Chapter 2272: Father-in-law calls us gold slaves

Sudden.

From the palace road not far away, there were cries of begging for mercy.

"Elder-in-law, please don't beat me, the slaves don't dare to run away anymore."

"Heh, brat, it's your good fortune to serve His Highness the Crown Prince. You still want to run away. You really deserve to be beaten to death. Keep fighting!"

The screams continued.

Gu Nuoer was afraid of scaring Ling Qingge, she wanted Liu Liu to take Ling Qingge away first, and then she went to see what was going on.

However, Ling Qingge just listened for a while with a dazed expression, then immediately stood up and walked towards the palace road.

"Hey! Qingge!" Gu Nuoer followed immediately.

When they approached, they found the little palace maid who was beaten on the ground, wearing ragged clothes and bruised all over her body.

The two young eunuchs listened to what a big potbellied **** said, and whipped her continuously.

Ling Qingge was in a hurry, but couldn't speak.

Gu Nuo'er understood, pulled her behind her, and then reprimanded her, "Stop."

The fat **** rolled his eyes.

He wanted to see who was so short-sighted and dared to meddle in his affairs.

However, when he saw Gu Nuoer's face, his knees softened and he knelt down with a plop.

"The servant sees Princess Qianlizun. I don't know that the princess is here. The servant didn't intend to disturb. The princess forgives me!"

Gu Nuoer looked at the curled up maid.

She frowned and asked, "What did this person do wrong? Why did you beat her?"

The **** knelt on the ground and explained with an apologetic smile: "This person is a lowly slave from the Eastern Palace. She was supposed to be guarded, but she tried to escape, so the slave is asking someone to punish her."

Ling Qingge was behind Gu Nuo'er, tugging on her sleeves, still trembling slightly.

Gu Nuoer was suddenly surprised.

She looked at the injured maid again, and saw her face was wounded, her eyes were terrified.

Gu Nuo'er said in a deep voice: "You beat me just now, leave this court lady to me, you can go."

The fat **** was surprised: "This? I'm afraid it's not..."

"Nothing? Could it be that what I said doesn't work? Or does it mean that if I want a court lady, I must get the crown prince's consent?"

Gu Nuoer asked solemnly.

The **** was so frightened that he waved his hands again and again: "Of course Her Royal Highness has the final say, the slave will go back and return to order."

He took the two young eunuchs with him and left in a gloomy manner.

Gu Nuoer said to Liu Liu: "Help her up."

Knowing that she was rescued by Gu Nuoer, the court lady quickly kowtowed desperately: "Thank you princess for saving my life!"

Gu Nuo'er couldn't help asking: "They almost beat you to death, and you were demoted to a lowly slave, but what did you do wrong?"

The maid lowered her head and sobbed: "This servant did not make a mistake, but escaped because she didn't want to be locked in the dungeon forever."

"But if we leave without the consent of His Royal Highness, we will be beaten."

Gu Nuo'er was even more confused: "You? Besides you, there are other court ladies like you locked up in the East Palace dungeon?"

The maid nodded: "There are about thirty people, and the one just now is the father-in-law who disciplined us."

"He said that if His Royal Highness needs it, he will arrange for us to go out. If there is no need, he will stay in the dungeon forever, living worse than a mouse."

Speaking of this, she cried again.

Ling Qingge reacted even more violently, she raised the hand she pierced to Gu Nuoer.

As if to remind Gu Nuoer of something.

Gu Nuo'er was slightly confused, and after thinking for a while, she asked the maid, "What's your name?"

"The slaves don't have names, but the father-in-law calls all of us gold slaves."
