Chapter 201 - 201 Wife, There’s One Here!
201 Wife, There’s One Here!
Luo Ping was locked in the dungeon by You Huaijie. All the servants who had heard the royal family’s secret should also have been prosecuted. However, the citizens in the city also knew about it.
It was useless for You Huaijie to execute the people now. He could only pray that what happened that day would not reach the ears of King Chu or the Eldest Prince.
Otherwise, even if he survived, his career as an official would be over.
You Huaijie glared at Luo Ping, who was sleeping soundly. He was so angry that he wanted to stab him.
!!
If you can’t keep your mouth shut, why are you f***ing drinking!
He stomped on the cell door and left the dungeon. Behind him, Luo Ping snored like thunder.
Every prefecture city had a spy for King Chu.
The Eldest Prince had his own people also planted in every city to gather information.
Even if the commoners did not dare to discuss it on the surface, who would not mention it to their family in private?
Soon, Chu Mingxuan, who was far away in the Imperial City, received the news.
In his anger, all the expensive supplies in the entire house were smashed to pieces by him. He did not even feel any pain when his hand was injured and bleeding.
After Chu Mingxuan vented, his eyes were red, like a demon from hell, as he tore the letter into pieces.
“Dismember that dog Luo Ping! Whoever dares to talk about it in private will be executed!”
“Yes!”
Luo Ping woke up in the prison and scolded the jailers, “I’m a patrol officer! How dare you lock me up? Do you want to die?!”
His mind was blank. He couldn’t remember anything he had done during this time.
The jailer ignored him. Luo Ping was a piece of shit now. Anyone who touched him would become “shit.”
Seeing that the jailer was ignoring him, Luo Ping cursed even harder. Little did he know that soon, it would be his death.
Luo Ping had been starved in prison for three days and was on his last breath.
Finally, the cell door opened.
He opened his eyes, expecting to have a bite to eat.
However, he was dragged to the square.
There were people gathered around. Before his starved mind could react, the rope was tightened around his hands, feet, and neck. Then, five horses were led over.
Hearing the horses neigh, Luo Ping suddenly realized that they were going to dismember him!
The cold guard said, “Release!”
The horse was released.
Luo Ping’s eyes widened in fear. He used the remaining energy from his body as he shouted at the sky, “No! I’m the patrol officer! I’m the Eldest Prince’s subordinate. You can’t treat me like this!”
“Pa—”
With a whip, the horses ran in all directions.
“Ahhhhhh—”
The scream echoed through the square. Blood splattered. Ropes snapped. The scream stopped.
The commoners could not bear to look at him and lowered their heads.
This move was very effective. In the entire Luochuan Prefecture, the commoners did not dare to mention the matter in private anymore.
However, Chu Mingxuan was still anxious. He did not know if King Chu had already heard about it.
Whether he had heard or not, he had to marry a second consort immediately to prove himself!
At the same time, he was even more careful when sending someone to find a doctor.
…
Bai Wutong was very envious of Chu Tianbao and the others for knowing qinggong, so she asked Qingfeng to teach her.
She tied a few kilograms of sandbags around her legs and stood on a wooden stake the size of an apple.
Under the sun, she stood on one foot. Even though she could change her feet during this period, she was still exhausted.
During her first time practicing it, she could not last for an hour.
By now, she could last the entire afternoon and had made tremendous improvement.
Of course, this was also thanks to Qingfeng transferring her inner energy every day.
Cui Lingyi was eating snacks and drinking honey tea at the side. She sighed in enjoyment and said to Cui Muzhi, who was at another pillar, “You have to last for two hours today.”
With Bai Wutong learning qinggong, it brought about a wave of martial arts training in the village.
Cui Muzhi was one of them.
His master was Lan Jingbai, but he kept making excuses, saying that he was too lonely practicing alone and could not persevere, so Cui Lingyi dragged him to Bai Wutong’s place.
Bai Wutong’s astonishing perseverance indeed gave him a lot of motivation. It was originally difficult for her to last for half an hour, but she actually lasted for an hour the day before.
Cui Muzhi looked at the tea in Cui Lingyi’s hand and smacked his dry lips. He exaggerated in grief, “If you want me to last an hour, you have to kill me!”
Cui Lingyi raised her eyebrows. “Look at Little Phoenix! Then look at you. How can a man be so short-sighted!”
Cui Muzhi turned his head and saw that there were many more sandbags tied to her legs compared to his. Her weak and slender body had been staying motionless for so long.
Cui Muzhi felt driven. All of a sudden, his body was filled with explosive perseverance as he looked ahead firmly.
No matter how persistent he was, he still fell off the wooden stake because of his lack of stamina.
Fortunately, he was caught by Lan Jingbai.
...
Cui Lingyi clapped her hands to congratulate him. “Not bad. If you last for nearly two hours today, you can try four hours tomorrow!”
When Cui Muzhi heard this, he immediately collapsed into Lan Jingbai’s arms. “I’m dead. I’m already dead.”
He looked like he had completely given up.
Bai Wutong, who was focused on practicing her foundation skills, was amused by him.
The sun above her had set to the back of the house. Her clothes had already soaked in sweat.
At this point, it was already her limit.
She glanced at the time in the space. Great. She had improved by five minutes since the day before.
Although it was only five minutes, it was enough to satisfy her.
Her legs went weak as she tried to get off the wooden stake. As soon as Qingfeng reached out, she was picked up by Chu Tianbao.
He looked happy and said impatiently, “Wife, I’ve already filled the bath. We can go take a shower now.”
Cui Lingyi was speechless.
...
Qingfeng: “…”
Cui Muzhi: “…”
Bai Wutong hurriedly covered Chu Tianbao’s mouth and glanced at the others with a red face.
Cui Lingyi coughed lightly. “Muzhi, we should go home and eat.”
Cui Muzhi nodded repeatedly. “Ah ah ah, yes, yes, yes!!! Jingbai, carry me back quickly!”
Qingfeng followed them. Everyone was obviously going back much faster that day.
It was as if they wer afraid of being forced to watch more lovey-dovey act from them.
Bai Wutong glared at Chu Tianbao. “It’s me bathing! Not us! Also, don’t say such things in front of everyone in the future!”
Chu Tianbao blinked innocently, as if he didn’t think there was anything wrong with his words. However, he still had to listen to his wife.
He nodded obediently and asked excitedly, “Wife, are you going to wash up now? We can eat after that.” Then he could give his wife a massage.
Thinking of this, Chu Tianbao’s gaze landed on the front of Bai Wutong, and the heat in his eyes gradually rose.
Her entire body was sticky now. Although she didn’t have much strength, she still wanted to take a hot shower first.
She nodded, and Chu Tianbao carried her to the bathroom. He even prepared the pajamas she wanted to wear.
Just as she thought that she did not have any underwear and was about to go upstairs to get them herself, Chu Tianbao noticed her gaze and immediately understood. He reached out and handed her a piece of panties.
He even said excitedly, “Wife, there’s one here!”
Bai Wutong was speechless.
