"Come at me if you dare! What kind of person are you to bully a child!"
Jiang Luoluo's eyes were sharp, and she raised her hand to slap Consort Lu across the face, yelling, "Go to hell!"
"Smack!"
A burst of crisp applause erupted in the silent Imperial Garden, startling the maids and servants so much that they trembled and dared not even breathe.
Consort Lu was stunned by the slap, her cheek burning with pain.
She was disciplined by her father from a young age, and the only person who ever hit her was her father.
After entering the palace, she was doted on by Xie Qiyu, and Empress Dowager Du treated her like her own daughter.
She was used to being reckless and lawless, and she never expected that someone would dare to slap her in public today.
She covered her face, looking at Jiang Luoluo with a stunned expression, her eyes filled with shock and anger, and a hint of disbelief.
Not only did he not bow to her, but he also slapped her across the face right away.
This is absolutely outrageous!
The maids and servants standing nearby were sweating profusely and dared not move.
They had followed Consort Lu for a long time and were used to her domineering and arrogant behavior, but this time, it seemed that they had encountered someone even crazier than her!
Consort Lu covered her face, suppressing her rage. Her eyes were dark as she sneered:
"Jiang Luoluo, you crazy woman! You're just a lowly princess, how dare you beat me! You'll lose your head!"
She glanced at Jiang Luoluo with disdain, her voice leisurely: "Besides, the one you beat was a concubine who was pregnant with the emperor's child."
The words had barely left his mouth when, "Slap!"
Another crisp sound.
Jiang Luoluo showed no mercy and slapped him again with even more force than before.
The blow knocked Consort Lu's head to the side, and even drew blood from the corner of her mouth.
She stared coldly at Consort Lu, her words like knives: "Beating you is too lenient; plotting against Empress Xiao is a crime punishable by death."
The surroundings fell into a deathly silence.
Everyone was so shocked by this sentence that they froze and dared not breathe.
Consort Lu's pupils suddenly contracted, and she was so shocked that she couldn't speak.
She did it extremely discreetly, believing her methods to be flawless.
Even Xie Qiyu and Empress Dowager Du couldn't find any clues, so how did Jiang Luoluo know?
Her heart pounded, her face shifting from shock to ferocity. She quickly regained her composure and hissed sharply:
"Nonsense! You're spouting nonsense! Guards, seize this madwoman!"
With a clang, the sword was drawn from its sheath!
The cold light gleamed, pointing directly at the maids and servants; the blade still retained a hint of murderous intent, sending chills down one's spine.
Those people had no choice but to stand still, none of them daring to step forward.
Although they feared Consort Lu, they were even more afraid of Prince Yi, who was rumored to be cold-blooded and bloodthirsty.
Rumor has it that Prince Yi is a ruthless killer; anyone who enters his household is considered family.
If you rush in like that, you might lose your head in the next second.
"What are you all standing there for?" Consort Lu roared, her eyes contorted with rage. "Tear this madwoman's mouth apart!"
But her maids and servants still dared not move an inch.
The maids and servants looked at each other in bewilderment. How could this be?
Empress Xiao, didn't Empress Xiao suffer from premature birth and severe hemorrhage, resulting in the death of both her child and him?
But looking at Princess Yi's confident demeanor and then at Consort Lu's hysterical and panicked state, could there be another hidden story?
At that moment, everyone's heart skipped a beat.
Seeing that no one was making a move, Consort Lu became completely enraged and lunged at Jiang Luoluo, her eyes filled with hatred, wishing she could tear her mouth apart!
But Jiang Luoluo sneered, a cold glint flashing in her eyes, and raised her foot to deliver a fierce side kick.
"Bang!"
A solid kick landed on Consort Lu's knee, causing her legs to buckle and she to fall heavily to her knees with a thud!
The Imperial Garden was deathly silent.
Jiang Luoluo looked down at her, her eyes sharp as blades, a cold smile playing on her lips.
"Consort Lu, you have brought this upon yourself. If Heaven doesn't punish you, I will."
That kick nearly cost Consort Lu half her life.
She had always been pampered in the harem, how could she withstand such a heavy blow?
His knees throbbed with excruciating pain, and cold sweat poured down his face instantly. The maids and servants were terrified and dared not utter a sound.
Just moments ago, Consort Lu was all high and mighty, but now she was like a deflated balloon, slumped to the ground in a sorry state.
Her face contorted with rage, she screamed hysterically, "Jiang Luoluo, you want to take me in?"
Do you have the ability? The Emperor won't let you get away with this!
I am carrying the imperial heir, and you have today assaulted a concubine and framed the imperial heir.
Even if Xie Yizhi intervenes, he won't be able to protect you then!
Jiang Luoluo slowly squatted down, reached out and pinched Consort Lu's chin, forcing her to look directly at her.
His voice was soft and gentle, yet it carried a chilling undertone: "Consort Lu, Consort Lu, you are truly laughable."
Are you carrying the Emperor's child?
A hint of mockery lingered in her eyes as her gaze swept over Consort Lu's lower abdomen. She uttered two words slowly and deliberately: "Du Yi."
These two words struck like a thunderbolt. Consort Lu's pupils constricted sharply, her whole body trembled violently, and even her breathing became erratic.
She instinctively shook her head, her voice trembling: "You...you're talking nonsense!"
"I'm carrying the Emperor's child!"
Jiang Luoluo chuckled softly, her voice clear and melodious like jade beads falling onto a plate, yet each word was like a knife:
"Consort Lu, do you really want me to speak so bluntly in front of so many people?"
Do you really think nobody knows about your dirty deeds?
Consort Lu cried out in alarm and covered her ears with both hands, seemingly trying to block out Jiang Luoluo's words, but her face was already as pale as paper.
