The virtuous concubine covered her mouth and laughed.

"Okay, okay, let's eat first."

"I heard that you have mastered the skill of knowing what you have drawn without looking at the cards. Show it to me later."

"Okay, but my luck and card skills are pretty good, so Concubine Xian should also be prepared. If you lose everything, you will have to walk out of Qingning Palace naked. Don't blame me for not reminding you."

"Don't worry, I'm here to fight you to the end today, so I've prepared a lot of gold, silver and jewelry. If you can win them all, then you're really capable."

Yun Zhining can't stand being provoked by others, and she always succeeds.

"Okay, since the virtuous concubine is so generous, I won't be polite."

"The New Year is coming soon, and I don't know what gift to give. If I can win all the clothes of the Concubine Xian, I will definitely have a prosperous New Year."

"Stop talking nonsense and have lunch quickly. After lunch, I will fight you for 300 rounds and make sure you kneel down and cry and call me daddy."

The corners of Yun Zhining's mouth twitched slightly.

"My Lady Concubine Xian, do you still remember that you are a woman? Even if I really lose, I will kneel down and cry and call you mother. How can I call you father?"

"No matter whether it's father or mother, you are bound to lose this time."

"Okay, then we'll just wait and see. It's still unknown who will win."

In the past, there were only Zhou Baozhu and her when they had meals together, so there were not many dishes. But today, three high-ranking concubines and two princes came.

Although Ying Fangyi was not very favored, she gave birth to the fifth prince after all, and is now with Concubine Xian. The people in the imperial kitchen certainly dared not neglect her, so at lunch today, there were many dishes on the table that Yun Zhining had never tasted or even seen before.

Qingzhu fed her everything one by one, and when she saw something delicious, she would pick some more for her. Concubine Zhou and others also took good care of her, and they had a very pleasant meal together.

After lunch, everyone rinsed their mouths and wiped their faces. Just as they were about to start playing mahjong, they saw Aunt Qi come in.

"Your Majesty, Princess Lin'an is here with the young prince and the young princess to see you."

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly turned cold.

Everyone stared at Yun Zhining, waiting for her to speak.

Yun Zhining's reaction was not as big as theirs.

"Since they are here, let them in."

"What about us?"

"Empress Xianfei, haven't you four people in the team played mahjong for the whole morning? Then continue playing. I will come to play with you after I finish talking to Princess Lin'an."

"also."

The virtuous concubine nodded.

"Come on, Concubine Zhou, let's continue. If I don't win all the jewelry on you today, I won't go back."

"Come on, it's only noon, I don't believe I can lose the whole day."

The four-member team started playing mahjong again. Qingzhu helped Yun Zhining sit on the couch, waiting for the arrival of Princess Lin'an.

After a while, the three of them came in.

As soon as I came in, I saw four people sitting together playing mahjong. One or two of them had red eyes and were staring at each other viciously, as if they wanted to strangle the person opposite to death. Princess Lin'an was really scared.

However, she did not forget the rules and obediently brought her two children to pay their respects to them. Concubine Zhou and others also returned the greetings and then sat down to continue playing mahjong.

Princess Lin'an glanced at the four of them, then set her eyes on Yun Zhining, and for a moment she didn't know how to start.

It was Yun Zhining who stepped forward to help.

"Please take a seat, Princess."

"I am blind, so please forgive me for my poor hospitality."

"Empress Yi, please call me Lin'an. It's more intimate this way."

"Okay, then I'm welcome."

"Lin'an, you came to me because you encountered some difficulties. Tell me boldly. As long as I can help you, I will definitely not stand idly by."

"You are too kind, Concubine Yi. My mother is my biological mother, and my brother is my biological brother. They will certainly not treat me unfairly."

"I came here today, first, to congratulate you on your promotion to consort, and second, to apologize to you for what happened that day."

"Wei Peng, come quickly and apologize to Concubine Yi."

"I don't. Her eyes were blinded by Concubine Shu, not by me. Why do you want me to apologize?"

"Although you didn't blind Concubine Yi, she wouldn't have gone blind so quickly if you hadn't thrown the cake she made with such good intentions at her along with the plate."

"Hurry up and apologize to him. Otherwise, as soon as I leave Qingning Palace, I will go to the Imperial Study and ask your uncle to cancel your title as the Crown Prince."

"do not want!"

When Wei Peng heard Princess Lin'an say that she wanted to cancel his title as Crown Prince, he instantly panicked.

He was not good-looking and had a bad personality. He relied on his reputation as the emperor's nephew, the eldest princess's son, and the young master of the general's mansion to attract a group of people to follow him. He also used this identity to bully children from the border areas.

If he lost his status as the crown prince, he would suffer backlash, and then he would be dead.

What's more, his mother has been arguing with his father recently about taking a concubine, and has even thought about divorcing him. If after the divorce, she marries someone else and gives birth to another son, then his position as the crown prince will fall to that son.

He absolutely couldn't watch this happen.

Absolutely not.

Thinking of this, he took a deep breath and suppressed all his anger and resentment in his heart, waiting for the right opportunity to vent his anger.

Seeing that her son's emotions had calmed down, Princess Lin'an finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Have you thought it through? Are you willing to apologize to Concubine Yi?"

"I am willing."

"Since you are willing, then kneel down and kowtow three times to Concubine Yi, then say loudly, Concubine Yi, I was wrong. I will definitely abide by the rules in the future and will never offend you again. I hope you will be magnanimous and forgive me this time."

Okay, I tolerate it!

Wei Peng pinched his palm hard until it bled, then he glared at Yun Zhining viciously.

"Empress Yi, I was wrong. I shouldn't have disrespected you, taken my anger out on you, hit you, and caused you to go blind. I apologize to you. From now on, I will respect you and will never make a similar mistake again."

Yun Zhining raised her eyebrows and smiled.

"Your Highness, that's very nice of you to say, but your attitude in apologizing is not okay!"

"Not only did you not kneel down and kowtow to show your sincerity, you even stared at me viciously, as if you wanted to bite me to death."

"I don't accept that."

"Wei Peng, kneel down and apologize!"

"Mother,……"

"Why, you don't even listen to me now?"
