Chapter 336: Making Jiang Pei Pay the Price

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Jiang Pei and the others turned around immediately. When she saw that it was

Yu Yunxi, her expression changed drastically. She hurriedly said, “Greetings,

Eldest Princess.”

On the other hand, Jiang Yuanzhong; Jiang Pei’s father, frowned.

‘Why did this Eldest Princess, who caused a huge commotion as soon as she returned, come to the Jiang Residence?’

Although Jiang Yuanzhong had his doubts, he still lowered his and bowed as he said, “Greetings, Eldest Princess.”

Yu Yunxi got out of the carriage while Feng Yili stayed seated in the carriage. He wanted to get off the carriage to help her, but she wanted to deal with this on her own.

Yu Yunxi said slowly, “Lord Jiang, you serve the imperial court, but do you know that your daughter had the audacity to harm a member of the imperial family and a court official?”

“Eldest Princess, what do you mean? My daughter has always been obedient and sensible. How could she have done such a treasonous thing like you said?” Jiang Yuanzhong refuted angrily. He felt that Yu Yunxi’s words were an insult to his character.

Jiang Pei’s face was red as she chimed in, looking unnatural, “That’s right. Although you’re the Eldest Princess, you can’t slander me.”

When the assassins did not return, Jiang Pei already knew that something was wrong. However, she did not expect Yu Yunxi to look for her so quickly.

Yu Yunxi continued to say nonchalantly, “You bribed Qu Yu’s maidservant and sent people to ambush us in the shop. You even ordered that maidservant to push the blame on the Qu family. Am I wrong?”

Jiang Pei’s expression was very unsightly at this moment. She straightened her back and pretended to be calm as she asked, “Eldest Princess, do you have any evidence to back your claims?”

Jiang Yuanzhog had been serving the imperial court for many years. If he still could not figure out the truth at this moment, then he would have been an official for so many years in vain.

Put aside the fact that Yu Yunxi had a very high status in the Emperor Emeritus’ heart, Jiang Yuanzhong knew that just based on Yu Yunxi’s status in the imperial family alone, anyone who tried to harm her would have their entire family executed. Apart from that, although his relationship with the Qu family was not good, it was not so bad to the point where he wanted to frame the Qu family.

Despite all the thoughts in his mind, Jiang Yuanzhong remained calm outwardly. He said gently, “Eldest Princess, why don’t you follow me into the residence first, and we’ll discuss this matter at length? Perhaps there’s a misunderstanding.”

A loud thud rang in the air, and Jiang Pei’s contorted in pain.

Without a moment’s delay, Jiang Yuanzhong also quickly kneeled down and kowtowed to Yu Yunxi. He pleaded, “Eldest Princess, it’s my fault for failing to discipline my daughter. Please spare her life. Please don’t report this to the Emperor, and our Jiang family will be at your disposal!”

“Is that so?”

Yu Yunxi raised an eyebrow slightly as though she was seriously considering Jiang Yuanzhong’s words. After a long time, she said casually, “Since Lord Jiang is so sincere, I’ll let Jiang Pei off this time. However…”

Jiang Yuanzhong said anxiously, “Eldest Princess, if you have any requests, please feel free to state them!”

“Father!”

“Shut up!” Jiang Yuanzhong roared at Jiang Pei.

Jiang Pei could only shut her mouth and hold back her tears.

“Jiang Pei’s actions are really too much. What do you think about punishing her with 30 lashes of whip?” Yu Yunxi asked slowly.

“30 lashes?! Aren’t you trying to kill me?!” Jiang Pei asked angrily. “Eldest Princess, 30 lashes are indeed…” Jiang Yuanzhong said hesitantly.

“Oh, does Lord Jiang object to this? If so, why don’t we go and look for the Emperor now?” Yu Yunxi asked with a sneer.

Jiang Yuanzhong lowered his head and said with great difficulty, “No… I’ll leave everything up to the Eldest Princess.”

With this, Yu Yunxi glanced at Jiang Ying and said, “In that case, Jiang Ying,

you deal with it.”

Jiang Ying, who had been entrusted with a task from Yu Yunxi again, was very excited. He quickly brought his whip out and walked toward Jiang Pei.

“Father, Father, save me! Save me!”

Following that, screams of agony rang in the air.

Yu Yunxi looked at Jiang Pei coldly, completely unmoved. After all, Jiang Pei deserved it.

By the time the 30th lash fell on Jiang Pei, she was already on her last breath.

At this moment, Jiang Yuanzhong asked tentatively, “Eldest Princess, my daughter… is already like this… Is this enough to appease your anger?”
