Chapter 353: The Rumble in Ci'an Palace
Chapter 353: The Rumble in Ci'an Palace
Why should the juicy cabbages they grew be eaten by pigs?
Especially when thinking of the scene of sending her off to get married, how could Qin Xubai remain indifferent?
Isn't this his chance?
It is just like Yan Ting said: seize the opportunity to sow discord. There is only lazy provocation in this world, but no lovers who can’t stop sowing discord.
The harsher Song Yunxi scolded Ye Xuanqi, the happier Qin Xubai became.
Ci'an Hall.
As soon as Song Yunxi stepped into the hall, he felt a sense of oppression coming towards him.
She knew very well that this feeling of oppression came from the Queen Mother.
After decades of immersion in the deep palace, the aura is indeed unique.
But Song Yunxi was not afraid at all and nodded slightly: "Yunxi greets the Queen Mother."
"Be bold!"
The people around the Queen Mother angrily rebuked: "You didn't even show respect to Queen Qing. This is a crime of great disrespect."
Song Yunxi: Sure enough, he came here to take her life.
The Queen Mother said indifferently and gloomily: "Song Yunxi, you don't show courtesy to me when you see me. Don't you take me seriously?"
If she dared to answer yes, she would be dragged out and beaten to death the next second.
"Queen Mother, I am from Shengyun Mountain, not a subject of the Jin'an Dynasty, and certainly not a slave who can be ordered around."
Considering that the Queen Mother had been kind to Master Gou, I will give her a chance. If she insists on being an enemy of Sheng Yunshan, then don't blame her men for being ruthless.
Sure enough, the Queen Mother's body stiffened slightly after hearing about Shengyun Mountain. Intellectually, she knew that Shengyun Mountain was beyond the world and not controlled or restricted by any country. Instead, it had absolute decision-making power over the life and death of each country.
But emotionally, whenever she thought of the tragic deaths of her two granddaughters, the hatred in her heart would burst out uncontrollably, and as a grandmother, there was no reason for her to sit idly by.
In the end, his emotions prevailed over his reason, and he shouted angrily, "Come here, drag this arrogant person away and beat her until she admits her mistake!"
Even the Emperor wouldn't dare to force his way into her Ci'an Palace. Today, she wanted to see who was harder, her board or this little girl's bones.
The palace servants in Ci'an Palace could no longer stand Song Yunxi's arrogant attitude and stepped forward to catch her, but before they could get close to her, they were whipped to the ground by a flash of cold light.
Song Yunxi completely ignored the palace maids' wailing and raised the silver whip in her hand: "I want to see who dares to touch me."
As he spoke, he sat down gracefully. His calm and elegant demeanor further angered the queen mother: "Song Yunxi, who gave you the courage to commit atrocities in Ai's palace?"
"Snapped!"
The silver whip in Song Yunxi's hand fell on the teacup next to the Queen Mother, and the teacup fell to the ground and broke into pieces.
The Queen Mother subconsciously shrank her body and did not make another sound.
"Next time, I won't target the dead things in your hand."
Song Yunxi's eyes flashed with coldness: "You are just a pampered woman in the harem. Who gave you the courage to yell at me?"
"you……"
"I can let you enjoy your current honor and glory, or I can let you become an ordinary woman with nothing..."
Song Yunxi shook the silver whip in his hand lightly, saying casually: "If you want to teach me a lesson, you should also consider whether you are qualified."
She took a look at the gorgeous and precious furnishings in the Ci'an Palace and said, "The treasury is empty, the soldiers on the border are hungry, but the empress dowager lives a life of luxury and wealth. No wonder she can't even recognize the identity of her own concubine."
"How dare you humiliate me..."
The Queen Mother slammed the table and stood up. The silver whip in Song Yunxi's hand flew over and rolled up all the jewels on her head.
Everyone was shocked at Song Yunxi's boldness, and no one dared to step forward to stop her.
"Somebody come!"
Song Yunxi took the initiative and a group of guards rushed into Ci'an Hall.
"The Queen Mother is kind and compassionate. She is concerned about the soldiers at the border who are hungry and cold, so she wants to donate these treasures to the border. You must move them away immediately!"
The guards took the order and moved. The Queen Mother was furious: "Stop, everyone, stop!"
But those swift and resolute guards turned a deaf ear to them, and even when the palace maids from Ci'an Palace stepped forward to stop them, they were rushed back by them.
Soon, more than half of the magnificent Ci'an Palace was emptied. Song Yunxi looked at the pale-faced empress dowager and smiled: "I would like to thank the empress dowager on behalf of the soldiers at the border."
He originally wanted to teach Song Yunxi a lesson to vent his anger for his two granddaughters, but unexpectedly, not only did he fail to vent his anger, he almost died of anger.
After decades of being pampered and respected, she had never been so humiliated, and was slapped in the face mercilessly.
The Queen Mother didn't know what to do for a moment. Her body, which had not yet recovered, was now shaky.
Song Yunxi is not an ordinary woman, and she does not act on impulse. She never takes the initiative to cause trouble, but she is never afraid of trouble. She will even make those who come to her feel helpless.
For example, at this moment, even as the Queen Mother, she couldn't get any advantage from Song Yunxi.
The decades of high and mighty dignity have worn away her former means. She is now unable to even resist a little girl. It is truly ridiculous.
But she also underestimated the enemy and did not take the little girl seriously.
"Is there any movement from the Emperor's side?"
Hearing the Queen Mother's question, Nanny Guo beside her hurriedly said, "I have already had someone leak the news, but the Emperor is still handling government affairs in Chongzheng Hall."
In the past, even if the Empress Dowager was just a little unwell, the Emperor would drop everything and rush to Ci'an Palace to visit and ask about her well-being. He would give her instructions on every detail, fearing that the palace servants would not take good care of her.
But this time, she had ordered people to pass the message, but the emperor remained indifferent.
Even though Miss Song had thrown Ci'an Palace into chaos, not only being disrespectful to the Empress Dowager but also emptying the Palace, the Emperor still seemed to be completely unaware.
In the past, she had only heard that the Emperor doted on Miss Song extremely and indulged her, even to the extent that the other princes and princesses did. She thought that was an exaggeration, but now it seems that it is even worse than that.
Madam Guo was terrified when she thought of the fate of those who opposed Song Yunxi. "Your Majesty, please allow me to be so bold. Miss Song is not an ordinary person. Now the eyes of the world are on her, the heir of Shengyun Mountain. If she is wronged by your Majesty, then you will be the one who is in the middle of the trouble. I am afraid that even the emperor will not be able to protect her."
The Queen Mother pondered for a long time, then sighed helplessly: "How could I not know what you said? But whenever I think of Yan'er and Shan'er, I feel so distressed that I just can't swallow this anger."
Seeing that the Queen Mother had calmed down, Madam Guo boldly said, "Your Majesty, you don't have to do it yourself if you can't swallow this anger. Whether it's Concubine Shen or Princess Yu, how could they let the murderer who killed their daughter go?"
The Queen Mother suddenly had an idea: "You mean..."
"Your Majesty, you only need to lend them a helping hand secretly. There is really no need to bring trouble upon yourself."
