The concubine is a man, and the illegitimate son of a divine physician has a spatial ability.

The two women hung their heads, their shoulders trembling slightly, suppressed sobs escaping their throats, tears streaming down their faces like a burst dam. Overwhelmed by grief, they were unable to utter a single word, simply standing there quietly, leaning on each other, as if the whole world had shrunk to just the two of them.

Time passed by, and after about a quarter of an hour, a light footstep came from afar, and a figure walked in quickly.

The visitor was Feng Sanxiang. As soon as he entered, he bowed respectfully and said, "Your Majesty, Your Highness, everything is ready. Please come to the court."

Upon hearing this, the Empress quickly reached out and tightly grasped Princess An Ding's slightly cold hands, gazing at her with gentle yet firm eyes, and softly instructed, "Child, do not be afraid."

"When we get to the court, just tell me all the grievances and frustrations you've suffered. With your father and mother here, they will surely uphold justice for you." As she spoke, the Empress gently patted Princess An Ding's hand, offering her encouragement and support.

Yin Zijin, with her bound feet, walked up to Princess An Ding. Her gaze was fixed on Princess An Ding's beautiful yet slightly sorrowful eyes, and then she nodded firmly.

Then, she leaned forward slightly and said softly but with unwavering determination, "Your Highness, please remember what Zijing said. No matter what happens, always think of yourself first!"

Look at all the suffering and torment you've endured over the years, but what about them? They're so close and inseparable, enjoying their loving and affectionate life together.

Is this fair? No, it's not! Therefore, please learn to protect yourself and don't give anyone another chance to hurt you.

Sheng Muling nodded and walked onto the courtroom with her bound feet. When she finally stood in the courtroom, she glanced around and found that the courtroom and the surrounding area were crowded with onlookers. Some of these people had curious expressions, while others had gloating expressions, which made Sheng Muling, who was already uneasy, feel even more timid and nervous.

However, when she saw the adulterous couple who had betrayed her kneeling in the courtroom, their heads bowed, avoiding anyone's gaze, looking utterly pathetic, Sheng Muling's emotions surged like a tidal wave. Her eyes instantly turned red, and tears welled up in them.

Especially when her gaze fell upon the woman's prominent, soon-to-be-born belly, a sharp pain pierced her heart. Recalling her own child who had died before birth, Sheng Muling's anger burned like a raging inferno, growing ever more intense. The sorrow and resentment that had been hidden deep within her surged forth, causing her body to tremble uncontrollably.

Sheng Muling, with her graceful figure and light steps, quickly walked up to the two men. She slightly raised her chin, her eyes sharp and authoritative, and her lips parted slightly, her voice clear yet carrying an undeniable air of authority: "Raise your heads! I'm telling you to raise your heads and look at me!"

The moment the words were spoken, the entire scene fell into complete silence, as if even the air itself had frozen. The two men trembled, hesitated for a moment, and then slowly raised their heads, their gazes filled with trepidation as they looked at the incomparably noble woman, Sheng Muling, before them.

Sheng Muling's lips curled into a slight, disdainful sneer. Her once delicate face now exuded a chilling aura, sending shivers down one's spine. Then, she raised her jade-like hand, clad in sharp armor, and drew a swift arc in the air.

"Slap! Slap! Slap!" Three crisp sounds suddenly rang out, echoing in the air like thunder. Sheng Muling's movements were as fast as lightning; in the blink of an eye, she had slapped the prince consort three times. Each slap contained the anger and dissatisfaction in her heart, and the force was so great that the prince consort's cheeks instantly swelled up, revealing clear five-finger marks.
