He looked at his daughter-in-law sitting high on the dragon throne. Her dragon majesty was even greater than that of the late emperor, pressing him so hard that he could hardly breathe.
"Someone, come here! Bring Song Chengjiao into the palace for me. I want to see what he wants to do!"
Following this angry shout, the imperial guards took orders and left like the wind.
However, all this made Jiang Shiwei's heart panic instantly. She stared at Jin Linlin with wide eyes and a face full of astonishment, stammering:
"Second sister-in-law, this...we are all family, what are you going to do?"
Jin Linlin didn't even bother to look at Jiang Shiwei. She had completely lost her patience with this idiot. Jiang Shiwei kept causing trouble again and again. He was simply a complete troublemaker.
"Humph!" Jin Linlin snorted coldly and rebuked mercilessly:
"Since you are my sister, I didn't want to argue with you. But you are getting too aggressive, telling everyone you meet that you want to restore the country. You are so ignorant of the world. If I don't teach you a lesson, you will never know who is the true ruler of this world!"
However, in just a short moment, Song Chengjiao was escorted up by the guards like a chicken.
"Your Majesty, the person has been brought here." The guards reported in unison.
Jin Linlin didn't even glance at Song Chengjiao's miserable appearance. Her face was as gloomy as water as she coldly ordered:
"Come here, give Song Chengjiao and Jiang Shiwei a hundred lashes. Beat them to death. If they die, it counts as death. If they are not dead, throw them out of Cangwu City!"
It was only then that Song Chengjiao and Jiang Shiwei realized the seriousness of the situation. They knelt on the ground in fear, kowtowed and begged bitterly:
"Your Majesty, please spare me! Your Majesty, please spare me!"
Jiang Wangmo was very anxious when he saw this. He immediately fell to his knees, tears streaming down his face, and begged inconsolably: "
Your Majesty, they know they are wrong, please show mercy and forgive them this time!"
Jin Linlin scolded coldly:
"Father-in-law, I was thinking of family ties and didn't want to be too harsh on them, but they didn't know how to restrain themselves and tried to disrupt the government. They didn't deserve this punishment."
The boards fell again and again, and the screams of Jiang Shiwei and Song Chengjiao echoed throughout the palace. Jiang Wangmo pleaded desperately beside them, his forehead bleeding. By the time the hundred strokes were over, the two men were already ripped and dying.
Jin Linlin waved her hand:
"Drag him out and throw him out of Cangwu City. If you dare to step into it again, you will be killed without mercy."
Jiang Wangmo slumped on the ground, distraught.
"Father-in-law, you should reflect on this and stop letting others take advantage of you and ruining this hard-earned peace."
Jiang Wangmo didn't dare to say anything more and left the palace in disgrace. Jin Linlin looked in the direction they left and sighed inwardly: in this palace, family ties are ultimately too fragile in the face of power.
