Chapter 24: Yiniang is Beaten
She was so arrogant that An Zhongtao slapped the table: "Shut up! What's the difference between you and a shrew like that? You still say that someone else set you up, look at you, who dares to set you up? It's a good thing you didn't set them up!"
"I also do not say, can not say that you are full of mouths, that I am a concubine, an outsider, you are all your own people ......" Lian Jinrong already regretted his slip of the tongue.
However, late, Dongfang Jin lightly spoke: "The Imperial Palace is already forbidden at such a late hour, if you are going to find Shu Guifei, it is still possible to get up early tomorrow! However, my father generally does not recommend meddling in other people's family affairs, as he often says, it is difficult for a fair official to determine family affairs!"
Zhongtao looked at Lian Jinrong angrily, "What if you go to find Shu Guifei? Her Highness doesn't have the time to pay attention to you ...... Besides, don't you understand the principle that family scandals should not be publicised?"
"You have wronged me, and you still won't give me a place to reason?" Lien Jinrong stood up with her eyebrows and raised her voice.
Zhongtao couldn't stand it any more, he had clearly given her a step, but she didn't take it, she kept shouting, she really thought he couldn't be her master?
"Someone, drag this disrespectful person who disregards etiquette and the law down to this General and beat her with twenty lashes! Just outside the door, I'll count them, see which one dares to show favouritism?" An Zhongtao's voice carried very far.
Lian Jinrong was so frightened by his anger that she lost her voice, for the first time in all the years she had been married, he had yelled at her like that and hit her?
Lian Jinrong's face instantly turned pale and she said in surprise, "General? Are you really going to hit me? Are you sure?"
An Zhongtao turned his head away, not looking at her at all.
Only now did Lian Jinrong's face show fear, she looked at the people in the room, none of those people had any intention of opening their mouths to plead for her, she simply gritted her teeth and grunted coldly, two grannies came up, a little scared: "Second Madam ...... you don't want to make things difficult for the minions, let's go! "
Lian Jinrong didn't say a word and headed out. The back was hateful.
The next thing we heard was the sound of the board outside. Lian Jinrong was a strong person, she didn't make a sound and was beaten with twenty strokes.
Lian Jinrong was brought back by two Pozis, her lips were bitten, although she had no strength, the stubbornness in her eyes still irritated An Zhongtao: "What? You still haven't realised your mistake? Someone, take her away and ground her for three months, no one will let her out without my order!"
Lian Jinrong was finally brought down, and the key she was carrying was also untied. An Zhongtao took that key and sighed, he turned to look at Lian Jingyu, obviously wanting to hand it to her, but at that moment a new change of food was brought up, so An Zhongtao obediently put the key into his pocket, and then greeted the Crown Prince with a meal.
An Qing Ran was relieved, today she didn't expect things to go so well. It was surprising that Lian Jinrong, who was so clever, did not use that pity trick and went strong instead. How could she not be beaten, especially when she was shouting and arguing in the presence of the Crown Prince, which had already made her father lose face? Not to mention the fact that she had even brought out Concubine Shu to pressure him. Although Father would feel intimidated, it would be more of a disgust, right?
She looked at her mother. Since the beginning, she had not said a word, her face had been a calm expression, An Qing Ran smiled and leaned towards her, "Mother, this dish is really delicious, Father, you try it ......"
Saying that, she put a chopstick of the dish in the General's bowl, The General was a little surprised, before, she was more afraid of him than loving him, thinking of this he spoke, "Ran'er, you also eat more!"
