When Huan Yue woke up from his lunch break, he noticed that it was getting late.
Although the study was small, the palace maids served her swiftly.
Huan Yue said to the palace maid, "We've missed the spring."
The young servant girl was uncouth and dressed simply, but she exuded a charming naiveté and wasn't afraid of the Empress: "It's alright, there will be more tomorrow."
Huan Yue patted her head: "Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow, how many tomorrows there are! If I wait for tomorrow, all things will be wasted."
Upon hearing the first sentence, Cuizhu felt that Di Baose's days were utterly bleak.
Compared to that, Yuzhu is much better.
Cuizhu felt that although the Empress was not well in the Pei family, at least she was betrothed to the Crown Prince and was not the one of low rank.
Even Empress Dong dared to criticize him; there's truly nothing to fear in this world.
Besides, when she ordered the palace maids to kneel outside, Empress Dong didn't react. It's impossible that she came to the Eastern Palace on her own.
Consort Di's affairs ultimately concern the Crown Prince and the Di family.
Many people are now observing the Di family's reaction. If the Di family doesn't touch the Empress, then everything will be fine.
The Di family's influence is far greater than that of the Pei family.
What's even funnier is that the Empress can't touch the Pei family, but she can touch the only legitimate daughter of the Di family.
Are the Pei family more noble? Quite the opposite, they are lowly.
Therefore, the Di family remained secure, while the Pei family's Marquis of Jianchang became the Earl of Jianchang. The daughters of an Earl's family were definitely a grade lower than those of a Marquis's family, even if their reputations were already poor.
How many respectable men would marry a young lady from a declining noble family?
The Jianchang Earl's Mansion not only lacks official positions and money, but more importantly, it lacks common sense. Now they've offended the Crown Prince; what good will that do them when he ascends the throne?
Perhaps the Pei family, a bunch of brainless fools, are also waiting for Di Baose to come and fight against the Empress, so that the Empress will be left with no one to rely on but to seek help from the Pei family?
Would you like to invite the Pei family to come and eat elm seed rice?
The Pei family certainly wouldn't care.
Huan Yue finished getting ready and came out, the setting sun shining on him, making him feel very happy.
Huiqing watched as her bright eyes swept across the elm trees outside, and she had a feeling that something strange was about to happen.
Now, everyone watching the play is seeing Di Baose kneeling.
When Di Baose saw Huan Yue come out, she was furious!
Huan Yue understood perfectly. He walked up to Di Baose and sighed, with a languid air from having slept too much: "When you're sick, you sleep a lot."
Di Baose is sick!
Huan Yue was particularly kind: "His Highness made you kneel for a day. If you don't kneel enough, you may have to make up for it twice tomorrow."
Di Baose screamed hysterically, "Pei Huanyue!"
Huan Yue rubbed his head and said, "If you keep bothering me, I'll make you order four more servings."
Di Baose stared at her, who was holding her head, and cursed, "You slut!"
Di Baose was filled with grief and indignation! Why was no one paying attention to her? It had been a whole day, why was no one looking at her?
Huan Yue sneered: "Miss your mother? Or whoever pleases you? What is your heart worth? I'll dig it out and have it with my wine."
She poked with one finger.
Di Baose lay on the ground, her heart pounding with pain.
She's really scared! It was the ear-pulling incident before, and it happened yesterday too.
Di Baose lay on the ground, glancing sideways at the sunset, tears streaming down her face, when she caught sight of her cousin.
Under the setting sun, her cousin looked like a god in the sky. Di Baose hurriedly got up, and even if she couldn't stand up, she had to kneel properly to maintain her image in front of her beloved.
Di Baose cried with particular grievance: "Cousin, I know I was wrong."
Xie Zhou came over and asked Pei Shi, "Does your head hurt? Why is she here instead of kneeling in Chengxiang Palace?"
Di Shan followed behind, bowed to the Empress, and stayed to one side for the time being.
Di Baose couldn't see him, and Di Shan wasn't keen on looking at her either.
Huan Yue and Di Erlang returned the greeting in response to His Highness…
Di Baose rushed to complain: "Cousin, I'm sick, waah... Pei Huanyue, that bastard, dragged me here, waah."
Tears streaming down her face, she was originally a beauty, but now Di Baose's appearance is indescribable.
Xie Zhou coldly asked, "How come you're still alive?"
Di Baose looked pitiful: "Cousin, I really know I was wrong."
Xie Zhou laughed angrily: "Disrespecting Qing'e Palace, is this how you know you're wrong? Kneel until you die, while you're still alive! I don't expect you to understand your mistakes!"
Huan Yue interjected, "Your Highness, this palace maid seems to be seducing you."
Xie Zhou was angry: "Don't you have a headache? How come you can see so clearly?"
Huan Yue blinked: "I think she's quite pretty. If Your Highness doesn't mind..."
Xie Zhou was furious: "You don't mind?"
Dislike.
Di Baose belatedly realized that the palace maid was indeed beautiful, and even after kneeling for so long, she still looked quite charming.
But Di Baose didn't care and angrily shouted, "Cousin, what's wrong with her?"
Xie Zhou had lost his temper. What else could he expect from Di Baose?
That palace maid was quite bold, waiting for her fate.
Huan Yue laughed: "You can seduce His Highness instead of me, as long as I don't mind. So I'll give you a chance. You're so smart, come up with a good idea to kill the Empress, and I'll reward you with the title of Ninth Consort. Heaven above, I, Huan Yue, keep my word."
He swore an oath on the spot.
The palace maid's face turned ashen; she was finished.
The four palace maids sent by Empress Dong are all gone.
Regardless of whether they are tempted by the Crown Prince, they will be uncomfortable in the Empress's presence.
Di Shan wanted to burst out laughing!
No wonder people like Qing'e Palace these days, it's hilarious!
The cat cleverly replied, "The Empress is not as generous as Your Highness."
The little servant girl wasn't stupid either: "Your Majesty is the most virtuous; she supports the ladies-in-waiting in their vying for favor."
Xie Zhou's face darkened again.
With the Empress's backing, the young servant girl became bold: "Your Highness should thank the Empress; the Empress has had a difficult time."
Xie Zhou went over and took his wife's hand, holding it tightly and not wanting to let go, while restraining himself and saying coldly, "Of course Your Majesty is virtuous, Your Majesty has worked hard."
Huan Yue glanced at him. With that greasy look, wasn't he afraid she'd throw her hand away in public?
Xie Zhou gritted her teeth. The consequences of her shaking her head were hard to predict.
Huan Yue snorted.
Look how smug she is! Xie Zhou kissed her and left.
What a scoundrel. One day I'll make him a dog.
Di Baose was completely baffled by the legal proceedings, but she screamed, "Pei Huanyue, how dare you disrespect the Empress! Are you trying to kill His Highness? Cousin, sob sob..."
She's the most loyal, look at her, look at her!
Huan Yue was almost driven to tears by Di Baose's stupidity: "Kneeling here and still not using your brain? Did you only realize this after you were in your coffin? You don't want to go to the underworld and wait there, do you? Don't be silly if you don't get there. Besides, it's not even certain if you have a coffin. If you mess with me, I'll throw you into a mass grave to feed the dogs."
Di Baose glared at her.
Huan Yue sneered: "Is the Di family indispensable to you?"
Di Shan said, "Grandma is taking care of her great-granddaughter now."
Di Baose glared at him.
Huan Yue suddenly had a wild thought: "Could it be that the Zheng mother and daughter are planning to kill their little niece?"
Di Shan was even angrier: "They've already done it."
Huan Yue was truly enraged, glaring at Di Baose: "You utterly depraved wretch, I'll skin you alive!"
Di Baose screamed in terror, as if facing a demon: "It wasn't me, it was Song Ziying! She's the one who killed me!"
Huan Yue's face wasn't contorted, but his aura was terrifying: "Since your eldest cousin's wife didn't kill you, you can go kneel and die in Chengxiang Palace. Don't think I'm joking."
Xie Zhou wasn't interested: "Drag it to Chengxiang Hall, and if it collapses, just splash it with water to wake it up."
He doesn't need to teach you the rest.
