"Chen Yunniang got pregnant with his child, and she asked me to protect her pregnancy, but I refused..."

She deliberately made her words ambiguous, and the prince's eyes suddenly widened: "Chen Yunniang is pregnant with my cousin's child?"

"He also asked you to protect Chen Yunniang's pregnancy?"

"Is that why he beat you?"

"It's too much, it's totally unreasonable."

"Why does my cousin seem like a different person the moment he meets Chen Yunniang?"

Su Yujiao knelt down again and said, "Please, Prince, send someone to escort me away. I don't want to stay and continue to be humiliated by Chen Yunniang, nor do I want to endure his ruthlessness."

"If the prince doesn't agree to my request, I will die here today."

She pulled out her hairpin and threatened to commit suicide.

The prince hurriedly stopped her, "Cousin, don't be impulsive. I'll just promise you."

"Thank you, Prince."

When Su Yujiao stood up, the prince asked tentatively, "Are you going back this time to use your merits to obtain the imperial decree for a divorce?"

Su Yujiao looked at the prince and asked, "Can I tell the truth to the prince?"

The prince touched his nose awkwardly. He knew that what he did last time was not right.

"No matter what decision my cousin makes, I will not stop her."

"I didn't tell my cousin that you developed the gunpowder because I felt guilty towards you."

"He only knows now that you used your contribution to curing malaria to buy Brother Su's freedom."

"So, if my cousin's wife really wants a divorce, she should get the imperial decree before he returns to the capital, otherwise, more trouble will arise."

Su Yujiao bowed solemnly and thanked him: "Thank you, Your Highness."

"You don't have to thank me, cousin. I owe you this."

"Come here, send a team to escort Madam Lu back to the capital."

"Yes."

Su Yujiao left the military camp overnight and rode to the capital at full speed.

As for Lu Ziqian, he had not yet asked what Chen Yunniang had done, and he did not believe a single word she said.

If it was really as simple as she said, just a bug bite, why would she be so scared?

Lu Ziqian captured Xiaohe and Yunlan, and after a round of severe torture, he finally knew the whole story.

He even stung the two men's fingers with poisonous bees. Seeing them in excruciating pain, their faces twisted, and biting their tongues to commit suicide, he finally understood what Su Yujiao had just been through!

Lu Ziqian's mind went blank and he could barely stand. He never imagined that she had endured such inhuman torture during the two hours he was away.

boom!

The man was furious and smashed Chen Yunniang's tent to pieces. He grabbed her neck viciously. His bloodthirsty face was gloomy and terrifying, and his eyes were bloodshot.

Chen Yunniang's eyeballs bulged out from being pinched, and she struggled and hit the ground repeatedly.

"If I die...she won't be able to live!"

These words seemed to bring back his out-of-control sanity, and the man suddenly let go of his hand.

I saw a purple wound on Chen Yunniang's neck.

She gasped for breath, her tone mocking and crazy: "Why are you pretending to be affectionate? Didn't you leave her with me yourself?"

"Don't you know that I won't let her have an easy time if she stays here?"

"You deliberately left her behind for me to torture, and now you're calling me vicious?"

"You are the most vicious person, selfish, ruthless and violent..."

"Hahaha... She will never forgive you. From the moment you left her behind, there is no possibility between you two."

"Hahaha……"

Lu Ziqian stumbled back to the room but found that Su Yujiao was gone.

"What about people?"

"The young lady went to the prince's tent and hasn't come out yet."

"Prince?"

Lu Ziqian suddenly had a bad feeling. Why did she go to see the prince in the middle of the night?

As soon as the prince fell asleep, Lu Ziqian rushed in: "Where is she?"

The prince looked at his anxious expression and didn't give him a good look.

"I sent someone to escort my cousin's wife back. She said she didn't want to stay and continue to be tortured by Chen Yunniang."

"How could you let her go?"

The prince sarcastically said, "If we don't let her go, will we let her stay and continue to protect Chen Yunniang's pregnancy?"

"Continue to be tortured by a bitch and beaten by your husband?"

"Cousin, we are all made of flesh and blood. You've really gone too far this time."

"I didn't hit her. How could I bear to hit her?"

"But you forced her to protect Chen Yunniang's pregnancy. You are destroying her heart."

"You always think you can protect your cousin's wife, but where were you when she was being tortured?"

"Cousin, let's just let it go. Do you really want to wait until the day you torture someone to death before you regret it?"

Lu Ziqian raised his head suddenly: "Let go?"

"What do you mean? Did she say anything to you?"

"Is she going to divorce me?"

"How could she just walk away? I haven't explained to her yet. Things are not what she thought..."

"I didn't want to leave her there to be humiliated. I wanted to stay with her, but you called me away..."

The prince's face darkened: "Cousin, are you blaming me?"

Lu Ziqian scratched his head in annoyance: "Which route did they take?"

"How many people did you send?"

The prince shook his head: "I don't know. I only sent people to escort my cousin's wife back. I didn't specify the route for them. They may take the official road or the side road."

Lu Ziqian turned around and tried to leave, but was grabbed by the prince.

"Cousin, you can't leave. Are you going to leave these hundreds of thousands of troops alone?"

"Leaving one's post without permission is a capital offense."

"Someone, stop him!"

The prince's secret guards surrounded the people. Mo Shu and Mo Hua saw that something was wrong and rushed over immediately.

Lu Ziqian knew that he could not escape, so he ordered Mo Shu and Mo Hua to split up and chase after them.

After catching her, she was safely escorted back to Beijing, but someone had to be assigned to monitor her to prevent her from doing anything stupid, let alone encouraging her mother to go to the yamen to get a divorce.

"Yes."

The prince was relieved when he saw that he had sent people to chase after him.

I hope my cousin’s wife can succeed this time!

It has not been easy for my cousin's wife along the way.

After Su Yujiao left, Chen Yunniang stopped acting like a troublemaker, and since she had nothing to do, she stayed in bed every day to rest and take care of her pregnancy.

Lu Ziqian went to meet up with the King of the City and personally handled the aftermath and handover work.

The sooner I finish my work, the sooner I can return to Beijing to explain to her.

He also realized the seriousness of the matter and was afraid that if he didn't explain it clearly, it would not end well.

As for his face and dignity, that was all bullshit, as long as she could forgive him.

"My dear nephew, why are you here? Why aren't you with your wife in the barracks?"

Lu Ziqian smiled bitterly: "She returned to Beijing."

The City King nodded and said, "It's better to go back. The military camp is cold and bitter, it's not a place for a woman to stay."

“It’s too painful.”

"But your young lady is not an ordinary woman. Besides Divine Doctor Mo, she is the second woman I admire most."

"Not only are their medical skills superb, but even their weaponry is incredibly advanced."

Lu Ziqian frowned: "She developed weapons?"

The City King looked at Lu Ziqian's confused expression and asked in confusion: "Huopowder, didn't she tell you?"

Lu Ziqian's pupils suddenly contracted and his face turned pale as paper in an instant.

Did she develop gunpowder?

Why did she deliberately not say it?
