The harem is full of gossip, Your Majesty, you are cheating

None of the things I did outside the palace could be acknowledged.

Yue Xi shook her head and said, "My brother and sister-in-law just took me out to relax, but they didn't do anything."

"You didn't do anything?" The Queen Mother sneered, "Then why do you suddenly not want to get married? Did you hear some rumors that you shouldn't have heard?"

"Ai'er." Concubine You immediately advised, "Men are often a little frivolous when they are young. Zhang Ziping is not that ridiculous. I have checked. He has only had one mistress in all these years. Don't worry. Before you marry, the Zhang family will get rid of this woman and her unborn child. You will never be wronged."

Yue Xi was unusually calm at this moment.

She looked at Concubine You calmly: "I left the palace today and indeed heard someone tell me an interesting story. Originally, I wanted to share it with you. Actually, you already know it, right?"

Tiffany You's expression stiffened for a moment.

Yue Xi showed an ambiguous smile at the corner of her lips: "It is rumored that Zhang Ziping fabricated rumors in public and wanted to slander the reputation of the daughter of the Xie family. He was beaten by Xie Guogong one punch after another until his face was unrecognizable. Afterwards, a woman with a bulging belly came hurriedly and protected Zhang Ziping without hesitation. Zhang Ziping was very moved and even said that although this woman was a brothel girl, if he really had to choose, between me, a princess and the brothel girl, he would rather choose the brothel girl."

Yue Xi finished speaking in one breath, and then looked at the two people calmly: "Empress Dowager, Concubine Dowager, have you heard about all this?"

The Queen Mother and Concubine You looked even uglier.

Concubine You narrowed her eyes and said slowly, "It's just a rumor in the market."

"Really? If it's just a rumor, then the person who spread the rumor is despicable. We should help Zhang Ziping clarify it as soon as possible." Yue Xi looked worried.

Toffee You looked a little embarrassed.

This Zhang Ziping was so stupid that he said such a thing in public.

How can I help him clarify this?

It can't be clarified at all!

The Queen Mother said coldly: "Even if it is true, so what? You know, she is just a prostitute. Can she threaten your position?"

Yue Xi smiled bitterly, "Yes, she is just a brothel girl. But Queen Mother, have you ever thought about it? She is a brothel girl, but she can make Zhang Ziping do so many things for her. If the matter had not been exposed, he would even want me to raise the child! Don't you understand his feelings for this woman?"

"If I don't kill that woman, will I still be bullied by her when I marry her?"

"If I kill that woman, Zhang Ziping will definitely hate me to the core. If I marry into the family, I won't have a good life either."

Yue Xi knelt down with red eyes.

"Queen Mother, Concubine Dowager, please, give me a way to live."

She kowtowed heavily.

Tiffany You's expression moved slightly, and a trace of struggle flashed in her eyes.

Yue Xi is her biological daughter, and she cannot say that she has no love for her at all.

but……

Concubine You was frightened when she thought of what she had done in her early years.

She had run out of choices many years ago.

"Ai'er." Concubine You said slowly, "You are a princess. How dare they disrespect you?"

Yue Xi originally still had a little expectation for her biological mother.

just now.

This last bit of hope also disappeared.

The Queen Mother was so angry that she felt pain all over her body: "Such a good marriage, and you dare to say you don't want to marry! If it were any other woman, I don't know how satisfied she would be!"

Yue Xi's mind suddenly recalled Jiang Zhimiao's words, and she subconsciously said, "If the Queen Mother is so satisfied, why doesn't she get married herself?"

The whole place fell silent.

Yue Xi was startled.

Terrible!

How come she actually said it out loud?

but.

She looked up at the empress dowager's shocked expression and inexplicably felt a sense of pleasure.

"Crazy, your daughter is crazy." The Queen Mother's hands were shaking.

"Empress Dowager." Concubine You said hurriedly, "She must have been bewitched by the Emperor and the Empress. This could not possibly be what Xi'er meant!"

The Queen Mother was trembling all over. "Yue Xi! I don't know what the Emperor and the Queen said to you, but you have to think about it. Why didn't anyone tell anyone about Zhang Ziping before? Why did it just happen to be exposed when you were out of the palace?"

"Your brother and sister-in-law are so worried that you will not get a good marriage! The matter with Zhang Ziping was clearly arranged by them for you to see. But you were so stupid that you fell for it!"

Yue Xi was very calm: "Then what the Queen Mother meant was that the concubine was fake? Those words were not said by Zhang Ziping?"

The Queen Mother was stunned for a moment: "Yes, but..."

"If this was really arranged by my brother and his wife, then I have to thank them very much." Yue Wei said softly, "They didn't have to worry about such trivial matters, but they made painstaking arrangements for me. I will remember this kindness."

The Queen Mother's lips could not help but tremble.

She and Yue Xi, that doesn't make any sense at all.

Concubine You looked at Yue Xi who had a stubborn face and didn't know what to say for a moment!

"I get a headache just by looking at her. Take her away." The Queen Mother gritted her teeth and said, "If you can't figure it out, don't bring her to me."

Concubine You was startled and quickly agreed.

She glanced at Yue Xi coldly and said, "Get up!"

Yue Xi struggled to stand up.

Concubine You, along with several palace maids, brought Yue Wei directly back to Chaofang Palace.

As soon as she entered Chaofang Palace, she asked someone to close the door and then looked at Yue Xi coldly.

"I really didn't know you were so stupid." Concubine You said coldly, "I won't waste my time talking nonsense with you. You have to marry the Zhang family whether you want to or not!"

Yue Xi's expression was miserable: "Then I will just crash into a wall and die here, so that I won't have to live a life worse than death in the future."

Tiffany You's expression changed further!

Her daughter had been obedient all her life, but at the most critical moment, she suddenly became rebellious!

Concubine You was already used to controlling Yue Xi. She said expressionlessly, "Don't worry, I have plenty of ways to keep you alive! I want to see how long you can be stubborn."

Concubine You called a maid and ordered sternly: "Until the princess has figured it out, she is not allowed to leave the room. Also..."

She didn't finish her sentence.

Sudden.

A young eunuch ran in hurriedly: "Concubine Dowager, Princess, the Emperor and the Queen are coming this way!"

The emperor’s brother and his wife are here!

Yue Xi immediately revealed a genuine smile.

Toffee You glared at her and asked, "Why are they here suddenly?"

The young eunuch said nervously, "I don't know yet, but it looks like the ceremonial guards are complete, and the entourage is much larger than usual. They are coming here with great fanfare."

Is it a full ceremonial procession, or is it a grand one?

What's the idea?

Concubine You didn't figure out what was going on, but she still looked at Yue Xi coldly and said, "Don't talk nonsense later!"
