They were in charge of being beautiful, and she was in charge of taking the hits.

Chapter 107 Killing the chicken to scare the monkey

"Where are these people? Haven't they arrived yet?"

The officials had already run over at top speed, and then knelt down at the door in unison, still panting and trying to calm their racing hearts.

"You, Zhang Lang, come in!"

Wu Chengye was pointing at someone and calling out to someone else. She couldn't remember the names of these officials at all. Both the person being pointed at and the person being called looked up, and she didn't know who should go in.

Wu Chengye clicked his tongue: "Both of them!" She didn't seem to feel the slightest bit guilty for remembering the wrong name. In her eyes, these people were nothing more than playthings, to be discarded once she was done with them and no longer wanted them.

The two men timidly stepped forward and knelt before Wu Chengye, but still managed to put on smiles: "Your Highness."

Wu Chengye's expression suddenly changed, and he kicked Zhang Langguan in the chest. Zhang Langguan cried out and fell to the ground, not understanding what he had done wrong.

"Why are you looking at me like that! Do you hate me? You didn't teach the master proper manners, so he still doesn't know how to serve people!"

Those kneeling outside the door all knew that Wu Chengye was making an example of them, showing their master what he was doing.

Sima Lingyu was well aware of Wu Chengye's purpose in doing this, but he was numb. Wu Chengye stood up, stomped his big foot on Zhang Langguan's chest, and kicked him hard. The room was silent, as if you could hear the sound of ribs breaking.

While begging for mercy, blood was still oozing from his mouth. When he saw the people outside, he quickly lowered his head, afraid of being called out again.

Wu Chengye kicked him twice more: "You can't even teach me rules, what use are you!"

"Spare me, Your Highness."

"Someone, bring me the knife."

It was one thing to just punch and kick, but this time they even used a knife. Soon, someone lowered their eyes and bent over to hand her a knife. Wu Chengye's eyes lit up as she held the small dagger in her hand, looking at it from left to right.

He looked at Sima Lingyu and sneered, "Watch closely!"

The attack was swift and ruthless; a knife plunged into the official's thigh, and a scream filled the room, while the others dared not even breathe.

Another knife was plunged into his arm. How was this any different from torture in prison? Zhang Langguan was still begging for mercy. Wu Chengye frowned and clicked his tongue, "Noisy!"

In front of everyone, they cut out his tongue. Those who were timid screamed in fright, some even turning pale and sweating profusely. Sima Mingming never expected that Wu Chengye would go so crazy.

She turned her head, her hands covered in blood, but smiled at Sima Lingyu: "If you don't learn the rules, they will all end up like this!"

"You're threatening me with their lives!"

"What threats are you talking about? I'm showing you what happens to those who don't follow the rules!"

Those people dared not get close to Sima Lingyu even more, and even the servants in the mansion dared not say more than a few words to him.

Wu Chengye casually tossed the dagger on the ground: "That's enough for today. If you resist again next time, or show any unwillingness, I don't mind doing it a few more times."

Those who had been summoned all dispersed, afraid to stay there for even a second longer. Even the bloodstains on the ground were quickly cleaned up, and the injured Zhang Langguan was dragged away. The room returned to the state where only the two of them were present.

Wu Chengye looked at the bloodstains on his hands and stared at Sima Lingyu with amusement: "Come here and clean it up for me."

Sima Lingyu took a towel that was always kept in the room and prepared to go over and wipe Wu Chengye's hands. Wu Chengye slapped his hand away hard, and a red mark was visibly visible on his hand.

"I said lick it clean!" She stared down at him, her eyes filled with pressure.

Sima Lingyu bent over, head bowed, eyes filled with tears, his lips slowly approaching her hand, when Wu Chengye shouted, "Kneel down!"

Sima Yi knelt down with a thud, holding her bloodied hands in his own, and slowly licked them clean. The blood was bitter, astringent, and fishy, ​​perhaps because his heart was filled with too much bitterness.

"Good boy, you'll serve me again tonight."

After Wu Chengye got bored with his antics, he left. After he left, Sima Lingyu collapsed and sat on the ground, tears streaming down her face. Lan'er saw all of this and clenched her fists inwardly. This was, after all, the second young master of the Prime Minister's mansion. How dare he treat their young master like this!

In a fit of anger, he ran out and returned to the Prime Minister's residence. The Prime Minister was in his study dealing with official business. When Lan'er ran to the gate of the Prime Minister's residence, the guard was familiar with him, after all, he often followed the Second Young Master.

"Lan'er, why are you back?"

"Sisters, please inform him that I wish to see the Prime Minister."

Seeing Lan'er's anxious expression, they assumed it was something urgent and let him in immediately.

He was quite familiar with the Prime Minister's residence and soon arrived at the Prime Minister's study. He knocked on the door and, after receiving permission to enter, knelt down in front of her.

"Master, you should really do something about the Second Young Master. He's been suffering terribly at the Second Prince's residence. In less than a month, he's already lost a lot of weight, and..."

"He is now a servant of the Second Prince's household." Sima Zongcheng was preoccupied with his own affairs and did not even glance at Lan'er kneeling on the ground.

"Master, the Second Prince, she..."

"What's up with her."

How could a man who had never experienced such a thing speak of it? Seeing that he hesitated to speak, Sima Zongcheng finally looked up at him.

His face turned bright red, and he couldn't utter a single word. She could probably guess what was going on, but since she was already married, there was no turning back, unless she could achieve great things.

"Go back and let him be patient; after all, he's already a husband."

Sima Zongcheng's resolute decision chilled Lan'er's heart. She had thought she could find some comfort here, even if it was just words, so that when she returned to tell her young master, he would have something to look forward to.

All they got was a basin of cold water.

Disheartened, after leaving the mansion, he did not return to Wu Chengye's residence, but went directly to Wu Ziyan's residence.

Although he knew he shouldn't go to the eldest son, he had grown up with Sima Lingyu since he was a child and couldn't bear to see him suffer like this.

But he didn't know that someone had been secretly following him ever since he left the mansion. When he went to Wu Ziyan's mansion and said that he was Sima Lingyu's servant, how could Mo Baiyun possibly let him in? He already had too many things to deal with and couldn't let Sima Lingchuan get involved in any more trouble.

"It's alright, you can go back now. Our master will definitely come to visit Master Lingyu."

"Please, brother, have mercy and let me see the eldest young master. Our second young master is probably not going to survive in that mansion."

Mo Baiyun squinted. How could this guy not know he had a tail following him? Letting him into the mansion, who knows what trouble he'll cause.
