Exile after Divorce? Empty the Scumbag Husband First!-Chapter 227 - 224: Isn’t That Mu Ren? He Went Mad So Quickly After Leaving the Prince Mansion?
Guard Liu returned to the nearest village and inquired a bit, only to discover that this village had long been uninhabited; a fire two years ago had killed most of the residents.
Even passersby felt it was full of grievances and dared not approach easily.
But Ruan Mian never believed in such things and, under the gloomy sky, entered together with Guard Liu.
The village wasn’t very large, and the two planned to search separately. However, they hadn’t gone far when they faintly heard a man’s voice.
They exchanged a glance and indeed headed in the direction of the voice.
In the dilapidated stable next to a dry well, dozens of young women were tied up. They were all thin and terrified, likely captive here for some time.
A man in red noble attire lay in a pile of wine bottles, his consciousness muddled.
Wasn’t this Mu Ren? How did he go mad so quickly from the Prince Mansion to here?
"Ayue, Ayue, do you really not want to be with me? Do you really like being angry with me so much?"
"My heart to you is genuine; I even refused to marry the General’s daughter, I wanted to marry you. But what about you? You’d rather burn yourself to death?! Am I nothing in your eyes?!"
"Even when right in front of me, you never admit..."
He staggered, picked up a wine bottle, and walked in front of the tied-up women. They were all so frightened their faces turned pale, and they didn’t dare to look up.
Mu Ren casually pinched a woman’s chin and ruthlessly smashed the wine bottle on her head!
Instantly, blood flashed across the unfortunate woman’s forehead, terrifying the others into trembling.
Even Guard Liu couldn’t help but pick up a stone from the side, but he was stopped by Ruan Mian.
She gave him a cold look and whispered, "Do not act rashly, Guard Liu. I’ll watch here while you go to the village and borrow two carts; those girls probably can’t walk."
"Don’t worry, I’ll stay right here until you get back."
Only then did Guard Liu feel assured enough to leave and borrow the carts.
Little did he know, Ruan Mian was merely sending him away.
As soon as Guard Liu left, Ruan Mian’s deep gaze touched the Jade Bracelet, and after a moment of concentration, she summoned the White Tiger!
She petted the White Tiger Beast’s large head, whispered something in its ear, and next, the tiger roared, shaking the heavens and the earth!
The drunken Mu Ren stumbled from the edge of the dry well to the ground, instantly wetting himself in fright by the charging White Tiger.
His paralytic legs couldn’t move... The mighty, towering White Tiger opened its bloody mouth and roared fiercely, making others pale with fear, screaming helplessly.
Especially Heir Mu Ren.
His legs turned stiff, unable to flee. He was just getting up when the White Tiger grabbed him and hurled him into the air!
"Ah..."
With his scream, he fell with a thud into a heap like a dog eating dirt.
The tiger beast continuously picked him up, tossing him like a ball for its amusement.
The urine-soaked Mu Ren, dizzy and suffering, felt like his entire body was about to fall apart, cracking into pieces.
"Help... help..."
In the end, his voice grew weak, losing strength from the tiger’s play.
Finally, with a parabolic toss, the tiger beast threw him in front of the tied-up women.
With his last ounce of strength, Mu Ren quickly loosened the ropes of the few women closest to him.
Watching them scream and run away, he attempted to use them to distract the tiger for more time.
Unfortunately, the tiger beast paid no mind to the women. Instead, due to their screams, it bared its teeth menacingly at Mu Ren, making his face turn ashen as he screamed loudly.
But the tiger beast pounced forward, seizing his manhood in one bite...
Meanwhile, in the Prince Mansion, the atmosphere was tense, with General Hu Lie’s family seated sternly in the higher seats, as Prince Yong and the Princess Consort spoke all kinds of placating words.
After all, it was Mu Ren’s inappropriate behavior that started it. In a few days, this news would likely reach the Capital City.
If by then the Emperor became furious and blamed them, it would be hard to clean up the mess.
Prince Yong had no choice but to lower his stance, negotiating with General Hu Lie for remedial measures with a basis of mutual goodwill.
If they could marry again, they would even offer double the betrothal gifts.
However, General Hu Lie did not care about the Silver Coin but rather whether this daughter he’d hardly reclaimed was willing.
If she didn’t want to marry far away, they now had the reason to return to Lanqiang.
No need to aggrieve themselves for the state’s sake by entering into a marriage alliance.
Nor marry such an unreasonable, foolish princely heir!
Thus, General Hu Lie and his wife looked towards Ruan Jiao, thoughtfully asking her opinion.
At this moment, bearing the guise of Nabuhui, Ruan Jiao could easily turn away, but she was not truly Nabuhui. Her goal was to return gloriously to Da Jing, stand in a high position, and make those exiles regret it!
So if she refused this time, returning to Lanqiang, how could she fulfill her aspirations?
After considering for a while, as Ruan Jiao was about to speak, suddenly a servant rushed in from outside, anxiously kneeling on the ground and kowtowing repeatedly!
"Prince, something terrible happened! The young master, the young master was attacked by a tiger, call for the household doctor to check on the young master quickly!"
"What?!"
Prince Yong incredulously slammed the table and immediately followed the servant to the young master’s quarters.
"Xingjia had never heard of such a wild beast attack. Ren’er wasn’t in deep forests; how could he have encountered a wild beast?!" 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶
When continuously questioned, the servant was also quite puzzled: "Forgive me, Prince, I am unsure. Today, the young master was in a bad mood and went to Yang Village. I noticed the young master hadn’t returned for a while, so I went to check and saw... saw the young master lying in a pool of blood."
"I even saw with my own eyes a White Tiger leaving towards the back mountains of the village! And the young master’s... manhood likely can’t be saved."
This last sentence left Prince Yong stunned, both he and his spouse’s vision turned black, nearly fainting.
Without the manhood, how could there be an heir?!
And this news naturally reached Ruan Jiao’s ears too.
Her face abruptly changed, with her attitude suddenly taking a sharp turn. All the words she hadn’t uttered were swallowed back down.
"Without even a manhood? Father, if I marry him, wouldn’t I be a widow? I still have a long life ahead, I don’t want to become a widow!"
General Hu Lie and his wife would not let their daughter suffer such hardship. Before the Prince could speak, Ruan Jiao had already knelt down sobbing.
"Father, yesterday I was already humiliated, as everyone watched, the young master left me, the unwed bride, unattended, to save a concubine. I agreed to this marriage for the sake of the two countries’ harmony."
"Now the young master’s been injured by a wild beast, and if I become a widow, with no child to support me in old age, what can I do?!"
