2521 Eat It All!
Junior Eunuch Li’s teeth gnashed his teeth furiously, but he couldn’t move his body at all.
Caiqi went outside to call in two Eastern Palace guards. They hoisted up Junior Eunuch Li without another word and pressed him against a bench.
They then started flogging him soundly.
Junior Eunuch Li had lost all face and self-respect after getting restrained and flogged. His face flushed red as he yelped in pain.
The young crown prince consort was wearing a vibrant red, and her features were delicately exquisite. She walked out from the side chamber and stood atop the long staircase, looking down expressionlessly at Junior Eunuch Li getting punished.
There were many palace maids and eunuchs standing in the court, yet none of them dared to utter a word. They all cautiously bowed their heads and kept their eyes down.
After the 50 strikes were over, the two guards dragged Junior Eunuch Li down from the bench. They tossed him back roughly onto the ground. Afterwards, they cupped their hands toward Qiao Mu then retreated silently to the side.
Qiao Mu looked coldly at the person sprawling on the ground. She made a finger gesture and waved her hand, promptly undoing the immobilization talisman on his body.
When Junior Eunuch Li discovered that he could move, he immediately struggled to stand up. He glowered at Qiao Mu and asked sinisterly, “What is the meaning of this?”
“Carry them out,” Qiao Mu ordered.
Caiqi and Caixiu quickly directed the palace maids to carry out the several dozen dishes on the table.
Qiao Mu randomly picked up a stir-fry pumpkin dish and smashed it in Junior Eunuch Li’s face.
Junior Eunuch Li reflexively sidestepped in shock, evading the dish attack, yet who knew that this young crown prince consort would continue smashing one dish after another at his face. Congee, noodles, and soups hit his face, putting Junior Eunuch Li in sore straits.
The junior palace maids who accompanied Junior Eunuch Li here had long been trembling in fright. They prostrated on the floor and were afraid to raise their heads.
“Ah!” Junior Eunuch Li was about to explode from fury.
“You!”
“Make him eat it, and eat everything.” Qiao Mu’s icy voice contained no warmth.
Thus, this young crown prince consort looked scornfully at Junior Eunuch Li. She turned to instruct the two guards on the side to force-feed Junior Eunuch Li the food on the floor.
Without another word, the two guards shoved congee, noodles, and various delicacies and pastries into Junior Eunuch Li’s mouth.
“Ah, bleck!” Junior Eunuch Li felt nauseous when he felt the icy food in his mouth. He wanted to spit it out, yet how would the two Eastern Palace guards give him the chance to spit it out?
By the time Zhao Tengdong rushed over after being informed, those two guards had tormented Junior Eunuch Li to the point that he nearly kicked the bucket.
Zhao Tengdong moved forward nimbly and saluted toward Qiao Mu. “This servant Zhao Tengdong greets the crown prince consort.”
The young crown prince consort looked at him expressionlessly. “Go call over the imperial kitchen’s manager eunuch.” fre(e)webnovel.comfr eeweb novel
“Understood!” Zhao Tengdong immediately responded and sent his right-hand junior eunuch right away to summon the imperial kitchen’s manager eunuch.
Zhao Tengdong was actually on good terms with the imperial kitchen’s manager, Eunuch Xun. However, he could only worry on the latter’s behalf for now.
From the looks of it, the young crown prince consort seemed to be very angry.
This matter probably would not conclude nicely.
