Di Manli had received the news as early as when Xie Ying entered the Prince Chu's Mansion.

She knew that with Xie Ying's violent temper, she would definitely come and deal with Feng Shuyao if she saw her mother making trouble in front of the palace.

Sure enough, when she arrived at Yiyuan, she heard a fight inside.

Feng Shuyao and her maid Zhinan were unilaterally beaten by Xie Ying's men. She watched from outside for a while before slowly walking in and saying,

"Princess, why are you fighting here?"

When Xie Ying saw her coming, she said angrily:

"There was a commotion outside the palace, and no one reported it to you? My brother ignored Pan Yulian and let her make trouble, and you, as a concubine, did not care about it, and let her smear the Chu Palace and tarnish my brother's reputation. What's wrong with you?"

Xie Ying became angrier and angrier as she spoke. She rushed over, pulled Feng Shuyao up and started beating her again.

Di Manli stepped forward to stop her:

"Your Highness, my dear princess, if you continue to fight, someone will die. The prince has his reasons for not caring about Pan Yulian. After all, Pan Yulian is the mother of sister Shu Yao, and she is the only mother in the capital. We should at least show some kindness to her."

Feng Shuyao and Zhinan were beaten to the ground. They hugged each other and cried bitterly. Di Manli looked at them with disgust.

A few days ago, the General's Mansion abolished Feng Shuyao's relationship as an adopted daughter, and from then on Feng Shuyao had no relationship with the Zhennan General's Mansion.

Feng Qingluan played this role. Now seeing Feng Shuyao being beaten like a pug and lying on the ground begging for mercy, Di Manli felt extremely happy. She was worthy of being Feng Qingluan.

She knew very well that being flattered was the most painful thing. Look at Feng Shuyao's miserable state. She was so glorious and favored by the prince in the past, but now she has fallen into disgrace.

This is the only way to feel good when you want to take revenge on someone.

After hearing her say that, Xie Ying still felt unsatisfied, so she stepped on Feng Shuyao's palm and pressed it hard.

Feng Shuyao was in so much pain that tears were streaming down her face and she screamed:

"Oh, it hurts, it hurts so much, Princess Zhaoyang, please let me go, please let me go."

"Concubine Di, please save our young lady. If you step on her again, her hand will break."

Zhinan was also asking for help nearby.

This time Di Manli did not stop her. She looked down at Feng Shuyao:

"Sister Shuyao, the princess is angry and I can't persuade her. I can only help my sister up to this point."

Feng Shuyao raised her tear-stained face and looked at her pleadingly:

"Concubine Di, please persuade the princess. I don't want to become a cripple."

Feng Shuyao's eyes were filled with despair and humiliation.

Xie Yan said that he would not let her die, but he did not say that he would not let her become disabled.

Xie Ying was angry today because her mother made a scene in front of Prince Chu's mansion. If she wasn't allowed to vent her anger, she was afraid that she would really beat her into a cripple.

If her hands were crippled, what would she use to serve His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the future?

Even if she gets back on her feet in the future, the prince will still despise her.

In order to survive intact, she must ask Di Manli for help.

Di Manli just wanted to see her in pain and beg for mercy. As long as she showed weakness and could endure the humiliation, this woman would definitely help her.

Di Manli hypocritically asked the Zhennan General's Mansion to adopt her as their adopted daughter and promoted her to the position of Princess of Chu. Wasn't it just to see her fall into disgrace and then humiliate her and make her beg her?

Di Manli felt extremely satisfied, with a sympathetic and embarrassed expression on her face:

"Hey, Sister Shu Yao, what are you talking about? After all, you and I have served the prince together. I will protect you no matter what.

Princess, Feng Shuyao is just a lowly maid. There is no need for her to condescend to dirty your feet. I think she has been punished. How about letting her go for my sake?"

Xie Ying twisted Feng Shuyao's hand hard, then she snorted and let go of Feng Shuyao.

"Okay, I'll let this slave go today for your sake. If it happens again, I'll break her legs!"

After saying that, he no longer cared about Feng Shuyao, and left Yiyuan with Di Manli and his people.

Zhinan burst into tears and helped Feng Shuyao up:

"Miss, how are you?"

Feng Shuyao lay on the ground, feeling pain all over her body.

Her face was swollen and congested from being beaten, and it was difficult for her to speak.

Zhinan was also slapped in the face, and his situation was even more serious than hers.

She stood up with Zhinan's help. There were horrible bruises on the back of her right hand from being stepped on. Her whole hand was weak and in excruciating pain.

Zhinan supported her and walked tremblingly towards the room.

I saw Xiaoyuan hiding in the distance.

Zhinan shouted to Xiaoyuan, "Xiaoyuan, come here quickly and help the young lady into the house."

Xiaoyuan glanced at the two of them, showing no intention of coming over, and left with the firewood.

"You, why are you like this? The prince asked you to serve our young lady, but you ignored him. Next time the prince comes, I will report you to him..."

She also wanted to blame Xiaoyuan.

Feng Shuyao stopped her and said, "Forget it, she won't listen."

Although this girl named Xiaoyuan didn't bully them during this period, she didn't treat them as her masters either. It was normal for them to ignore her and not be able to control her.

She's used to it.

Zhinan helped Feng Shuyao sit on the bed, and endured the pain to fetch some water to wash her face.

"Miss, you still have old injuries and new ones. I will ask Doctor Bai to come and see you."

She wiped the back of Feng Shuyao's hand while crying.

When will days like this end?

Feng Shuyao had originally planned to get pregnant to regain the emperor's favor. If she became pregnant, this would be the first child born in the Prince of Chu's Mansion and would be the emperor's grandson.

Either way it will be better than the current situation.

As long as she could meet Xie Yan, show some affection for him, admit her mistake and express her love, I believe Xie Yan would be moved because she has a child.

But it takes a month to detect pregnancy. In this short month, not even halfway through, she has suffered so much torture. Every day in Yiyuan seems like a year to her, making her feel so painful and unbearable.

Feng Shuyao said, "Go and invite him. I will also write a letter and ask him to help deliver it to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Zhinan pouted and said dissatisfiedly:

"Writing to His Highness again? Last time, when the master was in trouble, Miss asked me to take the letter to Rubao to ask the prince to protect the master, but the master was still exiled to be a slave for life. It can be seen that His Highness the Prince did not help at all.

"Miss, you are having a hard time in the Prince of Chu's mansion. The prince must have guessed it, but he still did nothing and didn't even send anyone to visit you secretly. Miss, is it really worth it for us to do so much for the prince?"

She thought to herself that if it wasn't for helping the prince, with the king of Chu's overwhelming favor for her young lady, there was nothing wrong with being a concubine in the king's palace. Apart from the difference in status, the treatment was comparable to that of a princess.

Now that things have ended up like this, working for the prince was the worst mistake her young lady had ever made, ruining her bright future.
