She couldn't help but sweat for Zi Chai. It was about half the time for the incense stick, and Zi Chai came late. Wang Miaoyan saw her salute, but refused to let her off.

Zi Chai just stood there, not knowing when it would end. She couldn't help but feel a little anxious, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Why don't you kneel down?"

"Madam, slave, slave."

"You still dare to quibble! Yesterday I clearly saw Fangrong coming out of your room. Also, you washed her clothes for her, right?"

Zi Chai nodded fiercely upon hearing this.

"No slaves."

"How dare you lie to my wife?!"

Wang Miaoyan was so angry that she reached out and grabbed Zi Chai's collar. Zi Chai suddenly had difficulty breathing and her face turned red.

"No slaves!"

Zi Chai shook her head desperately, Wang Miaoyan let go, and Zi Chai fell to the ground, covering her chest and coughing.

"How dare you lie to my wife, you cheap hooves?!"

Wang Miaoyan slapped Zichai, who was so frightened that her tears fell down. Wang Miaoyan was even more angry when she saw Zichai crying in tears.

"Snapped!"

"Bitch hooves!"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
"Tell me, what bad thing is that bitch Jiang Wu holding back lately?"

Wang Miaoyan was so angry that her nails dug into her flesh, but she didn't feel any pain at all.

"This slave really didn't lie to Madam."

Zi Chai shook her head like a rattle. Seeing this, Wang Miaoyan raised her hand and slapped Zi Chai.

With a "pop" sound, Zi Chai's earrings were thrown away, knocking over things on the table.

"Madam, the father-in-law is here."

Du Juan stepped forward to report, she really couldn't bear to see Zi Chai being tortured and humiliated like this.

"understood."

Wang Miaoyan was calm and relaxed, but felt the pain in her palm. She winked at Du Juan and asked her to step forward and knead it.

Shen Ruzhi stepped forward, glanced at Zi Chai indifferently, and told Zi Chai to get out.

"Madam, I don't know why you are angry. If you don't like Zi Chai, then ask someone to send her to Xipo!" Shen Ruzhi felt very sorry for Wang Miaoyan.
Seeing her unhappy expression, she quickly comforted her.

"I don't mean anything else, but this girl is too unruly!"

Wang Miaoyan wiped her eyes weakly and said pitifully: "She actually dared to deceive me."

"Cheating? What did she lie to you about?"

Shen Ruzhi looked at Wang Miaoyan in confusion, not knowing why he said this.

"It's not Jiang Wu's courtyard. People have been coming in and out recently, and I don't know what bad ideas they are holding back. Last time, because of the third prince's matter, I almost got into trouble with the Duke's Mansion. I'm afraid that they will bring trouble to her. Dongyin, when the time comes, the emperor will ask the father-in-law about his crime, what should we do?"

Wang Miaoyan looked pitiful and pitiful. After hearing this, Shen Ruzhi felt that what she said was reasonable.

"Madam, don't worry. As long as your husband is here, nothing will happen to you. Besides, the third prince's incident is his own fault."

"However, I heard that the emperor has issued an order to abolish the third prince's title as a warning to others."

"what?"

"This is just a woman's opinion, sir, please don't take it to heart."

Wang Miaoyan lowered her eyebrows and said,

Shen Ruzhi didn't believe it. After all, the news was so sudden that he couldn't even react.

"Madam, why don't I go check it out and find out the whole story?"

"Alright."

Wang Miaoyan nodded, and Shen Ruzhi immediately sent someone to investigate.

At dawn, Cuizhu came to the yard and started to collect some herbs. She heard a faint cry from the edge of the grass. It was very sad and she couldn't help but feel worried.She followed the source of the sound and saw Zi Chai lying on the ground crying loudly from a distance.

"Oh, Miss Zichai, get up quickly and stop crying!"

Cuizhu saw Zichai crying sadly and hurriedly stepped forward to help her. Zichai gradually stopped crying when she saw Cuizhu coming.

"Miss Zichai, who bullied you?"

Zi Chai shook his head and choked.

"I am fine."

"It's okay? It's okay. Why are you crying so sadly? Could it be that someone bullied you?"

"No, it's just that I feel sad when I think of myself."

Zichai was sold into the Duke's Mansion. Since being sold to Shen Ruzhi, she has been a concubine. However, she has no name, no status, no favor at all, and has been tortured all over her body.

"Why do you have so many injuries?"

Cuizhu couldn't help but be a little surprised when she looked at the shocking scars on her body.

"I'm fine. It's just a skin injury. It's not a problem."

Zi Chai wiped the tears from her eyes and shook her head with a forced smile.She knew that at this time, the sadder she was, the more likely she would be laughed at, and it would be better to show strength.

"Oh! You are really miserable. I watched you enter the palace, and I don't know how to help you. But don't worry, I will never stand idly by. I will go find His Highness right now to see what he can do. Can I help you?"

"Thank you, Sister Cuizhu."

"Okay, Zichai, you don't have to be polite to me. We are both the same people, both poor people."

Cuizhu comforted Zichai and brought Zichai to the study. However, she did not see Shen Fu. Instead, she met Wang Miaoyan.

"Zichai, you came here to be lazy again, right?"

Wang Miaoyan's tone was unkind, and Zichai was so frightened that she quickly knelt down and begged for mercy.

"Madam, I know my mistake. Madam, spare my life. I will go back to the house right now."

"Hmph! Go back to the house? Don't you want to see Shen Fu? I tell you, I won't allow you to see him."

Wang Miaoyan said proudly. When Zi Chai heard this, she was shocked and quickly begged.

Cuizhu was not afraid of Wang Miaoyan, but she also didn’t want Zichai to get into trouble, so she advised: “Madam, I know you are doing this for Zichai’s own good, but after all, she was personally selected by the father-in-law, so you must consider the father-in-law’s face. Bar?"

"Face? Huh, she doesn't deserve it."

"lady!"

Cuizhu was anxious and was about to say something else, but Wang Miaoyan waved her hand to stop her. She turned to look at Zichai.

"What? What else do you have to say?"

"Madam, please remember the hard work of serving the father-in-law in Zichai, and please don't embarrass Zichai again."

"Oh, you bitch who eats everything!" Wang Miaoyan was about to wave her hand, but was stopped by Cuizhu.

"Madam! Please calm down! If you hit Miss Zichai, wouldn't you be slapping the father-in-law in the face?"

Cuizhu looked like he was complaining about Zishai.

"you"

Wang Miaoyan was furious and glared at Cuizhu fiercely, but Cuizhu was not to be outdone. The two looked at each other, as if they were going to fight at any time.

Zi Chai knelt on the ground and shivered, not knowing what to do.

"Forget it, get up."

Wang Miaoyan took a deep breath and finally compromised.

Zichai quickly stood up, and Cuizhu helped her leave.

Zichai returned to the bedroom, and as soon as she sat down, Cuizhu asked with concern.

"Zichai, don't panic, I'll help you apply the medicine."

Cuizhu took the ointment and gently applied it on Zichai's injured arm. Zichai bit her lip but endured the pain.
