Jian Yang watched the whole thing from the side, and she was completely dumbfounded!

She hadn't expected the emperor to tolerate even this.

She beat his favorite little wife!

Could it be that the Emperor and Empress truly love each other?

Jian Yang was a little confused.

Since Consort Yu was at fault first, after seeing Consort Yu off, the Empress Dowager gave Jian Yang a few words of mild reproach and then returned to the palace.

"Your Majesty has been frightened." The Emperor stepped forward and patted Jian Yang's arm: "From now on, you can manage the harem with confidence. I have faith in your abilities."

After saying that, he gave Jian Yang a "good luck" look and then gracefully left.

Jian Yang then realized what was happening.

That scoundrel is exploiting her again!

That unscrupulous capitalist! She'll have to resign sooner or later!!

That night, Consort Yu was confined to her quarters.

With tears streaming down her face, she wrote a letter to her grandfather, the Prince of Dingbian.

It details the abuse the empress inflicted on her.

And the grievances she has suffered in the deep palace these days!

After she finished writing it, she ordered someone to send it to the Prince's mansion that very night.

After reading the letter, the King of Dingbian was furious!

They immediately prepared to go to the palace to demand an explanation from the emperor.

It was the concubine who persuaded him to stay, saying it was too late.

That very night, news that the Prince of Dingbian wanted to enter the palace to question the emperor reached the emperor's hands.

Zhou Jingzhi looked at the intelligence report in his hand and rubbed his temples helplessly.

It seems there's still a tough battle ahead tomorrow.

The next day.

The Prince of Dingbian entered the palace with a gloomy face!

"Your Majesty, do you still remember what you promised me when I married my precious granddaughter to you?"
