Chapter 132 These next few days, you must abstain from spicy food, alcohol, and sexual intercourse!
Unable to suppress his anger, Qin Yi blurted out everything he wanted to say.
To say that His Highness is being ungrateful is like asking for trouble.
Nianqi was about to step forward and kick Qin Yi again, but Xiao Jingyan secretly stopped her.
If he can't stand the fact that so many people criticize him, then all these years of his life have been wasted.
You can scold him if you want; he just said a few words about Qin Wan, which is something Xiao Jingyan can't stand.
He stopped looking at Qin Yi and turned to Qin Huai beside him, saying, "Father-in-law, is this how you educate Third Brother? Such insults to a prince are punishable by exile!"
Xiao Jingyan's unhurried words immediately threw Qin Huai into a panic.
He couldn't stop Qin Yi just now, allowing him to vent his anger, but now he faces even more serious consequences.
"How dare you! You're here to apologize, but who gave you the right to speak so filthyly? Kneel down!" Qin Huai was also afraid, not of Xiao Jingyan, but of what would happen if this got back to His Majesty. He wouldn't be able to protect him then.
Qin Yi disagreed, believing he was right.
He was nothing but a useless prince with no real power. If he wanted to establish himself in Fengdu City in the future, he would have to rely on the Marquis's mansion.
Since he needs to rely on the Marquis's mansion, he should be the one currying favor with the Marquis's mansion, not the other way around.
"No, an apology is my bottom line, anything else..."
"You bastard!"
Qin Yi never expected his son to be so stubborn. Before Qin Yi could finish speaking, Qin Huai kicked Qin Yi in the shin, causing him to fall to his knees.
"Today I'll show you who's in charge in this house!"
Qin Huai grabbed a rattan cane from the side and struck Qin Yi on the back.
The vines whistled through the wind, making a buzzing sound, and when they landed on my body, they made a different kind of sound.
Springtime clothing is thin, and Qin Yi's outer garment was torn in no time.
Fresh blood seeped out, soaking his clothes.
Qin Huai stopped after hitting him ten times.
He was also angry, resentful towards Xiao Jingyan and Qin Wan, but he couldn't vent his anger on them.
The ten blows, following the vines, landed on Qin Yi's body. These ten blows were a real, solid ten.
It also seemed like he was acting out of spite.
"Fifth Prince, is this alright?" Qin Huai was no longer as attentive as before; his face was gloomy, almost as if ink could be squeezed out of it.
Xiao Jingyan was satisfied. Since he had already been punished, he didn't need to take any further action.
"How can a son-in-law instruct his father-in-law on what to teach his son? Just don't forget to fast for a month!"
Qin Yi's eyes were bloodshot and filled with murderous intent. He was determined to avenge the humiliation he had suffered today!
"Of course, I will send someone to keep an eye on him and make sure he fasts for a month!"
When Qin Yi left Wanyue Courtyard, he was supported by others.
Seeing that the outsiders had left, Xiao Jingyan instantly returned to her previous demeanor, smiling as she looked at Qin Wan.
"How was it? Did I do a good job of pretending?"
Qin Wan paused, her lips twitching slightly.
"Forehead......"
"I learned all of this from my father. This is how my father disciplines his ministers. I practiced it in private for a long time and finally got to use it!"
Xiao Jingyan smiled like a child.
This made Qin Wan wonder which side of the person in front of her was the real one!
......
Afternoon, around 3 PM.
In an alley at the end of Zhuque Street.
Cuizhu had been waiting at the door for over an hour, but Su Yan'er still hadn't come out.
She tried to open the door several times along the way, but it was locked and she couldn't.
They dared not make too much noise, lest they attract thieves.
More than an hour of intense mental stress left her feeling terrible, and she even considered abandoning Su Yan'er and escaping back to the Marquis's mansion several times.
Just as she was about to give up, the courtyard gate creaked open from the inside.
Cuizhu turned her head in a panic and saw Su Yan'er walking out from inside.
"Miss, are you alright? You've been gone for so long, I was so worried about you!" Cuizhu threw away the wooden stick in her hand and helped Su Yan'er up.
Why are the young lady's hands colder than hers?
Is the young lady trembling?
Su Yan'er slowly turned around and bowed slightly to the old woman in front of her, "Thank you, Granny Tang!"
Grandma Tang didn't raise her eyebrows, and replied calmly, "You must avoid spicy food, alcohol, and sexual intercourse for the next few days!"
After saying that, before Su Yan'er could say anything more, Granny Tang slammed the courtyard gate shut.
Cuizhu, who was standing nearby, was very surprised when she heard what the old woman had said. What did she mean by "not being allowed to share a room"?
What did Miss do inside just now?
Cuizhu was worried that Su Yan'er had been deceived, and asked hesitantly, "Miss, what did you go inside to do just now?"
Su Yan'er walked outside, but the healing technique she had just undergone left her body in excruciating pain, and every step she took felt like torture.
After taking two steps, his body began to tremble uncontrollably.
"Miss, what's wrong? Why are you shaking so badly?" Cuizhu was a little flustered.
"Was it that old woman who abused you inside? Don't be afraid, Miss, we'll report it to the authorities!"
Su Yan'er glared at Cui Zhu through the curtain, but Cui Zhu didn't see it.
His face was deathly pale and covered in cold sweat, his voice trembling. "Pretend you know nothing about what just happened. If anyone asks what we did today, just say we went to the temple to pray for blessings. If you dare to reveal even a single word, I will not forgive you!"
Su Yan'er's voice wasn't loud, but it carried a cold and stern tone, making Cuizhu dare not disobey.
She didn't know where Su Yan'er had gone, but she knew it couldn't be anything good, so she simply stopped asking.
The journey here took about an hour, but this time it took Su Yan'er a full hour. She was in so much pain.
I also hope that she will not let down the suffering she has endured today in the future.
Once she recovers, she will still be a virgin, and no matter who she marries, she won't have to worry about being discovered.
However, Granny Yu said that this kind of magic can only be performed once per person, which means that she only has this one chance.
It was already evening when they returned to the Marquis's residence.
Su Yan'er got off the carriage and happened to see Qin Wan and Xiao Jingyan walking out together.
Qin Wan initially didn't want to pay attention to Su Yan'er, but seeing that she was wearing a curtain and walking very slowly, she couldn't help but go to greet her.
"Sister Yan'er, what's wrong with you?" Qin Wan asked with genuine concern, but they all knew that her concern was feigned.
Su Yan'er was only focused on her footing and only noticed Qin Wan when she heard the sound.
He cursed inwardly: What bad luck, running into my fourth sister.
Su Yan'er lifted the curtain, revealing her pale face, and forced a smile, but the smile didn't reach her eyes.
"Greetings, Fifth Prince and Fourth Sister!"
Su Yan'er bent down slightly; her body was in great pain, and as she bent down, she felt as if her lower body was being torn apart.
Seeing her in pain, Qin Wan became even more curious.
"Is something wrong, Sister Yan'er? Quickly, let the royal physician take a look!"
Su Yan'er hurriedly waved her hand, "Thank you for your concern, Fourth Sister. I'm fine. Today, when I went to Cheng'an Temple to offer incense to my father, I twisted my ankle without noticing. I've already had the doctor examine it, and there's no broken bone. It's just a little painful when I walk. There's no need to trouble the family physician!"
The two followed Su Yan'er's gaze and looked down.
"You can't be careless with a twisted ankle, little sister Yan'er needs to rest more!"
"Thank you for your concern, Fourth Sister."
Without saying another word, Su Yan'er walked towards her own courtyard with Cui Zhu's help.
Qin Wan watched her retreating figure, a hint of doubt creeping into her eyes.
"Nianqi, go and investigate where Su Yan'er went just now!"
