Queen Yan snorted: "Just because you admit your mistake, you want me to forgive you for what you did. Why? Just because you are the daughter of the prime minister's house?"
Su Qing'er was stunned. She slowly let go of her hand and fell to the ground in despair.
Queen Yan glanced at her and said, "Today, I will take the place of your parents and teach you a lesson so that you will know what it means to be cautious in your words and deeds."
As she spoke, she gave an order: "Come here, give me a slap in the face."
When they saw the palace maids and nuns, they came forward one after another. Starting from Su Qing'er, no one could escape the rumors that had been spread today that had hurt Mu Yun'an.
Just listen to the sound of popping and popping, accompanied by the woman's miserable cry.
Yuan Jiahe shrank his neck, leaned into Mu Yun'an's ear and said, "This is the first time I have seen my mother get so angry. You are really capable."
Mu Yun'an was noncommittal. In today's matter, the Queen was not only trying to stand up for her, but also to establish her own authority.
She sat quietly and looked at the noble ladies who were slapped. From now on, I am afraid that these people will hate her to death, but what they hate more should be the culprit Su Qing'er.
By the time the palace maid finished slapping her mouth, the ladies were already in horrible condition, especially Su Qing'er because she was the instigator, so she was punished the most severely. Both cheeks were swollen from the beating, and blood flowed from the corners of her mouth.
Wu Xiuxiu was not much better, and the others also suffered from varying degrees of severity, but the experience had taught them a lesson, and they would never dare to gossip again in the future.
Queen Yan looked at them and said: "Today, I am just giving you a small punishment. If you dare to do it again, don't blame me for being rude."
She had a fierce momentum and said in a cold voice: "Inform the courtiers and let them come to collect the people."
When Mu Yun'an heard this, she really admired Queen Yan. If they were to let them go like this, the courtiers who were protecting their daughter would naturally leave it alone, but it was different to let the courtiers come to take her away.
The Queen wants them to give an explanation.
There was no need to continue the banquet at this point. Queen Yan stayed at the banquet and waited for the officials to come to receive the guests, while Yuan Jiahe and Mu Yunan left the banquet.
At this time, in the general's mansion.
What happened in the palace had naturally reached Xiao Chengyi's ears. After hearing the secret guard's report, he couldn't help but curl up the corners of his lips, and his heart was filled with relief.
Although his Yan Yan has forgotten him, her temper has not changed, and she will try her best to resist anything she doesn't want to do.
She did not accept Yuan Hao's marriage offer, but used rumors to avoid the marriage offer.
But Xiao Chengyi knew very well that Yuan Hao would not give up. Although he was confident that Yan Yan would not be able to marry Yan Jingxuan, he did not want such a marriage decree to exist.
Xiao Chengyi narrowed his eyes, then took out a letter from his arms and handed it to the secret guard: "Send it to the southern border."
"yes."
The secret guard accepted the letter and retreated.
Xiao Chengyi stood in front of the window, looking in the direction of the palace and murmured: "Yan Yan, it won't be long before we can be together. Then we will start over, and I will make you fall in love with me again!"
There is still one last step left in all his plans, and now is the time to take action.
...
In the palace.
Mu Yun'an was pulling Yuan Jiahe to look for something, and the two of them searched carefully along the road they had just walked.
Yuan Jiahe asked very puzzledly: "What kind of hairpin are you so precious? If you lose it, just replace it with another one. I've been looking for it for so long, maybe someone has picked it up."
There are so many people in the palace, it will be difficult to find him if he is picked up by someone.
Mu Yun'an complained: "It's all your fault. If you don't fight with me, can I lose my hairpin?"
