An Eight-year-old Princess

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 All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

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 dare not think so. "

The empress just glanced at her coldly without saying anything.

Yun Shang sneered, "Speaking of which, although you are a lady of the State of Xia, you are just a

concubine. How dare you talk about his majesty, me and his son. Lady Lian, what crime do you think

you deserve? "

Lady Lian's face darkened, "Your majesty, you are being too harsh. Although I'm just a concubine, I'm

still a lady of His Former Majesty's, and an elder of his majesty..."

"An elder?" the old empress, who had been silent from beginning to end, suddenly said with a mocking

look on her face, "His Majesty is my own child. I haven't found anything wrong with the issues about his

majesty's imperial household or his children. Don't you think there is anything wrong with my family?

Why are you talking nonsense in your identity? What kind of elder are you?! As you said just now, you

are just a concubine of His Former Majesty, one of the concubines in the imperial household. After all,

you're just a servant with a higher status.

You are just a maid, but the Empress is the master of the imperial household. Why are you talking

about her, his majesty and his son? "

Lady Lian's face darkened.

The old empress raised her eyes to look at Yun Shan, "Your majesty, Lady Lian violated the Emperor's

orders and talked about the Emperor's heir. You can decide what to do with it."

Yun Shang nodded slightly and said with a smile, "As for the violation of the rule to talk about the

Emperor's heir, twenty slaps in the face. As for her offense, flog twenty strokes. "

"Yes, your majesty," Qian Zhuo nodded, turned around and ordered the servants, "Guards, prepare to

execute the punishment."

Lady Lian fell to her knees in disbelief.

The old empress turned to Yun Shang and said, "Your majesty, you can deal with this stupid thing here.

I'll take the others to another place to enjoy the flowers."

Yun Shang nodded slightly and said with a smile, "Mother, you should go to appreciate the flowers, lest

your eyes be stained with blood."

The old empress smiled and left with others.

Yun Shang looked at the back of the old empress and then turned to Lady Lian.

Biting her lips, Lady Lian said nothing, as if she still couldn't believe it.

Yun Shang smiled, "What's wrong? You didn't expect me to attack you all of a sudden? Did someone

tell you that I can't have children and the Crown Prince is an idiot? Did someone tell you that these two

things are my weakness and pain forever in my heart? If you poke them, I will be ashamed into anger.

But in front of others, I will definitely not admit it, so I have to find a way to let it go?

Did someone ever tell you that the Emperor's heir is the foundation of the country? If you mention it in

front of the old empress, she will definitely help you? Then I won't dare to deal with you? "

Lady Lian lowered her head and said nothing.

Yun Shang chuckled, "It's a pity for you to think so. I'm not a person who plays according to the rules.

I'm really disappointing you."

Biting her lips, Lady Lian said, "As the mother of a country, the Empress is infertile, and her only child is

still an idiot. In such a situation, the Empress still holds the important position and doesn't allow the

Emperor to marry more concubines. Don't you think you have gone too far?

The Emperor's heir is the foundation of the 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."
