As soon as the order was given, two big-bodied nuns came up and forced Chu Yunjiao to kneel on the ground.
"What are you doing?" Aunt Chen tried to stop her, "You are all so presumptuous and you still haven't let go of Jiao'er!"
No one paid any attention to her.
Then someone presented a dark cane with an arm as long as a thumb and an unknown pattern carved on the handle.
Mrs. Chu ordered: "Mother Hai, fight!"
"Yes." Aunt Hai took the cane and slapped it on Chu Yunjiao's back mercilessly.
"Ah!" Chu Yunjiao burst into tears from the pain, "My prince and I truly love each other. Mother...even if mother beats me to death, she can't break us up...ah!"
"Hit me hard!" Mrs. Chu became even more angry after hearing her words, "If you can't beat me to death, beat me to death!"
"Jiao'er!" Aunt Chen's face turned pale, and she subconsciously rushed to stop her, "Let go of Jiao'er! Otherwise, when I come back from the next court, I won't let you go!"
Chu Yunfei smiled coldly.
They haven't figured out their identities yet. Do the mother and daughter really think that with their father's favor, they can do whatever they want at home?
She would let them know how ridiculous their ideas were.
"His Royal Highness the King of War!" Aunt Chen suddenly turned her head and looked at Rong Cang pleadingly, "Please save Jiao'er! She has a deep love for the prince, and God can tell you from it, please save her!"
Rong Cang was about to speak when Chu Yunfei glanced at her: "Chu Yunjiao is the concubine of the Chu family and has nothing to do with Prince Zhan's palace for the time being. Even if the prince intends to take her as his concubine, he will have to wait until tomorrow to send a sedan to carry her. Let’s talk about it later.”
Rong Cang's expression paused and his tone was cold: "Mrs. Chu sets the rules, so naturally I will not interfere."
Aunt Chen turned pale and looked at him in disbelief: "Your Majesty?"
Everyone else is here, but they just watch Jiaoer being beaten without defending him?
Is he sincere to Jiao'er?
"When Chu Yunjiao passes the palace, I will have the right to intervene." Rong Cang's voice was cold and cold, without even looking at Chu Yunfei. "The matter of accepting her as a concubine will be left to the princess to make the decision."
After saying this, he turned and left.
"Ah!" Chu Yunjiao's scream sounded quickly and kept echoing in his ears, "Auntie, save me, auntie, save me, Your Majesty! Your Majesty..."
Mrs. Chu's eyes were stern: "Hit me hard."
Aunt Chen was forcefully pulled aside by the stout nanny. She couldn't break free even with all her strength. She could only watch her daughter being beaten: "Jiao'er!"
"Auntie, help me!" Chu Yunjiao turned pale in pain and struggled violently, "Your Majesty, please help me, Your Majesty...let me go, let me go!"
"Sister, it's better to be calm. The prince has already left and I can't save you." Chu Yunfei walked over and looked at her embarrassed posture with cold eyes. "The louder you shout, the more I will think that you are unruly. Official My young lady has lost her manners, and I am afraid she is not even qualified to become a prince or concubine."
After saying that, she leaned over Chu Yunjiao's ear and said, "Do you think a nanny from the palace will come over to teach you the rules and etiquette that an official's daughter should have?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the cane in Nanny Yang's hand fell hard on Chu Yunjiao's back.
Severe pain exploded on his delicate back. Chu Yunjiao raised his head and let out a half-scream of pain. Then he gritted his teeth and swallowed back the remaining half of the scream.
I was sweating coldly, my hair was messy, and I was in pain.
The purlin marks swelled under the clothes, and Chu Yunjiao was so painful that she could not speak. She couldn't bear it anymore, and stretched out her hand tremblingly, trying to grab Chu Yunfei's sleeves: "Sister...sister..."
Chu Yunfei took a step back and said in an indifferent tone: "Don't make any more noise. Just accept twenty with peace of mind, and I will let grandma let you go."
twenty? !
Chu Yunjiao's eyes darkened. She had already been beaten so much, and she wanted twenty more?
"The eldest lady is so cruel, aren't you afraid that the master will come back to settle the score with you?" Aunt Chen looked up at Chu Yunfei and gritted her teeth, "Don't think that after you get married and become Princess Zhan, the master can no longer discipline you. You are so cruel and ruthless. If word spreads, others will think that you, a princess, are narrow-minded and have no tolerance for others!"
"I'm not afraid of being known as being narrow-minded." Chu Yunfei smiled softly, "I just don't know whether it's the aunt who disciplines the concubine more seriously, or the concubine who has an affair before she leaves the court. If Aunt Chen wants to spread the word, it will be serious. You can make it more exciting by adding more fuel and jealousy, but I want to see who will be the unlucky person if it affects my father's career in the end."
Aunt Chen's eyes narrowed and she looked at her in disbelief.
Did Chu Yunfei come prepared today?
"The master is back!" Someone outside suddenly shouted, "The master is back!"
A bright light appeared in Aunt Chen's eyes, and she hurriedly struggled and shouted: "Help! Master, master, please help Jiao'er! She is about to be beaten to death..."
Mrs. Chu looked cold and didn't say a word.
Chu Yunfei turned his head and looked outside expressionlessly.
Chu Yuanzhong, who hurried back from the palace, saw the chaotic scene in front of him as soon as he walked into the hall. He frowned: "What are you doing? Do you want to rebel?"
"Master!" Aunt Chen cried desperately, rushing towards Chu Yuanzhong, "If the master doesn't come back, I'm afraid I and Jiao'er will lose their lives..."
Chu Yuanzhong stretched out his hand to support her and looked at Mrs. Chu angrily: "Ms. Ji, what are you doing?"
"What am I doing that the master can't see?" Mrs. Chu smiled coldly, "I'm setting rules to set good rules for your concubines and concubines."
"Nonsense." Chu Yuanzhong shouted coldly, "Stop it!"
Aunt Hai paused her hands slightly and raised her eyes to look at Mrs. Chu.
"Keep fighting." Mrs. Chu's attitude was tough, "Chu Yunjiao doesn't know how to behave and has insulted the family tradition. She must be taught a lesson today."
"Father! Father, save me!" Chu Yunjiao tried his best to break free from the restraint, crying until his voice became hoarse, "My daughter can't stand it anymore, can't stand it anymore... ah! Father..."
"Yun Fei." Chu Yuanzhong turned his head and stared at Chu Yun Fei fiercely, "As a legitimate daughter, if you are not in the palace to be your princess, why are you running home? Are you deliberately provoking your mother to suppress the concubine?"
"Father misunderstood." Chu Yunfei walked up to him and bowed to him as a junior, "Yun Jiao is the concubine of the Chu family and has not yet left the cabinet. She should pay great attention to her reputation and protect Chu family." The reputation of our family, but she has no sense of shame. She actually set foot in Prince Zhan's palace without my knowledge at all, and hugged my husband in the study... If she doesn't let her mother punish her severely today, , I’m afraid that the Chu family’s reputation will be ruined in the future, which will be a devastating blow to my father’s career.”
This speech is quite long, with a lot of words.
But Chu Yuanzhong didn't listen to a word. Only the last sentence, "It will be a devastating blow to the official career" made his expression suddenly change.
