"Who else could it be! Of course, it's that lady in the East Courtyard!" Jing Quan immediately changed to a hateful expression and said to Lan Shanyang, "Your Majesty, you don't know, when I went over just now, that Miss Qin was like a wounded kitten, standing helplessly alone with a few people in Tongxi Palace. There was no one else around. You tell me, she's a girl from a small place, left all alone in that deserted Tongxi Palace in the middle of the night, without even a guide. She was even holding tribute for Your Majesty. Tell me, how could a young girl like her not be afraid?"

Lan Shanyang blinked and said angrily, "How could it be just one person? Doesn't delivering tribute require someone to receive it? There are rules about where to place it and where to put it. Isn't this all Hu Qianyu's doing?"

Quan Jing immediately shook his head: "I didn't see Consort Hu send anyone over! When I went there, not even a dog came out of the east courtyard!..."

"You bastard!"

Enraged, Lan Shanyang threw the teacup in her hand, which shattered on the ground.

He stood up barefoot and paced around on the ground, "This is outrageous! I gave her face by asking her to do something for me. And she dares to go and cause me trouble on her own! What? She wants to stop me from seeing anything? Did you ask her why she made things difficult for Qin Kou'er?"

Lan Shanyang was furious; his hair was practically standing on end.

Quan Jing quickly glanced at Lan Shanyang twice before whispering, "It's said that...it's said that the Emperor met Miss Qin that day, and Consort Hu probably remembered it, so she deliberately made things difficult for Miss Qin today!"

"fart!"

Lan Shanyang roared.

The panoramic view was so frightened that it immediately knelt on the ground, not even raising its head.

"What? She's ready to kill herself just because I said a few words to her? She's gone too far!"

Lan Shanyang was now furious, completely forgetting that he was the one who arranged for someone to test Qin Kou'er's abilities.

Right now, all he could think about was that Hu Qianyu was going against him and was about to cause him trouble.

"Go! Go and find me a few more of the women from the West Courtyard, and those concubines and mistresses who came to the palace later! I'm in a good mood tonight and want to drink with them. Go! Arrange for them all in my bedchamber! Let them drink to their hearts' content! Make it lively for me!"

Lan Shanyang stood on the ground with her hands on her hips, determined to anger Hu Qianyu tonight.

Quan Ting immediately looked up at Lan Shanyang, hesitated, and whispered, "Your Majesty, there's court tomorrow morning, why aren't you asleep so late?"

"Sleep my ass! How can I sleep after that bitch Hu Qianyu has tormented me like this? Go and call for more people! The more the better!"

"Yes! This servant will take care of it immediately!"

Quan Jing quickly stood up and went down to make proper arrangements and preparations.

Lan Shanyang turned his head to look at the dark direction opposite, and said through gritted teeth, "You bastard! I'll make you furious tonight!"

Thinking this, Lan Shanyang summoned the eunuch on night duty: "Go! Tell Consort Hu that she should serve me tonight! Strip her naked, wrap her up, and carry her over to my bedchamber. She must stand at the entrance of my bedchamber and is not allowed to come in!"

The young eunuch had no idea what Lan Shanyang was planning, but he dared not ask and could only hurry down to give the orders.

The emperor stripped naked before letting the concubine in, what is he trying to do?

Lan Shanyang turned his head and gave a cold smile. If you want to cause trouble, then cause trouble on a big scale!

Let's see who's afraid of whom!

---Aside---

Hehe, did you write well today? Ugh, that nasty woman, I hate her so much, I wish I could make her furious! Annoying!

The cat's been in a bad mood lately, so it's resorting to drastic measures. Who knows who might be the unlucky one!

I'm so tired, I'm exhausted!

Meow, time to get to work~
