Chapter 183: Drive Out of the Capital
Chapter 183: Drive Out of the Capital
Eunuch Li followed behind the empress and didn't understand what she meant by "how disgraceful" but when he stepped in and saw the absurd scene in front of him, he understood it instantly.
"This, this, this..." Eunuch Li covered his eyes and spoke incoherently, "What kind of appearance is this? It's broad daylight, how can you not wear clothes?"
He felt that his eyes were extremely polluted. These people were not just one or two, but except for the Fourth Princess and the palace maid beside her, all the others were naked.
The Queen suppressed her anger and asked, "What on earth is going on? Fourth Brother, why are they all naked?"
The fourth princess quickly explained, "These people made mistakes, and I am punishing them."
The others lowered their heads, wishing they could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.
"Put on your clothes first."
The veins on the queen's forehead were throbbing, and there was silence all around. After a while, when those people had put on their clothes, they knelt down in front of the queen with a thud.
"His Majesty……"
The Queen sneered, looked at the Fourth Princess, and asked, "If they made a mistake, they could just be beaten. Why do you let them be like this?"
The palace maids nodded in their hearts. They would rather just make a mistake and get beaten up and let it go.
But the Fourth Princess particularly liked to humiliate them, and beating and scolding them was commonplace.
The Fourth Princess quickly made excuses for herself, "Mother, it's... it's because they're so stubborn. Yes, that's it. They refuse to repent, so I'm punishing them like this."
"Enough, I don't want to hear this!" the Queen scolded her.
The Four Princesses closed their mouths in dismay and lowered their heads.
The queen was blinded by anger for a moment, but she did not forget the purpose of her visit.
"By the way, Fourth Brother, I came here to ask you something."
"What's the matter?" The fourth princess quickly raised her head.
"What happened at the tournament really has nothing to do with you?"
The fourth princess' heart skipped a beat. She didn't understand why her mother asked her about this again today, hadn't she asked her about this before?
She quickly replied, "Mother, I swear this matter has nothing to do with me. Is there anything else besides this that brought you here today?"
The Queen didn't say anything else, but her eyes that saw through everything stared at the Fourth Princess, making the Fourth Princess feel uneasy.
"Mother Queen, do you not trust me?"
The fourth princess pinched herself and looked at the queen with a pitiful look.
But the Queen just sneered in her heart and said, "I already know."
"I know. What does the Queen Mother know?"
"Of course it's because you bribed the people at the martial arts tournament to attack Gu Qingyuan."
After saying that, the queen no longer showed her mercy and had her tied up.
"Queen Mother? This matter has nothing to do with me! Was it Gu Qingyuan who framed me? Queen Mother, I am innocent!" The Fourth Princess howled and pushed all the responsibility onto Gu Qingyuan.
"Framed? I gave you some face earlier and didn't pursue the matter. Now that you refuse to repent, don't blame me for being ruthless."
There was a cold look in the Queen's eyes.
The Gu family's contributions are greater than anything else. If she cannot give an explanation to the Gu family in time, it will only disappoint General Gu and the people.
Also, the Queen didn't want to get involved in the fight between the fourth and third sisters when they were planning to attack General Gu on the battlefield.
But their hands reached out to the Gu family. If General Gu had not risked his life to fight his way out, there would be no Great Ning Kingdom today.
The fourth princess was beaten to death, but she still insisted on being stubborn.
"Mother Queen, this matter really has nothing to do with me... uh..."
One stick after another fell on her body, and her body was already covered in blood.
Then, the queen looked at the palace maid with a sharp gaze, and the palace maid couldn't help but take a step back.
"You and Old Four were involved in this matter together, right?"
The palace maid shook her head, not daring to admit it.
But the Queen already knew the truth and came here to deal with them.
After beating the Fourth Princess, the Queen said coldly, "From today on, the Fourth Princess is forbidden to set foot in the capital for the rest of her life. Mo City is your final resting place."
Mo City, it is a desolate place.
After hearing this, the fourth princess' eyes went dark and she fainted.
……
The cuckoo flew back to Qingyuan, bringing with it what he had seen and heard in the palace.
It kept barking, so Gu Qingyuan brought Zhaomei and Panmei over and asked them to translate.
Zhao Mei said to Gu Qingyuan word by word: "It said that the Fourth Princess will be expelled from the capital."
"what?"
Gu Qingyuan was very surprised to hear the news.
"Besides, the Queen beat up the Fourth Princess today, saying that she bribed the people in the tournament to attack you."
Thinking of the collapsed platform, the fallen flag, and the runaway horse...
Oh, it really is her.
Gu Qingyuan waved his hand, and the cuckoo flew away again.
Leaving behind her, Zhaomei and Panmei.
"You guys should go back too."
Zhaomei and Panmei looked at each other, shook their heads, walked to the left and right sides of Gu Qingyuan, and pulled her arms.
"Young Master Sister, we still want to continue practicing martial arts with you."
"Yes, yes, we have been protecting everyone well during this period."
Gu Qingyuan smiled and said to them, "Okay, I'll teach you another day."
The two people walked out happily.
After the two of them went out, Gu Qingyuan found Ye Wu.
When Ye Wu saw Gu Qingyuan appear, a hint of joy appeared on his face. He looked up and asked her, "Why are you here?"
"Of course I came to see you."
Ye Wu pulled out a stool for her to sit down and was about to pour her some water, but Gu Qingyuan held him back and said, "You sit down too."
It was obvious that she had come to see him for something, so Ye Wu sat down next to her and asked, "What happened?"
"As expected of Xiaowu, you are so smart." Gu Qingyuan responded with a smile.
Ye Wu, who was praised by her, showed an embarrassed look and pursed his lips and said, "Do you need my help?"
Gu Qingyuan nodded and told her his plan.
"I plan to buy a house and use it to recruit some people, and you will be responsible for managing them."
She suddenly thought of the martial arts competition and Ji Mingzhao's dream, as well as Zhaomei and Panmei, who could communicate with animals and attract them.
There must be some people in this world with other special abilities. It would be great if she could find them.
And Sister Ye...
She didn't seem like the type to stay in one place, and they came here to have fun.
But before they leave, perhaps he could ask her some questions about medicine.
Ye Wu nodded and said solemnly: "Don't worry, I will definitely not let you down."
She saved him from the Ye family, so no matter what she asked him to do, he would do it.
