She must have felt that her jade pendant was worthless and couldn't delay it any longer.
"This jade pendant is extremely valuable. I've worn it since I was very young. My mother said she put a lot of effort into acquiring it."
Xiao Xiaocheng was anxious to get away, so he mentioned again what he knew about the value of the jade pendant, hoping that Tao Yuwei would accept it.
After listening to Xiao Xiaocheng's words, Tao Yuwei became interested.
The jade pendant that Concubine Huo specially found?
That must be a good thing, don’t miss it.
She snatched the jade pendant from his hand, took it in her hand and looked at it carefully. It was a piece of pure white jade that was transparent throughout. Holding it in her hand, she felt warm like spring. She didn't know much about jade and couldn't see anything.
If an ordinary young woman were to be offered a jade pendant by a very unpleasant man, she would definitely not accept it.
Tao Yuwei is different. Her favorite things are gold and silver.
Her own small treasury was already empty, and after leaving the palace, she would pawn this jade pendant and exchange it for silver.
Tao Yuwei accepted the jade pendant without hesitation.
He was very happy and felt that the conflict between him and Tao Yuwei would be reconciled soon.
Xiao Xiaocheng said happily, "Anle, shouldn't you move your feet?"
After putting the jade pendant away, Tao Yuwei glanced at him and snorted coldly, "You ignored the emperor's decree that allowed me to not kneel before anyone. You deliberately made trouble first. I can let you go, but you must kowtow to the dragon-patterned jade pendant that the emperor gave you as an apology!"
He pretended to be stupid and took the initiative to cause trouble for her, refusing to acknowledge the decree of Emperor Jianchang allowing her to meet people without kneeling. She took this opportunity to correct him and let him know that she, Anle, was not someone to be messed with.
Tao Yuwei took out the dragon-patterned jade pendant awarded by Emperor Jianchang, held it in her hand, removed her foot from his belly, and reminded him, "Don't hesitate, kneel down and salute."
After hearing her request, Xiao Xiaocheng was so angry that his head was dizzy.
He took the initiative to show goodwill and offered good things to apologize, and that’s still not enough?
Anle, this bitch, is too much. She just keeps finding his mistakes and won't let go, right?
Seeing his reluctance, Tao Yuwei put down her hand nonchalantly and said with a smile, "Well, if you don't want to salute, forget it. When we meet the emperor later, I will tell him that His Royal Highness the Prince of Yue is so filial. After seeing Concubine Yun in the harem, hehe..."
Faced with her increasingly aggressive bullying, Xiao Xiaocheng originally planned to give in and do whatever Tao Yuwei said.
After hearing her threatening words, he felt sick all over, especially her last two meaningful chuckles, which scared him so much that he sat up in shock.
Don't let your father know that he has provoked Concubine Yun. Concubine Yun is young and beautiful, and your father took her into the harem not long ago. I heard that your father has been visiting Concubine Yun's palace frequently recently, and his enthusiasm for her has not yet faded.
Today, he was confused and shouldn't have touched Concubine Yun. Fortunately, before leaving, he threatened her not to say anything. She was a smart person, and if the incident was exposed, it would not be good for her reputation.
Anle was different. She knew about this, but she didn't care, and she provoked her in a way that would have put her in danger.
Once the emperor finds out what he has done, he will punish him without mercy.
"I'm kneeling, so please don't say bad things about me in front of the emperor."
Xiao Xiaocheng was already confused. He knelt down in front of her and said seriously, "Anle, please be magnanimous and let me go. If you encounter trouble in the future, I will help you."
After hearing this, Tao Yuwei nodded seriously and said, "Alright, let's just call it quits this time. Don't let it fall into my hands again next time."
Don't push people too hard. There's a mysterious person behind Concubine Huo and her son.
Just in case the dog gets desperate, let’s just forget about it.
Seeing that she had finally stopped bothering him, Xiao Xiaocheng happily stood up from the ground and called out to the several palace maids and eunuchs lying on the ground, "Get up quickly, and send me back to the palace to recuperate."
Several palace maids endured the pain in their bodies, climbed up tremblingly, and followed Xiao Xiaocheng out of the palace.
"Remember, your injury has nothing to do with me. If any unfavorable rumors about me spread, you won't be able to imagine the consequences."
Tao Yuwei stood there, giving final instructions to Xiao Xiaocheng as he left.
