Chapter 61: The Prince Consort Was Killed

"Plus, Yu'er is easy to coax. Tell him about your troubles, talk about how difficult it is to be a father-in-law, and how unfair it is to be a son-in-law. Then he will believe it."

"That silly boy has always admired me and stood on my side."

"The princess dotes on him very much. She is afraid that her son will fall out with her. For Yu'er's sake, she will not do anything to me."

With a bang, the door was smashed open.

The two people were exposed to the sunlight in their disheveled state.

Prince Consort Zhao's first reaction was to pull the quilt to cover himself, not caring at all about the mistress who had just called him his darling.

Huai Niang could only pull the other corner of the quilt over herself and shrink into the bed.

"How dare you! How dare you, a desperate slave, come and disturb us!"

The eunuch in eunuch uniform came in and said, "I'm sorry, Prince Consort, it's a bastard."

The shrill voice made one know it was a eunuch.

The prince consort was stunned, not knowing how someone from the palace could have broken into the Dream Garden.

"Father-in-law, what are you doing?"

"His Majesty has issued an order. The Prince Consort should follow the Za family back to the Princess's residence to receive the order."

Welcoming the imperial edict was a solemn matter, and it certainly couldn't be done in the outer room he had set up.

The eunuch said, "Take it away."

Several guards rushed forward, lifted up Prince Zhao and walked out.

He wasn't even given a chance to put on his clothes.

"No, wait, let me get my clothes ready!"

"Eunuch! What do you mean?"

"I am the consort of Princess Guangde! You little bastards! How dare you treat me like this! Wait till I tell the princess, and you'll be in trouble!"

He kept twisting and roaring, but the guards held him firmly, making it impossible for him to escape.

As he was about to reach the door of the house, he was about to go out on the street with his bare chest.

"Eunuch, Eunuch, please, I am the royal consort after all. It is a disgrace to the royal family to go out on the street wearing only a pair of trousers!"

The father-in-law, who had been smiling and silent, turned around and comforted him: "Don't worry."

Prince Consort Zhao breathed a sigh of relief and said that he was a prince consort after all.

This eunuch certainly wouldn't dare to go out on the street without even giving him clothes to wear.

As a result, the eunuch hadn't finished his sentence when he said, "Soon it won't be."

Prince Consort Zhao:?

Is that what he meant?

The eunuch didn't give him a chance to think and directly had him carried out.

The streets of the capital are very bustling as soon as you go out.

People around saw a man being carried away with his upper body naked.

Because the guards were clearing the way, they didn't dare to go forward to see, but they still gathered around to watch the excitement from a distance.

And those here are not necessarily all ordinary people, there are also other dignitaries.

In less than half a day, he would be disgraced throughout the capital.

He was carried back to the princess's mansion, where he lived a miserable life.

The moment he saw the plaque, he was not even afraid of the coming storm, but rather felt fortunate.

It's finally over. No more being watched like a monkey.

As soon as he entered, a group of people turned to look at him at the same time.

They were all old acquaintances—the eldest princesses’ and their husbands-in-law and the grand princesses’ and their husbands-in-law in the capital.

Turning my head again, I saw a group of women sitting next to me. They were the princesses.

When they saw him being carried in naked, the princes-in-law said nothing.

Some princesses immediately turned their heads away and covered their faces with their sleeves.

But there are some who just look past it.

But when he saw the slim body and the well-defined abdominal muscles, he curled his lips in disgust and stopped looking at her.

The eunuch had Consort Zhao tied to the middle rack, and he himself stood in the middle with his back to the bound and gagged Consort Zhao.

He cleared his throat and said, "Your Majesty ordered you all to come here to watch the execution."

"The husband of Princess Guangde openly kept a concubine. Your Majesty ordered the princess to divorce her husband and castrate him."

"I hope all the princes-in-law will take this as a warning and serve the princess diligently without any disobedience."

Both sides were in a state of rage. A high-born prince consort stepped forward, bowed to the eunuch and asked, "Eunuch, keeping a concubine is indeed a mistake, but is castration too cruel?"

In fact, he didn't think there was anything wrong, but who let them marry the princess?

The eunuch smiled as usual, "His Majesty said that if anyone feels that this is too cruel, please pity Prince Consort Zhao and come up to take his place."

The Prince Consort who was speaking: "Not cruel, not cruel, not cruel at all, he deserves it."

Prince Consort Zhao: “Mmmmm!”

The eunuch turned around and said to Prince Consort Zhao, "Prince Consort, that's not right. His Majesty has ordered you to divorce me."

He seemed to be comforting her: "Mr. Zhao, executioners are all trained. This knife has killed many people. Maybe it has been used by various families."

"Soon, you will become a slave like the Zajia family."

Eunuchs also hold grudges. Did you think he didn't hear me calling him a eunuch slave before?

He ordered people to put screens in front of the princesses to avoid polluting their eyes.

The princes-in-law did not have this treatment and had to face the blood after their pants were taken off.

With a scream and blood flowing out, the princes-in-law tightened their crotches.

Many people even think about whether they have done anything wrong to their wives in the past and whether they can make amends.

They don't want to be suppressed.

The eunuch was very satisfied with their expressions. After this incident, His Majesty's goal was achieved. No prince consort would dare to ride on the heads of the princesses anymore.

But Zhao Qin and Zhao Yu in the palace didn't know all this.

Especially Zhao Yu.

The eldest princess begged not to tell her younger son, saying that the emperor and the empress dowager were not talkative people.

The palace people who knew about the situation were all close to them and kept their mouths shut.

The only one who talked a lot was Bei Jingchu, but unfortunately Zhao Yu couldn't understand baby talk.

The matter was kept secret for the time being.

Zhao Yu was still hoping that his mother would forgive his scumbag father for having a mistress.

At this time, Zhou Huanjiu came back from school and was ready to take out the only play time of the day to play with the fat baby Jingchu.

But there were two more children in Renshu Palace.

"Who are you?" This question was asked by Zhao Yu.

The maid next to her introduced: "Mr. Yu, this is Miss Zhou, the niece of Her Majesty the Queen Mother."

After revealing Zhou Huanjiu's identity, Zhao Yu's gaze turned contemptuous: "Oh~ Is this the child of my grandmother's younger brother who has been reduced to a pariah?"
