Mu calmed herself for a while and sat back to tell her, "It's true that it came from the palace. Because your grandfather and father were illustrious in battle, the previous emperor bestowed a batch...All the people in the hall were astonished. Li Yanran's expression was too obvious, this was love at first sight for the Imperial Venerable!
Everyone in the Ye family looked at Shi Linyuan, especially Ye Qingmei, Ye Chulian, and Zhuier. They all stared fixedly at Shi Linyuan, their meaning was crystal clear — you better make a statement! Even if you are an emperor, you can't just love whomever you want.
Shi Liyuan of course couldn't possibly love one person. He didn't just not love, he ruthlessly destroyed everyone he met.
Li Yanran's actions this time directly angered Shi Lifeng. A red light suddenly rose in the Xuming Hall, and the Emperor, with a single hand, unhesitatingly unleashed his magical spell towards Li Yanran.
The previous moment, Li Yanran was still full of love in her eyes. The next moment, there was only bloodshot eyes left. She covered her eyes and cried out, "Ah!" Then she knelt down on the ground, tearing herself apart and shouting— "My eyes! My eyes!"
Shi Liyuan's evil intentions were boundless, blinding Li Yanran's eyes wasn't enough. He impatiently waved his sleeve, like swatting a fly, and with a "boom," sent Li Yanran flying away.
Li Yanran, blinded, crashed straight into the snowdrift outside the door and landed on Old Madam Ye.
"She just looked at this deity! She gouged out her eyes!"
She just called me Lord! Pull out her tongue!
Shi Liyuan swept all the tea on the table onto the floor. "How can there be such a shameless woman in the world"
When it came to executing orders, he was exceptionally efficient. Once the Emperor had given his command, he immediately rushed out. It seemed like he was determined to help Butler Zhou Cheng today, so when he rushed out, he pulled him along as well.
Then he pointed at Li Yanran and said, "Tongue pulling and eye gouging, we each do one. You choose first."
Zhou Cheng felt he couldn't choose either way, it was too cruel.
Then he advised him, “If you don’t learn to do these things, how will you stay in the Night Mansion and manage affairs for the Empress Dowager Besides, is this a little cruel There's even crueler things to come! If you don't choose one now, you won't be able to accept the tasks later.”
Zhou Cheng thought for a moment, "Then I'll still dig out my eyes!" After all, those eyes had already been blinded by the Emperor, so he didn't have much psychological pressure digging them out.
The two of them went into the snowdrift to look for Li Yanran, leaving behind a group of people in the room whose faces were not looking good. Especially Ye Qingmei, she wanted to vomit several times but held it back each time. On New Year's Eve, Li Yanran was going to kill Ye Wenyan, so the Emperor was taking revenge.
Shi Liyuan was still lounging in his chair, as if he had seen through Ye Qingmei's thoughts. He then spoke, "Digging out her eyes and pulling out her tongue isn't about avenging Ayan. This deity simply finds it particularly disgusting to be glared at like that by her, so I want to gouge out her eyes. And I also find it disgusting that she calls me 'Your Majesty' a few times, so I want to rip out her tongue."
Everyone calls this deity a god, and this deity has a rather bad temper, I believe you've all heard about it.
Ye Qingmei pondered carefully. Indeed, there had always been rumors circulating among the people that the Emperor of Yanhuagong was extremely temperamental. Anyone who angered him would have no chance to repent. He would directly take their life. Because the Emperor didn't have time for you to repent. Whether you changed or not was none of his concern; he was only responsible for sending you to the afterlife.
This Li Yanran has committed no ordinary transgression, she has committed blasphemy against the gods! Can the gods not be angered
Then Ye Qingmei nodded, "Your Majesty does everything right." But after thinking about it again, she asked, "Then Your Majesty, do you want to avenge Yan'er"
Shi Li pointed, "Of course. Wait until the tongue is pulled out and the eyes are dug out."
Just as they were talking, Lian Shi brought in a tongue, and Zhou Cheng also tremblingly held up a pair of eyeballs.
Through the door came Li Yanran's heart-wrenching cries. She still wanted to scream, but because her tongue was gone, she couldn't utter a single word.
What was truly agonizing was that despite the intense pain, she remained conscious. She couldn't even faint, so she was forced to endure it all. This torment was more terrifying than death itself for her.
Old Madam Ye lay beside her, watching this scene unfold. At that moment, she felt the pain of a knife wound was nothing compared to this.
Although it was a stabbing pain that pierced through her back; although she was injured like this and still conscious, alive with this excruciating agony. But she still felt the stabbing pain was better than having her eyes gouged out or her tongue ripped out. At least it was a quick, sharp pain. This kind of torment inflicted by Li Yanran, she truly couldn't bear it.
All the servants in the Night Mansion were dumbfounded. The maids could still hold on for a while, but the female attendants all vomited and cried, terrified out of their wits. Worst of all, they dared not get too close to Xuming Hall, so they could only run far away.
Shi Liyuan then said, "Those who ran away and cried, none of them are suitable to serve our young master."
Ye Qingmei quickly said, "They are working in the front courtyard. Yan'er has her own people in her courtyard."
Shi Liyu only then nodded in satisfaction, and then told Lian Shi and Zhou Cheng, "Throw it to the dogs!"
At that moment, he asked Zhou Cheng, “Which family in Lin'an’s inner city has a dog”
Zhou Cheng thought for a moment and said, "The Li family, it's Li Yanran and her family's place, there's a big black dog there."
Lin nodded, "Then send it to Li's house! You go!"
Zhou Cheng was upset, how could it be me again
But though I was unhappy, I couldn't just ignore the call of duty, so I could only resign myself to fate, sticking out my tongue and squinting my eyes as I went.
Li Yanran's howls were no longer human noises, but Emperor Zun's affairs were not yet finished. He looked at Li Yanran for a while, pondering and saying: "How did she harm Ayan at the New Year's Eve Palace Banquet"
The young girl answered proactively, "She forced my mistress to perform the knife-edge dance."
Shi Li nodded, "Then cut off his legs and throw him back to the Li family, let him fend for himself!"
As soon as the words were spoken, Lian Shi didn't say a word and went to carry out the order.
By the time her feet were severed, Li Yanran had gone numb. It wasn't until she was dragged out of the mansion of the First Rank General that she finally realized what had happened to her. Unfortunately, it was too late. The deed was done, and there was no turning back. All the beautiful future her parents had dreamt for her vanished in an instant. She even wondered if she could even step foot back into the Li family's home looking like this.
The carriage of the Ye Mansion stopped once again at the entrance of Li Mansion. The tightly closed gate just opened because of Zhou Cheng's arrival, and from inside, one could faintly hear the cries of Mrs. Tao, the head wife, and the scolding voice of Madam Li.
The servants who followed from the Night Manor looked at each other, unsure of how to proceed.
This trip, the scheduled carriage didn't arrive. It was Ye Wenyan's coachman, Zhou Shang, who drove the carriage. Seeing that the people below were hesitant, Zhou Shang proactively stepped forward, walked up to the front door and shouted loudly—“Li Family people! Come out! Your eldest daughter, Li Yanran, has returned!”
In a short while, Madam Tao, with disheveled hair, ran out and rushed towards the carriage. But when she lifted the curtain and saw Li Yanran inside, she fainted at just one glance.
Li Zhiyuan fainted at the sight of his wife. He quickly stepped forward and glanced into the carriage. His brain buzzed, and he felt dizzy.
Li Yanran opened her mouth and cried, reaching out to grab her father, but Li Zhiyuan stepped back two steps, letting her grasp at empty air.
Tao cried hysterically, scrambling back to her feet outside the train car. She wailed, "Who did this to you My daughter! I swear I'll get revenge for you!"
Zhou Shang let out a cold snort. "The Emperor's orders were carried out, Madam Li wants to seek revenge on whom Does she plan to question the Emperor Well then! You get in the carriage with me now, I'll take you back to the First General's Mansion, and you can confront the Emperor yourself."
I also have to remind you, when you see the Emperor, please control your eyes and mouth. Don't be like your daughter, shameless! When you see the Emperor, you just rush forward. The Emperor didn't directly kill her already, it's already showing mercy!
The onlookers didn't know what was going on. They just saw Li Yanran covered in blood from head to toe, her two eyes seemed blind, and her feet were gone. Someone bold enough asked, "What happened"
Zhou Shang didn't hide anything, loudly recounting what had just happened in the Ming Hall, emphasizing how Li Yanran was shameless and tried to seduce the Emperor upon meeting him. Such a debauched woman deserved to be thrown into a pigsty!
As soon as people heard this, they were agitated. Was there such a thing Could Li Yanran still have any face left She was courting an Emperor! Don't you think you're Ye Si Miss just because you are her!
Then someone said: “In the world, only Miss Ye Si is worthy of being noticed by the Emperor. Your Li family, no matter how noble or related to the Empress Dowager, is nothing in front of the Emperor. Besides, Miss Li, who has been to prison once, what qualifications does she have to admire the Emperor She's not worthy!”
"Right! The eldest daughter of the Li family is dissolute and vulgar, defiling the Imperial Majesty. She deserves to be thrown into a pigsty!"
"Everyone has forgotten how she stole the Empress Dowager's credit and sold the life-saving pills for one hundred taels each. Such a girl is no different from a venomous scorpion! Anyone who takes advantage of national difficulties should be beheaded!"
“Li usually walks sideways in the inner city of Lin'an, relying on his family having produced a queen. Now that the queen has become empress dowager, he is even more arrogant. Now you get to taste what it's like to be oppressed. If you have the guts, go find the Emperor to seek revenge!”
People jabbed at the Li family, each word a blow to their faces. Li Zhiyuan's anger was like a volcano about to erupt; he couldn't contain it.
He also felt sorry for his daughter and wanted revenge for her, but unfortunately the person who did it was an Emperor. He dared not, nor did he have the ability to take revenge.
Zhou Shang said to the servants of the Ye family: "What are you standing there for Hurry up and carry him down. Such a fine carriage is now stained with blood, it's really unlucky. How can anyone sit in this compartment after all this blood Has Zhou Guanjia not come out yet"
As he was speaking, Zhou Cheng walked out from the Li mansion, saying as he went, "Old Madam Li, you don't need to send me off. You are the wisest among us. Since I have admitted to this crime, I will return and report to His Majesty." He glanced at the blood-soaked carriage and muttered, —"It's truly uninhabitable now!"
Mrs. Li immediately ordered the servants, "Hurry and prepare the carriage! Send these esteemed guests back to the mansion of the First Rank General!"
>drugged. 。He was startled and instinctively looked around, also moving to stand in front of Ye Fei's bed. 。He would always make sure to protect Ye Fei Zhou first, no matter what happened. 。He shouted...
