Could the Empress Dowager possibly eat her?

hehe.

She absolutely cannot back down.

The Empress Dowager narrowed her eyes at her, "Is the Imperial Advisor deceiving me?"

"What do you mean by that, Your Majesty?" Xiao Tang looked utterly shocked. "How could I dare to deceive Your Majesty? I wouldn't dare even if I had ten thousand lives!"

She feigned a look of fear and trepidation.

"Imperial Preceptor, do you think I don't know? You always come and go alone, and I have never seen you have any overly intimate contact with any woman. You tell me that you have someone you admire?"

Xiao Tang curled her lips.

"Your Majesty, you are mistaken. I have a secret crush on that girl, how could I dare to get close to her!"

"Waaaah!" As she spoke, He Xiaoxiao started crying again.

Xiao Tang: ? ? ?

Damn it, what are you crying about again!

Anyone who didn't know better would think he was a heartless man who had taken advantage of this woman.

Xiao Tang was speechless. She glared at the woman, and despite the Empress Dowager's piercing gaze, she calmly explained, "Your Majesty, I only recognize this woman, and I will not marry anyone else in this life..."

Just as the Empress Dowager was about to lose her temper, a young eunuch rushed over.

"Your Majesty, a young man is requesting an audience outside."

"What young master?" The Empress Dowager was not pleased.

She was already feeling annoyed, and hearing about "young master" made her completely indifferent.

Moreover, the male prostitute that the Emperor of Western Qin promised her has not yet been delivered, so she had no hope at all.

The eunuch hesitated before speaking, glancing at Xiao Tang.

"Speak!" the Empress Dowager said impatiently.

The eunuch stammered, "Reporting to Your Majesty the Empress Dowager, that young man claimed to be the Grand Preceptor's male favorite and came to see you specifically. It was...it was the Grand Preceptor who instructed him to do so."

Xiao Tang: ...?! (⊙o⊙)...
