Chapter 364: Fragmented Inch by Inch

Translator: 549690339

The nannies were extraordinarily crude and vicious, tying Jiang Ning up tightly and plugging her mouth shut before carrying her to Ms. Ma’s courtyard.

Ignoring the Crown Prince, Ms. Ma ordered that the courtyard doors be locked tightly, and after prohibiting anyone from entering or leaving, she instructed the strongest nanny by her side to grab a stick and come with her to teach Jiang Ning a lesson.

Jiang Ning was thrown into an empty room.

Even though Jiang Ning was bound and gagged, her hair disheveled, she was still beautiful when Ms. Ma walked in to inspect her.

So beautiful it was infuriating.

The more beautiful she was, the more hatred boiled in Ms. Ma’s heart. “Princess Consort of Yu, you really don’t know what’s good for you. With Prince Yu fallen so low, what can you hope for? I had thought, at worst, the Crown Prince simply coveted your beauty,… once he had you, he would just throw you away like his other consorts. But who knew, the Crown Prince has developed real feelings for you. You ungrateful thing, if you had simply obeyed, would there be all this trouble?” Jiang Ning sat in the corner, unable to move or speak.

Ms. Ma rushed over and slapped her, shouting, “You vixen! Acting against grace! You defying him is one thing, but you even dare to conspire against our East Palace, resulting in the Crown Prince being locked up and me losing face! You deserve to die!”

She stepped on Jiang Ning’s leg.

Jiang Ning groaned.

“Oh, does it hurt?” Ms. Ma, as if suddenly having discovered the most amusing game, snatched the stick from a nanny’s hand and with a gruesome smile said, “I almost forgot, you’re crippled. A damned cripple, why? Why does everyone like you? You even dare to stir up trouble between me and the prince and made me lose face in front of His Majesty! Is it the left leg that you’re crippled in?”

She lifted the stick, pointed it at Jiang Ning’s left leg, and brought it down hard

Crack!

It was the sound of bones breaking.

Jiang Ning trembled all over, in so much pain she wished for death. But with her mouth plugged up, she couldn’t make a sound.

Seeing Jiang Ning like this only excited Ms. Ma more. She lifted the stick and struck again.

Thump thump thump!

Over and over, more than ten times.

Jiang Ning, drenched in sweat, laid on the ground motionless.

“Is she dead?” gasped Ms. Ma, leaning on the stick.

A nanny stepped forward, placing her hand under Jiang Ning’s nose, “Princess Consort, she is still alive, she’s just passed out.”

“This wily vixen, she’s rather resilient. She won’t die even after all this.

Ms. Ma discarded the stick, “Her leg must be completely ruined now, right?”

The nanny chuckled, “It was already ruined, but she could still hobble a few steps with a crutch. Now, she’ll probably have to lay in bed for the rest of her life. Princess Consort, you have tortured her for some time, why not just bury her? To avoid any complications.”

“What complications?” Ms. Ma snapped. “I’ve only just discovered the pleasure of tormenting this wench. I can’t bear to kill her now. I want her to live so that I can torture her slowly.”

“But…”

“Shut your mouth. In here, who’s the master, who makes the decisions, you or I?”

“Of course, you are the master, Princess Consort.” The nanny replied in a low voice, “But, it’s almost dawn, we should see how the Crown Prince is doing.”

Upon hearing the nanny, Ms. Ma remembered.

Because she stopped him, the Crown Prince hadn’t seen the Imperial Physician after being injured.

“I’ll go check.” Ms. Ma headed towards the door. “Take good care of her. If she escapes, you’ll have me to answer to.”

The nanny said, “She’s in such a state, where could she run to? Her bones must be shattered.”

“That’s because you don’t know what she’s capable of!” Ms.. Ma coldly remarked, “Most importantly, do not let anyone find out she is here! Let them think she died at the Immortal-view Gate last night!”
