Chapter 159: I am a queen and I am so frustrated
Although it was Deng Xuelian who harmed people, if Deng Youning had not interfered that day, how could her own mother have been harmed by the crazy Deng Xuelian?
That bitch Deng Xuelian must die, and that vicious woman Deng Youning must not be let off easily!
"Someone, Princess Youning has entered the harem without permission. She should be executed!"
"Capture her for me and hand her over to Your Majesty for disposal."
The queen, dressed in black and white mourning clothes and holding a sword, was followed by hundreds of guards.
Even if Deng Youning had extraordinary skills and could poison and infect, her fists would not be able to defeat these hundreds of imperial guards.
What's more, this place is the harem.
She can't do anything rash.
The Queen's words left Concubine Li confused.
"Sister, it was my sister who invited the county lady here. It was she who saved my mother at the winter banquet at the Dai Mansion that day..."
Lipin wanted to continue explaining something, but the Queen gave her a sharp look that made her shut up instantly.
"I said she was trespassing, so she was trespassing!"
"Lipin, you are so used to having a good life that you have forgotten the time when you were the concubine who had to serve water to wash the feet of your elder sister?"
The Queen had plenty of ways to threaten Concubine Li and make her stand on her side.
Deng Youning gave Concubine Li a look.
She knew that Lipin's ability was limited and she couldn't save herself, so she let herself get into trouble.
"May I ask, Queen, is the palace well-guarded and impregnable?"
"Even if I'm good at martial arts, how could a woman like me get to Cuiwei Palace under the noses of so many imperial guards?"
"If I really broke in, then these imperial guards can be buried with me."
Deng Youning was almost laughed to death by the Queen.
You want to accuse her of a crime, but don't you want a reasonable one?
Or would hundreds of imperial guards accompany her in making trouble, just to allow her to take revenge on Deng Youning, even at the cost of losing their own heads?
"Smooth talker!"
"If you don't capture her, I will kill you right now!"
The queen held up a sword and pointed it at everyone angrily.
The commander of the Imperial Guard is their man, and the families and relatives of these imperial guards are also under her control.
She wanted to see who dared not to obey her orders!
At this moment, the nanny beside the Queen Mother also came to Cuiwei Palace.
When the commotion started just now, Concubine Li sent someone to invite the Queen Mother.
In this harem, the only one who can suppress the Queen is the Queen Mother.
"This old servant greets all the distinguished guests."
The nanny first bowed to everyone, then looked at Deng Youning anxiously.
"County Lady, why are you still hanging around here? The Queen Mother has been waiting for you for a long time!"
She looked so anxious that she wanted to pull Deng Youning away immediately.
Deng Youning reacted quickly and exchanged glances with Concubine Li.
This Lipin is clever and smart, and has a clear distinction between likes and dislikes. She is a person worth making friends with.
Once the Queen Mother's men arrived, the charge that the Queen wanted to accuse Deng Youning of trespassing into the harem was no longer valid.
She was so angry that she dropped her sword and was about to leave when the nanny stopped her.
"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother has something to say to you. I'll let this old servant bring it to you."
"Empress Dowager Feng Yan: Even though you are the queen, do you really think you can cover the sky with one hand? You brought the imperial guards to cause trouble today. I remember your mother just passed away and you fainted from grief. I don't blame you. I hope you can be alert and be a competent queen!"
The nanny delivered the message, using the empress dowager's tone and representing the empress dowager.
Although the queen was not convinced, she still had to bow to the nanny.
"By the way, the Queen Mother also said that if you can't be the Queen, you should give up this position as soon as possible. After all, there are too many concubines in the harem."
"And Your Highness, I hope you won't bring trouble to him because of your own behavior."
The nanny came up to the queen and whispered a warning.
It gave her the last bit of face as the mother of a country.
It was visible to the naked eye that the queen's face was hideous and her facial features were distorted.
The corners of her mouth turned down and her eyes were gloomy. She recalled that a few months ago on the Emperor's Birthday, when she wanted to punish Deng Youning, it was the Queen Mother who came out to stop her.
She felt that as long as the Queen Mother was still alive, she, as the Queen, would be really miserable!
Deng Youning caused the Wu family's decades of planning to lose all their assets; caused Shu'er to be demoted to a county lady and banished to Lin'an; and even caused her mother to die tragically!
She would never let go of any of these things.
Just wait and see!
The queen glared at Deng Youning again with resentment before finally leaving.
Deng Youning bowed to the nanny in gratitude.
"Thank you for coming on time, Mammy."
The nanny shook her head, her eyes full of sympathy for Deng Youning.
Even she felt that the queen was too presumptuous!
"No need to thank me, but the Queen Mother does invite you, so please go with me."
She looked at Jun Wenying who was standing beside her and added, "Princess Twelve, please come along as well."
Jun Wenying was a little confused when he was suddenly called out.
This royal grandmother has never been close to me, so why would she take the initiative to ask to see me today?
Are you going to cause me some trouble?
Deng Youning noticed her uneasiness, held her hand, and comforted her: "I'm here to accompany you."
The secret room of the Queen's bedroom.
Deng Xuelian, who had been tortured beyond recognition, knelt at the Queen's feet, her body covered in blood. Her dress had long been soaked with blood, which had dried naturally, emitting a foul odor.
But miraculously, she didn't miscarry the baby.
It seems that the queen still can't bear to part with her unborn grandson.
She has been tortured for three to five days since the Dai family's winter banquet, and her mind is now blurred.
She knew that if it weren't for this child, she would have paid for Old Madam Wu's life long ago.
"Queen, please give me a quick death!"
She couldn't stand the torture any more.
It wasn't fatal, but it was painful and humiliating.
"Want to die?"
"You deserve it?!"
The queen glared at her fiercely, the murderer who killed her mother.
If the prince had not been almost thirty years old and still had no children, she would have wanted to send Deng Xuelian to be buried with her mother.
When she thought about how she had just been scolded by the empress dowager's servants, she became even angrier.
"Come here, strip this bitch naked and throw her to the Imperial Guards camp."
"Tell them that as long as she doesn't abort the baby, they can do whatever they want!"
Upon hearing the order, several maids came forward, held down Deng Xuelian's limbs and began to strip off her clothes.
Just by listening to these two sentences from the Queen, she had already guessed what kind of extreme punishment was waiting for her next.
"I was once the daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, so please don't go too far, Queen!"
Deng Xuelian still had some dignity. She would rather die than surrender and just bit her tongue.
The maids pried open her mouth and stuffed a piece of cloth inside, not even giving her a chance to commit suicide.
Deng Xuelian was in despair. Her spirit could no longer bear it and she fainted.
The queen did not intend to let her go and continued to watch her being tortured.
After torturing her, the most skilled physician in the Imperial Medical Bureau was invited to treat her and preserve her pregnancy.
"My queen, the Yanei is planning to take action tonight."
Seeing the queen coming out of the secret room after having a good time, the female official who received the message from the Wu family reported.
"Got it. Let them be more careful. If they get killed this time, I won't be responsible!"
As for these brothers from her natal family, the queen also believed that their existence was to be used as a knife for her.
Today, she and her son wanted to make the Deng and Han families unhappy.
So what does it matter if the Wu family sacrifices a younger brother born to a concubine in order to satisfy the mother and son?
