Her Highness Doesn’t Want to Work Hard Anymore

Chapter 100 A Painless Punishment

Hua Manman fell asleep after drinking the medicine.

Li Ji left the bedroom in a wheelchair.

Ruyun gently closed the door.

Li Ji told her: "Take good care of Hua Ruren, and come to me if you need anything."

"Here."

Then Li Ji took people to Concubine Li's residence.

Concubine Li has just returned from the Queen's place.

Because of Hua Ruren's injury, Concubine Li was severely taught by the queen.

Concubine Li was deeply annoyed.

It was obviously Hua Ruren who was injured, so what does it have to do with her? Why should blame on her head?

Concubine Li didn't dare to get angry in front of the empress, and when she returned to her residence, Concubine Li smashed a set of teacups severely.

The exquisite teacup was smashed to pieces.

The maids serving in the room knelt down one after another, too frightened to take a breath.

Just then, a little eunuch ran in in a panic.

"Reporting to your empress, King Zhao is here!"

As soon as Concubine Li heard the word Zhaowang, her expression changed immediately.

Even though she lives deep in the harem, she has heard about King Zhao's deeds, and knows that his character is treacherous and vicious, and he is an evil spirit that cannot be provoked.

Now Zhao Wang hastily came to the door, nine out of ten it was because of Hua Ruren's affairs.

Li Fei said hurriedly.

"Stop him, don't let him in!

Just say that Bengong is not feeling well and doesn't want to see guests, so let him come back another day. "

However, just as she finished speaking, King Zhao had already appeared at the door in a wheelchair.

Behind him were more than a dozen tall and mighty royal guards.

Li Ji didn't enter the door either, he parked the wheelchair outside the door, his gloomy gaze swept over the crowd, and finally stopped on Concubine Li.

Li Fei felt her scalp go numb, and her heartbeat involuntarily accelerated a little.

She pretended to be calm: "How could you come here without the permission of the palace? Even if you are King Zhao, you can't be so unruly."

Li Ji asked back coolly.

"Concubine Li caused the king's child to be seriously injured, what is the rule?"

Concubine Li tried her best to defend herself.

"Hua Ruren slipped and fell by herself, and it has nothing to do with Bengong. Don't push everything on Bengong's head. Bengong is not being taken advantage of!"

However, Li Ji clearly heard her inner voice at this time——

"I just wanted to give Hua Jieyu a push. Who let Hua Manman come out halfway? I can only blame her for meddling in her own business. Even if she gets hurt and suffers, it's her own fault!"

Li Ji didn't bother to tell this stupid woman apart, so he directly instructed the guards following behind him.

"Bring something."

Two personal guards stood up and threw a large handful of thorns in their arms to the ground.

Seeing this, Concubine Li had a very bad premonition in her heart.

she asked sternly.

"What are you doing?"

Li Ji raised his right hand and pointed at her vaguely: "Let her kneel down."

Before Concubine Li could react, she was held down by two royal guards, one on the left and one on the right.

They knelt down according to Concubine Li.

Li Fei tried to resist, but her little strength was no match for the guards at all.

She was forced to kneel on the thorns.

The thorns on the surface of the wattle pierced through the dress, pierced into the calves and knees, causing Li Fei to scream out in pain.

Seeing this, the court ladies and eunuchs present were all terrified.

They didn't dare to step forward to stop them, so they could only kneel on the ground and kowtow, begging King Zhao to let Concubine Li go.

Li Ji didn't even look at the maids and eunuchs.

He just looked at Concubine Li so coldly, his eyes were so cold and gloomy, it was chilling.

Concubine Li had never been tortured like this before, her face was covered with tears, and she screamed heart-piercingly.

Yuqing Palace is not small if you say it is, and it is not big if you say it is big.

What happened to Concubine Li soon reached the ears of the emperor and empress.

When they hurried to the scene, Concubine Li was already hoarse from crying. Her two calves were so painful that she almost lost consciousness. The skirt was covered with blood. The scene was shocking.

the emperor snapped.

"What are you doing?!"

Everyone at the scene hurriedly knelt down to salute, and the guards let go of Concubine Li, and Concubine Li fell to the ground.

She raised her hand with difficulty and shouted towards the emperor.

"Your Majesty, save me..."

The queen ordered someone to help Concubine Li up, and sent someone to invite the imperial physician.

Li Ji was still sitting in the wheelchair with a calm expression, without any panic.

"My minister pays homage to the emperor and empress."

The emperor frowned, staring at Li Ji with black eyes, and his deep voice revealed deep displeasure.

"Concubine Li is my concubine. Even if you are dissatisfied with her, you shouldn't torture her openly. How can you embarrass me by doing this?"

Li Ji had no intention of defending at all.

He calmly said: "It's my minister who was impulsive, this minister deserves to die, please punish me, Your Majesty."

When the emperor saw his appearance, most of the anger on his face dissipated, replaced by deep helplessness.

"Obviously there are better solutions to things, why do you have to choose the worst one?

Using torture on the concubine without authorization, if this news gets out, the officials will definitely not let you go.

What are you doing? "

Li Ji laughed at himself.

"The officials' memorials to impeach the humble ministers are almost piled up like a mountain, so what's the point if there is one more or one less?

Anyway, Weichen is now a useless person, how bad can the situation be?

It's nothing more than death. "

The emperor couldn't see his self-defeating look the most, said in a deep voice.

"Don't just say you're dead, you're still young, and you still have a long life ahead.

Even if you can't stand up in the future, you are still the King Zhao of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and no one dares to look down on you! "

Li Ji's lips moved, as if he wanted to say something.

But in the end nothing was said.

No matter what the emperor said next, Li Ji remained silent.

In the end, in order to give Concubine Li an explanation, and also to silence Youyou, he fined Li Ji one year's salary, and ordered Li Ji to go back and contemplate for a month behind closed doors.

Concubine Li was tortured half to death, and she might suffer from inconvenient leg and leg problems in the future, but King Zhao, who was the instigator, had to receive such a painless punishment.

This incident once again made everyone clearly realize how much the emperor favored King Zhao.

...

Hua Manman was sleeping soundly, but was woken up by Siyun.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Ruyun's anxious face, and couldn't help asking.

"Why do you have this expression? What happened?"

Si Yun said anxiously: "Just now I heard that His Royal Highness King Zhao led someone to beat up Concubine Li. This incident even alarmed the saint and the empress."

Hua Manman was stunned.

She knew that King Zhao always did what he wanted, but she didn't expect that he would even dare to beat the emperor's favorite concubine.

Hua Manman understood that King Zhao did this to stand out for her, and it would be a lie to say that she was not moved.

She propped her hands on the bed and sat up with difficulty.

"Help me change my clothes, I'm going to see Concubine Li."

Siyun hurriedly dissuaded: "Be careful of your wound, don't move, the imperial doctor said that you'd better lie on your stomach for the next two days, so as not to hurt the wound."

Hua Manman: "It's okay, I know it well."
