The Divine Physician's Overbearing Wife Chapter 1039 - One Year IV

Chapter 1039: One Year IV

Feng Ruqing was dumbstruck by Qing Han’s words.

It was natural that Fu Chen was well-versed in formations.

“By the way, don’t let Brother Fu Chen know that I hid his book. Otherwise, he would beat me.” Qing Han tugged at Feng Ruqing’s sleeve as she said innocently.

“Alright, if you could get the book for me, I will not tell Fu Chen.”

“Uhm. Mother, you can find all the formations you want in that book. I will get it for you later.” Qing Han smiled brightly, she looked so pure and innocent.

Feng Ruqing stroked her chin as she narrowed her eyes.

By doing this, the Forest of Spirit Beasts could regain its peace for an amount of time. At least, no one would disturb them for a while.

In Marquis City.

A young master in a richly intricate brocade forcefully smashed the cup in his hand. He stared coldly at the people kneeling not far below him. His face darkened a few shades.

“What’s wrong with you? You lost your way in the Forest of Spirit Beasts for one whole year and you could not even see a spirit beast? Where are all the rebellious spirit beasts? Where are the people that I have sent into the forest back then? None of them came back?”

Not far below the young master, the guard lowered his head and did not dare look up at the young master.

“Marquis, this subordinate has no idea. The people that we have sent to the Forest of Spirit Beasts were stuck in the same place for quite some time, taking the same path over and over again. This subordinate thinks that someone must have set up a formation in the Forest of Spirit Beasts to stop anyone from entering.”

Hearing this, the young master’s face took on a ghastly expression.

“Formation? Those foolish spirit beasts are capable of setting up a formation? There must be a daredevil who has helped the spirit beast to do that.”

A beautiful lady was lying bashfully in the young master’s embrace. A dusky blush rose to her cheek, her smiling eyes were full of affection.

“Marquis, who dares to invade and commandeer the Forest of Spirit Beasts? Who in Tianyue Kingdom doesn’t know that the Forest of Spirit Beasts belongs to you? Perhaps, this is just an excuse from these insolent subordinates who have gone out to enjoy themselves and have paid no heed to their tasks.”

The young master’s face darkened. He slammed his hand on the table.

“How dare you lie to me! Take this idiot out and beat him to death! You reap what you sow!”

The guard went pale. He frantically kowtowed to the young master, blood started to run down his forehead.

“Marquis, please spare my life! I am telling the truth. There is formation in the Forest of Spirit Beasts!”

Initially, the butler of the marquis manor had merely stood quietly on the side. Seeing this, he could not help but kneel down as he pleaded.

“Marquis, these subordinates are the subordinates of the old marquis. They are infinitely loyal. They would never lie to you.”

Seeing this, the beauty’s eyes reddened and broke into tears. Her rosy cheek turned pale, her once smiling face turned gloomy.

“Marquis, the butler is saying that this concubine is stirring up trouble. If that is the case, I don’t want to live anymore. Please grant me death.”

The beauty left Zheng Tianwu’s arms, bent her legs and wanted to kneel down. Her body was so soft as if it was boneless.

Naturally, Zheng Tianwu could not bear seeing such a gorgeous lady crying. He quickly helped the gorgeous lady got up. His eyes were full of affection, but his heart was boiling with rage.

“Yuan’er, this has nothing to do with you. How dare this old coot make you a scapegoat! Take him out and beat him to death!”

The butler was dumbstruck by the young master’s remark. He only regained his senses when two people were holding up his body.

His heart was broken, he shouted until his face turned blue, “You tyrant! You will ruin the kingdom and bring calamity to the people! You have actually trusted this lady! There will be a day of reckoning for the things you have done!”
