The Regent's Little Wife

Chapter 622 Linghu Wen Takes Out the Marriage Certificate

"What? My words don't work anymore, right? Do you need me to repeat it again?" Linghu Wen frowned and said in a stern tone.

"No, no, it's just... just..." The subordinates lowered their heads one after another, not daring to look directly into Linghu Wen's eyes, but their hearts were full of doubts and confusion.

"Just what? Just say what you want to say, don't be hesitant!" Linghu Wen waved his hands impatiently, signaling his subordinates to speak quickly.

"Subordinates..." Linghu Wen's subordinates looked at each other, speechless for a moment, not knowing how to start.

At this moment, Linghu Wen's anger erupted like a volcano. He stood up suddenly and took firm steps towards where Si Ning was.

His low voice was full of dissatisfaction and doubt: "Such a trivial matter is so difficult..."

After saying that, his eyes involuntarily fell on the figure on the ground. At that moment, he felt like he was struck by lightning, and his heart suddenly shrank. He never expected that the person lying on the ground, lifeless, was actually Si Ning.

"How could it be...her?" Linghu Wen muttered to himself, and quickly squatted down, using his trembling fingers to feel Si Ning's pulse, but all he got in response was dead silence. He was horrified, and stepped back repeatedly, and finally sat down on the ground helplessly, his eyes full of disbelief and pain.

Meanwhile, outside the room, Jun Yuanxun and Yuan Qi were anxiously waiting for Si Ning's return. Time passed by, but she was nowhere to be seen. Finally, they could no longer hold back and decided to go to Linghu Wen's residence to find out. As soon as they stepped into the room, the scene in front of them made their hearts sink to the bottom of the valley instantly - Si Ning was lying quietly on the ground, while Linghu Wen sat beside him with a dull look on his face, as if the whole world had collapsed.

Jun Yuanxun was the first to rush forward. He couldn't believe that Si Ning had met with such misfortune after only a short separation. The anger and grief in his heart surged like a raging tide, almost drowning him.

Yuan Qi, who followed closely behind, was even more indignant. He had come here to rescue Si Ning, but he never thought that he would be one step too late in the end.

He suddenly pulled Linghu Wen up and shouted angrily, "What exactly do you want to do? Not only did you kidnap the empress of our human race, but you also did this to her! What did she do wrong to deserve this misfortune?"

Linghu Wen seemed to still be in shock, his lips trembling slightly, and he was speechless for a long time. His heart was filled with regret and self-blame, he never thought that his impulsiveness would lead to such a disaster.

This matter soon reached the ears of the Demon Lord Linghu Xia. He was about to take a nap with tea, but he fell off his chair in shock when he heard the bad news. He was full of doubts and uneasiness, and hurried to Linghu Wen's bedroom. When he saw Si Ning lying on the ground, he had an ominous premonition. He realized that his innocent son had accidentally committed a heinous crime.

The Regent Jun Yuanxun's eyes were now red, he glared at Linghu Xia and asked: "Demon Lord, how ridiculous is this? Why did your son kill the Empress of our human race? Our human race and the demon world have always kept to themselves, why did you act like this? I will report this matter to the Emperor of Heaven and seek justice!" After that, he waved his hand to signal his men to take Si Ning away, and every step seemed unusually heavy.

At this moment, Linghu Wen suddenly stood up, his voice full of unquestionable determination: "You have no right to take her away, she is the one in my heart, my fiancée." Hearing this, Yuan Qi raised a sarcastic smile, "Absurd! What are you talking about? The one in front of you is the empress of the human world, and you ended her life with your own hands. This matter will never be resolved easily. When we return, we will report this matter to the Lord of the Six Realms and let the Emperor of Heaven to do us justice."

Linghu Wen pretended not to hear anything. He ignored Yuan Qi's angry rebuke and directly snatched Si Ning's cold body from the guards and hugged it tightly in his arms.

His voice was trembling, filled with endless sorrow and self-blame: "Although we haven't had a wedding yet, the engagement has already been made, and she has agreed. What happened today was purely accidental, and I never thought it would be like this... Yesterday I made a vow to her to marry her, how could she become an executioner in the blink of an eye? I would never do such a thing!"

His eyes were like torches, scanning everyone present, and his tone was full of determination: "Here, only I have the right to decide whether she stays or goes. You, since you are not her relatives, what qualifications do you have to take her away?"

As he spoke, he hugged the woman in his arms even tighter, as if he wanted to merge her into his own bones and blood.

Jun Yuanxun witnessed all this, and his heart was burning with anger, and he could hardly control his fists. He never expected that after being reborn, he still failed to protect the love in his heart.

Recalling her past life, she jumped from the city wall in despair because she was deceived by a scumbag. The tragic scene still makes him feel heartbroken. He wanted to keep a distance from Si Ning to avoid repeating the same mistake, but the emotions surged like a tide, making him unable to resist.

Even though Si Ning's temperament has changed greatly in this life, he still vows to protect her. He originally planned to officially marry Si Ning as Feng Jun after this rescue to make up for the regrets of his previous life. However, due to the busy affairs of the court, he has never made up his mind. However, the war broke out suddenly, and things are unpredictable. Si Ning fell into the hands of the demon world again.

After rebirth, he wanted to avenge his past life, but judging from his words and actions, he obviously had no memory of his past life. Si Ning found Linghu Wen again for a mission and wanted to explain everything, but unfortunately he encountered a sudden disaster and died on the spot.

At this moment, the regret in Jun Yuanxun's heart surged like a tide. He hated himself for not being able to respond to Si Ning's request in time, and he hated Linghu Wen's impulsive behavior even more.

He glared at Linghu Wen, his voice as cold as ice: "Since you have already killed her, how can you have the face to talk about marrying her? You always act so recklessly and without regard for the consequences! Do you know the purpose of her visit? She came to reveal the truth to you and tell you her true identity. But you killed her with your own hands! Why do you want to take her away? Give her back to us!"

However, Linghu Wen seemed to be in another world, oblivious to the hustle and bustle around him. His arms were tightly around Si Ning, with an unquestionable determination and deep affection.

"She is my chosen partner, and we will have our wedding the day after tomorrow. Even if fate plays tricks on me and she has left, I will still hold this wedding for her. Come, continue to prepare this festive hall. Today, I will tie the knot with my beloved. Here is the marriage certificate. No need to say more. It is the testimony of our love." As he spoke, Linghu Wen slowly took out a marriage certificate from his lapel. On it was a promise written by Si Ning himself.

In Si Ning's mind, this marriage certificate might just be a joke that she made on the spur of the moment. After all, she would eventually return to the throne of Si Dynasty and become the supreme empress. She had imagined that when that time came, she could take Linghu Wen into the harem as a unique landscape in her heart. Therefore, when the pen tip touched the paper, the marriage certificate came into being without thinking deeply about what would happen next.

However, Linghu Wen treasured the marriage certificate and showed it to everyone. In this particular world, Si Ning never expected that once the marriage certificate was written, it would mean that the other party would become her only and official partner. In her past travels, she had never encountered such constraints, and she seemed so ignorant of this sudden responsibility and commitment.
