"What are you talking about? Hurry up and apologize to Sister Yan Ning." The Queen Mother glared at the one who stuck out angrily.

The concubine who spoke was indeed an old woman who had been with the Grand Concubine for many years. She immediately understood what the Grand Concubine meant and turned to Qin Yanning and said, "Don't blame me, sister. It was my fault for being so mean. Your Excellency is magnanimous. Don't argue with me."

Although the person who spoke had a humble attitude, he was extremely angry in his heart. They had clearly made up their minds to humiliate this little bitch from the Central Plains, but they didn't expect that she would outmaneuver them and force her to apologize in shame in front of everyone.

Qin Yanning didn't respond at all. She turned to look at the Queen Consort and smiled innocently. "Sister Queen Consort, I've been trying to persuade the Khan to treat everyone equally. I know I came late and can't compare to the deep affection between you sisters and the Khan. I don't want to upset you because of me."

Qin Yanning was so disgusted by his own words that he almost vomited, and the Queen Concubine was naturally also very disgusted by these words.

But she couldn't do anything and could only let Qin Yanning perform in the palace.

Qin Yanning became more and more excited as he performed, and even forced out a few tears.

The Queen Dowager felt as if she had eaten a few dead flies. If she had known that this little bitch would set her up like this, she would rather suppress those idiots who couldn't live without men than accompany them and show off.

Qin Yanning looked embarrassed, but in her heart she was wondering why Tuoba Xiao hadn't arrived yet.

That's right, she had prepared everything for today long ago. As early as when Tuoba Ling visited her bedroom at night, she knew that there would be a day when she would be attacked by everyone.

When Tuoba Ling told her that Concubine Lin had faked her death, she and Tuoba Ling agreed to suppress the news first.

Concubine Lin was just her mother, not an important person. If no one mentioned it deliberately, Tuoba Xiao would not care about it at all.

The reason why this news had to be suppressed was to wait until this day to tell Tuoba Xiao.

Tuoba Xiao loves beauties the most. Now that he has tasted the sweetness in his dream, if he knew that something happened to her mother, he would naturally come to tell her the news in person to comfort his little beauty. Then Yuzhu could naturally lead Tuoba Xiao to the Queen Mother's bedroom.

Qin Yanning has been slowly playing the role of a poor little green tea girl, just waiting for Tuoba Xiao to "uphold justice."

Qin Yanning lowered his head and was stunned for a moment, then a report came from outside the palace door. Qin Yanning immediately looked outside the palace and saw Tuoba Xiao's bloated figure.

Tuoba Xiao stormed in, glancing displeasedly at everyone in the hall. "Well, well, I never expected these concubines of mine to behave like this in private. I just spent a few more days with Yan Ning, and you're making things difficult for her like this?"

Qin Yanning quickly pretended to be aggrieved and hid behind Tuoba Xiao.

Tuoba Ling knew how to find time. He learned the news from Tuoba Xiao and then came here. He managed the timing just right.

Qin Yanning had no idea that Tuoba Ling had already arranged everything and was just waiting for Qin Yanning to send someone to inform him today. However, it was a coincidence that Tuoba Xiao arrived so timely.

I can only say that Qin Yanning's performance came at the right time.

Tuoba Xiao was in high spirits these days. He glanced at Qin Yanning behind him, patted her hands lovingly, and angrily said to the Queen Consort, "Is this how you manage the harem? You're not even as sensible as Yanning!"

The Queen Consort had never suffered such an injustice before. Her face turned pale. She explained, "Khan, I didn't expect this to happen. I am the one who most hopes for harmony in the Khan's harem. You and I have been married for so many years, how could you not know my character?"

Qin Yanning quickly came out to help, "King Khan, the Queen Consort is right. She was just speaking up for me."

What Qin Yanning said was interesting. On the surface, she was speaking for the Queen Mother, but Tuoba Xiao understood the Queen Mother's methods best. She had absolute say in the harem. Without her consent, these concubines would not dare to embarrass Qin Yanning.

Tuoba Xiao was able to become the Khan, so he was naturally not a fool. He understood the meaning of Qin Yanning's words and became even more dissatisfied with the Queen Mother.

They were a young couple. When they gave birth to their first prince, both of them were less than twenty years old. Therefore, he placed all his hopes on the eldest prince. Although he had many beauties over the years, he was extremely tolerant towards the queen dowager.

But he didn't expect that this tolerance would make the Queen Dowager forget her own identity.

Tuoba Xiao looked at the Queen Concubine. Although he didn't say anything, his eyes showed his attitude. The Queen Concubine felt a chill all over her body when she saw Tuoba Xiao's eyes, and she had no choice but to scold the concubine who spoke out.

Tuoba Xiao finally gave the eldest prince face and did not blame the Queen Consort in public. He said, "Since that's the case, you are the Queen Consort, so I'll leave this matter to you."

After saying this, Tuoba Xiao took Qin Yanning back to her own bedroom, leaving the Queen Mother and several other concubines looking at each other in bewilderment in the hall.

The Queen Dowager was complaining bitterly at this moment. She originally wanted to appease the concubines under her command, but she didn't expect that the matter would get bigger and bigger, and even dragged herself into the water even though she had always been cautious and self-protective.
