Chapter 53: Things in Prince Jing'an's Mansion are not for outsiders to talk about
"Although I have bestowed the title of King Mu, I am also close to Uncle Jing'an, so there is no need to be restrained, Auntie!"

Zhao Mu walked forward and looked at Pei Nanwei, who looked aggrieved and a little timid, and couldn't help feeling sad.

As a member of a wealthy and powerful family, Pei Nanwei has no choice but to live in a miserable situation!
As a prince, I have no choice. Isn't this woman the same?

After the establishment of Liyang, it learned from the lessons of the previous dynasty and cleared out the power of the aristocratic families. Today, most of the aristocratic families in Liyang are in a precarious situation.

Unfortunately, Pei Nanwei was born into an aristocratic family.

In order to seek protection, her family married her to Jing'an King Zhao Heng.

Although Zhao Heng wanted to rely on the power of the aristocratic family, he did not dare to do so openly. He could only be harsh to Pei Nanwei on the surface and put on a show for the royal family.

The arms that Pei Nanwei covered were covered with scars.

Zhao Mu had already noticed this.

The Pei family is the last support that Prince Jing'an left for his son, so Pei Nanwei is destined to endure all these pains.

Before Zhao Xun came to power, the Pei family did not dare to show any sign of being close to Zhao Heng.

The burden of destroying the relationship fell on Pei Nanwei.

Over the years, she was branded as a promiscuous woman and suffered abuse every now and then.

It's worse than death.

But she had no choice. Her own suffering saved a family. She knew her own importance.

Today, she heard that the newly-appointed King Mu was passing by here, and she had been fantasizing that, under the current circumstances, she should be able to have two days of peace and quiet.

But I didn't expect that Zhao Mu would find this place.

If Zhao Heng saw her talking to another man, he might beat her up again.

At this moment, Pei Nanwei was trembling all over, as if he had foreseen his own end.

She just wanted Zhao Mu to leave quickly, so she just responded perfunctorily to Zhao Mu's polite inquiries!
But Zhao Mu seemed to have no tact and stayed here and refused to leave!
"Aunt, what's wrong with your arm? Is it injured?"

As Zhao Mu spoke, he grabbed Pei Nanwei's little hand and lifted up his sleeves!

Seeing this, Pei Nanwei was immediately frightened and quickly dodged!

"King Mu, please respect yourself!"

Pei Nanwei pulled up his sleeve to cover the wound on his arm.

"Aunt is so beautiful, it's really heartbreaking to see her injured! I happen to have some healing medicine here, Aunt, take it and use it!"

Pei Nanwei was about to refuse when she heard this, but Zhao Mu grabbed her and forced the medicine into her hands!
That tender little hand had turned red at this moment. Pei Nanwei's shoulders shrugged slightly, and he was extremely scared!
"If the prince is alright, I will go back first!"

Pei Nanwei said this and turned away without looking back!

Seeing this, Zhao Mu sighed slightly, but didn't say anything!
The night is getting dark.

There were bursts of sobbing coming from Pei Nanwei's room!
There were sounds of whips being cracked, mixed with the angry roars of men. In the room, Pei Nanwei was hanging on the beam, with only his toes left on the ground.

He was naked, but his snow-white skin was already stained with blood, with many bright red wounds, which was shocking to the eye.

Zhao Heng waved the whip and cursed.

Pei Nanwei's face was full of pain, but she clenched her teeth and made no sound. However, she couldn't help but let the tears roll down from the corners of her eyes.

"There is not a single good person in your Pei family. You are a bitch who doesn't keep her husband's chastity. You deserve to die!"

After fighting for a long time, Zhao Heng sat down panting, cursing, but raised his hand to take out the medicine and put it on the table!
He looked at Pei Nanwei with a hint of guilt in his eyes, but he felt helpless.

After a long time, as if he was tired of scolding, Zhao Heng stood up and walked out the door!
"Don't let her down tonight. Leave her hanging like this. This unchaste bitch must be punished!"

Zhao Heng walked out of the yard, gave an order, and then locked the door! In the dim night, Pei Nanwei cried silently in the room.

When Zhao Heng left, he put a pillow under her feet, which helped her stand steadily.

But there was nothing I could do to treat the injuries on my body.

At this moment, the pain has turned into numbness and the blood has coagulated into scabs.

She tried hard to stand still and looked at the medicine that Zhao Heng had placed on the table.

That was what Zhao Mu gave her during the day, but at this moment, she obviously couldn't apply the medicine.

She seemed to have gotten used to days like this, but today Zhao Heng seemed a little different.

In the past, although she would be hung up and beaten, Zhao Heng would always let her down after the beating.

what is it today?
Pei Nanwei was thinking in his heart, when suddenly, the door opened and a figure walked in!
"Lord Mu, you?"

When Pei Nanwei saw the person coming, he was startled, but soon he lowered his head in shame and turned away.

How can she meet people in this state?

What a shame that it was seen by outsiders.

"Get out now, this is my room!"

Pei Nanwei quickly spoke in a low voice, afraid of being heard!
But Zhao Mu not only did not leave, but closed the door!

"what are you up to?"

At this moment, Pei Nanwei's heart was filled with fear.

"How did Aunt become like this? It's all my fault. I heard people talking about what happened in the palace after I went back home today!"

Zhao Mu walked forward with a guilty look on his face!

"Aunt, I shouldn't have spoken to you today! I didn't know Uncle Wang actually..."

"I'll help aunt untie the rope now!"

"Don't touch me!" Pei Nanwei hurriedly spoke, but then lowered her voice and begged, "Prince, I beg you, please leave quickly! If Prince Jing'an sees us, I..."

"Don't be afraid, Auntie. I'll go ask Uncle Wang for mercy!" Zhao Mu said. Just as he turned around, he was stopped by Pei Nanwei!
"No, if you see me like this, how can I face others in the future?"

"If the prince knew about this, I'm afraid..."

Pei Nanwei's face was filled with fear, but he didn't know what to do, so he could only beg Zhao Mu to leave quickly!

"Today's incident was caused by me. I can't bear to see my aunt suffer this injustice! I will help you solve it!"

Zhao Mu didn't care and wanted to help Pei Nanwei untie the restraints immediately, but after putting Pei Nanwei down, the door was opened again!

Zhao Heng has appeared at the door!
When Pei Nanwei saw this, a trace of despair suddenly rose in his heart!
As one might imagine, Zhao Heng's anger did not appear.

Instead, she saw a hint of relief on Zhao Heng's face!
But the next second, Zhao Heng opened his mouth and shouted angrily!

"Zhao Mu, what are you doing? How dare you touch my princess?"

Pei Nanwei wanted to explain something, but Zhao Mu turned around and said!
"Uncle Wang, today's incident was caused by me. If you want to punish me, I will accept it. Aunt is innocent!"

"This is my family affair, it's none of your business!"

"But I don't want to see my aunt get hurt because of me. Please allow me to take my aunt to heal. Afterwards, I will give Uncle Wang an explanation!"
