Chapter 191 Yi Chongyuan
Chu Si was stunned and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, there is no age difference?"
Qi Yixiu glanced at him and said, "Ten years old or younger. Sell him out."
The fourth day of the New Year should be busy.
In fact, even if Wang Bao's family had some money, they were just an ordinary family, with at most seventy or eighty people.
Wang Bao, Yu Chan, and Chen Si, who was in charge of the flower and plant room, were taken to the open space behind Fengzao Palace and beaten to death.
The eunuchs and maids in the palace would go to watch the execution whenever they had nothing to do.
Three people were beaten to death, two of whom were from Fuyang Palace. Concubine Feng was really embarrassed this time.
When Wang Bao was brought here, he was speechless. He had been subjected to all kinds of torture. Now he only wants to die. It is not easy to save his parents.
However, it was not until he was about to be beaten to death that he heard Layue say, "Eunuch Wang, you don't know yet, do you? The emperor has shown mercy to your family. For those over ten years old, the men will be beheaded, and the women will be sent to the army. For those under ten years old, they will just be sold. This is the emperor's great favor!"
Wang Bao was slow to distinguish these things. He thought, is there a child under ten years old at home? His brother's two children? No, that's not right. Why is it like this?
He became excited and wanted to shout and speak, but he couldn't.
Yes, he couldn't speak anymore. When he was being dragged out of the Internal Criminal Department... he was given a mouthful of medicine...
At that time, he just thought that the people from the Internal Criminal Department were afraid that he would not survive the beating and die.
Now I realize that it wasn't the case. His entire mouth was numb and his tongue couldn't move at all... Someone must be forbidding him to speak!
Yes, at this point, he couldn't tell the truth even if he wanted to.
His eyes widened, but with all his limbs broken, he could do nothing.
He could only be beaten to death with hatred.
The first one to die was Yuchan. She was a woman and could not bear the punishment.
He was so scared and in so much pain that he didn't eat or drink for two days. He died after just a few blows.
Chen Si was also severely punished and is now dying, but he doesn't know as much as Wang Bao.
Soon, the three were beaten into a pool of flesh.
He was dragged away and thrown into a mass grave.
The bloodstains on the open space were washed clean by several eunuchs carrying large buckets of water, and then brushed over with large and small brushes.
It looked like it had just been cleaned, as clean as it was every morning.
No one could tell that three people had just been killed here.
Zi Rui and the others looked unhappy when they came back.
Originally, Shen Chuliu didn't want Zirui to go, but she insisted on going, and said that if she saw more, she would not be afraid of other things in the future.
I came back and cried out of fear.
Shen Chuliu laughed: "Just be a good maid, what do you need to watch when I'm here? You were scared to death when you saw it, do you know now?"
"Master, it's me who is useless." Zi Rui wiped her tears.
"It's useless. I just asked Yuanxiao to go to the Imperial Medical Bureau to get some herbs to calm your nerves. Go and make the medicine yourself, and then all of you can drink a bowl." Shen Chuliu touched her head: "You, don't push yourself. If something happens, will you be unfaithful?"
Zi Rui shook her head: "I don't know how to do that."
"That's okay, don't cry anymore." Shen Chuliu looked at her with amusement.
Zi Rui was so embarrassed that her master was pregnant and still came to coax her.
In July, news came that Marquis Jing'an sent the prince of Chaoguo and his entourage to the border. The other two people of the Shen family, the prince of Ming, and several officials of the court had already gone to Chaoguo.
Princess Ruyi's wedding date is set for July 18th, so there is not much time left.
July is the hottest time in the imperial city. Shen Chuliu is pregnant and this year is not as good as last year.
When the baby was five months old, her belly gradually became bigger.
She also felt hot and the imperial physician examined her and said it was due to the pregnancy.
But because I’m pregnant, I can’t eat many cold things, and it’s not a good idea to put a few icebergs in the house.
Even fanning should not be excessive.
Fortunately, the room was still cool, so it was comfortable as long as people didn't move.
But because of pregnancy, I feel uncomfortable all over and often cannot stay still.
Shen Chuliu was so anxious that she could not stand it any longer. Seeing the sun setting, she simply stood up and said, "Let's go for a walk in the Imperial Garden."
The nanny followed hurriedly, as the pregnancy was getting advanced and they could not take it lightly.
Zirui and Zizhu served, and Yuanxiao asked Yinhu to follow.
In the imperial garden, there are bursts of cicada chirping. Although the sound makes people feel hotter, the air is always better than in the house.
Shen Chuliu walked slowly, strolling around the colorful imperial garden. Although it was much hotter than in the house, she gradually calmed down, which was also magical.
Until as we were walking, someone came to greet us.
It’s Lu Baolin.
She was followed by a palace maid.
"Greetings to Empress Jing Xiuyuan." Lu Baolin bowed his head.
Shen Chuliu called out and looked over.
Lu Baolin was wearing a light purple skirt that was neither new nor old. She looked average and seemed a little angry.
"Where does Lu Baolin come from?" Shen Chuliu asked curiously.
"Your Majesty, in the pavilion in front, Empress Yi Chongyuan is there." Lu Baolin replied.
Shen Chuliu suddenly smiled: "Tsk, the situation today is really..."
Having said that, he walked past her and headed towards the pavilion in front.
Yi Chongyuan was sitting with her back to her, and she only stood up after her maid reminded her.
Shen Chuliu held Zi Rui's hand and went up to the pavilion.
"How's Jing Xiuyuan?" Yi Chongyuan said.
They are all nine concubines, and calling each other "Empress" is a form of bullying.
"No thanks, sit down. I came here because I heard from Lu Baolin that you were here." Shen Chuliu smiled.
Looking at this pavilion, I found that it was not the one where Yi Chongyuan wanted to frame me, but the pavilions in the palace were all similar.
"Lu Baolin, he is a cunning person." Yi Chongyuan snorted.
"How many people in the palace are not smart? Those who are not smart are hard to remember."
"Jing Xiuyuan is absolutely right." Yi Chongyuan smiled.
"I sit here and think about this time last year, this time the year before last, and this time several years before that. Thinking about it over and over again, I just feel like a fool." Yi Chongyuan lowered her head: "Very stupid."
"Now that I've fallen so hard, I finally understand."
"You are back to health now." Shen Chuliu supported her face with her hands and looked at the scenery outside the pavilion. She answered casually.
"It's just that the emperor felt sorry for me for giving birth to such a prince. Although the child is gone, my belly is precious." Yi Chongyuan laughed self-deprecatingly: "Since then, the emperor has never come to my place, and he will never come in the future. My role as Chongyuan has come to an end."
"Lu Baolin gave birth to the fifth prince, who is healthy and smart. The Lu family is the leader in civil servants." Shen Chuliu spoke softly.
Yi Chongyuan was stunned: "Yes, I shouldn't be ungrateful."
People like Lu Baolin are not allowed to advance...
"People are different. I am different from Lu Baolin and Jing Xiuyuan." Yi Chongyuan said slowly.
