The Marquis suddenly released a killing aura, making everyone tremble with fear, and they all said in unison, "We understand, my lord."
"That's good then!"
The Marquis swiftly stood up.
"You are to follow the lady's orders. If there is any overstepping, it will be like this tree."
As his gaze swept over them, he lightly swung his arm, and an old tree on the outer side of the courtyard cracked with a sound and then fell heavily to the ground.
This scene made everyone as silent as cicadas in cold weather, not daring to speak.
The Marquis folded his hands behind his back, gave everyone a glance, and then said to Qin Yuan, "You stay here, Sixteen is waiting for me."
Qin Yuan got up to see him off outside the courtyard gate.
The Marquis asked, "What do you think of this strike of mine?"
Qin Yuan smiled softly, lips slightly curved.
"Husband is very mighty."
Only then did the Marquis leave with satisfaction.
