Chapter 235 The Ruthless Consort Abuses the Little Eunuch?

this……

All the servants in Haitang Palace were dumbfounded. They never expected that Meng Yanzhi would go to such lengths for a mere eunuch. It was truly terrifying.

But it was clear that Meng Yanzhi felt this was not enough, not even enough. She could be more ruthless, even more ruthless!

These people deserve to be treated even more harshly!

Meng Yanzhi held Lingfei's fingernails and stayed by Xiaoyumi's side until late at night, when Xiaoyumi finally woke up.

He opened his eyes and saw Meng Yanzhi standing beside him. He was stunned for a moment, then immediately got up and said, "Your Majesty!"

"Lie down."

Meng Yanzhi pressed down on his shoulder.

"The doctor said it's just a superficial injury and you'll recover quickly, don't worry."

"Your hand is still there, you'll be fine."

As she spoke, Meng Yanzhi placed Lingfei's fingernails directly next to Xiaoyumi's pillow.

"I have avenged you."

This...this?

Little Corn turned pale with fright, staring in disbelief at the bloody fingernails, then at Meng Yanzhi, and suddenly burst into tears.

"This lowly servant is not worthy of Your Highness's risk!"

"This matter will definitely not end so easily, Your Majesty. Please don't worry about me. Kill me, that's the only way to ensure everyone's safety. Your Majesty, I beg you!"

Little Corn scrambled to his feet without a care, knelt on the ground, and began kowtowing to Meng Yanzhi. His hands were covered in blood, making him look quite horrifying!

Seeing this, Meng Yanzhi immediately reached out and helped him up, then took a handkerchief and wiped away his tears.

"Before my master died, he entrusted you to me, so I will not let you suffer any injustice easily."

"No matter who it is, I'm not afraid of blood for blood, tooth for tooth!"

Meng Yanzhi gave a cold snort. She had worked so hard to get to where she was today, not to suffer humiliation in another place.

Whether it's Consort Ling or the Great General, she will take revenge on anyone who dares to harm those around her, bit by bit. This is only the first step; she will also avenge her master's death sooner or later.

"Just rest well, you don't need to worry about the rest."

Meng Yanzhi held Xiao Yumi down, stood up, and strode outside.

All day today, Xiao Xingyuan was talking to the people of the Sixth Department about the cabbage and potato matter, and it wasn't until late at night that the matter was finally settled.

Xiao Xingyuan picked up his teacup, took a sip, and before he could even breathe a sigh of relief, he saw Wang Huanhai walk in with a grim expression.

Looking at Xiao Xingyuan's bloodshot eyes, Wang Huanhai was momentarily at a loss as to whether he should or should tell him about it.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Consort Meng, have you returned?"

Xiao Xingyuan put down his teacup and looked at Wang Huanhai with a relaxed expression.

He wanted to see what this old man was hiding from him!

Wang Huanhai took a deep breath and knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, Consort Meng has caused trouble. She... she smashed Consort Ling's palace and pulled out Consort Ling's fingernails. Now the entire harem is in chaos, and even the General's Mansion knows about this."

What?

Xiao Xingyuan even doubted his ears. How could such a big thing have happened in just one day?

But Xiao Xingyuan soon found it strange. He knew Meng Yanzhi well; she was definitely not a ruthless person, so there must be a reason why she was so angry.

Do you know why?

Xiao Xingyuan sat there, his eyebrows furrowed tightly, staring at Wang Huanhai.

Wang Huanhai knew that Consort Ling would definitely not gain any advantage over Xiao Xingyuan.

He spoke frankly and directly: "To be honest, it was Consort Ling who went too far. She... arrested the eunuchs around Consort Meng, tortured them, and even pulled out ten of their fingernails, which is why they are like this."

But even so, so what? A master is a master, and a servant's life is worthless anyway.

Even if it's just ten fingernails, what difference does it make if it's just one life?

Xiao Xingyuan got up and walked towards the Begonia Palace, but before he knew it, after taking only a few steps, many of the concubines in the harem rushed over to him.

They saw Xiao Xingyuan as if he were their savior, and knelt down in unison: "Your Majesty, we beg Your Majesty to do justice for Consort Ling, and for all the concubines in our harem! Consort Meng is so arrogant and domineering, and has done such a bloody thing. If she is not dealt with according to the palace rules, how are we supposed to face ourselves?"

Xiao Xingyuan looked at the dozen or so dark figures in front of him, his eyebrows furrowed tightly. How come he didn't remember having so many women around him before?

Where did all these people come from? There are so many of them!

These people were already disliked. If it were someone else who was favored, it would be fine, but it was a lowly Meng Yanzhi. They must have had a lot of resentment towards Meng Yanzhi.

They didn't dare to act recklessly because Meng Yanzhi was currently riding high, but now that she's caused such a big stir, they're bound to add fuel to the fire.

"Why are you making such a racket in the middle of the night instead of staying in your own palace?"

"All of you, get back here!"

Without a second thought, Xiao Xingyuan let out a cold shout, and the oppressive aura of an emperor instantly swept over everyone present.

Everyone thought that Xiao Xingyuan would be furious about this, but they never expected that he would start by scolding them.

They looked up at Xiao Xingyuan in disbelief.

The person closest to Xiao Xingyuan was Consort Shu, who had the best relationship with Consort Ling.

Her face was streaked with tears as she looked at Xiao Xingyuan in disbelief: "Your Majesty, such a thing has happened in the palace. Does Your Majesty really not care? Consort Ling is in excruciating pain and her condition is still not stable. Does Your Majesty not care at all?"

"She brought it on herself."

"To abuse private punishment in the palace, taking her fingernails is too lenient a punishment."

Xiao Xingyuan snorted disdainfully with a cold face.

If Consort Ling hadn't caused trouble for herself, how could things have turned out this way?

Xiao Xingyuan has no idea how Meng Yanzhi is feeling. What if she stops talking to him because of this?

In the end, it's all because of these ignorant women who only know how to cause him trouble!

"Get out! All of you, get back home!"

Xiao Xingyuan waved his hand impatiently and turned to walk towards the Begonia Palace.

"Sister Shufei?"

Everyone followed behind Consort Shu, kneeling on the spot and watching Xiao Xingyuan turn away impatiently.

They were all dumbfounded, never expecting this outcome, and for a moment they couldn't even find their leader.

Consort Shu slumped down dejectedly: "Let's go back, everyone will go."

She knew very well that Xiao Xingyuan was a man of his word, and in the current situation, Lingfei's suffering would probably be in vain.

"Your Majesty, does he really like Meng Yanzhi that much?"

Consort Shu looked somewhat dejected and muttered something under her breath.
