Don’t Mess with the Tough Lady

What's surprising is that Du Qingheng couldn't help but smile after hearing Defei's words.

"This time, it's really because of the emperor."

The faces of all the concubines in the room were surprised. Du Qingheng glanced at the queen as if showing off, and said with joy.

"No, the concubine heard that the emperor had no appetite in recent days, so she asked the Imperial Dining Room to make some delicious snacks and deliver them."

"But so early, the emperor hasn't come down yet, right?" Concubine Shu obviously didn't believe it, and her skeptical eyes kept looking at her.

Du Qingheng was not at all afraid of what she would see. He looked triumphant and continued talking vividly.

"Today the emperor was down early, so the concubine just saw the emperor. How could I know that the emperor insisted that the concubine accompany him with snacks. How dare I refuse the emperor, so if I go back and forth, won’t you delay it? I think the empress will not blame it. Concubine, right?"

There is no hint of apology in her bragging look.

However, after she had said this for a long time, Du Xuechun's reaction was unremarkable, as if he did not take the emperor to heart at all.

Did not see the look that he wanted to see, Du Qingheng was a little unwilling in the end, and continued to provoke him unwillingly.

"Niang, the emperor has a bad appetite, don't you care about it?"

Unexpectedly, Du Xuechun just smiled faintly, without even looking at her.

"Isn't the imperial concubine caring about this? Then why should this palace make such a move?"

Unexpectedly, she was unaffected at all, thinking of the emperor's disgusting appearance, and looking at Du Xuechun in front of him, Du Qingheng was really anxious.

"Oh, yes, the emperor said, let the concubine bring the eldest prince back with him, so he doesn't have to go to the battlefield in the future, saying that he is afraid that the concubine is worried. The emperor is really good, and he knows what the concubine is thinking."

She covered her veil and smiled, causing Concubine Shu and Concubine De to roll his eyes, and only she could be so pretentious.

Du Xuechun didn't bother to talk to her anymore, since everyone was here, there was nothing to say.

"Okay, since everyone is here, there is nothing wrong with today, so let's go back early, Mingying, give it away!"

Du Xuechun shouted, Mingying walked in from outside, the redness on her face had disappeared, but there were still some marks, Du Xuechun specially rewarded a few boxes of powder for her to cover.

"Ladies, young master, please."

Everyone got up to salute the queen and leave, but the moment Du Qingheng saw Mingying, the action of getting up changed to sit back.

Seeing this scene, Du Xuechun tilted his eyes: "Is there anything else going on Du Guifei?"

"Of course the concubine is fine. It's just that Mingying, the queen is still by her side? I'm not afraid that someday she will turn her head and bite you. You must be careful."

Du Qingheng patted his chest, as if very scared.

"My maid is tired. Please come back. The servant is not a merciless person. The servant is kind to me, and the servant will naturally follow the lady."

Mingying fangs back to Du Qingheng, not afraid of her at all, staring at her firmly, maintaining the posture of inviting people.

"You—" I haven't seen you for a few days now, and Mingying's girl is like that defiant again, and Du Qingheng is choked by her words.

Seeing her shriveled appearance, De Fei felt relieved in her heart.

"Mingying is a heartfelt girl, and she is sincere to the empress. For some things, we still need to find out the truth, and we can't wrong the good people."

"This imperial concubine is not yet your turn to teach!"

Du Qingheng glared fiercely at Concubine De, she could not control Mingying, but Concubine De could still control her.

De Fei rolled her eyes, but still shut her mouth.

Du Xuechun really didn't want to see Du Qingheng for a second. Her expression was already a little uncomfortable: "Concubine Du, don't you understand what Mingying said? My palace is tired, please go back!"

"I'm afraid I forgot. Now this palace has changed."

The faint voice didn't know how to stop, but it kept reaching Du Xuechun's ears, making her unhappy.

She turned to look at Du Qingheng, her black eyes were filled with colors that seemed to be able to see through people's hearts. Du Qingheng was so scared by those eyes that she couldn't help but grabbed her skirt.

What she hates most is the face and eyes of the person in front of her, but this still can't stop her from saying the rest.

"How long has the emperor not seen the empress? Even though the emperor said that he believes in the queen, he is very honest. I haven't seen the emperor for so long, don't you know what the empress looks like?"

"I don't know the empress? In the minister's mouth, you have become a jealous queen. I heard that someone has proposed to abolish the queen!"

Du Xuechun's face finally reacted somewhat, but that was only a moment of disgust-disgust for Du Qingheng.

The rest of the people on the side were so frightened, they secretly said that Du Qingheng was crazy.

Concubine Shu was afraid of the queen's anger, so she hurriedly stopped her: "Gui Concubine Du! You speak carefully!"

"What is Concubine Shu afraid of? Isn't this palace right?" Du Qingheng ignored her at all, still doing her own way.

"The queen has fallen out of favor. This is a fact that even the sweeping court lady knows. Today she is nothing but a queen's shell. Do you dare to say that you don't understand this in your heart?"

This is really an excellent transfer of flowers! Concubine Shu's face changed a bit by what she said, for fear of the queen's misunderstanding, she quickly explained.

"I... this, empress, concubine..."

"okay."

Du Xuechun raised her hand, indicating that she need not say anything, but looking at Du Qingheng's eyes did not change at all.

The queen hasn't moved yet, but Du Qingheng can't hold it anymore, she seems to have begun to panic in her heart.

"Concubine Du contempt the rules of the palace and dare to call herself the palace in front of this palace. It seems that the lessons from the last time were not profound enough!" This sudden evidence caught Du Qingheng by surprise.

The latter was stunned, and even thought her words were a bit untrue.

"The weather in this palace is pretty good today. It's too early now. It's better if Concubine Du is kneeling outside the Kunning Palace for half an hour and remembering a rule of the palace!"

Her whole body suddenly exuded a powerful aura, making everyone present trembled.

Du Qingheng gritted her teeth, of course she was not willing.

"Why? This palace is a noble concubine! Why should I kneel!"

"Since the mouth is so hard, add another half an hour! Mingying, please go and kneel outside!"

Du Xuechun didn't take her trick at all. She is the queen, the most powerful person in the entire harem. Is there any reason to punish the imperial concubine?

Mingying directly called the two guards at the door and walked in front of Du Qingheng.

"Concubine Du, please."

"Get away! Why should this palace kneel! Do you dare to move the noble concubine, be careful I let you go around!"

"Why! Just because my palace is the queen, and my palace has the power! Isn't it enough to deal with a concubine who made a mistake!"

Du Xuechun suddenly clapped the table beside him, and the whole room was silent for an instant. Even Du Qingheng was stunned. Taking advantage of her stunned time, Mingying directly let her drive her out.
