The Abandoned Wife of a Military Family: Your disguise has been exposed again.

Chapter 179 Yunwei is slapped

To the master, this is just a game.

Once she loses interest, the prey no longer has any reason to exist.

He didn't kill Yun Yao at first, but only wanted to tease her for a few days and also to play with those who were looking for her. He thought it would be fun to see them searching frantically but finding nothing.

Poor Yun Yao was unaware that she was about to die.

Just as she was thinking this, the woman in the tight-fitting clothes heard Feng Huai say in a casual tone, as if he were talking about the weather, "Haitang, send her on her way tomorrow. Remember to make sure it's clean. Don't dirty my courtyard. Afterwards, throw her into the moat."

The woman in the tight-fitting clothes named Haitang felt a chill run down her spine. "Yes." After thinking for a moment, she asked, "Did you kill her maid as well?"

Feng Huai turned to look at her and asked in return, "What do you think?"

Haitang's heart skipped a beat, and she immediately lowered her head. "Your subordinate knows what to do."

As soon as she finished speaking, the man's cold fingers lifted her chin.

Haitang's pupils contracted, her whole body tensed, and she looked at him, puzzled. "Master?"

"Haitang, are you afraid of me?" Feng Huai asked softly.

Haitang swallowed hard, thinking to himself, "Who wouldn't be afraid of their master?"
"No, no," she shook her head in denial.

Feng Huai snorted coldly, released her, and then suddenly said, "Your face does look quite similar to that of Princess Rong'an."

Haitang's heart sank.

She had never met Princess Rong'an, but two days ago at the foot of Putuo Temple, when she disguised herself as the villain, many people thought she was Princess Rong'an.

Now that the master has suddenly said this, does he have some scheme in mind?
Haitang felt extremely uneasy.

Over the years, she had assassinated many people for her master. She should have been cold and ruthless, but for some reason, she did not agree with many of her master's ways of doing things.

But unfortunately, her master had been kind to her, and she couldn't betray him.

……

The following day, at the county magistrate's residence.

Yunwei got up early.

Although she was exhausted from leading people to search for Yun Yao these past few days, this matter had piqued her interest.

Who is behind this? Where did they hide Yun Yao?

She led her men to search the entire capital, but they still couldn't find any trace of Yun Yao.

It's clear that the person behind this is quite capable.

After washing up and eating something casually, she took a topographical map of the outskirts of the capital and prepared to leave the residence.

She got this topographic map from Rong Zhen. She marked all the places she had searched. Now, only some villas and estates remained to be searched.

She had just reached the door when she saw Yun Yueshan and his son Yun Qi hurrying in.

"Weiwei, something's happened..." Yun Qi had only said a few words when he saw his father beside him suddenly rush towards Yun Wei.

"Snapped!"

A crisp slap echoed in the courtyard.

Yun Qi was stunned and looked at his father in disbelief.

"How could you be so vicious? What grudge do you have against Yao Yao that you would be so cruel as to kill her and her maid and throw them into the moat?" Yun Yueshan stared at Yun Wei with uncontrollable rage.

Caught off guard, Yunwei was slapped across the face. Her ears rang, and it took her a long time to recover.

"You are so vicious, I should never have taken you in back then, you wretched creature!" Yun Yueshan rebuked angrily.

This was the scene that Rong Zhen saw when he entered.

Yun Yueshan berated Yun Wei harshly, while Yun Wei stood there, head bowed, completely silent.

As they drew closer, they saw five clear finger marks on her left cheek. Rong Zhen was both shocked and furious. He immediately pulled her into his arms with a pained expression, his gaze turning icy and menacing as he looked at Yun Yueshan. "Marquis Pingning, how dare you hit Yun Wei? Who gave you the audacity?"

Yun Yueshan said coldly, "Your Majesty, this is my family matter. I am disciplining my unfilial daughter. I hope Your Majesty will not interfere."

Rong Zhen laughed angrily, "Pingning Marquis, don't forget, Yunwei is my betrothed. No one has the right to lecture her, including you!"

Yun Yueshan's expression changed slightly. "Regent, although Yun Wei is engaged to you, she is not yet married into the family. She is still my daughter, Yun Yueshan's daughter. It is only natural for a father to discipline his daughter. Moreover, this girl is vicious and is not worthy of the Regent. The Regent should not be delayed by such a person. I urge the Regent to reconsider!"

He had barely finished speaking when he was punched hard in the face.

Yun Yueshan winced in pain, looked at Rong Zhen in disbelief, and angrily said, "Regent, you..."

"This punch is to avenge Yunwei. You are her father, so she can't lay a hand on you, but I have no such scruples. She is my fiancée, and anyone who dares to touch her is going against me," Rong Zhen said coldly.

Yun Yueshan's face turned ashen. After all, he was the future father-in-law of the Regent, and yet he had acted so suddenly.

"boom!"

Before Yun Yueshan could recover, he was punched hard on the other side of his face.

"As a subject, you have shown disrespect to me. This punch is my punishment for you!" Rong Zhen's voice was authoritative and intimidating.

Yun Yueshan's face turned red and then pale, and he clenched his fists. No matter how unwilling he was, he could only swallow his anger and resentment.

Yun Qi, standing to the side, remained silent, as if chilled to the bone.

His father, who was always the absolute authority and never smiled at home, was actually punched twice by the regent...

He was both surprised and wanted to laugh.

Although it was very unfilial, he felt happy to see his father being beaten.

Finally, someone could tame his stubborn father.

Seeing the tense atmosphere, he felt it was time to make his presence known to the Regent.

So he cleared his throat and said righteously, "Father, I know you are saddened by Yun Yao's death, but you can't take it out on Weiwei. Why are you blaming her? She didn't kill anyone. If it were me, I would hate you to death."

Yun Yueshan gritted his teeth in anger. He couldn't scold or lay a hand on the Regent, but he could still hit his son.

However, just as he raised his hand, Yun Qi slipped behind Rong Zhen like an eel, peeking out and saying, "You really should change your bad habit of hitting people at the drop of a hat."

Yun Yueshan was so angry that his throat tasted blood. "You... unfilial son."

“I am a rebellious son, Weiwei is a wicked daughter, only Yun Yao is a filial daughter, then why don’t you go with her?” Yun Qi said angrily.

"What?" Yun Yueshan glared at him angrily.

“What I said isn’t wrong. You cherished Yun Yao so much. Now that she’s dead, if you can’t bear to leave her, you can follow her in death. I will definitely take good care of your funeral arrangements,” Yun Qi said earnestly.

"Pfft!" A mouthful of blood spurted from Yun Yueshan's mouth.

Yun Qi's expression changed, and he rushed forward to support him. "Father, I was just saying it casually. Don't be so pessimistic. Do you really want to follow Yun Yao?"

Yun Yueshan punched him in the face, "You unfilial son!"

Out of pain, Yun Qi slapped his hand away, saying, "You still have the strength to hit people, so you won't die anytime soon. I'm not going to bother with you anymore."

Yun Yueshan was so angry he almost fainted.

Rong Zhen glanced at Yun Qi again.

"Weiwei, I'm truly sorry about what happened today. I couldn't persuade Father to stay." Yun Qi turned around and looked at Yun Wei apologetically.

"Get out!" Yun Wei coldly uttered a single word from her red lips.

"Alright." Knowing she was angry, Yun Qi didn't say anything more, picked up Yun Yueshan, and left.

"I don't need your help." Yun Yueshan clutched his chest and pushed him away.

“I don’t want to help you either, but I’m afraid Weiwei will be upset if she sees you.” After saying that, Yun Qi forcefully carried Yun Yueshan away.
