Chapter 77: Why is General Ji’s face swollen from being hit?
Before he could finish his sentence, he received a hard slap on the face!
General Ji couldn't help but get angry and turned around to fight back!
"Which bastard dares to hit me... me..."
He had just raised his arm when he turned around and was met with the eldest princess's cold and stern face, which made him stop talking immediately.
Although he was quite indignant, he did not dare to disrespect the eldest princess in front of all the ministers.
"Why, do you still want to attack me?!"
Murong Qing felt a little frightened by his ferocious eyes. After all, General Ji was a tall man, and his figure gave people a natural sense of oppression.
But the Marquis's wife said that she was the eldest princess, second only to the emperor and above everyone else, and could almost walk around the capital as she pleased. As long as they didn't slap the emperor or the empress dowager, she could slap anyone she wanted.
Even if you can't beat the opponent, you must crush him with momentum!
So when she was frightened, she immediately glared back fiercely!
“…”
“…”
Although General Ji was not completely convinced of the princess who was found from the "common people", he did not dare to contradict her in the palace. After a moment's stalemate, he had to put down his arms in disappointment.
"I dare not..."
“Bang!”
Murong Qing slapped him again!
General Ji looked up in astonishment: "Princess, you..."
Didn't he just stop? Why did he still hit him?!
Murong Qing raised his eyebrows, sneered, and scolded.
"Kneel down! Who allowed you to yell at the Marquis' wife? Why don't you kowtow and admit your mistake to her?"
The Marquis’ wife said so.
To be an empress, one must have the aura of a superior and use both kindness and power to control his subordinates.
She has just returned to her status as a princess, and it is time for her to establish her authority. General Ji has taken the initiative to come to her door and ask for a beating, so she naturally has to make an example of him to scare the monkeys.
How could you not slap him a few more times?
My hand just hurts a little.
Hearing her say this, General Ji, although not smart, was not stupid either. How could he not know that she was doing this to support Jiang and deliberately embarrass him in front of his colleagues.
His face darkened, and he was naturally unconvinced.
"Your Highness, your words are too biased! It was clearly the Marquis's wife who splashed wine in Zhu'er's face just now, which was rude first. I just wanted to argue with her, so why did it become a shouting match?!"
"You dare to contradict me? You rebuke me? Haha...it seems you don't take me seriously!"
Murong Qing did not argue with him, but directly charged him with the crime and gave the order.
"Xing'er, slap him! Stop when he's willing to kneel down and admit his mistake."
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Xing'er was overjoyed when she heard this. She immediately took the bamboo board that the Marquis's wife had asked her to prepare earlier, rolled up her sleeves and walked forward excitedly.
She had long wanted to experience the feeling of being a slave.
Such a good thing finally came to her!
General Ji's face froze, and he wanted to argue, but a bamboo board one foot long and five fingers wide fell down mercilessly and hit him hard on the cheek!
“Snap!” “Snap!” “Snap!”
The sound of hitting the flesh is crisp and loud!
General Ji: “…”
Abba Abba Abba.
What bad luck had he gotten into today? He didn't even have the chance to put a dent in that fierce woman Jiang's arrogance, but he ended up losing face in front of his colleagues.
The mission was not accomplished yet and the face was swollen!
Everyone on the side was stunned. They only knew that Jiang was a shrew, but they didn't expect that the eldest princess would be so difficult to deal with.
Originally, they relied on their military achievements, but when they saw the eldest princess slap General Ji twice as soon as she arrived, they felt that her behavior was humiliating the military general and were quite dissatisfied.
But at this moment, how could they not see that the eldest princess was trying to establish her authority? If they rushed forward and were the first to take action, they would definitely get their heads chopped off!
Forget it... They are here to celebrate and receive rewards, not to be beaten.
Shen Yu'an was also stunned.
No, it's only been a few months since we last met, how come the sister-in-law has become so fierce?! Is she still the same silent sister-in-law who would bow her head and obey his orders, and dare not go west when her brother tells her to go east?
Don’t lead Zhizhi astray!
However, when he turned his head, he saw his mother secretly giving his sister-in-law a thumbs-up, and his sister-in-law even blushed slightly in embarrassment.
Shen Yu'an: "..."Okay.
Jiang Wanning was naturally very pleased with this. It was not easy for her to raise Qingqing. Fortunately, Qingqing's training was not in vain and she finally succeeded!
Ji Lingzhu was splashed with wine in the face and was already a little annoyed. Seeing her father being humiliated in public by the eldest princess, she couldn't help but feel furious.
I couldn't help but step forward to protect my father and stop him.
"Your Highness! Today is a celebration banquet specially arranged by His Majesty. Aren't you afraid of chilling the hearts of the heroes and soldiers present here by reprimanding my father so brazenly?!"
Murong Qing turned around and looked at everyone, raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked.
"Are you chilled?"
Everyone waved their hands: "..."Don't get close, don't get close!
This is the grudge between the General's Mansion and the Marquis' Mansion, and they don't want to get involved!
Murong Qing restrained his expression and instructed Xing'er.
"Keep fighting! If General Ji tries to stop me again, I'll beat her too!"
"yes!"
Xing'er immediately agreed, waved away Ji Lingzhu's hand, and continued to beat people!
The Marquis's wife said that if she draws well today, she will be rewarded!
Ji Lingzhu stood aside with gritted teeth, watching her father being slapped in the face with blood. In the end, she did not dare to stop him. She just clenched her five fingers secretly and glared at Song Zhizhi hatefully.
She must be the one behind the scenes sowing discord and fanning the flames!
Otherwise, why would the Marquis's wife turn against me so suddenly? She obviously liked me very much before. Every time I went to the Marquis' Mansion to see my senior brother, she would praise me.
Even Old Madam Shen has said more than once that she and Senior Brother are a good match.
On the contrary, Song Zhizhi has never been liked by her mother-in-law, and Old Madam Shen also dislikes her as a hen that can't lay eggs. From time to time, she openly and secretly hints to her senior brother to take a concubine as soon as possible to expand the Shen family.
Even the eldest princess had a bad relationship with her sister-in-law, and the two were not very close.
At the moment, no one knows what kind of magic this bitch Song Zhizhi used on Jiang and the eldest princess to make them both side with her like this!
"Your Majesty has arrived—"
"The Imperial Concubine has arrived—"
Just as General Ji could no longer bear the punishment and staggered to his knees, the eunuch's voice came from the entrance of the garden.
Xing'er withdrew her hand at the right time and stepped back behind the eldest princess.
General Ji: “…”
Your Majesty, you are too late!
If he had come earlier, he wouldn't have to suffer this!
Seeing the emperor and Concubine Li approaching, everyone stood up and saluted.
After the emperor took his seat, he raised his hand and asked everyone to sit down.
Seeing General Ji kneeling on the ground, the emperor couldn't help but frown and asked, "What's going on? General Ji's face is swollen from being hit?!"
General Ji immediately knelt down and crawled before the emperor, beginning to cry and complain.
"Your Majesty, please make the decision for me. The Princess—"
Before he could finish his words, Murong Qing interrupted him immediately.
"Royal brother, General Ji yelled at the Marquis' wife, which was disrespectful first, and then he bumped into me several times, which was disrespectful later...I just gave him a light punishment and taught him a lesson.
My royal brother will not blame me, right?"
