Concubine Zhu didn't even dare to look at A'man. Her only hope now was that the people in Jinxiu Palace would be more efficient and finish the job quickly and leave. Then she could turn the tables and say that it was A'man who sent people to Jinxiu Palace to frame her.
Concubine Zhu had made great plans, but she did not expect that reality would slap her in the face. In less than half an hour, the palace maids and eunuchs who went to Jinxiu Palace came back, carrying Lian Huan who was beaten half to death. Behind them were the palace maids and eunuchs who were escorted by the guards. They looked embarrassed and it was obvious at a glance that they were the real executors of Lian Huan's crime.
Before this group of people came to them, Rumeng had hurriedly handed the whip to A'man.
"Hurry up and carry Lian Huan into the bedroom, and call the imperial physician." Ah Man looked at Lian Huan's bloody face, her heart already filled with rage. She tried hard to suppress her anger and gave the order anxiously, saying that nothing was more important than Lian Huan's life right now.
"Princess, Princess." Lian Huan, who was in a daze, heard Ah Man's voice and suddenly spoke. Ah Man walked quickly to her. She was about to hold her hand to give her courage, but she didn't expect that a cold and hard object had been stuffed into her hand.
Ah Man knew without even looking that it was she who asked Lian Huan to come to Concubine Zhu to get the golden seal of the palace.
"You silly girl, this thing is worthless compared to your life." Seeing that Lian Huan was obsessed with the golden seal of the palace after being seriously injured, Ah Man felt distressed and sad.
Lian Huan no longer had the strength to speak, but she used all her strength to stuff the golden seal of the palace into Ah Man's hand.
If it were in the past, Ah Man would not need the golden seal to order the eunuchs and maids in the palace to do things, but now, she was not sure, so she had to do her best to help the princess.
"Silly girl, I have already arranged for someone to take care of the Queen Mother's funeral, so don't worry."
Ah Man comforted her softly, but her eyes were filled with sadness. She was trying hard to hold back her tears, but a voice that sounded reckless came from behind her.
"Who told you to send this slave girl to my bedroom? Does she deserve it? Take her out quickly." Concubine Zhu's voice was hysterical. In her opinion, she was of high status and the bedroom she lived in was not something a maid like Lian Huan could touch.
She was only concerned with the anger welling up in her heart, but forgot that she was in the wrong first and this was definitely not the time for her to show off her presence.
As soon as she said it, she regretted it. She lowered her head, trying to reduce her presence, but she didn't expect Ah Man to suddenly turn around and shout to the palace maids and eunuchs behind her: "All of you leave."
The chaotic crowd was stunned for a moment, but it was only for a moment, and they all retreated in surprise, leaving only Concubine Zhu standing in front of everyone in a somewhat embarrassed manner.
"What do you want to do? I am the Imperial Concubine, and you let a slave girl occupy my bedroom. Princess Jiaoyang, what are your intentions? You..."
Ah Man was too lazy to continue talking to Concubine Zhu. It was a waste of words to persuade a woman who was confused and making trouble everywhere, so she would never use words instead of taking action.
Ah Man raised the whip in her hand and lashed at Concubine Zhu. Even though Ah Man had said before that she would not spare her, she did not believe that Ah Man would hit her. After all, she had watched Ah Man grow up over the years, and she had no ill will towards anyone. But Concubine Zhu did not expect that she had successfully disgusted Ah Man and made Ah Man treat her with all his ill will.
Ah Man knew that she had a special identity and a special situation and could not act recklessly. But when she thought of Lian Huan and looked at the woman in front of her, she couldn't help it after all. She raised the whip and whipped her again and again.
