He finally didn't bother to look at the embarrassed and ugly woman again, but waved his hand a little tiredly, "Go to the side room next to Guwai's study."
Zhao Yuechan's already desperate heart suddenly came to life after hearing these words.
really!
Sure enough, the prince would still miss the late empress and would not kill him directly.
She would not even be imprisoned in the Criminal Punishment Department again. Just a moment ago, she saw the most terrifying scene in her life in the Criminal Punishment Department. Those dark and stained bloodstains were simply a living nightmare.
in front of oneself.
She didn't notice the complicated look on Zhao Mingxi's face.
No one knows that the prince actually has some special hobbies.
This was the result of being suppressed for too long in front of Emperor Yufeng. Whenever he was suppressed to the point of hatred, he would lock some of the people he hated into a side room next to his study.
Where is the side room? It is clearly a torture chamber.
I heard that the torture chamber was built based on the torture chamber in Dongchang, and the equipment inside was also modeled after those in Zhao Prison and Dongchang Prison.
The prince didn't build that torture chamber just for questioning.
This point is even different from Dongchang and Jinyiwei. He simply enjoys the pleasure of abuse.
If she hadn't seen the prince being beaten so hard one time, she would have felt really uneasy. She would have looked around and walked into that place by mistake. Even she would not have known that the prince had such a secret and sadistic habit.
Zhao Yuechan obviously didn't know either, so she was actually a little lucky at this time.
There are other people who also don't know. The prince's punishment fell into the ears of other people, which meant that the net was wide open.
This makes people more firmly believe that the prince's tolerance for the Zhao family has no bottom line.
It is precisely for this reason that some people are somewhat dissatisfied.
The first ones to rush to the front are naturally those women in the East Palace who have been oppressed by Zhao Yuechan too many times. If they don't take advantage of someone's illness and kill someone, they will never have another chance in the future.
So the prince's concubine listed all the things he had been bullied by Zhao Yuechan, including but not limited to beatings and scoldings, humiliation, and extortionate deductions from interest...
There was even a concubine who was forced to kneel on broken pieces of porcelain for two hours. Her knees were completely damaged and she was unable to attend the small New Year's banquet tonight.
This is why the courtiers and wives who attended tonight's New Year's Eve banquet heard about such a real, vivid and terrifying side of Zhao Yuechan.
Many people's eyes fell on the eldest wife of the Zhao family.
The British princess looked at Ye Jinxi with worry. Her children knew that Ye Jinxi was a dull person most of the time in the crowd.
Not to mention that marrying into the East Palace is not her original wish, but she has a high status and status.
In the struggle between women in this palace, high status is the original sin.
It was not until this time that the British princess knew that the environment in the backyard of the East Palace was so bad, and she was inevitably worried about Ye Jinxi.
However, she found that her niece seemed a little out of sorts tonight.
So many things happened just now, but she didn't seem to pay much attention to them.
Even though she was a little surprised when she learned the truth, the surprise was quickly driven away by her worried eyes.
Jinxi has something on her mind, this is what the British princess immediately said in her heart.
She raised this child by herself, so she knew exactly what kind of expression and what kind of mood it represented.
So regardless of the rules, she still squeezed in next to Ye Jinxi with the help of everyone's cover, "Jinxi..."
As soon as she opened her mouth, Ye Jinxi spoke directly to the prince above her, without even hearing her voice.
"Your Highness!"
In the dull hall, a bright female voice suddenly sounded, which immediately attracted the attention of others.
Ye Jinxi thought for a while, then adjusted the expression on her face, pretending to be weak, "What happened tonight was really too shocking.
Concubine Zhao was so bold that she even dared to drug His Highness. In fact, our sisters in the East Palace have been under her power for this period of time.
Occasionally, there will be some soup and water given by her, or for some reason, I was called to chat with her and eat together..."
As she spoke, she seemed to become more and more timid, and she hesitated for a while before she mustered up the courage to say: "I have always been timid, and I am really worried about my health.
There are so many imperial doctors here right now, could you please give me a favor and ask all the imperial doctors to take a look at our sisters, so that if... we really encounter any situation, it is best to treat us in time."
These words aroused a chorus of approval, not only from the frightened women in the East Palace, but also from their families.
Although not everyone had relatives present, there were many.
Therefore, there are many people who agree with this matter.
The British princess-in-law became more and more nervous, fearing that her niece had already felt uncomfortable in some way, and she only remembered it when she thought about it, so she mentioned this.
Even though she was extremely anxious, at this moment, her sense suddenly flashed through and she looked at Ye Jinxi suspiciously.
When everyone agreed, she finally squeezed in next to her niece and asked in confusion: "What's wrong with you? Even if you think there is something wrong, you should check it slowly after you go back.
Why don't you worry about this one night? Even if you are scared, I can take you home. After what happened tonight, you are frightened and want to go home and stay for one night. It is natural.
Even His Highness will not stop this matter.
After leaving the palace and arriving at home, whatever you want to do, my aunt won't think of a way for you, so why bother adding insult to injury at this time?"
That's right, for Ye Jinxi to stand up and talk about this matter at this time is just adding insult to injury.
If anyone present found something wrong, the problem would fall on Zhao Yuechan.
The British princess-in-law is not a pretty girl. She has been through many ups and downs over the years, not to mention that the whole capital knew about their family's affairs.
After a simple analysis, I knew that my niece probably really had a personal grudge against Zhao Yuechan.
"Auntie, I don't know what the grudge is between you and that Zhao Yuechan, but my child, behind Zhao Yuechan is the Zhao family, and the princess of their Zhao family is still sitting there!
You are from the East Palace, there is no way to escape from here in this life, and you still have to live your life looking at the face of that princess, why are you so adventurous now?"
The British princess's voice was fast and urgent, but she was afraid that others would hear her, so she kept her voice very low.
Such quick and suppressed words made Ye Jinxi feel temporarily depressed.
But she knew that she was upset about something else, not her aunt who cared about her right now.
So, after thinking for a while, she had no choice but to grab her aunt's hand and said helplessly: "I was too impatient. Zhao Yuechan went too far some time ago, and my niece was also very angry for a while."
Hearing what she said, the British father-in-law couldn't bear to blame her. She just felt that her child's life was miserable because he had to end up in such an environment.
So he immediately changed his tone, "That's all, it's not a big deal. The Zhao family is amazing, our Ye family is not vegetarian anymore, we still have aunt and uncle here!"
That Zhao Yuechan also brought it upon herself, it’s all her own fault for being so bold and daring to do such a thing.”
While he was talking, Zhao Mingxi had already ordered the imperial doctor to come forward and treat them.
The British princess immediately stared nervously at the finger on Ye Jinxi's wrist, clenching the handkerchief in her hand.
