Xu cursed viciously: "You old bastard, you are so frivolous, you old whore, you deserve to be guillotined!"

Fang was not willing to be outdone. Over the years, the supplements that Li Huaiying gave her made her body very strong.

"At least, my son didn't push me into the fire pit! He didn't use me, his own mother, as a shield. Xu, you have lived for decades in vain, and raised this son in vain!"

Xu was so angry that her mouth twisted: "You are not alone on the road to the underworld, you have the nine clans of the Lei family to accompany you!"

Fang's heart was beating with pain.

Snap, a whip came in: "Do you want to die now? Don't you want to wait for another half a month?"

The jailer yelled, and then the second whip came.

The two of them immediately let go of each other's hair because of the pain.

The arms and back were covered in bruises.

……

In Qinglan Courtyard, Li Shuangwan was looking at the accounts for the reconstruction of Yanxue Pavilion.

Of the ten shops, five have been renovated.

Gu Xingyan was playing with Li Shuangwan's jewelry out of boredom.

This one is too plain, this one is too bright.

That tassel is too long, and that one isn't precious enough.

Forget it, I’ll ask Lin Musen to send more tomorrow.

Hong Shuang came over to add tea for the two of them and whispered, "Master, Princess, this morning, Li Yuanming was found hanged in the prison of Jingzhao Prefecture."

Li Shuangwan looked up and asked, "Hanged? What did Jingzhao Prefecture say?"

"He committed suicide out of fear of crime. The case has been closed."

Li Shuangwan was surprised: "So fast?"

So sloppy!

She didn't believe that Li Yuanming would hang himself in prison. When she went to see him that day, the fear in his eyes at first was not fake.

People like Li Yuanming are most afraid of death, so how could he possibly commit suicide?

"Yes, there were no signs of any struggle or resistance in the prison. On the surface, Li Yuanming untied his belt and hung himself on the beam of the prison. When the jailer found him, he had been dead for two hours."

Li Shuangwan bent his head to look at Gu Xingyan: "What do you think?"

The man looked indifferent, as if the hairpin he was playing with was more interesting to him than Li Yuanming's death: "Ling Heng killed him."

"But Jingzhao Prefecture is Ling Yan's territory."

"It's not difficult to bribe one or two jailers. There are still more than ten days until autumn. Li Yuanming knows a lot about Ling Heng. How can Ling Heng feel at ease?"

"He either rescues Li Yuanming or kills him."

"And obviously, killing him is much easier than saving him."

Li Shuangwan thought about something and asked, "Where is Gu Xinglang?"

"He's at the post house. He can't go out for the next two days."

"I heard that Ling Heng threatened Luo Luo yesterday and wanted to force her to enter the East Palace as a concubine?"

Gu Xingyan snorted coldly: "It's just because Yang Luo has good medical skills and can take care of Chun Ning for him and work hard for him."

Li Shuangwan felt extremely sick and shook the account book in his hand: "Not only that, the People's Hospital is doing very well now, and Luo Luo is already thinking about opening a few more branches."

"If Luo Luo becomes his concubine, she can also earn money for him. What Ling Heng lacks most now is money."

Looking at the man next to me, luckily he left in time.

If Xingyan had gone half an hour later.

Gu Xinglang would either be thrown into a dark room, where his life would not be in danger but he would inevitably suffer physical pain.

Otherwise, Lolo would have to agree to be his concubine.

This person is so awful.

Just thinking about it makes me want to pick up a knife and chop him into pieces right now.

Gu Xingyan picked up the pen that Li Shuangwan had placed aside, scribbled a few lines on the paper, and handed it to Mo Lin.

"Tell Lin Musen to send someone to deliver it to the post house tomorrow."

Mo Lin took it and almost dropped his eyes after just one glance: "Master..."

With so many, can the princess carry them all?

Is the master so unscrupulous in pursuing his wife? This is too cruel.

"Have him deliver it as I wrote above."

"Yes."

Mo Lin mourned for his wallet. He felt that with the money he had, he would never be able to afford a wife in his lifetime.

Li Shuangwan was not aware of the conversation between the master and servant, as she had already sorted out the accounts on hand.

Talking to Hong Shuang.

"In a few days, Miss Hu and Lu Dongqing will be getting married. Please help me get the red coral from the storehouse."

Hongshuang was stunned. The red coral was very large and expensive. What was even more rare was its exquisite workmanship. It was a bit too expensive to give as a gift.

He called the two servants who were sweeping the yard, and went together to move it out of the storehouse and put it in the yard.

There was some dust on the coral.

Hongshuang fetched some warm water and wiped it carefully bit by bit with a towel.

After Mo Lin went out and asked his younger brother to deliver the list to Lin Musen, he turned back.

Seeing Hong Shuang circling around a tree, he walked over curiously and asked, "Sister Hong Shuang, where did this tree come from?"

Hong Shuang rolled her eyes at him and said, "This is coral."

"Corals aren't trees? Aren't they just trees on the bottom of the sea?"

"as long as you are happy."

Mo Lin circled around the red coral, liking it more and more. "How about, Sister Hongshuang, you give me this tree. It's quite pretty, such a big red tree. There's no use for you to keep it. I can also put it in my bedroom, it can be used as a clothes rack."

The corners of Hong Shuang's mouth twitched, and she glanced at the crimson guard uniform with dark gold patterns on him: "As long as you are happy."

Mo Lin pursed his lips: "Stingy."

Li Shuangwan burst out laughing and told the maid beside her: "Go, have someone fetch the ebony carved and embroidered screen from the storeroom and send it to Mo Lin's room to hang his clothes."

The maid also smiled and replied crisply, "Yes."

Li Shuangwan casually picked up something that Hongshuang had placed beside him early in the morning and looked at it carefully.

The sixth day of next month is the wedding day of Roman and Liu Er, Yizhu and Chen Ping.

After they discussed it, they decided to release it on the same day.

About ten days left.

Chen Rong came over with a plate of snacks. "Princess, His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince, I have just made some golden thread date paste cakes. Please try them."

Li Shuangwan picked up a piece and stuffed it into Gu Xingyan's mouth first, then he took a piece for himself and put it in his mouth. He immediately felt the fragrance in his mouth and it was so delicious that his eyes narrowed.

"Mm, not bad, it melts in your mouth and tastes delicious. Ah Rong, your cooking skills are getting better and better now."

Chen Rong blushed slightly: "As long as the princess likes it, it's good. There's more over there. I'll go get some more."

Seeing that the two masters looked like they were enjoying themselves, Mo Lin swallowed his saliva and said, "Well, Miss Chen Rong, do you have any leftovers that have gone bad? I, I want to try a few bites too."

Seeing him looking at her eagerly, Chen Rong blushed and whispered, "I've saved it for you. It's in the kitchen."

Mo Lin followed Chen Rong happily.

After wiping the red coral, Hongshuang looked up and saw Chen Ping waiting outside anxiously.

"Princess, Chen Ping is here."

"Let him in."
