Chapter 375: The Lady of the Marquisate vs. the Younger Prince 118
Ji Rongyue was hit on the head and felt dizzy, so she just pretended to be unconscious. If she could stay in the Zhao family and expose Kong Liang's true face, Minister Zhao would definitely thank her.
By then, Minister Zhao will definitely be able to help her see her father. As long as her father is willing to see her, she can ask her father to show mercy and let the second prince go.
She is still the concubine of the Prince's Mansion, and has done favors for the entire Prince's Mansion. Maybe she can even become the Prince's Consort.
Many thoughts went through Ji Rongyue's mind. She felt that she had escaped death, but she did not expect that Zhao Baozhen would dare to take her life.
She stepped back screaming, "What are you going to do? You can't kill me! I'm the Concubine, if you dare to touch me, it's insubordination, the Second Prince will not let you go!"
Zhao Baozhen approached Ji Rongyue step by step, her round face showing an unprecedented seriousness. Seeing Ji Rongyue panicking and frightened to the point of pissing and shitting, Zhao Baozhen finally couldn't help laughing out loud.
"You're so brave, yet you dare to come out and stir up trouble. I won't dirty my hands for a maggot like you."
"Come here, send her to the Second Prince's residence and make sure to hand her over to him. Also, remind him to keep an eye on his concubine and not let her wander around. Censor Kong is already the son-in-law of the Zhao family. Tell the concubine to stop making trouble and give up."
Ji Rongyue's eyes widened in horror, cold sweat pouring down her face, "No! I won't go back! I want to go to the Ji family, I want to see Prime Minister Ji... Woo..."
Two servants came forward, blocked Ji Rongyue's mouth, put him in a sack, and dragged him away.
Feicui gave her young lady a thumbs up and praised her, "Young lady, you are wise. The Second Prince is narrow-minded and will deal with the concubine on his own. We won't have to worry about it."
She was so relieved that her young lady had finally learned a little bit of scheming and didn't rashly kill Ji Rongyue.
Zhao Baozhen was too embarrassed to say that this was Sister Ji's idea. She accepted Feicui's compliment and said shamelessly, "I have always been smart, but you made me stupid. In the future, talk less, do more, and learn more from me!"
The master and servant were bickering when Kong Liang came hurriedly in the moonlight. When he saw the blood on the ground, his face turned pale. He walked forward, grabbed Zhao Baozhen's hand, and looked her up and down carefully.
"What happened? Ji Rongyue is such a vicious person. How dare you come to see him alone? You even lied to me and said you would give me a surprise, and then you left me alone. How could this be a surprise? It was clearly a shock!"
"Where is Ji Rongyue? Did she run away? Catch her and beat her up to vent your anger, then send her to the Second Prince's mansion. She will be confined in the Second Prince's mansion, and it will be a serious crime if she escapes privately!"
Zhao Baozhen leaned into Kong Liang's arms, hugged Kong Liang's waist, and said tenderly: "Aliang, I feel dizzy~"
Kong Liang became even more anxious, "Where is the injury? Let me take a look, Feicui, go get a doctor!"
Zhao Baozhen laughed muffledly, buried her head in Kong Liang's arms, and touched Kong Liang's body unscrupulously with her hands.
"Aliang, you are so enthusiastic today. I am so shy. I have been mesmerized by you."
Kong Liang finally realized that Zhao Baozhen was fine and was just teasing him. He felt ashamed and angry, but also a little secret joy. He pushed Zhao Baozhen away with his body stiff, without saying a word.
Zhao Baozhen was not flustered even though she had made the man angry. She slowly took out a pair of jade hairpins from her bosom. The hairpins had a warm luster and were of excellent quality. They were carved into the shape of two wild geese.
She stood on tiptoe and said with a smile: "I didn't lie to you. Look, this is a surprise for you! From now on, this will be our token of love!"
Kong Liang's heart was filled with tenderness and sweetness. His lips were tightly pursed, but a smile involuntarily revealed itself.
Zhao Baozhen pressed Kong Liang's shoulder and said coquettishly, "Bend down! I can't reach you!"
Kong Liang obediently bent down and let Zhao Baozhen put the hairpin on his head. He then put the hairpin on Zhao Baozhen's head.
Zhao Baozhen easily coaxed the man into submission. She took Kong Liang's hand very smoothly and skipped out.
"Today is the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the family should be reunited. But even if my aunt comes, she can't enjoy the moon outside. She can only recuperate at home. Let's go see her together. I have also prepared a gift for my aunt. She will definitely like it..."
Zhao Baozhen was chattering non-stop in the front. Kong Liang looked at their clasped hands, the smile on his face growing wider and wider.
He knew that he was dull, and he was lucky to meet such a lively and bright woman who cherished him and thought about him all the time. Being able to spend his life with Miss Zhao was enough for him in his life.
The Second Prince’s Mansion.
Ji Rongyue's running away was against the imperial order, but the emperor obviously would not order the killing of a small female member of the family. The officers blocked the dog hole and exercised stricter control over people entering and leaving. They also put handcuffs on Ji Rongyue to prevent her from escaping again.
The officer brought the man to the Second Prince and told him word for word what the Zhao family servant had said. Then he closed the door of the bedroom and ignored him.
With this vent, the Second Prince should be less noisy and they can save some trouble.
The Second Prince's eyes were bloodshot, he had waited for a whole day and night, but what he got was such news. He stepped on Ji Rongyue's chest, crushing her hard, and his curses could even be heard by the servants outside the bedroom.
"Bitch! How dare you betray me? I treated you well and promised you the position of concubine, but you flirted with other men like this. Now that I've been imprisoned, you've started thinking about other men?"
"You can't help it if I don't touch you, right? You said you wanted to help me, but you were actually meeting your lover in secret, hoping that Kong Liang would rescue you! You're dreaming! You are my woman, and even if you die, you will die in the prince's mansion!"
Ji Rongyue was lying on her back with blood foaming from her mouth. She tried hard to pry the Second Prince's feet apart, but unfortunately she couldn't move them at all. Instead, she got her hands covered in blood.
“No! I…I didn’t betray…betray His Highness. I went to the Ji…Ji family first, but…but…wow…”
Before Ji Rongyue could finish his words, he spat out a large mouthful of blood.
The second prince became even more furious. He kicked Ji Rongyue's lower body and cursed, "Bitch! A bitch who is ridden by thousands of people and cursed by thousands of people! You colluded with the Ji family to harm me, ruined my reputation, and imprisoned me!"
"Kong Liang has already joined forces with that villain Jing Yu. You are in the same group with them! I told you to tip off! I told you to betray me! You deserve to die!"
Ji Rongyue's arms gradually dropped down, his eyes widened, and the light of fear in his eyes gradually disappeared, leaving only a lifeless gray color.
The second prince kicked the man a few more times and kicked him to the bedroom door. He was so tired that he lay down on the bed and fell asleep.
It was not until the next day when the servant who delivered the food came in that he discovered that Ji Rongyue was dead.
The Second Prince was still not satisfied, so he stripped Ji Rongyue of her clothes and ordered his men to throw her into a mass grave, leaving her body to be eaten by wild dogs and not allowing anyone to collect her corpse!
