Song Jiao waved her hand, letting Taozi leave, and then slowly said, "You worry too much. What's the difference between me and my sister? You were married because your mother has a good relationship with the queen, and I was married because I saved the emperor and the queen."
"The jealousy before was simply because I couldn't stand Jiang Ningyao. An unmarried woman, arm in arm with a man, and asking for things everywhere, is just disgusting."
Jiang Ningliu shared the same feeling. She had someone she liked before, but his relationship with Zhe Jiang Ningyao was indeed disgusting.
So, she just told the truth in front of her father that day, causing Jiang Ningyao to be scolded, but she didn't expect that this person would actually poison her, not only ruining her body, but also fanning the flames behind her back.
"In that case, I will not bother you, sister. Just be careful these days."
After watching Jiang Ningliu leave, Song Jiao slowly withdrew her gaze, a barely perceptible smile curling up at the corner of her mouth. "Boys, right? Who doesn't know how to play?"
The next morning
Song Jiao was awakened while still asleep. The person who woke her up was none other than the maidservant in charge of Yuchi Shang. She put on her clothes and walked to the door in a few steps. She opened the door and slapped the maidservant who knocked on it several times. "Are you calling me back? Can't you see I'm still resting?"
The beaten maid covered her face with her hands, looking incredulous. Yesterday she went out to purchase things, and when she came back she heard that the princess had beaten the prince, causing him to have to stay in bed for several months. So this morning she came to find the princess to ask what was going on.
"How dare you hit me?"
"This princess doesn't even need a reason to beat Yuchi Shang, who do you think you are?" Song Jiao didn't understand, what was wrong with this world?
As a princess, would you be questioned for hitting a maid?
"What? I used to be polite to you because you were close to Yuchi Shang! What? Are you taking chicken feathers as your authority? You become so radiant and dizzy when I give you a little sunshine? You don't even know who you are?"
Why did the original owner give these people face? Even if she gave them face, they would still bully her.
"You, you, you..." The maid didn't know what to say for a moment, and could only raise her hand and point at her tremblingly.
The next second, there was a "click" sound, and the maid's fingers were broken directly. Without waiting for the other party to scream, she stuffed the handkerchief in her hand into the maid's mouth.
"She's just a little maid, yet she dares to disrespect the princess. Come! Drag this maid away, give her thirty lashes, and then throw her out of the palace."
Four guards walked in at the door. When they saw that the person in front of them was the maidservant in charge of the prince, they were stunned and at a loss as to what to do.
"Don't you even listen to the princess's words? After all, our princess is the savior of the emperor and the queen, and you treat her like this?" Taozi stood aside with her hands on her hips and asked.
"It's okay if you don't take action. If you alarm His Majesty, then whatever you do in the future won't be decided by the princess anymore!"
When several people heard the emperor's words, they immediately held the maid down and were about to drag her away when they heard Song Jiao shout, "Wait, this princess suddenly changed her mind. The execution will be carried out here. Thirty strokes of the cane, not a single stroke less."
The guards immediately pulled the man up, and another person pulled a stool and tied the man up.
Song Jiao sat elegantly in front of the stone table. "Taozi, ask the kitchen to send some food. This princess needs to supervise these people here."
Taozi nodded and immediately turned and went to the small kitchen.
Walled Courtyard
Yuchi Shang hadn't seen his personal maid Dongyue yet, so he asked anxiously, "Lin Dong, where's Dongyue? Why haven't we seen her so early in the morning?"
Lin Dong was Yuchi Shang's secret guard. He jumped down from the beam in a flash and said with a bow, "Lin Dong doesn't know. Miss Dong Yue came to see the prince this morning, but she seemed to have heard about what happened yesterday, so she left in a hurry."
"She won't go to find Qin Mingyue, right? You should go and check it out." A bad thought suddenly arose in Yuchi Shang's heart.
On weekdays, the maid Dongyue has always disliked Qin Mingyue. After knowing what happened yesterday, she must have gone to find that vicious woman.
Lin Dong responded and then jumped out of the window, but he was back in the blink of an eye. "Your Highness, Dongyue is now in the princess's yard. Her hands and feet are tied to a bench and she is being beaten."
"Help me up quickly!" Yuchi Shang knew that this must be the case, so he immediately asked someone to help him up, put on his clothes, and limped towards the yard at the side.
The next second, he appeared at the gate of Song Jiao's courtyard. After just a few steps, he saw Song Jiao sitting at the stone table, drinking tea and eating cakes. He glanced at Dong Yue, who was tied to the bench, and shouted, "Qin Mingyue, what are you doing again?"
"Ah? It's Your Highness? Why are you here?" Song Jiao raised her head and looked at him in surprise. "I'm just teaching the maids in this mansion a lesson. Maybe it's because I was too kind in the past, so everyone dares to act disrespectful in front of me."
"Qin Mingyue!" Yuchi Shang roared.
He wanted to get to Dong Yue quickly, but his body wouldn't allow it, so he could only limp over.
"I haven't even told you to stop yet, why did you stop? Do you think you want me to take action?" Seeing the guards in front of her stop, she immediately scolded them.
These people are really unreliable. I still have to do it myself at the critical moment.
Song Jiao stood up and walked forward, snatching the board from the guard's hand. She raised her hand and hit Dong Yue hard. She never bothered to control her strength, and soon she had completed the remaining thirteen boards.
Only then did she contentedly drop the board and walk towards Yuchi Shang, who was still approaching, and said with a soft smile, "Your Highness, don't you need to rest? You shouldn't come to see me. I would be flattered."
"Qin Mingyue, don't disgust me here. Dongyue is my person. Even if she did something wrong, I should be the one to punish her!" Yuchi Shang stared at Song Jiao with disgust. He really wanted to slap her in the face.
Song Jiao, however, looked nonchalant. In a voice only the two of them could hear, she said, "Your Highness dared to attack me. I was just punishing a little maid, and yet Your Highness is so angry. Could it be that you have some hidden relationship with this maid?"
"If that's the case, then I can't keep her! After all, as a maid, seducing the prince is a capital crime! Your Highness, don't you agree?"
Yuchi Shang looked at her with gritted teeth, "Don't look at me with those disgusting eyes of yours. I'm not as filthy as you think."
Song Jiao blinked her eyes and smiled playfully, "Since there is nothing, why should the prince be angry? If you do this, if the news gets out, I don't know what others will think of you, the prince. And what will they think of this maid? If the prince wants to keep her, then keep her."
"Anyway, whatever happens has nothing to do with me."
