The Fourth Prince's wife felt a chill in her heart, but she remained calm on the surface, pretending to be comforted, and snorted softly, "That's great."

The fourth prince secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "Then, I will take you back to your room to rest."

The Fourth Prince's wife waved her hand gently: "No need, I will go back to my room. By the way, I leave that Gu Qinlian to you. All these troubles are caused by her. You must teach her a lesson for me."

She is still not sure how to deal with the relationship with the Fourth Prince, but she will never let Gu Qinlian, the disaster star, go!

Ever since this unlucky guy entered her life, she has been humiliated repeatedly.

She couldn't help but wonder if Gu Qinlian was a chess piece sent by one of the Fourth Prince's opponents to deliberately cause sabotage!

She is just a merchant girl. Since she is displeased, just get rid of her.

The Fourth Prince was already burning with anger, knowing that all these troubles were caused by Gu Qinlian, and replied with a grim smile: "Don't worry, I will definitely vent my anger for you!"

This incident had a profound impact on him. Although he could not do anything to the Fourth Prince's wife, he had countless ways to punish a merchant girl.

As a result, Gu Qinlian, who was imprisoned in the Fourth Prince's mansion, fell into despair.

Ever since she was captured by Nanny Cen, she has been imprisoned in a secluded courtyard. She knows nothing about the changes in the outside world, and she doesn't know whether the Fourth Prince's wife believes her words. She can only live in fear and trepidation every day.

When a group of guards rushed in through the gate like ferocious monsters, Gu Qinlian's heart tightened and she sensed that something was wrong.

"Come here, drag this lowly woman away immediately and punish her severely!"

Nanny Cen had a grim look on her face and issued stern orders to the guards.

Gu Qinlian was terrified. She dodged desperately and shouted loudly: "Don't come over! Where is the Fourth Prince's wife? I want to see her. You can't treat me like this!"

However, the guards were undeterred and quickly subdued her.

Nanny Cen walked forward angrily and slapped Gu Qinlian hard on the face several times.

"You shameless bitch, you dare to mention my prince's wife! She didn't take your life immediately, which is already the most kind thing she could do. All right, take her to the dungeon and give her a good 'treat'."

This last sentence was directed to the guards.

The guards immediately escorted Gu Qinlian out. Gu Qinlian was extremely terrified and struggled desperately, begging, "Please, Fourth Prince's Consort, please let me go..."

Nanny Cen sneered: "Don't let her disturb the masters."

The guard immediately took out a filthy sweat towel from his arms and stuffed it into Gu Qinlian's mouth.

Gu Qinlian's stomach was churning because of the stench of the sweat towel. She almost vomited out everything in her stomach several times, but her mouth was blocked tightly and she could only force herself to swallow the vomit.

As she was in agony and struggling to survive, she was dragged into the dungeon of the Fourth Prince's palace.

Although this dungeon was not spacious, it made everyone in the Fourth Prince's mansion shudder at the mere mention of it, because all prisoners who entered here, without exception, failed to walk out alive.

If it were just death, it would be fine, but the most horrifying thing is that the prisoners here have to wait in inhuman torture for the Fourth Prince to decide when they will die.

The longer you stay in the dungeon, the longer you will be tortured. In comparison, a direct beheading seems extremely lucky.

There are all kinds of torture instruments on display in the dungeon, and just a glance at them is enough to make one's legs go weak.

Gu Qinlian, who was originally timid and fearful, collapsed to the ground powerlessly when she saw those torture instruments.

The guards dragged her to the rack like a dead dog, stripped her of her winter clothes, and tied her tightly to the rack.

Before she had any chance to catch her breath, a guard swung a whip and hit her hard.

In an instant, the skin and flesh were turned over and blood was dripping.

Gu Qinlian's body was bulging with veins from the pain, and her screams were muffled in her throat by the sweat towel, so she could only make vague whimpers.

Before she could recover from the severe pain, the second whip came down immediately.

Gu Qinlian fainted from the severe pain.

Nanny Cen, who was standing by, coldly scooped up a bucket of water mixed with special substances and poured it on Gu Qinlian.

As soon as the water touched her wound, it immediately caused severe pain, awakening Gu Qinlian from her coma. She twisted her body desperately, and she wanted to die immediately because of the pain.

Madam Cen observed with satisfaction for a while, then threw the water scoop on the ground and said to the guards, "From today on, treat her like this every day. Leave her alive and wait for the master's decision."

"As ordered!"

Nanny Cen turned around and went to report to the Fourth Prince's wife.

The Fourth Prince's wife applied medicine and sat on the soft couch with a gloomy face.

"Princess, that bitch has been locked up in the dungeon. Her life or death depends on your words."

The Fourth Prince's wife gritted her teeth and said angrily, "It would be too easy for her to die. I want to make her live a life worse than death!"

Nanny Cen immediately tried to comfort her, "Please calm down, Princess Consort. She is just an insignificant woman, and it is not worth your anger. You are pregnant now, so you should take good care of yourself. This is your and the Fourth Prince's first child, and there must be no mistakes."

A hint of viciousness flashed across the eyes of the Fourth Prince's wife: "Mammy, when you go home, tell my father and mother in detail about the grievances I suffered today. Some people should be shown how powerful we are."

She did not specify who "some people" referred to, but Aunt Cen already knew it in her heart.

She hesitated for a moment, then advised earnestly: "Miss, the Fourth Prince is the pillar of your life after all. Although he acted inappropriately and hurt you today, if the prince and princess knew about it, it would probably push the situation into an even more embarrassing situation. By then, your relationship with the Fourth Prince would be even more precarious. If a couple is alienated, the road ahead will be tortuous and difficult."

The Fourth Prince's wife gently stroked her cheek and said firmly, "We will discuss the future later, but at the moment, I really can't stand this depression!"

Moreover, the slap from the Fourth Prince had profoundly affected many of her future decisions. Therefore, she had to tell her parents about this.

She knows that she is not very smart, so she will not make any decisions on her own.

Nanny Cen took the order and left in a hurry.

……

Inside Prince Duan’s Mansion.

Gu Qinlan was lying comfortably on the couch, reading a book. Fu Yu hurriedly walked in and reported, "Madam, Miss Meiyun wants to see you."

Gu Qinlan put down the book and said calmly: "Let her in."

Soon, Meiyun was brought into the house by Fu Yu.

She did not bow, but sat directly on the stool opposite the couch.

Gu Qinlan did not take her behavior seriously, but said directly: "Miss Mei, I am very grateful for what you did yesterday."

When the Fourth Prince and his wife came uninvited, she knew what the couple was up to. However, inviting a doctor from outside was too conspicuous, so she hurriedly sent someone to summon Meiyun.

Originally she was worried that Meiyun would refuse, but unexpectedly, Meiyun not only agreed, but also cooperated with her tacitly.

No matter what Meiyun's motivation was for being willing to help, Gu Qinlan believed that gratitude should be expressed in a timely manner.
