Chapter 309 The Dog Consort Gets Beaten! The Scumbag Emperor Goes Back on His Words, and the Empress Laughs.

Consort Huan never expected that she would be in such a situation after entering the palace!

She never expected that Meng Yanzhi, who used to be so submissive to her, would suddenly become a completely different person and dare to treat her like this!

"You bastards, you're all scoundrels!"

"Meng Yanzhi, you shameless bastard!"

"presumptuous!"

Granny Wang came over with a ruler and struck her hard.

"You insolent brat, how dare you address Her Majesty the Empress by her given name? What's wrong with your Canglan Kingdom? Does no one have any manners?"

Consort Huan looked at her in disbelief: "You dare hit me!"

"That's exactly what I'm going to do!"

"Hurry up and kneel down!"

Granny Wang was acting on Meng Yanzhi's orders, so she wouldn't stand on ceremony with Consort Huan at all.

Consort Huan gritted her teeth, wanting to resist, but after looking around and finding no one of her own people, she had no choice but to kneel down reluctantly, gritting her teeth as she said, "Tell Meng Yanzhi that I will absolutely, absolutely not let the Second Master go easily!"

Snap!

Granny Wang raised the ruler and struck again, striking hard.

That evening, Xiao Xingyuan returned to Haitang Palace as usual to have dinner with Meng Yanzhi, but Meng Yanzhi said indifferently, "Today is Consort Huan's first day in the palace. Your Majesty should go and keep her company."

What? Xiao Xingyuan was stunned.

He even wondered if he had misheard.

Xiao Xingyuan looked at Meng Yanzhi in disbelief, then asked, "You really want me to go to her place?"

"We always have to go and make the occasion happen, don't we?" Meng Yanzhi fed the child without paying attention to herself.

The child has grown a bit and has teeth now, so she can eat some foods that are suitable for children. Meng Yanzhi has always loved cooking, and she takes even better care of her daughter, always making the best food possible for her!

Looking at Meng Yanzhi's unwavering gaze, Xiao Xingyuan felt that something was off.

He walked over and went around to the front of Meng Yanzhi: "Yanzhi, is there something you're unhappy about? You can tell me directly."

"Your Majesty, I am truly not unhappy at all."

"I just feel that if you're going to put on a show, you have to go all the way."

"Don't worry, as long as you don't want to, she can't do anything to you. I believe in you."

Meng Yanzhi smiled gently and looked at Xiao Xingyuan.

After being reborn, Meng Yanzhi didn't even care about her own chastity, so how could she care whether Xiao Xingyuan could really remain chaste?

All she wants now is to live a good life with her child. If one day Xiao Xingyuan really changes his mind and no longer loves her, then she will take her daughter and run away without any regrets!

Xiao Xingyuan wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he always felt that Meng Yanzhi's attitude towards him had changed. Although these changes were subtle, he could feel them very clearly.

"Rouge, did I do something wrong lately that made you unhappy?"

"I've never been very perceptive, so if you're unhappy, you must tell me directly!"

"You...you're not allowed to secretly get angry, and you can't just leave like this."

Xiao Xingyuan didn't know what was wrong with him, but he always felt as if he might lose Meng Yanzhi at any moment, and he was always uneasy.

"Your Majesty, I am truly content now."

"Because of enough trust, I was able to let go."

"Your Majesty, go."

Meng Yanzhi was completely helpless. She could only put down the small spoon in her hand and smile at Xiao Xingyuan.

Everything she's doing now is to defend Xiao Xingyuan's throne and status, so she doesn't understand what Xiao Xingyuan has to be so fussy about.

After confirming that Meng Yanzhi wasn't just being stubborn, Xiao Xingyuan finally breathed a sigh of relief and turned to walk outside.

Watching Xiao Xingyuan's retreating figure, Meng Yanzhi smiled gently and carried Aman to the courtyard to aid digestion.

"Your Majesty, are you really comfortable letting His Majesty go to Consort Huan's place?" Qingdao looked at Meng Yanzhi with some confusion, not understanding why Meng Yanzhi was so lenient about this matter this time.

Looking at Qingdao's worried expression, Meng Yanzhi smiled and said calmly, "You are still young. When you grow up, you will understand that men are not meant to be tied down. What is yours will be yours, and what is not yours cannot be forced. If His Majesty does not want it, then even if Consort Huan uses all her tricks, it will be useless. But if His Majesty wants it, who can stop him?"

The incident with the palace maid served as a wake-up call for Meng Yanzhi.

Even if two people are mutually in love, problems will still arise, so Meng Yanzhi has now learned how to focus on the big picture and let go of the small ones.

As long as it doesn't affect the stability and harmony between the two people, Meng Yanzhi won't hold onto it.

Xiao Xingyuan had already reached Consort Huan's palace, but after thinking for a moment, he turned around and left.

Consort Huan ran out, lifting her skirt, and upon seeing Xiao Xingyuan's back, she immediately rushed forward and hugged him tightly from behind: "No, don't go! Your Majesty, please don't go, Your Majesty, I miss you so much!"

Xiao Xingyuan's body stiffened for a moment, then he quickly pushed her away and turned to look at her: "You're very capable. You changed your identity and still managed to return to the palace!"

"Your Majesty, I love you. I only want you. I want to be with you and stay by Your Majesty's side for the rest of my life!"

"Your Majesty, there is more than one Meng Yanzhi in the world. I love you too. Why can't you look at me?"

Consort Huan held onto Xiao Xingyuan's arm, gazing at him with tender affection, her voice even trembling with tears.

She is undeniably beautiful, but her cheeks are swollen, making her look somewhat comical.

Seeing her like this, Xiao Xingyuan silently withdrew his hand and said coldly, "I originally gave you another path to take, but you insisted on coming back. So you must bear all the thorns on this path. From now on, you are my concubine, but only a concubine. I will not touch you or favor you. You like this nine-layered palace, so you can live here until you grow old!"

After saying this, Xiao Xingyuan turned and strode away.

"No, no!"

"Your Majesty, I love you, not this nine-layered palace!"

"Why?"

Consort Huan slumped to the ground, utterly bewildered. The two of them had always been a harmonious couple, so why had everything changed now?

It's because of Meng Yanzhi, it's because of that bitch! If it weren't for that bitch, how could they have gotten to this point!

"I'm going to kill her!"

Huanfei clenched her fists and roared through gritted teeth.

Haitang Palace.

Meng Yanzhi had just put the child to sleep when another person appeared beside her, even carrying a hint of Huanfei's fragrance.
