Dressed as the Cannon Fodder Ex-Wife of the Regent Chapter 66: No room for error
In the Jiuchen Hall, Queen Mother Guo was sitting on the throne, looking coldly at the girl who was pinned to the ground.
"Tell me, who do you belong to? Why do you want to seduce the emperor?"
Wen Ruyi's eyes widened in disbelief.
She just got up this morning, and a group of palace maids suddenly broke into her room and brought her here.
"I, I don't know, I didn't..." She shook her head desperately in denial, looking embarrassed and pitiful.
But Empress Dowager Guo was unmoved and said coldly: "It seems that you won't be able to do it if I don't torture you. Come here, put on the stick!"
Soon, a palace maid came over with a stick.
Wen Ruyi's eyes widened and she struggled desperately, but she was no match for their strength. After a while, her fingers were wrapped on the clamping stick, and the palace maids on both sides pulled out hard.
"Ah——"
Wen Ruyi screamed, and large beads of sweat fell from her forehead.
When Gu Heng came in, he saw this scene.
"Stop!" He shouted, stepped forward and kicked several palace maids away, and then helped Wen Ruyi, who was lying on the ground with a pale face, up.
"Your Majesty, what are you doing?" Queen Mother Guo was furious.
"I just want to ask my mother, what do you want to do?" Gu Heng looked up at her, "Liu'er is just a weak girl. She is still injured and doesn't remember anything, but you Did she use torture?"
Empress Dowager Guo looked at him in shock and anger.
"You actually questioned the Ai family for such a lowly servant?"
Hearing this, Gu Heng pursed his lower lip and softened his tone, "I just don't want my mother to torture Liu'er indiscriminately. She is so innocent and pitiful..."
Queen Mother Guo was so angry that her heart was heaving and she sneered, "The Ai family thinks you have been seduced by this foxy girl."
Gu Heng looked at her in surprise, "Why is the Queen Mother speaking so harshly? Liu'er was kind to Erchen for saving her life. The Erchen brought her back to the palace just to repay her kindness. How could you, Queen Mother? Say something like that?"
"Life-saving grace?" Queen Mother Guo looked at him in disbelief, "As an emperor, how can you be so gullible to others?"
Gu Heng said: "The emperor also knows about this matter. If you have any objections, you can ask the emperor." As a last resort, he had to move out of Gu Linchao.
Gu Linchao?
Empress Dowager Guo was stunned for a moment, "What does this matter have to do with your imperial uncle?" Her tone softened a lot.
Gu Heng had no choice but to tell her about yesterday's assassination.
"...it was too late to return to the palace last night, so I didn't inform you. Xiao Duzi beside him died trying to save him, and he ran all the way to the house outside Wenjiazhuangzi. At that time, because of his serious injuries, he fainted. Fortunately, Liu'er rescued him, otherwise he might not be able to stand in front of his mother alive today."
After hearing this, Queen Mother Guo was very frightened, and when she looked at Liu'er's face, she didn't look so ugly.
She got down from her seat, "Fortunately, nothing happened to you this time. Don't be willful next time. If you want to leave the palace, you have to tell the Aijia and your uncle to arrange the manpower. You Leave the palace again."
Hearing this, Gu Heng felt disgusted in his heart, "My son is no longer a child."
Empress Dowager Guo said with a straight face, "But you are the emperor, and there is no room for any mistakes in your safety."
Gu Heng was already tired of hearing these words, but at this time, he didn't want to argue with her anymore, so he said: "I understand. Liu'er is injured. Erchen will take her back to the house first." Then he hugged Wen Ruyi horizontally.
