The three newcomers had just entered the Eastern Palace, and when the concubines and the Crown Princess were confronting each other, they could only watch from the sidelines. No one wanted to be the first to stand out at this time.
Hearing the Crown Princess' admonition, they hurriedly spoke in unison. "Yes."
Su Jingyao sneered disdainfully, full of contempt.
"It's up to fate to have an heir. I heard that the Crown Princess drank a lot of medicine in order to conceive a child for His Highness. It seems that all efforts are useless."
Upon hearing this, Ling Yue leaned forward suddenly, but her right hand tightly grasped the handle of the chair, and the expression on her face twisted for a moment.
Her inability to have children was a big worry for her, but Su Jingyao used this to mock her!
But Ling Yue still took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart.
Then he sat down calmly again, slowly turning the bracelet on his left hand that represented his status as his legal wife.
"What Concubine Su said makes sense, but I am the Crown Princess. No matter whose child you have, I will treat it as my own."
Su Jingyao watched her movements, then raised her left hand, and gently stroked the chain hanging from the left hair crown with her slender fingers.
The sleeves slowly slid down, revealing the gold and jade bracelets she was wearing.
The two bracelets collided lightly, making a slight sound.
The moment Ling Yue's eyes touched the bracelet, the calmness she had just pretended to have disappeared in an instant.
His eyes looked as if he wanted to eat someone, he stared fiercely at the gold bracelet on Su Jingyao's hand, even his breathing became rapid.
"Does the concubine know that casually making and wearing a gold bracelet that is worthy of being the wife of the royal family is disrespectful?"
Ling Yue's voice was shrill, almost squeezed out from between her teeth.
"Are you talking about the bracelet on my hand?"
Su Jingyao tilted her head slightly, looking innocent, but there was a hint of provocation in her eyes.
Then she casually said, "Crown Princess, I have never made a bracelet myself since I entered the East Palace. All my bracelets were given to me by Your Highness."
She gently turned her wrist to make the gold bracelet more dazzling.
The three newlyweds were stunned to see such a wonderful show so early in the morning.
I didn't expect that the Crown Princess and Concubine Su would be so incompatible, and Concubine Su was so bold.
She actually wore the bracelet that represented her status as the legal wife so blatantly in front of the Crown Princess to show off. She was so arrogant to the extreme.
The three of them looked at each other, showing no emotion.
Ling Yue's chest was heaving violently at this moment, like a bellows, and the anger in her heart almost burned her whole body.
Why did Jun Zechen treat her like this?
What on earth happened in this life?
Even if Jun Zechen doted on Su Jingyao in his previous life, he would not treat her like this without caring about their previous affection!
Is he not Jun Zechen at all?
Ling Yue's mind was in a mess, with many thoughts.
She pursed her lips, her face so gloomy that it seemed like water could drip out of it, and said in a deep voice: "I have a headache today, you all should leave."
After everyone left, Ling Yue took a deep breath, clenched his fists, and forced himself to calm down.
Since Jun Zechen slapped her in the face in public like this, she had to make good use of it.
There was a hint of ruthlessness in her eyes. "Meixiang, go to Yude Hall."
Yude Hall.
At this time, Jun Zechen was sitting at the desk in the study, handling government affairs.
As soon as Ling Yue stepped into the study, he knelt down in front of the desk without any hesitation.
Jun Zechen heard the noise and looked at her with a frown.
"What is the Crown Princess doing?"
"Your Highness, what did I do wrong? You want to let the concubine humiliate me like this, wuwu."
Ling Yue's tears burst out instantly, she cried like a pear blossom in the rain, her shoulders heaving, and tears rolling down her cheeks.
Jun Zechen's face hardened and his expression became somewhat solemn.
"What did the concubine do?"
Ling Yue raised her left hand, revealing a delicate bracelet on her slender wrist.
"This bracelet represents the status of your wife. Today, the newlyweds came to pay their respects to the Qiluan Palace, but the concubine openly wore the same bracelet to show off in front of me."
Her voice was filled with tears, making her sound even more miserable and pitiful.
"Your Highness, are you going to depose me?"
Ling Yue raised her head and looked at Jun Zechen with tearful eyes, her eyes full of grievance and fear.
Jun Zechen pursed his lips tightly, his expression straight.
She is becoming more and more outrageous!
Although Jun Zechen guessed that Su Jingyao would not behave herself when he gave the bracelet to her, he just thought that she would not go too far and would only show off in front of Ling Yue in private.
How could she actually insult the Crown Princess in public?
"The concubine is still young, it's just a bracelet, I'll let her wear it for fun, Crown Princess, don't think too much about it."
Jun Zechen's voice was cold, and his gaze did not linger on Ling Yue for long.
Ling Yue lowered her head, listening to Jun Zechen's words defending Su Jingyao, and couldn't help but sneer in her heart.
She had never expected Jun Zechen to punish Su Jingyao for this. Now he was probably very new to Su Jingyao and liked her very much, so how could he bear to punish her?
But Su Jingyao behaves insolently again and again, can Jun Zechen really tolerate and accept it forever?
"I know that Your Highness favors the concubine. Since Your Highness has no intention of abolishing me, I will not bother with the concubine."
Ling Yue suppressed the grief and anger in her heart and tried to keep her voice calm.
What she said fully demonstrated the Crown Princess's magnanimity and kindness.
"But the Queen Mother has worked very hard for Your Highness to select the best concubines. When the new bride entered the palace yesterday, Your Highness did not show favor to her. I'm afraid the sisters will be worried, and the Queen Mother may also have opinions about the concubines. Your Highness, do you want to go and see the new sisters today?"
