Chapter 137 To make amends, Yunyi will forgive me, right?
"No!" Lan Wanru screamed at the top of her lungs, her forehead already dripping with cold sweat, "You can't hit me! You can't hit me!"
In Qi State, if an official lady like Lan Wanru made a mistake, she would almost always be taken to the ancestral hall in the mansion and punished by her clan members.
If it was a minor mistake, he would be punished by kneeling in the ancestral hall and copying scriptures. If he made a big mistake, he would be punished directly by the family.
But in order to discredit Lan Yunyi, she brought the matter to Shuntian Mansion.
In the end, it was her whose reputation was tarnished.
Lan Wanru was the first to make a decision in front of so many ladies.
The target position is still on the buttocks.
Presumably after today, if she is still alive, she will no longer have any reputation, let alone a good marriage.
The bad reputation will probably accompany Lan Wanru for the rest of her life.
Master Lin threw the token away lightly, and several government officials walked toward her step by step holding thick and heavy boards. Lan Wanru felt scared for the first time.
"Brother, Wanru has made a mistake...Brother, please save Wanru..."
Great fear overwhelmed her, and she took two steps back at a loss, looking at Lan Guangfu with panicked eyes.
Lan Guangfu looked at her and her pitiful face, but suddenly felt a little creepy.
He has seen this pretty little face countless times.
She looked like this when she begged Lan Yunyi to cut her wrists to get blood; she also looked like this when she was exposed for pretending to be sick... Now she abuses her grandmother and frames Yunyi with this pitiful face!
It's like a thick mask, and I don't know how many people it has deceived.
Then when she happily threw herself into his arms and kept saying how much she liked him, was she also wearing this hypocritical mask?
Lan Guangfu silently took two steps back. At this moment, he felt a little panicked and frightened. He couldn't help but want to talk to Lan Yunyi more to calm his anxious heart.
He walked slowly to Lan Yunyi's side and watched her lazily leaning on the back of the chair, her side face illuminated by the sun, with her little down slightly standing up.
Lan Guangfu recalled that before he joined the army, every time he came home from martial arts practice, Lan Yunyi would happily wait for him at the door of Lan's house, pounced on him like a bird.
The furry head rested in his arms, making him feel extremely happy and satisfied.
Lan Guangfu thought about it, and felt a warmth in his chest. He looked motionlessly at Lan Yunyi's little head leaning on the back of the chair, but he couldn't control his hands and wanted to touch her.
It's been too long...it's been too long...
The lost bird wandering outside, it’s time to go home...
His eyes became slightly moist.
Several government officials pressed Lan Wanru forcefully onto the torture instrument, and tied her hands and feet with rough hemp ropes. The smell of blood from the torture instrument poured into Lan Wanru's nose, and Lan Wanru's fearful limbs were all over her body.
Shivering.
"Brother, save me...brother..."
Her voice was completely hoarse, and the ladies' eyes fell on her back and buttocks, as if they wanted to take off her clothes.
But Lan Guangfu still looked at Lan Yunyi tenderly, without even giving her a look.
Why?!
The person who should be tortured should obviously be Lan Yunyi! It should be that bitch!
Lan Yunyi took away her brother's love for her and the old miracle doctor she knew. Not only did she have to take care of her grandmother for Lan Yunyi, but she also had to be tortured for Lan Yunyi!
Why? Why on earth?!
Lan Wanru stared hard. If eyes could kill, she would have stabbed Lan Yunyi full of holes at this moment.
If she could survive...if she could survive...
She was going to cut Lan Yunyi into pieces!
“Ahhhhh——”
The officer just lifted the board and hit her hard on her back and tail vertebrae. The board made a dull sound when it hit her flesh.
The dense pain instantly spread to all limbs and bones.
Lan Wanru clenched her teeth, tears welled up unconsciously, and her whole body couldn't help but tremble.
Again and again.
Lan Yunyi sat on the chair, looking motionless at the blood dripping all over her body, but her heart was as calm as a pool of stagnant water.
There was no secret joy or secret pleasure.
Because this is the retribution she deserves.
Even if he dies, he deserves it.
"Fourteen...fifteen..."
The yamen officer kept counting, and Lan Wanru's face turned pale, with cold sweat dripping all over her body, and her swollen eyelids drooped feebly, as if she was about to lose consciousness.
Lan Yunyi lowered her eyes. Perhaps she remembered herself in her previous life, or perhaps she felt that the smell of blood on the tip of her nose was too unpleasant.
She stood up silently and walked out.
Lan Yunyi originally thought that she would sneak out without anyone noticing and no one would notice.
But after she went out, Old Man Bu, Taoist Ling Chen and his party also followed her and left.
Lan Guangfu looked deeply at Lan Yunyi's back, gritted his teeth, and chased after him.
Chu Huan, Princess Zhaoyang and all the ladies watched the old miracle doctor leave and followed him out.
"Hey, don't pull me down!" Gu Rong casually placed the washbasin on the ground and hurriedly chased after him.
As the washbasin fell to the floor and made a clanging sound, the originally bustling courtroom suddenly became empty and became eerily silent.
The quiet Lan Wanru could hear the sound of the wooden board hitting her own flesh and bones. Her lower body was almost unconscious, and her soul was slowly withdrawing from her body.
She originally expected Lan Yunyi to stand arrogantly in front of her, watching her being tortured, feeling proud and condescending.
But who would have thought that Lan Yunyi didn't even bother to look at her, and even left her with all the stars in her arms. This was a naked humiliation, and she didn't take her seriously at all...
Lan Wanru bit her lip and drew blood.
————————————
Lan Yunyi didn't take a few steps when she felt someone was following her. When she turned around, she saw Old Man Bu taking out many pills from his cloth bag.
"Silly girl, she is the cause of her own misfortune. Don't feel bad for her." Old Man Bu seemed to sense her bad mood. After stuffing the pills into her arms, he rubbed the back of her head.
"Eat more, take more supplements, and you should be fatter!" Old Man Bu smiled.
Holding the heavy pills in her arms, Lan Yunyi finally felt that the world in front of her was more real. She raised a smile to Old Man Bu, and just as she was about to speak, she saw Lan Guangfu chasing after him in a hurry.
"Yun Yi..." Lan Guangfu called her hastily, and then remained silent for a long time.
"Go home with your brother..." Lan Guangfu's voice suddenly weakened, with some hidden humility, "I know you are not having a good time outside these days."
"What happened in the past was that my brother misunderstood you...I will uphold justice for you just like today, and I will never dare to bully you again."
Lan Guangfu has never said anything soft or shown weakness to others in his life. This is the first time he has apologized to others.
He thought of his performance in court just now...
Although he was a little behind in the front, he still supported Yunyi in the back and asked Mr. Lin to handle the matter fairly.
After he makes up for his mistakes, Yunyi probably won't blame him and will forgive him, right? This chapter has been completed!
