigners in the northern border.

Even if no one dared to mention this matter to his face, Lu Ziyan understood that he had lost all his dignity and face because of such a fuss over a woman.

However, he didn't care either.

Having lived two lives, he has long realized what is most important in his heart. Compared to her, face is nothing.

As long as she is willing to come back, he can do anything.

Xie Wan Ning really didn’t understand. In her memory, this man had always been proud, firm in his words, and never bowed his head since his youth. What had he experienced to make him become such a thug?

No matter what you say, nice or bad, it's useless, he just shamelessly pesters her.

Lu Ziyan really had no intention of leaving. He looked around, walked to the tea table by the window and sat down. He raised his hand to pour a cup of tea, and when he was about to drink it, he suddenly stopped and asked her, "Would you like some?"

Xie Wan Ning turned her face away and ignored him.

"You've shed so many tears. If you don't drink some water, what will you do if you can't cry later?" He laughed and said, "Your tears are weapons. Maybe if you cry a few times later, I won't beat him."

What he said was actually from the heart, but his tone was so light that Xie Wan Ning only heard sarcasm. She was so angry at this man's shamelessness that she almost fumed.

She gritted her teeth and said, "Even if you beat him up, what can you solve? I'm still his wife!"

As she spoke, she also imitated his mocking smile: "Old Marquis Lu taught you to practice martial arts because he hoped you would defend your country, not to let you use force to seize someone else's wife!"

Robbery of a wife...

Lu Ziyan paused again in his action of drinking water. After a moment of silence, he took the teacup and drank it all in one gulp.

"So what are you going to do?" He said, "Wanwan, have you thought about how to deal with the three of us?"

Xie Wan Ning already knew how much of a gangster he was, and knew that it was useless to say anything, so she didn't want to waste her breath on him.

Lu Ziyan waited for a while, but she didn't say anything. He sighed and said, "Escape won't solve the problem. You should think seriously about what it will take for you to give me another chance."

"If possible, I don't want to scare you at all." He said, "But Wanwan, you can't be so cruel to me and not give me any hope."

Even the most heinous criminals should have specific criminal laws.

Since she didn't take his life, she couldn't ignore his existence, at least...

At least give him some hope.

Xie Wan Ning originally didn't want to speak, but when she saw him sitting up straight out of the corner of her eye, as if he was about to come over here, she had to speak.

"I am married."

She had said this countless times, and Lu Ziyan no longer had the anger he had at the beginning. He said, "What's the big deal? There are many women in this dynasty who remarried after divorce. Even Taizu's Empress Xiaohui entered the palace as a second marriage, didn't she?"

That's because her husband died, and Taizu valued her and remarried her into the palace, instead of waiting for someone to survive and snatch my wife away!
But Xie Wan Ning only dared to grumble in her heart, not being able to speak out her anger.

Lu Ziyan said: "You don't have to worry about anything, just nod your head gently, and I will take care of everything."

This was said as if they were in love with each other.

Xie Wan Ning sneered secretly and said bluntly: "I never thought about divorce."

"Is that so?" Lu Ziyan was not angry at all. He nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Then being a widow is fine."

The tone was light, as if talking about something not worth mentioning.

"Lu Ziyan!" Xie Wan Ning was shocked and angry, staring at him, "I know you are used to doing whatever it takes, but not everything can go your way."

"Even if you kill him, I won't marry you. Don't force me!"

"Don't force me!" Lu Ziyan stood up suddenly, gritting his teeth: "Do you like that old man so much? Now that he's dead, are you still going to stay faithful to him? Why can't you be fair?"

"It has nothing to do with others. I am the one who can't get over this. I may not be as smart as you, nor do I have as many means as you, but I am not so heartless as to forget my miserable past life."

Xie Wan Ning said: "In my opinion, no matter what your reasons are, no matter how much you regret hurting me like that, the broken mirror can never be mended, and our fate as husband and wife ended in the previous life."

"Who said we can't get back together? I'll pay you back everything I owe you, as long as you give me a chance!" Lu Ziyan strode closer and leaned over to look at her, "What did I owe you in my previous life?"

He approached suddenly, and Xie Wan Ning hurriedly dodged inside and said urgently: "Don't come over!"

"..." Lu Ziyan looked at her speechlessly and took a half step back, "I don't eat people." "It was all my fault in the previous life. You can vent your anger however you want. Since you and I can live again, why can't the broken mirror be put back together?"

Xie Wan Ning sneered. How stupid must she be to not be satisfied with dying once, to live again and jump into his fire pit again.

Lu Ziyan looked at her steadily, as if he knew what she was thinking. He said, "I know you have resentment in your heart. I will let you take revenge bit by bit."

He had said this many times, and Xie Wan Ning's ears were callused from hearing it, so she didn't want to pay any attention to it. But as soon as she turned her head away, she felt her waist tighten.

I felt dizzy and when I came to my senses, I found myself being carried on his shoulders and walking out.

"Where are you taking me?" She panicked and kept struggling.

Lu Ziyan patted her buttocks and said, "Behave yourself. I'll take you out to vent your anger first."

The door of the wing room was opened, and the cold air swept in instantly. Lu Ziyan put the girl on his shoulders onto the horse and climbed on himself.

Xie Wan Ning was wearing a skirt, which made it inconvenient for her to ride a horse, so she sat sideways. It was freezing cold, and the saddle was icy. She shivered several times as soon as she sat on it.

She was panicked and scared, not caring about anything. She kept struggling and trying to jump down, but the hands on her waist were like iron clamps, tightly holding her.

"I won't sell you out, why are you panicking!" Lu Ziyan pinched her waist and warned her, "If you don't want to be acupunctured, just be quiet."

He took the cloak handed to him by Ming Jian and wrapped himself tightly around himself, even putting on a hat, leaving only half of his face exposed. As if that was not enough, he held the back of her neck and pressed her face into his arms.

The horse under his crotch galloped down the mountain, so fast that he could hear the whistling of the cold wind. Even though she was wrapped in a cloak, the girl in his arms was still shivering with cold. Lu Ziyan frowned slightly and put his hand into the cloak and stroked her back.

Xie Wan Ning felt a warm current flowing through his palms, and every part of her body felt warm.

After regaining some strength, he began to struggle again, cursing with all the abusive words he could think of.

"Stay in my arms, don't move." Lu Ziyan listened indifferently, rubbed her forehead with his chin, and said, "I will want you."

As if to prove that what he said was true, he clasped his hands around his waist.

Xie Wan froze for a moment, unable to control the anger in his heart any longer, and opened his mouth to bite his chest.

Being threatened by him in this way many times, I was so angry that I even wanted to die with him.

She used all her strength to pour out her anger and hatred for his repeated oppression of her.

It's like biting off a piece of meat.

The moment the pain came, Lu Ziyan's body instinctively tensed up. After he came to his senses, he relaxed his muscles, took a deep breath, and tightened his hand on her lower back.

By the time Running Cloud stopped, Xie Wan Ning's mouth was already filled with the sweet and fishy taste of rust, but she still held on tightly and refused to let go.

Lu Ziyan gently stroked the back of her neck, then pinched her jaw. Seeing that she had no intention of letting go, he simply let her bite it and carried her off the horse sideways.

"See General!"

The sound of orderly footsteps brought Xie Wan Ning back to her senses. She raised her head and saw a dozen soldiers in armor.

Even on snowy days, training at the martial arts arena never stopped.

...This is a military camp.

Lu Ziyan actually brought her to the military camp outside Beijing!
She thought he was going to take her to another brothel to flirt with her...

After realizing where this place was, Xie Wan Ning buried her face in his arms again, not daring to let anyone see her.

Lu Ziyan lowered his eyes and glanced at her, then walked towards his own camp without stopping.

Ming Jian, who had been following him all the way, took a few quick steps and opened the door for him.

The room was as cold as ice. He glanced at her and ordered, "Light some charcoal and bring it over."

Ming Jian took the order and left.

The moment the door closed, Xie Wan Ning was put down, and the cloak she was wrapped in was casually thrown on the chair by Lu Ziyan.

He reached out and lifted her chin, wiped the blood from the corner of her lips with his fingertips, and said, "Are you relieved?"

Seeing the hatred in her eyes, he tore open his clothes.

The wound was located above the left atrium. She had used a lot of strength, and even through the thick winter clothes, she still bit it and left a bloody mark.

Lu Ziyan laughed and asked, "Still biting?"

"Bite here and leave a mark for him to see, how about that?" He pointed to his neck.

Xie Wan Ning's pupils shrank slightly, and she finally understood how he knew what happened last night.

It turned out to be the case.

He saw the teeth marks on Pei Yuqing's neck.

"That old man is scheming," seeing that she still didn't speak, Lu Ziyan said, "Maybe he wanted me to see it on purpose. What do you think he is planning?"

Although she knew that what he said was meant to sow discord, Xie Wan Ning couldn't help but think along the lines of what he said.

If Pei Yuqing really wanted Lu Ziyan to see the traces she left on purpose, then what was his purpose?
"Don't you understand? Let me guess."

Lu Ziyan said, "He probably wants me to behave inappropriately in front of the palace, so that the emperor and the ministers will be disappointed in me. His ultimate goal is to make me lose the qualification to inherit the throne so that my 'eldest brother' can take the throne."

A single misconduct in front of the palace might not be enough to shake his position, but if such incidents happened several times, it would certainly have an impact.

After all, once he encountered the matter of this girl, all his usual strategic plans and unshakable determination turned to dust, and he lost all his rationality.

Indeed, when he saw the tooth mark, his mind went blank for a moment.

If he hadn't thought that maybe that sickly guy had learned Liu Manrou's tricks and got some from somewhere in order to provoke him, and he couldn't use such low-level tricks, he would probably have been unable to resist taking action in front of the emperor.

Even so, he was still restless and couldn't wait a moment to ask her for confirmation.

"This is his first goal. If that doesn't work, there's still a second one." Lu Ziyan gently stroked her delicate jaw with his fingertips. He couldn't help but get closer and said, "He is sure that even if I didn't misbehave in front of the palace, he would definitely come to you to find out the truth afterwards."

"He has calculated it right. If you are in Puxian Temple today, I will go to Puxian Temple. If you are in Peiguo Mansion, then I will go to Peiguo Mansion. I must see you. As for what I will do after seeing you and making sure that you have consummated your marriage and when I am filled with jealousy..."

At this point, he paused for a moment, laughed, and said, "Wanwan, I really wanted to have you there just now."

As for why I stopped, perhaps love prevailed.

She probably hasn't realized yet that he just can't stand seeing her cry, ever since she was a child.

It's just that he doesn't want anyone to see his true feelings or weaknesses.

Wait for me~~~
