Chapter 106 Penalty
Li Xuanqing did not leave, but stood there, looking at Wei Hong's back with complicated eyes. From childhood to adulthood, no man has ever made Li Xuanqing so entangled. Now Wei Hong did it. This damn Wei Hong first made a waste of money and became a partner of Hongyuan Trading Company without paying a penny. Later, he used some tricks to deceive Li Ruohua's heart. Now he has come to the capital and has caused such a big disaster. He said he has
No words can be said. Li Xuanqing bit her lip and thought viciously in her heart, "Does my Li family owe you? You damn bastard! Although she cursed Wei Hong in her heart, Li Xuanqing still gritted her teeth and walked over. Chong Cheng Zhijie and Li Jing saluted Wei Hong, excusing Wei Hong: "Li Xuanqing has met Duke Lu and Duke Wei. Wei Hong has just come to the capital and doesn't understand the rules. Although he has caused such a big disaster, he thinks that it is the first offense, so please deal with it as appropriate."
Li Jing was very familiar with Li Xuanqing and knew that Li Xuanqing was a talented woman, so he replied with a respectful look and said with a smile: "I called Miss Li, but I don't plan to make things worse. Miss Li can rest assured."
Upon hearing this, Li Xuanqing breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you for the Duke of Wei Sheng's Inn."
Looking at Wei Hong and others kneeling on the ground, Li Jing's face changed and pretended to be angry and said, "Although I appreciate your affection and righteousness, this cannot offset the mistakes you have made! I will ask you, are you accepting the beating or punishment?"
"What do you say about accepting the beating, and what do you say about accepting the punishment?" Cheng Chumo asked without knowing his life.
"I will accept the beating, and now I will drag you out. Each of them will beat a hundred military sticks. If you accept the punishment, you will go around my mansion and run ten laps to the business!"
A hundred military sticks can break the pelvis, which is not a joke. Even if you can carry it down, you don’t want to get out of bed without three to five months of maintenance. Compared to a hundred military sticks, the punishment for running around the Weigong Mansion for thirty laps is more humane. The circumference of the Weigong Mansion is about four miles long, and ten miles long is forty miles long. I gritted my teeth and thorned my teeth and ran down. At most, my legs hurt and I will rest on the bed for a day. I know that Li Jing has already made a favour to me and don’t want to pursue it, the five people are very cognitive.
He accepted the punishment. He was supervised by Cheng Zhijie and ran around the Wei Gong Mansion. For a mere forty miles, it was like playing for Cheng Chumo and Yuchi Baolin. Although Wei Hong was not as good as the two, he could barely hold on. But Fang Yizhi and Du He were all sick. Compared with the other three, these two were typical third-level disabled people. Not to mention running, they were panting when they walked faster. Before they finished running, they covered their stomachs and panted as if they were panting, and fell to the ground and said they would not get up.
Cheng Zhijie didn't care about that much. He kicked each of them on the butt, making them grin and howl.
Fang Yizhi covered his butt with one hand and his chest with the other, and wailed: "Uncle, please spare us, we really can't run."
Du He also echoed: "Not to mention ten laps, even if it's one lap, we can't run away. Otherwise... or, you let my father take me back. Even if you get scolded, it's better than throwing your life here."
Cheng Zhijie didn't look down on the weak appearance of the literati. Seeing that these two were so timid, Cheng Zhijie was in trouble for no reason. He stretched out his big hand like a tiger claw and forced them to lift them up from the ground. With a force on his hand, he pushed them several meters away, just pushing them to Wei Hong and the other two waiting not far away. Cheng Zhijie said impatiently: "I don't care why you run, as long as you can run down these ten laps. Run quickly! I still have to go back to sleep, and I don't have time to accompany you here."
It seems that Lao Cheng will not give up until he finishes running. Helplessly, Wei Hong and the other two could only support these two and jog slowly. At the speed of Wei Hong and the other two, they would have finished running in just one hour in ten laps, but in order to support Fang Yizhi and Du He, the speed was greatly reduced, and he ran for three hours before he finished running. After the run, it was dawn, and Lao Cheng was willing to leave. Cheng Chumo said goodbye to Wei Hong and others very consciously, and followed the house behind Lao Cheng's butt without saying a word.
Fang Yizhi and Du He could no longer stand up. They ignored their identities and slowly lowered their bodies against the corner of the wall, lay down on the ground and fell asleep. Wei Hong and Yuchi Baolin looked at each other, stood up in harmony, patted the dust, and turned around and left. As for Fang and Du, there would be someone to pick them up later, so there was no need to worry. When they walked to the front door of the Weigong Mansion, they found a carriage parked in front of the door, which seemed to be the carriage of Hongyuan Trading Company. Unexpectedly, Li Xuanqing had not left yet.
Yuchi Baolin looked at the carriage, and a hint of envy flashed in his eyes. After saying goodbye to Wei Hong, he walked home with his own strength on his legs. After watching Yuchi Baolin leave, Wei Hong got into the carriage, but saw Li Xuanqing covered her body with a piece of white gauze and was lying asleep. Wei Hong did not wake her up, and urged the driver to drive back to Hongyuan Trading.
The coachman knew that Li Xuanqing was still sleeping, so the speed of rushing the car was very slow and steady. Wei Hong leaned on the corner of the carport physically and mentally exhausted. Too many things happened that night, impacting Wei Hong's senses and acceptance ability, making Wei Hong a little difficult to digest. Looking at Li Xuanqing who was sleeping peacefully beside him, his face was not as noble and cold as the past, and he was as peaceful as an ordinary person. Under the infection of Li Xuanqing, Wei Hong slept unconsciously. When he woke up, it was already afternoon.
The carriage stopped at the back door of Hongyuan Trading Company. Li Xuanqing disappeared, but the white veil she covered when she was sleeping covered Wei Hong's body. The white veil exuded a faint fragrance, which was fascinating. Touching the silky white veil, Wei Hong suddenly felt that her behavior last night was a bit too much. Although Li Xuanqing was arrogant, she was a woman after all. She was so old and was working alone in the capital. Only she could understand the bitterness. Her cold and arrogant appearance was just a disguise of her bitter heart.
"Young Master, you are awake." While Wei Hong was staring at the white gauze in his hand, the driver in his forties picked up the curtain and stretched his head in.
Wei Hong did not reply, got out of the car with white veil, dragged his body, which was still tired, into the yard. After returning to his residence, Wanniang and Ruohua were sitting in the main hall chatting. When they saw Wei Hong coming back, they quickly stood up to greet him. Li Ruohua, who had been served since childhood, brought the prepared basin to Wei Hong very virtuously and said softly: "Wash your face."
Wei Hong handed the white veil to Wan Niang beside him and washed her face briefly. After washing her face, Wan Niang casually placed the white veil on the bed and ordered the servant to bring the porridge and vegetables to fill Wei Hong's hunger. Wei Hong was so hungry that he put his chest on his back, so he didn't hesitate to sit down and eat.
