"What the hell is going on..." Ji Anni wanted to yell this at Concubine An, but she found that she didn't have the strength at all. After seeing Die'er's tears, Ji Anni was so angry that her legs began to weaken. Not only did she not have the strength to stand up and face Concubine An, she didn't even have the strength to yell.

Concubine Baogui seemed to be unaware of Ji Anni's anger, and even said in a voice that was almost boastful and trying to win credit: "This girl has a big mouth but she doesn't speak. She didn't say a word when she did something wrong, which caused you to miss the time to submit your name tag. I just had someone boil a pot of hot oil and poured it into this girl. Since she doesn't speak, I will punish her by making her speechless for the rest of her life."

I boiled a pot of oil and poured it in...

Ji Anni couldn't imagine how Concubine An could say such cruel words in such a calm voice. A pot of hot oil poured down her mouth, not to mention being unable to speak, she might not even be able to eat. Ji Anni couldn't imagine how vicious a woman's heart had to be to come up with such a way to torture a little palace maid.

"Die'er..." Ji Anni hugged Die'er's shoulders distressedly and slowly lifted Die'er's chin. Only then did she realize that Die'er's mouth was full of blood blisters, and her chin and cheeks were all burned. The blood that had mixed into the flesh and could not be washed off was mottled on her face. The mixed red and black scars made Die'er's originally beautiful face look a little scary.

Dier seemed to be afraid that her face would scare Ji Anni. She whimpered softly and covered the lower half of her face with her hands.

"Die'er." Ji Anni's heart was broken and she hugged Die'er tightly in her arms.

She thought she would cry, but strangely her eyes were dry and no tears came out. There was only an inexplicable resentment flowing through her body, making her so angry that even her lips were trembling and she couldn't utter a word.

The sound of Dier crying in her arms almost destroyed all her sanity.

"Sister?" Seeing that Ji Anni didn't speak for a long time, Concubine An took half a step forward in confusion.

"Don't call me..." Ji Anni took a deep breath and tried to make herself sound calm. She slowly turned her head and her sharp eyes swept towards Concubine An like a knife.

Concubine An was so frightened that she took a half step back and cried out in shock and fear: "Sister..."

"I told you not to call me!" Ji Anni stood up and it took a lot of determination to restrain her impulse to rush forward and slap Concubine An. She clenched her fists tightly and yelled at Concubine An with all her strength: "I told you not to call me with your mouth - it's so dirty!"

To Ji Anni, the repeated call of "sister" sounded like an insult.

She couldn't stand Concubine An's hypocritical smile, and she couldn't tolerate her poisonous heart.

If the other person was not a royal concubine, if this was not a harem, if there was no strict hierarchy here, if there was someone who could stand up and uphold justice... Die'er would not have to suffer this way.

Ji Anni felt deeply indignant and helpless.

This is not her original world, and the world she recognizes should never be like this. She has not yet had the power to change anything, but now, she really wants to scold Concubine An for Die'er. If possible, she also wants to let Concubine An taste the feeling of having hot oil poured into her mouth. But - this is exactly what Ji Anni is most unwilling to do - she knows she can't do it.

Concubine An was shocked by Ji Anni's "dirty" just now. It took her a long time to react from the shock. She was so angry that her whole body was shaking. "You are so good, Zhao Ji! I gave you a little good face, do you really think you are the queen?"

"I'm not the queen, and I don't want to be one. But Concubine An, I don't want to see you in charge of the harem!" Ji Anni pointed at Concubine An's nose and scolded, "You were afraid that Die'er would tell the truth, so you even poured hot oil into her to make her speechless! I can't imagine a woman could be so cruel, Concubine An, I really want to see what kind of heart you have."

At this point, Ji Anni took out the nameplate that Concubine An had just returned to her.

She waved the nameplate in front of Concubine An and said, "Everything you did was just to delay my handing in the nameplate, right? Concubine An, I tell you, you don't have to resort to those crooked ways, and you don't have to sacrifice an innocent maid. You don't want me to hand over this nameplate, right? I won't hand it over!"

After she finished speaking, there was a crisp "snap" sound, and Ji Anni broke the brand name in her hand.

Throwing the broken pieces of the brand name on the ground, Ji Anni took a deep breath again, thankful that she still had her sanity, thankful that she could still speak: "Noble Concubine An, I remember I warned you once... If your target is me, if it's me you want to deal with, just come straight at me, don't involve innocent people again and again! Don't make me warn you a third time!"

"Well..." Concubine An was scolded by Ji Anni so much that her nose was crooked, "Zhao Ji, you are really brave!"

"Get out..." Ji Anni was too lazy to say more to her. She raised her right hand and pointed at the door. "Get out right now. I don't want to see you!"

"You are such a jerk, Zhao Ji, are you trying to rebel?" This was the first time that Concubine An was treated like this. She didn't know whether to walk or stand. She stamped her feet in anger and shouted, "You are just a concubine. Is this the tone you use to talk to a concubine?"

"Noble Concubine?" Ji Anni couldn't help but sneer, "You are not a noble concubine at all now, and you are not worthy of being a noble concubine. You are just a vicious villain, just a sinister and despicable woman, just a shameless sinner who should have been skinned and thrown into the oil pan and fried over and over again a hundred times! I don't want to see you, this is my yard, of course I have the right to drive you out!"

After Ji Anni's roar, the maids who were cleaning all turned their attention to Concubine An. This was probably the first time they saw someone dare to confront Concubine An. They were so surprised that they forgot their work and stared at the white-hot battlefield in amazement. Even Die'er behind Ji Anni opened her eyes wide in fear, looking at Ji Anni as if she were a monster.

"How dare you tell me to get out?" Concubine An had already been angered by Ji Anni's attitude. She threw away all her ladylike demeanor and pounced on Ji Anni with her teeth and claws bared.

She raised her right hand high and was about to slap Ji Anni.

But Ji Anni was quick to grab Concubine An's hand and dragged her out the door. Although Concubine An was several years older than Ji Anni, she was no match for Ji Anni in terms of strength. She was like a chicken, without even the chance to struggle, and was dragged to the door by Ji Anni.

"Let me go! Let me go!" Concubine An struggled endlessly.

Ji Anni pushed her hard on the shoulder and pushed her out the door.

Concubine An was thrown out as if she was kicked out.

Before she could turn around and glare, Ji Annie slammed the door shut.
