It turned out that it was because he stole Jing Yuchen's woman! He favored other women, and the queen was angry! She was jealous!
"How dare she try every possible means to stop the woman I'm attracted to!"
The emperor stood up, obviously annoyed.
Concubine Wan and Mei'e knelt on the ground, looking terrified and saying, "Your Majesty, please calm down!"
But the emperor snorted coldly and said angrily, "Eunuch, pass on my decree. The Empress is extremely jealous. I want to punish her by confining her to copy the "Female Rules and Virtues" a hundred times. She is not allowed to leave Kunning Palace until she has finished copying them!"
Then his eyes fell on Concubine Wan: "How dare you lie to me! Very good! In your eyes, is the Queen's prestige greater than mine?"
"I dare not!"
"Hmph, I punish you to kneel outside. If you don't reflect on your mistakes, you are not allowed to get up!"
After he finished speaking, the emperor stood up and looked at Mei'e with a distressed look in his eyes: "Get up, the ground is cold!"
Concubine Wan knelt beside him. Although she felt wronged, she still insisted on persuading him: "Your Majesty, this woman is the one that the Queen prepared for Prince Chen. If the Queen knew that you insisted on having this Mei'e, she would definitely..."
"How dare you! The woman I like! How can I control her as the queen?"
The roar frightened Concubine Wan so much that she immediately lowered her head and dared not say anything more.
Mei'e also huddled on the ground, not daring to get up. "Your Majesty, I'm afraid of the Queen. She worked so hard to have Nanny Bai teach me the rules. If she knew what you did, she would definitely punish me after she finished copying the book! I have no one to rely on, and I'm afraid!"
As she spoke, she lowered her body, not daring to allow the emperor to favor her!
The emperor's good mood was completely ruined. He took a deep breath in anger and shouted, "How dare she! I will make you one of the Four Consorts right now! Let's see how she can touch you again!"
"Your Majesty... I, your humble servant, thank you so much!" Mei'e seemed very moved, tears streaming down her face. The emperor lovingly pulled her into his arms and said, "Alright, follow me to dinner. From now on, I will protect you in the palace!"
When Mei'e was pulled away by the emperor, she turned around and looked at Concubine Wan. The two looked at each other and smiled knowingly.
The Queen was still waiting for the Emperor to get angry with Mei'e and punish her, but instead, a eunuch arrived and announced her punishment...
The Queen was dumbfounded on the spot. The eunuch said helplessly, "Empress Wan wanted to take all the responsibility and testify in front of the Emperor that Miss Mei'e was already married. It's a pity that this woman was found to have the palace guard blood. Empress, please don't get angry. Copy it slowly. It can be considered as self-cultivation. But this Princess Chen who was sent here..."
"Queen, you have to be careful!" After the eunuch warned the queen, he turned and left.
The Queen's face was gloomy, and she gritted her teeth and called Ni Yueshan's name: "Ni Yueshan...just wait for me!"
Concubine Wan had already sent someone outside the palace to deliver a message to Ni Yueshan. Ni Yueshan was very satisfied when she learned the result. Although the Queen would hold a grudge against her for this, the two of them had already been at odds with each other for a long time, but they just had not made it clear.
Now that it was made clear, it didn't have any impact. Ni Yueshan chuckled, not caring much, and continued to paint the portrait in his hand.
Only after the portrait was completed did Ni Yueshan stop and look at Qingdie standing beside him: "Come and see, have my painting skills improved again?"
Qingdie was just confused: "Princess Chen, why have you been painting Yu Fei's portrait all this time?"
Ni Yueshan raised the corner of her mouth slightly. "Take this portrait and find someone who looks like her! The more similar, the better. Don't worry about the commission. As long as she agrees to cooperate, I'll give her any amount!"
Qingdie thought Ni Yueshan was up to something and took the portrait back: "I understand!"
After receiving the portrait, Qingdie turned around to do her work. Ni Yueshan tapped her fingers on the table, her thoughts wandering. Then she regained her focus and began to write a letter. Now, she basically receives two letters from Jing Yuchen every day, and Ni Yueshan insists on replying to one letter every day.
With this response, there was no sense of distance between the two people, as if they were both by each other's side.
In the capital, at a jewelry store, Yu Fei, who had disappeared for a long time, returned. Upon seeing her, the shop assistant immediately came forward and said, "Boss, you've been gone for so long, and I missed you so much!"
Yu Fei glanced at the man who was talking, then chuckled, "Then bring the account book over quickly?"
