Chapter 20 The Dead Woman

  She spoke without reserve, and if she had to say something unpleasant or unpalatable.

  King Ming's eyes turned red with rage, and he slapped Concubine Ding's face with a loud slap, cutting off her words, and shouted angrily.

  "Dingxiang He, if you don't want to manage the inner house, just tell me directly. There are many women in this mansion who are willing to take charge! If you dare to utter another word against Yujie today, don't blame me for not cherishing our years of affection!"

  This slap was extremely powerful, directly slapping Empress Ding to the ground, looking disheveled and pitiful, with her hairpins askew. However, she forgot to even cry, her eyes fixed intently on Prince Ming, a chill running through her heart.

  She had been managing the household for many years, but all she got in return was a sentence - "There are plenty of women willing to manage the household."

  In his heart, what's the difference between her and other women?

  But relying on her good birth and noble family, she obtained the position of a concubine. Even if she helped him raise other people's daughters and sons, and managed the vast palace, in the end, she was just a concubine.

  That position of queen, he will forever give it to that dead woman, forever and ever!

  Ming Ru Xue was helped to a cool pavilion on the side, where her wound was treated. After washing and applying medicine to her wound, she saw her mother being beaten. She pushed away the maid beside her, lifted up her skirt and ran over. First, she glared fiercely at Yuan Yue, then squatted down to support Ding Ce Fei, with tears streaming down her face:

  "Father, what did Mother do wrong? For a dead maid, was it necessary to hit Mother? Now we still don't know if the words of Rong Shizi and elder sister are true or not. Even if they were true, isn't elder sister fine now? Do you still need to use physical punishment on her?"

  "I was intentionally harmed but didn't die, so I can be bullied by anyone. Now that your mother has been found out for harming people and is being slapped one by one, why are you panicking and shouting?"

  Or rather, I should thank you for wanting to kill me. After all these years of silence and few words, I finally opened my mouth to argue back in the midst of extreme anger!

  Yuanyuan's small face was expressionless, her eyes staring at Mingrusu like a sharp blade covered in snow, as if she would jump up and take out the stone to hit him again at any moment.

  Such a gaze, Ming's eyes shrank like snow, his whole body chilled, and the wound on his forehead hurt again, he couldn't say a word.

  King Ming heard Ming Ruxue's words and felt more and more guilty towards his daughter. Even being framed for murder, she could be cleared by Ruxue with just a few words, yet he had no idea what kind of life his daughter was living when he wasn't looking.

  No wonder the daughter who doesn't usually talk much changed her usual taciturnity today and said so many words!

  Regret surged up, Ming Wangye looked at Ding Ce Fei and Ming Ruxue who were becoming more and more unhappy, raised his hand and said:

  "Like snow, you don't need to say more! You just pretended that your arm was injured and framed your elder sister, which your father hasn't investigated yet! Come, take Concubine Ding away..."

  If the girl disappears halfway through the banquet, within less than an hour, both mother and daughter will become a joke in high society.

  Ming Ruxue couldn't help but speak up, "Your Majesty, the birthday banquet is still going on outside! The madams from the various estates are still waiting out there!" Her beautiful eyes, however, were filled with hope as she gazed at Nalan Jun, her gaze tinged with sadness and pleading.

  Nalan Jun's attention had already shifted from calculating the spy's moves to Rong Xuan's single utterance of "Leng Er".

  Since when did Rong Yi and Ming Yuqiong become so familiar with each other, even their way of addressing each other was so intimate.

  No wonder when Ming Yuqiong was blamed for murder, Rong Yi came out to testify for her, and the two were probably familiar with each other long ago.

  For some reason, Nalan Jun thought about the relationship between the two of them and a inexplicable melancholy rose in his heart, feeling that he was completely ignored by Ming Yuqiong, not even putting this future fiancé in his eyes.

  At this time, seeing the eyes of Ming Ruxue, the expectation in those eyes replaced the depression in his heart. Compared to Ming Yujing, Ming Ruxue's admiration was what he liked.

  He slightly nodded his head, with a majestic demeanor, and said to King Ming: "Today is Your Majesty's birthday banquet, the guests in the front hall are still waiting. If Concubine Ding is not present, both Miss Ming and Third Miss have been injured and it would be inconvenient for them to attend, I'm afraid it wouldn't be proper."
