Back In Time (The Reincarnation of the Cruel Concubine)

The Punishment of Yang Jia Li

A shocking morning in the empress pavilion, as Commander Hao's entourage came this morning to arrest him. Who is not ketar-ketir, especially Yang Jia Li became the main suspect in the poisoning of the Queen Mother. Damnit damnit! Though he did not intend to poison the old woman, but rather himself who was hit by the stone.

Yang Jia Li was indeed mixing a little potion that could make people become sick to the stomach. But that's not in a lot of numbers either. Indeed, the old lady bangka base is susceptible to disease so she can not survive with it.

That poisonous berry, did it really happen? Why did the old woman eat only, and why did her maids not prevent. All of this was like toying with Yang Jia Li, when she should have been the one in control.

Yang Jia Li clenched his hands tightly, infuriatingly, so which one was right among all of these.

“I didn't do it, I couldn't have poisoned the queen mother. Why would I do it, if the plant was indeed in my pavilion courtyard, but I never gave it to the queen mother. I'm not crazy for giving poison to him.” Bela Yang Jia Li on herself.

“But, strong evidence is already in sight of Her Majesty The Empress.” Reply Commander Hao, ”Please describe it in the west hall, The Starting Emperor Zhou is already waiting for you there.”

“West hall? What evidence do you have?” annoyed by Yang Jia Li, he raised his tone to avoid being intimidated, Dayang Yue and the others were not helpful at all, they were just silent and confused.

“That poisonous berry plant thrives in your yard, many witnesses have said that the queen mother consumed it in the queen pavilion.”

“It wasn't my fault, blame the workers in my pavilion who don't work!”

That nyalang gaze never disappeared from the empress's sharp eyes, her face crimson withstanding anger and shame. “I never told her to eat berries or anything like that, one of the queen mother herself who was not careful.”

“Sorry, That Begins, according to the orders of the emperor, you must be arrested right now. You can explain that in the west hall later as a defense, we have to run errands.”

“No!”

“No, I don't want to!” reject Yang Jia Li.

Yang Jia Li so arrogantly raised his chin on Commander Hao and the few other soldiers assigned to capture him. The woman was still faithfully sitting on her throne and was unwilling to give herself up because she felt innocent.

“Sorry, Your Grace. But you must come because you have been proven guilty. We will use a rough way so you want to come to jail.” Said the commander.

Both Yang Jia Li's eyes are perfectly rounded, “How dare you! You're humbling me commander-in-chief!”

“Then from that you have to come in a good way.”

“No! No want!”

The commander was forced to use a rough way apparently, no matter if it was indeed the will of the empress. After all this was a direct order from the emperor to investigate and arrest Yang Jia Li if proven guilty, and the number one woman in the palace had been proven guilty.

Commander Hao gave the code to his subordinates to arrest the empress, inevitably he had to go to the prosecutor's office to stand trial. Although Yang Jia Li thrashed and shouted like a doormat, but the soldiers remained at their stance. As long as they don't hurt the empress then everything will be fine. Yang Jia Li was taken on a stretcher with a strict escort, the entourage was going towards the west hall to obtain a trial.

“Hey, loose! Let go of me, shit, it's not my fault, let go of me!”

“Lease! I can walk alone!”

“Sial, you guys don't have ears huh!”

The swearing oath from Yang Jia Li flowed smoothly cussing the soldiers who brought him too rude, it should be like this because otherwise then Yang Jia would have definitely run away. “You'll be right up to His Majesty, please don't trouble us more than this. You'll run away like that if we don't take you.”

“Sorry, Your Grace.”

The soldiers had no patience anymore, they forced the empress not to rebel again. There was no gentleness in their treatment, because Yang Jia Li always cursed them, biting, clawing, even spitting on their faces as a form of annoyance. Let the image of their hands imprint on the white Yang Jia Li, because the most important thing was that they could bring it into the western hall.

There were already other members of the empire, and the higher-ups of the empire. There was a satisfied face of Wu Li Mei that made her want to immediately kill the scheming concubine. Yang Jia Li pias, his face was a dead red withstanding embarrassment. This time he had truly been at the lowest point of his pride, feeling like he had been trampled on.

Eunuch Hao came, he read out the emperor's decision to try Yang Jia Li.

“Empress Yang Jia Li has been guilty of growing wild berries in your pavilion yard and causing the queen mother intoxication. As a form of accountability and punishment, you will be exiled in Mount Heng Shui for one or two years and the title of queen will be suspended.”

“No! I'm innocent!” reject Yang Jia Li.

“But the berry grows in the courtyard of your pavilion, you know that poisonous fruit should not be grown in the palace environment. It will harm everyone.” Said Wu Li Mei interfering.

“Shut up you Wu Li Mei!” angry Yang Jia Li. “I still do not want to be exiled because it is not my fault, who knows if there is a berry, is it wrong for the workers in my pavilion. Just dig up their heads to replace my fault, those who have been negligent, not me.”

“Don't wander, Your Majesty, this matter is clearly your fault.”

“Silent you are Wu Li Mei, your trash mouth is useless!”

The witnesses were brought in, inside that vast hall, Yang Jia Li sat in a guilty chair with both of his hands tied to the arm of the chair. The witnesses were the lady-in-waiting of the queen mother, the gardener of the queen's pavilion and several queen ladies-in-waiting. Shit, apparently they had conspired to get him punished.

With such a strong witness and evidence, Yang Jia Li was found guilty, “No Your Majesty, I am innocent, this is not my fault!” beg Yang Jia Li.

“I beg pardon me queen mother.”

“I beg you to give me mercy.”

Yang Jia Li had already let out a mainstay form of tears flowing profusely from his two eyes, sobbing for the sake of sobbing sounded so heartbreaking. But not for the imperial members who had memorized Yang Jia Li's temper, he had always been like that and always asked for mercy for the mistakes he made.

At a time like this the only person who could help Yang Jia Li was his powerful uncle, who else if not Yang Hong Hui, he said, the old man with a bulging stomach stood up from his seat after getting a sharp gaze from Yang Jia Li. How not because Hong Hui himself was one of the US cards of the empress, as the state higher-ups it was clear that his voice would be heard by the emperor. “Sorry to have sacked His Majesty the Emperor, but allow me to defend the empress. Because I don't see the error is on him.”

“Your Highness Empress Yang, did not even know if there were any wild and poisonous berries in her pavilion courtyard. If drawn again, this may be the omission of the palace gardener or the lady-in-waiting of the queen mother. So that the empress is not entirely at fault, she just does not know what happened Her Majesty.” Yang Hong Hui said.

“But still, he has poisoned the queen mother.” Answer Emperor Zhou. “So he should be given a penalty.”

“Yes, Your Majesty, but remind again the services of the empress in the empire is very much. Give him leniency for this negligence he did not do.”

“We beg, Your Majesty.”

The emperor's decision had been made, with Wu Li Mei eagerly awaiting its continuation. With full prayer and confidence that Yang Jia Li would be punished, Wu Li Mei gave the code to Eunuch Hao to convey the orders of Emperor Zhou.

“Well, the final decision that has been made by His Majesty the Emperor is that the empress will be exiled to the mountain monastery of Heng Shui for half a year and the title of queen will be temporarily suspended.”
