"Where is the third prince? The emperor ordered me to send Nanny Li over." Even after Concubine Dong entered Murong Kai's palace, she still looked condescending and did not take A'man, who came to greet her, seriously at all.
"The third prince has a high fever and is resting now." Ah Man looked angrily at the woman in front of him who was as arrogant as a big red rooster, and said dissatisfiedly.
"Since the Third Prince is unwell, I'm afraid he doesn't have the energy to punish my Madam Li, so why not just let it go."
Concubine Dong had already planned to bargain with Murong Kai, but she didn't expect this result. However, she was obviously more willing to accept this result.
"It may be impossible to satisfy the Imperial Concubine's wish. The Third Prince said that since the Emperor asked Nanny Li to come and plead guilty, he must punish her."
"He dares?" Concubine Dong's eyes widened and she looked at A'man viciously.
"If the Imperial Concubine thinks that the Third Prince doesn't dare, then you can just take your servant away. Of course, I don't mind letting everyone know that Imperial Concubine Dong did not bring your evil servant to apologize."
"How dare you address me in front of the Imperial Concubine? Who the hell do you think you are?"
Without waiting for Concubine Dong to speak, Nanny Li spoke first. Originally, since the Third Prince was ill, she could have escaped, but this lowly maid actually said such a thing.
Nanny Li was afraid of the Third Prince, but not necessarily of this little maid. She had already disliked Ah Man in the hall before, and now the most powerful person in the hall was Concubine Dong. She didn't believe that Concubine Dong would not seek revenge for her.
"Of course I am nothing, but I have said this before. Concubine Dong, you dare not punish me. Even the Emperor of your Great Zhou cannot punish me. But you, who came here to ask for forgiveness, are so arrogant. Do you really think that our Third Prince is dead?"
Ah Man's eyes were wide open with anger, and her dark face was slightly flushed due to anger, which made her eyes look as bright as black pearls.
"Come here, capture this evil slave who wants to kill the third prince and beat him up."
Ah Man gave the order loudly, and everyone in the Third Prince's Palace couldn't help but obey her words.
Because they all knew that the usually cold Third Prince treated this woman very specially. Since he brought her to the palace in the afternoon, all the Third Prince's orders were instructed by this woman. And now this woman was so angry because of their Third Prince.
Concubine Dong had never expected that the Third Prince's men would actually dare to arrest Nanny Li in front of her. Seeing Nanny Li being pressed onto a stool, Concubine Dong was so angry that she was shaking all over. She looked at Nanny Li, then turned to look at Ah Man, and shouted, "How dare you."
"If you don't dare, I won't hit you. Beat him now. This wicked slave almost killed the third prince. Beat him to death and that's it." After Ah Man said this, he smiled at Concubine Dong, turned around and left.
"Someone, come here, catch this ignorant girl and beat her to death." Concubine Dong said this loudly, but her finger was shaking as she pointed at Ah Man.
It has been many years since I lost my composure, and it has been many years since anyone made me this angry.
Now there was only one thought left in Concubine Dong's mind, which was to kill this hateful woman.
However, she was disappointed after all, because when her people caught Ah Man, a jade pendant fell from Ah Man's body.
There was a soaring phoenix on the jade pendant, and Concubine Dong seemed familiar with the shape of the phoenix.
How could it be a sense of déjà vu? This phoenix was clearly her nightmare.
Because that phoenix looked more like a chicken, except that it had longer hair.
“How did you get this thing? You actually stole the Empress Dowager’s things, you…” Concubine Dong’s hand was still shaking as she pointed at Ah Man, but it was no longer because of anger, but fear.
The woman who created such a phoenix is the biggest dark cloud in her colorful life.
