"Come here, tie up Lin Ting for me. Don't let her die so easily."

Pei Xuewen wanted to forcibly take Lin Ting away, but Lin Ting had Han Yian with him, so he was afraid that he would not succeed so easily.

Han Yian moved. She couldn't protect Sister Wen, but she was the one who brought Lin Ting here today, so no one could touch Lin Ting.

But before she could make a sound, Lin Ting grabbed her.

"I'll see who dares. This is a smoke poison in my hand. If you inhale even a little bit, you'll die instantly. If you're not afraid of death, come here."

It was not surprising that Lin Ting had some money and some self-defense items on her. Moreover, it was not surprising that she dared to come to Pei Mansion and bring poison after I sent people to arrest her today.

Seeing the two black balls in Lin Ting's hands, everyone present didn't dare to get close, for fear that Lin Ting would suddenly make a desperate move and kill everyone.

"Lin Ting, don't forget you have a family. Do you dare to attack me? I am an official appointed by the court."

Pei Xuewen's threat has no deterrent effect on Lin Ting. Today, between Lin Ting and the Pei Mansion, only one of them is destined to be safe.

"Can an imperial official arrest the people of Dongxia at will? You slandered Hua Yan and me, but without any evidence, I, Lin Ting, will not let you manipulate me."

Pei Xuewen has no direct evidence, but Lin Ting is still useful to the Seventh Prince, so we can't be too strict.

Today he only needs to find an excuse to put Lin Ting in jail. As for whether Hua Yan will really harm people, it depends on Lin Ting's next performance.

How could a businessman defeat His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince?

"The death of my wife and child is proof of this. If I hadn't used your Hua Yan, my child wouldn't have died.

And my wife, I have already sent someone to find Doctor Li. Now that my wife has passed away, it was you and Han Yian who acted on your own initiative.

Killing the family of an official appointed by the imperial court is punishable by death according to the laws of our dynasty."

Whether it was Hua Yan's matter or Wen Lengyan's death today, Pei Xuewen would blame Lin Ting. With this two-pronged approach, he didn't believe that he couldn't catch Lin Ting today.

"Lin Ting, everyone knows that Hua Yan caused my wife to have a miscarriage. If you know what's good for you, don't struggle."

Lin Ting raised his eyebrows and asked, "Did you let someone spread it?"

Everyone is here. This was something he had planned long ago. Pei Xuewen must have had someone do it in advance. Did he really think that he could force her to submit in this way?

"So what if it was me? If you don't want to implicate your family, just be obedient. Maybe there's still a chance of survival."

Pei Xuewen's words were clear as day. Lin Ting's life or death this time all depended on who would win.

"It's the Seventh Prince..."

"Lin Ting."

Before Lin Ting could finish his words, Pei Xuewen yelled at him.

"Some things are better left unsaid. Put away what you have in your hands and don't make things too awkward."

Pei Xuewen had pointed it out, and Lin Ting was a smart man, so he believed that Lin Ting would make the right choice.

However, he still didn't understand Lin Ting well enough.

"Oh, for the sake of power and outsiders, you can even use your own wife's life. I am a businessman, yes, but I, Lin Ting, will never cooperate with people like you, even if we serve the same master."

Lin Ting's demeanor was stern, and she was not frightened at all by Pei Xuewen's words. She seemed to have no fear at all, and she was not afraid that the Seventh Prince would deal with her family.

"Okay, it seems that if you don't accept my toast, you will have to drink the wine instead. Don't blame me for being tough."

Pei Xuewen waved his hand, thinking that a large army would come to deal with Lin Ting, but unexpectedly, all the palace soldiers moved a little and then dared not move forward.

Lin Ting did not move, but kept turning the two black balls back and forth in his hands like walnuts.

This is poison. Anyone who dares to step forward will die. Faced with such danger, the soldiers of Pei Mansion were all so scared that they dared not move.

Pei Xuewen turned his head left and right to look at the people looking at him. What a bunch of trash, they are not fit to be used.

"What are you afraid of? Capture Lin Ting and Han Yian. Whoever captures these two will be rewarded handsomely."

The people in Pei Mansion did not dare to move, but those who came with Han Yian were real soldiers. They only obeyed orders and were not cowards at all.

Seeing that his men were unable to do anything to Lin Ting, Pei Xuewen could only utter harsh words.

"Alright, Lin Ting and Han Yian killed my wife and child. If you leave this door today, I will not let you go."

As soon as Pei Xuewen finished his harsh words, the door behind Lin Ting opened, and Wen Lengyan dragged his weak body to lean against the door frame.

His red eyes were filled with hatred towards Pei Xuewen.

"Who said I'm dead?"

Seeing that Wen Lengyan was still alive, Pei Xuewen widened his eyes and his lips trembled.

Didn't Lin Ting just tell him to prepare for Wen Lengyan's funeral? How could Wen Lengyan still be alive?

"Husband...ma'am?"

"Shut up... Pei Xuewen, you make me feel sick..."

Wen Lengyan was weak, but every word he spoke was clear.

"Everyone, listen up! My life was saved by Madam Lin. Anyone who dares to touch her is going against me, Wen Lengyan, and the Wen family."

After warning the servants of the Pei Mansion, Wen Lengyan's gaze returned to Pei Xuewen again. Seeing that he was still alive, he was not surprised at all, but was filled with horror and fear.

"Pei Xuewen, today, I, Wen Lengyan, in front of everyone in the Pei Mansion, want to divorce you."

There was only Pei Xuewen's mother in the Pei Mansion. She went to the mountains to worship Buddha some time ago. He also had an older sister who married a scholar and worked as a county magistrate in a small county. Her sister also followed her husband to live south.

"Madam, you're not feeling well right now. Don't get excited. I've already asked someone to call Doctor Li over. He'll be here to prescribe medicine for you soon. Don't talk nonsense about divorce or not."

Pei Xuewen can be widowed, but he absolutely cannot divorce. If Wen Lengyan dies during childbirth, he can mourn her deeply and he can still use the favors of the Wen family.

If they divorced, he might be suppressed before the Seventh Prince ascended the throne, which was absolutely unacceptable.

Han Yian supported Wen Lengyan, walked out of the room, stood in front of Pei Xuewen, and spoke sharply.

"I dare not take Doctor Li's medicine anymore, Pei Xuewen, I treat you sincerely, but you have been plotting against me.

Ever since the day I married you, you've had my clothes fumigated with musk. You don't want to have children with me at all.

But you never expected that I have been practicing martial arts since I was a child, and a little bit of musk can't stop me from getting pregnant.

Pregnant women who use musk for a long time will be at risk of miscarriage. Because of my pregnancy, my body is getting weaker and weaker.

You and Doctor Li came up with a plan to use this child to take my life. I knew long ago that I couldn't save this child, and the herbal medicine that Doctor Li boiled for me.

You may not know this, but people in my grandmother's hometown say that if you bury the boiled herbs, the disease will heal quickly."
