Chapter 100

Eleven didn't do anything to Taifu's crows, but caught them in another yard.However, these crows still lost a few feathers, and the Taifu dropped the golden beans in distress after seeing it.

He had a bad premonition that if he stayed in the Prince Regent's Mansion for a few more days, his babies might end up with the two hairless pigeons in his arms.

On the second day when he went to court, the Taifu cried out what happened in the palace yesterday, and Shen Mengqi failed to complete the task of interrogating and copying the law.

The emperor was furious, not only punished Shen Mengqi to kneel down, but this time also invited a dragon whip to beat Shen Mengqi.This dragon whip was originally used to punish the emperor, but no one thought that it would be used on Shen Mengqi.

Looking at the dragon whip made of gold and jade, everyone couldn't help shivering. This sudden beating was no less severe than the punishment of the staff. Shen Mengqi is a girl no matter what, how could she I can stand it.

Lin Jihan immediately quit, "Your Majesty, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, she is too delicate and weak to bear such a severe punishment. I implore the Emperor to show mercy and let my servant suffer for her!"

The Taifu was also stunned by the emperor's battle. How could he remember that he was complaining just now, so he hurriedly followed Lin Jihan and said, "Your Majesty, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials is still young, but he can't stand this battle. Please think twice."

Seeing that both of them had spoken, all the courtiers immediately bowed down and saluted, "Please think twice, Your Majesty."

The emperor looked at the kneeling courtiers through the crown and said: "I have made a mistake, now I don't even have the right to punish her?"

He looked over the crowd, looked at Shen Mengqi who was kneeling on the ground well-behaved, and said: "Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials, do you think I should punish you?"

Shen Mengqi lowered her eyebrows and said, "Jade can't be made into a tool if it's not cut, it's my minister who made a mistake and should be punished."

Looking at Shen Mengqi, who looked like she was at her disposal, the emperor's mood eased a little.

"Actually, I don't want to punish you either. Leaving aside the level of Minister of the Ministry of Officials, you are still the first princess of Tianyuan Kingdom, my niece, you represent the royal family, but you make mistakes repeatedly. Today I tolerate your small mistakes, tomorrow You are about to cause a catastrophe."

"I understand, I accept the punishment."

Lin Jihan frowned, he got up and looked at the emperor and said, "Your Majesty."

Before he finished speaking, the emperor directly interrupted his speech, "I know that your husband and wife are deeply in love, but the Minister of the Ministry of Officials himself said that if jade is not polished, she will accept the punishment, so there is no need for you to ask for it." Let's go with her."

Mu Qiancheng also took half a step slightly to persuade Lin Jihan's ear: "Today, the emperor is determined to punish His Royal Highness, if you ask for mercy, you can only bear the responsibility together. When the time comes, the two of you They were beaten so hard that they couldn't get up, who is going to take Her Highness back home?"

"Do you want a man other than you to hug Her Royal Highness?"

Before Mu Qiancheng's words fell to the ground, Lin Jihan's cold eyes swept towards him, making him tremble with fright, and he couldn't help but move back in small steps, "What I said is the truth."

Lin Jihan's hands tightened again and again, he looked back at Shen Mengqi who had a determined and stubborn face, and finally walked slowly into the queue of courtiers.

It wasn't that he was afraid of imperial power, but that he saw pleading in Shen Mengqi's eyes, she was begging him not to plead for her.She wanted to bear the emperor's wrath all by herself.

He could disregard anyone's feelings, but he couldn't disregard Shen Mengqi's.Even if he doesn't want to, he can't bear it, he still has to respect her thoughts.

Seeing Lin Jihan who walked back to the courtiers and bowed his head in silence, no longer caring about the matter, the emperor's lips curled up slightly, "Wang Peng, go and execute the punishment, and you will be punished ten times with the rod. .”

Wang Peng's face was slightly pale, he took the Dragon Subduing Whip tremblingly and said, "Yes."

Walking in front of Shen Mengqi, looking at Shen Mengqi who he had watched grow up, he said: "Your Highness, I have offended you."

Shen Mengqi clenched her fists by her side, and she smiled brightly at Wang Peng, the chief eunuch, "My lord, let's execute the sentence."

The Dragon Subduing Whip hit Shen Mengqi's body firmly and forcefully, and everyone in the hall could hear the crisp echoing sound clearly.Blood continued to overflow from Shen Mengqi's back, dyeing her red official robe dark brown.

Even so, Shen Mengqi bit her lips but remained silent, kneeling as straight as a pen, without any intention of bending.When everyone saw it, they couldn't help clicking their tongues. Her Royal Highness's bones are really hard.

The emperor's intentions are already obvious, as long as Shen Mengqi subdues, this matter will be over.

Who would have thought that Shen Mengqi admits to the punishment, realizes her mistake, but just refuses to accept softness.

After ten blows, Wang Peng's eyes were red, and his face was covered with water. He didn't know whether it was sweat or tears. Those who didn't know thought it was him who was tortured.

Seeing the scarlet blood stains on the dragon-subduing whip, Wang Peng burst into tears, "His Royal Highness."

Shen Mengqi turned her head with a pale face, she smiled lightly at Wang Peng, "Director Wang, don't blame yourself, this princess doesn't hurt."

The sound of no pain almost broke Wang Peng's heart, and the emperor sitting on the dragon chair almost crushed the back of his own chair.

He said in a low voice: "You really don't feel any pain at all, don't you complain?"

"I don't feel sorry for the emperor's words. This is what I deserve. I don't complain."

Looking at the stubborn Shen Mengqi, the emperor said angrily, "That's all for today."

Without waiting for Wang Peng to announce his resignation, he left alone. The courtiers hurriedly knelt down and saluted: "Respectfully send off the emperor."

After the emperor left, all the courtiers got up, but Shen Mengqi didn't even stand up from the ground, she just knelt so straight.

Just when they thought she was fighting with the emperor, Lin Jihan walked up to her.

Shen Mengqi looked at Lin Jihan struggling to show a smile, she stretched out her hands to Lin Jihan and said: "This time I really can't walk by myself."

Lin Jihan felt a dull pain in his heart. He bent down and wanted to hug Shen Mengqi, but found that her entire back was already dripping with blood. In order not to let himself touch her wound and cause secondary damage, Lin Jihan turned around and half knelt in front of Shen Mengqi. down.

While carrying Shen Mengqi on his back, he murmured complainingly: "You're just being stupid."

After Shen Mengqi lay on Lin Jihan's back, she couldn't bear it anymore, and she passed out.Lin Jihan's heart was half beat, and he hurriedly ran towards his palace with Shen Mengqi on his back.

Before he ordered to pass on the imperial physician, all the imperial physicians in the imperial hospital had already followed behind him, relying on this battle.Needless to say, he also knew who wrote it.

What is this?A slap in the face, a sweet date?
Wang Taiyi, the leader of the imperial hospital, said: "My lord, the princess's injury should not be treated outside. We will go back to the palace with you to heal Her Highness the princess."
