Chapter 119 Disaster is Coming
"Chunmei has confessed. Yesterday, Green Tea put medicine in her pearl milk tea, saying it was for preserving the fetus, but it was actually for causing an abortion. Mr. Zhao Si has also testified that he saw with his own eyes that he ordered Green Tea to pour the medicine in. What else can you quibble about? Catch him!" the middle-aged woman ordered forcefully, with a ferocious look on her face.
Lin Yan had never imagined that by being a hero she would bring herself into such a disaster.
Green Tea was the first to react after hearing this: "I did buy bubble tea for Chunmei, but there was no medicine in it at all. It was all nonsense from Mr. Zhao Si."
"Master Zhao Si is of royal blood and highly respected, how could he lie? Everyone in the mansion knows that Master Lin is jealous of Concubine Chen. Your little bitch must be a green tea!" said the middle-aged woman with disdain.
Green Tea felt something was wrong and was too frightened to say anything. She wanted to speak, but now she couldn't.
The strong woman didn't care and continued, "Master Lin asked you to give him the medicine, right?" She pinched Green Tea's cheeks hard, making it impossible for her to speak normally.
Green Tea's eyes widened, and she shook her head in fear, uttering single words, "No...", "Unfair...", "No..."
"Old woman, this little bitch has already confessed, let her sign the name!" It turned out that this sturdy, dark-skinned woman was named Chen Po.
Granny Chen said to Green Tea smugly, "You little bitch, do you still dare to deny it? The evidence is conclusive, so just wait for your punishment!" As she said that, she threw the paper in her hand to the ground and motioned for Green Tea to sign it.
Green Tea watched everything in front of her in horror. She knew she was framed, but she was powerless to refute it. She cried desperately, tears sliding down her cheeks. At this time, the atmosphere in the room was tense and solemn.
"I got it, Mrs. Chen." The woman called Old Cow took out a written document with her rough hands from somewhere and forced her green tea fingers to press her fingerprints on it.
When everything was done, the leading woman said lightly, "Take him away and beat him to death with sticks."
"No...let go of Green Tea..." Lin Yan desperately wanted to break free, but was tightly bound by three burly women. "No, you can't wrongly accuse me like this." Lin Yan shouted desperately: "You have no evidence, you force me to sign, you are one-sided, you are wrongly accusing a good person, the prince will never disturb you when he comes back."
"Master Lin, you should think about yourself. Concubine Chen is pregnant with the only child in our Rui Palace in many years. From ancient times to the present, murdering the royal heir is a serious crime. Do you know who sent us?"
Lin Yan shook her head sadly.
"We were sent by Concubine De. Concubine De was very angry when she heard about this. You were born with a bad fate, but she has been kind enough to let you be a concubine. Not only did she not show gratitude, but she also went too far and endangered the heirs of Prince Rui's mansion. You are not allowed to stay alive in the mansion. The prince will not be back in the next few days, so don't even think about it. Sign and seal quickly."
No wonder I have never seen these people before, and I finally know why they are so arrogant. No wonder Zhao Yuan has not come back after dark today. Lin Yan sneered in her heart, what a good plan!
Green Tea, who was dragged out and beaten in the yard, soon fell silent.
Lin Yan was so desperate that she had no strength to struggle. She clenched her fists tightly. Several maids tried to pry them apart several times but failed. At a glance from Aunt Chen, the other maids pressed her down on a bench and started beating her with sticks that came from nowhere.
"Bang bang bang..."
One stick after another fell on Lin Yan mercilessly.
Lin Yan was sweating coldly from the pain, her face was as pale as paper, her lips were bitten and blood was constantly gushing out, but she was stubborn and refused to loosen her fist.
"Bitch, let's see how long you can last?" The leading woman, Mrs. Chen, said viciously, swinging the stick in her hand even harder.
Lin Yan's consciousness gradually became blurred, everything went dark before her eyes, her body seemed to be falling apart, she could no longer hold on and passed out.
At this time, Guard Li had just come back from outside. When he was walking towards the yard, he suddenly felt something was wrong, so he quickened his pace and rushed in.
"Stop!" Suddenly, a roar was heard. The sound was like thunder, making the ears of the people present buzz.
Everyone turned around and saw a man standing at the door, emitting a cold aura. His eyes swept around and finally fell on Lin Yan. When he saw Lin Yan's miserable appearance, his eyes instantly became extremely cold, as if they could freeze the air around them.
"Who gave you the guts to touch Prince Rui's woman?" Guard Li was furious, his voice booming like thunder. He flashed, pouncing on the sheep like a tiger, kicking the closest woman away. The other women were knocked to the ground by him before they could react.
The other women turned pale and trembled as they watched the strange man in front of them, their hearts filled with fear and confusion.
"Who are you? How dare you act wild here!" One of the women asked bravely, trying to suppress the other party with her aura. However, her voice trembled unconsciously.
"Who are you? How dare you act wildly in the Rui Palace!" Guard Li's eyes were wide open, and there was anger in his eyes. He held the knife tightly in his hand, and the blade flashed with cold light, which made people shudder. He walked towards the group of women step by step, and every step seemed to step on their hearts, making their heartbeats accelerate.
At this time, Guard Li had already walked in front of the group of women, and he put the knife on the neck of one of them. It was the old woman Chen who took the lead in bullying Lin Yan.
Granny Chen was so frightened that her face turned pale and her lips lost their color. She looked at Guard Li in horror and her body stepped back involuntarily. However, she still pretended to be calm and replied stubbornly: "Being able to beat a dog depends on its owner. You are just a small guard in the mansion. What qualifications do you have to meddle in other people's business? If you know what's good for you, get out of the way!"
Hearing this, Guard Li became even more furious. He beat Chen Po without hesitation, making her scream. He hit her hard, and each punch was full of power, causing Chen Po to feel unprecedented pain. Before long, Chen Po's face was swollen like a pig's head, and she was unrecognizable. She couldn't see her original appearance at all.
Granny Chen was beaten so hard that she was shaking all over and her head was buzzing, but she was extremely frightened. She knew that she had offended someone who was not easy to deal with. If she didn't find a way to beg for mercy as soon as possible, she might lose her life today. So she knelt on the ground with trembling legs and said in an extremely pitiful tone: "Sir, spare my life! This is the order of the Concubine De, and we are also following orders."
"Empress Defei..." Guard Li suddenly understood. No wonder she was so arrogant.
In any case, the most urgent task is to rescue Master Lin first, and then make a decision after the prince returns.
Just as she was about to leave with Lin Yan in her arms, Mu Xueli and a group of people came rushing over. She saw the scene in front of her and pretended to be shocked and cried out, "Oh my! What on earth happened here?"
The sudden noise forced Guard Li, who was about to take Lin Yan away, to stop and stand still.
"Who are you and why are you hugging Concubine Lin?" Mu Xueli immediately asked.
"Reporting to the princess, I was sent by the prince to protect Master Lin."
"Oh, why haven't I heard of it?"
"Manager Zhai knows." Guard Li replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.
