My Fair Princess: The Queen's Rebirth

"Twenty lashes of the cane." Nanny Zhang muttered, "Twenty lashes of the cane..."

The words are not finished yet.

He was dragged out by two eunuchs.

Aunt Zhang is old and can't stand the beating.

Ten strokes of the cane would kill her.

Not to mention twenty lashes.

I'm afraid she will die before she gets to the 20th stroke of the cane.

Xia Yingying watched in horror as Nanny Zhang was dragged out. She was now completely powerless and her eyes were black.

"Xia promised, please."

Aunt Rong looked at Xia Yingying respectfully and bent down as if to invite her in.

"I won't go. I won't go to the cold palace." Xia Yingying shook her head after hearing Rong Mama's voice. "The cold palace is dark and gloomy. I won't go."

"Xia Ying, whether you go or not is not up to me, nor is it up to you." Rong Mama continued, "You have done such a heinous thing. The emperor has shown you the greatest mercy by not punishing you on the spot. I advise you to follow me to the cold palace."

Xia Yingying still wanted to make a final struggle.

But before he could speak.

Madam Rong had already waved to the two guards at the door, and the two guards quickly came forward and pulled Xia Yingying up.

"Let me go. I am the emperor's concubine. How can you treat me like this?"

Xia Yingying was held tightly by two guards, unable to move at all.

One of the guards couldn't help but laugh and said, "Don't you know your status yet? A concubine banished to the cold palace is even worse than a servant."

"You...let me go."

Xia Yingying shouted angrily.

"You'd better save your breath." Madam Rong, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped and turned to look at Xia Yingying. "You'd better be smart now and stay in the cold palace honestly. If the emperor ever remembers you because of your kindness, he might release you from the cold palace... But if you continue to act like a spoiled brat like you are now, then you'll have to stay in the cold palace forever."

soon.

Xia Yingying was taken to the cold palace.

The two guards threw Xia Yingying in without saying a word.

Xia Yingying sat down on the ground, looking at the crazy women around her, shaking her head in fear.

"This……"

The guard had no patience to listen to her at this moment. After throwing her into the cold palace, he turned around and closed the door.

"Madame Rong, if you have no other instructions, we will go back." The two guards said respectfully.

Aunt Rong took out two silver ingots from her sleeve and handed them to them.

"Thank you two for your hard work tonight." Aunt Rong continued, "This is the reward from the Empress for your hard work."

"Thank you, Queen, for the reward."

In Shufangzhai.

Xiaoyanzi and Ziwei learned that Zhihua had a miscarriage.

I've always wanted to go and take a look.

But he was blocked by Erkang and Ertai.

This time, the two brothers agreed that it would be better for them not to go there for the time being.

"Xiaoyanzi, Ziwei, this time I'm not judging others by my own standards." Ertai looked at them seriously and analyzed the situation carefully. "Think about it, Zhihua's miscarriage was all because of an argument with Yongqi. As for the reason for the argument, it must have been something that happened earlier in the Yanxi Palace."

Erkang echoed, "That's right. Xiaoyanzi is involved in this matter. If you go to see Zhihua now, who knows what she might do. Even if she doesn't do anything, I think it's best not to provoke her. She values the baby in her belly very much, and she must be very shocked now."

Xiaoyanzi felt that what Erkang and Ertai said made sense.

What's more, she had instructed Aunt Gui to do that kind of thing to frame herself, and now she still feels a little angry when she thinks about it.

Oh, it’s better not to go see her.

This will avoid any unpleasantness later.

Moreover, although she couldn't be said to be particularly good to Zhihua before, at least she had never had any bad intentions towards her.

However, I didn't expect Zhihua to... have such a little trick.

Besides, now that I think about it, I don’t know what she will do to me next time.

"Forget it, forget it. I'm not going."

Xiaoyanzi suddenly became a little impatient. She waved her hands and sat back in her seat cursing.

Ertai saw that Xiaoyanzi looked unhappy and thought that she was unhappy because she was not allowed to go, so he hurried over to comfort her.

"Xiaoyanzi, we don't mean any harm. We didn't let you and Ziwei go because we were worried that Zhihua would point the finger at you again," Ertai continued to explain. "And you know Ziwei is pregnant now. It would be bad if she really argued with Zhihua."

After hearing what Ertai said, Xiaoyanzi immediately said, "Ertai, I'm not upset because you didn't let us go see Zhihua. In fact, what you said makes sense. I think Zhihua is not as innocent and kind as we thought."

Erkang, Ertai and Ziwei looked at each other in confusion.

"Alright, alright, if that's the case, let's not get involved in this matter anymore." Ziwei paused and said, "I wonder how Liu Qing and Liu Hong's restaurant preparations are going? Why don't we go take a look tomorrow?"

Xiaoyanzi nodded immediately after hearing Ziwei's words.

Then Xiaoyanzi said, "Let's take Qing'er with us when we leave the palace tomorrow. My brother hasn't had time to come to the palace recently, so they don't have much chance to see each other."

"Hey, good idea."

Ertai clapped his hands in agreement with Xiaoyanzi.

Just at this time.

Seya ran in from outside.

Seeing Erkang Ertai, Xiaoyanzi, and Ziwei chatting happily, he quickly walked over and asked, "What are you guys talking about so happily?"

"Saya, you're back." Xiaoyanzi saw Saiya coming back and quickly stepped forward to hold her arm, "Where did you and Chen Xiang go to play today?"

When Seya heard what Xiaoyanzi said, her face suddenly drooped.

"Xiaoyanzi, please don't mention it. Shen Xiang and I didn't go anywhere today. We were helping out in Liu Qing and Liu Hong's restaurant." Seya looked at Xiaoyanzi disappointedly.

"Saya, don't be unhappy. You and Chen Xiang can see each other often, but my brother and Qing'er are even more pitiful than the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl. We are planning to leave the palace tomorrow to find Liu Qing, Liu Hong and the others, and take Qing'er out of the palace with us."

Xiaoyanzi said word by word.

Seya shook her head helplessly at this moment and sighed, "Well, we really all have our own troubles."

"By the way, how are Liu Qing and Liu Hong's restaurant preparations going?" Xiaoyanzi continued to ask.

"Most of it is ready now, and now all that's left is to paint it."

Seya replied.
