Chapter 638 Gouging Out the Eyes

The Great Chu Emperor looked at Madam Jiang in front of him with sharp eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Madam Jiang, I have to believe what you said."

When saying this, the Great Chu Emperor even raised a smile on his face.

Those who are familiar with His Majesty know that he is a little angry now.

But Mrs. Jiang was not aware of this. Since Mr. Jiang had been transferred back from outside, it was naturally the first time for Mrs. Jiang to meet the emperor.

So when she saw the smile on His Majesty's face, she even thought that His Majesty believed her words and wanted to forgive her, and she kowtowed in a hurry: "Thank you..."

But before she could finish her words, the next moment, the words spoken by the Emperor of Great Chu threw her into the abyss again. For a moment, she seemed to have fallen into an ice cellar.

"You tell me." Before Madam Jiang finished speaking, the Emperor of Great Chu turned to look at Bai Ling and motioned her to explain the matter.

Meng Quande was very perceptive. He stepped forward, pulled the cloth out of Bai Ling's mouth, and then stuffed it back into Mrs. Jiang's mouth.

Lu Xingwan on the side couldn't help laughing again.

[This Meng Quande is a bit too careless! ]

[Isn't this a bit dirty? ]

The Great Chu Emperor turned his head to glance at the cloth in Mrs. Jiang's mouth, and seemed to still see Bai Ling's saliva.

She suppressed the disgust in her heart and did not look in Bai Ling's direction, but just stared at the ground in front of her.

It's called the floor, but it's actually a carpet.

Meng Quande felt distressed again, as the Ministry of Internal Affairs had just replaced the carpet yesterday.

What if His Majesty gets angry again and smashes the cups again? Wouldn’t that mean...the carpet will be in trouble too?

When Bai Ling saw that His Majesty had given her the opportunity, she also kowtowed: "Your Majesty, I dare not."

Compared to Mrs. Jiang's panic, Bai Ling seemed calmer.

"I was just going to the Yu Garden to pick a plum blossom for my princess. I happened to meet Mrs. Jiang on the way and talked to her for a few words."

"I never thought that Madam Jiang would bring this upon me."

I have to say that Bai Ling is much stronger than Lu Xinghui.

Her aggrieved look was more realistic than Lu Xinghui's.

If Lu Xingwan hadn't heard it with his own ears, he would have believed it.

Lu Xing took a step forward and looked at the Great Chu Emperor in front of him with a determined look: "I heard what they said. The two of them just wanted to harm mother."

"They want to give this medicine to mother. Since father knows what this medicine is, he knows their purpose."

"My mother never publicized it. I never thought someone would want to harm him in such a despicable way."

Pei Chuyan on the side looked at the little princess in surprise.

I didn't expect that Mrs. Jiang and Bai Ling would have such an idea. No wonder the princess suddenly had an outburst.

But how did the princess hear their voices?

Could it be that the princess has good hearing?

The princess's tone was firm, which made Mrs. Jiang and Bai Ling look at her in surprise.

The two spoke in very low voices and it was very empty around them. How did Princess Yong'an hear their conversation?

Bai Ling reacted quickly and realized that Princess Yong'an was just deceiving her.

[Father, please take care of it! If you can deal with them impartially today, that would be the best.]

[If Father cannot deal with this impartially, both of them must die tonight.]

Thinking of this, Lu Xingwan sighed softly.

[But by comparison, I would rather make this known to the world.]

[Let everyone see that my mother cannot be offended! ]

The Emperor of Great Chu did not care about the lives of these two people, and in his eyes, what Wanwan said must be true.

He knew that Qingyan was always kind in the palace.

Because of her kindness, many people have come to her for help.

For example, Concubine Yao, who had just been punished by him at the palace banquet today. Thinking of this, the Emperor of Great Chu felt that his punishment of Concubine Yao was too lenient.

I think Mrs. Jiang might have had the same idea.

Thinking of this, the Great Chu Emperor looked at Meng Quande who was standing beside him and said, "Take her away and behead her."

The direction he was pointing to was naturally Bai Ling.

Although this maidservant served Xing Hui well, she was just a servant after all. If he wanted to deal with her, he would do so.

Thinking of this, the Great Chu Emperor felt that it was not enough, and added: "Inform the six palaces that Bai Ling colluded with outsiders and tried to do something improper to the Royal Concubine. She has been caught on the spot by Princess Yong'an."

When the Great Chu Emperor gave this order, Lin Ji on the side quickly picked up the rag that had just been stuffed into Mrs. Jiang's mouth from the ground and stuffed it into Bai Ling's mouth again.

【Alas......】

[Forget it, you're not going to put it in my mouth anyway.]

Bai Ling didn't expect that His Majesty would deal with her first. She shook her head and tried to beg His Majesty, but she didn't expect that her mouth was blocked and she had no chance to speak at all.

Meng Quande acted very quickly and had someone drag her out.

Bai Ling's eyes were filled with despair. She had never thought that she would be executed by His Majesty just because she had spoken a few words to Madam Jiang today.

He looked at Lu Xingwan with vicious eyes, full of resentment.

It’s all Lu Xingwan’s fault. It’s all her fault. If it weren’t for her, how could I have ended up like this?

But Bai Ling didn't expect that before she was dragged out, the Emperor of Great Chu noticed her vicious look.

Even if he opened his mouth: "Meng Quande, dig out her eyes."

She's just a maid, how dare she be disrespectful to Princess Yong'an?

How audacious!

When Mrs. Jiang heard His Majesty order Bai Ling to be dragged out, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

She knew that no matter what, she was a lady of noble birth, a member of an official family, and His Majesty would not easily attack her, while Bai Ling was just a maid.

Your Majesty's decision to punish her was not a casual one.

But when she heard that His Majesty was going to poke out Bai Ling's eyes, Mrs. Jiang couldn't help but shudder in her heart.

In the past, everyone said that His Majesty was a very violent person. Later, I heard that after having Princess Yong'an, His Majesty became a lot kinder. But now it seems that he is just like that.

Mrs. Jiang even felt that her eyes were a little sore.

She quickly lowered her head, not daring to look at anyone present, including the Emperor of Great Chu, and naturally including the ferocious little princess standing in front of her.

She is simply more terrifying than the Emperor of Chu.

Mrs. Jiang just lay on the ground trembling, waiting for His Majesty's punishment.

In her heart, she was still secretly hoping that, as a lady of the imperial court, His Majesty would not do anything to her.

Unexpectedly...

"Meng Quande, go contact the Minister of Works and ask him to come see me." After saying this, the Emperor of Great Chu glanced meaningfully at Madam Jiang beside him. He also knew that it was not easy for a woman to live in the rear house, but no one should touch them, mother and daughter.
