Chapter 420: Not a Bride, Be an Old Mother 18
“It’s because of me.” Xiao Jinan trembled slightly, never looking at Qingcheng from beginning to end, “My son was wrong and almost plunged the entire palace into dire straits. Please ask your father to punish me.”
The whip was finally given.
Nine whips, whips with skin and flesh torn.
Lin Chunhuan watched with fear, but she did not move away even a step. During this period, blood drops fell on her fingertips. It was warm and had a slight fishy smell, which frightened her.
But it also made her uncontrollably excited and trembling.
She could see the resentful look in Xiao Jinan's eyes when he looked at her. This man probably still thought that Xiao Cen was really forced to marry her because of the serious crime of resisting the imperial edict.
If it hadn’t been for her deliberate seduction last night, I’m afraid even she herself would have thought so.
But although she was not smart, she was not blind or deaf. She could see Xiao Cen's concentration when he looked at her, and she could hear Xiao Cen calling her name over and over again.
But it doesn’t matter...
Kneading away the blood beads on her fingertips, Lin Chunhuan looked scared, her heart calming down a little. This was just the beginning.
Xiao Jinan is just the first one.
"Your Majesty!"
When the tenth whip was about to fall, Lin Chunhuan finally stood up and took hold of Xiao Cen's arm, "Stop it, the prince must have realized his mistake."
“As your child grows up, you still have to save some face in front of outsiders.”
In the second half of the sentence, Lin Chunhuan almost said it while lying on Xiao Cen's arm. She was small, and if she wanted to reach Xiao Cen's ear, she had to stand on tiptoes, and half of her body was pressed on Xiao Cen's arm.
The soft touch and the gentle breath like feathers tickled Xiao Cen's heart.
“Since Ah Huan begged for mercy, I will spare him this time.”
Xiao Cen let out a sigh of relief and lightly kicked Xiao Jinan’s calf, “Give it to your mother and concubine. After seeing the ceremony, go to the ancestral hall and think about your mistakes.”
“…Yes”
Xiao Jin's whole body was shaking.
Xiao Cen did a great job of hitting three birds with one stone with his whip, but he didn’t even have any strength left in his hand. Xiao Jinan only knows how to punch and kick. After today, he won’t die, but he will have to shed his skin!
·Looking at the man in front of her who was full of resentment, unwilling to give in, but unable to do anything to her, Lin Chunhuan squinted her eyes and smiled, and did not let him kowtow. Instead, she supported him with a kind face. "Okay, don't embarrass the child."
"Since I am a mother, how can I really care about a child!"
Lin Chunhuan glanced at Xiao Cen tenderly, and then looked towards Yu Guanjia said, "Hurry up and help the prince in, let the doctor come and take a look."
"Your Majesty's hand is too heavy. It's better not to let the child suffer any disease."
Lin Chunhuan took one child at a time, causing Xiao Jinan's face to change several times, but he couldn't say anything. As for Qingcheng, see No one paid attention to her and followed Xiao Jinan through the door.
"The princess really understands the righteousness. If I was caught running away from my marriage in the street, it wouldn't be complete unless I peeled off the person's skin. The princess actually let me go so lightly."
" If she can be so kind to other people’s children, Princess Pingyang must be a kind person!”
“That’s right, King Pingyang is still discerning, this kid is just not as good as me...”
There are many similar remarks, and people will always believe what they want to believe, so even though Lin Chunhuan's performance just now was so exaggerated, because in public, almost no one doubted her intentions.
She was too magnanimous to be difficult. She was so magnanimous that she didn't seem to be making things difficult. As soon as they got on the carriage, Xiao Cen put her hand in his palm and squeezed it, "Are you relieved?"
"I knew the prince did it on purpose."
Lin Chunhuan curled her lips, but did not take her hands out. She said she was angry and complaining, but her appearance was more like coquettishness. She snorted softly, the beauty was coquettish, and Xiao Cen swallowed his saliva unconsciously.
"Your Majesty has punished the eldest son openly and openly, so I am not in good health anymore to worry about escaping from the marriage that day, and it will be even worse to take advantage of it in the future." Lin Chunhuan lowered his head and exhaled, "It doesn't matter, you are a family after all. No matter what I do, I can’t blame the prince.”
“Ah Huan said this deliberately to hurt my heart.”
Lin Chunhuan turned away awkwardly and looked outside. She knew what Xiao Cen meant.
The few whips just now were used to make Xiao Jinan's important matter trivial. Lin Chunhuan understood Xiao Cen's approach.
After all, from Xiao Cen's point of view, they were going to be a family living under the same roof in the future, and she embarrassed Xiao Jinan as soon as she started.
With such a deep estrangement between them, I'm afraid there will be a lot of confusion in the future.
But he punished what he deserved today. Things in the past can always be past. Lin Chunhuan no longer clings to his past mistakes, so that he can live a better life.
I have to say that Xiao Cen’s idea is right.
It’s just that he doesn’t know that just a few whips can’t erase the pain of Lin Chunhuan being made a laughing stock and being humiliated several times in her previous life. It can’t erase the pain of being a laughing stock and being humiliated for many years. It can’t erase the pain of being alone in an empty house for many years, unable to have a child, and being slandered and driven back as an adulterer. The hatred of my mother’s family.
Although neither Xiao Jinan nor Qingcheng was the one who ultimately killed her.
But her death and all the insults she had suffered were inseparable from these two people. They had to be picked up high, but they could not be put down lightly!
But at this time, there was no need for her to go against Xiao Cen.
The days are long.
When Xiao Cen had his own child in the future, he discovered that Xiao Jinan was a piece of shit who couldn't be raised up. Will he still protect her?
Lin Chunhuan pursed her lips and looked out stubbornly, but her tone slowly softened, "I know it. The prince deliberately waited for my persuasion before stopping. This is to help me establish my authority."< br>
"Your Majesty's kindness will be remembered by me."
Xiao Cen next to me was obviously relieved and held Lin Chunhuan's hand tighter, "Fortunately, Ah Huan was smart and didn't let me "I'm so embarrassed."
Lin Chunhuan sniffed and turned around, seeing her red eyes and even the tip of her nose turning slightly red from holding back tears, looking as aggrieved as a little rabbit.
Xiao Cen opened his mouth, feeling so distressed that his heart tingled slightly.
He even regretted a little. He shouldn't have held back his strength just now, and he should have beaten that bastard Xiao Jinan to death!
"I can no longer care about what happened before, but..." Lin Chunhuan pursed her lips, with a probing look in her eyes, "The prince escaped from marriage for the sake of that beautiful girl, what will he do for her in the future if he can't protect everything? Your Majesty." , are you planning to let that girl in?"
"Prince."
Before Xiao Cen spoke, Lin Chunhuan suddenly held his hand, "I'm looking at that girl today. I'm afraid she's pregnant, so you have to think carefully about it."
Xiao Cen raised his head fiercely, frowning like a fly, "A Huan, are you sure?"
"Although I am indeed. I don’t like the medical woman, but this kind of thing...can’t just slander a woman’s reputation!”
It’s no wonder that Xiao Cen refused to believe it all of a sudden. At this time, I’m afraid even Xiao Jinan and Qingcheng themselves didn’t know about this. Otherwise, Xiao Jinan wouldn’t have tried so hard to force her to nod by returning home. If it hadn’t been for someone from the previous life Lin Chunhuan didn't dare to speak out about memory so directly.
