The sound of the board hitting someone outside was clearly heard in the hall. Chu Qinghuang saw that the boy's face had returned to normal. She slowly withdrew her hand. The next moment, she saw Fu Cang turn over and get out of bed neatly, put on his clothes in the shortest time, and kneel straight on the ground again.

His eyebrows were slightly lowered, and he looked submissive and submissive.

Chu Qinghuang knew that this boy was actually always unruly in his bones. He had been tortured by Chu Qinghuang and never gave in.

Chu Qinghuang asked him to beg for mercy, and used various means to force him and torment him. He just gritted his teeth when he was in great pain. Although the shadow could not resist the master, he always maintained the backbone of the shadow who would rather die than surrender, and retained his unique arrogant stubbornness.

Although the more stubborn he was, the more Chu Qinghuang's strong anger was aroused again and again, and in exchange for more severe torture, he never begged for mercy once.

According to Chu Qinghuang's temper, this time the shadow was poisoned and offended her. With her methods, Fu Cang would have to take off three layers of skin if he didn't die.

Fu Cang obviously knew Chu Qinghuang's temperament, so he would not defend himself at all, but would silently endure all the methods Chu Qinghuang used on him until he exhausted the last bit of vitality and closed his eyes.

Her eyes fell silently on his handsome face, and Chu Qinghuang said calmly: "How old are you this year?"

After Fu Cang came to Chu Qinghuang, Chu Qinghuang never talked to him in a casual way, except for orders and torture.

So Fu Cang was stunned for a moment, and then he lowered his eyebrows and replied: "Seventeen."

Chu Qinghuang didn't speak.

Seventeen years old, still young, nine years away from the death of twenty-six years old.

She remembered that in the last few years, because Chu Qinghuang became more and more disgusted with him, the torture became more and more severe, which led to the serious damage of his body.

It is only the second year since he was asked to stay with Chu Qinghuang. His body has not been damaged too seriously. With some good medicine, he should be able to recover.

"Your Highness." The guard knelt outside the palace and reported, "The prince consort fainted from the pain."

Chu Qinghuang came back to her senses and said calmly, "Have you finished beating him with fifty boards?"

The guard replied cautiously, "Not yet."

After all, Feng Jinzhi had always been the princess's favorite, and he was born in the prime minister's mansion. Even if they disliked him, they really didn't dare to beat him to death.

"Then continue by pouring water on him to wake him up." Chu Qinghuang said indifferently, "Just keep him alive."

"Yes."

Chu Qinghuang sat quietly for a moment, sorted out her thoughts, and got up from the bed.

Fu Cang stepped forward to put on her shoes first. The young man knelt on the ground. His slim black clothes perfectly outlined his smooth back, and even his neck was slender and beautiful.

She was not someone who would be fascinated by beauty, but she still couldn't understand why the violent princess had the heart to destroy such a rare shadow player who was outstanding in all aspects?

Chu Qinghuang watched quietly. After putting on his shoes, the boy knelt and took a step back. He was always respectful and did not overstep the mark.

Walking out of the bedroom, Chu Qinghuang saw the guards bring a basin of cold water and mercilessly splash it on Feng Jinzhi who was lying on the ground.

The eldest son of the Feng family, who was indignant and sarcastic just now, was lying on the ground like a dying dog, trembling with pain, his hair covered his pale face, and there was a shocking bloodstain on his pants under his robe.

The servants who were watching saw the princess coming out and knelt down to pay their respects.

Chu Qinghuang didn't say anything. He looked at Feng Jinzhi lying on the ground with a very indifferent look and turned away indifferently.

"Woo... woo woo woo..." A weak and painful voice sounded, and because of the trembling in the voice that could not be ignored, it naturally sounded a bit weak, "Woo woo!"

Chu Qinghuang raised his eyebrows slightly, stopped, and turned to look at him: "Do you have anything to say?"

Seeing this, the guards were afraid that the princess would be soft-hearted towards Feng Jinzhi again, and they couldn't help but stop swinging the board. In fact, they were also nervous at this moment. Just now, out of dissatisfaction with Feng Jinzhi, they beat him really hard.

But the princess has always liked Feng Jinzhi. Although she didn't know why she was angry and punished Feng Jinzhi today, she saw Feng Jinzhi's miserable appearance now. If they couldn't help but feel distressed again, they were afraid that they would suffer.

Feng Jinzhi raised his head with difficulty and looked at Chu Qinghuang.

Chu Qinghuang raised his hand and signaled the guards to take out the thing stuffed in his mouth.

The guards did so.

"Chu...Chu Qinghuang..." Feng Jinzhi had no time to speak, and he spoke hoarsely, his voice full of gloomy and resentful questioning, "You...you have lost your mind?"

"It seems that the prince consort has not learned his lesson yet." Chu Qinghuang's voice was indifferent, "Block him and continue to beat him."

After saying that, he turned back to the palace.

Feng Jinzhi's pupils shrank suddenly, and just as he was about to speak, the guard had rudely stuffed the cloth back into his mouth, and the board was smashed down again, only to make him black in front of his eyes and almost die of pain.

Back in the palace, the maid Jinlan came in to serve after getting permission, and whispered: "What happened to the prince today?"

Chu Qinghuang looked at her.

"Your Highness has always been very fond of Young Master Feng, why today..."

Chu Qinghuang said indifferently: "Feng Jinzhi violated the rules and dared to insult me. If I report it to the emperor, it would not be too much to kill him. A mere beating is already a bargain for him."

With the emperor's current doting on the seventh princess, offending the princess is equivalent to offending the emperor. Even if it is the son of the prime minister, he can be sentenced to death.

What's more, the emperor has long been dissatisfied with the prime minister's mansion, and all he needs is an excuse to vent.

"I know your Highness is kind." Jinlan ordered the other maids to prepare hot water for the princess to bathe, and then continued, "It's just that your Highness has been very indulgent to the Prince Consort in the past, and today I don't understand."

Your Highness is kind?

Chu Qinghuang pulled the corner of her lips imperceptibly, the original owner was not a kind person.

"From today on, all the privileges that the Prince Consort has in the Princess's Mansion will be cancelled, and there is no need to treat him too favorably." Chu Qinghuang's eyebrows were cold, and there was no special expression on her beautiful face. "You will notify them later that all matters in the Princess's Mansion must be reported to me, and the Prince Consort will no longer have the power to issue orders on my behalf."

Jinlan was relieved and responded respectfully: "Yes."

Although she didn't know what made the princess suddenly become so wise, such a change was obviously very good. Those who were loyal to her Highness hated Feng Jinzhi and wished that her Highness would divorce him immediately.

But His Highness's temperament seems to be a little different from before.
