Chapter 44 Forty lashes for one life

When Xiao Yunting heard the words "asking to come down", anger rushed to his forehead: "Ha, Shen Qinghuan, it's too late for you to regret it now."

Shen Qinghuan didn't say anything, but just looked at Xiao Yunting's eyes, looking at the anger rising in them, threatening to burn people.

Yes, it's too late, after all, my sweetheart is already engaged.

"Then what does the prince want?"

Xiao Yunting glanced at Xu Zihan, and then at Shen Qinghuan who was standing in front of him: "I don't have to kill her with the rod, but if the slave does not do well, it means that the master has not taught her well. If you want to take responsibility for her, How about asking for forty lashes...?"

Shen Qinghuan subconsciously reached out and wiped his arm.

There were still traces of the last lash there.

After a while, he said calmly: "Okay."

As soon as this word came out, everyone was shocked on the spot.

Xu Zihan, Xu Ziyan, Xiao Yunting and a group of guards.

Xu Zihan was the first to come to his senses. He struggled out of the guard's hands and knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, it's my fault. It's my fault. You shouldn't talk nonsense. I'm willing to ask for eighty lashes. Please let me go." The princess!"

Xu Ziyan also knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, it was Ziyan who failed to discipline his sister well. Ziyan was also at fault. He is willing to receive forty lashes himself. Please also ask Your Majesty not to punish the princess."

The guards looked at each other.

They all hated Shen Qinghuan before, because Shen Qinghuan was ugly, but he forced his prince to put a flower on the cow dung.

Moreover, I didn’t know what to do after arriving at the mansion.Ever since Miss Bai moved into the palace, she has been making trouble all day long, making the palace uneasy, so she became even more disgusted with her.

But... a master who is willing to accept punishment for his slaves makes servants like them really dislike him.

Xiao Yunting's eyes never looked at anyone else from beginning to end, and kept staring at Shen Qinghuan: "Are you sure you want to accept the punishment of this king for a slave?"

Shen Qinghuan looked at Xiao Yunting calmly: "Yes."

Things like whips will only make people's skin and flesh bruise, which is extremely painful, but will not hurt their lives.

Besides, she had snow cream in her hand, so no matter how hard she was hit, she would slowly recover later.

Forty lashes for one life...she earned it.

Xiao Yunting smiled in vain. His smile was both dangerous and terrifying: "Okay, okay, Shen Qinghuan, this is all of your own accord. Someone, take her down and give her forty lashes!"

The captain of the guard took the order, looked at Shen Qinghuan and said, "Princess, please come with us." This time, no one stepped forward to catch her.

Shen Qinghuan walked over.

Xu Zihan's face was full of anger and unwillingness: "Your Majesty, this slave is wrong. I am willing to accept the punishment myself. I also ask your Majesty to be noble and do not attack the Princess!"

As she spoke, she rushed towards Shen Qinghuan, tears finally falling from her resolute eyes. In the slave market, even when faced with life and death, she never shed tears.

She tightly grasped Shen Qinghuan's sleeves: "Princess, Zihan is wrong. It was Zihan who implicated you. Let Zihan be punished. Even if he is killed with a stick, Zihan will admit it."

Shen Qinghuan looked at this pretty face and reached out to gently wipe away her tears: "Okay, it's just forty lashes, you won't die. Just wait in my room and take care of me when I come back... "

After saying that, he withdrew his hand.

In Xu Zihan's eyes, it was her recklessness that made Xiao Yunting furious and wanted to punish her.But she understood that the person Xiao Yunting really disliked was herself. If Xu Zihan hadn't been hers, he wouldn't have killed him just because of her few words.

After all, this root is all within me, and I cannot escape or hide from it.

"Ziyan, watch Zihan carefully and take her back to the room!"

Xu Ziyan immediately stepped forward and hugged her sister tightly, as if she was worried that if she let go, she would run away and do something she shouldn't do: "Zihan, let's listen to the princess."

Xu Zihan's tears fell down and he looked at Shen Qinghuan who left with the guards and murmured: "Zihan knew he was wrong..."

Xu Ziyan hugged her sister tightly again.

Xiao Yunting glanced at the two of them, rolled up his sleeves and left.

In the yard, Shen Qinghuan was caned again.

The captain of the guard held the whip and was silent for a while: "Princess, I'm sorry."

Shen Qinghuan did not speak, gritting his teeth slightly.

Forty lashes in exchange for one life is a very good deal.But when the whip hits my body, the pain is real... I was pretending to be cool just now, but now I'm going to be whipped, and I'm still a little scared.

Seeing that she didn't speak, the captain of the guard said no more and took the whip and whipped it.Only this time, unlike the previous guards who vented their hatred and slapped fiercely, the captain of the guard deliberately relaxed his force and said: "Ah, one, two, three, four..."

The guard next to him was stunned for a moment: "Captain, you must have counted wrongly just now. There were obviously three blows, but you counted four!"

The captain of the guard was stunned and roared: "What, you mean this captain can't count?"
