On our wedding night, he personally sent me to the Regent's bed

Chapter 177 Taking the blame

The Ding sisters blushed and tears welled up in their eyes: "Your Highness, you..."

Are you trying to protect that bitch Mu Wanyan, or do you really hate us from the bottom of your heart?

Judging from his disdainful look, it's probably the latter.

Haha, then the position of Crown Princess that they want to fight for is probably something they can't even think of, right?

Pei Yuxiao repeated it again: "What happened last night was done by me. It has nothing to do with anyone else."

Pei Lingsong threw away the Buddhist beads in his hand angrily, "Nonsense, Prince, do you know what you are talking about?"

Pei Yuxiao: "Of course I understand. Everyone is responsible for their own actions. There is no need to use a black dog to verify it."

At this moment, Pei Mochen's gaze towards Pei Yuxiao became deeper and deeper. He was increasingly unable to understand his elder brother. Was he really like Di Xiuyan, bewitched by Mu Wanyan, or was there some unspeakable secret? Was it related to the future throne?

Mu Wanyan also cast a puzzled look at Pei Yuxiao. What happened to him? One moment he hit her with his palm wind, and the next moment he took the blame for her?

Pei Yuxiao saw Mu Wanyan's eyes, and immediately grinned at her, lowered his voice, and said lovingly: "Don't be afraid, the king is here."

"Don't make a sound. There are nails on the board. Your weak arms and legs won't be able to withstand a few hits."

Pei Mochen: “!!!”

He heard clearly what his brother said to Mu Wanyan just now.

Hiss, so doting, so tender, even a grown man like him felt sick to his stomach when he heard it.

"Hmph." Pei Mochen snorted coldly.

He thought to himself: It's disgusting. For the sake of the throne, he would say such sweet words to a woman he doesn't love. Only Pei Yuxiao could do that.

Emperor Pei Lingsong's face was cold at this moment, as if covered with a layer of thousand-year-old ice. He sighed in his heart: None of my sons are talented enough to be used.

He stared at Pei Yuxiao with a sharp gaze and said in a deep voice: "Prince, I will give you one more chance. If you insist that what happened last night was done by you, then you will bear the punishment of fifty boards."

As he spoke, he slightly side-glanced and cast a stern look at the guards holding the long boards, motioning them to come forward.

Pei Mochen's heart was surging at this moment, and a voice whispered in his mind: "Quick, rush up! Tell father that you did it. This is a great opportunity to be a hero and save the beauty, how can you give it to Pei Yuxiao?"

"If you help Mu Wanyan confess her guilt today and take the beating for her, maybe she will be moved to the point of throwing herself into your arms. Wouldn't the relationship between you two be even stronger?"

Pei Mochen shook his head, pursed his thin lips and said nothing. He was so nervous that sweat broke out on his forehead.

The voice was instigating again:

"Hurry up, Pei Mochen, this opportunity is too good to be missed."

"If you rush forward, will Yanyan still like Di Xiuyan? Women are most easily moved. Pei Mochen, you fool, hurry up!"

At the same time, there was another voice stopping him:

"Don't go, don't be stupid. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If Pei Yuxiao is crippled, then Dafeng Jiangshan will be in your hands, right?"

"See? Those boards are all short nails. Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, 50 hits, I guess half of his life will be gone."

Pei Mochen's mind was torn between his conscience and his desires. He clenched his fists, and finally his eyes fell on Mu Wanyan's stunningly beautiful face.

My heart was filled with warmth and I rushed forward. Which hero would not make some sacrifices for a beauty?

He gritted his teeth, made up his mind, and took a step forward: "Father, actually last night..."

Pei Lingsong: “Hmm?”

His eyes shot towards Pei Mochen like a knife: "What do you want to say?"

Pei Mochen: "Ahem, ahem, nothing... nothing. Actually, the weather was bad last night. It seems that the prince really hates the Ding sisters."

Pei Yuxiao: “…” Cowardly waste, no wonder Yanyan likes Di Xiuyan, you are really not worthy of him.

Mu Wanyan: "..." I was shocked. I thought Pei Mochen was going to take the blame for me?

Pei Mochen: It was a close call. I almost forgot about Luo Luo. If I was injured and had a disease, wouldn't Luo Luo dislike me when I found her in the future?

He thought to himself: Fortunately, I didn't show off my bravery. Let Pei Yuxiao be the hero, how can I show off my bravery? Whether it's the imperial power or the woman, I just want to reap the benefits.

……

After a moment, two guards, under Pei Lingsong's command, walked towards Pei Yuxiao step by step with long nail boards in their hands.

Seeing that the execution was about to begin, suddenly...
