Chapter 374 I Want to Go to Heaven, But I Have No Ladder



Di Baose slapped her thigh and burst into laughter!

Huan Yue sat on the throne, speechless.

Di Baose has been calling me cousin since I was a child. Miss Jin has never met him, has she?

After all, His Highness is going back to the Di family, while his maternal grandmother's family is far away.

The Crown Prince is so noble that he can't just go out and be called "cousin" by anyone.

Fang Jieyu was speechless. Look at Di Baose, she's already a concubine, and she's still like this. Miss Jin probably didn't expect her to lie, did she?

But the Crown Prince is a man, how could he just come at this time? Does Miss Jin think he's here to see her? How shameless can she be?

Xiong Baodie thought it was someone coming to see her, but after waiting for a while, no one showed up.

Jin Tiantian was filled with shame and indignation. She cried bitterly, feeling utterly wronged!

Di Baose saw her as a hypocrite, and how she went to the East Palace and flirted with the Crown Prince in front of the Crown Princess, Consorts, and Consorts.

Xue Biqian was somewhat disappointed not to see the Crown Prince. She had never been very optimistic about him to begin with.

Previously, everyone favored the King of Qi.

King Qi was practically perfect!

He was born of the Empress, and his maternal grandfather was the Duke of Rong. Little did he know that the entire Dong family would be wiped out.

Otherwise, many people wouldn't need to be in such a state of panic, nor would they need to keep an eye on the Crown Prince.

A young lady standing next to Xiong Baodie stepped forward.

This Miao Jun is a beauty who yields ten shi per mu. Judging from her slender and plump figure, she probably weighs less than one hundred jin.

Although Xiong Baodie was very wealthy, Miao Jun was just a girl from a modest family, and no matter how hard she tried to act, she didn't quite fit the image.

Fang Jieyu, Chaoyun, Ao Shi, and others all had sharp eyes, as if they could see right through Miao Jun.

Miao Jun was probably dressed in thick clothes, and her forehead was sweating as she tried her best to greet the Crown Princess with a dignified air.

Huan Yue saw that she was having a hard time, but she believed that she should strive for what she wanted herself.

Miao Jun remained confident and asked, "Does Your Majesty have sweet potatoes?"

Huan Yue said, "No."

Di Baose nodded, "No."

Miao Jun was stunned and looked at Xiong Baodie. Had she not figured it out yet?

Xiong Baodie was in a bad mood: "Why are you asking this?"

Miao Jun chimed in, "I know how to grow sweet potatoes."

Huan Yue remained silent.

Di Baose remained silent. She was still watching Jin Tiantian's performance. That bitch was going to keep pretending.

The Jin family is far inferior to the Di family. Doesn't Jin Tiantian have to put on an act in front of Di Baose? Di Baose is the one who's truly confident!

The court isn't absolute, but how could the Jin family not know about Jin Tiantian's behavior? Now that the Jin family has this idea, what can the court do?

Miao Jun looked at the Empress with great confusion.

A palace maid stood in front of her and lectured, "Haven't you learned any manners?"

Miao Jun quickly lowered her head; these rules were too annoying.

The palace maid sneered. It wasn't that the rules were annoying, but that she was being disrespectful.

Miao Jun explained, "I wanted to plant them, but I didn't have any seeds."

Huan Yue asked, "Is it like this: I want to go to heaven but I don't have a ladder?"

Di Baose laughed loudly! Aren't they all just trying to climb over the Empress to get ahead? They even dare to directly ask for a ladder.

Miao Jun thought Huan Yue was really something else; if it weren't for his luck, he wouldn't have survived three episodes: "Isn't it a waste to just leave it there?"

Di Baose slapped her: "What a waste of your family's property?"

Miao Jun is unbelievable! What right does she have to hit someone?

Di Baose slapped her again, complaining that her hand hurt: "What's wrong with you? How dare you ask about or interfere in the Empress's affairs?"

Miao Jun covered her face, as if she knew. Actually, she wasn't that concerned about sweet potatoes, but she had the opportunity.

Xiong Baodie was furious: "She's mine!"

Di Baose sat down and saw that Xiong Baodie was a dead person.

Xiong Baodie looked down on Di Baose, and even more so on Huan Yue, so she asked, "When will Your Highness arrive?"

Di Baose ordered, "Drag her away and give her thirty strokes of the cane. Even if she's shameless, she still has to be beaten."

The eunuch dragged Xiong Baodie away without any courtesy.

Xiong Baodie struggled frantically, but the eunuch didn't give her a chance.

The group that came with Xiong Baodie panicked and hurriedly knelt down in front of the Empress.

Miao Jun still insisted on reasoning: "How can the Crown Princess hit people so easily? Your Highness..."

A palace maid kicked her so hard she fell over, making her teach the Empress how to do things? The matter of Xiong Baodie spreading rumors hasn't been dealt with yet; that's execution!

This looks like a person, does it think spreading rumors is right? Therefore, it's clearly a ghost.

Madam Li pleaded for her son: "It's acceptable for him to join the army..."

Di Baose asked, "What right do you have to make demands here? You might as well all die."

Madam Li was so frightened that she cried.

She felt she had some familial affection for him. Her son just needed a little care.

Did Lü Wenren not have Lü Liang's help in the army? How could he have earned military merits without Lü Liang's support?

It's perfectly normal for military achievements to be a mix of genuine and fabricated, not to mention taking credit for others' achievements.

Madam Li doesn't even ask for military merits, she only asks that her son come back safe and sound, is that not enough?

Di Baose thought it would be best if she died; going to the battlefield and being a burden was worse than dying quickly.

Jin Tiantian pleaded for Xiong Baodie: "Sister Baodie didn't do anything."

Di Baose ordered, "Drag him away and give him sixty strokes of the cane."

You can pretend nothing happened, just teach her a lesson.

Jin Tiantian was terrified! Sixty strokes of the cane would kill her! How could she die?

Jin Tiantian is the Crown Prince's cousin and has a very good life. Let go, cousin, help me!

The eunuch didn't stand on ceremony.

If she is a truly good young lady, she should naturally speak with His Highness first.

If a truly good young lady saw that the Crown Prince's wife was in the Eastern Palace, would she still cause trouble?

Why wasn't the Crown Prince more proactive before he took a concubine? Even if they were relatives, they might side with families like the Dong family. The relationships were complicated.

Just like the Zheng family is related to the Di family, but they are not aligned with the Di family.

Miao Jun understood; she could die at any moment!

The Xiong family is known for killing people frequently. It's true! She can only climb higher by relying on herself.

Di Baose sneered: "Why don't you share the burden with Xiong Baodie?"

Miao Jun looked at her, thinking, "Is she a devil?"

How could such a delicate-looking woman be so vicious? Doesn't she fear retribution?

Di Baose chuckled: "Then you'll get thirty strokes of the cane too. It'll be a good chance to distinguish right from wrong."

Di Baose is quite good; she never hits people casually. After all, there are plenty of people she wants to hit.

Miao Jun was dumbfounded. How could it be her turn to be beaten?

Di Baose sneered. Was she the chosen one who wouldn't get beaten up? So what if she knew how to grow sweet potatoes?

It seems like only Xue Biqian is left now.

Madam Qiu trembled. The mutton fat jade was right there; she knew that even if she took out two more pieces, it wouldn't make a difference.

Xue Biqian was somewhat bewildered. Was this all there was to the Eastern Palace?

She wanted to reason with Qing'e, but she was afraid the village girl wouldn't understand.

Guo is so cold and aloof. Does she think everyone has the right to reason with her here? That's blatant fabrication and she's trying to spout nonsense.

Xue Biqian gritted her teeth and went all out, asking Qing'e, "Wasn't it you who forced the Dowager Empress to her death?"

Fang Jieyu was startled. Wow!

Huan Yue calmly said, "Send him to prison."

Yes! The eunuch immediately took action.

The maidservant panicked and, unable to stop the eunuch, knelt down and cried out to the lady, "Miss was just asking; going to jail will ruin everything!"

Di Baose said, "Send this loyal servant along with him."

The maid didn't want to go and retorted angrily, "Do you know whose family we are?"

The eunuchs dragged him away.

Going to jail might ruin your life, but spreading rumors about the Empress doesn't seem to care. This isn't about having the wrong values; it's just feigning drunkenness.

There's no need to wake him up; just let him get drunk to death.
