Tragic death and rebirth, married to the abstinent uncle and was spoiled crazy
Chapter 100 Whipping Fang Buping
In the hall, it was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
After a long while, His Majesty suddenly laughed out loud, "I didn't know before that my son is such a lovesick man."
Pei Yanli couldn't help but feel a little flustered when he heard this. After all, as a prince, the last thing he should do is to be stopped by his children's personal affairs.
Who would have thought that His Majesty would burst into laughter and say, "Yan Li resembles me, even his infatuation is the same as mine."
Pei Yanli then breathed a sigh of relief. He had seen the emperor's methods in his previous life. Even after his death, he still had all of them in his hands.
It can be said that if it weren’t for Your Majesty, he would never have been able to sit on the throne so securely in his previous life.
But he also saw his cruelty.
As expected, the next moment, His Majesty's eyes flashed, and he said, "Since you said that this matter was arranged by someone, then I will give you five days. If you still can't find out who did it after five days, your marriage will be cancelled."
Pei Yanli frowned slightly. He had already checked with Abbot Tianquan, but found nothing. He was not sure he could find the person behind this.
"I will give you one more chance. If the marriage is over, this matter will also be over. As the crown prince, if you can't even find out such a small matter, there is no need for you to continue to stay in this position."
After a pause, His Majesty's voice suddenly became soft, "Yan Li, do you think what I said makes sense?"
His Majesty threw this question to Pei Yanli again.
At this time he still had room for choice. Pei Yanli knew that this was the last chance given to him by His Majesty, but choosing Lin Tingwan would be his lifelong choice.
Pei Yanli finally nodded firmly, "Thank you, father. Within five days, I will definitely find the person behind the scenes—"
"Good!" There was admiration in His Majesty's eyes.
……
It was pitch black outside the cell, with only a faint light coming through the crack in the door, illuminating the bloodstains on the ground.
When I pushed open the door, a foul odor hit my nose, and I also heard painful groans and the sound of handcuffs colliding.
When Fang Buping heard the sound of the door opening, his body trembled suddenly and became extremely stiff.
The candles in the room were lit, and Fang Buping finally saw who was coming. His voice was a little hoarse, "Zhou Thief Cao——"
Zhou Zeicao patted his robe as if he was patting something dirty, "It's me."
Fang Buping was tied to a thick wooden stake, his body covered with scars from being whipped with various torture instruments, and the air was filled with the smell of burnt flesh.
"Why do you treat me like this? I've already told you that I was hanging out with the servants from the Lin Mansion that day. If Lord Zhou doesn't believe me, you can go find someone to confront him." Fang Buping sounded extremely weak when he said this, as if he would faint at any moment.
Zhou Zecao, however, remained unmoved from beginning to end. "Think carefully about whether you have offended anyone recently."
Fang Buping stared at Zhou Zeicao in a daze. He was just playing around with those women and he would give them a large sum of money every time. Naturally, it couldn't be those people.
recently……
A figure emerged in Fang Buping's mind.
That was Lin Tingwan. Song Yingyue had been provoking him openly and secretly for so many years, but no one had ever come to settle the score with him. So that person could only be Lin Tingwan.
Fang Buping's eyes widened instantly and he looked Zhou Zeicao up and down. He is almost forty years old now, and he never thought that Lin Tingwan's taste would be so strong.
"Master Zhou, I am guilty of this. I really didn't know that it was you, Master, who was with my cousin that day. If I had known earlier, I would never have dared to say those words."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Zeicao's eyes widened instantly.
The meaning of this sentence was so profound that he wanted to continue asking, but when he thought about it, he finally suppressed his curiosity.
Who that person is is none of your business. All you have to do is control your mouth!
After saying that, Zhou Zeicao picked up the long whip from the shelf beside him and started waving it at Fang Buping.
Heart-wrenching screams erupted throughout the cell.
"Master Zhou! I will never dare to do it again - I beg Master Zhou to forgive me this time -"
There was a pungent smell in the cell, but Zhou Zeicao felt excited by it.
……
After taking a sip, Lin Tingwan's eyes widened instantly and he nodded, "As expected of Prince Gong, he is really generous. It's just an ordinary cup of chrysanthemum tea, but it's so fragrant."
Pei Jinan smiled and said, "If you like it, I'll send some to you someday."
Lin Tingwan shook his head solemnly upon hearing this. "The fire in the warehouse in the mansion has now aroused suspicion from all parties. It is better for you and I to keep our distance for the next few days and not get involved again."
Pei Jinan raised his eyebrows and took a sip of tea, but said nothing.
"I believe His Royal Highness the Prince does not want people to know that the Resurrection Powder is in your hands." After saying this, Lin Tingwan frowned with a complicated expression and said, "This medicine caused a great uproar as soon as it was released. If that group of people knew its whereabouts, who knows what kind of bloody storm would be set off."
But it’s strange. If this medicine is so precious, why had she never heard of it in her previous life? It’s as if it didn’t exist.
Pei Jinan nodded, "Recently I found out that someone is investigating Abbot Tianquan."
Hearing this, Lin Tingwan's expression instantly became serious. Abbot Tianquan was the one who predicted her fortune. If they insisted on telling the truth about this matter, it would be a crime of deceiving the emperor, which is a capital crime.
Lin Tingwan had never intended to drag innocent people into this.
Pei Jinan raised the corner of his lips slightly and said, "Don't worry, I will handle this matter, and no one will know who is behind this."
"Thank you, Prince Gong." Lin Tingwan said with gratitude.
Pei Jinan smiled but said nothing, and silence fell between the two of them.
"Cousin - Sister Lin -" He Nian ran over with a few beautiful butterflies in his hands, followed by Qingyu and Qingli slowly.
Pei Jinan was startled by her posture. He quickly stood up, stepped forward and caught He Nian. "Why are you running so fast? Be careful not to fall." After that, he reached out and smoothed He Nian's hair.
Lin Tingwan watched in a daze from the side. Pei Jinan would definitely be a good father in the future.
"I picked these for Sister Lin." He Nian proudly held up a handful of chrysanthemums in his hand.
If Tuanzi was still alive in her previous life, she would also act like a spoiled child in her arms like this -
Lin Tingwan looked at it, feeling very sad. Her eyes curved like crescent moons. She took the flower handed over by He Nian, put it under her nose and smelled it, saying, "It looks beautiful, and it has a faint fragrance. Thank you, Nian Nian."
