Chapter 961 Hugh
Xiao Ling quickly issued an edict, and then the news that Weiyuan Marquis Wang Yong was divorced spread throughout the capital.
When Lin Yiwan returned home, Zhan Xuan said happily, "Mother, this time it's all thanks to you for saving Xiaoshu and his mother from suffering. His father is so hateful! If my father dared to do that, I would beat him!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a majestic voice came: "You little bastard, how dare you hit me when I'm away from home for only a few days?"
Zhan Xuan turned back with joy: "Dad, you're back?"
Although his tone was happy, he turned around and ran away.
Looking at his back, Zhan Yan couldn't help but snort coldly: "You're lucky you ran fast, otherwise I would have beaten your ass to pieces!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he couldn't contain his longing and hugged Lin Yiwan tightly.
Although Lin Yiwan also missed him, she still maintained some rationality.
She quickly reminded: "A Yan, don't be impulsive, this is outside!"
Zhan Yan laughed: "Okay, I'll carry you into the house right away!"
In the end, the body's subconscious instinct prevailed. Even if the matter was very serious, Zhan Yan had already forgotten about it.
When the two spoke again, their voices were hoarse.
Especially when Lin Yiwan saw the scratch marks on Zhan Yan's chest, she felt so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole in the ground to crawl into.
She quickly looked away and said weakly and feebly, "Ah Yan, I'm so thirsty!"
He agreed: "Okay, I'll give you some water right away!"
Lin Yiwan thought he meant feeding with a spoon, but she didn't expect that he actually used his mouth.
After he poured her a few mouthfuls of it, she quickly reached out and pushed him away: "No, no more, my body can't take it anymore, it's so sore and painful!"
Zhan Yan reached out and pinched her cheek: "I didn't say to continue? What are you thinking?"
Lin Yiwan frowned and said to him, "Why don't you let me drink some water?"
Zhan Yan put on his clothes and then quickly tidied her up.
He said in a gentle voice, "I came back this time because the candidate for the commander of Suzhou City has been decided. Can you guess who it is?"
Lin Yiwan blinked: "My sworn brother?"
Zhan Yan couldn't help but praise: "My wife is so smart, she guessed it right in one go!"
Lin Yiwan reached out and pinched his waist. "Your compliments are so insincere. There are only a few generals in the court, and the only one who can earn the trust of the new emperor and my father is my sworn brother. Anyone can guess that, right?"
Zhan Yan held her hand and kissed it: "Hurry up and get up, you have to go to the Fang family to congratulate your brother. He will be leaving for Suzhou City to take up his post tomorrow morning with the imperial edict!"
Lin Yiwan's expression suddenly changed: "Leaving in such a hurry? Are my sister-in-law and the children going with him?"
Zhan Yan shook his head: "I don't think so. The situation in Suzhou City is complicated now. If my brother takes them there, I'm afraid it will be dangerous!"
Lin Yiwan thought so, and she quickly called Ling'er to help her with her makeup.
Because they were going to see Fang Qingshan off, the entire Zhan Yihou family went out.
But just when they were halfway there, someone stopped the carriage in the street.
Lin Yiwan looked over and saw the disheveled former Marquis of Weiyuan, Wang Yong, and his two children with Xiao Liu.
He knelt on the ground and cried, "Zhan Yihou, please give me and my children a way to live."
Zhan Yan reached out to open the carriage curtain and stared at him coldly: "Wang Yong, you are so bold! You actually dared to block my carriage in the street?"
Wang Yong trembled all over and said, "Reporting to Lord Zhan Yi, I am truly desperate, so I have come to you for help. I have no home to return to now, and it's all thanks to your wife!"
After Zhan Yan came back, he heard that Weiyuan Hou had allowed his concubine to poison his wife and was kicked out of the house, so he did not feel the slightest sympathy for him.
He sneered, "You deserve what you've become today. If you had any respect or care for your wife, she wouldn't have divorced you!"
A ferocious hatred flashed in Wang Yong's eyes. He regretted that he should not have listened to Xiao Liu's instigation and asked Xie Ru to go to Zhan Yihou's mansion to pick up his son. That way, the scandal of his Weiyuan Marquis's mansion would not be exposed to the public.
He took a deep breath and said, "Now I know I was wrong. After all, I am still Xiaoshu's father. I beg Marquis Zhan Yi to help me talk to my wife and ask her to accept me again. I will change my ways and take good care of her and Xiaoshu!"
Zhan Yan interrupted without hesitation: "Impossible! If I were you, I would quickly find a place to stay and teach these two children well no matter what!"
Wang Yong felt even more resentful. It is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. He was originally the Marquis of Weiyuan, and lived a comfortable life with food and clothes provided for him.
Now that he was kicked out, he realized that he was penniless.
Xie Ru was especially ruthless, not even allowing him to take his clothes out.
He had nothing else to wear except the one he was wearing.
The two children next to him were the same, crying loudly with hunger.
He knelt before Zhan Yan and said, "Zhan Yihou, please help me for the sake of our old friendship. I can find a place to stay, but I need money to buy a house and servants. Can you give me five thousand taels of silver first?"
Lin Yiwan, who was sitting in the carriage, was so angry that she almost laughed. Wang Yong was so shameless. He actually wanted to ask Zhan Yan for money?
Where did he get his face?
Zhan Yan had also lost his patience at this point. He said in a deep voice, "Come here, drag them away! If they dare to block my way again, I'll break their legs!"
"Yes!" Ying Hunyingyi stepped forward quickly and lifted Wang Yong up effortlessly.
"Zhan Yihou, Zhan Yihou, you can't just stand by and watch someone die!" Wang Yong's pleading voice gradually faded away.
Zhan Yan ignored him and urged the driver to go to Fang's house quickly.
When Wang Yong was thrown into the alley, he was furious and yelled, "Zhan Yihou, you are completely devoid of conscience. You allowed your wife to interfere and bring about such a miserable end for me. I will never let this go!"
At this time, his daughter Wang Mingzhu cried and said, "Daddy, I'm so hungry, I want to eat osmanthus cake!"
Wang Yong raised his hand and slapped her hard. "I think you're just like a sweet-scented osmanthus cake, a shallow-eyed little girl. If you hadn't tried to steal the pearl flower from the eldest daughter of Marquis Zhan Yi's mansion, how could you have attracted that famous fierce woman in the capital, Lin Yiwan?"
Wang Mingzhu fell to the ground after being beaten. When she came to her senses, she burst into tears: "Daddy is bad, Daddy hit me!"
Wang Yong was already furious, and after hearing her curse, he couldn't help but step forward and kick her a few more times.
Wang Jianye grabbed his arm and said, "Dad, don't hit your sister. I have a way to get you back to Weiyuan Marquis Mansion!"
Marquis Weiyuan's face was ashen and ugly, but when he faced his son, whom he had always held in the palm of his hand, he naturally restrained some of his anger.
