Mind Reading: The Road to Dominance of the Group’s Pet Princess

Chapter 17 The Shock in the Duke’s Mansion (2)

Although she was humiliated, her daughter-in-law's life was at stake, so the Duke's wife had no intention of retreating. She looked around, wanting to discuss it with the other captain of the guard.

Li Dongliang was disdainful in his heart, so what if he was a first-class Duke's wife? Now she was not begging him in a humble manner!

If you don't leave now, I'm afraid he wants to negotiate with another captain of the guard. Haha, that person has long been sent elsewhere by him!

If he has done something good in making things difficult for the Du family this time, he will definitely be able to show his face in front of Mr. Fang. With Mr. Fang's support, his official position will definitely rise steadily. If he can get Concubine Shu to say a nice word for him in front of the emperor, then... ....

"The old lady is not well. The prince's wife is having a difficult delivery. I'm afraid, I'm afraid she won't be able to hold on for much longer!"

The Duke's wife staggered and almost fell to the ground. After being supported by the little maid beside her, she could no longer restrain herself and rushed outside!

Li Dongliang looked hard and shouted, "Stop, if you want to rebel, if you dare to break through the restricted area, you will be shot to death!"

After saying that, he raised his knife and started to chop. The light of the knife went straight towards the face of the Duke's wife!

Li Dongliang didn't really want to kill the Duke's wife, he just wanted to scare her. If she is timid and gets scared, he can't be blamed!

The next moment, the sound of broken flesh and blood was heard, and warm blood splashed on the butler's face!

As the thunder roared, the rain became even heavier!

......

On the second day, everyone in Duke Du's palace broke through the forbidden line of the Imperial Guard, suspected of treason. The news that the Duke's wife and several other masters were killed on the spot spread like wildfire, causing an uproar in Shangjing!

Regardless of whether they were princes, officials, or ordinary people, they all rushed to find out the news. Unfortunately, the news was tightly blocked. All they knew was that there were so many people killed and injured in Du Guogong's mansion last night, and blood seeped out from the door of the mansion. So far, No ordinary people dared to pass by the Duke's mansion!

No other information could be found out no matter what, it was as if a hand had blocked the information!

In the Jinluan Hall, it was as quiet as death!

The military attachés' eyes were wide open and their expressions were dazed, as if they had suffered a huge blow. The civilian officials had different reactions, some showed regret, some were expressionless, and some had a faint sense of joy in their eyes.

There were also civil servants with resentment in their eyes and sadness on their faces.

Emperor Shun's voice was so gloomy that it seemed like water could drip from his eyes. He looked at the expressionless civil and military officials below the stage and said word by word, "Who can tell me what is going on?"

"There is insufficient evidence in Du Guogong's case, and the palace is full of female relatives, so why would they want to rebel! In my opinion, it is you who want to rebel!"

"Your Majesty, please calm down. I am afraid."

Seeing the emperor's rage, all the civil and military officials knelt down to plead guilty. Looking at the black heads, Emperor Shun felt that these people deserved to die. For their own selfish desires, they framed Zhongliang and ignored the justice of the country!

"All the Imperial Guards who committed the crime yesterday have been detained in Dali Temple. The main culprit, the Chief of Guards, will be interrogated by me personally tomorrow. You'd better pray that they have nothing to do with this case!"

Seeing His Majesty leave, Watson hid his sadness. His mother fainted when he heard the bad news of his sister's death. His brother-in-law's life and death were uncertain, and the future of his two nephews was in doubt. He had to cheer up and plan carefully.

When he was about to step into the carriage after leaving the palace gate, a hoarse voice came from behind him.

"Master Hua, please stay!"

Watson turned around and saw the Secretary of the Ministry of Personnel, "Master Li," with bloodshot eyes and a haggard expression.

Li Nian returned the salute, and the two looked at each other and stepped into the carriage in Washington.

The situation in the previous dynasty was turbulent, but the harem was still in a peaceful scene on the surface. Concubine Shu was sitting on the small couch with a sickly smile on her face, holding a small cloth bag in her hand.

"Your Majesty, be good. My mother-in-law is going to avenge you soon. Aren't you happy?"

"When the time comes, how about the mother-in-law personally sends the bitch who killed you to stay with you? There will also be a little bitch born by the bitch, and the mother-in-law will not let her go!"

"Let them all die and be buried with my prince!"

Aunt Fei dismissed all the palace maids and eunuchs, and she was the only one in Concubine Shu's bedroom. Although she had seen a lot of storms over the years, she could not help but tremble when she heard Concubine Shu's nervous voice coming from the inner palace.

Once, because she was worried about Concubine Shu's health, she broke into the bedroom, only to see Concubine Shu holding a small cloth bag in her arms, crying and laughing nervously.

The look in Concubine Shu's face at that time was something she would never forget. It was absolutely impossible for a normal person to show such a look. It sent chills down the spine!

The little palace maid who went in with her was given "one foot of red". From then on, the experience was so unforgettable that Aunt Fei would never forget it in her life.

I thought that this time Concubine Shu "went crazy" and had to lock herself in the dormitory for most of the day. Unexpectedly, she came out after a while, with wet tears still on her face.

"Mommy, please accompany me to Jinghong Hall, I can't wait." I can't wait to see the miserable condition of Concubine De.

If Concubine Shu was normal, Aunt Fei would dare to persuade her to think twice. Now Aunt Fei doesn't dare to let go of anything, so she should just go and make arrangements.

The young eunuch on duty at the entrance of Jinghong Hall saw Concubine Shu's ceremonial carriage approaching from a distance. Thinking of the two empresses' celebration, he immediately rushed into Jinghong Hall to report to Xiao Anzi.

Concubine De was currently copying scriptures in the inner hall. When she heard what Xiao Anzi reported, she waved her hands indifferently.

"I'll tell you soon that I'm not feeling well and can't see guests. Let Concubine Shu go back."

At this time, she was not in the mood to argue with Concubine Shu. If she had this time, she might as well copy more scriptures and pray for her father and brother.

Xiao Anzi was afraid that the little eunuch below would not be able to stop Concubine Shu, so he waited at the door. When he saw Concubine Shu going to Jinghong Hall regardless of her manners, Xiao Anzi greeted her with a smile on her face.

"Greetings to Concubine Shu, my wife is not feeling well today and may not be able to see guests. Please forgive me, Concubine Shu."

Concubine Shu stepped down from the jade chariot, ignored Xiao Anzi, and walked quickly into Jinghong Hall. She couldn't wait to see Concubine De's ugly appearance.

Xiao Anzi saw that Concubine Shu couldn't understand "human language", so he could only retreat and said again, "Please forgive me, Concubine Shu. Our empress is not feeling well and cannot see guests."

If the concubine was an ordinary concubine, she would have left when Xiao Anzi said it for the first time. Concubine Shu had made up her mind to see Concubine De in her desolate state. How could she give up!

The eldest palace maid received the signal from her master's eyes, stepped forward quickly, rounded her arms, and knocked Xiao Anzi to the ground with a slap. Xiao Anzi bent down to salute, and did not pay attention to the palace maid's movements. She only came to her senses after being beaten.

Concubine Shu didn't need anyone else to open the way, she just rushed inside alone. The other little eunuchs didn't even dare to step forward to stop Concubine Shu. Xiao Anzi got up directly and raised his voice and said, "Concubine Shu, how can you ignore my concubine?" The sick body has forced its way into our Jinghong Hall. Our queen has been weak recently and cannot bear the cold."

Concubine De also heard the commotion outside the palace. She put down the ink pen in her hand and walked out. She looked at Concubine Shu who came with no kindness and smiled slightly and said, "How come Concubine Shu has time to come to Jinghong Hall?"

Xiao Anzi ran over from behind, and Concubine De's face darkened when she saw the bright red slap marks on Xiao Anzi's face.

Seeing Concubine De's face, Concubine Shu felt happy in her heart. She covered her mouth and smiled and said, "It's a good thing that sister De Concubine is kind-hearted, but the palace servants here should train her carefully. It's a trivial matter for me to bump into my sister today. What if?" It would be a big deal if I bumped into His Majesty."

"Sister has already taught this ignorant slave a lesson for my sister. It's a big thank you to my people."

Concubine Shu's eldest maid has been with Concubine Shu since she was a child. She is the best at cooperating with Concubine Shu in playing double acts. She immediately said, "What the empress said is that after beating this slave, my hands are all red."
