confused. With his limited intelligence, he found it very difficult to understand what the Seventh Heavenly King was saying."Hey, Grandpa Seven, you're leaving already Wait for me, Grandpa Seven!"She...Fang Jinshiu now has the support of King Jing, and King Jing is deeply loved by His Majesty and the Empress Dowager.
Therefore, she had already been placed within the royal circle. The situation changed so rapidly that all the officials, including Zong Pingchuan, could see it and had to accept it.
Yuan Xiangli was oblivious, still pestering the other person who responded with venomous retorts.
"You wretched, contemptible scoundrel."
"You vile, wretched thing! You dare threaten me! Bring her to me, and beat her to death with clubs!"
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes widened even further than before. The Madam was out of her mind, wasn't she
The emperor's face also darkened.
Yuan Xiangli was not just an ordinary official's daughter, even though her father was a prime minister, there was still the emperor sitting on the throne before them. In front of him, Yuan Xiangli dared to be so arrogant and wanted to kill someone
The Yuan family father and daughter really think that this imperial court has been renamed to their Yuan family's realm, haven't they!
For decades, Yuan Buyu had served by the emperor's side and knew his every thought. Before the emperor could even unleash his anger, Yuan Buyu was already trembling with fear as he rose from his seat and knelt before him in the hall.
"Your Majesty, please show mercy."
"My daughter acted rashly and ignorantly. It is my fault for not teaching her properly. I beg your Majesty to spare her life!"
Upon hearing her father's plea and the word "death penalty," Yuan Xiangli finally came to her senses, her face paling instantly.
At this point, Zong Pingchuan couldn't possibly hide like a turtle in its shell. Yuan Xiangli was his wife, and his father-in-law had already knelt down begging Your Majesty for mercy. How could he possibly remain seated
So he hurried out, pulling Yuan Xiangli along with him and they knelt down together.
Just at that moment, Zong Pingchuan's cold eyes swept over Fang Jinshi.
But Fang Jinxiu raised an eyebrow at him.
He almost choked on his own blood, gritting his teeth and kneeling down.
This woman deliberately spoke those words to provoke Xiang Li.
She also knew that she was now protected by King Jing, and she had seen through Xiangli's weakness, which was Tai Wu.
What a deep mind, what a vicious girl!
"Your Majesty, I have failed to properly manage my household. Please punish me accordingly."
Fang Jinshi returned to King Jing's side, watching Yuan Xiangli kneeling there, utterly lost and trembling. Now you know to be afraid
One who does evil to himself cannot live!
Although this wasn't on her agenda for today, Fang Jinshu felt quite pleased seeing the couple get their comeuppance.
It would be great if mother-in-law could see this.
"Do you Yuan family still have me, the emperor, in your eyes"
He pointed at Yuan Xiangli, his face turning extremely ugly.
"You, come here. I want to know what grudge you have with Jing Wang's concubine that you would insult her so viciously."
Yuan Xiangli didn't dare to speak.
Of course she could see that her son was in for a bad time if this went on.
"Your Majesty, your servant."
Before she could finish, the emperor interrupted her again.
"You're the daughter of a prime minister, a noblewoman! Where is your upbringing Where is your etiquette"
"Where is your virtue and grace Did you feed them to the dogs"
As the daughter of a high-ranking official and the wife of an important minister, you dare to speak such vulgar words! You're nothing but trash!
"How could a woman like you possibly be a good wife to an important official"
Yuan Buyu's eyelids twitched, and he heard the Emperor look at Zong Pingchuan and continue.
"Master Zong, Lady Yuan is unfit for such a position; she lacks virtue and grace. I suggest you remove her as the main wife and make her a concubine in the inner courtyard instead to reflect upon her actions."
Yuan Xiangli was stunned and raised her head, hurriedly shaking her head to plead with the emperor. She grabbed Zong Pingchuan's sleeve, her face full of anxiety.
"Pingchuan, Father, please save your daughter!"
"I, I don't want to be a concubine."
"Spare me, Your Majesty! Spare me, Your Majesty!"
She kowtowed frantically to the emperor.
Yuan Buyu silently closed his eyes and didn't look at his daughter again.
"Yuan Aiqing, hasn't the emperor given you enough face"
Yuan Buyu bent down and bowed deeply.
"Thank Your Majesty for sparing my daughter's life. I am indebted to you."
He knew the emperor was deliberately using this as an excuse to make a point, and he certainly wouldn't really kill his daughter.
Yuan Buyu could only accept such a result.
Zong Pingchuan also knew this, so he remained silent. After his father-in-law bowed to express his gratitude, he hurriedly pressed Yuan Xiangli to bow and express her thanks as well.
Both thunder and rain are the grace of the emperor; the emperor's words, whether to kill or reward, are all rewards.
And they only received thanks in return.y left with only skin and bones, aging like a decrepit old woman, ready to die at any moment.In recent years, the daughter-in-law has been busy making medicinal meals and supplements for her health. S...
