Geng Wenzhong was even more excited, his limbs trembling with excitement. He took a step forward and fawned: "Young Master Li, you are in my humble abode, I hope you didn't get too startled. Are you feeling hungry or thirsty? I'll immediately order the kitchen to prepare your favorite dishes."
This Lord Geng, even when dealing with Pei Tan, his true superior, did not show such humility and subservience.
Li Xiu seemed to have regained his senses after seeing Geng Wenzhong, and his eyes gradually cleared up as he slowly scanned the room. His gaze suddenly fixed on Jing Yuane!
Jing Wan'er wore a red wedding dress, which was really too eye-catching. At this moment, the clothes suddenly triggered Li Xiuzhi's memories before he fainted!
Jing Waner at this time, simply calm as usual.
After all, at this time, Pei Tan was still standing beside her, it wasn't just her alone, what's there to be afraid of.
Pei Tan also looked at the awakened Li Xiuzhe, this young master of the Zhaojun Li family, who was the most famous in Chang'an for his numerous romantic conquests and the many women he had won over.
Li Xiu's eyes were bloodshot, and he stared at Jing Yuanner word by word: "It was you... you, this cheap woman!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Xi suddenly kicked off the quilt and rushed straight at Jing Wanyu!
"How dare you harm me? I'll kill you!" Greed and malice in his eyes, how could there be a woman in this world who dares to escape his grasp?
Geng Wenzhong was directly stunned by this sudden change, and the concubines beside him screamed and were frightened to the point of not knowing how to react.
Jing Wan'er watched as Li Xiu pounced towards her, but she didn't move a muscle until he stretched out his hand and was about to grab her face.
But before he could even touch Jing Yuanyuan, Pei Tan had already swiftly stretched out his hand and pulled her behind him.
Pei Tan's voice was still gentle and calm, but with a hint of coldness. To openly harm someone in front of the Grand Master of the Temple of Great Benevolence, did he think he was above the law?
"This case originally didn't belong to the Temple of Great Justice, but if you harm Wan'er, I won't ignore this matter."
I've long heard that the young master of the Li family is arrogant and lawless, this kind of arrogance is simply infuriating. Compared to the former Zong Huo, he surpasses him in every way.
Geng Wenzhong hastily rushed over: "Young Master Li, you've just woken up, please calm down!"
Geng Wenzhong was really frightened to death at this moment, Li Xiu had a three-long and two-short, which meant he had offended the Li family, and his ending would be very miserable. But if he offended the Pei family..., his ending would still be very miserable!
Geng Wenzhong quickly fell from his earlier ecstasy back into a state of desperate anxiety.
Jing Wan'er and Li Xiu locked eyes, she didn't show any fear at all, instead a hint of mockery curled up at the corner of her mouth. What is a spoiled brat? It's someone who has just been pulled back from the gates of hell, and their true nature is revealed.
The concubines' faces turned pale and they trembled with fear, conditioned reflexively begging for mercy: "Li Lang, don't be angry..."
"Are you the Duke of Dali? Do you think I'm afraid of you?" Li Xiu's face turned ferocious, "I know who you are, you're that jinx from the Pei family. How dare you speak to me like this..."
Chancellor Wei Xuanzhen was very respectful to them, the Li family. The Grand Justice Temple was just a third-grade official, what's the big deal?
As for the Pei family, haha, a family from Guanzhong Hedong Prefecture, no matter how powerful they are, what can they do? Dare to confront him in front of the Li family in the capital?
Geng Wenzhong was even more frightened, although he called himself the Plague God, but who dared to shout "Plague God" in front of Pei Tan? Li Xiufor thought that this was Ghost Gate Pass just came back and wanted to go again?
Pei Tan's eyes were dim and his face was still expressionless as he stared at Li Xiuzhi: "You try?"
Li Xiuyi, if you dare to try it out, just make a move in front of the Dalit Temple Lord, and the Dalit Temple can directly capture people.
Li Xiu had a sly smile on his face and glared at Jing Yuane: "You wretch, how did you harm me? Speak up."
Jing Wan'er looked at him, Li Xiu's eyebrows had that black air again, as if it was gathering between his eyebrows once more. She spoke lightly: "It's your own chronic illness that's binding you, no one is harming you."
In the public hall, Jing Wanyi also said so. Everything was Li Xiu's fault for being ill and blaming others.
Li Xiu was suddenly furious, defeated by a woman's hand and humiliated by her, all for the first time in his life.
Li Xiu was so angry at this moment that he couldn't bear to tear apart the beautiful face in front of him.
A beautiful person, if they cannot be possessed by me, would rather perish from this world.
"Geng Wenzhong, I order you to capture this wretched woman and lock her up with that Fan Ziyu. I want them to go down to hell together!" Li Xiu said with a ferocious expression.
Geng Wenzhong's heart was racing and his flesh was trembling, he didn't dare to move. Should he let him arrest someone? Or should he do it in front of Pei Tan and so many people.
He wanted to persuade: "Young Master Li, you have just recovered..."
Geng Wenzhong's face was twisted by a punch before he could finish speaking.
Li Xi vented his anger on Geng Wentong, which shows that normally this legitimate son of the Zhaojun Li family didn't take Geng Wentong as a person, but just like a dog, also dared to point fingers at him.
Geng Wenzhong covered his nose, his hands full of blood, but he didn't dare make a sound.
Li Xiu turned his head and stared at Jing Yuane, "You wench, this young master wants you to understand what kind of consequences it will bring if you offend this young master."
He wants everyone in this world who dares to resist him, the Zhao Jun Li family, to know what it's like to be unable to live or die.
Jing Wan'er gazed at him, still with that hint of a smirk on her lips. "You're already beyond cure, you won't live more than three months."
Her fate is of no concern, what's most important is his fate, which everyone can see.
This bully must have threatened Fan Ziyu and Shi Wan in the same way, putting Fan Ziyu in jail was also to let him know what would happen if he offended him.
"You will pay with your life! You must die before I do!"
His last shred of sanity gone, he pounced on Jing Wanyan once again.
The concubines had just gone through a life-and-death experience, from crying to being affectionate, and before they could adjust to the change in expression, they saw Li Lang ignoring them completely.
Li Xiu's eyes were fixed on the person wearing a red wedding dress.
The only woman he ever saw was Jing Wan'er. Li Xiu had been a romantic all his life, but when did he fall into the hands of a woman?
Li Xiu had gone completely mad. Despite standing beside Pei Tan, Jing Wanyu still subconsciously took a step back with her feet.
She took a glance at Pei Tan.
Pei didn't react at all, he just stood still at the door.
But just as Li Xiuxiu was sneering and thought she had caught Jing Wanyu.
A gleaming large knife had appeared like a ghost, and was stuck to Li Xiufeng's neck.
A chill ran down his spine, like a summons from hell. Li Xiu's limbs turned icy in an instant, and he was already timid and afraid of death, now scared to the point of almost dying.
The sword-wielding Baili guard's eyes were cold: "How dare you, attacking the Grand Master of Dalit Temple."
Jing Wan'er and Pei Tan were standing very close, so when Li Xiu rushed towards Jing Wan'er, he was also rushing towards Pei Tan. And as the county guard of Pei, his duty was to eliminate anyone who threatened Pei Tan immediately.
Li Xiu's eyes were fixed on the knife at his neck, pressed right against his Adam's apple, not just intimidating him, but really wanting to kill him...
"You, you dare!" Li Xiu's mouth was still numb, and he was still immersed in his own self-important dream. "You dogs, how dare you treat this young master like this?"
Pei Tan looked at him and still said those three words: "You try."
Bai's guard knife moved an inch closer, coldly staring at Li Xiu: "Withdraw immediately and keep a distance of one zhang from the master."
Within a zhang, it's considered a threat. Geng Wenzhong was suddenly awakened from his dream and saw Li Xiu being pointed at by a sharp knife. His knees softened and he knelt down: "Lord Pei, please calm your anger! Lord Pei, Temple Master! Don't kill Young Master Li!"
He forgot that at that time, Zong Hui and Pei Tan were not yet in a position where they could kill someone just by saying so.
Geng Wenzhong only now realized that the person in front of him was the plague god whom all of Chang'an feared.
Even Zong Chuke, the Minister of War who relied on Wei's power, was defeated by Pei Tan. He was just a small Jingzhao governor, what kind of ability did he have to dare make Pei Tan unhappy?
Geng Wenzhong knelt down and kowtowed, begging for mercy. The thudding sound of his head hitting the ground made people's hearts skip a beat.
"Spare your life, Lord Pei..."
"Pei Tan gazed at him lightly: 'Do you know what the consequences are of openly attacking an imperial official?'"
Geng WenZhong as the Metropolitan Governor of Jingzhao, handled so many cases, and must have been very familiar with the laws of the Tang Dynasty.
"Li Gongzi has just woken up and is still dazed... I beg Your Excellency Pei Siqing to show mercy and spare Li Gongzi this once."
Li Xiu'er didn't take it kindly and scolded: "Geng Wenzhong! You dog! What qualifications do you have to speak of this young master?"
It's just a dog raised by Li, today he can make him the governor of Beijing, tomorrow he can make him roll out and become a beggar.
Geng Wenzhong no longer cared about being scolded, he knelt on the ground, "Young Master Li, don't provoke Pei Sizong again, you...you forgot about the Lian family father and son..."
Who dares to provoke Pei Tan in the capital? It's said that even Emperor Zhongzong himself tacitly approves of all Pei Tan's actions...
At this scene, Jing Wanyu's complexion also changed slightly.
Pei Tan's eyes were dim, and at this time Fang said: "Pei County, let him go."
The knife in Pei Shuaiwei's hand slowly turned and left Li Xiuzhe's neck.
Suddenly, the heavy breathing of five or six people in the room. Li Xiu sat on the ground with a thud, his timid appearance was so comical.
Pei Tan's eyes were dim and deep, looking at Li Xiuzhi, "The Zhaojun Li family has a profound foundation, but it does not mean that any of the Li family's children can be overshadowed by this big tree. If you are reckless and lawless, no matter how big the tree is, there will come a day when it cannot cover you."
The threat in these words made Geng Wen Zhong break out in a cold sweat.
He kept kowtowing and said: "Thank you, Temple Master, for your great kindness. Today's matter, I will personally come to apologize at your doorstep..."
"Let's stop here for today," said Pei Tan.
Geng Wenzhong was taken aback for a moment, and he never thought that Pei Tan would take the initiative to say forget it. He was overjoyed: "Yes, yes, thank you, Temple Master!"
Pei Tan continued in a low and mysterious tone: "I've taken Jing Wanyu away." He couldn't possibly let Jing Wanyu stay in this gloomy place.
Geng Wenzhong's whole body shook, and he didn't dare say "no" again.
Everything started with this woman and it was also her who designed and insisted on finding Pei Tan to come over. This mysterious new bride who replaced Shi Wan, what kind of identity does she have?
If he wasn't mistaken, Geng Wenzhong had already guessed the identity of this woman.
"You can't leave!" Li Xiu was still furious, gritting his teeth and staring at Jing Yuanyu as he shouted incessantly. "This wicked woman has ruined me, I'll make her pay with her life!"
Geng Wenzhong blocked Li Xiuzhi's way, "You're courting death, aren't you? Pei Tan has already made his move, and he doesn't want to let Li Xiuzhi seek death again. Didn't the previous words make it clear? If he continues to be reckless, even the powerful Zhaojun Li family won't be able to protect him."
