Doting on your wife to no end: The evil regent is reborn and is too clingy

Yu Guming's anger was ignited again. He kept telling himself in his heart that this was his brother, and apart from his children, he was his only blood relative in this world.

"I know!" Captain Yu said cleverly, "The Regent King likes other women!"

He leaned forward and said, "Brother, I caught a young sister-in-law who eloped today. She looks like a watermelon in June. It's all juicy when you hit her with a stick! Believe me! Wash her and send her to the regent's bed. I guarantee that the old man will be so happy that he won't even know where his ancestors are!"

Yu Gu Ming endured it.

"If it doesn't work, let's give that old guy some medicine and give him a rest for three days and three nights. Who knows, maybe he will really come to our Lingzhou every year to protect us in the future?"

"Who do you think the Regent is?!"

Yu Guming raised his leg and kicked him, "If we let it out, those idiots will get suspicious. You f*cking believed it?"

"Serve, serve! Serve me all day long! I ask you to serve me!"

The more Yu Guming thought about it, the angrier he got. He used his hands and feet to move, "Just go if I tell you to! Why are you talking so much nonsense!"

Poor Captain Yu was as tall as two men. He tucked his feet in, hugged his head, and dodged awkwardly. "Brother, calm down, calm down! I, your humble subordinate, will go right away."

Looking at his brother's broad back, Yu Guming gnashed his teeth in hatred, "How could your parents give birth to such a thing as you?"

Yu Guming was not born into a prominent family. He relied on his own efforts to pass the imperial examination and obtained the title of Tongjinshi. It took him many years to rise from a county magistrate to a prefect. Now he is able to deceive his superiors and subordinates, monopolize Lingzhou, and make a lot of money. This is naturally due to the advice of Qi Rong and Lu Anyong behind the scenes.

What's more, he is smart himself.

Otherwise, the snakes and rats in the city and the jackals outside the city would have eaten him alive long ago. How could they be willing to work for him?

"Your Excellency seems very worried?" The master has never been out of Lingzhou. Even though he is well-educated, some of his knowledge is still difficult to achieve. "I heard that the regent has a bad reputation, is murderous and lustful, has countless beauties in his mansion, and is also greedy for the queen mother. He used his power to force the queen mother to marry him. I think what you said may not be a bad suggestion."

"Bad reputation? The Prince Regent is notorious in Lingzhou. Has he ever done anything bad?" Yu Guming sneered. "His bad reputation is probably caused by his political enemies."

"He is the regent! He kills without blinking an eye, who can discredit him?" The master didn't believe it, "Your Excellency is so sure, but what news did you get?"

Yu Guming tilted his head slightly and squinted at his advisor, "I tried every possible way to stay in the capital, but in the end I was only a small local official. If those old foxes in the capital really don't obey the regent, can the regent still safely hold the power?"

"Let's not talk about anything else. If his eyes, ears, brain, and hands are not there, the capital will be in chaos during the year he's been in Jizhou, and Daxia will change its ruler. How can he be of any use?"

"He just doesn't care about the reputation."

Yu Guming bent two fingers, knelt on the table with his knuckles together, "I never passed by Lingzhou when I went south, but I had to come here when I went north to Beijing. Jizhou was hit by a major epidemic, and Lingzhou also produced many people and things. Could it be that someone said something? He found out something and came here on purpose?"

"Your Excellency means that the Regent wants to dig up old cases and investigate old accounts?"

"Looking up old cases and checking old accounts?" Yu Guming seemed to be enlightened. He turned around abruptly and looked at his lawyer.

Over the years, he has killed hundreds of people, if not thousands. If they were to investigate, given the regent's brutal temper, he would even chop the Yu family's earth dragons vertically.

"Then he won't be able to find out."

"A powerful dragon cannot defeat a local snake. Your Excellency wants to - go all out?"

The master raised his palm as if it were a knife and gestured downwards.

Yu Guming used to think that the people under his command didn't need to be too smart, for fear that he would be unable to control them. But now, he just thinks that stupid people are annoying.

"Not to mention how many powerful guards the Regent has around him, he once broke into the enemy camp alone and stepped on the head of the ever-victorious General of the Western Rong, which frightened the late emperor so much that he issued an urgent order to summon him. Who is more of a 'local tyrant' between you and him? He is the ancestor of local tyrants!" He is used to being unreasonable and acting like a hooligan!

What a bunch of idiots! Yu Guming wished he could chop off his master's head with his knife. "Call the county magistrate, and notify the people in Qifeng Village not to go down the mountain in the near future, let alone come to the city."

He has to prepare for both scenarios.

After all - if a man does not work for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth.

I just hope that the Regent will be sensible and just stay for two nights before leaving, and not overreach, so that we can all get through these two days in peace. Otherwise, I will have no choice but to take the risk and be rude to him.

After the curfew that night, all the women of "King of the World" were moved out of the city.

The sound of horse hooves could be heard from afar in the prison. Shen Yangui saw that Mo Chengying was extremely disgusted with this environment.

"Your Highness the Regent?"

She patted her legs and gestured with her eyebrows: Come over to the lady's legs.

Mo Chengying curved his lips into a smile, and as he was about to sit down, he picked up Shen Yangui with both hands.

Shen Yangui let out a low cry and subconsciously wrapped her arms around his neck. He sat on the straw and held her in his arms.

"Men like to save face. Madam, please indulge me and let me take care of you more outside, so that I can leave a good reputation as a good husband."

What reputation does he want?

The straw in the cell was damp. It was ok to sit there while everyone was awake during the day, but at night when it got quiet, there were countless insects and ants crawling around. He just thought the place was dirty and his body was dirty.

It was dark in the cell, and even if we sat opposite each other, it was difficult to see each other clearly.

Shen Yangui did not force his way away. He smiled and slid his hand into his collar, but Mo Chengying grabbed his hand.

He whispered, "Madam is not well behaved."

The cell was very small, and except for Shen Yangui, all the other prisoners were men. Starting from her low cry, the prisoners, who were already sleeping restlessly, became even more alert.

They all pretended to be asleep, watching with squinted eyes and listening with pricked ears.

"It's a long, lonely night, and I can't go out, but my husband won't let me have fun on my own?"

Shen Yangui was concerned about his injury and washed and changed the medicine once during the day, but he later fought with someone and was afraid that the wound would split.

But you can't tell others about your injury easily.

"What's the fun? This place is so dirty, what else can we do?"

doing what?

Have fun, do something.

Everyone's mind simultaneously thought of a more profound dynamic picture, and their throats couldn't help but roll.

The sounds of multiple inhalations in the cell converged together, too much in unison, and they began to cough guiltily, pretending to turn over and move, saying, "It's after the Mid-Autumn Festival, and it's so cold at night, cough cough."

Shen Yangui understood what Mo Chengying meant. The current condition was indeed not suitable for changing the dressing, but he still had to know the extent of his injuries. If there were any accidents later, he would know whether he could let him take action.

"Let me touch it and put my heart at ease."

This, this, this woman is so bold!

As expected, she is a woman who dares to impersonate the Regent’s princess.

The nights in early autumn are suddenly no longer cold, and even inexplicably warmer.

It looked like someone had set a fire around.

"on fire!"

The sage said: Do not look at what is not proper, and do not listen to what is not proper.

Qi Xiuyuan was a scholar. Just seeing Mo Chengying sitting down with Shen Yangui in her arms made his face turn red. He didn't dare to listen or watch any more.

Although he was sitting, his eyes were covered by his hair, but he couldn't compare, so he had to find another place to stay.

High on the prison wall, there was a palm-sized window that was all red.

He stood up, pointed at the small window and shouted, "There's a fire outside!"

The prisoners no longer pretended to be asleep. They all stood up and stood on tiptoe to look outside.

There was a blaze of fire outside, and the heat was coming in through the window. It was slightly warm, which meant it wasn't that close.

Shen Yangui sat in her husband's arms for a while and had no intention of getting up.

Qi Xiuyuan glanced at the two of them and was about to say something to them, why were they still being so affectionate at this time, but suddenly he understood.

"Did you expect that?"

Although these words were incoherent, Shen Yangui and Mo Chengying both understood them.

"The boy is quite smart."

Qi Xiuyuan also forgot what the saint said and sat directly in front of the two people, "It's you, right? The one who delivered the meal this afternoon, he is your man!"

He became a little excited as he thought about it, "Did you set the fire?"

"What do you mean by you guys?" Shen Yangui raised his hand to support Mo Chengying's face behind him, "Prince!" He patted himself again, "Princess!"

"Don't even mention the regent and princess. As long as you kill the Lingzhou official, you will be the emperor of Daxia! The real master of the people of Lingzhou!"

Mo Chengying was very satisfied with this.

"But this fire was not set by us."

"The prince and princess sent people to set the fire to rescue us, right? You didn't set it? Then this is..." Qi Xiuyuan's smooth train of thought suddenly came to a halt, "The government can't wait and wants to burn us to death?"

People who were ready to die during the day are now afraid.

Yes, people only know whether they have lived enough in this life until they are about to die.

Shen Yangui had nothing else to do, so he patiently asked, "Besides burning people to death, what else can this fire do?"

What else can I do?

Qi Xiuyuan pondered, "Burn down the house?"

The fire had been discovered in the prison, but there were no footsteps outside, and no one even rang the gong to sound the alarm.

It's hard to believe that this was an accident.

"Are the houses the only ones burned?" Shen Yangui asked, "The fire was set by humans, and the bodies were destroyed—"

Qi Xiuyuan naturally took over the conversation, "Eliminate the traces?"

Not too stupid.

Shen Yangui continued, "You don't know it in prison, but the news has spread all over the city today. The Regent will enter the city tomorrow."

Qi Xiuyuan suddenly realized, "The dog official is worried that the matter will be exposed, so he wants to destroy the old case files and old accounts of Lingzhou Yamen!"

If Shen Yangui's guess was correct, tonight there must have been a good official in Lingzhou who loved the people like his own children. While checking files at night, he accidentally knocked over an oil lamp, igniting the wooden rack of the files. The yamen caught fire, the case files were destroyed, and the good official unfortunately died in the fire.

The fire continued to burn until dawn before being discovered. The filing room was connected to the accounting office, so naturally it was not spared.

A fire burns away all the old debts, sacrificing one person to save everyone.

Qi Xiuyuan trembled and said, "Are you really the prince and princess?"

The prisoners watching the fire all looked over.

The fire outside shone in, and the cell became slightly brighter, and the figures became much clearer.

Shen Yangui was surrounded by people and felt embarrassed to continue sitting on Mo Chengying's lap.

She stood up and straightened her clothes. "I said before that the Regent has never been to Lingzhou. The prince and I came here to investigate the truth of Lingzhou and to make decisions for the people."

"I know you have doubts in your hearts, but please think about it. If the regent is really so licentious and incompetent, how could he stay in Kishu, where the plague is raging, for a year?"

Ordinary people may not care about the change of imperial power, and they don’t care who becomes the emperor, but the plague concerns themselves, so the news will grow wings and fly to thousands of households.

When the people of Lingzhou heard about it, they only hoped that the God of Plague would open his eyes and let the Regent be infected with the plague and die sooner. They never thought that his treatment of the plague was an act of love for the people.

"Are you really the distinguished guests from the capital?"

"Is it really the Regent and Princess?"

At this moment they were not sure that the people in front of them were the Regent and the Princess, but they sincerely hoped that this was the case.

The skinny old man knelt down, his hands hanging in the air, crying and pleading:

"My Lord, my Princess, please save us. We have been honest farmers for generations. We don't want to be thieves or bandits. We just want to guard our three acres of land and live an honest life. But the government won't give us a way out."

Another young farmer knelt down and said in a rough voice, "The dog head wanted to take my sister-in-law by force. My brother tried to stop him and was beaten to death. My sister-in-law didn't want to be humiliated and jumped into the well on the spot. I came to the government office to ask for an explanation, but was accused of causing trouble and was beaten with thirty boards. They also searched my banknotes and accused me of stealing property and threw me into prison."

Many people complained about their grievances one after another.

As Qi Xiuyuan said before, the perpetrators are all at large, while the victims are imprisoned.

"You can read, right?" Shen Yangui looked at Qi Xiuyuan.

Qi Xiuyuan clasped his hands together and said respectfully, "In reply to your Majesty and Princess, I am a humble person who has studied for a few years and am willing to serve you."

"After you get out tomorrow, write down all the grievances of everyone in black and white. These will become evidence in court, and you will become the most powerful witnesses to seek justice for yourselves."

Everyone looked at each other, shook hands, and cried with joy:

——"I don't have to die?"

——"Can I get justice?"

"That bastard official stole my family's fertile land, can we get it back?", "And my family's money", "My sister"...

Shen Yangui's voice was sonorous and his tone was firm: "Yes! I can do it!"

Everyone was still worried after receiving the princess' promise, and their eyes fell on the regent.

The pen of history is in the hands of men, this is the era of men.

They need a ruler of a country, a head of a family, a man who can make the final decision.

If Mo Chengying had any selfish motives and was vague about his words, saying "husband and wife are of the same mind, what the princess said is what I mean", then Shen Yangui would have no share in all the merits of Lingzhou, including Jizhou's established merits in epidemic control and all the love of the people.

She would leave a good reputation of being virtuous and gentle in history books, but she would only be called Princess Mo Shen, without even a proper name.

But Mo Chengying didn't do that.

In the past, he didn't even have the patience to clean up the dirty water for himself. Today, in prison, he told everyone about Shen Yangui's deeds word for word, and even secretly blamed his wife for his own actions. Over and over again, he never tired of praising his wife's benevolence and righteousness.

"Only those who are wholeheartedly devoted to the people can truly become the ruler of all people. My wife, you are the pride of heaven. Your words are as good as gold, and I will follow you."

Most ordinary people cannot understand the profound meaning of this.

Qi Xiuyuan, however, was terrified and even a little scared after hearing this.

That genius had extraordinary intentions, and the Lord of All Peoples was even more straightforward. Could it be that the prince wanted to send the princess away... Qi Xiuyuan clenched his fists and didn't dare to think any further.

"But... the princess and the prince have been arrested and thrown into prison. How are they going to meet that official tomorrow morning?"

Qi Xiuyuan's words awakened everyone, and everyone looked at the Regent and his wife again.

The young farmer glanced outside the cage and said in a low voice, unable to conceal his excitement:

"Are you going to break the prison tonight?"
