Because of the war on the border between Daxia and Nanjiang, the entire Daxia Kingdom did not celebrate a good New Year.

This is Gu Lingshuang's first New Year since coming to the ancient times.

On New Year's Eve, Xiao Ziming was unable to be with her.

Because the palace has not been peaceful, he has been staying in the palace for the past few days and has not even returned home.

Gu Lingshuang got up early on the first day of the Lunar New Year. She cooked some delicious side dishes herself and then took Xia He into the palace.

The carriage stopped steadily in front of the palace gate, and Gu Lingshuang got off the carriage with the help of Xia He.

She was about to go in, but was stopped by a woman.

"stop!"

The woman looked very proud.

Gu Lingshuang stopped and turned around to see the granddaughter of the Taifu standing in front of her with a proud look on her face.

She raised her chin and looked at Gu Lingshuang through her nose: "The palace is not a place for you to come, go back."

Gu Lingshuang almost laughed at her bossy attitude: "I shouldn't have come, but you should have come?"

The woman snorted coldly: "Who am I, who are you?"

Gu Lingshuang's face suddenly turned cold: "I am the princess of King Xiaoyao, the most noble woman in the Great Xia Kingdom. You dared to speak ill of me when you saw me, even though I didn't kneel down. It seems that your family didn't teach you well. Then this princess will help Ni's family teach you a lesson."

"Xia He, slap your face!"

Xia He had long disliked this woman.

Why don't you take a look at yourself and see who you are? Do you think it's great to have a grandfather who is a tutor?

She didn't even ask about the power of their princess.

How could such a brainless woman be worthy of entering Xiaoyao Palace and becoming the prince's concubine?

Xia He walked over and raised her hand to slap the woman.

The woman's eyes were wide open with anger. Before Xia He could make a move, she raised her hand and slapped Xia He twice. Then she said arrogantly to the maidservants behind her, "This bitch dared to lay hands on me. Catch her and take her away to be beaten with fifty lashes."

At a command, the maids and servants behind her rushed forward and were about to capture Xia He.

Gu Lingshuang has always had a hot temper. The reason why she has been patient today is entirely because the situation is turbulent and she doesn't want to cause trouble for Xiao Ziming.

But that doesn't mean she will just sit there like a turtle and do nothing.

The granddaughter of the Grand Tutor must not want to live if she dares to attack her personal maid.

Gu Lingshuang strode forward, kicked all the maids and old women away, then raised her hand and slapped the woman hard in the face.

The granddaughter of the Grand Tutor was slapped so hard that she spun around three times before she stopped.

She was stunned by the slap. She had been brought up in a pampered manner since she was a child, and no one had ever dared to be rough with her. Gu Lingshuang was the first.

Her eyes were red with anger: "Bitch, I'm going to kill you."

Gu Lingshuang sneered: "Then we'll see if you have the ability."

She stood firmly in her place and hooked her finger at the woman: "Aren't you going to kill me? Come on, I want to see how you kill me."

She was bored these days, so she took advantage of this short-sighted woman.

The granddaughter of the Grand Tutor looked at Gu Lingshuang as if she was an idiot.

She had never seen a woman dumber than Gu Lingshuang. Now that the imperial court was in turmoil, the Fourth Prince, who was less than one year old, and Xiao Ziming were the most likely to sit on the throne.

She believed that Xiao Ziming was not a fool and would definitely agree to her grandfather's proposal.

Once she marries Prince Xiaoyao as a concubine, won't it be easy for her to kill Gu Lingshuang?

Unexpectedly, this woman would take the initiative to provoke her, so she killed her at the palace gate.

Anyway, her grandfather is the Grand Tutor, so no one would do anything to her if she killed someone.

Thinking of this, the woman ordered the maidservants: "Catch her, I will peel off a layer of her skin today."

After being beaten, the maidservant endured the pain all over her body and moved towards Gu Lingshuang.

The woman said to the guard at the palace gate: "Brother guard, please come and help us. You can't just sit there and wait for death. That crazy woman wants to kill us, master and servant."

The guards looked at each other, each with a speechless expression in their eyes.''

That woman was Princess Xiaoyao. Everyone knew that King Xiaoyao was deeply in love with his princess. Even if they had ten times the courage, they would not dare to offend her easily.

Seeing that the guards were not working hard for her, the granddaughter of the Grand Tutor was so angry that she jumped up to Gu Lingshuang and raised her hand to slap him.

There was already murderous intent in Gu Lingshuang's eyes.

This woman must be sick. She has to find trouble for no reason.

She was not a kind person. When she was offended by others, she would usually endure it. But when someone was as excessive as this woman, she could not tolerate it at all.

Before the other person's hand could hit his face, Gu Lingshuang grabbed it.

The woman pulled hard but it just wouldn't come out.

Gu Lingshuang increased the strength in his hands, and the woman screamed like a pig being slaughtered.

"Ah - let me go, bitch, or I'll make you pay for it. My grandfather won't let you go, and neither will the Li family."

Gu Lingshuang's lips curled up into a mocking smile.

Not letting her go? She was just a small tutor, a civil servant, what could he do to her?

Gu Lingshuang twisted it hard, and the young lady surnamed Li started to howl like a ghost, with snot and tears running down her face. She looked extremely ugly when she cried, and even barked like a dog.

Gu Lingshuang kicked her in the stomach and sent her flying.

Miss Li fell heavily to the ground, holding her stomach and crying.

"Ah - my stomach hurts so much, help me, someone come and save me."

Soon, everyone saw that Miss Li's skirt was stained with blood.

The surroundings were in chaos. The maids and servants glared at Gu Lingshuang and said, "If anything happens to my young lady, you will pay with your life."

When Xia He saw that the other person was bleeding profusely, a look of worry flashed across her face.

"Princess, what should we do?"

Not only was Gu Lingshuang not afraid, on the contrary, she looked very clear about it.

"Don't be afraid, it's okay."

Xia He was still a little worried. After all, she was the granddaughter of the Grand Tutor. Now was the critical moment for her prince to fight for the throne. If he lost the help of the Grand Tutor because of offending the granddaughter of the Grand Tutor, it would be a loss.

"Princess, is this really okay?"

"of course."

Seeing that she was so confident, Xia He was no longer worried.

Soon, Miss Li was carried into the palace and treated by the imperial physician.

However, before the imperial physician could put his hand on her wrist, Miss Li started screaming.

"I want to go home, I want to go home, don't come near me."

She refused to cooperate and everyone around her was helpless.

Gu Lingshuang gave Xia He a wink, and Xia He understood and hurried away.

About a cup of tea had passed, and Miss Li was still struggling desperately, refusing to let the imperial physician take her pulse.

Gu Lingshuang walked over and pinched her tendons. Miss Li was like a deflated ball, no longer having the strength to struggle.

Gu Lingshuang said to the imperial physician, "Take my pulse."

The imperial physician gave her a grateful look and then placed his hand on Miss Li's pulse.

There was a look of fear in Miss Li's eyes. She wanted to struggle but she had no strength at all.

Soon, a look of surprise appeared on the imperial physician's face.

"you are pregnant?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Xia He walked in with Xiao Ziming, Taifu and others.
