Chapter 274 Ending
"Humph, because she is a spy sent by the State of Chu! I have known this for a long time, but I have only spared her life because she has not made any unusual moves."
"no, I can not!"
Princess Huayang shook her head in disbelief. In her mind, her mother had always been gentle, kind, and beautiful. How could she be a spy?
"Whether you believe it or not, this is the truth. Over the years, I have tolerated your various behaviors for a long time. Now, for the sake of our relationship as father and daughter, I will spare your life, but from now on, your life or death is up to you, and it has nothing to do with me anymore."
Hearing this, Princess Huayang was so frightened that her face turned pale. She quickly knelt down and begged for mercy, "Father, I know I was wrong. It was I who was too greedy. I hope you will have mercy on me and give me a chance to reform." For Huayang at this moment, if she really lost everything, it would be more painful than death.
"Haven't I given you enough chances? Don't you know? Then what's your fault?"
"Father, I am your biological child. You are so kind to an outsider. It's ok that you favor her in everything. Now you want to attack me because of her?"
"You still firmly believe that you were framed by others!"
The First Emperor looked at Huayang's stubborn appearance, and could not help but feel angry and disappointed. He originally thought that after so many things, Huayang would be able to wake up, but now it seems that she is still deeply trapped in self-deception and cannot extricate herself.
Huayang was trembling all over, tears blurred her vision, and she sobbed.
"It's her! Ever since she showed up, everyone's eyes have been on her. Why? She only knows some tricks, how can she be so biased? She is so arrogant that she doesn't even take me seriously. How can a person with unknown origins be so bewitching to you all? Is she better at serving you..."
The First Emperor was furious, his face was ashen, veins popped out on his forehead, he could no longer tolerate Huayang's nonsense and ignorance. He suddenly raised his palm, with a sharp sound of wind, and mercilessly slapped the woman.
"Pa!" The crisp and loud sound of slapping echoed in the hall. Huayang was stunned and silent.
"Qile! Drag her out here immediately and slap her thirty times!" The First Emperor roared, his voice was deafening and seemed to penetrate the entire palace.
Huayang was beaten to the ground, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of her mouth, but she still raised her head stubbornly, staring at the First Emperor and muttering to herself.
"Father, you beat me for an outsider. I am your child. She is nothing. He is a bitch..."
Seeing this, Qi Le, who was standing by, secretly thought that something was wrong and hurriedly stepped forward to cover her mouth, fearing that she would say something more outrageous and anger the emperor. Then, he dragged the woman hard and walked out of the palace.
"Princess, I'm sorry." Qi Le whispered while dragging her.
However, the woman did not appreciate it. She struggled desperately, trying to break free from Qi Le's restraints. At this moment, Qi Le loosened his grip a little and prepared to adjust his position. Unexpectedly, the woman took the opportunity to open her mouth and curse: "Bah! She is a bitch, and you are all obsessed with her..."
Hearing this, Qi Le frowned, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes. Without hesitation, he reached out his hand again and slapped the woman's mouth hard, again and again, making her cheeks red and swollen.
"You damn eunuch, how dare you hit me! This princess must kill you!" The woman screamed, her voice sharp and piercing.
But Qi Le didn't care about much at the moment. He just wanted to shut up this mouth full of foul language and ignorance. After all, in this palace, offending the emperor was a serious crime. If he didn't stop it, he might be implicated.
"Princess, I am following orders. Do you want to disobey?"
This is simply a crazy woman. He quickly put a big hat on her. Seeing that she stopped moving, Qi Le took action.
Qi Le didn't hold back at all this time. Hua Yang's cheek was soon swollen, blood oozed from the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were full of anger.
After thirty slaps in the face, Qi Le finally entered the palace to report to the First Emperor.
"Your Majesty, the thirty slaps have been carried out." Qi Le said respectfully.
The First Emperor nodded slightly to show that he understood. Then, he calmly gave the order: "Then proceed according to my previous order."
"Yes!" Qi Le received the order and withdrew.
Meanwhile, in another mansion, Qin Xingfu was concentrating on making a printer at home. After all, copying text by hand was too tedious and laborious in the past, and a printer could easily solve this problem. Just as he was busy and focused, Ying Bu came in excitedly, with a smile on his face as bright as a flower blooming in spring, with no intention of stopping.
"My lord, I have great news to tell you!" Ying Bu was so excited that his voice rose eight octaves.
Hearing the sound, Qin Xingfu looked up, and seeing Ying Bu like this, he couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. So he asked, "What on earth can make you so happy? Did you pick up a lot of money on the road?"
Upon hearing this, Ying Bu sneered and said, "Hmph, it's just money, how can it be worthy of my attention?" As he spoke, he walked to the table, supported himself with both hands, leaned forward, and put his face in front of Qin Xingfu, his face full of irrepressible curiosity.
"My Lord, what did you say to the Emperor yesterday? Today, Princess Huayang entered the palace and was slapped thirty times. She was also stripped of her princess title and fiefdom, her property was confiscated, and she was sent to the northern border."
Ying Bu felt very happy. On weekdays, Princess Pingyang relied on her status and did not return to her fiefdom. She did disgusting things in Xianyang every day, bullying people in the market, letting slaves commit crimes, and she wanted to plot against their family from time to time, but she never succeeded. It seemed that the matter between Wang and Meng's families had finally come to an end.
"Ah? I didn't say anything. I just don't understand. I didn't provoke her, did I? Why does she always pick on me?"
Qin Xingfu really didn't understand. Among so many princes and princesses, some were afraid of her and dared not provoke her, some were willing to be on good terms with her, and some kept their distance from her. She had never seen many of them, and even if she had seen them, she couldn't quite match their names with their faces. But Huayang alone seemed to have a grudge against her.
