He would not kill her now until his granddaughter woke up.
Tian Ya glanced at Liu Yi, who was still kowtowing in front of him.
He did not stop him and simply said coldly, “Your kowtowing shouldn’t be to plead for Feng Lianyi, but… You should reserve it until my precious granddaughter has woken up.”
Liu Yi’s body stiffened. He raised his head, and his face was covered in blood. His eyes were filled with grievance.
“General, Maiden Lianyi…”
“Shut up!”
Tian Ya kicked him down violently and stepped on his chest, expressionlessly. “You still have the heart to plead for others. Do you think I will forgive you for your crimes?”
Liu Yi trembled as he slowly closed his eyes…
The cold moonlight poured in from the door, illuminating his pale face.
The banquet hall was silent.
After a moment of silence, Liu Yi opened his eyes and said, “General, I’ve violated the military rules, released the soul without permission, and mistakenly injured the young lady. I deserve to die, but I’m begging General to spare Maiden Lianyi’s life. You can beat her or drive her out of the manor, but please… Spare her life…”
Feng Lianyi had lost her arm; even if she was really at fault for this, she had paid the price.
It should be enough…
“My granddaughter is still unconscious. Why should I let the person who hurt her go?”
His granddaughter, who should be the noblest person in General Manor and beloved by thousands of people, but… She had been harmed to such an extent by a servant girl!
It was all because of him!
He should not have been so kind to bring Feng Lianyi into General Manor.
“General, if what Maiden Lianyi says is true… What if Feng Ruqing…”
No!
Before he could finish his sentence, Liu Yi felt something strangling him, making it difficult to breathe.
The pressure in his chest began to increase, and it seemed like his heart might stop beating at any time.
“I don’t think my granddaughter is at fault. Besides, I trust my granddaughter.”
Even a wild wolf knew how to protect its pups, more so him.
No one had the right to criticize his granddaughter. He did not think that Feng Ruqing would frame Feng Lianyi.
How would he be fit to be her grandfather if he did not even trust her?
“Liu Yi, you better pray that Xiao Qing will be safe and sound. Otherwise, I’ll make you suffer for the rest of your life!”
Liu Yi recoiled in horror, spitting a mouthful of blood. The pressure just now had broken his bones, and he could not even straighten his back. His eyes were filled with horror…
***
Inside the manor.
The moonlight was clear and cold.
Feng Ruqing, dressed in red, was lying quietly on the bed. She was frowning, perhaps due to pain.
Qing Zhu was dumbfounded as it looked at the bed, turning stiffly to the man next to it. “Master, what happened to Princess?”
‘This couple has left me in the manor and gone out to watch a good show but returned with Princess unconscious?’
Nan Xian ignored Qing Zhu. He brushed Feng Ruqing’s hair and stroked her pale face as grief and anger filled his eyes.
He felt sad because of Feng Ruqing…
At the same time, he was pissed at everyone in General Manor!
Slowly, the man lowered his head and kissed her lips.
