Chapter 37
She was drugged
That period of time.
My aunt was like a madman, not eating, drinking or sleeping, searching everywhere for her cousin. But in just a few days, her hair turned white, and she was exhausted and emaciated. She was trapped in the Song Mansion and only got the news after a long time. Finally, she used her cousin's horoscope to calculate and gave a rough location.
Finally, more than a month later, my cousin's body, which had already decayed beyond recognition, was found in the mud at the bottom of the lake.
Seeing the token on his body, the aunt rushed forward and hugged the rotten body and refused to let go no matter what, until she fainted. The palace officials snatched the body and handed it over to the Ministry of Punishment for disposal at will.
When the aunt opened her eyes, her son was no longer in her arms. She screamed and cried hysterically and never recovered from the blow. She felt like she was living a life worse than death.
Even though she was in such a miserable state, Empress Song did not intend to let her go. She put medicine in her rotten rice and then arranged for a assassin to sneak into her inner palace.
Then he led the emperor forward.
When the emperor rushed to the inner hall, what he saw was that outrageous scene.
And aunt.
Although she was drugged, she still retained some rationality and clarity. She kept biting her tongue in an attempt to commit suicide, but the assassin would not let her go.
so.
The emperor saw that his aunt's mouth was full of blood, tears were flowing from her eyes, and her expression was extremely painful, but she couldn't help making sounds of love in her throat because of the medicine.
What a torture that was! Jiang Zhaoying felt cold all over when she thought about it!
The emperor was furious and executed his aunt immediately, leaving the body to the Ministry of Punishment to deal with at will.
"Your humble servant greets Madam Song and Princess Le'an."
She almost gritted her teeth when she said these two names, especially the word "princess", which made her eyes contain countless mockery.
Princess Tingyun's mother was not favored, so her title was just a small princess.
…
The inner hall fell into silence.
Empress Song took the hot tea handed to her by the palace maid and drank it slowly without saying a word, looking at Jiang Zhaoying, or even asking her to stand up.
Jiang Zhaoying maintained the posture of saluting, and her eyes, hidden by her long fan-shaped eyelashes, were filled with a strong murderous intent.
These people.
Even if they don't look for me, I will find them.
for a long time.
It took so long that Jiang Zhaoying was about to freeze that Empress Song finished her tea. She then smashed the teacup at Jiang Zhaoying's feet with a bang and said coldly.
"My second sister-in-law is really kindhearted. She didn't despise you for being the daughter of a small imperial astronomical institution. She welcomed you into her home through a long street. You turned the Song Mansion upside down, but she still tolerated you. You didn't even want to kneel down when she offered you tea, but she still didn't blame you. But you poisoned the entire Song family, and I can't tolerate you anymore."
"Jiang Zhaoying, kneel down before me. You are not allowed to get up until I tell you to."
Jiang Zhaoying raised her eyes and looked at Empress Song coldly.
Empress Song was stunned.
Then she sneered angrily. It had been a long time since she saw someone who was not afraid of her.
With murderous intent surging in his eyes, he clapped his hands and all the palace servants outside rushed in and surrounded Jiang Zhaoying.
"Jiang Zhaoying, are you going to kneel or not?"
If she couldn't suppress Jiang Zhaoying's arrogance in her palace, then no one in the Song Mansion could control her.
It would be better if she knew how to be afraid and go for help. She is worried that she has no reason to build Ripple Palace!
"Everything your majesty said happened for a reason."
Jiang Zhaoying answered calmly, neither humble nor arrogant, and Empress Song sneered.
"You are the one who caused this, but you actually let the entire Song Mansion take responsibility for it, Jiang Zhaoying, you are going too far."
In the yard.
Shu Yun knelt on the ground, listening to Empress Song humiliating her own young lady. She was so angry that her face turned pale and her whole body was shaking.
She just knew it.
There is definitely no good thing going on this trip of the young lady to the palace.
"What should I do? What should I do? This servant is really useless and cannot protect the young lady."
Shu Yun lay on the ground with tears streaming down her face, muttering to herself constantly.
And the inner hall.
Jiang Zhaoying looked at Empress Song steadily. Seeing that she dared to disobey, Princess Le'an stood up, took a stick and hit Jiang Zhaoying's knee hard. Then there was a thud, and Jiang Zhaoying knelt in the debris.
Blood.
Soon her knees were wet and the inner hall was filled with the smell of blood.
The fragments bit by bit pierced into the flesh, and the stinging pain spread from the knees to the whole body. Jiang Zhaoying knelt with a frown, and a layer of fine beads of sweat soon appeared on her forehead.
Seeing her trembling in pain, Empress Song took Princess Le'an's hand and smiled.
"The emperor still has a way. People like this should be treated like this. They are really from a small family and don't know any rules."
After saying that.
Empress Song stood up, walked towards the couch, and yawned lazily.
"I'm a little tired. I'll take a nap first. Keep a close eye on her and don't let her slack off."
"Yes, I will keep an eye on you. Please sleep peacefully, Madam."
The palace maids responded carefully and helped Empress Song go to bed.
Princess Le'an smiled very happily. She circled around Jiang Zhaoying again and again, then leaned over to look at her beautiful face.
"Brother Chengyu is so kind, but you want to harm him. Are you blind?"
Seeing her speaking with a smile, but the movements of her hands were extremely vicious, she felt a gust of fragrant wind coming over. Jiang Zhaoying leaned back and grabbed her hand, and saw a thin hairpin in Princess Le'an's hand.
If she had dodged a little slower, her eyes would have been poked out.
"You dare to arrest me?"
Princess Le'an looked at her wrist which had been pinched red, and her vicious eyes suddenly changed to one filled with horror and fear, and then she screamed.
"Mother, Mother, she wants to kill me, she wants to kill me."
Empress Song, who had originally closed her eyes, slowly opened them and looked at her daughter with a smile on her lips.
"Someone come."
The palace maids and eunuchs all came forward, and Empress Song pointed at Jiang Zhaoying.
"Beat him. Beat him hard for me."
Pop.
The whip hit his back hard, like a poisonous snake burrowing into his skin and flesh. On the surface, he looked fine, but inside it was piercing his heart and lungs.
This is a special whip made by the Chaoxia Palace. It is not difficult to hit people with it, but the blow is extremely heavy. The clothes look intact as new, but the body is full of holes.
Empress Song liked this whip very much.
Just right.
Didn’t Jiang Zhaoying cause Cheng Yu to be beaten with thirty sticks?
Then let her also experience the feeling of thirty lashes, so that she can learn her lesson. She will not dare to be arrogant again, and she will not dare to provoke the Song Mansion and damage the reputation of the Song Mansion.
Snap...
Another heavy whip hit Jiang Zhaoying's shoulder. The severe pain all over her body made her fall forward, with a fishy and sweet taste in her throat.
She pursed her red lips tightly, swallowed the blood, raised her eyes and looked coldly at Empress Song and Princess Le'an.
"That's all."
Seeing that her face was as pale as snow, something bad would happen if the fight continued. Empress Song pretended that she had rested, raised her hand lazily, and the servants quickly withdrew.
"Since you have entered the Song family, you should take care of the Song family and think about the Song family. Cheng Yu is your husband, you should respect and love him. If Shen Yuefu wants to be a concubine, you can raise her as a concubine. Sending her back to embarrass her will bring you and the Song family no good."
"Go back and apologize to your mother-in-law and husband, and then give your relatives a generous gift and apologize. I will make the decision for you and let this matter go."
"but……"
Empress Song walked over to the chair in front of Jiang Zhaoying and sat down again with a gloomy look in her eyes.
"If you refuse my toast and drink the penalty wine, I will be rude to you."
"Back off."
"Le'an, accompany mother to appreciate the flowers."
When Empress Song looked at her daughter, her sinister eyes were replaced with tenderness. Princess Le'an came forward with a smile, and Empress Song led her and her entourage out of the palace in a grand manner.
The inner hall suddenly became deserted. Jiang Zhaoying looked around at the spaciousness and luxury with sweat on her forehead.
The pain in her body came in waves, and it made her eyes go black.
Holding the armrests of the chair tightly, he slowly... and laboriously... stood up.
Raise your eyes.
A strange sneer suddenly appeared on her face!
