Seven or eight men in coarse cloth were brought over by the guards of the racecourse, and they knelt on the ground in fear.
The guard said coldly: "These eight people are the ones responsible for this lawn. Please deal with it, Your Majesty!"
Steward Du cursed angrily: "How do you, these useless losers, usually do things! You can't even clean up a small lawn, and you actually left stones behind, which almost hurt the young prince!"
"Your Majesty, forgive me..."
"Slave...Slave, you don't have any intention!"
"Please, my lord, spare my life!"
When these servants heard what Guanshi Du said, they were frightened out of their wits and knelt on the ground in cold sweat, kowtowing.
Zhan Bei said coldly: "You neglect your duties, how should you deal with it?"
Manager Du trembled and said: "According to the rules, you will be beaten fifty times with a cane, fined for half a year, and depending on the seriousness of the case, you will be kicked out of the racecourse..."
"Since you know, why don't you do it?" The man's cold eyes glanced over.
"Yes, yes...I will do it now, thank you, Your Majesty."
Steward Du nodded and bowed in agreement, wiped a handful of cold sweat, turned to look at the servants, a ferocious look appeared on his smooth face, gritted his teeth and said: "Drag them all down and beat them hard!"
"My lord, please forgive me, but the manager, please forgive me..."
Seven or eight servants were dragged down by the guards, crying and screaming, their faces covered with frightened tears and snot.
Xiao Lingyue frowned. In her opinion, this punishment was a bit severe.
However, everyone including Zhan Beihan, King Xiang, and King Cheng behaved as they should.
Some people even felt that it was not heavy enough and whispered: "I almost hurt the young prince, so I only hit him fifty with the cane..."
"It should be beaten to death directly!"
"These servants are useless if they don't fight. Let's see if they dare to neglect their duties in the future."
It's not the point that the servants neglected their duties.
Because of their negligence, Han Han was almost injured because they did not clean the stones. This was the main reason why they were punished.
Even Meng Wanqing, the culprit, didn't think anything was wrong. She still felt dissatisfied and shouted: "If these useless servants hadn't been negligent, even if I accidentally pushed down the young prince, nothing would happen to him.
Brother Yiwang, have you heard everything?
Don’t really blame me!
It’s all the fault of these useless servants, you should kill them and teach them a lesson!”
Xiao Lingyue heard the sarcasm: "My servant received fifty slaps because of his negligence, so what about you, the person who pushed Hanhan with your own hands?"
After all, if she hadn't pushed her, nothing like this would have happened.
Don't say that Hanhan kicked her first.
Hanhan has never been a willful naughty child.
He was just protecting his mother and would not allow anyone to say bad things about Xiao Lingyue. If Meng Wanqing had not been selfish and insisted on belittling Xiao Lingyue in front of Han Han, Han Han would not be so angry that she would kick her.
"You bitch! I haven't settled the score with you yet. Who do you think you are? You dare to hit me in the face?"
Meng Wanqing's eyes were red, she rushed over and hit Xiao Lingyue in the face.
"I'll fight you!"
Xiao Lingyue blocked her hand, raised her hand and slapped her face again.
Snapped!
Meng Wanqing was beaten so hard that half of her face turned sideways, her body staggered and she fell to the ground with a plop.
"You..." Her eyes were red with anger, she covered her face, and tears fell from her eyes in pain.
Xiao Lingyue looked at her condescendingly and said coldly: "This slap is a shameless slap to you for seducing a man in broad daylight and bringing shame to the Meng family and the Crown Princess!"
