Dongfang Chen sneered, "What a tough-tongued slave. Come on! Pull this slave down and beat her hard until she gives in."
Qingqing's face turned pale in an instant, and he immediately fell to the ground.
"Yes." An Fuhai said something, and the two young eunuchs ran forward, pulled Qingqing, who was all limp, and walked out.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me, Your Majesty..." As he was approaching the threshold, Qingqing's lifeless face suddenly moved, as if he was suddenly awakened, and he looked at Dongfang Chen in horror. The faces of the two little eunuchs changed and they quickly
He covered Qingqing's mouth and dragged her out.
Soon, the sound of crackling boards and muffled groans came from outside. Because they were afraid of disturbing the nobles, Qingqing's mouth was covered and she was executed.
Dongfang Chen continued to drink tea with his head down, and the silence in the hall returned to the previous silence.
Yun Jingchu's eyes slowly slid over Yun Xiyao, who was pale and pursed her lips, and Concubine Yuwen, who had an unbearable look on her face. Then she lowered her head and looked as if she was frightened.
The sound of the board outside continued for a long time, and then, a young eunuch hurried in and whispered a few words in An Fuhai's ear. An Fuhai looked at Dongfang Chen and said with some anxiety: "Your Majesty, that girl fainted.
If the fighting continues, I'm afraid someone will die."
"When she wakes up, continue beating her until she doesn't confess." Dongfang Chen raised his head and looked at An Fuhai, his eyes were cold and full of intimidation that made people tremble.
"Yes, I understand." An Fuhai winked at the young eunuch and quickly ran out to convey the message.
Soon, the little eunuch ran in again, panting slightly and reported: "To report to the emperor, that girl has died."
Dongfang Chen kept drinking tea and said lightly: "Pull it out and bury it."
"Yes." The little eunuch hurried out and executed.
The atmosphere in the hall was heavier than before, Dongfang Chen was still drinking tea slowly. Everyone had pale faces, or stood motionless with their heads bowed, or knelt down.
After a long time, Dongfang Chen put the quilt on the table and made a soft "click". Almost everyone's nerves trembled with this "click"...
Dongfang Chen looked at Yun Xiyao, his eyes cold and tinged with a touch of mockery: "Queen, since I have grounded you, you should be more at ease and stop meddling in things outside of Fengxiang Palace."
Yun Xiyao's face turned pale, her eyes flashed when she heard this, and she said, "Yes, I know I was wrong. I will definitely not dare to do it again next time."
Dongfang Chen's face suddenly became colder and colder: "An Fuhai, please pass on my decree. From now on, no one in Fengxiang Palace can take a step outside Fengxiang Palace without my instructions, and no one else is allowed to enter Fengxiang Palace. Otherwise,
, Kill without mercy."
"Yes." An Fuhai responded respectfully.
Yun Xiyao's face suddenly turned pale and transparent, her body shook slightly, and there was great sadness in her eyes, but she still thanked her: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Yun Jingchu raised his head slightly and looked up at Yun Xiyao, with a sneer flashing in his eyes. Yun Xiyao must have expected that due to this incident, the period of her grounding would be far away, so she was so desperate.
However, this is just the beginning. There are others waiting for her soon. What Yun Xiyao did to her back then, she will return to Yun Xiyao one by one.
