Chapter 895 The Zhuang Family Regrets!
Everything returned to normal. The two guards, knowing they had thoroughly offended Prince Su, no longer dared to stay. They quickly put on their clothes and ran out, each trying to find a way to speak on their behalf.
Let's leave those aside for now.
Let's just talk about the Zhuang family, who were exposed by Prince Su.
Zhuang was completely stunned. She hadn't expected the prince to come to the Ministry of Justice at this time. She had always thought that the prince's failure to come for so long meant that he had already abandoned her.
But she forgot that Duanmu Ya was also imprisoned in the Shenxing Division. Even if the prince didn't care about her feelings, he would still think about his own daughter.
Zhuang was now truly filled with regret.
If I had known this would happen, I would never have been so clever as to try to please those two guards.
Now things are really messed up. Those two have taken my body, but we don't know if they're alive or dead, while I'm sure I have no chance of survival.
Zhuang was still naked. She was kneeling on the bed, thinking that her son seemed to have followed the prince in earlier.
Good heavens! Zhuang clutched her hair tightly with both hands. That chaotic and filthy scene must have caught Duanmu Song's eye. He was her only hope!
"No! How could this be? How could this be?"
Seeing her somewhat delirious state, two old women came in and sneered, "Zhuang, when you were enjoying your lovemaking here, you should have known that your lack of fidelity would be exposed sooner or later."
"Exactly, why are you pretending to be a virtuous and chaste woman now? You were having a great time with those two just now, weren't you?"
Zhuang Shi immediately came to her senses and pointed at one of them, cursing, "You bitch! It was you! You must have deliberately framed me! Otherwise, why would the Prince have come to the Ministry of Punishments at this time? You two bitches, you will die a horrible death!"
One of them immediately got angry, strode forward, and slapped him twice.
"Fine, you're just a prisoner in our hands now, yet you dare to be so arrogant. I think you've gained the favor of those two guards and don't know your place! Come on, drag her out!"
Two eunuchs entered and, seeing the situation, were somewhat troubled. "Are you just going to drag her out like this? She's still naked."
The old woman who had been scolded by Zhuang earlier retorted viciously, "Let her be naked. Isn't she shameless? Isn't she promiscuous? Let's drag her into the men's prison and make her do this shameful thing in front of all those men."
"No! Don't. I was wrong, you can't do this, I am Prince Su's woman. You can't."
Upon hearing this, Zhuang Shi finally came to her senses and immediately began grabbing the cotton cloth on the bed while searching for her clothes.
But the old woman wouldn't give her a chance, shouting, "What are you all standing there for? Go now!"
The two eunuchs, not daring to delay any longer, stepped forward and each grabbed one of her arms, pulling her outside.
That Zhuang family member absolutely refused to leave the house.
Here, at least two eunuchs saw her body; to put it bluntly, they were men who couldn't have sex and couldn't be considered men at all.
But once she left that room, she was truly ruined.
No matter how strong Zhuang was, she was no match for those eunuchs.
When they reached the door, Zhuang clung tightly to the door frame, refusing to let go.
One of the eunuchs grew impatient, grabbed something, and hurled it at her fingers.
Zhuang shouted, and then released her grip.
And so, Zhuang was taken directly to the men's prison.
The prison cells of the Censorate held not only eunuchs, but also some guards who had committed serious offenses.
Those guards were all genuine men.
Some of them have been locked up here for several years and have almost forgotten what the women look like.
Now, it looks very lively outside, with countless men clinging to the wooden stakes of the prison and craning their necks to look out.
Even some eunuchs who had committed serious offenses joined in the fun.
This day was destined to be one that Zhuang would never forget.
Zhuang never imagined that the Censorate would come up with such a way to punish her.
When she returned to her original cell, she was practically carried back by several men.
She was only wearing a tattered garment, and she exuded a peculiar scent that made people blush.
When Duanmu Ya saw that her mother, who had been missing for several days, had finally returned, she felt relieved.
But then, seeing her like that, and realizing she wouldn't respond no matter how he called her, he couldn't help but get a little anxious.
All of this has truly robbed Zhuang of the will to live.
She could endure the previous torture, but now, just thinking about those filthy men's faces and groping hands constantly touching her body makes her feel disgusted.
What she least wanted to recall was the way Prince Su and Duanmu Song looked at her back then.
The disgust in her eyes almost broke her down.
Zhuang's eyes flickered slightly. After thinking about it carefully, what was her purpose in doing this?
Isn't it all just to find a good husband for their daughter and a good future for their son?
But the result?
She got nothing she wanted; instead, she ended up in this dark and hopeless place.
Not only her, but now her daughter has also been locked up. It seems that in the future, neither of them will ever have a chance to get out of this mess.
Zhuang's tears streamed down her face. If she had known this would happen, she shouldn't have been greedy, shouldn't have tried to scheme against Duanmu Qing, and shouldn't have tried to cover for that person. She should have confessed to her earlier, and perhaps she could have reduced her punishment.
But now, it's too late to say anything.
The prince witnessed her most sordid moment. Even if she were to leave, the prince would certainly never want her again.
I'm afraid her son will also be ashamed of her and will never want to see her again.
What should I do from now on?
Wanting to die but unable to, living a life that doesn't feel like living a decent life—such a life is truly worse than being dead.
"Mother, Mother, what's wrong? Wake up, look at your daughter."
The repeated calls of Duanmu Ya finally brought a glimmer of light back to Zhuang Shi's eyes.
Her ashen face made her look somewhat terrifying. The pain in her body made her unwilling to move an inch. She gently turned her head, blinked, and indicated that she was still alive and wouldn't die.
When Duanmu Ya saw that Zhuang Shi had finally turned around, she quickly smiled and said, "Mother, it's good that you're alright, it's good that you're alright."
