There was a hint of embarrassment on Yun Susu's fair and delicate face. She took a deep breath and was about to speak.

aside.

Lin Xilan took the lead.

She stroked her chin, leaned back in her chair with interest, and said slowly, "Princess Mingzhu, I was the one who punished her. Whether the punishment was severe or not, why are you asking the Ninth Imperial Concubine? If you want to make a decision for Miss Wang, just come to me directly. What you mean is that I was too harsh in punishing her?"

Wang Linger is really miserable now.

However, this tragic situation could not have been caused by Cuiyun, the little maidservant beside her. After all, the girl was still a minor.

How much strength could she have to beat Wang Linger into such a second-degree disabled state?

As for who had re-injured the opponent's injuries...

Self-explanatory!

Ah.

Ah.

Princess Mingzhu was using Wang Linger's incident to deliberately embarrass her in public.

She wanted to use the power of public opinion to bring disgrace upon her, the regent princess? She was dreaming!

"Princess Mingzhu, I am asking you a question, why don't you answer?"

Jiang Mingzhu looked arrogant and said through gritted teeth, "That's right! Just because of a few words, you beat Miss Wang into this state. The royal aunt is too inhumane..."

"No need to talk so much nonsense. I just want to ask you one question. Do you think that I have dealt with it too harshly? Do you want me to handle it according to the normal procedures?" Lin Xilan interrupted her impatiently.

She looked gloomy.

He was not at all annoyed by Jiang Mingzhu's words, but a sneer at the corner of his lips gave Jiang Mingzhu a bad feeling.

next moment--

Lin Xilan continued.

"Cuiyun, go and invite the two ladies who were talking to Miss Wang just now over here, and ask them to repeat everything Miss Wang just said word for word."

"Yes."

Wang Linger felt a little flustered.

but.

He soon calmed down.

even if……

Even if she was really disrespectful, she had the protection of Princess Mingzhu, so she had nothing to fear. After all, Princess Mingzhu had the Princess and Duke Jiang standing behind her. Most importantly, the Regent doted on her so much that it was more than enough for him to protect her!

The two noble ladies were soon invited to come before Lin Xilan, and they tremblingly repeated what Wang Linger had said.

……

"What good fortune does the Ninth Imperial Concubine have? Her husband is bedridden and has turned into a living dead from time to time. She can only come back to life occasionally, and it's not certain whether she can be human. Even if the Ninth Prince has a fortune, what can it do? It's only a matter of time before he dies! Yun Susu will still be a widow for the rest of her life. What's more terrible is that if one day His Majesty remembers the money bag of the Ninth Prince's Mansion, the imperial edict will be issued, and all the money will be added to the national treasury. What will she have left by then? She will just be a poor person with no money, no husband, and no children."

"After the fall of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Yun Susu, without the support of her family, will face hard times ahead..."

"The entire capital is waiting to see Lin Xilan's joke. She pestered the Regent and did all kinds of shameless things before she got the Regent. She will definitely have a hard time in the future. Let's just wait for her to be kicked out by His Royal Highness the Regent..."

……

The two of them repeated the words one by one, word for word.

Mrs. Hanlin looked unhappy and quickly retracted her impulse to rush forward to support her daughter.

Even the ladies and gentlemen around who still felt that Wang Ling'er was somewhat pitiful couldn't help but frown and shake their heads helplessly after hearing these words.

At this moment, everyone's sympathy for Wang Linger suddenly disappeared.

In the capital, there are many people gossiping about the Ninth Prince's wife and the Regent's wife.

Even they, when bored occasionally, would chat about the two most famous marriages in the capital, which is nothing wrong.

but--

What Wang Linger said was so bold, vicious and mean, no one dared to protect her!

Princess Mingzhu also frowned, but still said, "Miss Wang was indeed rude, but Aunt Royal, you have so many ways to deal with it, but beating her into a pig's head is too embarrassing, isn't it?"

Embarrassing?

Lin Xilan really wanted to say something fishy.

She wondered what was wrong with Princess Mingzhu's head?

Even at this time, she still dares to protect Wang Linger. She is simply courting death!

"Princess Mingzhu, please say one more thing. Are you sure you want to protect this young lady from the Wang family, even if she says something suspicious about Your Majesty?"

"Of course!"

Wait, what did Lin Xilan say?

Princess Mingzhu looked at Lin Xilan in confusion and frowned, "When did the young lady of Wang Hanlin's family become suspicious of His Majesty! You are talking nonsense. Didn't she just say a few words about the affair between you and the Ninth Prince's wife?"

Romantic affairs?

Lin Xilan sneered.

Repeating some of the things Wang Linger had said before in person -

"Wang Ling'er said, even if the Ninth Prince has a fortune, what can it do? It's only a matter of time before he dies! Yun Susu will still be a widow for the rest of her life. What's worse is that if His Majesty ever thinks of the Ninth Prince's mansion as a money bag, the imperial edict will be issued and all the money will be put into the national treasury. What will she have left then? She will just be a poor person with no money, no husband, and no children."

idiot!

This sentence is the key point!

With every word Lin Xilan spoke, Princess Mingzhu's face turned paler.

Lin Xilan sneered, "The Ninth Prince hasn't even died yet, but she's already started cursing his death. She deserves death. She even speculated that Your Majesty was someone who used his son's property to fill the national treasury. Tell me, does this count as being suspicious of Your Majesty, huh?"

"This princess has a kind heart, so I spared her life and asked the maid to slap her a few times to teach her a lesson. Who would have thought that Princess Mingzhu would jump out in a hurry?"

"Why, the princess also has a problem with the Ninth Prince being alive? Has a problem with His Majesty?"

These harsh words made Princess Mingzhu unable to recover for a while.

Even though she thought she was good at calculating and could keep her composure, she couldn't help but be dumbfounded at this moment, and looked down at Wang Linger with resentment.

Wang Linger went too far!

She can’t be implicated!!!

Princess Mingzhu winked at the maid beside her.

Fu Liu understood clearly.

His expression immediately changed, and he slapped Wang Linger's face fiercely, "Miss Wang, you said such treasonous words, and you even had the nerve to ask our princess to give you justice. Our princess is kind, so she was deceived by your few words, thinking that what you said were just some romantic rumors in the capital, and she wanted to plead for you. Unexpectedly, you are so bold and dare to guess the emperor's mind. How abominable! Not only did you do something wrong, but you also dared to deceive the princess. This is a lesson from the princess!"

The fierce slaps came one after another, with such force that everyone seemed to hear the sound of the air being torn apart.

Wang Linger's cheeks were already red and swollen, and after being hit again, they began to twitch. The burning pain spread throughout her body like an electric current, making her feel worse than death.

however.

Although her heart was filled with anger and humiliation, she did not dare to make any move of resistance.

"I didn't, no... Your Highness... I..."
