Chapter 12\n
âYou better let me go! If you hurt me, you wonât be able to get out of Yunzhou alive!â Guan Yushan suffered a few more slaps and squealed like a pig in pain. Every time he opened his mouth, teeth that had been knocked loose fell out.\n
Shen Wan gave Guan Yushan no mercy. Not only did she beat his cheeks until they were swollen, but his face has deformed as well. Shen Wan showed that she has mastered controlling her strength. Sheâd been hurting him a lot, but she didnât make him faint.\n
When Shen Wan heard what Guan Yushan said, the palm she was about to use paused in midair, âI wonât be able to leave Yunzhou?â\n
âYes, if you want to walk out of Yunzhou safely, you better let me go. If you donât, my father wouldnât let you off.â Guan Yushan was scared, but even if heâs dealing with a princess, as long as he has the ability, couldnât he turn these men around her?\n
âHeyââ\n
He didnât expect Shen Wan would slap him again, âSo, your father is quite powerful. I never would have thought that Yunzhouâs governor would be so formidable that heâd even dare stop a princess.â\n
âMy father is more powerful than you think. A princess is nothing. Even if the emperor comes to Yunzhou, heâd need to behave well. If my father is unhappy with him, itâs simple enough to kill him secretly.â\n
Guan Yushan was afraid of being beaten, but also grew up accustomed to his domineering ways. The Yunzhou governor, Guan Yujing, supports him. No one would dare provoke and disobey him. Anything he wants will be immediately given.\n
This kind of slapping, other than his father, who would dare do this to him?\n
As Guan Yujing is the emperor of the land here, he also thought that he was the prince. There have been many court officials who went here, but in the end, no evidence has been found. What could they do other than go back to the Imperial City? Those who dared offend him and his father in the area will be miserable. He didnât think that a princess who fell on his fatherâs hands would land him in this situation. Now he was speaking so high and mighty, but it was only to bluff the other side. Itâll make sure that heâll have fewer hardships under them. Heâll then wait until his father finds them and turns the situation around.\n
âI donât believe that Yunzhouâs governor is as powerful as you say.â Shen Wan sneered. You canât threaten me. I can read you like a book. Itâs easy enough to see through your lie, âNow that youâve offended Her Highness, Iâm going to slap you a few hundred times, beat your arrogant head, and then hand you over to the other men here. After the punishment of castration, youâll be paraded for three days, and then beheaded as a warning to everyone about offending royalty. Her Highness cannot be involved by such a nasty person like you.â\n
Hearing that he was about to be castrated, Guan Yushan was so scared that his legs went weak and his pants showed signs of wet stains. Gradually, the wetness turned into a trail trickling down and spreading all over the place.\n
Shen Wan sneered, âLook at how pathetic you are. Youâre so scared that youâre peeing on the ground. Whatâs the difference between you and some common animal? Whatever you said must have been a bluff. Iâll be taking over for the princess and punish you myself. If this truth came out to the governor of Yunzhou, heâd have taken one step ahead of us and put you to death instantly. How could you be so stupid as to offend the princess?â\n
Shen Wan saw He Qingning frowning with a displeased look. Quickly with her clean left hand, she took out a clean handkerchief, âYour Highness, cover yourself first. Then you can watch me punish him with your own eyes so that your displeasure will be relieved!â\n
He Qingning: ââŚâ How rude!\n
Princessâ guards: ââŚâ Disgusting!\n
Guan Yushan thought that Shen Wan was only scaring him, but then she pulled out a knife in front of him and cut everything except his underwear. Even though his most important part was covered, he still felt the chill. The feeling of being cold from the crotch to the neck can only be understood by those who have experienced it.\n
âMy father really is powerful! If you hurt me even just a little, you will be tied up and divided into parts by my fatherâs five horses! I am my fatherâs only son!â Guan Yushan was almost shouting. His voice was trembling and his knees have not stopped shaking. The trickling stream below has risen to a flood and the sound of droppings could be heard. The whole room was filled with such a foul stench.\n
Shen Wan covered her nose. She saw He Qingning still standing by the side, but from the looks of her eyebrows, she could see that He Qingning could no longer bear it, âYour Highness, please go out first. Iâll clean him up. Itâll be fine.â\n
âNo, just hurry up. Itâs only a matter of raising your hand and bringing the knife down. Stop delaying with nonsense. A governorâs son offending royalty should be punished by the court. He even had the audacity to spout offense about the emperor earlier. He should be beheaded.â\n
âRight. Iâll listen to Your Highness. I wonât scare him any longer, Iâll just give him pain.â\n
Guan Yushan shouted loudly, âWait! Listen to me, listen to me! Iâll tell you about my fatherâs power.â\n
âYour Highness doesnât want to hear you talking nonsense, she asked me to cut you with a knife.â Shen Wan made a face, âHowever, if you have anything to say about the governor then weâll take them as your last words. Hurry up and say them.â\n
Guan Yushan did not leave anything behind. He breathlessly let everything out. He said that Guan Yujing had been rampant over the years and done evil things as long as he could get away with it. The guard on the side quickly took out a brush and paper to record it. With the personal statement of the governorâs son, it would be much easier to check things out.\n
He Qingning intends to execute the two, father and son, and she will also reveal all the injustices that have been going on over the years. Since this had to be done, itâll be done thoroughly. Sheâll uncover everything that can be found here, then give people an explanation. She didnât only come here to investigate Guan Yujing, but to also get the support of the people.\n
Once Guan Yushan finished speaking, he was almost out of energy.\n
Shen Wan looked at the thick stack of confessions, âGo, let him sign it.â\n
Guan Yushan thought he was temporarily saved. Now he only needs to wait for his father to show up. By then, none of these people will be able to escape. He wants them to survive and stay alive. While he was thinking about this, he felt a cold flash in front of him then he felt a sudden pain from below. He immediately fainted from the pain.\n
All he could think about was that she didnât have any honor! !\n
A treacherous villain.\n
Shen Wan carried a blood-stained knife, the blade constantly dripping blood on the ground. She gave the confession to the guards, âHere, go get blood of the confessor on it. Do you need me to do it?â\n
The guards shook in unison and one of the newer guards was pushed out. He held the papers in his hand, walked toward Guan Yushan to hover it in front of his legs, and paint it with blood. They used to think that this woman was only a little cold. They didnât expect her to be such a ruthless person. No wonder she was brought to the princessâ side. She used that knife so flawlessly.\n
He Qingning was also stunned for a time. She heard Shen Wan call for someone to bring a bowl of water and she watched her wash her hands with indifference. He Qingning walked over and handed her the handkerchief back, âWipe it off.â\n
âYes, Your Highness.â\n
In a place the guards could not see, she gave He Qingning a bright smile. He Qingning swayed due to this bright smile. It was totally different from the cold and merciless persona from before that cut off Guan Yushanâs penis. How many sides does this woman have?\n
âYour Highness, there is filth everywhere here. Letâs go out.â\n
He Qingning nodded gently. Seeing Shen Wan acting as if nothing was wrong and using a very skilled technique earlier, she asked in a low voice, âHow many times have you done this before?â\n
âWhat do you mean?â Now outside, Shen Wan tried to stop herself from making a curious expression.\n
He Qingning raised her hand and made a slash, âYou cut that thing with ease.â\n
âI havenât done it before, but I have imagined it many times in my head.â Shen Wan said honestly, âDo you think I cut it too fast? With a scum like Guan Yushan, maybe I should have slowly lopped it off with a blunt knife?â\n
âNo.â\n
He Qingning hurriedly hid her trembling hands in her sleeves, then inadvertently asked, âYou think of such messy things in your head.â\n
âWho allowed that guy to lust after Your Highness? One look at his eyes, and you know heâs got nothing good in his brain. I heard him earlier and I felt an opportunity come, so I could finally get at him.â\n
He Qingning listened to this with a tingling feeling, âNow that the evidence for executing Guan Yujing is sufficient, letâs go back. By the way, how is Xu?â\n
âSheâs fine. With you and me here, what can she do?â Shen Wan straightened her lips, âYour Highness is very concerned about Xu.â\n
Why didnât the little princess ask her if her hands hurt after using such a big knife to cut someone? Instead, she asked about Xuâs condition.\n
She knew Xuâs pitiful appearance looked really depressing. Was that it? It has attracted the princessâ attention. If she squeezed out some tears, the little princess may still whisper soft, comforting words to her.\n
He Qingning was sitting in the carriage and it didnât take long for her to feel that there was something wrong with Shen Wan. The other woman was waving her small hand in front of her. Although that hand was pretty, she kept on waving it in front of her. She remembered the scene where that small hand held a big knife and cut off a penis.\n
[188 almost fainted from laughter, âWan Wan, your little hands are unblemished and clean and you havenât suffered any injuries. If you wave your hand like this, the little princess wonât know what it means.â]\n
Shen Wan: âYou talk a lot. I just waved it casually. I didnât say anything to attract the little princessâ attention.â\n
188: Haha, I wonât say anymore.\n
Shen Wan was bored. 188 was right. Who thought that this Strength Pill was so effective? Not to mention holding a big knife with this small hand was nothing. Even if she chopped a brick with this small hand, there would be no damage, so itâs impossible to pretend to be weak. She was afraid that in this life, she couldnât pretend to be a weak girl. At least not in front of the little princess.\n
When Shen Wan withdrew her hand and lowered her head, He Qingning couldnât make out what she was murmuring. She said, âThe next time you do those things, just ask another person to do it. You are still a woman.â\n
Shen Wan heard this and was happy.\n
She smiled and said, âThis is nothing. I have great strength and cut fast.â\n
âIt makes your eyes and hands dirty.â He Qingning continued. Actually, she just didnât want Shen Wan to help her like this. As for the reason, she didnât want to understand why at this moment.\n
âLook, Your Highness, I can wash my eyes and Iâve already washed my hands clean.â Shen Wan stretched out her palms in front of He Qingning. âYour Highness, does it look clean?â\n
He Qingning patted her hand, âVery clean.â\n
âYou can leave these things to me in the future. Since Iâm in your hands now, Iâd have to put in a lot of effort if I want to stay under you. Your Highness, I will be the one to overcome difficulties for you in the future. You are the royal princess. You only need to say the word and I will do trivial things like this for you.â\n
He Qingning felt an indescribable feeling. The familiar warm current slowly flowed in her veins and reached the bottom of her heart. She took Shen Wanâs hand and said, âWeâll do this together.â\n
Shen Wan: Although the word âtogetherâ for them was different, she was still satisfied.\n
The carriage reached the gate of the prefectural government office and He Qingning was helped down by Shen Wan from the carriage. The guards escorted the unconscious Guan Yushan down attracting the attention of the people coming and going. The people who saw Guan Yushan looked very surprised.\n
Guan Yujing soon learned about this news. When he saw Guan Yushan comatose, with a bloodied crotch, almost dead, his eyes blazed red and he almost fainted in anger. Seeing He Qingning, he stepped forward and gave a bow, his expression obviously in conflict with the tone of his voice.\n
âYour Highness, dare I ask what has happened here?â\n
âLord Guan, this person has slighted me. He has been taken down by my people and was castrated on the spot.â He Qingning glanced at Guan Yujing faintly, her whole body covered in a majestic energy, âNot only that, he also made rude remarks aimed towards the emperor. I have ordered for him to be dragged through the streets for three days before being beheaded in public.â\n
Guan Yujing held his anger back and asked, âI am clueless about who did this, who executed this castration?â\n
Shen Wan stood up with a serious and indifferent face, âIt was me, Lord Guan, do you want to hear about the process? Iâm afraid that with my great strength, the knife work was fast and with a slash, it was cut off, so thereâs not much to tell.â\n
âMen! Take this woman down and cut off her hands!â\n
T/N:Â I was confused about the MTL mentioning killing/cutting âlifebloodâ, âlife rootâ, and something along the lines of that. It really made me believe that Guan Yushan was being killed, but then the word âcastrationâ comes up and Iâm like âHUH? HUH? HUH????â. It turns out that âlifebloodâ, âlife rootâ, and whatever was another translation for âpenisâ. Super facepalm moment.\n
T/N2: I may have a speedier translation time next week, (bcoz my freelance job sunk) so expect more than one chapter then. Who cares about food when we can read more Yuri. *thumbs up*\n
