Qi Zhen was not frightened by her.
He had become accustomed to Concubine De's occasional tantrums.
What's more, he just came from the Empress Dowager's place.
Since his mothers and concubines didn't like him, he didn't need to like them either.
He is loved by the Empress Dowager and will have a wife of her dreams in the future.
He won't be hurt by them again.
"If Madam De has nothing to do, I will take my leave. I have not yet completed the homework assigned by Mr. Dai."
He is very polite and considerate, which is quite good.
But Concubine De felt like she had punched cotton, and the more she thought about it, the angrier she became.
Seeing that Qi Zhen still had no expression on his face, she took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.
Then he said, "Go tell Concubine Wu that I will take care of your marriage. She is not in good health, so please don't make things more complicated."
Qi Zhen's eyes turned cold, he sneered in his heart, and his voice became even colder:
"This is the will of the Empress Dowager. I am incompetent."
"Then why don't you go find that old... find the Queen Mother and tell her that you want me to help you with this, right?!"
Defei changed her words halfway through her speech.
But Qi Zhen still realized what she had originally intended to say.
The old immortal...
The words he heard when he came to the Yanx Palace.
Qi Zhen raised his head abruptly, his eyes icy, "Forgive me for my incompetence. I can't do it!"
After saying that, he turned and left.
He will never come to this Yanxi Palace again.
"Stop right there!"
Defei shouted behind him.
But the man didn't stop even a step.
De Fei was so angry that she twisted the handkerchief in her hand several times, but she couldn't help but sweep the last set of teacups on the table to the ground:
"Every one of you is against me! Fine! Since you are so unkind, don't blame me for being unjust!"
Little Fourteen pouted and looked at his fourth brother's back as he left, tears streaming down his face, but he didn't dare to make a sound.
Woo woo woo!
Fourth brother, why don’t you look at Fourteen?
Fourteen is afraid.
The wet nurse felt very distressed when she saw the pitiful appearance of the little prince.
But she was just a servant, so how could she dare to offend Concubine De at this moment?
The atmosphere in the Yanxi Palace was extremely cold.
Everyone was silent, afraid that if they accidentally made a noise, they would be seen by Concubine De and their lives would be in danger.
But at this moment, Cuizhu rushed in with several guards: "Take him away."
She only said two words, and the guards behind her started moving.
Concubine De frowned: "Aunt Cuizhu, what are you doing? Why did you trespass into my Yanxi Palace?"
She was filled with rage and had no place to vent it.
But the other party was someone who was favored by the Queen Mother, so she didn't dare to vent her anger directly on him.
Seeing those guards rushing over, picking up Little Fourteen and leaving, Concubine De became anxious:
"What are you doing?! What are you doing?! Put my son down!"
She rushed over anxiously.
Cuizhu looked at her coldly: "My Lady Defei, I am here on the orders of the Empress Dowager.
"You insulted the Queen Mother behind her back, disrespected her, and indulged in extravagance. The Queen Mother has said that you should reflect on this in the Yanxi Palace.
"Oh, by the way, you are no longer the Virtuous Consort. The imperial edict will arrive soon. Your Majesty, please take care of yourself."
Do you really think everyone is deaf?
What's more, is there anything in this palace that the emperor doesn't know?
The only difference is whether the emperor wants to pursue the matter or not.
As soon as Concubine De scolded the Empress Dowager, the Emperor received the news.
After hearing what the Empress Dowager had told Concubine Rong, and knowing that Concubine De had disliked the Empress Dowager, the Emperor naturally wanted to avenge his mother.
Concubine De was stunned and stopped.
At this moment, she just felt cold all over.
Cuizhu sneered and carried Little Fourteen to her: "Fourteenth Prince, may I take you to see the Empress Dowager?"
Little Fourteen looked at his mother, then nodded his head obediently.
Cuizhu gently wiped the tears from the little guy's face, then turned and left:
"Don't be afraid, Fourteenth Prince. From now on, with the Imperial Grandmother loving you, no one will dare to scare you anymore."
"No! Fourteen! Give my son back to me! I was wrong! I won't do it again! Give my son back to me!"
When Concubine De saw that Little Fourteen was about to be taken away, she finally realized what was happening.
She hurriedly chased after the green bamboo.
But he was stopped by the guards.
She could only watch her son drift further and further away from her.
She gave birth to three sons.
Can't even one of them stay by my side?!
Why? !
Why do you treat her like this?!
"By the Will of Heaven, the Emperor decrees: Consort De of Yanxi Palace has bad conduct and insulted the Empress Dowager, making her unfit to be a concubine. She is hereby stripped of her title and demoted to the rank of concubine. She is confined to Yanxi Palace and is not allowed to leave without permission! This is my decree!"
*
Things developed so quickly that all the palaces were stunned.
Rong Fei sneered, "Serves her right! Day after day, she acts like a spoiled brat just because she gave birth to three sons! If it weren't for the Fourth and Fourteenth Princes, she would have been banished to the cold palace by now!"
*
Concubine Wu was coughing. When she heard this, she just sneered and said nothing.
*
The queen continued to recite scriptures and chant Buddhist scriptures without even opening her eyes.
*
When Qi Zhen returned to the prince's residence and heard the news, he was stunned for a moment, and then went back to his room as if nothing had happened.
Just as he opened the lunch box, there was a knock on the door: "Fourth brother, what are you eating? It smells so good! You can't eat alone!"
Qi Zhen: ...
As soon as I heard the voice, I knew who it was.
He felt helpless and could only walk over to open the door: "Fifth brother, I..."
