Qin Qingyao seemed to have slowly understood why Ling Anli always liked to follow behind Lin Xiafeng, because life was boring, and following Lin Xiafeng would be interesting!
As soon as she saw Qin Qingyao being blocked in the room by Concubine Yun, with two maids holding down her shoulders and unable to move, her face was filled with excitement, as if she felt a sense of satisfaction that "you are finally getting your comeuppance".
"Mother, why are you here?"
When the eldest lady of the Lin family saw her promising daughter, she was so happy that she almost wanted to walk sideways.
"We've been waiting for you in the garden for ages, thinking you were getting dressed, so we took the liberty of coming over to take a look! Have we not disturbed your business?"
Yunpin smiled sweetly, "It's okay, I was just about to go to the banquet, but when I came here to look at the child, I saw..."
Yunpin's words came to an abrupt halt. She then looked at Qin Qingyao and then at the Crown Prince. Her face was filled with an expression of being unable to speak and not being able to believe what she had seen.
Everyone in the room followed Concubine Yun's gaze and looked at the two people. Why did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Princess Wuling appear in Concubine Yao's hall at the same time?
It's strange for either of you to be here, isn't it?
Moreover, what did the two of them do that Yunpin saw that they didn’t even bother to attend the dinner?
Ling Anli said, "Qin Qingyao, you've done something shameful again and been caught red-handed, right?"
"Just now you were trying to seduce Prince Duan in the garden, scaring him into running away. Now you're here to seduce the Crown Prince. How could you be so shameless? Do you still have Prince Wuling in your eyes?"
As soon as Ling Anli finished speaking, the whole room was in an uproar. Everyone widened their eyes, took a deep breath, covered their mouths, and looked doubtful about life, as if Qin Qingyao had led them into a new world.
Qin Qingyao was held down by two old maids and couldn't move, otherwise she would definitely return that slap to Ling Anli!
She lowered her head and smiled. "Haha, you said that this princess came to Concubine Yao's palace to seduce the prince? Then I want to ask, how did I know that the prince would come to Concubine Yao's place today?"
She turned her head and smiled at the Crown Prince, "Your Highness, do you often come to visit Lady Yao? I ran into you on my first visit, the probability is quite high!"
The prince pointed at Qin Qingyao and said, "What nonsense!"
Concubine Yao was truly in tears this time, looking as if she couldn't bear to live any longer. "Princess Wu Ling, why on earth...why are you so slanderous and slanderous to harm me and my son?"
"I didn't even know you before. Why did you want to hurt me? Why?"
Qin Qingyao finally understood the deep meaning behind Concubine Xian's reluctance to come to Yongfu Palace to see her child. This harem was not a place for human beings to stay.
There are no humans here, only ghosts.
She can be as gentle to you as her own sister one second, and kill you with her own hands the next.
Qin Qingyao was actually able to desert her post at this time. She was still feeling fortunate that she had married Dugu Yu instead of entering the harem.
She really admires those predecessors who were able to thrive in the harem and dominate the emperor. If she were a concubine, she would definitely die in the first episode!
Qin Qingyao was completely out of her mind, allowing others to point fingers at her, laugh at her, or mock and criticize her. Her ears were buzzing and she couldn't hear anything.
She also experienced what it felt like to be criticized by everyone. Those people stood on the moral high ground, sometimes teaching her earnestly how to behave, and sometimes condemning her for being guilty of a crime and even wanting to spit on her.
Even Concubine Yao and the Crown Prince joined the ranks of those who condemned her. In order to clear themselves and prevent everyone from investigating why the Crown Prince appeared at Concubine Yao's place so late at night, those two people simply wished that Qin Qingyao would be executed on the spot!
It's funny to say, has she achieved her goal? Has she completely helped the Crown Prince and Concubine Yao out of their predicament?
She dragged Dugu Yu to help Lu Qifeng and almost got Dugu Yu a concubine. She dragged her second brother to help the prince and caused her second brother to fall seriously ill. This time she acted alone and finally killed herself.
It turns out that she is even more hated than the prince. When the people behind her saw her suffer, they even gave up their plan to harm the prince?
Qin Qingyao didn't pay any attention at all, so she didn't know when someone ran out to call for help.
In the original novel, Ling Jingxuan and Dugu Yu did not come to Yongfu Palace. After all, not everyone is like the prince, who would go to the harem out of stupidity.
But today they came.
The moment Qin Qingyao saw Dugu Yu's figure appear, she first thought she was seeing things, then her eyes became hot and tears began to fall uncontrollably.
Just now, she was accused, ridiculed and even humiliated by so many people in a 360-degree circle, but she remained calm and had no reaction. She even complained that she was not good at playing palace fighting dramas.
Now when she saw Dugu Yu, the grievance in her heart was uncontrollable and directly overwhelmed her.
When Dugu Yu saw Qin Qingyao being held down by two old maids, his serious face, without even a frown, frightened all the women in the room into silence.
The two old maids unconsciously loosened their grip, and Qin Qingyao was free. She ran directly towards Dugu Yu, bumped into his arms and hugged his waist.
She bit his clothes tightly and hid her face in his chest. Even though she was almost out of breath, she refused to open her mouth and cry loudly, not wanting others to see her tearful face.
Dugu Yu held her back with one hand and gently patted the back of her head twice with the other hand. He said nothing, but just scanned the faces of everyone in the room with his eyes.
It seemed as if he wanted to remember who were the people who bullied his wife!
In Ling Jingxuan's eyes, Qin Qingyao is always in a state of combat, stretching out his sharp little claws, ready to scratch your skin at any time.
But she was bullied so badly today, for some reason, he felt a little unhappy.
Dugu Yu didn't say anything. He lost his temper first. "What's going on? They sent people to invite King Wu Ling in such a hurry. Now they're here. Can anyone tell me what's going on?"
Among the women in this room, Concubine Yun had the highest status, so she stood up from her seat and said, "Your Highness Prince Duan, let me speak for you. This..."
Ling Jingxuan, "Princess Yun, please take a rest. Shouldn't Concubine Yao herself be the one to tell what happened here?"
Lin Xiafeng and Ling Anli looked at Prince Duan at the same time. The former gritted his teeth, his face full of pain, anger, and disbelief, while the latter was completely confused.
Why does it feel like Prince Duan is helping Qin Qingyao?
Concubine Yao was trembling, as if someone had a knife at her neck. "Yes! Princess Wuling came to visit the child today. Later, I don't know who lied to the Crown Prince that the little prince was seriously ill. The Crown Prince came to visit in person out of desperation, so he met Princess Wuling here."
Dugu Yu, "And then?"
It was clearly a deep bass voice with a calm tone, but it frightened Lady Yao so much that she shuddered violently.
"But... then for some unknown reason, Princess Wu Ling and the Crown Prince had an argument."
Haha, this is such an artistic way of saying it, as if Qin Qingyao was deliberately looking for trouble to provoke Ling Jingyu!
Qin Qingyao's initial feeling of grievance passed, and she held back her tears. She didn't want these bad guys to laugh at her.
If she wants to cry, she should go home and cry. Outside, especially in front of those people who are waiting to laugh at her, she has to be as bright as possible!
She had just left Dugu Yu's arms and hadn't turned around when she was pulled back.
Dugu Yu had no time to care about the dispute between her and the prince. He lifted Qin Qingyao's chin with one hand and gently stroked her right cheek with the other hand.
If his calmness when he first came in was the eve of the storm, then now it was as if the storm was about to turn into a level 10 tsunami.
"Who hit you?"
Dugu Yu's words made Qin Qingyao feel warm in the heart, while everyone else felt cold in the heart, and instinctively wanted to say goodbye to save their lives.
I have to say, when no one feels sorry for you, you can get through anything, but as soon as someone asks you about it, you immediately become pretentious. This is a common human problem!
Especially with so many people around, only Dugu Yu noticed that she was hit in the face.
Qin Qingyao pointed at Concubine Yao, who didn't dare look at Dugu Yu, and said, "She hit me!"
Qin Qingyao just wanted Lady Yao to experience for herself what it felt like to be wronged and unable to defend herself!
Dugu Yu looked in the direction Qin Qingyao's finger was pointing, and a single look frightened Lady Yao so much that she felt a chill on her neck, and subconsciously hugged the baby in her arms tightly.
"It's not me, I didn't do it, Princess Wu Ling, you are slandering me, you are wrongly accusing me!"
Qin Qingyao said nothing and didn't respond. Anyway, she didn't want to do anything to Lady Yao. She just wanted to use her husband's domineering aura to scare her!
It would be best to create a psychological trauma for Lady Yao so that she won’t dare to mess with her again!
As a result, Ling Anli did not give her this opportunity.
She really jumped out of the crowd!
Pointing at the person in Dugu Yu's arms, she screamed, "Qin Qingyao, do you have any shame? You dare to say such nonsense in front of this princess? You are truly the most shameless and shameless woman I have ever seen in this world!"
Qin Qingyao wanted to get out of Dugu Yu's arms and practice her talking skills with the lunatic Ling Anli, but was suppressed by Dugu Yu.
He forcefully pressed Qin Qingyao's head back to his chest, not even letting her look at Ling Anli.
Ling Anli continued to reveal the truth to everyone, "Before dark, you were wandering around the garden and encountered His Royal Highness Prince Duan passing by. You shamelessly stuck to him. In broad daylight, you were so eager to get close to him!"
"This princess couldn't stand your disgusting face, so I slapped you to teach you a lesson! Now you dare to wrongly accuse Lady Yao, I think you don't want to live anymore!"
Qin Qingyao leaned on Dugu Yu's chest and curled her lips. "Who the hell is going to stick with Ling Jingxuan? You're blind at such a young age? Pathetic."
Dugu Yu, "What did the princess say?"
"I said she was in the garden..."
Dugu Yu, "You said you were the one who gave the princess the slap mark on her face?"
Ling Anli said proudly, "Yes, it was me who beat him!"
'Pah'
Qin Qingyao had her back to Ling Anli and did not see the scene, but she clearly heard a loud slap, followed by everyone's gasps and exclamations.
Dugu Yu slapped Ling Anli.
