Chapter 424: Just Wait To Apologize With Death

Chapter 424: Just Wait To Apologize With Death

Just as the palace maid by Noble Consort Su’s side said, with things this big, and with Princess Min Xiang being Rui Qinwang’s full-blooded younger sister, as such, how could he have not received news? His people certainly will notify him first thing, and afterwards, no matter what, he will surely question. Just, Li Hong Ming’s understanding towards Princess Min Xiang was ultimately lacking, and at the time, he just happened to still have matters at hand. In his view, it was merely seizing some people, that’s all, handling however it should be handled, not that big of a deal, and so naturally didn’t rush over first thing. By the time he received news again, he immediately dropped the matter at hand and hurriedly rushed over, his insides nearly turning green from regret.

That’s why, towards their way of thinking, Li Hong Yuan sure enough understood very well, and using what method and needing to do what to what kind of people, he was all very clear about.

Rui Qinwang also wanted to strangle Princess Min Xiang to death. ————–Seeing her still unconscious, her head wrapped in white bandages, not just once did he produce this kind of thought.

Doing such a ‘malicious’ thing, damaging the imperial family’s reputation, and now, even becoming a one-ear princess, she was practically just the disgrace of the imperial family.

In reality, what Princess Min Xiang did, in their eyes, simply wasn’t considered anything, regardless whether it was Noble Consort Su or Rui Qinwang, the premise being that it absolutely can’t become known to others. For people like them, which one didn’t have their hands tainted with blood and human life? In private, it didn’t matter, dying was just dying. But, if brought onto the surface, then it won’t do. Even if it was just a slave that can be freely killed by the master, if brought outside, one would all get criticized as malicious, let alone a commoner, and even two children. As such, even if it was getting pointed at and condemned by thousands, it all wasn’t too much. And those opponents of his further will grab onto this point and attack him to death. Although it was something done by his younger sister, they will still have it all pinned on his head.

And all of this, once this good younger sister of his dies, can all be erased. If she’d been able to die by her fuma’s hands, then naturally it couldn’t have been better.

This is the price she needs to pay for doing such a stupid thing!

Li Hong Ming stared at Princess Min Xiang with killing intent in his eyes for a long time. The servant girls and mamas kneeling to the side trembled in fear.

Li Hong Ming in the end didn’t strangle Princess Min Xiang to death. The people that knew about him entering the princess manor weren’t in the minority. As soon as he enters, Princess Min Xiang just dies, then even if there was nothing, others would still believe there was something. Moreover, quite a few people from that brother-in-law’s family clan were still outside. That’s why, he not only couldn’t do anything, he even needed to make sure that this younger sister was perfectly fine.

But, the vicious currents inside his heart were difficult to dispel. To not do a bit of something, having it all bottled up inside, will be awfully unbearable for him.

“Someone come, have the people serving by the princess’s side all dragged out and beaten with the rod thirty times, and all the guards in the princess manor beaten fifty times.”

“Wangye, wangye, have mercy, wangye……………..” A bunch of people loudly kowtowed, begging for forgiveness.

If not for valuing his reputation, Li Hong Ming would’ve directly slaughtered them. What use was there begging for forgiveness now?

Li Hong Ming’s reason for sorting these people out naturally couldn’t be more proper————When the master did something wrong, to not help advise against, instead even aiding in the abuse, getting beaten to death was all deservedly so.

Everyone all got dragged out. Very soon, the painful screams sounded in the courtyard. No one stuffed their mouths. It was obvious, venting was one thing, but it was more so done for certain people to see.

For Princess Min Xiang to have fainted, it was mostly still because of fright. As such, she woke up rather quickly. After waking up, that kind of sharp pain suddenly washed over. Although she’d gotten her ear torn off after losing conscious, that feeling of getting bitten was still very clear. She subconsciously reached out to touch. The feeling was completely different from what was expected. In an instant, her mind thoroughly woken up. Even if getting wrapped in several layers, it still shouldn’t be flat. Princess Min Xiang carried a lifeless look. Even the pain all got overlooked by her.

“Lost one ear, a one-eared princess, doesn’t it feel pretty good? In the future, you will be quite the center of attention, aren’t you happy?” Rui Qinwang sat by the bed, saying without the slightest emotion.

Princess Min Xiang screamed out in despair, madly wanting to pull apart the white bandages on her head.

“Sometimes, minor injuries, if not careful, all will lead to death. If you want to die, pull all you want. With you like this now, dying would be cleaner.”

Seemingly provoking, yet seemingly also the truth, Princess Min Xiang finally calmed down a little, lifting her head to look towards Li Hong Ming, her eyes penetrating with a trace of disbelief. As if the person that was sarcastically speaking to her wasn’t the older brother that would usually dote on her in the past, in fact, he can’t even compare to a stranger, but further like an enemy. That feeling of fear from nearing death still haven’t completely disappeared. Facing this kind of older brother, Princess Min Xiang just felt extremely wronged. Never mind not helping her vent, he even dared to speak to her like this?! “Li Hong Ming, am I your younger sister or not, you’re actually treating me like this? I’m going to tell consort mother!”

“Tell consort mother? If consort mother is in front of you right now, afraid she’ll further want to beat you to death, an idiot that’s unable to accomplish anything, yet cause plenty of trouble.”

“What did you say?” Princess Min Xiang pounced over, wanting to scratch him.

Li Hong Ming slightly turned his body, singlehandedly grabbing her wrist, violently tossing back onto the bed, “Never mind spoiling you and indulging you on normal days, to think that you were actually raised into such a brainless moron. You are a princess, of golden branches and jade leaves^[1]. If others do something sorry to you, without needing to do anything, someone will take care of it for you. Never mind you personally handling, to even have it known to all, if you’re not a moron, then what? This time, you screwed over consort mother and this prince this terribly, yet you’re still counting on consort mother to protect you? Without consort mother and this prince, can you still be the most honorable one among your sisters? In the palace, you’ve offended quite a few people before? Do you know what it’s like to lose power and get thrown down a well?”

Princess Min Xiang’s face, for a moment, blanked. She probably didn’t understand too well exactly how she screwed over her own consort mother and older brother.

Li Hong Ming went forward, grabbing her by the hair, forcing her to lift her head, “Even now, you still don’t know where you were wrong?”

Princess Min Xiang actually already vaguely realized it, but, “What did I do wrong? It was that damned lowly man deceiving me and betraying me first. Having him chopped into bits is all deservedly so.” Princess Min Xiang hysterically screamed.

“You’re right, even if he dies, it’s all deservedly so, anyone would all know this. This kind of thing needs to be handled in secret, yet you dare to make a huge ruckus? Who do you think you are? Li Hong Yuan? Unfortunately, you don’t have that fate of his. Min Xiang, you best pray that imperial father won’t take his anger out on consort mother. Else, just wait to apologize with death.”
