Rebirth of Spoiled Crown Princess-Chapter 24
Chapter 24
Yi Niang was beaten
During all her ranting Lian Jin Rong was proud and arrogant.
An Zhong Tao slammed his hand on the table.
"Won't you shut this mouth of yours! What is the difference between you and a shrew? You say someone is trying to frame you? Look at the way you act who would dare to frame you? It would be more likely that you are the one framing others".
Lian Jin Rong instantly regretted her outburst and tried to explain herself
"Qie was just trying to say that she had none to protect her being a Shu daughter…"
However, Dong Fan Jin interrupted her :
"It is too late now to enter the palace. One should respect the palace Ban. I would advise you to wake up early tomorrow if you want to meet Shu Gufei. However, father emperor does not recommend the people in the palace to meddle in other's affairs. He often says that even an honest and upright official will have difficulties resolving a family dispute!"
An Zhong Tao looked at Lian Jin Rong with anger
"What do you want to do once you meet Shu Gufei? Do you think she has the leisure to care and bother about you? Besides, one should not let family shame be spread abroad! Can't you understand such a simple thing?"
Lian Jin Rong was not willing to give up. She stood strong raising an eyebrow.
"You are all accusing this concubine wrongly! And you won't even give me the chance to argue?"
An Zhong Tao couldn’t stand this farce anymore. He clearly gave her a way out , but not only did she start yelling. She wasn't respecting him has her master?"
"Come! There won’t be any favoured treatment in the general estate! Those who ignore the family rules will be punished with 20 plank stricks. This master will stay to count them we shall see who dares to disobey!"
An Zhong Tao voice could be heard from afar.
Lian JinRong was instantly scared. They had been married for such a long time but never before did he raised his voice at her. But now he wanted to have her beaten? Her face paled in surprise.
"My lord! Are you really going to have this concubine punished? Are you really going to have me beaten?"
An Zhong Tao turned his head to look away. Lian Jin Rong was finally scared. She looked at each of the other people present in the courtyard and none would plead for her. All she could do was grind her teeth when she saw the two strong maids approaching her.
"You two don't let this concubine be embarrassed let's go". Lian Jin Rong didn't say another word and walked out. A black shadow full of hate and bitterness filling her eyes.
After what the all heard the plack hitting 20 sticks. However, Lian Jin Rong didn't make a sound.
Lian JinRong was brought back in the courtyard supported by the two servants. Although she didn't have any strength left she bit her lips and the stubborn look in her eyes could not be mistaken.
An Zhong Tao blew up.
"Are you unwilling to accept your mistakes still? Come and take her away. She is banned for three months and no one should let her out without this lord orders!"
Lian JinRong was taken away and the keys she kept on herself at all times were handed to An Zhong Tao. He sighted while taking them and turned to Lin Jin Yu. Waiting to hand them over".
It was at that moment that the new meals arrived. An Zhong Tao put the key in his pocket and invited the crown prince to help himself.
An Qing Ran was relived, she never thought that things would go so smoothly today. That clever Lian Jin Rong, how could she roar and kick up a fuss in front of the crown prince, when her father already lost face? She even used Shu Guifei to pressure him! Wouldn’t her father be disgusted by her actions?
She looked at her mother. From the beginning until the end she didn't say a word, her face showing a calm expression.
An Qing Ran leaned on her shoulder and smiled cutely.
"Mother this dish is really delicious! Dad should taste it too."
At these words, she put some of it in the general’s bowl using her chopstick.
An Zong Tao was surprised. This daughter had always been afraid of him. Even if he knew that she loved him more than he did. Thinking about it he said to the girl:
"Ran er should also eat more!"
