The Queen Doesn't Want to Die
Chapter 223
Pei An Rong was still in shock when he heard Lu Jing Yu again say.
"In addition if the tenth Princess says that I do not have the etiquette of a princess, I also want to ask you, too, do you also have it when you talk at will when you know that the Queen Mother is very unhappy if there are people who talk at a morning banquet like this?" As Lu Jing Yu said her last sentence, Lu Jing Yu deliberately looked at Queen Zhu with a smile on her face. He wanted to see what the woman would do at a time like this. Didn't she previously really enjoy seeing other people making trouble for her? So it wouldn't be a problem to pull him to solve the problem, would it?
"The Crown Prince is right. An Rong, even though you have only come home after so long outside, you also cannot forget such basic etiquette Don't embarrass yourself while out there. For that reason, after returning home from this banquet, the tenth Princess would go to the ancestral hall to copy the women's ethics book a hundred times. In addition, after being finished with copying the women's ethics book, the tenth Princess was forbidden to come out of Sui Yang's palace for one Week so that she could reflect on her mistakes well. During the time of punishment, no one can visit him. If anyone dares to visit him, will get the same punishment." Queen Zhu said indifferently. Originally he had hoped to see this girl to give Lu Jing Yu a lesson albeit a little, though, but he was disappointed because in the end not only could he see a good show and instead he was the one forcefully pulled and used by Lu Jing Yu to solve the problem for him.
Pei An Rong widened his eyes. Although she was not the biological daughter of Queen Zhu, she always had the support of her stepmother because she also often helped her solve some of the things that bother her eyes, he was so confident that he would not be punished. Moreover, after she had followed Queen Zhu for several years, she guessed that it was most likely that the woman would hate Lu Jing Yu because Pei Zhang Xi had seized the position already prepared for her son. But what is this? He was really punished!
Pei An Rong did not accept and immediately protested. "Mother Queen. Please forgive this princess. This princess knew that she was wrong and was very sorry. The queen mother also knew that this princess had just returned after studying out there. A little bit is definitely affected by the habits outside. But the Queen Mother can be sure in a short time, this princess will surely soon return to master basic ethics. Moreover, this princess will also return to college soon after a while. Please Queen Mother be merciful by reducing the punishment for this princess." Pei An Rong looked at Queen Zhu expectantly.
Lu Jing Yu was still looking calmly at the side. He wanted to know how Queen Zhu would deal with this matter. He had already suspected that Pei An Rong was actually a subordinate of Queen Zhu in some ways despite the fact that his mother was also a veiled enemy of Queen Zhu because their son was equally ambitious to the throne.
"Heah. Alright. Considering that the tenth Princess had not been in the palace for a long time, the punishment would be reduced to copying only the woman's ethics fifty times and the period of contemplation which was also reduced to three days." Queen Zhu sighed. It is difficult to find a capable girl like Pei An Rong who can be used as his men to take care of some things that he cannot finish directly. This girl still had uses so it was still worth maintaining. Looking for a capable girl who is willing to do many things according to her orders is also not easy.
"Thank you for the Queen Mother's mercy. This princess promised to prove that this princess meant it with her promise.
Lu Jing Yu smiled bitterly. Again he was slapped with reality. Living in an era where the strong survive. And anyone who is under smart hugging the thighs of a strong person, proven to have a fairly high survival. But he also can't do anything. Although it is basically the victim of all this is not even seen from the beginning. No one asked him if he was satisfied with the punishment received by Pei An Rong who had denigrated him. Because if he were to plead at this moment, he would be considered guilty because he had questioned the decision taken by the esteemed Queen Zhu.
***
A crying young girl kneels before the corpse of a little boy about ten years old in a house on the outskirts of the titan. His tears did not stop flowing when he saw the bloodied corpse of his sister in front of him in a very sad state where his left leg and right hand were cut off. His eyes showed disappointment and anger.
An hour ago, the two sisters were still living their ordinary lives. She and her sister have been supporting each other since both of their parents died two years ago. They have a small garden next to the house they manage. Some types of vegetables look fresh in their garden ready to be harvested. Today they plan to harvest their gardens for their own feeding and the rest they will sell in exchange for basic goods. But suddenly a group of men suddenly entered their courtyard.
They immediately threatened the two brothers who were in the garden with the sharp swords they carried. They were Pei Zhong Min's men who were looking for men to become free soldiers for them. They searched the villages that were on the edge of the forest. They threatened to kill their family members if they refused even though the reality was that the person who was left and saw the incident would soon be killed to remove any trace.
With the same goal, the men asked the two brothers to call the man in their family. But since they were only two, they could not answer honestly that in the house they had no men except for her ten-year-old sister or they would be in danger. Both choose to hide.
"There's no man here. Please forgive us. Let go of you both. You can take anything in our house as long as you're willing to let us go." The brother had no choice but to confess.
"So there's no man in your house?" A man drew his sword and sheathed it before he walked towards the elder brother with a smile on his lips.
"Nothing." The older brother saw a smile on the man's lips that looked extremely sinister, immediately retreating away. He immediately pulled his sister behind his body to protect.
"Don't hurt my sister!" Shouted the older brother when he saw the man's gaze looking at his younger brother fixedly. The smile that scared him.
"You just calm down. We're not gonna hurt your sister. But we'll take him to train to be a soldier."
"No. You can't take my sister away. My sister is too small." The older brother further protected his younger brother by pulling him behind his body.
"We could have let go of your sister. But...."
