Chapter 154 Cousin, Believe Me

Song Qianxue paused, turned around and looked at the woman who was speaking with red eyes in confusion.

Concubine Li was in great pain from being thrown down, and she yelled angrily, "Which palace are you from? How dare you run away after bumping into me? Who gave you the courage?"

Ying'er, who was standing by, saw the woman's appearance clearly and whispered to Concubine Li: "Your Majesty, she looks like Miss Snow, the one who saved the Emperor!"

Seeing Concubine Li's angry and arrogant face, Song Qianxue felt wronged and scared. She lowered her head, looking like she had done something wrong.

After hearing what Ying'er said, Concubine Li walked over to Song Qianxue and looked her over. She wanted to scold her for being blind, but now that she knew she was her cousin's savior, her anger subsided by half.

"Forget it, forget it. Since you saved my cousin, I won't blame you. Be careful next time!"

Song Qianxue lowered her head and nodded aggrievedly.

Ying'er walked over and said to her, "This is Consort Li Guifei, the emperor's cousin. The emperor loves her the most. Miss Xue, why don't you pay your respects to her?"

Hearing that the emperor favored her the most, Song Qianxue raised her head and looked at Concubine Li.

The woman in front of me was pretty, but the expression on her face was too arrogant and she looked difficult to get along with.

Thinking that this was another woman of her beloved man, Song Qianxue felt uncomfortable. She didn't understand why he had so many women, and she couldn't help but shed tears.

“…”

Concubine Li was waiting for her to pay her respects, and when she saw her suddenly burst into tears, she frowned unhappily.

"Ying'er, did I abuse her?"

Ying'er shook her head: "No!"

Ying'er knew Concubine Li's temperament. She was arrogant and domineering. No matter what the reason was, if someone made her unhappy, she would definitely give them a good scolding.

But because of what happened last time, although I can’t say that he has changed completely, he is no longer as arrogant as before.

Now that he was knocked down by the woman in front of him, he did not intend to pursue the matter because she was the emperor's savior. But this woman actually cried?

Look at her, she is crying uncontrollably, her eyes are red, as if I had bullied her.

Concubine Li rolled her eyes and said, "So I didn't bully or punish you, why are you crying?"

“…”

Song Qianxue didn't say anything, but continued crying hard.

The more she thought about it, the sadder she became. Why did she fall in love with a man like that? Why did he have so many women? They were obviously very happy when they were in the small village!

The palace maids passing by saw Song Qianxue crying with a sad face, and they all assumed that Concubine Li was bullying others again, and looked at her with sympathy.

Seeing the sympathy for Song Qianxue in the palace maid's eyes, Concubine Li threw her sleeves and said, "What are you looking at? Believe it or not, I will peel off your skin!"

Several palace maids were frightened, bowed to her and hurried away.

Concubine Li was already upset, and when she saw her crying non-stop, the anger that she had just suppressed came out again and she yelled at her.

"Cry, cry, cry, cry, all you do is cry. I'm asking you a question, why are you crying? I'm not bullying you!"

Song Qianxue tried hard to suppress the sadness in her heart, her eyes red and pitiful.

"No... Madam didn't... didn't bully me, it's my own problem!"

Concubine Li snorted coldly: "This is your problem in the first place. Why do you have to make it seem like I've abused you?"

Song Qianxue gritted her teeth and looked up at Concubine Li: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. It's my fault. I shouldn't have failed to salute you!"

As she said this, she slapped herself hard.

The "pop" sound is very loud.

This slap frightened Concubine Li. She frowned and said, "Why do you want to hit yourself? I didn't say I would punish you."

Song Qianxue's face hurt. She lowered her head and cried, "I did something wrong. I am willing to be punished!"

Seeing that this woman was acting strangely, crying and slapping herself at times, Concubine Li was afraid that she would go crazy, so she quickly pulled Ying'er away.

"Let's go, let's go!"

Although Ying'er was confused, she still followed her and left quickly.

“…”

After watching them leave, Song Qianxue touched her hurt face...

The next morning.

After the morning court session, Mo Cangyan returned to the Purple Gold Palace and saw Song Qianxue standing at the door.

Seeing her with her head down, her hands clenched awkwardly, and a look of being extremely wronged, he walked up to her and asked.

"What's wrong?"

Song Qianxue raised her head to look at him, worried that he would see the slap on her face, so she raised her hand hastily to block it, and then said aggrievedly.

"Since the Emperor has returned to the palace, it's time for me to leave the palace and go back. I can't stay here forever..."

Mo Cangyan noticed the slap marks on her face and frowned: "What happened to your face? Who hit you?"

Song Qianxue shook her head: "It doesn't matter, Your Majesty, please let me out of the palace!"

Mo Cangyan narrowed his deep eyes and his tone became cold.

"What's going on?"

Upon seeing this, the palace maid beside her hurried forward and told him what happened yesterday.

Mo Cangyan heard that Song Qianxue met Concubine Li yesterday, and she accidentally bumped into Concubine Li.

Hearing this, he understood. Thinking of Concubine Li's temper, she must be bullying others again!

In Xiuchun Palace.

Concubine Li was leisurely warming herself by the fire and drinking hot tea.

At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open, and cold wind blew in, making her shiver.

"Who is it, in the middle of winter?"

The old nanny walked in and looked down at her: "Empress Li, the emperor invites you to come over!"

Concubine Li wanted to be angry, but when she heard that it was her cousin calling her, a happy smile immediately appeared on her face, and she followed the nanny to the Purple Gold Palace happily like a peacock.

When she arrived at the Purple Gold Palace, she looked up and saw the handsome man sitting on the high seat, and ran towards him happily.

"Cousin, you're looking for me!"

Mo Cangyan looked at her coldly: "Concubine Li, why don't you kneel when you see me?"

Concubine Li was stunned for a moment. She didn't kneel down to greet him when she met him before!

Just as she was thinking about it, she was slapped hard in the face and fell to the ground.

She covered her face and looked at Mo Cangyan in disbelief: "Cousin..."

Mo Cangyan said in a cold tone: "Don't look at me like that. When you bully others, they will feel the same as you do now!"

"Someone else?"

Concubine Li was puzzled, tears welling up in her eyes: "Cousin, I don't know what you are talking about!"

“…”

Mo Cangyan looked at her coldly, the chill in his eyes was self-evident.

Seeing him looking at her so coldly, Concubine Li thought of something and turned to look at Song Qianxue who was standing beside her.

When she saw the slap mark on her cheek, she immediately understood what had happened and started crying and shaking her head.

"Cousin, I didn't bully anyone. I didn't bully her. It was she who... "

“That’s enough!”

Mo Cangyan interrupted her impatiently: "I know what kind of personality you have. You will definitely bully anyone who doesn't meet your expectations. I thought you would change after what happened last time, but I didn't expect you to change at all. You are still so spoiled and willful!"

Concubine Li shook her head: "Cousin, please believe me, I never hit her!"

"Okay, I have indulged you before, but I won't do that this time!"

He said coldly: "Concubine Li has committed a crime, so she is punished to kneel outside for half an hour. Nanny Fang will supervise her and not allow anyone to plead for mercy!"
