"But I think you are really out of your mind. There are so many rumors outside saying that I can't have children and that the Crown Prince is an idiot. If his majesty, the old empress or His Former Majesty really cared about this matter, how could they hide it? How can they be so indifferent about it?
You don't understand the situation at all, and you have to hand yourself over to others as a spear and let them use it. Don't you think you are stupid?"
Yun Shang said with a smile. Then Lady Lian had been flogged ten times.
She cried out in pain, sweating profusely.
Yun Shang had no interest in watching anymore. She turned around and said to Qian Zhuo, "keep an eye on them. Don't forget to slap her twenty times. After the punishment, send her back and call an imperial physician. Don't let her die. "
Qian Zhuo responded. Yun Shang looked at Lady Lian and smiled, "Do you think that in the imperial household, without the Emperor's love, the most frightening thing is to see yourself as a flower wither little by little?
No." Yun Shang shook her head and smiled gently, "There are countless ways to make life worse than death in the palace. Soon, you will understand what real despair is.
From today on, all the servants in the palace will soon know that you have offended me and have been punished by me in the Imperial Garden. Then, in order to please me, countless people will slowly begin to neglect you and embarrass you with their instinct of flattering others. At that time, you won't even have a hot meal, a suitable dress, and even the servants around you will bully you... "
Yun Shang smiled cruelly, "You can enjoy it by and by."
Then Yun Shang turned around, flicked the invisible dust off her body, and left.
A while later after she returned to the Jinxiu Palace, Qian Zhuo came back.
"Everything is Done?" Yun Shang asked.
Qian Zhuo nodded, "Yes."
Yun Shang nodded, and smiled again, "I didn't expect that Lady Lian would have the guts to come to me after the fire in the Weiyang Palace that day."
"Your Majesty is too kind-hearted. We should get rid of her directly in case of endless trouble," Qian Zhuo replied.
Yun Shang looked up at Qian Zhuo with a smile, "You are better than me now. Why didn't you just kill her? What you said is very domineering. It seems that it's not a person to be killed, but just a trivial thing. "
Then she lowered her eyes and explained as if to herself, "If she continues to act like this, she will be killed sooner or later, but not now. Today, I just punished her in the Imperial Garden. If she soon died in an accident, I'm afraid that others will suspect me and think that I have secretly killed her.
Although I don't care about my reputation, I don't want to get into trouble. Besides, Lady Lian is still useful. "
"What's the use?" Qian Zhuo was confused.
Yun Shang smiled and said, "I said so much in the Imperial Garden just now, but I was deliberately trying to lure her into believing that she was plotted in today's difficulties. Later you secretly arrange for the servants to make things difficult for her, and she will definitely be more resentful. What do you think she will do under that circumstance? "
Qian Zhuo tilted her head and thought for a while, "Maybe she will go to the person who incites her to make trouble and ask him for an explanation."
Yun Shang nodded, "So I won't punish her now. Arrange some people to guard around her palace later and keep an eye on her, lest she be killed to keep her mouth shut. If she dies, I would be the first suspect of others. If I really did kill her, it would be fine. But if I didn't do it, I don't want to take the blame. "
Qian Zhuo nodded, "Don't worry, your majesty. I will send someone to keep an eye on her. Everything will be arranged properly."
As soon as Qian Zhuo left, a greeting came from outside, "The Crown Prince is ..."
Thinking of this, Yun Shang gritted her teeth, bowed her head and stroked Chengye, "Mother will ask someone to cook more delicious food for you. It won't hurt after you eat it."
However, it was not that easy to fool Chengye. He said, "Mother, Father said I would go there every day, but I don't want to go."
Yun Shang looked up at Luo Qingyan, who raised his eyebrows and seemed to be saying to her, 'look, I knew it.'
Yun Shang had to grit her teeth again and tried to persuade Chengye, "Didn't you tell Mother that you admired Father the most? Do you know that Father can ride a horse and shoot arrows? He can shoot many birds with an a arrow. He can fly over the walls. Do you want to be as powerful as Father? "
"No, I don't," Chengye replied. Of course, he knew what Yun Shang meant. He answered without hesitation.
"……"
Seeing that Yun Shang was frustrated, Luo Qingyan burst into laughter.
However, Chengye continued, "It's very tiring."
Yun Shang held Chengye's hand and said, "Well, Father is good at Kung Fu, but Mother is not good at Kung Fu. There are always many people bullying Mother. Are you willing to practice Kung Fu well to protect Mother?"
"Will anyone bully Mother?" Chengye raised his head abruptly to look at Yun Shang.
Yun Shang nodded, "Yes, they will. Mother is not good at Kung Fu, so they will bully me."
"No! I'll learn kung fu well and protect my mother from now on!"
