The ugliest queen ever

Chapter 45 Chapter 46
Guoguo watched the cell door open and came walking with difficulty. She seemed to see endless hope on her beloved face, but she staggered and fell to the ground just after taking a few steps.
Su Xueqing hurriedly stepped forward to help, Guoguo stood up, raised her pale and colorless face, and her agile eyes were instantly crystal clear.
"Your Majesty... Guoguo didn't say... Guoguo didn't say anything..."
Looking at Guoguo's extremely persistent eyes, Su Xueqing gritted her teeth and nodded fiercely: "I know you didn't tell." If she had said, she wouldn't have been abused like this.The whole body is covered in blood, from head to toe is bruised, this is nothing.A delicate little girl has only been here for less than two hours, and she has been tortured to the point of being neither human nor ghost.How could she swallow the anger that followed?
"Come here, call the imperial doctor!"
Su Xueqing yelled at the prisons on both sides, and the people on both sides immediately agreed in panic, and then left quickly.
"Young lady... Guoguo really thought I would never see you again!" Thinking of the inhuman punishment just now, Guoguo fainted from the pain several times.In order not to suffer from flesh and blood, she almost wanted to bite her tongue and kill herself.But when she thought of her mother, she still endured it.Because, she knew that the empress would not leave her alone, and she knew that the empress would give her justice.
Su Xueqing looked at Guoguo, who was as fragile as a porcelain doll in front of her. Mottled blood smeared on her delicate face, solidifying into scars like centipedes, and the half-exposed blood-white arms were all the result of whipping. the tragedy.
"No, Guoguo, if someone dares to treat you like this, I will let her pay you back."
She gathered up the loose strands of hair from her forehead, gently pinched her behind Guoguo's ear, and then told Qing'er beside her, "Look and help her first, I'll take care of something first."
Qing'er responded with a startled voice, and then took Guoguo from Su Xueqing's hand, tears filled her eyes, and her heart ached.
Su Xueqing raised her head, with a flash of arrogance and coldness in her eyes, she walked towards the outside of the Xuanbing Prison with cold steps.
At this time, Dai Qilian was standing outside the door, supported by two maids in the palace, propping his head with one hand and shouting faintly, while resting his hand on them and screaming.That look of dying, as if the end of the world is coming.
As soon as Su Xueqing's footsteps arrived, the palace moths supporting her took a step back in fright.Unexpectedly for a while, she almost had an intimate contact with the earth.
"I'm going to die, you guys, dare... dare..." Dai Qilian, who was about to roar, looked up and saw Su Xueqing with a fierce face, using her fat body to look down at herself coldly.
Dai Qilian looked at her with a guilty conscience, knowing that this girl is going crazy today and can do anything.On the spot, the tip of her tongue trembled and said: "Emperor...Empress, what else do you want to do? The person is not dead, you are inside, just take it away. I can pretend that nothing happened today, and I will never report to the emperor."
There was no expression on Su Xueqing's stiff face, she just stared fixedly at the pale and delicate face that had already faded and showed no remorse.After a while, she snorted coldly, and said mercilessly: "Do you think this can be done? As the concubine of Xidan Kingdom, you disobeyed the laws of the country, disregarded the laws of the country, imprisoned maidservants innocently, and used lynching secretly." , forcing good people into prostitution, beating them into tricks, do you only want to deal with me, the empress of a country?"
"What, what are you talking about. Empress, don't wrong a good person. I'm just teaching this unruly little girl a lesson for you. What are you forcing her into prostitution, beating her into a trick, saying that I have dealt with your empress, isn't this intentional? ?”
"Compared to the laws and regulations in the palace, you are more clear than me, and naturally you are more cunning. However, no matter what the result is now, you will not be able to escape this bad luck."
"What do you want to do?" After listening to her resolute words, Dai Qilian's thin face retreated in horror as if seeing a ghost.
She thought that Su Xueqing was going to do something to her again, but Su Xueqing stood there motionless like a rock, and finally, the corner of her mouth slightly raised: "Come on, put this vicious woman in prison, use all kinds Let her pay for the criminal law, the feeling of being trampled on like ants."
Su Xueqing's voice was loud enough for all the guards on duty in Xuanbing Prison to hear, but after the words fell, no one dared to step forward and execute the torture.
Although the queen's words, in the harem except the emperor, no one can compare.But right now, the woman who is going to be punished is not an ordinary person.She herself was originally the emperor's favorite concubine, her younger sister is the current emperor's beloved concubine, and her father is also a powerful Shangshu lord.
On both sides, no matter who it is, they dare not offend.
Looking at the jailer who has been slow to make a move, they are all gearing up, biting their lips, looking like they are having a hard time making a decision.Su Xueqing didn't want to embarrass them at first, but in a blink of an eye, she saw Dai Qilian's proud and arrogant attitude, so she immediately took out the phoenix card at her waist and said coldly: "I order you as the queen, Arrest this sinful girl and torture her severely. Whoever dares to disobey the order, I can make him lose his head immediately. If you touch this woman, if you are worried about the consequences, you can put it all on me. I will If you don't believe me, after I am a country, plus my Su family's status, I can't do anything to you."
As soon as the words were finished, the jailers who were hesitant and panicked could only bite the bullet and step forward at this moment.
Five or six rough and crazy men fought Dai Qilian lightly, and they captured her like an eagle carrying a chicken.
"Let go...you guys are so courageous, even dare to move me, let me go..."
Dai Qilian struggled back and forth, her voice was as sharp as a soul-struggling ghost.The jailers who caught him were all sweating coldly, and they didn't want to catch him right now, and it didn't matter if they didn't catch him.
"If you don't want to lose your head, take it away!"
"It's the empress!"
In the end, the jailers, who had no way out, had no choice but to grit their teeth and arrest Dai Qilian.
"You dog slaves are getting impatient?"
"Su Xueqing, let go, you dare to touch me, you will not end well..."
Su Xueqing looked at her appearance of not regretting death, stepped forward in disgust and said: "So much nonsense." Then, he took out a silk scarf from his bosom and stuffed it into her mouth.The contempt and arrogance on his face made cold sweat break out in the eyes of those maids and jailers.
It seems that the grievances between the Su family and the Dai family are about to be staged again.
"Uh...uh..." Dai Qilian, who had something stuffed in her mouth, wanted to cry out and couldn't move, so she could only let others support her and drag her towards the Xuanbing Prison.
Just when everyone thought that the matter was a foregone conclusion, a sharp eunuch's voice in the distance almost broke everyone's eardrums.
"The Emperor is here."
After saying a word, everyone knelt down and kowtowed immediately.
"Slaves (servants) and concubines, see the emperor..."
A bright yellow figure broke into everyone's sight so shockingly. The visitor was wearing a dragon-patterned uniform and a golden crown on his head. He had an imposing face and walked over heroically.
Following her was the noble concubine Dai Qifu and the German concubine Fang Leyao. The three of them were shocked to varying degrees when they saw this scene.
However, Dai Qilian, who was being escorted, seemed to see a savior, her eyes were bright and tearful, and she rushed towards this side desperately.
Su Xueqing stared coldly, and the jailers who originally planned to release her did not dare to move at this moment.
"Hmm... um..." Dai Qilian shook her head weakly, and her beautiful eyes kept sending distress messages to her hair.
Seeing the cloth stuffed in Dai Qilian's mouth, the red and swollen wound on his forehead, and being held in the hands of those big men mercilessly, the emperor Sikongjue's eyes suddenly flashed with an elite light.And Dai Qifu watched her sister being tortured like this, the anger in her water eyes expanded, and she finally gritted her teeth and looked at the emperor.
Among the three, Fang Leyao was the only one who was faintly worried about her.Treating Concubine Lian like this, how would the Emperor treat her?
"Empress, what are you doing?" Sikong Jue had just left early in the morning when he received a report from a servant girl in Shulan Pavilion, saying that Concubine Lian was kidnapped by the empress.So, before he had time to enjoy breakfast, he hurried over and met Fu'er and Concubine De respectively on the way.
"What can I do, what the emperor sees is what I want to do." Su Xueqing glanced coldly, the cold light in his eyes made everyone present gasp.Yes, it is really rare to dare to be so disrespectful to the emperor openly.
Besides, she, Su Xueqing, knew this man's purpose from the moment he stepped in here.Rather than euphemistically explaining, it is better to kill the fish and break the net.
"You..." Sikong Jue didn't expect that this woman would be so disdainful and lawless towards him. Could it be that in her eyes, there is no such emperor?
"Your majesty, there is no need to say. This woman must have hatred for what happened to my sister yesterday, so she took the opportunity to retaliate. You see, she wants to imprison my sister in the Xuanbing Prison. The emperor knows that who can enter That kind of place is simply not a place for people to go.”
Listening to Dai Qilianjiao Didi's lawsuit, Sikong Jue raised his eyebrows: "Queen, is this really the case?"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is not that kind of person. There must be a misunderstanding." Fang Leyao saw that Dai Qifu interceded for her sister indiscriminately, so she also hurriedly spoke to Sikong Jue, her eyes deliberately avoiding Dai Qifu's anger blue face.
"What the hell happened?"
Sikong Jue's patience seemed to be worn out, he shouted angrily.
Su Xueqing ignored Long Yan's fury, but asked softly, "Your Majesty, I want to ask you, in front of all the court ladies and concubines, can you serve a bowl of water?"
Sikong Jue waved his sleeves and sneered: "Of course, I am the king of a country, let alone you, even the prince who breaks the law is also guilty of the common people!"
"Well, my concubine, I would like to ask the emperor, what does the emperor think about the fact that Concubine Lian mistakenly accused me of violating palace discipline and leaving the palace privately yesterday?"
Facing her confused question, Sikong Jue stared at her for no reason and said, "Didn't the incident yesterday have been confirmed by Concubine De? ?"
"Yes, the emperor thinks so, so what if some people deliberately frame Za Zang?"
Sikong Jue's black pupils shrank, and he was puzzled for a moment: "What did you say?"
"Your Majesty, if the concubine of the harem imprisoned the innocent maidservant privately, put her in jail, tortured her severely, and even wanted to ignore human life. Tell me, does this count as a felony?"
"A concubine in the harem doing such a thing is the great crime of the chicken Sichen."
After hearing this, Su Xueqing had a sarcastic smile in his eyes: "That's good, the concubine has done nothing wrong."
"Empress, what exactly do you want to say?" Sikong Jue was a little annoyed when she heard her riddles and tricks, but it was inconvenient for her to have an outburst due to the presence of everyone.For a while, you can only endure it patiently.
"Uh...uh..."
At this time, Dai Qilian, who was being held in the sidelines, couldn't speak, and could only stare dryly and shed tears. In Sikong Jue's eyes, there was a burst of pity.
Immediately, she took a step forward and said loudly, "Let her go."
After obeying the order, the jailer quickly let go, and then pulled out the cloth strip from his mouth.
"Your majesty, the concubine is wronged... The empress really left the palace yesterday, and she deceived you with the concubine De..."
Once untied, Dai Qilian quickly knelt on the ground and hugged Sikongjue's leg, crying and making noises to win sympathy.
After hearing this, Concubine De at the side took a step back in an instant, her face slightly troubled.
"Concubine Ai, let's talk when we have something to say!"
Sikong Jue slowly helped her up, then looked at Su Xueqing with a pair of unfathomable eyes.
"Hmph, your majesty said that what happened yesterday was a lie and it's over. Therefore, even if I was wrongly pointed out by Concubine Lian, I understand the righteousness and don't care about it. However, she repaid her revenge with virtue and arrested my personal maid today. , Shut Yixuan in the Ice Prison for torture, if concubines and concubines arrive early, I am afraid that their souls will return to the underworld."
After finishing speaking, Su Xueqing coldly glanced at the group of people around Sikong Jue, the hatred in her eyes was burning vigorously like a cluster of flames.
Sikong Jue was slightly shocked, and turned his head to look at Dai Qilian in astonishment: "Is this really the case?"
Dai Qilian pretended to be weak and helpless and said: "Your Majesty, this concubine is just punishing the little girl who lied, and she has no malicious intentions."
"what?"
"Your Majesty, I beg you to uphold justice for our sisters. My sister just wanted to know the truth, so she used a small criminal law against a court lady. Look at the queen, she hurt my sister like this for a lowly court lady. , and even humiliated her in public. This... this... this is going to spread, how can my sister gain a foothold in the harem?"
Seeing that the situation is not good, Dai Qifu also remembers with bitterness, weeping uncontrollably, and pleads with the emperor for Dai Qilian.
"Hmph, you sisters can really say it, what is a small criminal law? Is it called a small criminal law when you are tortured until you have only one breath left? Besides, the imperial concubine said just now that the Xuanbing Prison is a place for people to stay? Besides , although she is a small maidservant, she is still dead. The emperor has said that the prince broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people. And you, what are you?"
"You..." Being disturbed by Su Xueqing like this, the two were so angry that they had nothing to say.
"Concubine Lian, is there really such a thing?" Sikong Jue looked at her in disbelief. After all, in his heart, although Dai Qilian was not as gentle and intelligent as his younger sister Dai Qifu, he was also soft and clingy.Right now, knowing that she had done such a thing that violated the laws and regulations of the palace, her face suddenly turned green.
"I..." Dai Qilian was too frightened by Sikong Jue's gloomy expression to speak.
But the younger sister took a step forward, her eyes sharp: "My elder sister is right, she just wanted to further testify that the queen left the palace yesterday, that's all!"
"Really? If you have evidence, I have nothing to say even if my head falls to the ground. However, you have no evidence at all to prove that I have been out of the palace, but you arrested the people around me behind my back, threatened and lured you, and tortured me." If it wasn't for Guoguo's faithful service to the Lord, and she and I have never done this before, and if someone else were to be replaced, wouldn't I be forced to bear this crime?"
"Did Guoguo say anything?" Sikong Jue turned his head to look at Dai Qilian. In fact, he had little doubt about what happened yesterday.It's just that for the sake of Concubine De, he didn't want to study it carefully.
"She..." Being asked by Sikong Jue, Dai Qilian choked again.
"Your Majesty is wronged..."
A feeble and ethereal voice that seemed to contain great pain immediately attracted all the attention.
Inside the Xuanbing Prison, a palace maid in Tsing Yi walked out with the arms of Guo Guo, who was wearing a prison uniform, covered in scars and bloodstained all over her body.
From that pale face, and those dark eyes, it can be seen that she seems to be greatly tortured.
Her appearance at the moment is like a sapling that is broken in the wind, as if it will break when the wind blows.
"Guoguo?"
Su Xueqing called out with some heartache.
Seeing that a little court lady, after being tortured so much, was able to defend and answer Su Xueqing so firmly, Sikong Jue sighed at the ruthlessness of Concubine Lian's attack, but at the same time had to look at Su Xueqing with admiration.
When did that vicious and ugly woman who was hated and feared by everyone have such a loyal servant girl?And she, for the sake of a little maid, would not hesitate to offend the people around her.Moreover, the offending this time was different from her viciousness and scheming in the past, this time it seemed to be a kind of open and aboveboard attitude to contend with them.
"Concubine Lian, what else do you have to say?" This time, Sikong Jue, who had no intention of favoritism at all, slightly closed his black pupils, and a look of tiredness flashed in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, the concubine was wronged. The queen really left the palace yesterday. She told the concubine today that she didn't even know where Xian De lived. How could she be with Concubine De yesterday?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, my sister must have her reasons for doing this, you must find out the truth."
"Don't you think that the emperor is a fatuous king, he can't tell the truth, and you two sisters are going to judge him?"
After Su Xueqing said a word, the two of them knelt down together in fright: "I don't dare... Your Majesty will clearly check."
As if seeing Su Xueqing's determination, Sikong Jue raised his thin lips lightly, revealing a graceful arc and said: "Queen, what is your plan now?"
This was the first time that Sikong Jue spoke to her so calmly.The implication was to tell Su Xueqing that she would give him some face and spare the sisters of the Dai family.
Su Xueqing directly ignored his indifferent tone, and said coldly: "You are the Ninth Five-Year Supreme, you are the king of Xidan, you know the harem law better than me."
Sikong Jue stared at those black pupils, and found that they were as bright as a star, and those eyes seemed to be soaked in countless wisdom and bravery, which made people sink a little: "Well, since it is the first time for Concubine Lian to commit a crime, and she is ignorant For the sake of it, I can now have someone punish her twenty battles, and reduce her salary for one year, and at the same time confine her to Shulan Pavilion for one month."
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty is merciful, I have been wronged..." Dai Qilian heard this and cried out for redress.
Dai Qifu pouted and said with dissatisfaction: "Yes, Your Majesty, my sister has been injured by the Queen, and it's really unfair to punish her so severely."
Seeing this chaotic scene, Su Xueqing was already very upset, so she raised her hand and broke a branch beside her, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, such a criminal law is too partial? Although I am not familiar with the laws of the palace, but according to what I told you , what she did just now is a felony. Could it be that such a small trick can help her get away with it?"
"Then according to the Queen's opinion..." Yes, for Dai Qilian these punishments, Sikong Jue did have partiality.After all, there is a huge difference between a concubine and a maid.Even if she killed someone, as long as no one knew about it, the emperor could still turn a blind eye.This has always been the case with maids who died unjustly in the harem. If they accidentally offend someone, they will be wiped out.
Therefore, it's not that she, Sikong Jue, is stupid, but that this matter can be turned into a small one.As long as no one is killed, the interests of the country are not endangered, the prestige of the country is not harmed, and the emperor's dignity is not insulted, it will not have much influence.
"At least, the emperor said that the prince who breaks the law is the same as the common people. Concubine Lian treats her innocently, so don't talk about doubling, just talk about fairness. Your majesty, should you also let her enter the Xuanbing Prison for two hours? Then impose the same criminal law on Guoguo. In this way, the concubine thinks that he can serve the public."
"what……"
Dai Qilian and Dai Qifu took a breath at the same time, and shot towards her with eyes full of anger and disbelief.
