Someone in the servants couldn't help but laugh. Ling Wang's blue and red face immediately turned purple, and his whole body was trembling with anger.
"When I was in charge of the family rules, I didn't want anyone to interrupt. Ling Hu, Ling Bao!" Following Yan Yexi's words, the two burly men standing behind Ling Wangning took a step forward. "If anyone disturbs me again, slap me twenty times!"
"Yes sir!"
The voice that had just been sneering immediately died down, and the hall became quiet again. Even the sound of breathing could not be heard.
"Next, I will carry out the family rules..."
"Mom, what's going on? Why did you do such a shameful thing? How can I keep my foothold in front of this old man in the future?" Ling Tianyun's arrogant voice came from far and near. When the crowd saw Yan Yexi's Furong face suddenly turned black, their hearts couldn't help but tremble.
"Alas, this young master of the Heavenly Soldier Sect! When did you find it hard to interrupt? Why did you happen to be involved in the limelight?" The crowd felt the temperature in the hall drop to the freezing point with a whoosh. They complained inwardly and directly repeated Ling Tianyun's repeats a hundred and eight times.
Ling Tianyun ran into the hall in disheveled clothes, followed by Chamberlain Ling Tong. It seemed that Ling Tong had secretly run out to call Ling Tianyun back by sending the old man back to his house. Therefore, everyone asked Ling Tianyun 108 times in their hearts.
When Ling Wangtian saw Ling Tianyun coming in, he was happy and immediately changed his cross-dressing into a little sheep shape. His tears came out in a flash and he cried bitterly, "Yun'er, you must uphold justice for your mother!" Then he began to flood.
Ling Tianyun rushed in and saw the three people tied up like rice dumpling in the hall. One of them was really his mother. He was so angry that his eyes turned red. He began to beat and kick the unlucky Li Hua and Chen An.
Yan Yexi was afraid that there would be no more operas after he killed the two of them, so she quickly shouted,"Ling Hu Ling Bao, quickly pull Young Master away!"
Ling Hu and Ling Bao hurriedly responded and pushed Ling Tianyun away from him from the left and right sides.
"Young lady, you just said who would interrupt my execution of family law, slap twenty times! Hubby, you came at the wrong time. I can't break my promise. I'm sorry, 'Husband'. Linghu and Ling Bao, let's do it!" Yan Yexi brought a teacup to the ground, scaring everyone.
Only then did Ling Tianyun see that the person sitting in the hall wasn't his father, but his wife. The anger he had just now immediately started to burn once again and smoothly returned to Yan Yexi's head. "What is this little hoof of yours doing in the main seat? Do you think there's no one in the Ling Family? That son is me, Ling..."
"Pa!" A crisp sound rang out. Ling Tianyun was successfully silenced. Yan Yexi was holding a hand-shaped flexible piece of wood in his hand. It was this thing that had just come out of Ling Tianyun's mouth.
"There are still nineteen times." Yan Yexi was so angry that she put the little wooden hand into Ling Hu's hand with a smile. "If you're less than one time, you'll be hit ten times."
Ling Hu had yet to react. He was still some distance away from his position to his young master, so he didn't see how the Young Madam had come up to him. It was only when Ling Bao stabbed him several times that he hurriedly replied, "Yes." His subordinates didn't dare to show any mercy. They raised their wooden hands and drew their bows and headed straight for Ling Tianyu's face. This blood-soaked slap made many of the servant girls' faces turn pale. Some of them who wanted to scream immediately covered their mouths.
When the Wang family saw their loved son being slapped until his lips were broken and his teeth were shaking, the small universe suddenly erupted. They actually struggled to stand up and hit Yan Yexi with their heads. Unfortunately, Yan Yexi was not the same Yan Yexi. She flashed lightly, and the Wang family just happened to bump into Ling Tianyun's stomach.
Ling Tianyun was hit hard by her. He spat out a mouthful of dirty blood with his teeth, and his eyes turned white and he passed out.
Ling Wangtian saw that he had bumped into the wrong son and in a panic, he lost his strength. He fell to the ground and began to cry loudly.
Yan Yexi was annoyed by her words. She went forward and found a bellyband from Ling Tianyun's body and stuffed it directly into Ling Wang's mouth to silence her. Ling Wang was so angry that he almost rolled his eyes, but he finally calmed down.
Ling Tong was so frightened that he wanted to send Ling Tianyun to his father's side for treatment. Yan Yexi sauntered over to Li Hua and Chen An, who was already on the verge of death, and used her toe to kick them. When she saw that they could still lift their eyelids and moan a few times, she finally relaxed. She placed her hands behind her back and continued the family law that had been interrupted for a long time, "You two treacherous men! Even if I were to beat both of you to death in the hall today, the yamen wouldn't blame me! If I send you two to the government, I'll give the yamen an explanation, but you'll have to come in and take responsibility. However, our Ling family is still a big family in Qingyuan City, so we care most about the family's reputation. Besides, you two are still human lives, so I can't bear to kill you two. How about this, we treat you as my husband and father-in-law's blessings. We'll settle our personal bill. As long as you are willing to compensate our family for the loss of our reputation, our father-in-law's medical expenses, the feeding fees, and my mother-in-law's use of it as well as the protection fee, let's just write on the desert and wipe it all clean. What do you think?"
Li Hua and Chen An were originally children of a wealthy family. Although they had been set up and suffered a loss in silence, they did have s*x with that woman last night. They were both in the wrong and in the wrong. If they were to cause trouble in the court, they would definitely not be able to escape. Moreover, they were from the court and could be wiped clean even if they had a lot of money. Hence, when the two of them heard that they could solve the problem with money, they immediately recovered some of their spirits. Li Hua struggled and raised his head to look at Yan Ye Xi from her swollen eyes. "Thank you for your generosity, Young Madam. I don't know how much money Young Madam wants before she doesn't pursue us anymore."
Yan Yexi smiled slightly,"200,000 taels of silver, everyone."
Li Hua and Chen An immediately collapsed in the hall.
Chen An cried, and his head banged on the floor. "Young Madam, I beg you, I beg you to show mercy. I really don't have so much money. Young Madam, I beg you."
Yan Yexi pretended not to see it and smiled,"No, right? Then we have to meet in the public hall. Oh right, my father-in-law is so angry that his life is uncertain this morning. If you are not lucky, then my father-in-law will not only be r***d if he goes west."
Chen An had no more breath at the moment. He just sobbed on the ground.
After a while, only the sound of Chen An sobbing and the sound of Ling Wangwang being gagged could be heard in the hall. Yan Yexi sat back in the main seat and hummed with her small feet dangling.
Li Hua was already more cunning than Chen An, so he thought about it for a long time before finally raising his head to look at Yan Yexi. Gnashing his teeth, he agreed,"Fine, two hundred thousand taels is two hundred thousand taels. I admit defeat today. However, there is one thing that I don't understand, so I ask Young Madam for help. I will admit it even if I die."
Yan Yexi knew what he wanted to say when she saw his expression. He definitely wanted to ask who from the Ling family brought four beautiful maids. Moreover, if he asked this question, the entire world would know that Yan Yexi had something to do with this matter. Thus, she only shook her head and walked in front of Li Hua, kicking him far away with a kick.
"There's no room for you to negotiate terms with me here." Yan Yexi gracefully withdrew his leg, half-kneeling in front of Chen An. "Your brother has already agreed. Are you going to go to the prison alone?"
Chen An shook his head like a rattle and responded quickly.
Yan Yexi put away the guilty letter and compensation letters that the two of them had drawn and ordered her to untie the ropes around them. She then asked the servant woman to bring them their clothes. Even though the two of them were completely red from head to toe, they were even more embarrassed when they were putting on their clothes under everyone's eyes. Chen An couldn't help but cry.
"Sirs, don't think about running away. The consequences will definitely make you wish you were dead. Don't think about seeking death. Even if you die, your family will still have to pay for the debt. And I promise you that it will definitely be more than that." Yan Yexi smiled and narrowed her eyes. She looked like an innocent and adorable little girl, but the words she said caused Chen Li and Li to fall directly into the 18th floor of hell. "We'll see each other in three days!"
After sending off the Chen and Li pair, Yan Yexi sent the servants at home to follow them secretly to prevent them from playing any tricks, and then she pointed the spearhead at Ling Wang Family.
###Chapter8, Chrysanthemum Square and Sky-Supporting Pillar
"I have a family discipline in my house that I want to tell you. Listen carefully, it's that if someone slaps your right cheek, you'll have to slap his left cheek as well as 100 times interest. Granny, you should know what I'm talking about, right?" Yan Yexi whispered in Ling Wangning's ear in a ghost-like voice.
Hearing what she said, Ling Wang family blankly listened to her. When she understood the meaning of the words, her eyes suddenly showed a fierce light, and she jumped up and rushed straight to Yan Yexi.
However, Yan Yexi only dodged sideways and made a sharp round kick with his right leg, causing Ling Wangwang to throw himself at the concubines who were standing to the side.
Ignoring the cries of the suppressed concubine, Yan Yexi gathered up her slightly messy hair and said to the other concubines whose faces were filled with fear, "All of you, escort this wicked woman to the ancestral hall behind to wait for the clan leader to punish her. If she runs away or dies, you will be punished on her behalf. Do you hear me?"
Those concubines had seen the means of Yan Yexi, so they didn't dare to disobey her. They all agreed and then went out with Ling Wangtian.
The last sound in the hall disappeared, and the remaining servants did not dare to move because Yan Yexi did not say anything.
Yan Yexi had earned hundreds of thousands of taels in one shot, and he had gotten his revenge. He was in a very good mood now, so he didn't continue to show his authority over the servants. He only said a few words, "I'm always clear about the rewards and punishments. You guys are well-behaved and know what you should do and what you should do. Since you know when to advance and when to retreat, you can naturally live a comfortable life under my hands. Also, I'm a generous person. As long as you don't make mistakes, I guarantee that your annual income will be more than what you earn in three to five years. But if you guys say what you shouldn't and do what you shouldn't do, don't blame me for being merciless. Understood?"
