Reborn to be replaced? Remarried to the royal palace, raising children and training husband
Chapter 221: Beating with a Military Stick
Fuqiu Garden is in an excellent location, right next to the main courtyard. Zheng Dinglian never expected that Gu Qinlan would be so generous as to be willing to use this elegant courtyard as the wedding venue for Wei Lin and Xu Yunxuan.
However, on second thought, Wei Lin had followed him in battles for many years, experiencing life and death, so such a reward was well deserved.
Wei Lin stood aside, his face full of gratitude, his cheeks flushed lightly with excitement, like cooked shrimps.
Lou Wei, who was watching this scene from the side, gently poked Wei Lin and whispered jokingly:
"Look, the princess is so good to you. She even arranged everything for you, even this important event in life, and gave you such a beautiful garden. And you even complained about the princess before!"
Upon hearing this, Wei Lin immediately glared at Lou Wei and said in a serious tone:
"Can't you let me be confused once in a while? You know I have poor eyesight? From now on, I will dedicate my life to the princess, isn't that enough?"
After hearing this, Lou Wei couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Then, he secretly glanced at Gu Qinlan and Zheng Dinglian. The two were sitting together, one basking in the sun, the other pounding herbs. The scene was peaceful and harmonious, giving people a beautiful feeling of quiet time.
At this moment, Jiang Boyi came angrily from a distance and shouted loudly, breaking the harmony:
"Gu Qinlan! I can't discipline those naughty kids anymore!"
The pestle in Gu Qinlan's hand paused for a moment, and she looked up at Jiang Boyi in surprise.
Jiang Boyi was holding two in each hand at this time, dragging Zheng Fenghui and the other naughty kids over together, and throwing them heavily in front of Gu Qinlan.
Several children stood in a row, looking at each other, but dared not make a sound.
Gu Qinlan was slightly stunned. After Xiang Zhu moved the herbs away, she poured a cup of tea and handed it to Jiang Boyi, smiling and asking:
"Calm down first and tell me slowly."
Jiang Boyi took the teacup, drank it all, and then complained to Gu Qinlan:
"I gave them homework yesterday, but these naughty kids didn't write a single word! What kind of attitude is this? Huh?"
"Why should they learn? Why not let them farm in the farm? At least they can have enough food and clothing. Why are they still thinking about studying? They might as well just go begging on the streets!"
After hearing this, Gu Qinlan glanced at the children, frowned slightly, and asked:
"Is that true?"
Zheng Fengyun and Zheng Huiyi looked at each other with awkward expressions and did not dare to speak.
Instead, Zheng Fenghui and Dou Qianqian knelt down without hesitation and said with sincere and serious expressions:
"I'm sorry, sir, mother, Feng Hui is willing to accept the punishment."
"Sir, Aunt Lan, Qianqian is willing too."
Seeing this, Zheng Fengyun and Zheng Huiyi also knelt down, gently pinched their ears, and said in unison with sad expressions:
"We were wrong!"
Jiang Boyi became even angrier when he heard this, and pointed at them and asked loudly:
"Accept the punishment? It's easy to accept the punishment, but tell me, why didn't you do your homework?"
The four children remained silent, their lips tightly pursed.
Zheng Dinglian sat aside, frowning and said in a cold tone:
"Disrespecting teachers and elders, is this your attitude? If so, each of you will be punished with twenty lashes, Captain Lou!"
"Master..." Lou Wei was stunned and glanced at Zheng Dinglian hesitantly.
That's a military stick!
After twenty beatings of the board, can these young masters still bear it?
Upon hearing this, the four little ones' faces turned pale as paper in an instant, but they remained surprisingly silent, without any sign of begging for mercy.
"Do it!"
"As ordered..."
When Wei Lou heard Zheng Dinglian's order, he dared not say anything more and stepped forward without hesitation.
Jiang Boyi was stunned when he saw this scene. A trace of concern and pity immediately flashed in his eyes. He quickly explained:
"How can you do that? How can a child withstand such a blow? Their skin is much more delicate than you think. It's not as rough and thick as yours."
Upon hearing this, Zheng Dinglian's gaze lingered on Jiang Boyi for a moment, but he did not become angry. Instead, he responded in a gentle tone:
"If you don't respect your elders and teachers, you should be punished. This is the house rule of Prince Duan's Mansion. I hope Mr. Jiang will understand."
This sentence actually implies that once Zheng Dinglian intervenes in the matter, he must be dealt with strictly, and even if Jiang Boyi wants to stop it, he will be powerless to do anything.
After hearing this, Jiang Boyi was filled with indignation. He turned to look at Gu Qinlan and pointed at Zheng Dinglian who was standing beside him and asked:
"Are you just going to sit back and do nothing?"
Seeing this, Gu Qinlan smiled and pulled Jiang Boyi aside to sit down. Then, he glanced at Zheng Dinglian meaningfully and said to Jiang Boyi leisurely:
"Prince Duan is right. If jade is not polished, it cannot be made into a useful object. Besides, didn't my cousin punish them before?"
Jiang Boyi was so aggressive just now, but now facing real fighting, he was the first one to feel distressed.
"How can I compare with this? The bamboo whip I used can only cause physical pain, but this military stick can take someone's life!" Jiang Boyi said excitedly. He knew that Gu Qinlan had no intention of interfering, so he turned to look at Zheng Fenghui and others, and urged them anxiously:
"You guys, tell me your reasons! As long as it's reasonable, I won't mind it too much!"
Obviously, Jiang Boyi wanted to give these kids a way out.
As long as they can give a reasonable explanation, he can defend them!
After all, Jiang Boyi had been teaching Zheng Fenghui and others for many days and knew their personalities very well.
Although they are naughty occasionally, they can always complete the homework he assigns on time.
Whether it was Zheng Fenghui or Zheng Fengyun, although they complained every day, they would honestly complete their homework every night, even though they would still be frowning the next day.
Therefore, Jiang Boyi firmly believed deep down that these children must have some hidden secrets that led to them not completing their homework.
However, he could not find out the truth no matter what, so he turned to Gu Qinlan for help. However, he did not expect that Zheng Dinglian was also present, and he threatened severe punishment as soon as he opened his mouth!
Jiang Boyi had already cursed Zheng Dinglian in his heart, believing that he was a rough man who only knew how to use force.
Zheng Fengyun was filled with gratitude when he saw Jiang Boyi was anxious and like an ant on the hot pan.
He wanted to speak, but seemed to remember something, and quickly shut up, suppressing the fear in his heart, and bravely said to Zheng Dinglian:
"Father! My sister is young and can't stand the blow. I am willing to bear the punishment for her."
Upon hearing this, Zheng Fenghui also looked at Dou Qianqian and said solemnly:
"Dou Qianqian is the son of the Minister of Revenue. It is inconvenient for your father to punish him. I am willing to bear the twenty military sticks for him."
Zheng Huiyi and Dou Qianqian were stunned when they heard this. They raised their eyes anxiously and looked at the two of them worriedly.
"How can this be possible?" Dou Qianqian said anxiously.
"No!" Zheng Huiyi echoed in a baby voice.
How could they be the only ones to bear the responsibility for the mistake they made together?
Zheng Dinglian raised his eyebrows slightly, and his eyes slowly swept over everyone. A spark of satisfaction flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure and said lightly:
"Row."
Zheng Dinglian's gaze turned slightly and fell on Lou Wei, and then he conveyed his intention with a subtle look.
