In fact, this punishment was considered very light. Ye Lintian was still very partial to Shen Yurou.
There is no other reason than that the son Shen Yurou gave birth to could make all beasts surrender and his future would be bright.
But facing such a light punishment, Shen Yurou's body still trembled and her face turned pale.
Especially, she was kneeling here while Shen Qingluan stood aside.
Just like that day in Jingxin Garden, it was the same.
Why!
Why is Shen Qingluan always one step ahead of her!
Resentment, anger, embarrassment!
Shen Yurou's face was almost distorted. Fortunately, she kept her head down so no one noticed the expression on her face.
"I am punished by kneeling for a day and a night..." Shen Qingluan chuckled lightly, "Your Majesty does not take Tianfeng Dynasty seriously."
The emperor's face froze and he asked: "Then how do you think I should punish you?"
"You said just now that you would give me a hundred sticks, but my request is not high. Fifty sticks will be enough. This can be regarded as giving His Majesty an explanation to the world, unless you think that the world is not as important as Shen Yurou."
The good impression Ye Lintian had towards Shen Qingluan disappeared as soon as she said these words.
His chest was congested, but he knew that what Shen Qingluan said was true.
If Yu Rou is not punished this time, it will be really hard to explain to the world!
"Your Majesty!" Queen Zhao looked up and saw Ye Lintian's thoughtful expression, and felt panicked, "Yurou's body is weak and cannot withstand such treatment."
"Shen Yurou can't withstand fifty sticks, but I can withstand a hundred sticks?" Shen Qingluan turned to look at Queen Zhao and asked expressionlessly.
Queen Zhao was filled with anger. Who does Shen Qingluan think she is, that she can compare with Yurou?
Yurou is a dignified princess, and she has given birth to an imperial grandson, but she is nothing more than a pariah.
However, Empress Zhao was not stupid enough. She could see the Empress Dowager's attitude towards Shen Qingluan, and she only dared to curse these words in her heart, and she definitely did not dare to say them in front of others.
"Here comes someone!" Ye Lintian's voice deepened.
Shen Yurou raised her eyes in disbelief: "Father..."
Did the father really obey Shen Qingluan and want to take action against her?
Why!
Ye Lintian really hated Shen Yurou this time. He clenched his fists and said sternly: "Drag the Crown Princess down... fifty boards."
Shen Yurou's face lost all color in an instant. She bit her trembling lips, stood up staggeringly, and laughed silently.
This laughter is bitter and desolate.
"Father, it is indeed my fault this time, which caused such a disaster, and I should be punished... If this is the case, my father can tell the world that I am willing to beat my son to death.
"
Shen Yurou already understood that Ye Lintian would punish her severely this time no matter what she said. It was useless to cry and beg for mercy. It would only make him bored. It was better to just... bear it all.
As expected, after hearing Shen Yurou's words, Ye Lintian let go of his prejudices a lot.
No matter what, Yurou was deceived this time. It is really rare for her to be so sensible now.
"Don't worry, I will let people use the best medicine to treat you later, and I won't let people really beat you to death."
After Ye Lintian said this, he continued to order: "Come here, let's do it."
Two guards had already stepped forward and drove Shen Yurou towards the open space next to her.
Someone brought a bench and asked her to lie on it.
Someone also brought a cloth and stuffed it into her mouth to prevent her from accidentally biting her tongue later.
Shen Yurou tensed her body tightly. Compared with the pain she would endure later, the humiliation was more unbearable to her!
Shen Qingluan!
Everything you have done to me today, I will repay you in full tomorrow, and I will make you die a miserable death!
A hard board fell on Shen Yurou's buttocks. The pain caused her to bite the cloth hard, tears instantly flowed out, and her face turned pale.
Ye Lintian really hit her, not pretending. After all, it was easy to tell at a glance whether he really hit her or not.
Queen Zhao turned her head away in disapproval.
When she learned that the jade bracelet Shen Yurou gave her was Lan Ruoying's relic, she resented her in her heart, but Shen Yurou was her daughter-in-law after all, how could she not protect it?
Now that I see what she has endured, I am even more heartbroken, and I feel even more resentful towards Shen Qingluan.
She winked at the nanny next to her, and the nanny understood the look the queen gave her and left in a hurry.
Soon, she came back again.
"Your Majesty," Mammy bowed down, "I want to go and have a conversation with the Crown Princess, but I'm afraid she won't be able to bear it anymore and will faint."
After hearing this, Ye Lintian nodded.
He was indeed worried about Shen Yurou, but he allowed Nanny to go.
Grandma walked to Shen Yurou and didn't know what was said in her ear, and the people here didn't hear it very clearly.
But you can tell from the mouth shape that it just tells her to hold on and never give up.
No one saw that the nanny quickly stuffed something under Shen Yurou's body. Her movements were so fast that no one could notice...
After all this was done, Grandma stood there again and said something to Shen Yurou.
At this moment, blood continued to seep out from under Shen Yurou's body. The blood was so dazzling that Ye Lintian's pupils suddenly tightened.
"Ah!" the queen screamed: "Yu Rou's lower body is bleeding. This... this seems to be a miscarriage."
miscarriage...
These two words were like a heavy stick, hitting everyone's heart.
Ye Lintian looked panicked and shouted hurriedly: "Stop, stop immediately!"
The two guards had beaten less than twenty times before they stopped under Ye Lintian's scolding.
Ye Lintian hurriedly walked to Shen Yurou's side, his face was tense and angry.
What Shen Yurou was carrying in her belly was his royal descendant! But now it was ruined because of this misunderstanding!
"Mother Lin, haven't you studied medical skills? Give Yurou a diagnosis." Queen Zhao winked again and said.
Nanny Lin walked a few steps towards Shen Yurou, squatted down, and gently held her pulse.
That face turned pale.
"Your Majesty, the Crown Princess really...had a miscarriage..."
Queen Zhao seemed to be stimulated, she staggered a few times, and stared blankly at Shen Yurou, who was covered in blood.
She turned her head stiffly and looked at Shen Qingluan with a pair of angry eyes. Suddenly, she rushed towards Shen Qingluan.
"You accompanied my imperial grandson, it was you who murdered my imperial grandson!"
Seeing that the queen looked like a madman, the Queen Mother sternly said: "Stop her!"
Suddenly, several palace maids stepped forward and stopped the queen.
Ye Lintian's eyes also turned red: "Mother, this is your great-grandson! If it weren't for Shen Qingluan, I wouldn't have treated Yurou like this, and this grandson wouldn't have died!"
