Chapter 334: Discovering a Scarecrow Full of Needles
Just as Prince Rui was about to push open the door of the main house, he stopped in his tracks when he heard Concubine Yin's crazy laughter and cursing from inside.
"Fang Qingge, I curse you to go to hell and never rest in peace. I will burn you, the substitute of the scarecrow.
I will torture you like oil boiling in a raging fire day and night. Binghua, bring me a fire starter."
Yin Ruyi laughed wildly and opened the door, then saw Prince Rui standing at the door with a sullen face, glaring at her.
"King? Your Majesty?"
Yin Ruyi was still holding a scarecrow covered with needles in her hand, and was so frightened by the sudden arrival of King Rui that she forgot to hide it.
*
"What's that in your hand?"
King Rui roared.
"Ah? No? Nothing!"
Yin Ruyi screamed and realized what was in her hand. She hurriedly tried to hide it but it was too late.
King Rui stretched out his hand and snatched it away. With a "hiss", his finger was pierced by the sharp needle on the scarecrow without any preparation.
Blood drops suddenly appeared and dripped onto the ground.
The young eunuch behind him was startled.
"Your Majesty, your hand. I will quickly apply medicine and bandage it for you."
"Go down!"
Prince Rui spoke in a stern voice, which frightened Eunuch Dongzi so much that he took a few steps back and dared not say anything more.
*
Liang Hengrui looked at the scarecrow in his hand.
Fang Qingge's name and her birth date were prominently written on it, and needles were stuck all over the characters.
King Rui understood clearly that Yin Ruyi was secretly practicing witchcraft to curse people to death!
He immediately flew into a rage, raised his thick booted foot and fiercely kicked Yin Ruyi's delicate body.
"Ahhhh..."
There was a long, piercing scream, and Yin Ruyi's body was kicked out.
After landing with a heavy thump, he rolled forward a few times out of inertia, and his head hit the legs of the dressing table.
Blood started to flow from his forehead.
Yin Ruyi's face turned pale with pain and tears were streaming down her face. The pain in her head was no match for the pain in her stomach. She pressed her hands hard on her abdomen and her whole body began to tremble.
*
"Get out of here!" King Rui roared.
"Prince? Prince!" She wiped the blood from her forehead that had flowed into her eyes with her hand. The severe pain in her body made Yin Ruyi bite her lips tightly, forcing herself to wake up.
She knelt on the ground crying and begged for mercy.
"Your Majesty, I was wrong. Please forgive me. Please forgive me?"
"Forgive you? You have already cursed Fang Qingge to death, how can I forgive you?"
"No, no, I didn't curse her to death. She didn't."
Yin Ruyi cried so hard that her snot and tears mixed with blood made her face look hideously ugly.
*
Prince Rui looked at Yin Ruyi crawling at his feet like a dog and felt so disgusted that he didn't want to look at her anymore.
"I'm so ashamed to find someone as bold as you in my palace.
How dare you secretly practice witchcraft in the palace? Do you really think your life is too long?"
"My Lord, my Lord, please spare me. No, I don't want to die. My Lord, I was wrong, I was wrong!!
"My Lord..., I will be Fang Qingge from now on. Yes, that's right. If she dies, I will be her. I will be Fang Qingge from now on. My Lord, please forgive me? Woo woo woo..."
Upon hearing this, Prince Rui's face turned pale and he became even more furious.
He walked over and kicked Yin Ruyi hard on the ground.
After screaming a few times "Ahhh...", Yin Ruyi rolled on the ground in pain.
"Shut up if you don't want to die."
After a loud shout, there was suddenly no movement in the room.
*
Yin Ruyi lay on the ground, biting her lower lip hard to endure the pain and not daring to make a sound, while the blood in her mouth kept oozing out. Add to that the blood still oozing from her forehead, dripping...
In a moment, Yin Ruyi's dress was stained with blood.
King Rui looked at her ugly appearance, closed his eyes, and cursed,
"Who the hell are you? You want to be her? You're not even one tenth as good as her, so what can you use to replace her?
Still want to curse her to death?
Let me tell you! She is still alive and well.
At this moment, Fang Qingge is following the prince's carriage on the way back to the capital!"
The words of King Rui hit Yin Ruyi like a heavy hammer. She seemed to be hallucinating. Her eyes widened.
What did she hear in a trance?
"What did you say? Fang Qingge is not dead? No, it's impossible, impossible."
Yin Ruyi kept shaking her head like a mad woman, muttering to herself like a madman.
Suddenly, she looked at King Rui and mustered up the courage to ask,
"Your Majesty? Your Majesty, you said Fang Qingge is not dead? Didn't she fall off a cliff? How could she survive when her carriage and horses were all broken?"
"Dead? Have you seen the body? Humph! You bitches all want to kill her. It's a pity that you will be disappointed in the end!"
Prince Rui spoke without thinking, forgetting that his good mother also wanted Fang Qingge's life.
He sat down on the chair, as if he was sulking, and said nothing more.
There was no movement in the room for a long time.
At this moment, Yin Ruyi felt as if all her internal organs were displaced after being kicked so hard by King Rui.
Beads of sweat rolled down her forehead and she felt cold all over.
A butterfly shadow appeared before her eyes, and she knew that if she continued like this, she would surely die.
She didn't want to die, she wanted to find a way to save herself. Yin Ruyi shook her head vigorously to clear her confused mind.
*
Eunuch Xiaodongzi outside the door quickly asked two maids to come in to serve tea, medicine and bandages.
Binghua and Linghua timidly carried the basin to pour water, filled the pot with tea, and brought the medicine. They did not dare to look at their master on the ground, and hurried out of the room.
At this moment, the icy atmosphere in the room made Yin Ruyi's heart sink to the bottom.
It turns out Fang Qingge is not dead. It turns out she is with the prince. She is really lucky!
Hehehe… no wonder Prince Rui has a weird expression on his face!
Yin Ruyi lowered her head, her mind full of thoughts.
*
Prince Rui picked up the teacup and took a sip, feeling indescribable emotions in his heart.
God knows how happy he was when he learned that Fang Qingge was not dead.
But the next second, he was shocked by the news that the prince and Concubine Fang Liangdi came back together in a carriage.
He held the teacup in his hand and slowly exerted force. With a "snap", the teacup broke into two pieces, and blood dripped from King Rui's palm again.
"Oh, Your Majesty? Your hand is bleeding again?"
Xiao Dongzi, who was about to wipe the blood off King Rui's finger, saw this and stepped forward with concern, wanting to check King Rui's hand.
With a "click", King Rui loosened his grip, and the broken teacup fell to the side of Yin Ruyi.
She knew she couldn't sit there and wait for death any longer.
*
Yin Ruyi crawled to the front of King Rui, rolled his eyes, and said word by word,
"Your Majesty, I have an idea. I will definitely help you get her."
King Rui looked at Xiao Dongzi bandaging his palm in a daze. Suddenly, he heard Yin Ruyi's words on the ground and pushed Xiao Dongzi away.
"What did you say?"
