Chu looked at him with hatred in her eyes: "What? Prince Li is also going to abuse his power for personal gain and wrongly accuse good people?"
Prince Li couldn't help but sneer: "Chu, how confident are you that you dare to attack Wanwan?"
Chu was so frightened by his sharp eyes that she couldn't help but take a half step back. She forced herself to speak: "I didn't do it. Those vicious things were done by the ugly ghost alone. She wanted to avenge me. I was kept in the dark from beginning to end!"
A hint of contempt appeared on Prince Li's indifferent face. He said calmly, "There are only two choices before you now. Either you commit suicide, or I will send you to prison for torture!"
Chu's eyes widened in disbelief. Prince Li actually wanted to kill her without a care in the world. Wasn't he afraid of being drowned in spit?
How could he kill innocent people at will?
When he met her gaze, Prince Li seemed to see through her thoughts. He sneered, "You Chu family, you are all foxes in the mountains. Do you think I don't know your dirty tricks? Why would the ugly ghost attack Wanwan? Wasn't he following your orders?"
Even when facing death, she still denied it dryly: "I didn't do it. Even if I hate her, I know myself!"
Prince Li shook his head: "No, you don't. If you really have any self-awareness, you shouldn't stay in the capital anymore!"
He paused and spoke again: "As long as I spread the word, if you attempt to assassinate me, you will die. Do you still want to delay any longer?"
Chu suddenly burst into tears and wailed, "Why are you forcing me like this? What have I done wrong? Uncle, do you really not want me to live? I sacrificed so much for the royal family back then, and now you can't tolerate me at all!"
Prince Li asked, "Is it that the royal family cannot tolerate you, or are you seeking your own death? Do you want me to repeat all the evil you have done?"
Chu shook her head vigorously: "No, don't say anymore, I die, I die, isn't it okay?"
She knelt at the feet of the King and begged, "It's my fault, I admit it, and I'm willing to die, but please, can you spare my daughter-in-law? She's pregnant with Qing Zhou's child, my only blood in this world!"
Li Wang's eyes were dim as he spoke: "Do you think she would still keep the child without you? Don't dream on, you can't keep the child!"
Chu suddenly raised her head as if she had gone mad and looked towards the cell next door. She asked in a hoarse voice: "Pei Yun, tell me yourself, will you keep my son's bloodline? Tell me quickly, tell me!"
She slammed the prison pillar hard, and could only hear Pei Yun crying in her ears: "I'm sorry, mother-in-law, why do you do so many evil things? No matter what I do, you can't blame me!"
Chu immediately understood her choice and was so angry that her teeth were bared and her eyes were gnashing.
She really loved this bitch in vain!
Why should she?
She shouted angrily: "Pei Yun, if you dare to hurt that child, I will never let you go even if I become a ghost. Just wait, just wait!"
Filled with anger and resentment, she slammed her head against the prison pillar with a bang.
Blood oozed from the cracks in her head and she was no longer breathing.
After King Li was sure that she was dead, he ordered his men to drag the body away.
As he walked out, he heard Pei Yun crying in his ears: "Prince, please forgive me. I know nothing about what I did to Chu!"
Prince Li said in a deep voice, "I forgot to tell you that the Pei family, who were sentenced to exile, were caught in a landslide while quarrying in the mountains, and everyone was crushed to death!"
Pei Yun even forgot to cry. Are they all dead?
So what hope does she have in this world?
Although she still has her brilliant nephew, he has never been close to her since childhood. Even when something happened to the Pei family, he never stood up and said anything.
He doesn't even recognize her as his aunt.
Feeling disheartened, she only felt waves of heat surging from her body.
She screamed in shock: "Someone, help me, I'm bleeding so much!"
That night, Lin Yiwan heard that Pei Yun and two others had died in the Dali Temple prison.
In the end, it was the British Duke Lu Dongnan who collected the bodies of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law and buried them hastily.
After this matter was settled, the barbarian envoys also entered the capital.
Lin Yiwan was worrying about what clothes to choose for the Lantern Festival banquet when she heard that Mrs. Fang Bai Qiaoyin came to visit her.
She quickly welcomed the person in and called out with a smile, "Sister-in-law, how come you have time to come here?"
Logically speaking, she should be reunited with her brother after a long separation, and should be in a very happy mood.
Bai Qiaoyin hadn't spoken yet, but her eyes were already red. She said in a trembling voice, "Wanwan, I know I shouldn't come to you to confide in you right now and cause you more trouble, but I really don't know who to talk to. I'm really feeling so suffocated!"
Lin Yiwan immediately understood that she was in trouble, and she quickly reached out and hugged her: "Don't cry, tell me what happened. Did you have a quarrel with my brother? If he bullied you, I would go and settle the score with him!"
Bai Qiaoyin didn't deny it, but bit her lip hard and said, "I want to divorce your brother. Will you support me?"
Lin Yiwan asked in surprise: "Why?"
She knew Fang Qingshan better than anyone else. Although he was a warrior, he was upright and sincere. He would never do anything to hurt his sister-in-law.
Unless there is a misunderstanding between the two!
A look of pain flashed across Bai Qiaoyin's face, and she whispered, "I've been married to your brother-in-law for many years, but we haven't had any children. I feel guilty, so I want to give each other a decent divorce!"
Lin Yiwan didn't believe it because of this. It wasn't her fault that she had no children!
The two of them are rarely together!
She sincerely comforted him, "This isn't grounds for divorce, and now that my brother is back at the border, he won't be sent out in a hurry. You'll have more time to spend together, and you'll definitely have children!"
Bai Qiaoyin's eyes immediately turned red again. She shook her head vigorously and said, "No more. He has someone else in his heart. How could he touch me again?"
Lin Yiwan suddenly spoke up, "How could that be? You said my brother-in-law has fallen in love with someone else? What's going on? Explain it to me!"
Bai Qiaoyin was silent for a moment before mumbling, "It's not that the Barbarian Princess is coming to the Sheng Dynasty to marry. The man she's marrying is your brother. It's said that they fell in love on the way here. Because she wasn't used to the climate here and riding in a carriage, your brother actually carried her on his back for quite a distance, and his feet were worn out!"
Lin Yiwan's face immediately darkened. How could her brother-in-law do such a thing? This kind of rotten kindness was really unacceptable.
No wonder his sister-in-law wanted to divorce him. If she were in his place, she would have made a fuss too.
But she couldn't interfere in the emotional affairs between husband and wife.
Just as he was considering how to comfort her, Fang Qingshan's anxious voice rang out from outside: "Yin'er, are you there? Listen to my explanation. Things are not what you think. Even if you want me to die, you have to give me a chance to defend myself!"
