Chapter 66 Marquis of Wu'an

Ruotong is fine, although martial arts is good, but it is only limited to one person hitting ten people, no more.

But Wuzhu...

What made His Majesty confer her the title of General Zhaowu did not depend on her family background, but her actual military achievements.

In addition to her strong martial arts, she is also stronger than ordinary people.

The crumbling door, Wei Shengsi guessed that it was caused by Wu Zhu's whip.

Weisheng quickly got off his horse and walked straight inside.

However, the strange thing was that when he walked from the door to the lobby, he didn't find anyone.

Still walking into the hall, I suddenly heard some voices coming from the garden.

……

Gu Ruzhen looked coldly at Zhou Dingli who was tightly bound and thrown on the ground, and asked, "What is the ins and outs of the Zuixiaolou incident?"

Limp on the ground next to her, Mrs. Wu'anhou, who wanted to go forward several times but was frightened by the whip in Wu Zhu's hand, hurriedly said, "Madam, this must be a misunderstanding. Ding'er was spoiled by his wife since he was a child, so he didn't know how to offend him." Brother Ling, please forgive Ding'er this time, Your Majesty."

"Misunderstanding, since it is a misunderstanding, why did the people from the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion use lynching in the prison of Shuntian Mansion?"

"I don't know that the young man is the mother's brother, I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding..."

Gu Ruzhen stretched out her hand towards Wu Zhu, "Give me the whip."

After a while, the blood on the whip had turned dark brown. Gu Ruzhen glanced at it, and with force between her wrists, the whip in her hand fell on Zhou Dingli's body.

As soon as the whip went down, as Zhou Dingli howled, Mrs. Wu Anhou knelt down on the ground tearfully.

"The courtier's wife is willing to accept the punishment for the evil son. No matter how bad it is, Lord Hou will follow His Majesty to fight in all directions. I also ask the empress to forgive Dinger for the sake of these feelings."

Looking at the madam who was crying not far away, Gu Ruzhen asked blankly, "Madam Zhou, I only whipped one whip, and you feel so uncomfortable. How many whips did the people from the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion whip my brother? Wouldn't I feel uncomfortable?"

"If Gu Yuyan was not my younger brother, but an ordinary person, would he be killed by Zhou Dingli's orders? The life of the Marquis of Wu'an is a life, and the life of others is not a life?"

Before Mrs. Wu Anhou could think of a word to respond, Gu Ruzhen continued to give Zhou Dingli twenty lashes to Zhou Dingli who was lying on the ground and trying to struggle.

After the hit, Zhou Dingli couldn't bear the pain and passed out directly.

Gu Ruzhen took the salt water from Ruotong and sprinkled it on his body, Zhou Dingli's body bounced up quickly, and the howling sound was heard by Wei Shengsi in the hall.

Wei Sheng pressed the center of his eyebrows with his hands, only thinking that the scene he was going to see next was not what he would want to see.

He wasn't worried about Madam Gu, besides Ruotong and Wu Zhu, His Majesty had arranged for her to be surrounded by other people to protect her.

The Marquis of Wu'an was already dissatisfied with the will of the Empress Dowager, and his temper was smelly and irritable, so he couldn't blow it up this time.

"Yes, it was me who was interested in Jin Yuelong... I was interested in her, Gu Yuyan saw it and wanted to stop it, that's it... I said it all, don't, don't hit me."

Zhou Dingli curled up into a ball, his heavy cotton clothes in winter were torn apart by the whip, blood stained the floating cotton wool, staining the cotton wool red.

Seeing this scene, Mrs. Wu Anhou rolled her eyes and fainted on the ground, and only woke up among those who were surrounded by maids who pinched her cruelly.

As soon as she woke up, she sat on the ground paralyzed, crying while shaking her handkerchief, and howling with sobs, "My lord, you have spent most of your life fighting for Tianqin and His Majesty, and now you have only been out for half a day before being broken into." Entering the house, and labeling Ding'er like this, what should I do!"

Gu Ruzhen sat on the wooden chair brought by the court lady, holding a cup of tea in her hand, she lowered her eyes casually, without any intention of looking here.

Apart from the cries of the mother and son, there was no other sound around, so Madam Wu Anhou's words seemed extremely embarrassing.

When Wei Shengsi walked in, he heard Mrs. Marquis Wu'an's words, and couldn't help frowning slightly.

He only glanced at the ground lightly, and he understood everything that just happened.

Zhou Dingli's injuries are not that important, they look serious but are actually just skin traumas, it seems that Gu Niangniang restrained her anger.

If it were him, his family members would be beaten up and wronged for doing something good and tossed like that, he would never forgive him so easily, Gu Niangniang is really gentle, completely different from the temperament of Gu Yanyan in Cui Shao's mouth.

If he could predict what would happen in the future, Wei Shengsi would definitely eat this sentence back word by word.

"What is the soldering iron in the cell used for?"

Rao Zhou Dingli was throbbing like a drowning chicken because of the pain, and his body froze for a moment.

Although for a moment, Gu Ruzhen noticed it.

She got up and pulled out the long sword hanging from the guard's waist behind her with her backhand. The sharp blade reached Zhou Dingli's neck, making him dare not move.

Zhou Dingli's fine white skin was immediately covered with a trace of blood, his eyes were about to pop out of fear, and he stammered and kept calling his mother.

Obviously, Mrs. Zhou, who was stopped by the guards, could not save him.

Even Mrs. Zhou's crying was too loud, which made Gu Ruzhen feel even more impatient, and her arms were pressed down heavily.

"I said, I said... I originally wanted to brand him on the face, that's all, I really didn't intend to kill him."

"Brand a mark, and that's all?"

The word on the branding iron is "slave". Whether in Qingxuan or Tianqin, such punishment is extremely severe, heavier than losing one's life.

If you lose your life, it's over, but the words on the brand will follow you for the rest of your life, and you can only stay in a corner where no one can see you forever, hiding there forever.

Gu Ruzhen moved the long sword, and the sharp point of the sword was raised slowly. During the movement, the hair near Zhou Dingli's ear was cut off by the long sword, which made him tremble with fright, and he couldn't even utter a word of begging for mercy.

"Don't worry, I won't tattoo your face, this kind of punishment is too light for you." The long sword in Gu Ruzhen's hand moved down slowly, and finally stopped at the man's ankle.

At this moment, Zhu Ri who was biting a branch in the corner, bored, suddenly snorted and let out a long cry.

Seeing this, Wei Sheng hastily unfolded the folding fan in his hand, exerted force on his wrist, the sharp knife inside the folding fan pierced through the air, shot down the sleeve arrow coming from behind, and turned to look behind vigilantly.

When he saw the person coming, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and said coldly, "Marquis Wu An, are you going to rebel?"

Marquis of Wu'an Zhou Yi clasped his fists and half knelt down, "I am just eager to save my son, and I don't want to hurt my mother in a moment of urgency."
