Chapter 256 - 256 Trouble



The Empress did not kick her when she was down. After all, the Marquis of An’s Residence had already been destroyed. Without Consort Xian’s backing, she could not do anything.

“Cousin?” Ning Yue sneered. Did she have a cousin like Consort Xian?

The empress saw through Ning Yue’s thoughts and ordered the eunuch to detain Concubine Shun. “Give her 50 strokes.”

“No! Empress, please spare me. Empress, please spare me!” Concubine Shun was so frightened that her face turned ashen. She was finished after 50 strokes.

!!

“It’s not that I’m unwilling to let you off, but you did something wrong. Naturally, you have to be punished,” the empress said calmly.

The paddle hit Concubine Shun’s body, causing her to cry out in pain.

She tried to struggle, but she couldn’t escape the eunuchs’ grip.

“I was wrong, I was wrong…” Concubine Shun was weak from the beating, but she did not forget to admit her mistake.

After a while, she fainted.

50 strokes of the paddle, not one less stroke. Even if Concubine Shun was unconscious, they had to hit her. In the end, Concubine Shun could be said to be a bloody mess.

At this moment, Consort Xian was on her way here. She was not here because Concubine Shun had been defeated, but because she wanted to see Jiang Ying make a fool of himself.

However, she did not expect to see Concubine Shun covered in blood as soon as she arrived.

Consort Xian was shocked and hurriedly asked, “Empress, I wonder what mistake Concubine Shun made to be beaten up like this.”

“Doesn’t Consort Xian know that it’s her fault?” the empress asked coldly.

When the Empress asked this, Consort Xian almost couldn’t suppress the anger in her heart.

She had only asked Concubine Shun to make things difficult for Jiang Ying. Even if she embarrassed Jiang Ying, it was not a big deal. Did she have to be punished to this extent?

Ning Yue and Jiang Ying stood at the side. When they saw Consort Xian, they couldn’t be bothered to greet her. In any case, the layer of harmony on the surface had already been torn apart. Why pretend? They were exhausted.

“I don’t know. Empress, please tell me.” Consort Xian suppressed the anger in her heart.

The empress smiled, glanced at Ning Yue, and told Consort Xian everything.

Consort Xian was shocked by Ning Yue’s identity. She looked at her in shock.

“How can she be the princess of Russia? There must be something wrong! Isn’t the emperor of Russia afraid that something will happen so he rashly acknowledged Ning Yue?”

“Oh? A problem?” Ning Yue smiled. She made it clear. “You can’t accept that my status is higher than yours, right?”

Consort Xian’s expression froze. That was true, but she could not admit it!

“I’m the consort of the Emperor of Great Yun. Our statuses are similar. This can’t be compared,” Consort Xian said.

Just as Ning Yue was about to explain, a low male voice came in. “You’re wrong! Ning Yue is the daughter of my biological sister and the crown prince of my Russia. Do you dare to compare yourself to the crown prince of the Eastern Palace?”

Ning Yue looked over. It was Yuan Hui.

Yuan Hui was furious at this scene. He had come over after chatting with the emperor about resisting the enemy. He did not expect to encounter Ning Yue being bullied.

He turned and gave the emperor a long look. The emperor was frightened by his gaze.

Although he was frightened in his heart, the emperor did not show it on his face. He braced himself and said, “Consort Xian, this is your fault. Apologize to Princess Mingyue!”

Consort Xian’s eyes widened. The emperor actually wanted her to apologize to Ning Yue. What kind of joke was this?

“Your majesty, I…”

Consort Xian was about to say something when she was interrupted by the emperor. “You what? I want you to apologize to Princess Mingyue!”

The emperor was also angry. She was so troublesome. It was not easy for Consort Xian to survive, but she was still disobedient.

God knew how difficult it was to talk to Yuan Hui about joining forces to resist the enemy in the meeting hall. He was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

Consort Xian was indignant. She turned her head away. She refused to apologize!

“It seems that the emperor’s concubines are not very obedient,” Yuan Hui said with a smile.

See? This was the bad thing about taking a concubine.

Although Consort Xian’s title was the emperor’s consort, she was actually still a concubine. She just had a higher status than ordinary concubines.

In ancient times, when men took concubines, it was like modern men looking for a lover. They would make a huge fuss.

Wasn’t monogamy good? There wouldn’t be so much trouble.

As soon as Yuan Hui said this, the emperor lost his face. He instructed the guards in a low voice, “Men! Send Consort Xian to prison!”
