Chapter 192: The Queen Is a Bad Teacher
"Yan Li." The queen stood up angrily, "How can you slander the legitimate princess in front of the emperor?"
Emperor Zhaocheng clenched the teacup tightly, the color on his face gradually condensed into ice, and his expression was extremely angry.
"Whether it is slander or not, she knows it in her heart." Yan Li looked at Mu Xue calmly, "The legitimate princess keeps saying that she is the only legitimate daughter of the emperor and the queen, but she dare not even admit what she said?"
"Yan Li." The queen looked cold, "Mu Xue can't say such a thing, you-"
"What's wrong with me saying it and admitting it?" Mu Xue seemed to have suddenly lost her mind and looked at Yan Li with a sneer, "You are an orphan of the Jiang family, you have no power and influence, why does the emperor favor you? It's all because of your shameless mother! An unmarried girl is pregnant and was driven out by the Jiang family. If I were you, I would be ashamed to live-"
"Shut up!" Emperor Zhaocheng shouted angrily, his tone was icy and piercing, "Mu Xue, you are so brave!"
As these words fell, the air in the huge hall condensed rapidly.
Mu Xue turned pale with shock, and the palace maids all knelt down: "Your Majesty, calm down!"
"Your Majesty!" The Queen stood up in a panic and eagerly defended her daughter, "Mu Xue's mistake was unintentional, please forgive her, Your Majesty."
"Unintentional mistake? I think she knows it very well!" Emperor Zhaocheng's face was ashen, and his eyebrows were full of anger. "As a legitimate princess, she doesn't think about correcting her words and deeds, and doesn't think about maintaining the dignity of the royal family. Instead, she relies on her status to find fault everywhere and ruin the reputation of the emperor and father. I didn't know that the Queen has been How can you teach your own daughter like this!"
The queen's face changed drastically, and she ordered hurriedly: "Mu Xue, kneel down!"ŴŴŴ.
Mu Xue didn't know what had happened to her. Not only did she not kneel, but she was also very stubborn: "Father, is what I said wrong? Who is Yan Li? Why should she be on an equal footing with me! I am the legitimate princess, I am! She is just an orphan who lives under someone else's roof, a lowly embryo that no one wants!"
Emperor Zhaocheng raised his hand and slapped her: "How dare you!"
Snap!
The air froze.
Mu Xue was hit and her head tilted. Her beautiful and fair cheeks swelled up quickly. The fingerprints were clearly visible, and she swelled up at a speed visible to the naked eye, gradually turning into purple swelling.
Fengyi Palace was quiet for a moment, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
The queen stared at Emperor Zhaocheng in a daze. The emperor's expression was dark and ugly, and there was a raging anger in his eyes.
Mu Xue covered her face and couldn't believe it.
Madam Zhao and a group of palace maids knelt on the ground, their faces pale with fear.
"I really indulge you too much." Emperor Zhaocheng took a deep breath and looked at Mu Xue with great disgust. "Just now I said that you are tolerant, I really misjudged you! You don't have the mind and bearing of a legitimate princess at all, which makes me very disappointed!"
The queen was cold all over, and couldn't believe that Mu Xue would cause such a big disaster for her.
"Xiao Changhai!"
Xiao Changhai stepped into the palace door tremblingly and knelt down to listen to the order: "Your servant is here."
"The queen has failed to educate her daughter and has seriously neglected her duties. From today on, Fengyi Palace will be sealed off, the queen's phoenix seal and treasure book will be taken back, and she and her daughter will be ordered to stay in Fengyi Palace to reflect and not go out at will!" Emperor Zhaocheng ordered coldly, "The power of the harem will be temporarily handed over to the imperial concubine."
The queen's face turned pale and she knelt on the ground powerlessly.
"Your servant obeys the order."
Madam Zhao's face turned pale with fear, and she prostrated herself on the ground, not daring to say a word.
"Since Prince Xian has regained consciousness and can order Mu Xue to leave the palace, he should move out of the East Palace as soon as possible." Emperor Zhaocheng looked at Xiao Changhai, his eyes revealing a strong sense of pressure, "Move to Prince Xian's mansion within three days, send the Imperial Guards to guard it, and Prince Xian and his wife are not allowed to go out without an imperial edict."
The thunderous orders were given one by one, and Emperor Zhaocheng turned and left Fengyi Palace: "Yan Li, let's go."
Xiao Changhai lowered his head and responded respectfully: "Your servant obeys your order."
Yan Li looked at the pale queen and Mu Xue expressionlessly, said nothing, and then turned and left.
Arriving outside Fengyi Palace, Emperor Zhaocheng took a deep breath, turned to look at Yan Li, and his expression relaxed slightly: "I'm sorry for making you feel wronged."
Li shook her head slowly: "Nothing."
"Mu Xue has really been spoiled by the Queen." Emperor Zhaocheng put his hands behind his back, his voice still a little cold, "You go back to the Jiang family first, you don't have to go to the palace for the next two days, after you get married, you will be the Ninth Prince's Consort, I think they will be more restrained."
Yan Li nodded: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
"You are not my daughter." Emperor Zhaocheng raised his hand and rubbed her head, "Don't let your imagination run wild."
