Afterward, the sound of a board striking flesh echoed into everyone's ears.
"My great general, do you agree with my decision this way?"
Only after Xiao Junhao was taken away did Emperor Qi Ming turn to speak to Jiang Hong.
Hearing Emperor Qi Ming's words, Jiang Hong lowered his head and whispered, "Your Majesty is wise."
In a place unseen by others, disappointment and a hint of mockery flashed in Jiang Hong's eyes.
The thirty boards were quickly done. When Xiao Junhao was brought back in, his back was covered in blood. Seeing this scene, surprise showed in Jiang Peihuan's eyes.
However, when she looked up, she caught Xiao Nanye winking at her.
Although Xiao Junhao was bloody all over, Jiang Peihuan didn't think it was fair. If the letter had been found in Jiang Hong's study today, it wouldn't have been a mere thirty boards.
With that thought, Jiang Peihuan's gaze on Xue Ru became even colder.
