After Lord Gao finished speaking, he saw Xu Chongfeng still in shock, thinking he still didn't believe him, he added, "It's absolutely true. My brother-in-law said that a great fury was unleashed. Not even willing to wait till dawn, he immediately sent people to surround the Eldest Imperial Prince Mansion."
He tugged at Xu Chongfeng's sleeve and asked, "Do you know who was flogged to death in the palace last night?"
"Who, who?" Xu Chongfeng was most afraid he might die in the Capital. His voice trembled as he asked.
Lord Gao said, "It was the Eldest Imperial Prince's own mother, Princess Consort Mei."
"What!" Xu Chongfeng's eyes rolled back, nearly fainting from fright.
Lord Gao quickly supported him, frowned, and said, "Brother Xu, are you feeling unwell?"
Xu Chongfeng nodded, "Mm, too tired these days, and got caught in the rain, my health isn't good."
Can't say he was scared into rolling his eyes by the Emperor beating Princess Consort Mei to death?
