The middle-aged man was stunned by the book, and it took him a long time to recover. Thinking about the beautiful woman he had just seen, his heart was very confused. This time he didn't dare to look up and could only look at her with his eyes.
She is beautiful and has such a fierce temper, it's really... He was thinking about it in his heart, and he felt a dull pain in his shoulder again. Someone kicked him on the shoulder.
"You are so unreasonable. Why do you hit people for no reason?" He raised his head and asked loudly, pretending to be righteous. However, as soon as he finished speaking, he heard a burst of crisp laughter.
The bell-like sound dissipated in his ears, and the middle-aged man felt that his heart was half melted.
He tried hard to hide his restless heart, but when he looked at Ah Man, he felt that his blood was boiling.
"you… "
"You broke into my bedroom and said I was unreasonable. Where did your reason come from?"
"The reason I can come here is because someone asked me to. This palace is not open to everyone. I..."
"Of course you can't enter this palace just because you want to." Ah Man looked at the middle-aged man's eyes staring at her, feeling very annoyed. After saying this in a low voice, she was ready to turn around and leave.
If she didn't want to know what they were up to, there was no need for her to bother with such people. However, he didn't understand the situation at the moment, and with his current brain, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to get anything out of them.
When the middle-aged man saw Ah Man turning around, he shouted to her anxiously, "Little beauty, wait a minute."
Before Ah Man could stop, he was slapped several times on the face.
"Why did you hit me? You..." The middle-aged man was a little confused after being hit. He just called her "little beauty" just now, why...
"You are so brave. You broke into Princess Jiaoyang's bedroom and dared to call Princess Jiaoyang "little beauty". Do you think your life is too long?"
The guard who made the move couldn't help but smile and speak. He had been in the palace for many years and had seen many brave men, but today he had finally opened his eyes to someone who was so brave and fearless.
"I'm not, I..." The middle-aged man was stunned after hearing what the guard said.
Although he lived in the market, he knew something about the affairs of the court and the harem. He had also heard of the name of Princess Jiaoyang. Although the queen was no longer around, she was the only legitimate princess of their Bei'an.
The little beauty just now turned out to be Princess Jiaoyang.
If you call a princess "little beauty", it is indeed offensive, but...
His mind was no longer responsive at this moment, it was just a blank, he didn't know how to respond, after a long time, he stammered a few words like you and me, but the words didn't form a complete sentence, no one understood what he wanted to express.
Ah Man naturally had no intention of watching him hesitate any longer. After her back disappeared in the hall, the guards surrounding the middle-aged man attacked without mercy. The reason they had restrained themselves just now was that they were afraid of scaring Princess Jiaoyang.
After a round of beating and kicking, several guards surrounded the middle-aged man lying on the ground wailing and asked loudly: "Who asked you to come, and what did you come for?"
"I didn't know she was a princess. I really didn't know. The person who asked me to come said that an unpopular concubine in the palace was lonely and wanted me to accompany her. He also gave me twenty taels of silver, so I came."
The middle-aged man didn't expect that he would be beaten up again after he confessed. He held his head and shouted with grievance, "I told you everything you asked, why did you still beat me? I..."
"That's all?" After another beating, several guards spoke again. They could tell that the man had only said half of what he was saying.
"I, I really have nothing to say. I was also deceived. I am also a victim."
The middle-aged man wanted to complain, but as soon as he finished his words, he was beaten again, still mercilessly, and still made him cry out in pain.
