Chapter 244: I want to sever ties

The old woman and the daughters-in-law of the Fang family who were blocking the door were knocked to the ground by this huge force.

"Catch him!" Fu Mo gave the order.

The palace guards filed in.

They worked in groups of two and quickly captured Fang Zhang and others.

Fang Zhang was still angry.

"I wonder who dares to arrest me," Fang Zhang said angrily. "Yu Lingye, I am your grandmother."

"You dare to treat me like this, it's unfilial."

"Get out of here, all of you..."

Bang!

Before Fang Zhang could finish her words, Nanny Chang slapped her hard in the face.

Fang Zhang stared at Nanny Chang with wide eyes: "You lowly slave, how dare you hit me?"

"Even your master doesn't dare to disrespect me, how dare you, a lowly servant, lay hands on me?"

Bang!

Bang!

Nanny Chang was like a madman, slapping Fang Zhang's face.

Her eyes were bloodshot and her hair stood on end with rage: "What's wrong with me hitting you?"

"Not only will I beat you, I'll beat you hard."

"Toffee, even if you tell me to die right now, I will beat you."

"You're going too far."

"She is your biological daughter, Concubine. What grudge do you have against her that would make you so cruel?"

"Over the years, the Concubine has done so much for the Fang family and received so much money. It would be fine if you were not grateful to her at all, but why do you want to humiliate her like this?"

Nanny Chang grabbed Fang Zhang's hair and slapped her hard in the face.

After the fight was almost over.

Nanny Chang knelt down in front of the concubine and kowtowed three times:

"My Lady Dowager, I have been your master and servant for a long time, and I cannot bear to see you being wronged like this."

"I took it upon myself to beat Fang Zhang."

"Whether you blame me, punish me, sell me, or beat me to death, I accept it all."

Fang Zhang's face was slapped like a pig's head. She screamed sharply, "Fang Yingnan, if you still recognize me as your mother, drag this lowly servant out and beat her to death with sticks."

"Kill her, kill her right now!"

The toffee on the bed finally moved.

She slowly stood up and pulled up Nanny Chang who was kneeling on the ground.

"Afang, get up."

"I know you're defending me, and I don't blame you."

Nanny Chang was in tears and sobbing.

Fang Zhang was furious: "Fang Yingnan, what do you mean by this?"

"This bitch hit your father and mother, don't you blame her?"

"I'll say it again, if you still want to recognize me as your mother..."

"What if I don't recognize you?" The concubine interrupted Fang Zhang.

Fang Zhang was shocked: "What do you mean?"

Toffee: "If you don't understand, I can say it again."

"I no longer recognize you as my mother."

"Over the years, I have done so much for the Fang family. I almost emptied Prince Ling's mansion to support the Fang family. For the Fang family, I have repeatedly harmed my Ye'er."

"I believed what you said, thinking that as long as I treated the Fang family well, the Fang family would be able to support Ye'er and me and protect us from any storm."

"I've believed your every cry of poverty and tried every way to raise money for you. I can't afford to eat or wear anything. I'm a dignified imperial concubine, but I have less than a hundred taels of private money. My clothes and jewelry are all outdated. I can't even afford a decent headdress or the tea ceremony for my daughter-in-law."

"I have money, good things, and nice clothes here. As long as you like them, I will let you take them without saying a word. It is not an exaggeration to say that I am open-hearted to you."

"I thought I could get sincerity in return."

"After going through this, I realized, hahahaha, in your eyes, I am just a money bag. You take everything I do for you for granted."

The concubine smiled sadly but resolutely: "Since I am the daughter who is married off and the water that has been poured out, then I will do as you wish and become the dirty water that you have poured out, and sever all ties with you."

Fang Zhang was stunned: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"Are you crazy? You've grown so powerful that you dare to break off relations with me? I won't allow it!"

The daughters-in-law of the Fang family were also dumbfounded.

They knew very well that the Fang family was able to dominate Shangjing thanks to the power of the Concubine Dowager and Yu Lingye.

If the Concubine Dowager breaks off relations with the Fang family, the Fang family will be on the verge of destruction.

In particular, the Fang family has offended many people over the years.

Those people turned a blind eye to the Fang family out of respect for the Concubine Dowager, Yu Lingye, and the forces left by the late emperor.

If Prince Ling’s Mansion doesn’t care about the Fang family.

The Fang family will be severely retaliated by them.

Only then did they become frightened and began to talk at once to dissuade him.

"My mother was also angry at the time, her mind was confused, and she said some stupid things and did some stupid things."

"Yes, you know Mother's temper. She's old, impulsive, and easily angered. When she gets angry, she loses her composure. But Mother doesn't mean any harm."

"That's right. No matter what, we are still family members, even if our bones are broken, our tendons are still connected. We can't let this little thing separate us."

The toffee looked at these people quietly.

A mocking smile appeared on her lips: "What were you doing when I was being beaten just now?"

"Why didn't you stop it then?"

"Why are you getting anxious now?"

Everyone looked unhappy.

Fang Zhang was very angry, and if they went forward they would only get beaten. Who would be stupid enough to go forward?

They didn't dare to speak directly, nor did they say anything else.

Fang Zhang was a little panicked.

But she has always been used to being bossy.

It is absolutely impossible to ask her to apologize to the concubine and give in.

Fang Zhang said angrily, "Fang Yingnan, think carefully before you speak."

The Toffee lowered her eyes.

She had been in the palace for more than 20 years and had a noble status, but she was beaten to death by Fang Zhang. It was so funny, the kind of funny that no one would believe it if you told it.

She had had enough. She had had enough.

But, but...

She still felt so uncomfortable and painful when she thought about really breaking off the relationship.

Xie Yingmian, who was watching the show on the side, felt that the atmosphere was about right.

She patted Yu Lingye's shoulder and whispered, "Play your patient role well, act according to the situation, and cough at the right time."

Yu Lingye: "Don't worry."

"My words may be harsh, but I'll say it first." Xie Yingmian said, "The Empress Dowager is the concubine of the late emperor, a noble concubine listed in the imperial imperial records, and of a very high status."

"Ms. Fang Zhang attacked the imperial concubine, which is a violation of her superiors. According to the law, she should be punished with fifty strokes of the cane and imprisonment for a minimum of three years."

"The other accomplices who prevented the maids and servants from Fengzaoyuan from rescuing the people are also committing insubordination and knowingly breaking the law. According to the law, they will be punished with twenty strokes of the cane as a warning to others."

Fang Zhang and the others' faces turned pale with fright.

Fang Zhang stared at Xie Yingmian intently: "Who do you think you are..."

Bang!

The wooden stick in Xie Yingmian's hand fell on Fang Zhang with a bang.

Fang Zhang was in so much pain that she broke out in a cold sweat.

She pointed at Xie Yingmian and said, "You, you dare to hit me? You dare to hit an elder? I will ruin your reputation."

Xie Yingmian: "I am Princess Ling, my status is more noble than yours. You spoke rudely to me, I am just teaching you some etiquette, don't make such a fuss."

"I have said everything I need to say. The guards and torture instruments are ready." Xie Yingmian said to the Concubine Dowager, "You are the victim. From now on, you have the final say."
