In the Qin state royal palace, empress Rui who was accompanied by concubine Nuan was enjoying their warm tea.
Empress Rui estimated that currently concubine Ning must have been outside the territory of the Qin state as well as the Ming state.
"It seems, concubine Ning will get a little lesson outside the palace." Said empress Rui.
"What do you mean, your highness?" Asked concubine Nuan while putting her tea glass.
"If you look, it is likely that currently concubine Ning has been somewhere outside the territory of the two countries (the Qin state and the Ming state). Aren't there gonna be a lot of bandits or robbers?"
Concubine Nuan nodded "Her Majesty is right. But... If anything happens to concubine Ning out there, the noble emperor will definitely get into trouble from the Ning concubine's family and her supporters."
"You're right. Therefore, before they did what they wanted to do to concubine Ning, before they did, I ordered two great bodyguards to follow concubine Ning and those two bodyguards would prevent them from doing anything to concubine Ning out there."
"If it's like that, we can make concubine Ning's exit from the palace as proof, that she's already broken the palace's rules."
"Right, concubine Ning's family will definitely defend her, but without them knowing, we have already had evidence of embezzlement of most of the state income that concubine Ning's father had already done, which the eldest daughter gave us."
"The day they defended concubine Ning, would be their last day inside this palace."
"Not just inside the palace, the noble will not spare the Ning concubine's family for the case, let alone the moment that the noble knows, if they are proven to collude in poisoning empress Yan first."
"Ning's concubine's family, that's hard to handle."
"Concubine Nuan, one day I want to go visit Empress Yan after this baby is born. Do you want to go with me?"
"Of course, your majesty, I already miss empress Yan so much."
Empress Rui nodded her head and smiled.
"Empress Yan, it will soon be over. We're all gonna start living happily together."
***
While the emperors Shun and Xia Lian An had already reached Ming country, concubine Ning who had secretly slipped out of Qin state using a horse she had bought, was still in the middle of the journey.
Concubine Ning who went alone did not know where to go, she lost track of emperor Shun's carriage that was walking so fast.
Currently concubine Ning was sitting under a tree to rest, because the weather today was quite hot. But he did not realize, if he was being watched by some people who had followed him since he came out of the last city he stopped.
"Truly s*alan! Why is the emperor's carriage so fast. And this horse, why is it going so slow." Grumpily concubine Ning while looking at the horse she rode in annoyance.
Sraaa
Concubine Ning heard a voice from behind the grass that was quite thick and tall, she then stood up to see who was behind the grass.
"What are you looking for, miss?"
Concubine Ning immediately turned around when she heard a male voice from the back of her body.
"Si... Who are you, and what do you want?"
Concubine Ning took a few steps back to see three men in simple clothes yet impressed like a group of bandits were in front of her.
"We were just travelers who happened to pass by, and we saw the lady alone sitting here. So we're approaching miss."
"You better go! Otherwise you will regret it!"
The unfamiliar men looked at each other and laughed together to see concubine Ning angry.
"Miss, it's not good to go alone in a place like this. We better accompany the journey, miss. How's it?"
"I don't need you, you better go!"
The three men were not afraid and laughed even more, as if they had found a new toy.
Feeling herself cornered, concubine Ning looked for a way so she could get away from that place. He then looked at his horse, intending to run away with it.
As the three men were laughing, concubine Ning walked over to her horse. But alas, the sound of her footsteps rang out and made the three men come to a realization that concubine Ning would run away.
"Miss, where are you going?" Said one of the men while blocking the path of concubine Ning.
"By your side, I am a palace concubine. How dare you guys to me!"
"Hahaha if you are the concubine of the palace, then I am the crown prince, miss. Ahaha!"
"Really, right. And I am an emperor hahaha."
Concubine Ning was so scared to see the three of them, all this time she had never met people like them.
"B*al! I have to get away from them. Now the emperor must have reached the Ming court and met the j*lang there."
Concubine Ning then took out her pocket of money that she had brought.
"I have a lot of money here, you can take it. But let me go." Uca concubine Ning on the three men.
"Miss, do you think that little money could be enough to eat the three of us for a week? Haha."
"Miss, just come with us. We'll keep the lady on the road well."
"Yes, miss."
"I told you, I'm a palace concubine. How brave of you to be so presumptuous of me!" Excited concubine Ning who was already unable to do anything more.
The three men stared at concubine Ning sharply, and one of them approached concubine Ning.
"You're just a lowly woman, how dare you yell at us!"
Plaque!
One loud slap made concubine Ning fall to the ground.
Concubine Ning held onto her cheek that had been slapped, at the corner of her left lip there was a bit of blood from the male slap earlier. And his stomach, which was still a little cramped, started to hurt again.
"If you still don't obey us, we will torture you before selling you to a slave house!"
Concubine Ning shook her head hearing the threat from them. Her tears flowed, and her body trembled violently. He recalled what Empress Yan had said before.
"You will experience things that are more painful and humiliating than anything I have ever experienced, concubine Ning."
(Royalty of Yan first)
Concubine Ning who remembered the words thought, if the three people in front of her were currently the man from empress Yan to harass her.
"You guys, you must be the one Qing Lian ordered to harm me. How dare you!" Concubine Ning said to the three men.
Those who did not know the meaning of concubine Ning's words looked at each other, but seeing concubine Ning's gaze on them was, making them dislike.
"How dare you look at us with such a look!"
"Let'sakh!" Shouted concubine Ning as one of the men pulled her hair until her head looked up.
"We've been kindly asking to groom you, but you won't. So don't blame us if we're going to accompany you rudely, miss." Said the man who pulled concubine Ning's hair.
Concubine Ning shook her head "No, let go of me. You'll regret doing anything to me!"
"Basic women don't know themselves!"
Plaque!
Again one slap darted on the cheek of concubine Ning.
Concubine Ning's body was thrown and fell on the ground. While the three people approached concubine Ning simultaneously.
Concubine Ning who saw them approaching, shook her head and crawled away from them.
"You'll be sorry for not following us, miss."
"Don't go you guys!"
Concubine Ning threw a stone at them.
The three men who were getting annoyed with concubine Ning, kicked concubine Ning's stomach, and, so that made concubine Ning scream very loudly and instantly she was unconscious because she could not endure the pain in her stomach.
