Seeing this, Wei Ziyao imitated the ancient people and heavily knelt on the ground when the Emperor was enraged. "Reporting to Your Majesty, Noble Consort, the princess has already taken the medicine, but even with the Soul Returning Pill, it will take some time for her to wake up."
"Your Majesty, according to this concubine, Princess Yin isn't proficient in medicine. She grew up with Ning 'er, so when have we ever seen her understand medicine?" Noble Consort Ji said.
Imperial Physician Zhang even revealed the matter of Wei Ziyao taking out some inexplicable things and making random gestures on the princess's body last night.
"Your Majesty, this old official feels that Princess Yin is taking the princess's life as a joke. Not only did she use something that this old official has never seen before on the princess's body, she even laid on the princess's bed to sleep. This is simply … disrespectful!"
Imperial Physician Zhang had a pained expression as he glanced at Noble Consort Ji out of the corner of his eye.
Noble Consort Ji continued, "Your Majesty, Wei Ziyao treated the princess's life as a joke. Please punish her severely!"
Wei Ziyao looked at Noble Consort Ji, who had been targeting her from the very beginning. She searched through the memories of the original Wei Ziyao and discovered that Noble Consort Ji had a grudge against the original Wei Ziyao's birth mother. She hated the house and its crow.
No wonder Noble Consort Ji targeted her.
As expected, under Imperial Physician Zhang and Noble Consort Ji's instigation, the Northern Wen Emperor flew into a thunderous rage. "Wei Ziyao, you really don't look like your father at all. Guards! Take her away and flog her fifty times. If she dies, then she dies. If she doesn't die, then throw her into the imperial prison! "
Although she was the Grand Marshal's daughter, using the princess's life as a joke was already a capital offense.
Now, even Wei Ziyao didn't know how to refute it.
The cultural difference was too great, so they couldn't understand what she was saying.
"Your Majesty, please wait!" Wei Ziyao still hoped that the Northern Wen Emperor would give her a way out and give her some time on account of the original Wei Ziyao's father being the Grand Marshal of the State and her contributions to the country.
The imperial bodyguards had already lifted her up, but the Northern Wen Emperor was still angry and had no intention of letting her go.
Wei Ziyao then looked at Ki Chien-chul and found that he didn't seem to be pleading at all.
That's right, these people had already determined that this trash was messing around, so why would they plead for leniency?
Wei Ziyao was taken away just like that.
Fifty strokes of the cane was no joke. Although Wei Ziyao had suffered many injuries before, this was the first time she had experienced the pain of being flogged like this.
The stick hit her again and again. Other than the pain, she also had a strange feeling.
Under the torture, she felt that there was a complete diagram of the meridians in her mind.
"Ugh …" This strike had cracked her ribs at the bottom of her right side, and it was clearly shown on the meridian diagram.
What was going on? Had she become one with the CT machine in the laboratory? No, even the CT scan was not as clear as what she felt at this moment.
Just like this, every time the stick hit her, she could clearly feel the changes in her body. She knew that if this continued, even if she didn't die, she would be crippled.
She counted the number of times the stick hit her body, thirty-two, thirty-three …
"The princess is awake! Stop! "Ki Chien-chul's clear voice sounded. Wei Ziyao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The princess was awake …
She was finally awake …
She had been hit thirty-three times, and now her entire buttocks were like rotten meat. It was the beginning of spring, and her entire body was soaked in cold sweat.
In a daze, she saw the tall figure approaching from afar. Finally, her eyes rolled back and she fainted.
Ki Chien-chul walked over and looked at the woman lying on the bench. His eyes were cold, but there was a hint of unexpected scrutiny. "Bring the princess consort back to her room."
Wei Ziyao woke up on her stomach. She looked left and right, but there was no one in sight. She struggled to get up, but an overwhelming pain instantly assaulted her.
In this evil feudal society, human rights were too lacking!
She gritted her teeth and tried to lift her crippled buttocks. She arched her legs forward, preparing to kneel and support her body before slowly getting up.
"Who are you?" Wei Ziyao had just lifted her buttocks when Ki Chien-chul's extremely cold voice came from behind her. The scene was awkward no matter how one looked at it …
