The maids and women who were kneeling outside looked at each other in confusion, with a bit of fear and uneasiness in their eyebrows. Then a woman stood up and looked around coldly: "Master Marquis is ordered, and you haven't even heard?"
After saying this, everyone stood up and rushed in together as if they had a tacit understanding, and soon dragged the two female officials out.
"What are you doing? You're so arrogant!" A female official yelled at her mother-in-law, "Let me go!"
The mother-in-law didn't seem to hear her, and kept dragging her away with rough and forceful movements, as if she was afraid that if they stayed here, they would disturb the Marquis's rules.
"Are you trying to rebel? When I return to the palace to report to the queen, I will kill you all with a stick! Let me go!"
Bang!
The door was shut tightly, completely cutting off the outside view. However, covering your eyes did not mean you could cover your ears. After a while, a sharp sound sounded inside, which was the sound of a whip cutting through the air.
"ah!"
Situ Wan's screams rang out, shocking the two female officials outside. They tried harder to break free: "Master Yan! Master Yan! The Queen has a decree that you are not allowed to harm Miss Situ -"
"Miss Situ has married into the Marquis's Mansion. From now on, she will live and die in the Marquis' Mansion. How can the Empress still manage the Marquis's discipline of his own wife?" The mother-in-law, who had been disciplined for several days in a row, smiled coldly, wishing that Situ Wan would be punished immediately.
It would be better to beat her to death. "If the queen hadn't indulged Miss Situ until now, how could the Situ family be in this situation? What's ridiculous is that the queen actually sent two female officials to the Hou Mansion to support the wife and set rules for us?
This marriage to the Marquis was given personally by the Emperor. If the Emperor knew that the Queen treated the Marquis like this, I wonder if Long Yan would be furious."
The faces of the two female officials changed, but they heard the nanny say again: "If you dare to enter the palace and tell the queen, we will go to the prince's palace to complain, and people from the prince's palace will enter the palace to report to the emperor -"
"Ah!" More and more shrill screams came from the house. Situ Wan was so painful that he rolled on the ground holding his head, "Yan Wei! You don't have to die well, you must not die well! Aunt Queen will not let you go. She will not let you go."
No-ah!”
"Bitch!" The whip in Yan Wei's hand hit her hard, one after another, "I told you to file a complaint! You go and file a complaint! How dare you call your mother into the palace and ask the queen to put pressure on her? Bitch
, you really have the heart of a bear and the courage of a leopard!"
The two female officials no longer had the arrogant attitude they had before. They were restrained by others. They were helpless as they watched Situ Wan being beaten. However, a group of maids and women stood outside with respectful expressions on their faces, but a bit of joy in their eyes.
Meaning.
They thought that with the Queen's pressure, Situ Wan was really going to stand up and take charge. In the past few days, she had punished them so much that they were all complaining, and none of them dared to speak out. Several maids were beaten until they were still lying on the bed.
I thought the retribution for this world would come so quickly.
You really deserve it.
To their ears, Situ Wan's painful wails sounded better than the music played by the most talented oiran in the imperial city.
Time passed little by little.
In the room, Situ Wan's clothes were torn, and the whip marks all over his body looked particularly shocking. His whole body curled up into a ball like a broken rag doll, and even his moans were much softer.
Yan Wei threw away the whip in his hand and looked down at her coldly: "You like to complain so much, you can go now. I would like to know if you can afford the crime of murdering the Crown Princess and see if the Queen can protect her.
Got you!"
After saying this, he turned around, opened the door and walked out. Facing the servants in the yard, he coldly ordered: "Since the two female officials came here to take care of Situ Wan on the Queen's order, it is because you stay here to take care of her.
, everyone else has dispersed, and no one is allowed to step into this courtyard without my or the old lady’s instructions."
This sentence gave the servants a reassurance, meaning that as long as there was no order from the old lady or the Marquis, they did not have to pay attention to any request made by Situ Wan.
Situ Wan had just lived a comfortable life for a few days, and was thrown back to hell in the blink of an eye, and would never have a chance to turn around from now on.
After leaving the main courtyard, Yan Wei went to the old lady's Cixin Hall. After paying his respects to his mother, he described the incident with a gloomy expression. After hearing this, the old lady's face changed greatly: "She dared to murder the crown princess?"
"Yeah." Yan Wei sat down on the chair next to him, with anger still lingering on his face, "What a bitch who harbors evil intentions! She wants to kill our family!"
The old lady turned livid with anger: "This little bitch is really restless!"
"She murdered the Crown Princess first, so even if she went to the palace, the Queen would have no reason to protect her." Yan Wei said in a gloomy tone, "But my son doesn't want to make things worse, so I've asked her to stay in the palace for the past two days.
You are not allowed to go, please help my mother look after her."
The old lady nodded slowly: "We really can't let her go out and cause harm to others. If she causes trouble again, the Hou Mansion won't be able to implicate her."
Yan Wei didn't say anything. He already had a son and a daughter. Situ Wan was the emperor's wife. If she could keep her peace, he would naturally not treat her badly.
But this bitch dared to show off to them on the day she got married, and made it difficult for her mother to stand down in front of all the guests. After getting married, she was still restless. It didn't matter that she harmed her own eldest brother, but now she still wants to harm the Hou Mansion?
Yan Wei will never let her continue to act unscrupulously.
"Situ Wan's plot to murder the Crown Princess..." The old lady raised her head and looked at her son, "How did you know about it?"
"Words from people coming from the Prince's Mansion."
The old lady looked worried: "Son, what I'm worried about now is that if something happens to the prince, the princess will not be a match for the queen. Then..."
"Mom, there is no need to worry about this problem. The Crown Prince's Palace is fine." Yan Wei said firmly, "Although I am no longer the commander of the Royal Forest Army, I have been with the Emperor for more than ten years, so I still have some understanding of the Emperor."
Others may have been obsessed by the desire for power and lack some judgment, but Yan Wei knew that the emperor was now calm and calm, and it was time to go to court and just pretend that nothing happened - this was enough to prove that the prince was safe and sound.
Otherwise, the emperor would be so furious that he would not order a thorough investigation of the assassin. By then, both the guilty and the innocent, as well as those with the slightest suspicion, would be imprisoned and tortured and interrogated.
The prince is the only blood heir to the royal family. The assassination of the prince is not a trivial matter. According to common sense, it will only involve a large area. How can it be so peaceful?
"When things go wrong, there must be monsters." Yan Wei reassured, "Mom, don't worry about unnecessary worries."
The old lady felt relieved after hearing what he said: "I hope His Royal Highness will be well soon."
