The wails of women came from the main house.
"It's not me! It's really not me! Spare me, Your Majesty!"
"Stop hitting me, it hurts! Spare my life! Help! Someone come!"
[Wow, the emperor's uncle really went home to kill someone. The knife is good, and he should kill a vicious woman like Yang Peixin with a sharp knife.]
At this time, Debao had already come to the inner courtyard with Xia Miaoyuan in his arms. Xia Miaoyuan listened attentively to the sounds in the house, with an excited expression on his face as if he had eaten something big.
With a "bang", Xia Zhengqi pushed the door open and walked in.
The people standing at the gate of the courtyard immediately stretched their necks and looked inside out of curiosity.
In the flower hall, a throne was placed in the middle, and Princess Yang of Jing was firmly trapped on the chair.
Yang's body was covered in blood and whip marks, and her clothes were torn.
Prince Jing stood in front of Yang with a horsewhip in his hand.
He was shaking all over with rage, and his face had turned a frightening purple.
"Prince Jing, stop!" Xia Zhengqi stepped forward and snatched the whip from Prince Jing's hand.
"Daddy, are you here just to spoil my fun? I still want to see the Emperor's uncle slashing people." Xia Miaoyuan pouted in dissatisfaction.
"She is the Princess of Daxia, a lady of the imperial court, after all. No matter what mistakes she made, she shouldn't allow you to torture her like this!" Xia Zhengqi said sternly.
Prince Jing fell into his chair and shouted, "I don't care, I just want this vicious woman to tell the truth!"

"I'm innocent, I didn't do anything!"
"I have worked diligently in the palace for nearly 20 years, raising children, serving the prince, and managing the affairs of the inner and outer courts. I have worked so hard, and yet, your Highness, you have wronged me so..."
Yang's cry and story were so touching that even the uninformed eunuch Debao had tears in his eyes after listening to her.
Xia Miaoyuan was so disgusted by Yang's performance that she wanted to vomit.
[Bah! You're such a shameless bitch! Back then, you searched high and low for ways to secretly kill Xia Chengguang, who was only one year old. Now you're pretending to be an innocent little white lotus!]
