Marrying a concubine and swallowing her dowry? The mistress turns around and marries a high-ranking

Chapter 334

She waved her hand: "Throw this slut into the well."

The maid picked up Miss Yun and threw her into a small well nearby.

Just as she was about to release her hand, the maid paused, as if she had realized something was wrong, but it was too late.

Miss Yun fell into the well, and a splash was heard from inside. At the same time, the maid turned around suddenly, and her face changed drastically.

Princess Pingkang also turned around, equally shocked.

Not far away, Shen Lingjun, accompanied by several socialites and noblewomen, had just emerged from behind the artificial hill. They had clearly witnessed the scene before them and were standing there dumbfounded!

Shen Lingjun immediately realized what was happening and shouted to Hong Qing and Wang Jin behind him, "Hurry up and save them!"

Hong Qing and Wang Jin acted extremely quickly. Wang Jin immediately and deftly took off his outer garment, using it as a rope to pull Hong Qing down into the well. Together, the two of them quickly pulled Miss Yun out of the well.

At this moment, Miss Yun was still under the influence of acupressure. She hadn't struggled in the well, but she had choked on water. When Wang Jin released her acupressure, she immediately coughed violently and vomited a large puddle of water.

Shen Lingjun was furious and looked at Princess Pingkang.

"Grand Princess, you are a guest of the Yongning Marquis's residence, yet you dared to drown my family members in broad daylight in my own home. Isn't that a bit too outrageous!"

The ladies behind her also looked shocked and horrified.

This... coming to someone's house as a guest and drowning their family members in their garden well is truly outrageous and excessive!

Wasn't Princess Pingkang always very kind and gentle? How could she do such a thing!

The Princess Pingkang they had just seen had a ferocious face and venomous eyes, as if she were a completely different person. She was extremely terrifying, almost like a demon.

Princess Pingkang was also stunned.

This sudden turn of events caught her completely off guard, leaving her unable to process what was happening.

She was in the most secluded corner of the Yongning Marquis's back garden. She never expected that so many people would witness her killing someone right there!

Weren't they all attending birthday parties up ahead? Why did they come here?

Princess Pingkang's mind raced, desperately trying to come up with a reason to justify her actions:

"She...she seduced my consort! I cannot tolerate this! This lewd and shameless woman should be dragged to the pond and drowned, or thrown into a pig cage! I will drown her, just in accordance with tradition!"

Shen Lingjun's voice was cold and angry: "How did Miss Yun seduce Prince Consort Song? I just heard the Grand Princess say that she was giving Prince Consort Song flirtatious glances. So she only looked at Prince Consort Song a few times? If that's what seduction is, then all the female guests who came today saw Prince Consort Song. Shouldn't they all be dragged to the pond and drowned in a pig cage?"

The other noblewomen also heard Princess Pingkang's last few words.

If this Miss Yun had done anything even more shameless, Princess Pingkang would certainly have said more than just "sending flirtatious glances."

Just because you glanced at someone a few times, you're going to throw them into the well and drown them?

Crucially, regardless of whether she seduced him or not, Princess Pingkang had no right to use private punishment to kill him.

You can deal with a servant in your own household who seduces his master, that's fine; but someone else's relative or young lady, who isn't a servant, you just kill her like that?
