Chapter 1173 Just A Servant With A Higher Status

The group nodded from time to time in agreement. They had been happy to hear what Lady Lian said.

However, the smile on everyone's face gradually disappeared. The old empress frowned. Other ladies also looked at Lady Lian in astonishment, and some looked at Yun Shang's reaction from time to time.

Yun Shang sneered. She knew she couldn't let it pass this time.

She wondered whether it was because she had appeared too good tempered usually that everyone could come close to her and criticize her at will?

"Lady Lian," Yun Shang said calmly.

Lady Lian smiled, "Yes, your majesty."

Seeing that Lady Lian didn't seem to know what she really meant, Yun Shang couldn't help smiling, "Do you have any sisters who haven't got married?" Without waiting for Lady Lian's answer, Yun Shang continued, "It's not right. Lady Lian is in your thirties. I'm afraid your sisters have already been married. Or do you have a niece who hasn't married yet? "

Lady Lian didn't know why she suddenly changed the topic. She nodded in a daze and replied, "Yes, I have two nieces who are not yet married."

"Oh, how old are they?" Yun Shang asked.

"One is thirteen, the other is eleven."

"That's too young. They both haven't come of age yet. They cannot get married yet," said Yun Shang. She nodded slightly and turned to Lady Lian, "Your two nieces are still so young. Do you want to send them to the palace? Do you want them to be concubines of his majesty? What kind of positions do you think are appropriate for them? "

The confusion in Lady Lian's eyes deepened, "Why did you say so, your majesty? I... I have never thought of sending them to the palace as concubines. "

"Oh?" Yun Shang blinked her eyes and said, "I heard from you that his Majesty's palace is empty. I supposed you wanted to send your nieces to the palace, didn't you?

Or maybe... Or maybe you want to give birth to more children for His Former Majesty? " Yun Shang sneered.

Lady Lian glanced at the old empress in a hurry and tried to argued, "I... I

state. Does the Empress want to ruin the future of the State of Xia?"

Yun Shang lowered her eyes and played with the jade pendant on her waist casually, "You can tell the Emperor, the old empress, or even His Former Majesty about it. Maybe it's useful. If you tell me, I will only be angrier and then attack you more severely. "

Yun Shang raised her eyes and suggested seriously, "How about you go to his majesty, the old empress or His Former Majesty to talk about it again after I finish the punishment?"

Lady Lian bit her lips and said nothing.

The servants quickly found a long stool in the yard next to the Imperial Garden. Yun Shang raised her hand and said, "Press her on the bench and beat her hard!"

The servants answered and quickly pressed lady Lian on the stool. Then they took the Imperial Staff and began to flog.

Lady Lian clenched her teeth but said nothing.

"Why are you so stubborn? I wonder what benefits your master has given you to work for him like this. Don't you think it's a good idea to live a peaceful life in the palace without worrying about food and clothing? "

Yun Shang chuckled, "Do you think I will ask you who instigated you?"

Biting her teeth, Lady Lian looked up, her face covered in sweat.

Yun Shang raised her eyebrows, "Don't worry. I'm not interested in who instigated you to do this."
