I just want to rob you of your luck

Lin Jiuer calculated the time in her mind and felt that it was about time. At this time, two old women came over, grabbed Lin Jiuer's arms on the left and right, and were about to drag her out.

Lin Jiuer knelt down with a plop, and immediately cried for mercy: "Please spare my life, Madam, please spare my life! After these twenty strokes of the board, I will surely be half dead. How can I serve the prince?!"

Jiang Hai sneered: "Weren't you quite tough just now? I thought you were a man of integrity, but it turns out you are just a paper tiger. If you had known this earlier, wouldn't you have obeyed my wishes earlier?"

Xia Liu was still kneeling on the side, looking at Lin Jiuer coldly, always feeling that she was abnormal today.

Isn't the difference between the attitudes before and after so huge? Now you are afraid of the pain you are about to suffer? You deserve it!

After she finished with the Crown Prince today, the Crown Prince's wife brought someone in and gave her a bowl of infertility medicine.

She even had her maid slap her twenty times, but the prince didn't say a word to help her, which made her very disappointed.

Later she heard that it was Lin Jiuer who brought the Crown Prince's Consort here. She gnashed her teeth in hatred and now she wished that Lin Jiuer would suffer the same thing as her.

Jiang Hai continued, "Please beg me, and be nicer. If I am satisfied, I will plead for you and save you from the pain of the flesh."

Lin Jiuer glared at Jiang Hai: "Sir, do you know the saying that a gentleman can be killed but not humiliated? Even if I am beaten to death today, I will never bow my head and beg for mercy to a shameless person like you who wants to drug me!"

Jiang Hai was so angry that he rushed over and wanted to kick Lin Jiuer.

At this time, a tall black figure rushed over first and kicked Jiang Hai in the waist.

"You bastard, I fought for the glory with my blood and flesh outside, and now you are doing such a despicable thing? What kind of man is it to bully a woman? If you have the guts, go to the battlefield and kill the enemy!"

"Husband, why are you here? This is all a misunderstanding!"

When Zhou saw Jiang Cheng kicking her son three meters away, she quickly protected him.

Lin Jiuer was delighted to see Jiang Cheng, but her face was still tearful.

"My Lord, help me! The prince falsely accused me of trying to seduce him and give him aphrodisiac. Madam wanted to beat me with 20 sticks and then make me serve as the prince's maid. I refused, so the prince wanted to beat me! Please help me, my Lord!"

Jiang Cheng looked at Zhou with cold eyes: "What did I tell Madam last time? You probably forgot everything? Tomorrow I will find a nanny from the palace to teach you how to behave as a Marquis's wife!"

Zhou's body trembled, and she hurriedly tried to go to Jiang Cheng to beg for mercy, but was pushed away by Jiang Cheng.

"My Lord, you can't treat me like this. I've been married to you for more than 20 years, and I've given birth to your children. Even if I haven't done anything great, I've worked hard. How can you treat me like this? If this gets out, how can I live in Kyoto?"

"You also know that it's embarrassing to tell others about it? Didn't I give you a chance last time, but what did you do?

Don't think I don't care about the affairs of the mansion. I don't know about the dirty things you do. I think I should have found someone to teach you the rules a long time ago.

Otherwise, you really think you are some great person, bullying the servants all day long in the mansion!"

In the past, Jiang Cheng didn't have the time to take care of trivial matters in the mansion. Although he occasionally heard the marquis's wife punishing the servants, he just thought it was a normal thing.

It was not until Lin Jiuer appeared in front of him that he asked his confidant to inquire about it, and found out that Lin Jiuer was demoted to a maid just because she brought him some snacks once.

He felt that his wife had gone too far, but he had no intention of interfering in what was happening in the backyard.

As a result, he recently asked the guards to investigate the affairs of the mansion and found that every year there were several servants in the mansion who were beaten to death by the lady.

There were even cases where the servants' families took matters to the government.

These things were suppressed by Zhou using his name, and he was very angry.

He is well-known outside and is highly respected and trusted by the current emperor, but even so he is not without political enemies.

If these small things were discovered by others, they might be the fuse that caused His Majesty to be dissatisfied with him.

In addition, he discovered that his only son had been spoiled by Zhou and had become lawless, doing many ridiculous things outside.

He was even more furious.

Zhou was still unconvinced. She looked at Jiang Cheng with a wronged expression: "I know that the Marquis treated your wife like this just to protect this lowly maid!"

When the prince saw his mother being scolded by his father, he also became angry. He stiffened his neck and said, "Father, why did you destroy your relationship with mother for such a cheap thing?"

Jiang Cheng looked at Jiang Hai coldly: "And you, you bullied men and women outside and did so many absurd things, do you think I don't know? If I don't care, you and your son will not stop until our Dingyuan Marquis Mansion is confiscated and exterminated, right?"

"Jiang Hai, you must get to the barracks tomorrow to participate in training. When there is a war, I will send you to the battlefield for training. Stop staying at home and just hang around women. It is really embarrassing for me to say this."

Zhou Shi didn't bother to plead for herself when she heard this, and immediately begged, "My Lord, it's all my fault. Please punish me. I accept it. The military camp is so hard, how can my son endure the torture there?"

There was disappointment in Jiang Cheng's eyes when he looked at Zhou. They had been married for many years and had always respected each other.

Although Jiang Cheng didn't like Zhou, he accepted her because she was the candidate arranged by the elders in the family.

At the beginning, Zhou was quite virtuous. He treated her with great respect because she took care of the household chores and raised children for him.

But gradually she changed, she became competitive and no longer so gentle and kind. He had no common language with her and did not have much affection for her. Later he simply returned to the Marquis' Mansion and lived in the study.

I don't want to pretend to be a loving couple with her.

He knew that the lady doted on the prince, but he had never expected it to come to this point. The prince was already 22 years old and married, but he had not achieved anything and spent all his time eating, drinking and having fun with his bad friends.

If this continues, will the family business he worked so hard to earn with his blood and sweat be handed over to such a waste in the future?

"Don't beg for mercy on his behalf. I have made up my mind. He is the heir to the Marquisate. With his current condition, even if ten Marquisates were handed over to him, he would still be ruined. He must learn to stand up on his own feet."

Zhou still couldn't bear it: "Why is the Marquis so cruel to his own son? Are you going to torture us mother and son just for such a lowly maid?"

Jiang Cheng didn't look at Lin Jiuer, but Lin Jiuer saw that Jiang Cheng was also very angry about Zhou.

The veins on his forehead were bulging. He glared at Zhou and said, "From tomorrow on, the household affairs of the Marquis' Mansion will be handed over to Steward Tian. You should learn the rules well. Jiang Hai, get out of here and go to the military camp for training.

As for the slave girl you mentioned, I think if I don't protect her, she will be beaten to death by you, the mistress, sooner or later, right? Well, since you said I will protect her, then from now on she will come to my study to serve me, and she doesn't have to be a servant anymore!"

Lin Jiuer looked at Jiang Cheng in surprise, and saw him coming over, taking her arm and walking out of the house.
