Shui Qingyan did not kneel because she did not have the will to kneel at all. And the reason why Chu Chen did not kneel was because Chu Chen had been pardoned due to illness.

When the Noble Consort Qiao left, all the officials stood up.

A guard came in front of Shui Qingyan, "Fourth Miss, after you."

"Fourth Miss' body is weak. I'm afraid she won't be able to withstand these three lashes." Zhao Zhilan sighed, her voice filled with regret. "I hope that the imperial concubine won't come back halfway, and cry while hugging the corpse of my future daughter-in-law."

"Doctor Little Zhao is right." Liu Changqing immediately nodded.

The corner of the mouths of the guards who were taking Shui Qingyan away twitched.

Shui Qingyan smirked: "Three whips, shouldn't die yet."

"Fourth Miss, you won't be able to escape this physical pain, but don't worry, Fourth Miss." The moment the guard spoke, it could be considered as giving Zhao Zhilan and Liu Changqing face.

"If you were to cry a little louder later, maybe royal father would reward you with something delicious to nourish your body." Yun Sheng laughed as he spoke, his tone void of worry for Shui Qingyan.

"Thank you Seventh Prince for the kind reminder, I will definitely scream a little painfully later." Shui Qingyan raised his eyebrows.

"Fourth Miss, please." The guard made a gesture of invitation.

"Please lead the way." Shui Qingyan nodded.

The guard knew that Shui Qingyan could not see, and immediately walked in front of Shui Qingyan. Shui Qingyan followed the guard's footsteps and walked out step by step.

All of the officials were originally anxious to return home to eat dinner, but they all followed Shui Qingyan out at the same time.

Outside the throne room, the punishment bench had already been prepared, and the long whip with unique characteristics had already been prepared as well.

Shui Qingyan climbed up onto the chair.

The guard who had been caning raised his whip high up. The noon sun was shining on the whip, and everyone could faintly see the tiny barbs reflecting the light from the whip.

As the whip fell, Shui Qingyan fiercely bit her arm. She did not expect it to be in such pain.

However, all the officials sucked in a breath of cold air, and a dark red color seeped through Shui Qingyan's bright red clothes from her back to her buttocks.

Seeing that, Chu Chen raised his foot and walked towards Imperial Study.

Prince Chu looked at Chu Chen's expressionless face and raised his eyebrows. His son should have left the imperial court right after he left.

The Doctor Little Zhao saw that Chu Chen was heading towards the Imperial Study, so he elbowed his father on the arm and whispered: "The Prince Chu has gone to the Imperial Study, are you not going to take the pulse of the Prince Chu? Your Majesty is waiting at the Imperial Study. "

Doctor Senior Zhao looked at Shui Qingyan's painful expression and shook his head: "These three whips, to a weak woman like Fourth Miss, is not light. I'll go to the Imperial Study first. If you send someone to tell your sister to prepare something, the emperor will probably send her to look at Fourth Miss's injuries. "

"Got it, got it." Zhao Zhilan waved her hands, and then stared at the whip that was raised up high again.

With a swoosh, the whip fell again, and Shui Qingyan's nails sunk into his flesh. She felt the tiny barb of the whip scrape the flesh from her back.

Yun Sheng could not help but frown when he saw Shui Qingyan's pained look.

All the ministers gasped.

Doctor Senior Zhao glanced at Shui Qingyan with sympathy in his eyes. Finally, he shook his head and walked towards Imperial Study.

The long whip was raised again. With a whoosh, the whip fell again, causing Shui Qingyan's entire body to spasm before slowly loosening her grip. On her arm, two rows of teeth marks could clearly be seen under the red cloth.

The corner of Liu Changqing's eyes moistened. As he turned to leave, he lifted his hand to wipe the tears at the corner of his eyes.

"Fourth Miss, please get up." At this time, the supervising Eunuch Shou walked over, this old servant will send you back to your residence.

Shui Qingyan laughed, then raised her body and tried to get up, but she lost all her strength and fainted.

"Fourth Miss!" Eunuch Shou was shocked.

Zhao Zhilan rushed over to Shui Qingyan's side and checked her pulse, "Fourth Miss is too weak, she is fine." With that, Zhao Zhilan straightened her body and clapped her hands.

Yuxin Palace.

Gong'e walked in hastily. At this moment, Noble Consort Qiao was writing something in front of the table, and upon hearing the sound of hurried footsteps, he frowned.

"Imperial Concubine, Fourth Miss fainted from the beating." Upon seeing Noble Consort Qiao, Gong'e first bowed, then said anxiously.

"What!" Noble Consort Qiao opened his eyes and quickly put down the brush in her hand. "Quick, quick …" Before she could finish speaking, Noble Consort Qiao's eyes went wide and she fainted.

"Empress, Empress." The Noble Consort Qiao Palace Mistress quickly went over to help the Noble Consort Qiao.

The little Fairy didn't know what to do.

"Why are you still cold? Why aren't you calling the female Imperial Physician over? The Imperial Concubine must have been worried about Fourth Miss, so she fainted!" Aunt Tang looked at the little palace with a frown.

Xiao Gong'e immediately replied: "Aunt Tang is right, this servant will go and get the national doctor." With that, he turned and hurried in the direction of State Medical Bureau.

After Gong'e left, the Noble Consort Qiao who was being supported by the Aunt Tang slowly opened her eyes. There was not a single shred of concern for Shui Qingyan in her eyes, nor did she seem to have any signs of burning her heart.

"Empress, hurry up and lie down on the daoist couch." Aunt Tang helped Noble Consort Qiao up, "There is only one female national doctor in the palace, Fourth Miss' back is injured, other than the female national doctor, no one else is suitable to ask."

Noble Consort Qiao stroked the pearl hairpin on her head and gracefully walked to the side of the bed. "Your Majesty, these three whips are really ruthless." As she said that, her lips slowly curled up into a mocking smile.

"Since the opening of the Yun Chao, there has not yet been a person who was given the whip to the daughter of a minister. The fourth miss' reputation is getting worse and worse." The Aunt Tang said as he laid the Noble Consort Qiao down.

"Only the more stinky she smells, the more reliant she will be on the Jadesnow Mandarin Duck Pendant, and the more reliant she will be on me." "The female national doctor is here, so Shui Yiyuan fainted. I want to see how long her wound can take."

"Yes, Your Highness." When the Aunt Tang heard this, he could not help but laugh, "The Fourth Miss has always been pampered since childhood and her skin and flesh are extremely tender. If they were to be treated after a couple of hours, it might not be easy to heal her scar."

Noble Consort Qiao's lips curled up in a cold smile. "Go to the Rainwater Pavilion."

"What does the Empress mean?" Aunt Tang was a little doubtful.

"Hurry back and wait for Doctor Jiang at the door." Noble Consort Qiao frowned, she had a plan in her mind.

Aunt Tang was enlightened: "Oh, this servant understands. This servant will do it right away."

Noble Consort Qiao smiled sarcastically. She wanted everyone to think that her love for Shui Qingyan surpassed that of her own daughter.

Not long after, the news of Noble Consort Qiao fainting due to Fourth Miss Shui spread throughout the entire palace. Everyone said that Shui Qingyan was really the treasure in the Noble Consort Qiao's hands.

Imperial Study.

Yun Lancang sat at the back of the desk, and Chu Chen sat at the bottom. The Doctor Senior Zhao was currently taking his pulse.

After checking his pulse, he removed his hand from Chu Chen's wrist. Then, he looked at Chu Chen with pity in his eyes, as he bowed to Shui Yiyuan and said, "Your Majesty, Prince Chu's poison has already invaded my lungs.

Chu Chen tidied up his own sleeves, without showing any expression on his face, as if what Doctor Senior Zhao was saying were all other people's matters.

Yun Lancang glanced at Chu Chen, then looked at Doctor Senior Zhao, "Is there really no cure?"

"Teacher may have a method, but this humble subject really has no solution." Doctor Senior Zhao sighed.

Yun Lancang frowned slightly, then looked at Chu Chen again. "Prince Chu Palace only has your bloodline, if there's anyone who wishes to marry you, we will definitely grant that wish."

"Thank you, your majesty. This humble subject has no other intentions." Chu Chen immediately bowed.

"Yes." Yun Lancang nodded, "You can go back for now."

"This humble official will take his leave." Chu Chen bowed, then withdrew his Imperial Study.

When he was about to leave, he happened to see a white-faced, red-lipped Eunuch Bai rushing over urgently.

"prince is leaving the palace." Seeing Chu Chen coming out from the Imperial Study, the Eunuch Bai smiled and greeted him.

"Yes." Chu Chen nodded, but his pace slowed down.

After missing Chu Chen, Eunuch Bai immediately entered the Imperial Study.

When the Eunuch Bai entered and saw that the Doctor Senior Zhao was present, he hesitated for a moment before speaking in a gentle tone, "Your Majesty, Fourth Miss fainted."

Yun Lancang's entire body froze, his brows knitted: "The three whips are not light, immediately call the female national doctor to go to the Shui’s Marion."

Eunuch Bai said with a stiff expression, "The female national doctor went to the Yuxin Palace."

"He went to the Yuxin Palace?" Yun Lancang's tone carried a faint trace of anger.

"When the Imperial Concubine heard that the Fourth Miss had fainted, she fainted as well. This servant had just come over from the Yuxin Palace, and the Empress' heart seemed to have hurt.

Yun Lancang slapped the desk, wanting to say something, but he was unable to speak. His face was red as he bellowed: Immediately send someone to the State Medical Bureau, inform everyone to go and treat Imperial Concubine immediately. After Imperial Concubine wakes up, immediately send the female doctor to the Shui’s Marion.
