Isn't this old hag subtly mocking her princess for her lowly birth, saying she can only be compared to palace maids?

She said that it wasn't an exaggeration to say that this old hag came from a family of military generals and that her words and actions were crude and uncultured!

For over a decade, Chen Ziyun was the eldest daughter of the Chen family, and for over twenty years, she was the empress, always surrounded by admirers and held in a high position.

Now I've actually been publicly rebuked by a maid!

Unfortunately, this banquet was specially arranged by Meng Qi for his master, specifically for Ji Fengyao, that bandit. She couldn't retaliate and could only endure it!

Chen Ziyun was so angry that her face turned ashen. She felt a mouthful of blood stuck in her chest, making it hard to breathe and causing her heart to ache!

"You've done a good job with this girl," Mo Linxian couldn't help but praise.

"Of course, Bailu and Xique are my right-hand men here," Ji Fengyao replied without any hesitation.

Seeing that Chen Ziyun was so angry she was about to faint, Ji Fengyao turned around and scolded Bai Lu: "Bai Lu, how many times have I told you? The palace is not like home. You have to be extra polite when you talk to people in the palace. Don't be so stubborn and always speak the truth. You'll offend people!"

"Your Highness is right to reprimand me. I will be more discerning in the future and try my best to speak well of the Empress Dowager," Bai Lu said obediently, bowing respectfully to admit her mistake.

"Pfft!" Mo Linxian, still inside the extreme fire, burst out laughing.

Chen Ziyun: "!!!"

You damned bandits!

Do you have any culture?

Is this what you call being polite?!

Before she could recover from her extreme anger, the little bandit girl grabbed her hand very warmly and said to her with a very sincere smile, "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, this girl is naive and doesn't know how to speak properly. If she has offended Your Majesty, please forgive her for being young and ignorant."

She can't speak.

So you can talk now!

Chen Ziyun suppressed the urge to shove the little bandit's hand away and said with a forced smile, "Your Highness is joking. How could I possibly hold a grudge against a mere maid? The food and wine are served. Please take a seat, Your Highness."

After saying that, Chen Ziyun tried her best to pull her hand back;

Ji Fengyao, however, warmly grasped her hand and said with a grin, "Empress Dowager, you take such good care of yourself! Look at your hands, so delicate and smooth, it's truly enviable!"

As the young female bandit spoke, she lightly and roughly groped Chen Ziyun's hand a few times, looking exactly like a female hooligan taking advantage of someone.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Mo Linxian focused his divine sense on Chen Ziyun's brow with great speed and concentration, and secretly transferred a wisp of pure spiritual energy to Chen Ziyun, opening a Heavenly Night for her, a very high-grade one!

In an instant.

Chen Ziyun saw that the little female bandit in front of her was suddenly enveloped in a layer of shimmering white light, as if the little female bandit had suddenly acquired a halo.

She must be seeing things!

Just as Chen Ziyun couldn't help but raise her hand to rub her eyes, Ji Fengyao seemingly casually let go of her hand, went to the seat Chen Ziyun had prepared for her, and sat down casually.

Chen Ziyun kept staring at the young female bandit and her servant, feeling that the two of them were radiant with divine light, like fairies descended from the heavens. She wondered: What's wrong with her?

She's only in her early forties, and her eyesight is already bad?

"Your Majesty, the banquet is about to begin." Meng Qi, who was standing next to her, thought that Chen Ziyun was holding a grudge against the little bandit and thought that she was very inconsiderate and didn't know her place. He reminded her in a cold voice with some displeasure.

“Okay, okay, play the music, start dancing, and begin the banquet,” Chen Ziyun instinctively followed Meng Qi’s words, and subconsciously turned to look at Meng Qi.
