Chapter 385 Killing the Chicken to Frighten the Monkey

Wu Xiuyuan is not the only one Tang Bao wants to deal with.

The concubine in Wu Xiuyuan's mansion who was involved in the murder of Xu, and the concubine who took advantage of Xu's daughter's flesh and blood to bully others and enjoy wealth, were also ordered to be taken to the labor camp.

Wu Xiuyuan was beaten with a stick, and even on the guillotine, he kept yelling at Tang Bao to hand over the evidence, otherwise...

Unfortunately, he didn't have time to report Tang Bao and severely denounce him. In the end, he was beheaded and died with his eyes open.

Wu Xiuyuan's favorite concubine died with Wu Xiuyuan in public, and the concubine's daughter was sentenced to serve in a labor camp for thirty years.

"I don't accept it!" The plump concubine's daughter with skin as white as snow had her hands tied behind her back and was kneeling on the ground. She roared heartbreakingly with a look of indignation on her face.

She is getting married, and the wedding date is in two months!

Her future husband is also an official. He is young and promising with a bright future. That is her mother... It is her mother who has finally found a marriage for her!

"I didn't harm anyone, you have no evidence, you abused your power, you..."

Bang!

The guard stepped forward and slapped her hard, "Treason, offending Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess is a capital offense!"

Tang Bao lowered his eyes and looked at her. His young face was filled with a deep dignity that was completely inconsistent with his age. "Don't even mention that collective punishment is a common law. The fact that you 'knew about it but didn't report it' is an even greater crime!"

"Everything you enjoy that doesn't belong to you was built on the bones of others... You sit back and reap the fruits of others' labor, ignoring the suffering endured by the original owners... Those who profit from this are inherently guilty!"

"Even if I ordered you to be killed, you would not be wronged!" The little fellow had a well-reasoned answer, and every word he said was heart-wrenching.

"But..." The concubine's eyebrows were raised and she wanted to shout.

Chengfeng immediately ordered her tongue to be pulled out in public.

To prevent her from uttering obscene words in the future and insulting their young master!

In the end, the concubine's daughter didn't even have the strength to cry, and was dragged away by her arms, barely breathing.

No one cares about her life or death except her dead mother!

All the officials were terrified, and no one dared to look down on the little girl in front of them who was only eight or nine years old!

Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess is young but has ruthless methods... She beat and killed a court official in public without even batting an eyelid!

The regent's subordinates are even more ruthless and resolute, their methods are brutal...

All the officials present were trembling with fear, lowering their heads and holding their breath.

Not only did he not dare to look directly at the small figure on the chair, he didn't even dare to say a word.

They gritted their teeth, with only one thought in their minds: to settle the labor camp case as soon as possible and send these two "living devils", one big and one small, away as soon as possible!

Tang Bao sat on the armchair and watched them discuss it carefully, and let them each take up their tasks and start to do them.

At noon, the little girl finally had some free time. She wanted to go find her father to apologize so as not to make her mother angry.

Unexpectedly, when I tiptoed to the door and looked through the crack, I saw my mother holding a bowl of steaming dumplings.

Very good!

She had been eating cold food for several days, and finally she had something hot to eat!

Although Tang Bao doesn't like other sticky foods except for ox-sticky candy...

Just as she was about to push the door open, she heard a voice from inside the room that shocked her so much that it gave her goosebumps...

Actually, it was nothing special. Yun Che just said in a soft voice that he wasn't hungry, coaxing Shen Ying'er to eat first...

But the little fellow felt that he had never heard such a gentle and affectionate voice like Yun Che!

And it doesn't fit her father's personality... When Tang Bao heard it out of the blue, she felt more terrified than seeing a ghost!

"Could it be that Daddy is possessed by a ghost?" she muttered and continued to observe.

Daddy shook his head slightly and said he didn't want to eat. Mom was afraid of wasting food, so she ate it with a small spoon. Maybe Mom really didn't have much appetite at the moment, so she put down the bowl after eating only two and turned to do other things.

Just at this moment, Dad, who had just said he was not hungry, slowly picked up the bowl with the remaining dumplings, used the spoon used by Mom, and ate up all the remaining dumplings with a smile.

Not a single one was left for her!

Tang Bao suddenly became furious, clenched his fists, turned around and rushed back to his room.

Yun Yian, who came to look for her, saw her puffed cheeks and knew she was angry...

After hearing the reason from his servants, he immediately stepped forward and said gently, "Don't be angry, Your Highness. How could Doctor Shen forget you? You are her only and most beloved daughter! Maybe... maybe the dumplings she left for you will be delivered soon."

Tang Bao: "Really?"

Yun Yian nodded heavily. Tang Bao pursed his lips, crossed his arms, and sat on the armchair without saying a word.

She waits!

Yun Yian had never lied to her, and Tang Bao was willing to believe him.

So the little girl waited with an empty stomach, until dusk fell, but she didn't see anyone bringing her any snacks!

Everyone knew that she wouldn't starve, so except for those on duty, the rest went to catch up on their sleep as they were exhausted from running around day and night.

Xiao Tangbao finally couldn't hold it in anymore and was about to rush out angrily.

Yun Yian quickly stopped her and gently advised, "Don't be angry, sister Tangbao. I'll go make beggar's chicken for you, okay?"

Tang Bao raised his head, his eyes red and tears welling up in them. His voice was choked with grievance, "Do you think I'm just greedy? Do you think I have to eat those dumplings? You don't understand at all... This is not about the dumplings at all!"

Daddy is about to win Mom's heart. The two of them are getting closer and closer. I'm afraid that what awaits her in the future will not only be the willow branches in Mom's hand...

The two of them...I'm afraid they'll team up to deal with her...

I’m afraid that the happy days of being able to run around freely and stay in places everywhere will be gone!

Woo~

......

Xu's wronged soul was avenged. She looked at her brother, who was born of the same mother as her, and who took the initiative to take the responsibility of taking care of her daughter and wanted to support her daughter, and she left with satisfaction.

As expected, Xiao Tangbao gained a lot of merits.

But now that Yan Li is not here, Tang Bao looks at the increasing merit points in the merit book, and for a moment he doesn’t know what use they are... He can’t help feeling a sense of emptiness in his heart.

At night, after Shen Ying'er helped Tang Bao wash up carefully, the little guy fell asleep on the couch...

"Hey! Tangbao, wake up! Soup dumpling, little soup dumpling... come and look at Master~"

Master...is it really Master who has returned?

Tang Bao frowned slightly, she tried to relax herself and slowly opened her eyes...
