Mo Shu stood in front of the two of them and clenched his fists.

Before the guards could get close to the three men, they were hit by something and fell to the ground with their limbs spread out.

Ye Qingyu knew that it was Lin Feng who took action.

The palace maid was also frightened. When she came to her senses, she looked at Ye Qingyu and the others with even greater anger, "You, you still dare to resist! Hurry up and arrest them!"

The guards, holding their legs and grimacing in pain, hurriedly climbed up while enduring the pain.

"What's going on? It's so noisy." The cold and arrogant voice was filled with obvious irritation.

As the voice fell, the person who came in was dressed in a bright red palace dress and had an extremely beautiful face. At this moment, she was frowning because of annoyance, and her eyes were filled with impatience at being disturbed.

When the maid saw the visitor, she knelt before him in a flash, crying with grievance, "Your Majesty, it is all my fault that I failed to take good care of your beloved peony flowers, and they were ruined. Please punish me."

Ye Qingyu was too lazy to look at the palace maid with two faces. She saluted and said, "Your servant greets the Imperial Concubine."

The moment Concubine Liu saw Ye Qingyu, her cold and beautiful face turned even colder. "Oh, it's Miss Ye."

Concubine Liu naturally had no good face for this woman who dared to refuse to marry her son.

After lunch, Concubine Liu came to the Imperial Garden to stroll around and digest her food. She originally wanted to quietly enjoy the scenery, but her good mood was disturbed by the noise here. Seeing the culprit made her mood even worse.

She glanced at the fallen Shaoyao and the peony in Wanqiu's hand, and said coldly, "Who taught you the rules? You're acting wildly in the palace! Come, chop off this slave's hand!"

Ever since the marriage was granted more than a month ago, Concubine Liu has been holding a grudge. Now Ye Qingyu happened to fall into her hands, and she couldn't do anything to her. She punished a servant to suppress Ye Qingyu's arrogance and vent her anger.

"Yes." The guard obeyed the order and stepped forward to capture Wanqiu.

Ye Qingyu stood in front of Wanqiu and said, "I asked Wanqiu to pick the flowers. If Concubine Liu has anything to say, just come to me."

Concubine Liu looked at Ye Qingyu coldly, "What a deep love between master and servant! Do you think I dare not touch you?"

"You, the daughter of a courtier, dare to act so unruly in the Imperial Garden. The Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion is so powerful! Every plant and tree in this Imperial Garden belongs to the royal family. If you pick and pluck flowers without any rules, I will punish you for disrespect. Come, arrest them all!"

"Your Highness is wrong. Your maid has said that every blade of grass and every tree in this imperial garden belongs to you."

Shen Yanli was pushed by Lin Feng and slowly came out from the side.

He deliberately didn't come out just now, just to see which palace's maid dared to be so arrogant. With him by the side, naturally no one could hurt Ye Qingyu and her servant.

Seeing that the person coming was Shen Yanli, Concubine Liu felt a chill in her heart, "It's the King of Chu! It turns out that the King of Chu brought Miss Ye to the Imperial Garden."

"Your Highness the Prince of Chu may have heard wrongly. Every blade of grass and every tree in this palace belongs to Your Majesty."

Shen Yanli came to Ye Qingyu's side, his voice as cold as ice, "Are you saying, Imperial Concubine, that I am deliberately framing you? I am not the only one here. I am afraid that the entire harem can hear the voice of this palace maid clearly."

Imperial Concubine Liu's face turned dark blue. The maid hadn't expected Shen Yanli to be there. She knew she had gotten into big trouble and kowtowed to admit her mistake. "Your Highness, it's this servant who was talking nonsense. It's all this servant's fault. It has nothing to do with Imperial Concubine Liu. It's all this servant's fault!"

Concubine Liu kicked the palace maid with anger on her face, "Why don't you apologize to Miss Ye!" You are not capable of doing anything good, but always cause trouble!

The maid kowtowed to Ye Qingyu and said, "Miss Ye, please be magnanimous. It is my fault for disturbing you. I will punish myself and beg for your forgiveness."

The palace maid slapped herself repeatedly, and after a few slaps, her face became swollen. It was obvious that she was really cruel to herself.

Concubine Liu suppressed her anger and said with a smile, "Prince Chu, Miss Ye, this is all nonsense from a servant. Please don't take it seriously. It's my fault that I didn't know better. The first time His Royal Highness Prince Chu brought Miss Ye to visit the Imperial Garden, she messed things up. It's my fault for not managing the servants in the harem well."

As she spoke, Concubine Liu took off a bracelet with excellent water content from her wrist and handed it to Ye Qingyu. "This bracelet is my apology. How do you think it is?"

Ye Qingyu looked at Concubine Liu, who had been cold and sarcastic just now, but smiled as soon as Shen Yanli appeared. As expected, she was a member of the harem; the speed at which she changed her expression was unmatched by ordinary people.

Ye Qingyu smiled faintly and said, "Your Highness, your words are too serious. These are just the nonsense of a palace maid. It is my fault that I have acted inappropriately. His Highness the Prince of Chu said that the flowers and plants in the Imperial Garden can be picked freely. This was my first time in the Imperial Garden and I was so excited that I forgot to ask for Your Highness's permission. It is my fault. How can I ask Your Highness to apologize?"

Concubine Liu gritted her teeth secretly. Ye Qingyu was setting her on fire. Why did she need her consent? Wasn't she still saying that she was the master of the harem?

What if this gets to your Majesty's ears?

Concubine Liu gritted her teeth, her face even gentler. "Your Highness the Prince of Chu is right. I remember when he was a child, he used to mess with the flowers and plants in the imperial garden, which gave the gardeners a headache. Haha, Miss Ye is the future Princess of Chu. It's just a few flowers, so of course I picked them."

The smile on Concubine Liu's gorgeous face became even wider. "Miss Ye, what other kinds of flowers do you like? I'll ask the gardener to cut them down. Please don't hurt your hands."

Ye Qingyu took the peony from Wanqiu's hand and said, "Of all the flowers, this is the only one I like. I don't want any more. Thank you, Your Majesty."

Concubine Liu squeezed the handkerchief tighter and said with a sweet smile, "Even so, I won't disturb you from strolling around the garden. Alas, the sun is getting hotter this afternoon, so I'll go back to the palace to rest."

Ye Qingyu bowed dignifiedly and said, "I respectfully bid farewell to the Imperial Concubine."

A group of palace maids and eunuchs followed Concubine Liu away, and the Imperial Garden immediately returned to peace.

Shen Yanli spoke, his deep voice filled with regret, "If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have listened to Changning and brought you here. You've been irritated for nothing."

Ye Qingyu shook her head, a smile wafting from her lips. "Of course not. This is quite interesting. Let's go too. It's really getting a bit sunny."

Shen Yanli took Ye Qingyu out of the palace and sent her back to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.

At this time, Concubine Liu, who had returned to Yaohua Palace, angrily threw the teacup in her hand.

"You little bitch! You dare to disrespect me just because you have that loser Shen Yanli to protect you!"

At a glance from Aunt Liu, a palace maid hurried over to clean up the place and leave.
