As she approached, she curtsied to Rong Qingqing, then her gaze fell upon Shangguan Yanran.
She suddenly chuckled. "Miss Shangguan asked who spoils me? Don't you know? In this world, besides the Emperor, who else can spoil me?"
Shangguan Yanran's expression changed slightly, and she sneered, "Stop trying to glorify yourself!"
"Even Her Majesty the Empress isn't in a hurry, so why is Miss Shangguan so anxious?" Hua Yin's eyes flashed with sarcasm. "Or are you also interested in the Emperor, and that's why you're jealous of me?"
Shangguan Yanran looked at her in astonishment, then realized what she meant and said with a laugh, "I didn't realize that Miss Hua was not only rude but also so good at talking nonsense. I heard that Miss Hua will soon be married off to Jinzhou. The journey is long, and she may never be able to return to the capital. In a way, she is a pitiful person."
Hua Yin's expression changed, and she gripped the handkerchief in her hand tightly. After a long while, she suddenly said, "Who said I was going to marry into Jinzhou? My imperial cousin wouldn't bear to part with me." As she said this, she deliberately glanced at Rong Qingqing.
Shangguan Yanran felt uncomfortable after hearing this, but don't misunderstand, she didn't have any strange thoughts about Xie Jingrun, she was just uncomfortable on Rong Qingqing's behalf.
She glanced at Rong Qingqing with some concern, but breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Rong Qingqing showed no sign of distress.
Rong Qingqing, who had been silent until now, glanced at Hua Yin and suddenly said, "Since Miss Hua doesn't like Jinzhou, why not marry into the Xiongnu? I've heard that Xiongnu men have a custom of sharing a wife with other men. I'm sure Miss Hua would like that place very much."
"After returning to the palace, I will discuss this matter with the Emperor. Recently, the Xiongnu have been making moves. You are the Emperor's cousin and have received so much favor from him. At this time, it is only right that you step forward and do something for the court. Moreover, a marriage alliance with the Xiongnu will be recorded in history. When the time comes, let the Emperor bestow upon you the title of princess, and you will marry into the desert in grand style, which is certainly better than marrying into Jinzhou in obscurity."
The color drained from Hua Yin's face instantly; she bit her lip and glared at her intently.
Rong Qingqing narrowed her eyes slightly.
Out of consideration for her being Xie Jingrun's cousin, she let her go time and time again. Little did she expect that she would try to climb over her again and again.
This is intolerable!
"Someone come here!"
“We are here.” Xiao Tao and Xing Chun immediately stepped forward.
“Miss Hua has repeatedly been rude and disrespectful to me, showing no regard for me. She deserves to be slapped!” Rong Qingqing said lightly.
Xiao Tao had long disliked Hua Yin. Upon hearing her master's words, she respectfully responded and, together with Xing Chun, restrained Hua Yin from the left and right.
"Slap, slap, slap..."
Hua Yin initially thought Rong Qingqing was bluffing, but after receiving several solid slaps to the face, she finally realized what was happening and screamed like a madwoman, "You, who dares to touch me? I am the Emperor's woman..." As she spoke, her eyes turned venomous as she glared at Rong Qingqing, "You jealous woman, just because I am the second person to serve the Emperor, you want to kill me? You have no tolerance for others and are not worthy of being Empress."
Upon hearing this, Xingchun's expression changed drastically. She slapped her hard across the face, causing her head to tilt to the side.
"How dare you spout nonsense in front of Her Majesty! I'll tear your mouth apart!" Xingchun was furious and was about to hit her again when Rong Qingqing stopped her.
"Xingchun!"
Xingchun frowned, put down her hand, and stepped aside, not daring to look at her expression.
