Kick out the general as soon as you are reborn

The bailiff took the court stick and hit Zhao San with it again and again without waiting for Zhao San to react. He showed no mercy at all. Every time he hit with the stick, it brought up some blood, and the stick was stained blood red.

not long

Zhao San cried out in pain, tears streaming down his face. His body was covered in blood, which spread to the bluestone on the ground, turning it dark red.

Whenever the yamen runners saw that Zhao San showed signs of fainting, they would pour salt water on his wound with a clay bowl to wake him up from the pain. “Zhao San, please bear with it. I don’t want to be like this either. The rules require that one must be awake during the punishment. Please don’t make it difficult for me.”

Zhao San cried out in pain and banged his forehead on the wooden bench again and again, but it was of no use.

The yamen runners didn't hold back at all. Instead, they deflected the blow because of his struggle and hit him hard again. "Don't move. If you move, I'll hit you again."

Zhao San was in so much pain that tears were streaming down his face. He felt extremely regretful and said to himself, "If I had known this would happen, I would have beaten him to death rather than touching Li Mei! It hurts so much, it's killing me."

When the bailiff brought down the last blow of the stick, Zhao San fainted once again and collapsed on the wooden bench like a dead pig, without any reaction at all.

He was slapped hard several times by the yamen runners, but he didn't react at all.

Liu Yanyan felt nauseous when she saw the bloody mess. She covered her nose with a handkerchief to block out the strong smell of blood. Only then did she feel better after smelling the fragrance from the handkerchief.

Lord Gao had been watching coldly, and only spoke again after Zhao San's execution was completed, "Immediately, take Zhao San out of the South Gate and send him to the city gate, along with the other exiled prisoners. Don't waste time."

After he finished speaking, several yamen runners untied the ropes on Zhao San, tied him up with iron chains, and dragged him out of the city, leaving a long trail of blood.

The people watching nearby were so frightened that they took several steps back.

"This beating is too harsh. He fainted several times. He is being exiled now! Will he survive?"

"I don't think they will survive. Many died on the road to exile. One more or one less doesn't matter."

"Master Gao has really made up his mind this time. He is going to exile me right away!"

"What else? Arrange for the officers to send him there alone!"

"He's not worth it! And he's been arranged separately!"

"Look at this blood! Zhao San, don't even think about going to Ningguta. It's hard for him to even make it to the city gate alive."

"That's impossible. The guards know how to control their actions. They will definitely hand the victim over to the officials alive. But once we get out of the city gate, whether we can survive or not is another matter."

"I dare not look at it anymore. The blood on the ground is scary. I should go home to accompany my wife and children! No matter how beautiful the woman outside is, I dare not look at her! I don't want to be beaten."

"That's right! Go home and stop thinking about other people's wives!"

"Go home, go home, home is the best place! No one can bear to be beaten like this."

"Let's go, go back and take good care of your husband. If he is exiled, how will the family live?"

"That's right! Go back and take good care of your husband!"

"Let's go home. We have seen enough of this excitement. Let's go home."

"That's right! Go home, go home. Other people's homes are not as good as ours."

Liu Yanyan saw the crowd rustling away below the stage, then she walked down the stage slowly and headed towards the carriage.

Zhang, the chief, stood at the foot of the platform, forcing a forced smile and flattering, "Greetings to the princess, I will escort you to the government office, so as not to disturb you."

Liu Yanyan looked at his flattering face and couldn't help but frown. She refused to speak, "Master Zhang, you are too polite. I have several guards here. There is no need to trouble Master Zhang. Master Zhang is still injured and should rest more." After that, she walked straight to the carriage and stepped on the stool to get on.

After watching the princess get on the carriage, Lord Zhang looked at the gauze on his body, sighed secretly, and then turned around and sat in his own simple sedan chair carried by two people.

General Fu, who was leading his horse into the city, looked at Yanyan in her official uniform with deep love in his eyes. He lowered his head to look at the dust on his body, tugged at his armor uncomfortably, stopped abruptly, and muttered to himself, "Yanyan, I knew you were different. I've only been away for a short time, and you've become an official already. That's amazing. It seems I have to propose marriage to the Duke as soon as possible, otherwise if people discover your beauty, it will be even more difficult to marry you. I must bring you home as soon as possible."

The servant Xiangshun stood beside him, covered in dust, muttering, "Master, let's go back home! I really want to take a bath. I can't stand being away for several months."

General Fu finally came back to his senses, looked at the carriage going away, and smiled brightly, "Let's go back to the mansion and have a good meal." I'll visit the Duke's Mansion later, Duke.

Xiangshun was so happy that he carried his bag and walked in front, jumping and skipping, his face full of joy.

In the government office, Liu Yanyan looked at the files on the table and couldn't help asking, "Liu Wu, how is the princess now?"

Liu Wu bowed and replied, "The princess is much better now. She has returned to the princess's mansion. All the people in the mansion have been replaced. She is being kept in the mansion every day."

Liu Yanyan held her shoulders and said, "As long as the princess is in good health, my work won't be in vain." After that, she continued to look at the file in her hand, thinking in her heart, "Why do so many women who are not living a satisfactory life still dare not come to divorce."

At noon

Liu Yanyan was still sorting out the files when she heard Liu Wu report, "Princess, housekeeper Zhou brought you a food box."

Liu Yanyan then put down the wolf-hair brush in her hand, raised her head and said, "Please let Butler Zhou in."

As soon as he finished speaking, Butler Zhou came in with a large food box and bowed, "Greetings to the princess."

Liu Yanyan waved her hand and said, "Butler Zhou, please stand up! There are no outsiders here, so no need to be polite."

Steward Zhou said with a smile, "This is what the prince asked the kitchen to prepare for you. There is fresh matsutake mushrooms picked today, stewed chicken soup, white fungus porridge, freshly wrapped shrimp dumplings, and tender leafy vegetables that have just been picked. Please try them and see if they suit your taste." After saying that, he arranged all the dishes one by one.

Liu Yanyan then stood up and walked to the dining table. She washed the ink off her hands with the hot water brought by Liu Wu. She wiped off the water stains before picking up the spoon and tasting the chicken soup. She thought to herself, "What is this prince doing? He is not going to send me away just for a meal."

Butler Zhou was relieved when he saw the princess having her meal. Fortunately, the princess had a good temper.

Liu Yanyan picked up the crystal clear shrimp dumplings on the table, picked up one, dipped it in vinegar, and put it in her mouth. The delicious and tender taste made her nod her head and say, "Well, the chef's cooking skills are getting better and better. Remember to go back and give the chef some money as a reward."

Butler Zhou quickly responded "Yes", "Princess, as long as you like it, it is his blessing to serve you."

Liu Yanyan slowly finished her shrimp dumplings and a bowl of chicken soup, then picked up a handkerchief to wipe the corners of her mouth.

Butler Zhou tactfully removed the food and placed them in the food boxes one by one, then bowed and said, "I'll take my leave."
