Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
However, the Ji family and Consort Yi had lost so many men of sacrifice.
Presumably, in the next few years, they would not be as arrogant as before. They could send people to kill whoever they wanted in the past. Now they had to tread on thin ice.
The Ji family did have the western army, but they were different from the men of sacrifice they had trained since they were young.
Since the overall situation had been decided, it would be fine even if he, the General, was not in the military camp for a day or two. Now that Xinyuan
County was very safe, Shao Shuting wanted to go to Locust Village to see his sister. He had not seen his sister for a long time. He also told his sister that the
Crown Prince was found, making his sister even happier.
However, he still had to be careful. Even if he went, he had to go secretly.
When he secretly arrived at Pingan Town, he was not in a hurry to go to Locust Village. Instead, he waited until the sky was about to turn dark before coming to Locust Village.
When they arrived at Locust Village, the sky was already dark.
When he was in Locust Village, he wandered around Locust Village for a while.
At first, he did not enter Locust Village immediately. Instead, he circled around Locust Village.
Moreover, when he was recuperating at Xue Dagui’s house, the two little devils were already building a new house. He naturally knew where their new house was.
Wasn’t it right next door to Xue Dagui’s house?
When he arrived at the back of his sister’s house from the side without making a sound, he walked to the side of the wall and jumped into the courtyard.
It had been dark for a while now, but his sister was still awake.
His sister’s complexion was much better than when he first sent her here. She was also more cheerful, giving him the illusion that his sister was still the same sister that was carefree at home as a little girl.
His sister was surprised to see him when he showed up.
When he whispered that her son had already done a blood test, acknowledged his position, was safe, and that even the Empress Dowager had sent people back to protect him, his sister giggled in joy.
“Then, what about Ji Yi and her family? Has the Emperor punished them for their crimes yet?” Shao Youyue asked expectantly.
Since Ji Yi had been found and he had promised to point fingers at Consort Yi and the Ji family, the Emperor would definitely punish them!
“About that…” Shao Shuting hesitated for a moment, but he still told his sister the truth. “Ji Yi passed away before he even met the Emperor.”
“What?!” Shao Youyue was stunned for a moment. Then, her eyes instantly turned red, but she smiled. “So, that means he still won’t believe me, right? He still didn’t punish Ji Yi and her family, right?”
Shao Shuting was silent for a moment before nodding his head. Her assumption was correct.
Shao Shuting had mixed feelings about this Emperor. He was benevolent and had the people in his heart. He was not a bad Emperor at all, but sometimes, he really did not agree with his actions.
“Tell me honestly. What kind of punishment did Ji Yi receive?” Shao Youyue smiled, but her eyes reddened even more.
Shao Shuting didn’t want to say it, but his sister clearly wanted to know. He sighed and said simply, “An eye was dug out, an ear was dug out, and a foot was chopped off.”
Shao Youyue’s tears still fell from her eyes. She smiled and said, “Therefore, Ji
Yi suffered a fate worse than the Yi family. My son is still in danger… I am still in danger… The Yi family will always be there…”
“H-hey…” Shao Shuting shook his head. He wanted to say that it wasn’t like that, but he didn’t know how to speak up for Emperor Hao.
After all, if Emperor Hao had punished Consort Yi and the Ji family, they would not have been pushed in this direction..
