The gambling god's wife in the Duke's Mansion is getting divorced again

Sang Wan took a deep breath.

She touched her chest, still in shock.

"My Lord, you must keep your word. I'm a coward, and you might scare me to death next time."

"How dare you rush forward to block the arrow? Don't do stupid things next time. No one is worth dying for."

Pei Jinzhi lowered his eyes, and after the heat dissipated, his starry eyes were as cold as ice.

"Are you born so cold-blooded and heartless?"

Sang Wan became interested in him.

He is as still as a mountain, rarely showing his emotions on his face. Is he still a human being?

"Enthusiasm will only make people feel cheap. This is a jungle where the strong prey on the weak. If you are weak, you will only become food for the strong." Pei Jinzhi ignored her curiosity.

Sang Wan chewed on the strange taste in his words.

Are you saying that she is too enthusiastic and cheap?

Or was he really reminding her?

"Then how can I become stronger?" she asked.

"Being soft-hearted is strength. Being soft-hearted will only lead to your death."

He said this slowly and got on the carriage.

The horse driver appeared from somewhere.

He whipped his whip, the horses' hooves neighed, and the melodious and crisp sound of the carriage bells echoed through the valley. Before Sang Wan could react, the carriage had already galloped down the mountain.

“Hey! I haven’t gotten in the car yet!

Hey! Pei Jinzhi! Wait for me! "

Sang Wan hurriedly picked up her robe and ran after the carriage.

But two legs could not outrun four wheels. The carriage raised a cloud of dust and disappeared in a flash.

Sang Wan spat out a mouthful of dirt and stamped her feet in anger:

"Pei Jinzhi, you bastard!"

"It's dozens of miles from here to town! How am I supposed to get back if you leave me here?"

"Shameless villain! Repaying kindness with enmity!"

"Pei Jinzhi, one day I will kill you!"

The huge echo startled all the mountain birds in the forest, and they flew into the sky, flapping their wings and soaring in the sky. Sometimes they circled above Sang Wan's head, as if they were gathering in a flock to laugh at her.

Sang Wan picked up a small stone from the ground and threw it at the noisy bird in the air: "Don't laugh at me."

The bird flapped its wings and flew high, and a pile of bird poop fell on her head.

"Even you guys want to bully me!"

Sang Wan was almost mad with rage.

"Pei Jinzhi, I will never let you go!"

"what!!!"

*

Halfway up the mountain, Baili Xi met Pei Jinzhi on horseback.

Sang Wan's furious voice was heard from the top of the mountain. Although it was faint, it was clear. Every word was spoken with gritted teeth, shaking the sky.

Baili Xi almost laughed himself to death:

"Wen Ruo, are you really willing to let her go back?"

"If you don't teach her a lesson, how can you know that the mouth can cause trouble?"

Pei Jinzhi closed his eyelids, expressionless.

"The young lady is so delicate. What if robbers come along? She doesn't know any martial arts."

"In this peaceful and prosperous age, where would bandits come from?" Pei Jinzhi glared at him, "Except for you, a lecher."

Baili Xi bit a piece of grass root and sneered on horseback: "Tsk, you're jealous again."

"Why are you going to all this trouble to test her? It would be better to let Li Jiumeng go ahead and charge in and start a fight. It would be clear at a glance whether she has any martial arts skills or not."

"Reckless man." Pei Jinzhi didn't want to say more to him, so he closed his eyes and rested.

The pain from the golden needles today was worse than before; he could even hear the sound of his bones grinding against each other.

The pain spread from bottom to top of his head, as densely packed as tens of thousands of ants gnawing at him, and his head was splitting with pain.

Naturally, he didn't want Sang Wan to see his miserable side.

Baili Xi saw that something was wrong with him, and his heart couldn't help but hang in the air: "Wen Ruo, did they poison you?"

"He tried to stab me today." Pei Jinzhi leaned against the carriage wall and waved his hand slightly, "But he didn't poison me."

"I have ordered people to surround Tiansheng Hall."

"Thank you for your hard work." Pei Jinzhi nodded.

"It's really inappropriate for you to put yourself in danger. Medicine and poison are inseparable, and it's hard to guard against them." Baili Xi felt that he was taking too much risk.

Pei Jinzhi had a face as pale as paper and smiled calmly: "According to the date, the antidote for the Earth-Sprouting Golden Lotus should be ready. I didn't touch them before because of this."

"Then this Cheng Buyu was introduced by Sang Wan. Could she also be from Tianxuan Sect?"

Baili Xi's mind works very quickly.

Pei Jinzhi denied it without a second thought:

"She's not. Don't guess."

"Fortunately it's not, otherwise it would be a shame for that face."

Because of the assassination outside the capital, the late emperor issued an order to kill all without mercy to the Tianxuan Sect. Anyone who was related to this martial arts sect, regardless of gender, age or status, could be executed on the spot.

Baili Xi became excited and envious again:

"Wen Ruo, having such a devoted beauty by your side, your life will be complete without regrets."

He cooperated with Pei Jinzhi in this scene just for fun. The arrow missed by a few centimeters and would not hurt her life.

An ordinary woman would have been frightened to death long ago, so how could she still protect her master?

Pei Jinzhi is so lucky.

"In my opinion, it's only right for you to give her a concubine in the future. She's loyal!" Baili Xi added sourly, "It's impossible not to favor a concubine like her."

Whenever he thought of Sang Wan's bright face, his mind switched back and forth between envy and jealousy.

If he had known there was such a woman in Fengshui Town, he should have come earlier. What a pity!

Pei Jinzhi raised his eyebrows and retorted:

"My mind is full of wives and concubines. I think I should write a letter to my uncle and put your marriage on the agenda."

"Hey, I helped you today, don't repay me with evil." Baili Xi laughed awkwardly, "I haven't had enough fun yet."

As the two chatted, the carriage entered the city.

Li Jiu had been waiting at the city gate. "Master."

"Get in the car." Pei Jinzhi lowered the curtain.

Li Jiu got on the carriage and bowed in reply:

"When they dragged Sang Daqing from the bed of the courtesan in Changlefang today, he was still drunk and had been beaten up a few times. I asked the people at the restaurant and the music house, and they said he was indeed drunk last night. It wasn't him. Master, could it be that girl Sang Wan?"

"No." Pei Jinzhi lowered his eyes and denied it outright, "Throw Sang Daqing into the mountains to feed the wolves."

Even if it wasn't him, he should be taught a lesson.

"Yes!" Li Jiu had disliked him for a long time and was eager to beat him up a few more times on behalf of Sang Wan to vent his anger.

"Today, the servants of the Pei Mansion lined up one by one for the county lady to identify her, but she always said it wasn't you and insisted it was you. But we asked the servants of Lingyue Pavilion, and they didn't see anyone go in there. Could she have had a wet dream?"

Li Jiu couldn't help laughing while saying:

"If it doesn't work, sir, just admit it."

Pei Jinzhi rolled his eyes at him and said, "She must have been poisoned by the incense. Call Qinghe to Lingyue Pavilion."

Li Jiu was stunned for a moment, then slapped his head and said, "Yeah, why didn't I think about it this way? I'm so stupid."

Li Jiufei got off the carriage and disappeared in a moment.

Baili Xi was talking with people from the county government office at the city gate, looking outside the city from time to time.

After a while, a group of imperial guards came from outside the city, about a hundred people, each riding a tall horse, looking very majestic.

The leader dismounted upon seeing Baili Xi, trotted up to him, knelt down, and reported. Two others, holding his armor and helmet, helped him change his clothes.

Everyone in the county government office prostrated themselves and kowtowed, bowing their heads to greet him.

Baili Xi held the reins of the horse, looking majestic and awe-inspiring.

The team was all dressed in black armor and looked solemn.

This is the most elite guard team in the Yulin Army, which shows the love that the emperor and the queen have for Princess Jianing.

The people from the county government greeted them with trepidation, feeling very lucky that nothing went wrong.

Pei Jinzhi was in the carriage, a serious look flashing across his brows.

The emperor's imperial guards actually dispatched a hundred people here, and the emperor was determined to get the imperial edict.

Baili Xi winked at Pei Jinzhi in the carriage and said, "Let's go to Pei Mansion."

The decree for marriage finally came.

One month left.
