My Fair Princess: The Queen's Rebirth

"Meng Dan, I don't allow you to say such things. You deserve it..." Hanxiang felt heartbroken as she looked at the dying Meng Dan.

But she was powerless.

She didn't have the ability to resist them.

She could only keep begging the emperor to show mercy and let Meng Dan go.

Hanxiang raised her head and looked at the emperor. "Your Majesty, I beg you, please let him go. I swear to you that from now on I will never see him again. If I see him again, I will be struck by lightning and die miserably."

The emperor looked at Xiang Fei coldly, seeing her beautiful face covered with tears, and watching her constantly begging him for this man.

The emperor now slowly said, "Are you sure you won't see him again?"

Hanxiang nodded heavily and then raised her hand and swore, "I swear I will never see him again, and I guarantee that he will never do such a thing again from now on."

The words fell.

The emperor walked up to Xiang Fei and bent down.

His eyes fell on her.

Then he reached out and pinched Xiang Fei's face tightly.

He even wanted to kill the couple on the spot.

The two of them were so bold as to have a secret meeting in the palace.

Meng Dan fell to the ground and looked at the emperor with difficulty, saying, "Your Majesty, you can kill me or chop me up as you please... But please don't hurt Hanxiang... I am the instigator of all this, and it has nothing to do with others."

However, after the emperor heard what Meng Dan said.

Finally, he couldn't help but sneer.

The emperor's hand was still pinching Xiang Fei's face tightly, and he stretched out his other hand to pinch Meng Dan's face, then turned their faces away with force so that they looked at each other.

After a long time.

The emperor slammed their faces away.

He glared at them fiercely and gritted his teeth as he said, "Don't worry, you two. I already have an idea in mind. But now I just want to give the right to decide how to punish this ungrateful guy to..." The emperor's gaze slowly shifted to Xiang Fei and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. "I will hand this power over to you. Xiang Fei, you decide how to deal with him."

When the emperor finished his last sentence.

Everyone present was shocked.

The queen originally didn't want to get involved in this matter or meddle in it.

I thought that after the emperor had finished dealing with it, I would go back to Kunning Palace to sleep, but... the emperor actually did this.

The queen sighed silently in her heart.

It seems that there is definitely some trouble at the moment.

The queen silently prayed in her heart that this matter should be dealt with quickly, and at the same time she prayed for the children, hoping that this matter would never implicate them.

Hanxiang stretched out her hands and tightly grasped the emperor, desperately shaking her head and begging, "Your Majesty, I... I don't know either..."

After the emperor heard what Xiang Fei said.

His face suddenly turned gloomy again.

The Emperor looked at Xiang Fei and said, "Since you don't know, then let me tell you." He looked at the guards and said, "Drag this man away immediately and give him fifty lashes, then send him to Ningguta."

The leading guard clasped his fists and accepted the order.

Then he called for someone to drag Meng Dan away.

After hearing this, Hanxiang collapsed to the ground and even fainted.

Seeing this, Xiaoyanzi and Ziwei hurried forward to help Hanxiang, who had collapsed on the ground, up. Then Xiaoyanzi hugged Hanxiang and let her lean on her shoulder.

Ziwei kept patting Hanxiang's face, "Hanxiang, Hanxiang, wake up." However, no matter how Ziwei called her, she did not respond.

Xiaoyanzi looked up at the Emperor and said, "Emperor, please allow us to ask the imperial physician to come and treat Concubine Xiang."

The words fell.

The emperor did not hesitate too much.

He nodded and ordered someone to carry Xiang Fei in.

At this moment, the emperor finally felt a little relieved, but the anger in his heart would never disappear so quickly.

When the imperial physician arrived, the emperor immediately ordered him to treat Xiang Fei. Then he looked at the empress and said, "Empress, I will be leaving now. I leave Baoyue Tower to you. Xiang Fei and these..." The emperor pointed at Xiaoyanzi, Ziwei, Erkang, Ertai, and Yongqi as he spoke, "I will leave these children in your care. I hope you can give me a satisfactory answer."

"Yes, Your Majesty." The Queen bowed quickly and continued, "Your Majesty, I respectfully send you off."

The emperor then turned around and quickly left Baoyue Tower.

After the emperor's figure completely disappeared.

The people in Baoyue Tower finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiaoyanzi quickly stepped forward, took the Empress Dowager's arm, and asked, "Empress Dowager, how are you going to punish us?"

The Queen couldn't help laughing when she heard what Xiaoyanzi said, but then she looked at her seriously and said, "Xiaoyanzi, Xiaoyanzi, how do you want me to punish you?"

After the queen finished speaking, she walked into Baoyue Tower and sat down.

The moment she sat down.

She suddenly felt herself relax completely.

Her body was almost completely stiff just now.

After all, I'm getting older and my physical strength is gradually declining.

Xiaoyanzi, Ziwei, Erkang, Ertai and Yongqi followed in, and then the five of them lowered their heads and stood in front of the Empress Dowager.

The Queen looked at the five of them with a serious expression and said, "You guys are becoming more and more powerful. You dare to keep such a person by your side all the time? Even... even last time when the Empress Dowager was performing a ritual to pray for blessings, you dared to sneak him into the crowd and bring him into the palace."

After hearing this, Ertai quickly explained, "Please calm down, Empress Dowager. This was all the idea of the four of us. It has nothing to do with Yongqi. We kept it a secret from him at the beginning."

"Hmph," the Queen said helplessly, "Even if this matter has nothing to do with Yongqi, it's an indisputable fact that when you sent Ali Khoja back to Xinjiang, the three of you took the initiative to let him go and hid him in Huibin Building, right?"

The queen's words left them speechless for a moment.

Seeing that they were silent, the Queen continued, "You are all so brave. Do you think your heads have been hanging on your necks for too long?"

The five people still kept their heads down and said nothing.

Seeing that they still didn't say anything, the queen suddenly reached out and slapped the table hard, making a muffled sound.

Rong Mama was also shocked when she saw this.

Rong Mama quickly said, "Your Majesty, please calm down. No matter how angry you are, don't slam the table like that." As Rong Mama spoke, she looked at her Majesty's red palms with a distressed look, "Your Majesty, look at your palms, they are all red."

The Queen looked at Rong Mama and said, "Rong Mama, how can I not be angry? Look at what these children look like. One is the Emperor's biological son, one is his biological daughter, another is his adopted daughter, and the other two are his sons-in-law. Tell me what they look like."

The Queen had just finished speaking.

They all knelt on the ground.

Ziwei said, "Empress Dowager, we know we were wrong and we won't do it again."

"Next time?" the Queen asked. "Do you still want a next time? If there really is a next time, what earth-shattering things do you want to do? You can tell me how I should punish you."

The queen sighed deeply.

Xiaoyanzi and Ziwei bit their lips and dared not speak.

Erkang, Ertai and Yongqi lowered their heads and remained silent.

After a long time.

Yongqi then slowly said, "Empress Dowager, it is up to you to decide how to punish us. If you insist that we speak for ourselves, then there will be no punishment."

"Yes, yes." Xiaoyanzi nodded and agreed, "Yongqi is right. There is no such thing as punishing oneself in this world."

After hearing what Xiaoyanzi said, the Queen said, "Xiaoyanzi, don't think that just because the Emperor is not here, you can talk nonsense in front of me without restraint. Now that you have caused trouble, you will not escape punishment."

Ziwei nodded and responded, "The Empress Dowager is right. We should be punished."

The Queen looked at them and said, "Since that's the case, Xiaoyanzi will be punished by copying the Three Character Classic ten times, and she must finish it within five days. As for you four, just watch Xiaoyanzi copy until she finishes successfully. You are not allowed to help."

Xiaoyanzi was completely shocked after hearing this.

Even opened his mouth wide.

Although I have been practicing calligraphy diligently in recent years.

But in the end, I only learned the basics.

And now the Empress Dowager punishes students by making them copy the work ten times, and the task must be completed within five days.

This is harder than climbing to the sky for her.

Ziwei, Erkang, Ertai and Yongqi, all four of them had painful expressions on their faces.

They watched Xiaoyanzi copy the "Three Character Classic". It sounded simple, but it was really painful.

They felt that it would be more painful to just get beaten with ten boards.
