章節 439: Chapter 439 The Worst Thing in a Relationship is no Response_1

The maid had been feigning fear before, screaming and shouting pretentiously, but now that she was truly going to be beaten, she hadn't even been struck by a board yet when she began to cry out of fear.

The King of Eternal Victory was coming to watch, even as the Imperial Consort's personal Serverfly, those in the Punishment Yard dared not beat her lightly. They struck her hard and fast, making the maid scream for her parents and cry to the heavens and earth to no avail.

An Jing and Xiao Changyi had taken a walk together to the Punishment Yard, yet they did not actually enter it, and instead walked around it, taking another route back to Fenghua Palace.

Consort Yu, upon learning that An Jing and Xiao Changyi hadn't actually entered the Punishment Yard and that her personal Serverfly had been beaten to within an inch of her life, was even more furious, grinding her teeth with greater intensity.
