Everyone in the room could see what the Queen Mother meant, but no one dared to speak for her.

Even though she felt unwilling, she could only grit her teeth, swallow her anger temporarily, and picked up the last cup of tea.

She slowly walked up to Song Qingxue, knelt down at her feet reluctantly, held the cup of tea in both hands and handed it to her, then said in a delicate voice: "Auntie Huang, please have some tea."

Anyone could hear the grievance in her tone, and Song Qingxue was no exception, but she didn't fall for Zhao Wanqiu's trick.

She simply took the cup of tea, took a sip, and then handed the cup back to Zhao Wanqiu.

Then a palace maid beside her handed her a red envelope. She took it and gave it to Zhao Wanqiu.

Zhao Wanqiu was extremely upset, but she could only say to her obediently: "Thank you, Aunt Huang."

"You're welcome. Just live a good life with the Third Prince in the future. Don't think too much." Song Qingxue responded with a smile, but there was a warning in her words.

Zhao Wanqiu was born with a very tactful mind, so she naturally understood the meaning of her words clearly.

She lowered her eyes to hide the fierceness in them, bit her lip and whispered, "Wanqiu will remember the teachings of the Imperial Aunt and will live a good life with His Highness."

"It's good that you remember it. Get up." Song Qingxue knew that Zhao Wanqiu was dissatisfied, but she liked to see that she was dissatisfied in her heart but had to appear respectful on the surface.

This is mental torture. She can guarantee that after just a short while today, Zhao Wanqiu will be angry for several days when she returns home.

As expected, in this struggle within the deep palace walls, the best strategy is to win over the enemy's heart.

Although this level of mental torture was nothing, she felt happy when she thought that Zhao Wanqiu would be unhappy.

…

After paying their respects, Zhao Wanqiu and Xiahou Chun did not stay for a moment longer. They quickly said goodbye to the Queen Mother and Concubine Zheng and left the palace.

After the two men left, Song Qingxue could no longer hold back her laughter and covered her mouth with her handkerchief.

When Concubine Zheng saw this, her face immediately turned dark.

"The princess must have remembered something. She is smiling so happily."

Song Qingxue was not panicked. She slowly stopped laughing and then made up a story: "I just remembered the dog raised in the general's mansion."

When she said this, she seemed to be excited, and moved closer to Concubine Zheng, and continued: "My Lady Concubine, let me tell you, the dog in the general's mansion is not obedient, but it wants to eat bones. So in order to make it behave, I can only hold a bone in front of it every time. Since it wants to eat bones, it will naturally listen to me and do whatever I tell it to do."

"Is that so?" Concubine Zheng could tell she was making a veiled complaint, and said unhappily, "I have never heard of General Song raising any disobedient dogs."

"It's okay. Now that I've told you, you'll know." Song Qingxue said, and then sighed with a gloomy face.

"It's a pity. The dog was too disobedient. Although I could use bones to coax it into obedience temporarily, I couldn't make it obedient forever. Later, it did something evil and bit someone, so the people in the mansion beat it to death."

"How dare you!" Concubine Zheng was so angry that she slammed her palm on the table.

Song Qingxue quickly pretended to be frightened, looked at Concubine Zheng timidly, and said aggrievedly: "I just feel a little sorry that the dog in the general's mansion was beaten to death. Why are you angry, Concubine?"

Concubine Zheng snorted, "You are really good at pretending to be pitiful!"

"I didn't." Song Qingxue blinked her eyes, her face still aggrieved. "I just said that the dog in the mansion died, and you got angry, Madam Concubine. I don't quite understand."

The Queen Mother watched from the side and thought it was about time, so she spoke up to stop the two men.

"Okay, Shuyue, Qingxue is just thinking about her dog, what are you doing?" Looking up at Qingxue, the Queen Mother softened her tone and said, "Shuyue, you have been busy with the marriage with the prince these days and you are really tired. Go back and have a good rest first."

Since the Empress Dowager had already spoken, Concubine Zheng naturally could not continue to make a big deal out of it.

She glared at Song Qingxue fiercely, then stood up and walked out.

Concubine Zheng had just left the house, and before she had gone far, Song Qingxue laughed again.

Concubine Zheng stood outside the door and listened to her laughter for a while, then finally gritted her teeth and left.

Song Qingxue, she wanted to see how long this woman could laugh!

Did she really think that the Queen Mother and the regent who had become a waste could support her for the rest of her life?

When Chun'er achieves her ambition, she will make the Queen Mother and Song Qingxue, those two bitches, become slaves and maids and humiliate them thoroughly!

Concubine Zheng left with resentment, but Song Qingxue in the room didn't care at all.

The Queen Mother looked at this and felt helpless.

“Qingxue, what are you doing? Why are you offending the Concubine by speaking like this today?”

Song Qingxue restrained her smile and winked at her, "Aunt, some people need to be punished."

"Um?"

"You are so smart, you should know what Qingxue just said, right?" Song Qingxue did not explain clearly and continued to play guessing games with the empress dowager.

The Queen Mother heard this and smiled, then gently tapped her forehead.

"You."

"Hehe." Song Qingxue pouted playfully and hugged the Queen Mother directly, "Fortunately, I have my aunt to support me, otherwise I wouldn't dare to do this."

"You still know." The Queen Mother's tone was quite helpless, "You called Zhao Wanqiu a dog in front of the Concubine Dowager. I'm afraid she will hate you in the future."

Song Qingxue was not afraid at all. What she wanted was for the Concubine Dowager to hate her.

The fact that Xiahou Chongyuan's legs were almost paralyzed reminded her that the world was already beginning to repair the plot that she had destroyed. If she continued to sit there and wait for death, she would have no choice but to die with Xiahou Chongyuan.

She couldn't let this happen, so she decided to completely disrupt the plot.

Anyway, Concubine Zheng will attack her and Xiahou Chongyuan for Xiahou Chun in the future, so she might as well provoke Concubine Zheng first.

Given Concubine Zheng's personality, she would definitely lose her patience and urge Xiahou Chun to take action quickly.

She just didn't believe that the original plot was really that powerful.

Since God arranged for her to be here, it means that there is more than one ending for the characters in this world.

If Xiahou Chun and Zhao Wanqiu can be the protagonists, others can do the same.

She must fight with Fang Tian!

…

Song Qingxue stayed in the palace for another whole day, but when she returned to the palace, she was surprised to find that Xiahou Chongyuan had not returned yet.

"Liu Yue, where is the prince?"

Ever since Xiahou Chongyuan moved into Chunhui Garden, Liu Yue, who was left in the main courtyard by her, also moved in.

"Your Highness, the prince has gone to see the eldest prince."

"Hmm? You went to the Grand Prince's place, why haven't you come back yet?"

"I don't know."

"When he left, did he say how long he would be back?"

"I never said that."

"That's strange."

Xiahou Chongyuan's leg hasn't fully recovered yet, but he's already been staying out all night.

Song Qingxue just felt that she was becoming more and more ruthless day by day.

Come on, just wait a little longer.
