After another half an hour, the Empress Dowager looked at the kneeling Dongfang Ningxin as if she had discovered something.
"Get up, why is Princess Xue so stupid? She is kneeling down alone. The Ai family didn't ask you to get up. It's because the Ai family is too busy. Why are you so short-sighted?" The Empress Dowager's tone was full of contempt.
, the disgust on her face was not concealed at all, there were no outsiders at this time, everyone in the palace today were her confidants.
"Thank you, Empress Dowager." Empress? This kind of address was something Dongfang Ningxin never dared to think about. She had knelt for too long and her legs were a little numb. Dongfang Ningxin could only stand reluctantly.
"Weak, are you blaming the Ai family for neglecting you?" With her slender fingers and a somewhat mean face, there was no hint of kindness in the Queen Mother at this moment. She looked like a witch, looking at her fiercely.
Oriental peace of mind.
"Your Majesty, forgive me, Ning Xin dare not." The wind blew by, messing up Dongfang Ningxin's hair, and also blew the left side of her face in front of the Queen Mother.
Seeing the ruined left side of Dongfang Ningxin's face, the Queen Mother felt extremely happy and proud. Bitch, you also have today...
But he showed a frightened look.
"Ah, ghost, ghost... Dongfang Ning Xin actually used this to scare the Ai family. What is your intention? Someone is here... drag the Ai family down and beat them, beat them hard."
The Queen Mother spoke very quickly, and she seemed a bit frightened. As the Queen Mother's voice fell, the guards who were hiding there immediately came out and were about to take Dongfang Ningxin down.
Dongfang Ningxin secretly complained that the Queen Mother had gone too far. First she left her to bask in the sun for an hour, and then she knelt down for half an hour. Before she could say these three words, she was about to beat her.
.
She provoked whomever... She silently glanced at the proud and arrogant Queen Mother, and Dongfang Ningxin told herself that no matter how unlucky she was, she had no choice but to accept it.
But just when Dongfang Ningxin was about to accept her fate, the eunuch's loud announcement came to her ears.
"Prince Snow has arrived..."
Hearing the eunuch's voice, a flash of panic flashed in the Queen Mother's eyes. Is this son here for this woman? She looked at Dongfang Ningxin. She didn't think that this woman was worth Xue Tian'ao's heart at all. Xue Tian
The Queen Mother is not proud of him, but she is still quite afraid of him.
And the guard who originally dragged Dongfang Ningxin down to be tortured also stopped when he heard the announcement. This Prince Xue is from Princess Xue, right?
Everyone thought that Prince Xue came here for her, Dongfang Ningxin. But for some reason, Dongfang Ningxin had no expectations because she knew how cold-blooded that man was...
Xue Tianao walked into the Luanfeng Palace of the Queen Mother and saluted directly to the Queen Mother as if she did not see Dongfang Ningxin.
"My son, please see your mother." Yi just stood and did not kneel down. This is Xue Tianao, so arrogant that it is no wonder that the emperor is not at ease with him.
"Excuse me, why is Tian'ao free to visit the Ai family today?" Regarding Dongfang Ningxin, the Queen Mother automatically ignored it. She didn't mention this person, Xue Tianao, and the Queen Mother would never take the initiative to bring it up. Taking the initiative to bring it up would make her appear to be in the wrong, and she couldn't.
Make yourself passive.
At this moment, Xue Tianao finally couldn't ignore Dongfang Ningxin. He glanced at Dongfang Ningxin before saying to the Queen Mother.
"I heard that my queen has summoned my princess, and I came here to see if it is the princess who has made you angry, my queen." Xue Tianao, the guard next to Dongfang Ningxin, automatically ignored him, as if he hadn't seen her.
The Queen Mother glanced at Xue Tianao who showed no emotion. It seemed that he came here for Dongfang Ningxin but he didn't care at all. If not, then what was he doing here?
The Emperor couldn't figure out what Xue Tianao was thinking, but he planned to test it out, and unfortunately the person he chose as the test candidate was Dongfang Ningxin.
"Tian Ao, you princess is so ignorant of etiquette. It makes the Ai family very angry. The Ai family is preparing to train her to learn to behave." She wanted to see if this ugly girl could get into Xue Tian Ao's eyes.
"In that case, I will not disturb the queen mother while you train the princess." Xue Tianao didn't say much after hearing this, but stood aside, as if he was here to watch the fun.
Regarding such Xue Tian'ao, the Queen Mother didn't know what he was thinking, but she was not afraid. Wasn't she just beating an ugly girl? If Xue Tian'ao was really angry, she couldn't do anything to her. What should she say?
They are both dignified queen mothers. When the time comes, an unfilial hat will be slapped on her and she will be crushed to death.
"In this case, the Ai family will not be polite. Princess Xue made rude remarks and contradicted the Ai family, and her clothes were disheveled and rude. Come here, drag her down and hit twenty big boards." The Queen Mother said while observing Xue Tianao's expression.
When he was sure that he didn't have any emotions, he quietly breathed a sigh of relief for some reason.
The guards on the side looked at each other while watching this scene. Do you want to take this person down? Prince Xue came here in person to save the princess?
"What are you still doing? Why don't you hurry up? Did You Shui see that the prince is waiting for the princess?" The eunuch who brought Dongfang Ningxin to the Luanfeng Palace looked like a villain. It doesn't matter how powerful Prince Xue is, and how powerful he is.
Why, he still had to be obedient in front of the Empress Dowager. Even if the Empress Dowager beat his princess in front of him, he would have nothing to say.
Disappointed or sad? Dongfang Ningxin told herself that she shouldn't have these emotions, and she shouldn't hold out hope for Xue Tianao. His appearance today was due to convulsions.
And even if it happens, so what, will Xue Tianao care about Dongfang Ningxin's life and death? Does Xue Tianao care whether Dongfang Ningxin will be injured? No, Xue Tianao won't...
Being pressed down, Dongfang Ningxin did not resist at all, but walked quietly. Outside the Luanfeng Hall, Dongfang Ningxin was forced to hold down the bench on the bench. Humiliation, injury, and for a time, the negative emotions almost disappeared.
To drown Dongfang Ningxin, she wanted to escape, escape from this embarrassing and hurting place, but she was held down tightly, like an animal, while her husband sat indoors and watched coldly.
See her being humiliated, see her hurt...
Bang bang... I hit him with a stick one after another, hitting him on the back. I gritted my teeth in pain and shed tears...
It hurts, it hurts, Xue Tianao, you are such a bastard, it would be great if you could not come here. You sit in the room and watch me being beaten. Do you know how embarrassed and heartbroken it will be for me?
Xue Tianao, what is your heart made of? I, Dongfang Ningxin, believe that I have never owed you anything, why can you be so cruel...
One or two times, it hurt, it was heart-wrenching pain, it was so painful that it made me numb... Dongfang Ningxin bit her lip stubbornly, refusing to scream out even to the death.
sixteen.
Seventeen.
eighteen.
The sound of counting boards came to her ears. Dongfang Ningxin couldn't remember how many times it was. She only remembered that her back hurt so much. Every time a board hit her, it not only hit her back, but also hit her.
Her face, her pride, her dignity...
"Mother, you have taught me a lesson, and I have taken her away." The sound of the boards stopped, and Xue Tianao admired Dongfang Ningxin for being able to endure twenty boards without making a sound. She has the arrogance and backbone, but this point
Arrogance and backbone will only make people want to destroy them.
"Take it away..." The Queen Mother was startled by Xue Tian'ao's suddenly cold voice. Tian Ao obviously didn't care about Dongfang Ning Xin, right? Otherwise, how could she watch Dongfang Ning Xin being beaten?
What about being humiliated?
But the tone just now was quite questioning, which puzzled the Empress Dowager.
Xue Tianao had no intention of explaining to anyone. He came out and walked towards Xianghua Palace with Dongfang Ningxin, who was beaten and bloody from behind, with calm and graceful steps, without any impatience. When he arrived at Xianghua Palace
, the imperial physician has already been waiting at Xianghua Palace.
Seeing the beaten bloody Dongfang Ningxin, the imperial doctor was shocked at first, but fortunately he was used to such injuries in the palace, so he asked the medical girl to go to Dongfang Ningxin to remove her clothes and clean the wound...
The flesh and blood were blurred, and the clothes were already connected to the flesh, so it was not easy to take them off. Usually, one would wipe the clothes carefully with hot water and cut them open, but even holding on to them made Dongfang Ning scream in pain.
The pain connects the bones and flesh, the pain tears the wound, how can it not hurt.
"Hurry up." Xue Tianao looked at the clothes that had not been torn apart for a long time and said angrily.
The doctor girl thought that Xue Tian Ao was afraid of Dongfang Ning's heartache, so she became even more careful. Now Dongfang Ning's heart really didn't scream anymore, but her slowness made Xue Tian Ao feel even more angry.
He didn't care whether Dongfang Ningxin was in pain or not. He wouldn't die after a few pains. "Get out of the way." Seeing the slow movements of the medical woman, Xue Tianao waved the medical woman away and walked to Dongfang Ningxin's side.
before.
At this time, there were only Xue Tianao, the medical girl and Dongfang Ningxin in the room. When Xue Tianao looked at the injury on Dongfang Ningxin’s back, he didn’t say anything, and he didn’t even frown. The injury looked like
It's scary, but it won't kill anyone. It'll be fine if you keep it for a few months.
Looking at the clothes connected with flesh and blood, Xue Tianao didn't have the slightest patience and directly pulled up a clean corner on the side, and then... there was a crash.
"Ah..." Dongfang Ningxin screamed miserably. She didn't scream in pain when she was beaten, but when Xue Tianao moved so slightly, she screamed, which shows how painful the pain was.
The clothes were torn off directly, and as he moved, the wounds that had slowly solidified began to bleed desperately. The clothes casually thrown on the ground were still stained with pieces of flesh...
Such a terrifying action startled the medical woman and quickly backed away, but Xue Tian Aoqi told her to back away.
"Hurry up and clean her wound and apply medicine." He gave the order coldly, not caring at all about the woman who was bleeding all over the bed.
According to Xue Tianao's words, you can't die anyway...
"Yes, yes." Faced with Xue Tian'ao's move, the doctor's hands became a little soft and trembling, and this softness and trembling made Dongfang Ningxin, who was so painful that she fainted, suffer even more. But at this time,
No one cares whether she is in pain or not.
With the fastest speed in history, the medical woman managed Dongfang Ningxin's terrible back. After arranging her clothes, she obediently left and the imperial doctor came instead.
Imperial physician Dongfang Ning took Xin's pulse and prescribed a prescription to prevent wound inflammation and the patient's fever. He also prescribed some medicine for injuries.
"Your Majesty, I will send these medicines right away." the imperial doctor asked carefully.
"No, Shihu, please accompany the imperial doctor to get the medicine." Xue Tianao's tone was majestic and could not be refused.
"Yes." Shi Hu responded, looking at the imperial physician and motioning for him to hurry up.
Under Xue Tianao's glare and Shi Hu's "escort", the imperial physician quickly came to the Imperial Hospital, quickly prepared medicine for Shi Hu, and sent him away with a respectful look.
God, if I go to Prince Xue's place more often, he will lose many years of his life. The imperial doctor leaned on the door panel and panted heavily.
After getting the medicine, Shi Hu quickly came to Xue Tianao's study. As for Dongfang Ningxin? I'm sorry for the people who can't die for a while. No one has time to care about her because there is a more important patient waiting for this medicine to save her.
.
"Your Highness, the medicine is here." Shi Hu breathed a sigh of relief and held all the medicine in his hand in front of Xue Tianao.
