The rebirth of a concubine: Gong Du will become the Queen Mother

While beating him, Jiang Shiying also complained about Jiang Jing's sins.

"This whip will punish you for disrespecting the court."

There was a "pop" sound, accompanied by Jiang Jing's wailing.

"This whip will punish you for not respecting the imperial edict."

There was another "pop" sound, and Jiang Jing was already crying with pain.

"This whip will hit you if you disobey Your Majesty."

"This whip will punish you for being unfilial and disloyal."

"This whip will punish you for disobeying my father's orders."

"This whip will make you ignorant and incompetent."

"This whip will be harsh on you."

"This whip will make you lose all character."

...

A whip struck Jiang Jing's body, causing him to roll on the ground, but he still couldn't escape.

Jiang Jing felt extremely humiliated, hurt and scared at the same time. He refused to accept it at first, but soon he started wailing and begging for mercy: "I was wrong, I was wrong, please let me go, dad, please save me. "

Jiang Shiying didn't want to beat Jiang Jing to death now. Wouldn't that be an advantage for him? Let's see, she still has a backup plan waiting for him.

Therefore, before Jiang Pengyuan could not help but plead for mercy, Jiang Shiying put away the whip and ordered the servants: "Come here, send the young master back to Jinsong Courtyard. Then ask a doctor to give the young master a good look. Don't do it." The root of the disease falls."

Jiang Jing thought to himself, who cares about you pretending to be compassionate?

As soon as Jiang Jing was carried away, Jiang Shiying glanced at the housekeeper.

The housekeeper immediately asked for instructions: "Sir, except for those who sent the young master back to Jinsong Courtyard and those who went to ask for the doctor, all the servants are already here. Do you want to start the execution?"

Jiang Pengyuan waved his hand and said, "Let's get started."

As soon as he finished speaking, the guards started to take action.

Rows of benches were placed in the yard, and the tortured servants were tied to the benches with their backs facing up.

They wanted to beg for mercy, but the scene where the second lady whipped the young master just now was still vivid in their minds. The second young lady is really a ruthless character, and I am afraid that begging for mercy now will not make the second young lady relent, but will only increase the punishment.

The guards raised and lowered their sticks.

This cane punishment is also very particular.

It may look heavy-handed, but the injury is actually very minor. It can also appear to be merciful, but in fact the injury is serious.

The second lady, who looks like a jade-faced Rakshasa, is watching from the side. Who dares to let go, fearing that the whip will fall on him in the next moment?

Soon, the sounds of boards falling on people, the sounds of wailing, and the sounds of people crying and admitting their mistakes echoed one after another in the yard.

After the execution was over, Jiang Pengyuan ordered the housekeeper: "Find someone to come and sell all these unscrupulous slaves. Everyone else should disperse."

The butler took the order and left.

Jiang Pengyuan walked into the front hall and motioned for Jiang Shiying to follow.

As soon as he sat down on the main seat, Jiang Pengyuan asked: "Are you satisfied now?"

Jiang Shiying picked up the tea cup, took a sip first, and then said: "It's okay."

Jiang Pengyuan frowned and said carefully, "These are just servants. They should be punished if they make mistakes. You and Jing'er are siblings. They broke bones and connected tendons. He did some things inappropriately. but--"

Jiang Shiying didn't wait for him to finish, and interrupted directly: "Father, I know you feel sorry for your brother. But to tell the truth, although I taught him a harsh lesson, I didn't just want to give myself some relief, but really It’s really for the sake of our Jiang Mansion.”

"Oh? How do you say this?" Jiang Pengyuan raised his eyebrows and looked at her.

"My younger brother is the legitimate son of Jiang Mansion, and he is also the only son. He is the only heir to this huge Jiang Mansion." At this point, Jiang Shiying sighed: "But father, do you think he can shoulder this burden? ?”

Jiang Pengyuan was shocked. He had to admit that Jiang Shiying was right.

In the past, he was busy with government affairs and left the upbringing of his children to his wife. Only occasionally when he had free time would he call Jiang Jing over, ask him a few questions, and warn him to study hard.

Compared with his attitude towards the two concubines, this is a rare consideration.

But compared with his eldest daughter who was carefully cultivated by him since childhood and wanted to send her to the palace and give Jiang Jiabo a share of great wealth, it was far behind.

In the past, he had thought that this son was not to say outstanding, but he was also smart.

Looking at it today, I have to say that there is some mud that cannot hold up the wall.

Looking at his expression, Jiang Shiying knew what he was thinking: "Father is right. After all, my surname is Jiang. As a family, we are both prosperous and devastated."

At this point, she changed her tone: "From now on, when my sister and I are in the palace, we will naturally plan carefully for the family. Just be afraid, because my brother will be ineffective outside. It's okay to be mediocre. I'm just afraid that he will cause trouble for the family and make me My sister and I’s efforts in the palace, and my father’s efforts in the previous court were all in vain.”

Jiang Pengyuan was worried before that the second daughter, who was resentful towards Jiang Mansion, might not be clear-headed and only think about going against the family. If this is the case, he must make a marriage arrangement for her before the draft.

Now it seems that she is a little girl after all, and she has some resentments, but after all, she is a family member and cannot be separated. After letting her say this, all her grievances were gone, and there was nothing to worry about.

Jiang Pengyuan felt relieved about Jiang Shiying, and his thoughts returned to Jiang Jing.

"Alas!" He sighed and said, "It's because his father neglected to educate him."

"How can you blame your father?" Jiang Shiying disagreed: "My father is a minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and is busy with government affairs. He has already worried about the Jin Dynasty. There are times when he cannot take care of the small things of his children."

Looking at Jiang Pengyuan's expression, she knew that Jiang Pengyuan actually thought so in his heart. The blame for Jiang Jing's incompetence might have been dumped on his aunt-in-law a long time ago.

Jiang Shiying's disdain for this man grew in her heart, but she didn't show it on the surface: "The most urgent task is to be ruthless and bring Jing'er back to the right path."

"Or-" Jiang Shiying changed her words and stopped after saying two words.

"Or what?"

"Perhaps it would be better to have another male in our house. My father has taken him by his side to educate him since he was a child. He has been influenced by his ears and eyes. He will definitely become a talented person praised by everyone in the capital."

"Do you think I don't want to?" Jiang Pengyuan sneered. After all, a legitimate son is not safe. In the early years, he had tried very hard to have another son, but over the years, ever since Jing'er was born, there had been no more baby cries in the house.

"Next door to the Zhou Mansion, a young master was born last month. Mr. Zhou is more than ten years older than you. How can father be so sure that our family does not have this blessing?" Jiang Shiying The tone was light, but it spoke directly to Jiang Pengyuan's heart.

"But your mother, and Aunt Mo, haven't received any good news in more than ten years." Jiang Pengyuan was moved, but there was still a bit of uncertainty in his tone.

"If you ask me, it's because my mother and Aunt Mo have lost their bond as children." Jiang Shiying said bluntly: "Why don't my father find a girl from a good family outside the house who has an innocent background, preferably has read some poems, books, etiquette, and is in her prime years? , hired as a good concubine? Maybe, there will be good news soon. "

"Good concubine?" Jiang Pengyuan frowned, which was a slap in Mrs. Jiang's face.

Jiang Shiying looked sincere: "My little brother's background shouldn't be too ugly, right? The son of a good concubine is much better than the son of an aunt. It will be much smoother for him to enter the official career in the future."

He said this as if the missing child had now been born.

"Wouldn't it be enough to keep it in your mother's name?"

"Father, do you really think that if you bear your mother's name, your mother will treat him wholeheartedly?" Jiang Shiying put it bluntly, "Father, don't forget, your surname is Jiang, my surname is Jiang, and my little brother's surname is Jiang. But mother, But his surname is Zhao."
