Yue Nu received the order and took the long whip from Princess Yi Le's hand, then began to whip Jiu Sheng.

Slave Yue was a man who had trained in martial arts. He had used all his strength, but in just three or four lashes, the skin on Jiu Sheng's back had been torn open. However, Jiu Sheng did not make a sound. She clenched her fists in the dark and allowed the whip to lash her body. If someone bent over to look at Jiu Sheng's face, they would definitely see the hostility in her eyes.

" Stop, stop, stop." After a dozen lashes, Jiusheng's back was already a bloody mess, and her clothes were dyed red with blood. Princess Yi Le waved her hand to stop Yue Nu." How can a commoner like you endure it?" How boring. Moon Slave, throw her into the water prison."

Jiu Sheng was about to lose consciousness when a gentle voice rang in her ears." Le, how many times have I told you? Girls shouldn't be so vicious. What's wrong with that?"

Jiusheng raised her head with difficulty. Princess Yi Le already had an extraordinary bearing, but the man she was supporting was even more breathtaking. Dressed in a moonlit brocade robe, his black hair was casually tied up with a jade hairpin, and his clear and bright eyes carried a languid air. His slender figure exuded elegance, and his temperament was refined. The natural cinnabar mole between his eyebrows made him look like a banished immortal. This aura reminded Jiu Sheng of her master.

Princess Yi Le immediately changed her arrogant and despotic demeanor into a pure and innocent one." Royal Brother, it's her and her sister who pushed a vase at me and pushed me into the water. They even stole the jade pendant you gave me!" This is the first time I've been pushed into the river. I'm afraid I'll have nightmares every day after this humiliation. Royal brother must punish this kind of unruly person."

Princess Yi Le complained bitterly, and tears were about to fall from her delicate face. Jiu Sheng, who was watching from the side, could not help but raise her eyebrows in pain. No wonder the Third Prince favored her so much. If it were her, she would also want to favor such a delicate little girl.

The Third Prince's expression didn't change when he heard Princess Yi Le's complaints. He covered his face and coughed lightly. With Princess Yi Le's help, he sat down on the right seat." Xiao Yun, go ahead." Xiao Yun, who was following behind the Third Prince, immediately added," I've investigated. The woman in front of me is the dancing prostitute of Raincloud Pavilion, Jiu Sheng. She was the one who pushed the princess into the river. The one who pushed the vase was the rough envoy of Raincloud Pavilion, Liu Yi. Miss Jiusheng had brought it with her when she sold it to Raincloud Pavilion. However, Miss Liu Yi had accidentally pushed the vase. She had been severely injured by Princess Yi Le's whip, which was why Miss Jiusheng had pushed the princess into the river. As for the jade pendant that the princess had lost, I've searched it, but I haven't found it yet, but... I haven't searched Miss Jiusheng yet."

The Third Prince lifted the tea on the tea table and sipped. He frowned and said," Heavily injured? Did the princess beat him up?"

Princess Yi Le couldn't keep her face up. She knew that she would be lectured sooner or later." Royal Brother, I just wanted to whip her to vent my anger. I didn't expect that I would hit her neck directly, causing that unruly person to be seriously injured. Royal Brother, you know that I've always been able to control my size. It's just that this is really a mistake." He turned to Xiao Yun." Xiao Yun! You did it on purpose! We clearly agreed not to mention this matter!"

Xiao Yun bowed to the princess without changing her expression.

Jiu Sheng, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke. She endured the pain in her body and said sternly," Mistake? My sister's mistake was to smash the vase on your head, but you caused her to be seriously injured. Her life and death are unknown!"

"Then you stole my jade pendant! At the end of the day, this is what you lowlifes are like, and you still have the face to talk back! Why don't you see that you're kneeling in my Imperial Brother's residence!"

Jiu Sheng knew that she couldn't reason with him." Then come and search me yourself."

Princess Yi Le pursed her lips and crossed her arms arrogantly." You're from the streets. I can't even look at you, let alone touch you."

" Forget it. Le, stop it. Ask Yue Nu to bring this girl down for a body search. If she's not here, you must have lost her carelessly. Don't accuse her wrongly. As for how she offended you, you can do whatever you want with this girl as long as she doesn't kill anyone." The Third Prince held his forehead and was too lazy to even raise his eyebrows." But, why did you go to that alley alone? Even if you hide your identity, someone will recognize you. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at?"

Yi Le grabbed the Third Prince's sleeves and said coquettishly," I was just curious and went over to take a look. Thank you for your protection, Imperial Brother. Don't worry, if she didn't steal my jade pendant, I will definitely punish her lightly and let these unruly people go."

The Third Prince didn't care about Yi Le's coquettish behavior. He knew that even if he said it a hundred times, it would still be the same. If she really listened to him, today's incident wouldn't have happened." Xiao Yun, take some people and search the roads that the princess walked on today, especially the river."

Xiao Yun received the order, bowed, and left.

Jiu Sheng lowered her head and didn't say a word. She allowed the Moon Slave to pull her up. It seemed that she would still fall into the hands of this unruly princess. Judging by her personality, she would probably not be given a light punishment like she had said.

Slave Yue led her into a room, leaving only Slave Yue and Jiu Sheng in the room. Slave Yue untied the rope and began to search her body, which was bleeding profusely. Not long after, he took out a small medicine bottle from her sleeve.

" What's this?" Yue Nu asked Jiu Sheng. Don't try to play any tricks with poison or plot."

Jiu Sheng smiled bitterly." You'll know if it's a scheme or not when you open it."

Moon Slave stared at Jiu Sheng hesitantly, then opened the bottle.

Jiu Sheng was so fast that before Moon Slave could react, she had already lifted his hand and shoved the pill into his mouth. Moon Slave had not expected this and had already swallowed the pill. Moon Slave turned around and struck twice, but Jiu Sheng dodged one of his palms. However, Jiu Sheng was too injured and could not move fast enough. She took the second blow and flew to the ground.

Although Jiu Sheng could no longer get up and had even spat out a mouthful of blood, she still leaned back smugly." You guessed it right. It was a conspiracy."

Slave Yue patted his chest and wanted to vomit the pill out, but it was too late. He said with a bitter face," What did you give me?"

"Poison, is there a need to ask? Tomorrow, your skin will start to break out in rashes. A week later, your skin will start to fester, and then you will die. I am the only one who has the antidote. I wonder if they want my life or yours more."

Jiu Sheng sighed. She had wanted to give the medicine to the princess, but she didn't have the chance to do so. At this moment, she was still unsure. What if the princess didn't care about the maid's life at all and only wanted to torture her and Liu Yi to death here?

The Moon Slave felt as if his whole body was festering. He couldn't help but curse," Just you wait, you lowly commoner. The princess will teach you a lesson sooner or later!"

After saying that, he quickly left and locked the door.
