C45

The two grown men studied Wen Yi in the room for the better part of a day.

On the other hand, Wen Yi ordered people to take pen and paper, and used their hands to recall the manufacturing method of the wheelchair. Fortunately, she worked in a hospital, and a wheelchair was a daily occurrence.

After drawing for the better part of a day, she was finally able to catch up. It was just that she didn't have enough blueprints, and she also needed a skilled craftsman to craft it for her.

She found the mama and asked: "Are there any skilled blacksmiths in the capital?"

mama shook his head, "I'm not sure about that, but I've heard that Xiao Qing's father is a blacksmith, I just don't know how strong her skills are. Princess, what are you looking for the blacksmith for? "

"Xiao Qing?" Wen Yi's memory was very good, and she quickly remembered that Xiao Qing was the girl who was kicked out of the residence after she slapped him.

"The one who was chased out of the palace by the concubine." Xiao Ju reminded.

"Didn't you say that she didn't have the money to treat her mother's illness? Since her father is a blacksmith, he should be able to earn a lot of money. " Master craftsmen are a very popular profession in modern times.

The mama sneered, "My foolish Princess, what can a blacksmith earn? Two taels of silver a month at most. Do you know how expensive it is to see a doctor take medicine now? "If the poor are ill, if their families are poor, they are waiting for death."

"So it's like that!" Wen Yi pondered for a moment, then called Xiao Ju over, "Xiao Ju, you lie on the bed."

Xiao Ju did not understand, "What is Princess thinking?"

"Wen Yi grinned," mama and I will go out of the palace to look for Xiao Qing. If you fall asleep on the bed, once the Prince sends someone to question you, you won't be exposed.

Xiao Ju and mama were shocked, "Why are you looking for her? If the Prince were to find out about this, then there might be more trouble. "

"That's why I told Xiao Ju to stay in bed. Don't worry, we'll be back soon, we'll definitely be back before nightfall." As Wen Yi said this, she jumped down to the ground, scaring mama, who hurriedly supported her, "My Princess, your wounds don't hurt? "Be careful."

"It really doesn't hurt. Cut the crap, I have something to do with Xiao Qing's father. Xiao Ju, give me some of your clothes, I'll change and go out immediately." Wen Yi asked mama to explain a few things to the girls who were still outside the house so that they would not be caught in the trap.

Xiao Ju wanted to continue persuading her, but seeing that Wen Yi had already taken off her brocade dress, waiting to change into her maid attire, she could only give up and quickly switched it with Wen Yi.

Wen Yi was a decisive person, she acted as she pleased and without delay, she dragged mama out of the palace.

However, no matter how she tried to conceal it, she was still much taller than Xiao Ju.

When she passed by the corridor in the courtyard, she was seen by the little girl, Chun Ning. Seeing her disguised, she knew something was wrong, so she quickly went to report to Yang Luofan.

After Yang Luofan heard Chun Ning's report, he quickly led his men to investigate. She was clearly injured, so how could she leave home with flying steps? Could it be that she was faking it? She had seen the wound with her own eyes. Unless that wound was fake, how could she not feel any pain when she was cleaning the wound?

Xiao Ju lay on the bed, trembling. She was not worried about Yang Luofan, because Yang Luofan would not dare to offend her easily. It would be impossible to visit the Princess, as long as there was no poison. Thus, she was only worried that the prince would send people to investigate, and that the little girl outside the house would not be able to handle the situation properly, and would be noticed by others. Right now, the prince's temper was not very good. If he were to find out that the Princess did not care about his injuries and had secretly left the house, he would probably be furious.

Just as she was worrying, she heard the sound of footsteps coming from outside the house, then she heard the little girl's panicked voice, "Greetings Imperial Concubine Rou!"

Xiao Ju stomped on the ground and his body stiffened. She immediately pulled up the blanket to cover her head as his body lightly trembled. Why would the Imperial Concubine Rou come? Didn't she come here with Godly Doctor Zhuge today? Her tone was not too good, she shouldn't have come to greet the Princess.

"Where's the wangfei?" Yang Luofan's voice lightly sounded, bringing with it a sense of majesty.

The little girl's voice was a little panicked as she stammered, "Reporting to Imperial Concubine Rou, Royal Concubine Empress just fell asleep and ordered … "Don't disturb me."

Imperial Concubine Rou's tone of voice was indifferent as she said: "Open the door!"

The little girl seemed to be kneeling down when she heard the sound. "Imperial Concubine Rou, the wangfei has instructed that no one is to disturb her."

"You dare to stop Imperial Concubine Rou? It was the prince who ordered the Empress to come greet the wangfei. The prince also ordered the Imperial Concubine Rou to bring a message over, a scanty little girl like you actually dares to block the way of the Imperial Concubine Rou? You want to die? " It was the voice of Chun Ning, viciously smashing into the air, seemingly full of snobbery.

Xiao Ju's heart turned cold on the spot. Even with the Princess, she wouldn't be able to stop them when they came with the orders of the Duke.

The door was suddenly pushed open, and someone walked in. Xiao Ju pulled her blanket tightly, and his body was trembling. When she was in the marquis Palace, she had already seen the power of the Imperial Concubine Rou. On the surface, it was empathetic, but it was dark and sinister.

"Elder sister!" Imperial Concubine Rou's voice sounded above Xiao Ju's head, carrying a trace of ridicule and disdain. Naturally, she already knew that the person on the bed was not her sister.

Xiao Ju clenched her teeth tightly, did not make a sound, and even more so, did not dare to move.

Chun Ning had personally witnessed Wen Yi leaving the palace, so how could she allow Xiao Ju to muddle his way through? Although she did not know who the person on the bed was, she was certain that it was not Wen Yi, so she was not afraid of offending him. She immediately reached out to pull away the blanket, and Xiao Ju immediately crawled up, kneeling on the ground as she said while trembling: "This servant greets Imperial Concubine Rou, Imperial Concubine Rou, please forgive me!"

Yang Luofan shouted angrily, "How dare you?! How dare you, a mere maid, sleep on a wangfei's bed? "Lawless, come on, send this offensive girl into the dark room!"

Xiao Ju was scared out of her wits. The secret chamber was specially used by the Duke Palace to punish servants who had committed serious crimes. Not only did she not get up on her knees, she even had to suffer the punishment. Even the robust servants wouldn't be able to last two days.

Xiao Ju's face turned white, she kowtowed and begged for mercy, "Empress, please spare my life, I will not dare to do that again."

Yang Luofan stretched out his hand to stop the servants who were trying to drag Xiao Ju, and asked coldly: "Where did the wangfei go? If you speak the truth and I can spare your life once more, if you are still hoping for a fluke, don't blame me for not showing any mercy. "

Xiao Ju knew that Yang Luofan hated Xiao Qing, and naturally did not dare to say where Wen Yi had gone to. She only shook her head and cried, "This servant doesn't know.

"You don't know?" Yang Luofan frowned and said coldly: "Truly a good servant loyal to the master. I do not wish to make things difficult for you, let us go ask the prince right now, and see how he will deal with you."

When Xiao Ju heard this, her face turned deathly white, and she immediately begged: "Please calm your anger Empress, you absolutely cannot tell the Duke, Princess, she …"

"She what?" Chun Ning bent down and pinched Xiao Ju's thigh with all her might, causing Xiao Ju to grimace in pain, "Still not telling me?" It's over, she added another kick and coincidentally kicked Xiao Ju's lower abdomen. Xiao Ju was in pain, but she did not dare make a sound. Her mind was in a mess, congealed into a paste, she did not have a single idea, and blurted out: "Princess went to look for Xiao Qing."

Yang Luofan gritted his teeth and asked coldly, "Why is she looking for that bitch?" In her heart, she secretly resented how generous he had said that when he was in the palace, he would never fight with her for the throne. He had just come out and had not fully recovered from his injuries, yet he had gone to find Xiao Qing in an attempt to expose the matter of her intentional framing that day.

Xiao Ju shook her head, "This servant doesn't know."

Yang Luofan's face darkened, and said to the servant behind him: "Slap your own face ruthlessly!"

A sturdy looking servant immediately stood out and asked: Empress, how many times did you slap him?

Yang Luofan said coldly: "Until she is willing to speak!"

Xiao Ju was forced to kneel on the ground by two servants, when the servant walked up to him and waved her hands, raising the bow left and right. In the afternoon, a bird flew across the sky, adding a trace of gentleness. In this room, it was unexpectedly cruel and poisonous. Xiao Ju had been continuously slapped more than ten times, the corners of her mouth and nose had been drenched in blood, her face was swollen and tall, and her hair was in disarray.

Xiao Ju had never been beaten like this before, so now that she could bear it, she was continuously beaten up, but she could not even cry, it made people who saw it feel miserable.

The servant also seemed to not be able to bear it any longer, his actions becoming lighter, he slapped himself a few more times, then turned to ask Yang Luofan, "Empress, are we still going to continue beating him?"

Chun Ning stepped forward, pushed the servant away and said angrily, "Empress didn't stop, why are you asking so many questions? Look at your hands and legs, haven't you eaten? "

With that, she rushed to the makeup table, picked up a wooden ruler, and with the wooden ruler as her hand, she struck it down. This wooden ruler was originally used by the mama to cut clothes, and was even thicker than an ordinary ruler. After hitting this ruler, Xiao Ju's face immediately became as red as a pig's head after a few consecutive blows.

Seeing the situation, the girl outside the hut could not care about being scolded, she immediately went in to plead for Xiao Ju.

Seeing Xiao Ju being beaten to such a state, Yang Luofan's anger rose a little, and he said coldly: "The reason I'm beating you up today, is because you, as a girl with a lowly status, lied on Princess Hua-Yang's bed, and it was an affront. Second, if you let her leave despite knowing that she was injured, would you be able to bear it if something happened to her? Therefore, this beating is also to punish you for your incompetence in protecting your master. Are you convinced? If you are not convinced, we can go before the prince and argue. However, I cannot guarantee that the prince won't use such a light hand. "

Xiao Ju's heart was aggrieved to the extreme, only, he did not dare even cry, and could only kowtow and beg for forgiveness, "I would not dare, this servant will remember Imperial Concubine Rou's love and education, this servant's heart does not have any grievances with you."

Yang Luofan nodded his head in satisfaction, "It's good that you don't mind. Then control your own tongue and don't cause trouble everywhere.

Xiao Ju lowered her head, and said with a half-sobbing voice: "This servant knows, that the matter today, was caused by this servant's mistake, and the reason why Empress punished this servant, was also for the good grace of the Duke Palace. This servant will remember that, in the future, this servant will not dare to offend again, and will not dare to say a single word in front of the Duke and the Princess."

The corner of Chun Ning's mouth curled up into a cold smile as she coldly said, "It's good that you think so. Empress is kind, if I don't beat you into the dark room, you will remember Empress's kindness." With that, he supported Yang Luofan and said respectfully: "Empress, let's go.

Yang Luofan acknowledged his as he left coldly.
