She was indeed too tired, and she persisted motionless for several hours, completely adopting the strategy of not moving the enemy, not moving, and if the enemy moved, I would run, and it was a great luck in misfortune to be able to hold on until Mu Jiuxiao came.

"Cloud Falling?"

He patted her on the cheek, called to her, and picked her up.

Looking at her sleeping in her arms, her face was full of exhaustion, fear was not gone, anger was born from her heart, and then burst out from her eyes.

The terrifying eyes shot fiercely at the few people who followed behind them, Xiao Yingzi, Mu Er, Mu Yun, Mu Jin, the four of them stood upright and lowered their heads, they knew that their end was coming.

Mu Jiuxiao carried Lin Ling'er all the way back to Luocuixuan, followed by a team of people, and the tall back brought out a powerful aura, which made people dare not breathe.

Put Lin Ling'er on the bed in the east room, pull the quilt over and cover it, he turned around and walked out of the house.

In the courtyard, Mu Er, Xiao Yingzi, Mu Yun, and Mu Jin knelt in a row facing the east chamber, waiting for the departure.

Mu Jiuxiao stood with his back to them, and after a long time, his dull voice sounded in the courtyard:

"Tell me, what do you want me to do with you?"

The four of them knew that they were derelict in their duties, they didn't take good care of the princess, and the last time Mu Er broke off his hand, although it could be seen that the prince did it intentionally, although the punishment was too heavy, but the rules are the rules, no one dared to overstep them, and no one dared to violate them.

Mu Er and Xiao Yingzi have a very strong relationship with Lin Ling'er, and now that the princess is frightened by this, the two of them are distressed and blame themselves.

The courtyard was so quiet that a pin could be heard, and after thinking for a moment, Mu Er said stiffly:

"We will listen to the master's fate, even if we ask for the life of the slave, the slave will never say anything."

Xiao Yingzi looked at Mu Er with tears, bit her lip and said:

"Master, the slave is a useless person, he did not serve a good lady, the husband is a martial arts person, and he may be able to help the master in the future, if the master does not dislike it, let the slave and the maid be punished instead of the husband, beg the master to take the slave's life, leave the husband to serve the master, master, the slave and the maid please......"

As she spoke, she burst into tears.

Mu Yun and Mu Jin also received punishments from Mu Jiuxiao.

Mu Jiuxiao stood in place all the time, his voice did not move, and after a while, he only heard him say:

"You know only one thing, but you don't know the other."

With that, he suddenly turned around and looked at the four of them,

"You only know that it is your responsibility to protect Madame, but you don't know how important this woman is to me!"

After a pause, he continued,

"I don't want to lose any of you, but the country has its own laws, and the government has its own rules, this time fortunately, Madame is fine, if she is unfortunately lost or killed, none of you can afford it."

He stretched out his hand to Mutu, who gave him his whip,

"Today, I will reward each of you with twenty lashes, and I want you to remember that in my mansion, nothing is more important than the life of my wife!"

When the words fell, he pressed the mechanism on the horsewhip, only to hear the sound of "pop", and the soft horsewhip immediately showed rows of barbs, thorns with hooks, such twenty whips, only the skin and flesh were broken.

It was the first time for Xiao Yingzi to see such a horsewhip, and she couldn't help but tremble with fright, and her little face was as white as paper.

"Who's coming first?"

Mu Jiuxiao clenched the horsewhip and asked in a deep voice.

As the only man in this, Moore stepped forward and said:

"Slaves are willing to be punished."

Mu Jiuxiao walked in front of Mu Er, his eyebrows tightened, he didn't want to hurt the innocent for the sake of Yun Allure City, but it backfired, he could only say sorry in his heart.

The whip was raised high, and when it fell, it was inevitable that the skin would open and the flesh would bloom.

At this critical moment, there was a sudden bang in the east wing, and Mu Jiuxiao's horse whip stopped in mid-air.

"Stop!"

Immediately after, Lin Ling'er's voice came from inside.

The door of the east chamber opened, and Lin Ling'er stumbled out holding on to the door frame.

Regardless of thirty-seven twenty-one, holding Mu Jiuxiao's arm, he began to snatch the horsewhip in his hand.

"Give me the whip...... Ah......h

Before the whip arrived, I heard her scream.

Mu Jiuxiao saw that she wanted to snatch the whip, but as soon as she raised her hand slightly, the barb of the whip accidentally scratched her palm.

He couldn't help but subconsciously throw away the whip in his hand, grabbed her hand and brought it to his eyes, and in the delicate palm, a half-inch-long blood hole had been cut, and the blood flowed.

"Are you crazy? Do you know that if this barb scrapes a little deeper, your hand will be useless! ”

Mu Jiuxiao roared, his eyes full of fire.

Lin Ling'er pushed him away, but she almost fainted with a stumble under her feet, and Mu Tu behind her stepped out in time to help her.

"Madame, you have just come to your senses, beware ......"

As soon as Mu Tu's words came out, what Mu Jiuxiao had was like an icy look.

Mutu shrank his hand in fright, and stood back where he was.

"You're crazy! When I heard you say these words in the room just now, I thought I was dreaming, but when I really woke up, this qiē turned out to be true! ”

Lin Ling'er roared regardless of it,

"They are all my people, they follow me every day to take care of me and protect me, how can you scold and beat me whenever you want?"

"If it's wrong, it should be punished, this is the rule of my house."

Mu Jiuxiao had a cold face and stood upright, like an insurmountable iceberg.

"Rules? Your uncle's rules! This is not your house, they are all my people, and my people will be dealt with by my rules, and you don't need to care! ”

The four people who were kneeling were in a cold sweat, Princess, you are at war with the prince again, who will win this time?

The princess is too bad to give the princess face, if the princess loses, it is difficult to guarantee that the prince will not blame them, and their lives can be saved?

"Your people?"

Mu Jiuxiao sneered,

"Even you are my people, where are your people here?"

"You ......"

Lin Ling'er blushed anxiously, she was unwilling to break the rules of this ancient time, she was unwilling!

"It's not their fault for this matter, it's me who went out and didn't sue them, I deliberately didn't want to take them, if you have to pick a bone in the egg, then this matter is my fault in the final analysis, if you want to punish me, it's okay to punish me, it has nothing to do with them, let them go!"

Mu Jiuxiao seemed to have expected her to be like this, and her deep eyes flashed with a hint of cunning.

Seeing that he was silent, Lin Ling'er said hurriedly:

"Aren't you going to whip it?"

She picked up the terrible horsewhip from the ground and handed it to Mu Jiuxiao, this horsewhip was too terrifying, he wouldn't really hit it, right?

Although she was beating the drums in her heart, she still stubbornly said:

"It's good for you to beat me alone, anyway, if you go down with one whip, it is estimated that I will have a blood flower on my body, and if I go down with two whips, I will not be far from death......"

Speaking of this, she snorted twice, looked at him defiantly, and spoke from between her teeth,

"Anyway, I'm dead, and when you have that seizure, you won't need me to serve, and you can find whoever you want when the time comes, but I don't know if I can use it......"

Speaking of this, Mu Jiuxiao covered her mouth and glared at her with raised eyebrows.

Lin Ling'er didn't care about this, she raised her eyebrows at him with her eyes, and raised her eyebrows, what does that mean, if you dare to smoke me, I will tell you all your secrets.

Mu Jiuxiao really regretted telling her this secret, what he drank with her that day was not wine, he was simply poured ecstasy soup by her.

"Your people, I'll leave it to you."

He looked her in the eye and gritted his teeth as if he wanted to bite her to death, and then walked into the main room alone, slamming the door slammed.

“YES！”

Lin Ling'er is really hilarious, she won again, and it is really tried and tested to use this secret to blackmail him.

The four of them were still kneeling, looking at Lin Ling'er, their eyes full of gratitude and admiration.

Xiao Yingzi cried even more fiercely because she was moved, looking at Lin Ling'er's bleeding palm, she was so distressed.

"Madame, your hand ......"

How is it good that such a beautiful hand will leave a scar in the future?

Just now, she was just arguing with Mu Jiuxiao, Lin Ling'er forgot about the injury on her hand, and only then did she remember it when she heard Xiao Yingzi's reminder.

"Oops, it hurts......"

She furrowed her brow and grinned in pain.

"Madame's kindness, the minions do not forget, for the cattle and horses, at the behest of Madame."

All four of them bowed to the ground at the same time.

Lin Ling'er looked at the top of the four people's heads, rolled her eyes, and said:

"You four, you can avoid capital crimes, but you cannot escape living crimes. Don't look at me pleading for you in front of that iceberg man, but I still have to ask the four of you for the sins I suffered today. Let me think about how I will punish you......"

She hissed in pain, paced in front of the four of them, and when she saw the old plane tree in the yard, she couldn't help but have an idea,

"You four, go under that big tree, each of you will give me a handstand for twenty minutes, I have to let you taste the feeling of me squatting under the big tree today, motionless and deprived of oxygen to my brain!"

"Two, twenty minutes?"

Xiao Yingzi asked, obviously not understanding what this meant.

Lin Ling'er thought for a while and said:

"Oh...... Count yourself, 1,200 pieces, and that's it. ”

The four of them looked at each other, then nodded, and walked towards the old plane tree together.

Lin Ling'er sat on the steps in front of the east wing, looking at the bleeding palm, secretly distressed.

Li Huichun is not here, without his magical plaster, I don't know when this wound will heal, I'm afraid I will have to leave a scar.

"Damn violent man, why isn't it your hand that scratches, I will still care about you when you have a cold attack in the future......"

She muttered quietly, but she didn't notice that there was another person in the courtyard, and that was Mu Tou.

Don't look at Mu Tou's age, but he is deaf and clear-sighted, as if nothing can escape his eyes, Mu Jiuxiao handed over this courtyard to him to take care of alone, which can also be seen that Mu Jiuxiao trusts him.

Mu Tou stopped sweeping the floor, walked towards Lin Ling'er with a big broom, stood still in front of her, and looked her up and down, as if he knew her on the first day.
