After listening to what Ye Youran said, Song Yunxi realized that Zhao Yunwei, a concubine's daughter, was able to bribe the prime minister's colleagues to take him to the building to drink and listen to music, and was even so bold as to drug the prime minister, undress and offer herself to him.

"Sister Yunxi, you don't know that Minister Zhao loves this concubine's daughter very much. He originally wanted to send her to the farm to avoid the limelight first, and then find a marriage for her far away after the storm subsided. But Zhao Yunwei was determined to become the prime minister's concubine, and even her aunt cried and begged Minister Zhao to fulfill her daughter's wish of becoming a concubine."

Ye Youran sneered disdainfully: "A lady from a proper Shangshu Mansion is actually eager to become a concubine and a slave. This is the first time in this capital city that she has set a precedent."

Sure enough, those rumors about respecting the Prime Minister and offering himself as his antidote were all embellished to cover up the scandal.

Although Prime Minister Zhou is forty years old and has maintained himself quite well, Zhao Yunwei is young and beautiful, and is the beloved daughter of the Minister of Revenue. She has both status and beauty. What did she see in Prime Minister Zhou that made her drugged and sacrifice herself just to be his concubine?

Is it because he is older than your biological father or because he smells like an old man?

As the saying goes, there must be a monster when something goes wrong.

This Zhao Yunwei is not simple.

Song Yunxi pulled Ye Youran and said, "Let's go and see this concubine who is famous in the capital."

"As a woman, she cannot give birth to children for her husband's family. She is so useless that she still occupies the position of the principal wife and does not allow her husband to take a concubine. I heard that she does not allow Master Zhu to inherit the children. She is determined to make the Taifu family extinct. How can there be such a vicious woman in this world?"

When Song Yunxi approached, she heard Zhao Yunwei arrogantly humiliating Madam Zhu, and her attitude was like that of the principal wife.

Song Yunxi was certain that this Zhao Yunwei was the culprit who humiliated Madam Zhu and caused her death in the previous life.

If it had been in the past, Madam Zhu's body would have been hollowed out by the poison of the cold marrow grass. Add to that her sensitivity and fragility from not getting pregnant for more than ten years. Being humiliated in public like this and enduring the strange looks and discussions from those around her would surely have exacerbated the spread of the cold marrow grass, and it would have been difficult for her to save her life.

But in this life, the poison in Madam Zhu's body has been cured, and she is now pregnant. Her state of mind has changed a lot, and she doesn't take the clamor of a lowly concubine to heart at all.

But Song Yunxi couldn't help but take it to heart. The Taifu Mansion immediately blocked the news of the Zhu family members coming to cause trouble that day. Even the Emperor only knew about this after the old Taifu went to the palace to report it in person. How did a concubine like Zhao Yunwei in the inner palace know about it?

There was a dangerous aura in Song Yunxi's slightly narrowed eyes.

"this……"

Song Yunxi's sudden clear and pleasant voice attracted the attention of all the noble ladies around.

Her identity has long been known to everyone in the capital, but no one is sure who she is coming for at this moment. So before finding out her purpose, no one dares to take sides, for fear of accidentally offending the eldest lady of the Imperial Master's Mansion.

Seeing that she had successfully attracted everyone, Song Yunxi looked at Ye Youran and asked, "Does Princess Nine recognize this singing girl or dancer?"

Although she was asking Ye Youran, her eyes were directed at Zhao Yunwei.

Geisha and dancer?

Everyone turned their eyes to Zhao Yunwei again. Wasn't she dressed like a prostitute? She didn't look dignified or elegant at all.

It is indeed not presentable.

Zhao Yunwei realized that she was humiliated by Song Yunxi and her face turned red with shame and anger.

Especially at this moment, she realized that she was indeed out of tune with the noble ladies around her. Her original pride disappeared completely, and she wished she could take off all this gorgeous and flashy makeup.

After spending some time with Song Yunxi, Ye Youran had come to understand her evil nature to some extent, so she deliberately raised her voice: "Sister Yunxi, you are wrong. This is Prime Minister Zhou's concubine, not a singing girl or dancer."

"My concubine!"

Song Yunxi's eyes were filled with undisguised disdain and contempt: "Has the imperial palace banquet fallen to such a low point? They are forcing the ladies to live with a concubine. Are they belittling us or slapping us in the face?"

After her reminder, everyone felt that living with a concubine like Zhao Yunwei was simply a lowering of their status, and subconsciously kept their distance from her.

Although Zhao Yunwei knew that Song Yunxi was not someone she could offend, how could she control her emotions when she had never been humiliated like this before?

He immediately fought back angrily: "Miss Song is bullying others by taking advantage of her power. Aren't you afraid of humiliating the reputation of the Imperial Master?"

Snapped!

Following Song Yunxi's suggestion, Qinghe slapped Zhao Yunwei in the face.

Qing He had been practicing martial arts since she was young, and even the secret guards of Shengyun Mountain were few if any of her rivals. She used all her strength in this slap, causing Zhao Yunwei's face to tilt to the side, with blood flowing out from the corner of her mouth.

"What kind of person is worthy of mentioning my master?"

She didn't really look down on illegitimate children, she just simply looked down on Zhao Yunwei.

If she could be as honest and straightforward as Ye Youran, then it wouldn't matter if she was born out of wedlock. No one would look down on her.

Zhao Yunwei had long heard that Song Yunxi had a flamboyant and arrogant personality, but she never thought that she was so unrestrained.

He glared at Song Yunxi angrily, with murderous intent in his eyes.

But Song Yunxi didn't care at all, and sat down comfortably and freely: "How dare a mere concubine humiliate and embarrass the wife of a court official in public, who gave you the courage?"

Seeing Song Yunxi venting her anger in this way, Madam Zhu was deeply moved. Of course, there was no reason to let her charge into battle alone.

So he asked coldly: "This Aunt Zhao knows everything about the inner house of my Taifu Mansion. I want to ask Prime Minister Zhou what he wants to do by doing this!"

Mrs. Zhu's words immediately made everyone realize that something was wrong.

Indeed, they had never heard of the Taifu Mansion intending to adopt an heir, but Prime Minister Zhou's concubine knew it clearly. There was only one reason for that, and that was that Prime Minister Zhou had spies in the Taifu Mansion.

The prime minister of the current dynasty actually extended his hand to the residence of the Grand Tutor, who was highly valued by the emperor. The purpose behind this is really thought-provoking.

Zhao Yunwei never thought that she was just following that man's orders to humiliate Madam Zhu, but how did it rise to the level of the court?

Zhao Yunwei's heart tightened, and she explained in a panic: "I...I heard it!"

Madam Zhu: "Oh? Who told you that? I'd like to ask him why he is so familiar with the affairs of our Taifu Mansion."

"me……"

Zhao Yunwei didn't know what to say.

He caught a glimpse of Zhou Churou watching the fun and pointed at her: "I heard it from my eldest daughter!"

Zhou Churou was stunned. She didn't expect Zhao Yunwei to put the blame on her.

The sudden change made her at a loss for words, so she just listened to Song Yunxi's joking ridicule: "This Prime Minister's Mansion is really unique. Not only can a concubine be accepted into the elegant hall, but she can also let the legitimate young lady speak to her freely and unreservedly!"
