Prince’s Brutal Consort - C82

Gritting her teeth, she didn’t say a single word of apology.

When he closed his eyes, the stick fell down.

At that moment, the mama must have used all of her strength. When she heavily smashed onto Ruo Ruo’s buttocks, the pain felt as if her heart and lungs were being torn apart.

Closing her eyes, she recalled everything that had happened. She knew that even if it wasn’t for the matter of playing the zither, Aunt Hong would definitely look for someone to deal with her.

Unfortunately, no one told her why Yun Ruoxi hated her so much.

After another strike, it still landed heavily.

Aunt Hong leaned back comfortably and sipped on her tea before she watched as if she was beaten up. She had a contented expression on her face, as if she had already gotten used to this kind of scene.

That one strike was so heavy that it caused the surroundings to ring with a muffled sound of a bat hitting. Cui Er rushed in and laid on Ruo Ruo’s body while growling: “All of you stop.”

Aunt Hong looked at Cui Er contemptuously, “Cui Er, with just you, I have no right to kill you. If you leave me alone and make me happy, I might even find you a good job. If you make me unhappy, I will make you suffer even worse than your master.”

It was a blatant threat, but Cui’er was not afraid at all, and she replied smilingly, “Aunt Hong, the world is still named Ximen. It’s fine if you follow that Yun, but you actually helped that woman deal with our young lady.

“Cui’er, didn’t the crown prince still listen to the empress’s words? The empress told him to bring Qin Zhiruo back. Look, didn’t he bring her back already?” “Haha, Cui Er, don’t think that you can scare me. Retreat, or else I’ll beat you up too.”

Yi Yeyu weakly raised her head and said, “Cui Er, retreat.” It was one thing for her to be injured, but there was no way she could have Cui Er anymore.

However, Cui Er didn’t get up and just lay on Ruo Ruo’s body to protect her.

“Bang!” There was a muffled sound and another staff fell. This time, it hit Cui Er.

“Cui’er …” Previously, if he really didn’t like Cui Er because Cui Er was with Xi Men Rui Xue, but at this moment, Cui Er was ignoring her own safety in order to protect her. This caused her to be unmoved.

Just as she was crying out in panic, another pole flew down. Gritting her teeth, Cui Er did not make a sound. She had actually forcibly blocked the remaining pole on Ruo Ruo’s behalf.

“Aunt Hong, it’s exactly twenty rods.”

“Step down.” Aunt Hong slowly stood up from the reclining chair and walked in front of Zhiruo and Cui Er, “Cui Er, you asked for this yourself. Come, lock Qin Zhiruo in the cage at the door to serve as an example.” Without further explanation, she did as she was told.

“Wait.” Cui Er endured the pain and stood up, “Aunt Hong, I’ve already taken the blame. If you dare to put me in a cage, the Fragrant Pavilion will not be open for you tomorrow.” Her cold tone carried an infinite amount of warning. Being entrusted with such care by others, she had to do what she said.

“Men, pull her away from me. She’s only a little girl, and she still wants to stand on my head.”

Cui Er, who was injured by the stick, started to fight with the other big men. In the beginning, she could still deal with the few of them, but gradually, the pain made her lose her ability to resist. Seeing that Cui Er was not a match for Aunt Hong’s subordinate, she could no longer ignore her, “Aunt Hong, let Cui Er go, I’ll follow your arrangements.”

Cui Er’s figure moved, and she anxiously shouted: “Miss, no!”

“Cui’er, if you truly want to help me, then, please stop.” Ruo Ruo who was still lying on the wooden board said in a deep voice. Her voice was weak, but it caused Cui Er to unconsciously slow down. She retreated and then stopped.

“Miss, you will only make that …” Halfway through her sentence, she stopped again. “Miss, I can’t agree to their request.”

Ruo Ruo smiled bitterly, was it meaningful for her to refuse him, the consequence of not agreeing would be losing Cui Er, “Cui Er, don’t worry about me, go help me with something, okay?”

“Alright.” She agreed without thinking. Seeing that it was like this, Cui’er felt reluctant.

“Go and help me find out where that beggar went after he left last night. Also, who has he dated these past few days? Where did he get the money from?” She wanted to know all of these things. Although she had long guessed that it might be Yun Ru Xi and Xi Men Rui Xue’s doing, she wanted to know the truth and not just guess.

“Lady, the Fragrant Pavilion and the city have been talking about it since early in the morning. I heard that he got the money from a wealthy businessman.”

“What about the rich ones?”

“He left on the day of our fateful encounter.” Cui’er replied very quickly.

“What about him? When did you leave last night? ” She really wanted to know all the conspiracies and truths.

“Around the fourth fragment of the night, Cui Er fell asleep. When she was awakened by a series of footsteps, she discovered that he had already left.”

“Qin Zhiruo, Cui’er, is that enough? “I don’t want to hear all this nonsense. Last night, I took the money and handed it over to someone. This is perfectly justified. What’s going on? Could it be that you want to go back on your words?” With her hands on her hips, Aunt Hong was showing off like a tigress.

Struggling to the ground, Ruo Ruo supported herself on the wooden board. Although her body was weak, her eyes showed no weakness, “Everything has already happened, is there any meaning in going back on your words? I just want to know who is plotting everything, planning everything, and who is it that can’t tolerate me, Qin Zhiruo? ” After saying all that in one breath, even if he had to leave her, he had to have a clear account book in his heart.

“Qin Zhiruo, you’re not allowed to inquire about the identity of our guest in the Fragrant Pavilion. You’ve made another mistake, do you want me to add another twenty sticks?”

If she did not make a sound, she knew that the additional consequence would be that Cui Er continued to take the beating for her. At this moment, she had already seen the crisscrossing marks of the lance on Cui Er’s body, and if not for Cui Er, she would not have been able to stand up now.

Her small arms were not able to reach her thighs. She and Cui’er were not Aunt Hong’s match. She gently shook her head and didn’t say anything more.

If she was locked in a cage, the cage would be in front of the main hall of the Fragrant Pavilion. All the guests who came and went along with the ladies of the Fragrant Pavilion would look at her with disdain.

She smiled as she faced them, but her heart was bleeding. What kind of torture was this?! If there was a chance in the future, she would return them ten or even a hundred times the torture.

No one had saved her, and no one had spoken on her behalf. Among the people walking and stopping around, there was a joke about her being asked by a beggar for an entire night. It was like a kind of mockery that tormented Ruo Ruo’s heart.

No matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t understand why all of this would happen, but it all happened so quickly, so quickly that she didn’t have the time or the means to figure out the cause and effect of it all.

That night, she passed by the disdainful gazes of the crowd, but when it was quiet, it became even harder for her to endure. Early morning dew hit her weak body, and although it was clearly still summer, she felt cold, very cold.

No one had saved her.

Qin Zhiqing did not appear, and neither did Mu Xuechen.

But apart from the two of them, she couldn’t think of anyone else who could save her.

The sun rose into the sky, piercing her eyes yet she dared not open them.

The cage was surrounded by fences. Sunlight shone from every direction, making it impossible for her to hide.

Although the wounds on her body weren’t too serious, the red scar was very eye-catching, forming a stark contrast with her white skin.

This day was her trial. It was the darkest day of her life.

However, although the morning sun was harsh, because the entire Fragrant Pavilion was still in a deep sleep, she was able to calm herself down.

There were still two days, but it was unknown how they would survive it.

After being exposed to the sun for an entire morning, her beautiful lips had a layer of skin covering them, making her look extremely haggard.

Ruo Ruo even suspected that she might die, but she didn’t want to die. She really wanted to leave this place.

There was no food, no water, and she was treated like the man who had been sent to the darkroom.

At noon, the sleeping Fragrance Pavilion began to stir. The girls woke up and stood in front of the door, combing their hair while looking at Ruo Ruo with ridicule. They treated her like a monster.

Ruo Ruo began to look forward to the coming of night. By then, at least she would be able to get rid of the sun’s rays. The sunlight was enough to make her skin feel a burning pain.

She could no longer open her eyes. It had only been a day, not even twenty-four hours, and she was already weakened from the drug addiction. She no longer had the strength to withstand it.

If she really thought she was going to die.

Even his breathing seemed to have weakened.

The wound on her buttocks forced her to kneel in the cage. Her body leaned against the bars of the cage. The leaves that had been tossed onto her white arms made her look extremely bedraggled.

“Shameless.”

“A beggar woman.”

That voice kept drifting past his ears …

However, the torture was still far from over. Ruo Ruo’s addiction had flared up.

Cui Er didn’t come to feed her the honey water, which could help her control her drug addiction. If she didn’t know what was added to the honey water, then as long as she drank it, the pain in her heart would subside, until the drug addiction broke out again the next day.

Cold sweat streamed down his body, but night had just begun.

In her ears, she could no longer hear those ear-piercing words. Her eyes were filled with an unknown world, causing her to feel so sad.

Time had become especially hard to endure, and she didn’t know how to continue to endure it.
