Ouyang Lan looked angry and pointed out the women who had previously had grievances with Jiang Qingqing one by one with resentful eyes.
Among them, the two wives of the Xuanwei Envoy and the Guanglu Temple Minister were the first to be affected.
They saw that they were being rebuked by the Queen Mother.
They both knelt down with a plop.
"Her Majesty, spare my life!"
"Please forgive me, Your Majesty, I didn't mean it!"
They suddenly knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
But inside I was filled with endless fear.
Help! Who could have imagined that they would be implicated in the empress dowager's wrath just because of a few rude words. If their husband's family is implicated as a result, they will really die unjustly!
"Shut up!" Ouyang Lan looked angry and stared at the two of them with resentful eyes.
"Rongzhi, slap them hard in the face!"
It was also the first time that Rong Zhi saw the Empress Dowager so angry. She was afraid that the Empress Dowager's anger would implicate herself.
After all, it was he who threw the pill away before.
She felt very sad when she thought about the pill that could rejuvenate her and how she had once disdained it.
If she had known earlier, she should have bravely stepped forward to test the poison when everyone else was mocking and speculating that the pill might be poisonous. If she had done so, the chance to regain youth would have been hers. Oh my, what a pity...
Rongzhi felt infinite regret in her heart.
But her hands were not idle. She selected a few servants to follow her and went up to slap the wives of the envoy's family in the face.
For a moment, the "pa pa pa" sounds and the whimpering cries merged into one.
Everyone watched their noses with their eyes and their hearts with their noses, and they didn't even dare to breathe heavily, for fear that the angry empress dowager would take her anger out on them.
"Qingqing, look... these women love to gossip. I've been fed up with them for a long time. They even dared to mock and ridicule you before. I'm going to punish them severely now to vent your anger, okay?"
Ouyang Lan was furious. Finally, she rubbed her hands awkwardly, looked at Jiang Qingqing, and said with a flattering smile.
"Qingqing, General Xiaoyao is the emperor's powerful right-hand man. I felt close to you the moment I saw you. Please don't be estranged from me."
"Speaking of which, it's all these women's fault for being short-sighted. They caused me to misunderstand you."
"I don't have a daughter. In my heart, I look at you like my own daughter."
"Look... do you have any left over from the longevity pills that Concubine Li took earlier?" Ouyang Lan looked tentative. She grinned and showed what she thought was the kindest smile.
However, she forgot that she was in a hurry and hit her forehead, and her face was covered in blood.
At this moment, the blood had gradually solidified and turned dark black. Coupled with her grin, she looked more like a demon crawling out of the eighteen levels of hell.
[Wow, this ferocious-looking old witch is so disgusting~]
How could she say such disgusting things without batting an eyelid? It's so disgusting I'm getting goosebumps...
Jiang Tiantian complained inwardly.
Jiang Qingqing: Yes, my daughter is right.
Jiang Qingqing really didn't expect that the Queen Mother of a country could be so shameless.
Jiang Qingqing was complaining in her heart when she was named, but her face still showed the same aggrieved and painful look as before.
"Her Majesty, that old woman only gave me one longevity pill. I couldn't even take care of my grandmother at home. I wanted to give it to the Her Majesty first, but..."
Jiang Qingqing sighed softly with a sad face.
"Then have you ever asked where she lives? What's her name?" Ouyang Lan asked without giving up.
Jiang Qingqing shook her head when she heard that.
"After she gave me the elixir, she disappeared without a trace. This is why I believe the elixir she gave me is extraordinary."
Jiang Qingqing: Haha, no need to look for it. I was just making that up, old lady. She does have the longevity elixir, but she won’t let Tiantian take it out to honor the empress dowager.
Hehe, she must be unable to sleep or eat well for the rest of her life, and she must be extremely itchy...
Jiang Qingqing felt extremely happy at this moment.
When the Queen Mother heard this, the only light in her eyes completely extinguished...
"Don't be discouraged, Sister Lan. Qingqing and that old immortal are destined to be together. Who knows, maybe one day in the future you will meet that old immortal."
"When the time comes, can't you just ask Niece Qingqing to ask for another magic pill for you?"
Seeing this, Li Feier on the side immediately responded, saying it was to comfort the other person, rather than to continue stabbing him in the heart.
Upon hearing this, Ouyang Lan knew that the possibility was slim, but she still smiled kindly and gave Jiang Qingqing a few words of advice.
Jiang Qingqing lowered her head and nodded obediently.
She was really afraid that she would laugh out loud if she stared at the Queen Mother's extremely funny face.
Li Feier, who was standing by, saw this and smiled without any hesitation.
She and Ouyang Lan were about the same age when they entered the palace, and they fought each other all their lives.
It’s a pity that the late emperor favored the son she gave birth to, so Ouyang Lan became the final winner.
In order to take revenge on herself, she not only pointed out the niece she had raised with great difficulty to her younger brother.
He also exiled his own son, Prince Yong, to the cold southwestern frontier, where he was not allowed to return to the capital without being summoned.
The six sons born to the late emperor, and the other princes have all been made kings and have gone to their fiefdoms with their mothers.
She was the only one who was imprisoned in this world by Ouyang Lan on the grounds of deep sisterly love and loneliness in the imperial city.
Come to think of it, isn't it just to show off their fruits of victory to me day and night?
Li Feier thought that her struggle with Ouyang Lan in this life was doomed to fail, but unexpectedly, Jiang Qingqing gave her a huge surprise.
"Ouch!" Li Feier suddenly screamed and covered her stomach in pain.
