Chapter 539: Selling Out in Front of the Emperor?
ndmother once more: the emissary from Guiyue is different from a county princess. They wouldn't go to Northern Qi to demand laws for an emissary, but they would very well flip their faces at any momen...The old lady was lying on the ground with her buttocks in the air, it was as ugly as it could be.
Shi Liyuan was so bothered that he frowned deeply. 。Yun Chen was just about to question him when Lian Shi returned. 。
Before he could even greet the Emperor, he saw a large backside swaying before him. Startled, he kicked out, sending the old woman flying a zhang away, nearly landing at Shi Li's feet.
Shi Li Yuan was furious, he flung out a spell with his hand. Bang! The old woman rolled over and back the way she came. 。"Yo! Madam Ye! How is it you We thought a demon was possessing our behind!" The old madam's heart, it wanted to crumble. 。Her face is really too embarrassing. 。...
She was beaten pretty badly, lying on the ground whining and no one dared to help her.
Lien Shi gave Shi Liyuan a bow, then stood with Yunchen in a secluded spot. He whispered to Yunchen, "What's the situation"Yunchen replied in a low voice, "The Emperor wants to have Old Madam Ye depart from this world." 。“Hearing this, Lian was delighted. ‘That’s great! No need for the Emperor to do it himself. We can handle this.’” 。"Actions speak louder than words. He rolled up his sleeves and, brandishing a duster, rushed to the old madam." 。 “No! Don’t kill me! Don’t kill me!” The old lady was so frightened that she covered her head and scurried, directly to the side of Ye Chu Lian. 。In a moment of crisis, she surprisingly remembered that Ye Chulian was the most soft-hearted and easily manipulated granddaughter. 。 Unfortunately, the current Ye Chulian is no longer the same as she used to be. After going through so many things, she hates this old woman to her bones. Don't even talk about helping the old woman, she could even follow Lian Shi together to kill this old woman. 。Thus, Old Madam Ye did not receive protection but instead, Ye Chu Lian kicked her out with her foot and sent her to Lian Shi. 。He swept a handful of dust and flung it right onto her face. *Plap! Plap!* Her face immediately swelled up. 。Yun Chen hurriedly stopped him: “Lord Lian, I haven’t finished speaking yet, why are you so anxious Please come back quickly.” 。" He glanced at Lian Shi, "Is something the matter Oh well, never mind, I won't kill you for now." 。Then the two stood by the edge again. After a while, Yun Chen said: “Just now, Your Majesty was questioning why his old man came to visit, and Lady Ye did not come out to greet him.” 。Only after asking did I realize that Old Madam Ye was actually asleep. It's strange she would be sleeping in the middle of the day. 。" Seeing the old madam crying and trembling again, he didn't bother to speak. Butler Zhou just reminded her: "Old Madam, you have to answer when someone asks you! The more you don't answer, the angrier the Emperor will be" 。Before the majesty of the Emperor, you have no right to remain silent. 。“
The old madam was startled and immediately realized that Zhou Cheng was right. 。"So I quickly replied to Yunchen, 'Because I listened to the opera all night, from dusk till dawn, I was really exhausted and couldn't hold on any longer. That's why I took a nap during the day.'" 。"Watch a play" Lian Shi even laughed in disbelief, "To watch a play, you wouldn't see the Divine Emperor" "No, no, no, it wasn't intentional. It was just that I didn't know the Divine Emperor would visit..." 。To the esteemed adults, this play was arranged by my four granddaughters. They insisted I watch it, and if I didn't, they would beat me. 。"
Right after she finished speaking, a slap came out of nowhere and landed hard on her face. The old lady's mouth was bleeding, and half her face swelled up.
" 。She was close to tears, glancing around but seeing no one move. Who could have possibly done this to her Shi Liyuan sat at the head, his face a mask of displeasure. "I've said it before, if you mention A-Yan again, address her as Empress Dowager," 。Are you deaf, or are you intentionally ignoring what I say It seems you really don't take me seriously!
The old lady was so angry she wished she were dead. When did the Emperor say he wanted to call Night Wenyan Empress I didn't hear anything!
Yunchen reminded from the side: "Your Majesty, that was said at the gate of the princess mansion, Old Madam Ye indeed didn't hear it" 。Shi Liyuan pondered for a while, “Oh,” he said, and then there was nothing more. 。The old madam silently wept, her life was so bitter! If she had known there would be such a day, she would have rather gone to the temple with her second son! Suffering in the temple was better than facing the Emperor! The Emperor was too frightening! The frightening Emperor spoke again: "Our young miss Yan is beautiful~ kindhearted, and never does anything without reason. Since she allowed you to listen to the opera at night, there must be a reason behind it" 。“Tell me, what is the reason”
The old lady took two deep breaths. Although she didn't want to say it, she had no choice but to speak.
So, gritting her teeth, she said: “Because I sent her mother, Mu shi, to a temple outside the city.” 。But this old woman is not doing this for herself. This old woman is punishing her because she angered the Emperor, so this old woman has to take a stand. 。Taking her to the temple was just to have her confess her sins before Buddha. There was nothing else to it. 。"Your Majesty the Emperor, every word I say is the truth! I'm doing this all to help you vent your anger, Your Majesty..." Slap! Two more slaps landed on her face. 。This time she saw clearly, it was Lian Shi's duster. 。Why did Lian Shi hit her again when she was supposed to be connected “Presumptuous!” Lian Shi widened her eyes, “Are you talking about old age every other sentence Who are you saying that to It’s fine that you call Madam Yun ‘old woman’ since he is indeed young…” 。You're putting on airs in front of us, and we're too lazy to argue with you. After all, you are the Night Saintess. 。But you dare to act your age in front of the Emperor You are courting death!” 啪~啪~啪~啪~!Four consecutive slaps, the whisk danced with a whooshing wind, striking the old madam's face one after another. 。“A little brat a few hundred years younger dared to act disrespectful in front of the Emperor, what do you think you are You really think that being called 'Night Elder Madam' makes you the mistress of this general's mansion Do you think that Ye Zhenwei can tolerate you and everyone else will too”Even when fighting, Lian Shi showed no mercy. He beat Night Elder Madam mercilessly until she had the thought of suicide. 。Forget about the second son, good days, and being in charge. 。It's best to die, to end it all, so no one will humiliate her in front of her grandchildren again. 。But the thought was just a fleeting moment. Someone as precious to life as she was, how could she possibly be willing to die 。So she resisted the scolding and beating, and after it was over, she said: "I was wrong, I know I was wrong." 。"Even though he was annoyed by her cheek, he had to admit that she was tough. He had hit her and scolded her, but now he couldn't just kill her." 。This old woman's death was the work of Ye Wenyan, he can't steal his business from Ye Wenyan. 。And so he stood up again, and then he heard Shi Liyuan ask, “Why is Ah Yan's mother angering the deity Why must you punish her What does this have to do with you” The old madam’s scalp prickled again. “I, I am her mother-in-law...” 。” Mother-in-law 。"Mmm!" Shi Liyuan nodded. "It won't be long." 。Even if she remains the mother-in-law, she cannot interfere in my household affairs. 。To meddle is to overstep, to be ignorant, to intentionally get close to Me, and I most dislike being gotten close to. 。" I've been so scared, Your Majesty. I won't do it again, please forgive me this time, I swear I won't! " 。"No, there's nothing like that. " 。Her second uncle was only strict, he never bullied her. 。"
“Slap her!”
“Yes, sir!” Shi Lifen replied with a single command. Lian Shi immediately stepped forward. This time he didn't use his whisk; instead, he grabbed the old woman’s collar and slapped her repeatedly—pa~pa~pa~pa—until he reached fifty slaps before stopping." 。As for the old lady, her face was so swollen that you could hardly see her mouth anymore. 。"To dare speak nonsense in front of the Emperor, Old Madam Ye, aren't you courting death You've already bullied her to this extent, and now you say she hasn't been bullied What else would be considered bullying Do you have to kill her before you're satisfied" Shi Liyuan corrected him: "She has already died once, on the second day of the first lunar month." 。"At this point, he snorted coldly. “A-Yan is a junior at home, so she can't do anything to you because if word got out that she was disrespectful to her grandmother, the outside world would criticize her. So let this deity do what she wants to do instead.” 。I am four hundred and fifty-one years old. To me, you are many generations younger. 。He gestured suddenly with his hand toward the Mingtang outside. 。
Suddenly, the sky changed color. The clear April day instantly turned overcast with swirling clouds, and the season of blooming flowers was suddenly met with snowfall.
The snowflakes were thick and fast, piling up outside Xuming Hall to a height of over two feet in the blink of an eye. 。Lian Shi stepped forward, picked up the old lady and walked to the door. With a flick of his hand, he threw her directly into the snowdrift. 。"Go freeze! You'll feel some of the suffering Empress Dowager endured." 。Shi Lifeng was not satisfied with this—“Is that all the suffering there is” Lian Shi understood, and grabbed a Night Mansion servant, ordering: “Go, get a knife from the kitchen.” 。"
All the servants in Ye Mansion were almost scared out of their wits. They had never seen such a big spectacle! Even when Miss Four acted up at home, it wasn't this frightening." 。The servants who were commanded ~ didn't even dare to breathe, they bolted out the door and soon came back with a knife. 。That was a knife used for chopping wood in the kitchen, much longer than a dagger. Even Shi didn't care about that, he grabbed it and ran towards the old madam. 。Ye Qingmei was startled and quickly reminded, "Uncle Lian, please don't kill the person. It's still useful to keep him alive for questioning!"Lian Shi said, "Don't worry, with the Emperor Zun here, he won't die." 。“ Though one may not die, living with this kind of torment is worse than death. 。A blade as long as half an arm plunged viciously into the old woman's heart, piercing her body completely. 。The old lady couldn't even utter a sound before she instantly passed away. 。He died once but came back to life, before he even reached the gates of hell, someone pulled him back. 。Life goes on, but the pain remains. 。A sword piercing through the whole body would be fatal for a human. 。If you just can't die, then that's true torment. 。The old madam was now living in misery. She lay in the snow, her whole body shivering from the cold, and the knife in her heart seemed to be pressed a little deeper with each movement she made as she fell. 。Such pain caused her to instantly recall the night of the first day of December, when Wen Yan returned home in his bridal attire. The hole in his crimson wedding robe was still fresh in her memory. 。Back then, Ye Wen during that snowy day, being stabbed with such a sharp pain, wouldn't it feel like death That's how painful it is to be stabbed right through the heart!ng, as long as we register our family name, no one would dare to oppose us or question us, because after all, there's no one in the world who is foolish enough to pretend to be a member of the Ji fami...
