"Did you and the Lord... know each other before?"
“In the past?” Mi Shan shook her head. “I have no recollection of him. If I had met someone like him, I would never forget him.”
"So, you've heard of..."
The name Xie Ling was about to be uttered.
Then a voice announced something from outside the door.
"His Majesty has arrived!"
"His Majesty."
Mi Shan and Bai Lingyu quickly stood up and bowed to him.
"My two beloved consorts, there's no need for such formalities. I originally came to visit Consort Mi Hui, but I didn't expect to find you here, Yu Yu."
“I was scared, so I came to talk to Mi Huifei to vent my frustrations,” Bai Lingyu said.
"I pity you both. This time, Prince Pingxi went too far. But rest assured, my two beloved consorts, I will definitely seek justice for you! Tomorrow, that fame-seeking monk will be beheaded and his head displayed to the public!"
"Hang his head on the city wall, and see who dares to disobey me!"
"They dare to harm my beloved concubine today. Tomorrow they'll dare to plot against me! I absolutely cannot allow such a thing to happen!"
"As for the Prince of Pingxi, I have already sent the Crown Prince, who is also the Assistant Minister of Justice, to interrogate him."
Bai Lingyu was startled and exchanged a glance with Mi Shan.

Mi Shan knew that Li Shengyuan's actions were also intended to establish his authority.
But the Empress Dowager will definitely do everything in her power to protect Prince Pingxi.
"It's a pity that Che'er is in trouble again, and there's no one in the palace who can lead troops. Otherwise, I would definitely strip the Prince of Pingxi of his military power."
After Li Shengyuan finished speaking in a deep voice, a chilling glint flashed in his eyes.
Seemingly realizing that he shouldn't say such things in front of the two concubines, he paused slightly, then returned to his usual relaxed demeanor.
"Did my appearance just now frighten my two beloved consorts?"
Mi Shan and Bai Lingyu exchanged a glance, pretending not to understand, and went up to support the emperor's arms on either side.
"Your Majesty, I don't care what you say, I just want you to teach that stinking monk a lesson and avenge Yu Yu."
"Yes, we must never let this happen again, we must never let it break our hearts again."
"Hahaha, my two beloved consorts, rest assured. After I have suppressed Prince Pingxi this time, he will not cause any more trouble. As long as I am here, no one in this harem can harm you!"
After Li Shengyuan finished speaking, he pulled them into his arms.
Unexpectedly, Xu Ninghai rushed in.
"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager summoned you earlier, but you have not come after waiting for a long time. Now, she seems to be angry and has personally made her way to the Jade Lotus Palace!"
