"Your Majesty! Please make the decision for me!"

Concubine Li, who was covering her face, came back to her senses from the shock of being beaten. When she saw the person approaching, she immediately threw herself into her arms, crying, looking so pitiful.

Zhao Chengyuan, who had just returned from the army and saw this scene, was furious on his handsome and heroic but stern face.

"Queen! You are so brave!"

He didn't expect that the seemingly obedient queen would dare to tie up the concubines in public.

Su Manman snorted in her heart when she saw that he blamed all the faults on her without asking the reasons.

She was not willing to be that now, the obedient queen who bowed to him regardless of whether it was her fault or not.

She shook her hands, which were numb from overexerting, and looked at him without any fear.

"I did."

As soon as she finished speaking, the air pressure around her dropped suddenly.

The queen, who always obeyed the emperor's words, actually talked back to him in public!

This shocked people who knew the two people well.

Even Zhao Chengyuan stared at her with eyes as sharp as a blade, as if he wanted to pierce through her body and see clearly what she was thinking.

But apart from Su Manman's face full of "I'm not wrong", nothing more can be seen.

At that moment, I felt that this rebellious queen was very strange.

"Why have you become so heartless and unreasonable?"

His tone was full of reproach.

"Yes, I have used up all my heart to hold the lake water, and now I have become petty and intolerant."

Su Manman still had that indifferent attitude.

Just as Li Yuwan was about to put the blame on her for falling into the flowers and deliberately called herself "your concubine", she knew something was wrong.

She always considered herself noble. Except when she had to maintain her image in front of Zhao Chengyuan and Queen Mother Su, she would never call herself that. In private, she would always call herself "this palace" when talking to the Queen.

With Su Manman's ability to spread rumors and exaggerate things about her in front of Zhao Chengyuan.

Even if she didn't slap him, she would still be in trouble.

In the past, she didn't want to affect her relationship with Zhao Chengyuan, so she always endured her difficulties.

As a result, this person thought she was easy to bully and became more and more aggressive.

Anyway, she has now seen through the man's ruthlessness, so there is no need to put herself in a difficult position.

"If you think I am not a good enough queen, why don't you find someone with a bigger heart?"

When she said this, people around her gasped.

This is not something you can say casually!

Zhao Chengyuan's face turned even gloomy, and there seemed to be a violent storm in his eyes as he stared at her.

Su Manman straightened her body stubbornly. Even though she was wearing a lot of clothes, her slender figure could not be concealed.

She was considered tall among the concubines in the harem, but when standing in front of Zhao Chengyuan, she was still more than a head shorter than him.

She had to look up to meet his gaze.

Even though the size difference put her at a disadvantage, her eyes did not flinch in the slightest.

"Queen, you've spoken out of turn."

In the end, the extremely angry Zhao Chengyuan did not yell at him, but spoke these words one by one in a terrifyingly calm voice.

That's it again!

Su Manman was angry.

He rarely had direct conflicts with her or said bad things to her. Whenever they encountered problems, he was used to dealing with them calmly.

In this way, no matter what happened, as long as the two of them had a conflict, outsiders would think that she was the one who was making trouble unreasonably.

Seeing him like this this time, and looking at Li Yujia crying beside him, he felt extremely annoyed.

"Ah, yes, yes, yes! Your imperial concubine is the most gentle, virtuous, reasonable, and generous. The scumbag emperor and the crazy concubine should be locked up!"

After saying this, he turned around and left angrily.

She was not a person with a bad temper, but because of her status and not wanting to disappoint others, she restrained herself a lot.

But as expected, people should express their emotions.

Normally, when I was wronged, I would have to digest it in private for a long time. But now that I’ve scolded him, I feel a lot better.

This was the first time that Zhao Chengyuan was scolded by his own queen. As he watched her walk away and blend into the spring-filled garden, the corners of his mouth twitched.

What nonsense has she learned from the storybook?

Then he asked the person beside him, "Am I a scumbag?"

The eunuch Pang Defu, who was following him, noticed that his inquiring eyes were fixed on him and broke into a sweat.

But I had no choice but to face it head on.

"The Queen only said this in anger. Your Majesty, please don't take it to heart."

Zhao Chengyuan looked at her expression just now and it was very serious.

Since it's not my problem, it must be the fault of the storybook.

He immediately asked Pang Defu to make arrangements and let her read fewer low-brow books, as they would corrupt her.

Pang Defu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and agreed.

"His Majesty……"

As a weak female voice sounded, Zhao Chengyuan remembered that there was someone beside him who couldn't get a word in.

He looked at Li Yuwan's face with a clear slap mark on it, frowned, and subconsciously pulled the person away from him.

"Crazy... Concubine Li, what on earth is going on?"

He almost called out "Crazy Concubine".

"Wow... I just happened to see the Queen admiring the flowers in the garden and went up to say hello, but I didn't expect to anger her. Not only did she push me into the flowers, but she also... also..."

As he spoke, he began to sob again, as if he had suffered a great injustice.

She didn't notice that Zhao Chengyuan looked at the peony bushes in front of him that were trampled into a mess, and a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes.

Everyone in the entire palace knows how much Su Manman treasures this patch of peonies.

If she wanted to push someone, she would never push him here.

But it is an indisputable fact that she beat people.

"The Queen has always been soft-tempered. This time, she was probably just ill and in a bad mood, so she acted impulsively."

Looking at the people around him who had caused him to be scolded, he felt unhappy but did not show it too much.

"Go back to Chaoren Palace and rest first. Ask the imperial physician to take a look. I will talk to the queen later."

This was obviously not the answer Li Yuwan wanted to hear.

She stopped sobbing and said pitifully, "Your Majesty has been away from the palace for many days, and I miss you very much. How about you..."

"I have something important to deal with, so I won't be there for now."

After saying that, he looked at the servant beside him.

"Why don't you send the Imperial Concubine back to get the imperial physician? If you want to leave a scar on the Imperial Concubine's face, I will hold you responsible!"

If you go a little slower, the wound will heal.

Li Wanyu only felt the burning pain on her face but could not see the wounds on her face.

Seeing how serious Zhao Chengyuan sounded, thinking that the cut was really that big, he panicked.

"Then... then I will take my leave first and will serve you again another day!"

He bowed and left in a hurry.

With the departure of Su Manman and Li Wanyu, the surroundings became quiet again.

At this moment, Pang Defu looked at Zhao Chengyuan who was taking a deep breath, and said hesitantly, "Then Your Majesty, we..."

Zhao Chengyuan was passing by here. He was originally going to Fengwu Palace to see Su Manman, but he didn't expect that they would bump into each other halfway and cause such a scene.

Pang Defu was not sure about his itinerary and could only ask.

Zhao Chengyuan thought about it. They had just had a quarrel, and he also told Li Yuwan that he had something to do. It would not be appropriate to go to her place at this time.

"Forget it, let's go to the Cining Palace."

The group agreed and headed in the direction of the Queen Mother.

Unfortunately, as soon as I entered the room, I found that the queen, who was supposed to go back to her own bedroom, was also there.
