"This is my family affair." Murong Zheng looked at Qu Jingze with a hint of annoyance in his eyes. After hearing this, the ministers in the hall didn't even dare to breathe. They suppressed their resentment and knelt on the ground obediently.
"Since the Queen doesn't want to go, then Concubine Dong, you go by yourself and hand this evil slave over to Kai'er for punishment." After saying this, Murong Zheng turned and left, without caring at all about Concubine Dong, who was pale and wanted to say something but stopped.
After Murong Zheng left, the ministers looked at each other in bewilderment. They really couldn't understand what the emperor meant by this action.
Protecting Concubine Dong? But he asked Concubine Dong to send Nanny Li over. Did he want her to watch Murong Kai slap her in the face
Protecting Murong Kai? A maid injured the prince, but she was lucky enough to survive. This prince has no importance in the emperor's heart.
Only the Queen stood up slowly after Murong Zheng left, and calmly ordered the ministers to leave. When she turned to leave, she glanced at Concubine Dong meaningfully and said softly, "Concubine Dong, the Emperor will indulge you, but there are some bottom lines that you'd better not cross. If anything happens to the children again, I will make you pay the price even if I have to give up my job as Queen."
"Your Highness, I am really scared. If it was the eldest prince who got into trouble this time, you would never let it go like this."
Although Concubine Dong was extremely upset at the moment, she still fought back sharply in the face of the Queen's provocation.
She, Concubine Dong, could tremble in fear in front of the emperor, but the queen...
Ever since she became the emperor's favorite concubine, the queen has become just a title, and she even dares to shout in front of him.
"You are right, but for the other children, if they call me mother, I will protect them. Starting tomorrow, learn the rules of Concubine Dong. I will wait for you to come over and pay your respects tomorrow."
After the queen finished speaking, she turned and left, her back straight and graceful. Concubine Dong looked at the queen's back and her teeth chattered.
But no matter how much she hated it, she could only endure it. The emperor said that the empress was chosen by the grand empress dowager and no one could touch her.
"My Lady, will the Third Prince..."
When Nanny Li saw that everyone had left, she knelt forward and spoke in a low voice.
"Don't worry, no one can touch you while I'm here." When Concubine Dong spoke, she was very confident in her heart, but Nanny Li was still worried.
"My Lady, as long as the Third Prince doesn't want to kill me, please don't say anything. After all, that matter is ours..."
"What's wrong with us? He's so smart and clever that he's liked and favored by the emperor. He should have been our Jie'er's. He's just a bastard born of a bastard."
Concubine Dong glared at Nanny Li unhappily and slowly walked out of the hall. She was sure that Murong Kai would not make her uncomfortable for the sake of momentary pleasure. However, Concubine Dong did not expect that when she arrived at Murong Kai's bedroom, the person in charge was not Murong Kai.
Because Murong Kai fainted, he had a high fever and fell into a coma shortly after returning to the palace.
While Ah Man ordered someone to call the imperial physician, she was anxiously trying to cool him down. While she was in a panic, she heard a message from a servant outside saying that Concubine Dong and Nanny Li had come to receive punishment.
Concubine Dong was brought here? To be punished? Ah Man was a little confused about the emperor's intention. Was he going to let her be punished or not
However, looking at the unconscious young man lying on the bed, Ah Man's heart was filled with gloom. She patted Murong Kai's hand and said softly, "Your father doesn't want his beauty to be sad, but I don't care. I will avenge you."
For no reason, Ah Man just wanted to protect this proud and awkward boy.
