Everyone watched Zhong Ran sitting in the pavilion eating in silence. After a full quarter of an hour, she finally put down her chopsticks contentedly.

"Let's go. I'm full. It's a good time to go to the palace to digest the food."

Eunuch Gui bowed and gestured to her to invite him in. Zhong Ran looked at him twice, said nothing, and walked out.

It was not until her figure disappeared that everyone felt weak all over and had to support each other to stand firm.

Going to the palace to help digestion?

In the entire Tianmu Kingdom, I'm afraid she is the only one who dares to say such words.

"Concubine Fang, I have something else to do, so I'll go back first."

"Concubine Fang, I have something to do at home. I will take my leave first."

The young ladies from each family quickly said goodbye and left with the help of their maids.

It can be said that today's Zhong Ran, with her unscrupulous and ruthless methods, shocked the entire capital and is well-known to everyone.

Although everyone knew her name and existence not long ago, it was far less shocking than it is today.

Zhong Daier stumbled back home, muttering, "It's over, it's all over."

Chen thought that since they were attending the flower viewing banquet, they would not be back until the afternoon.

But how long had it been? The servants actually came to say that Dai'er was back?

Could it be that that bitch caused trouble and caused her Dai'er to be implicated?

She asked someone to push her out, and when she saw Zhong Dai'er walking back in a daze, her face changed slightly.

"Dell, what happened?"

Zhong Daier looked at her with a dull look in her eyes: "Mom, it's over, it's all over."

Chen's heart was pounding: "What happened?"

……

Zhong Ran followed Eunuch Gui all the way to the Emperor's Qinzheng Hall, where many people were waiting.

The emperor sat in the middle, the empress sat in the first seat on the left, and Concubine Xiao and Concubine Yi sat down according to their ranks.

On the right sat Prince Ning, and two others who should also be princes.

Behind the prince sat three old men, two middle-aged men, and she even saw Zhong Qingshan.

However, everyone was sitting, only he was kneeling.

Seeing her come in, he shouted: "Stinky girl, why don't you kneel down quickly?"

He was really going to be killed by this little girl. She actually dared to cause such a big trouble for him.

Zhong Ran stood there without even looking at him. He glanced at Prince Ning and then looked up at the emperor.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you." Her attitude was as perfunctory as it could be, making people want to bite her and drag her out and behead her immediately.

The queen should actually leave the palace to visit Prince Yan at this time, but she wanted to see what happened to Zhong Ran more.

Concubine Xiao came here because of the marriage between Zhong Ran and Prince Ning.

She didn't like Zhong Ran in the first place, and now that Zhong Ran had caused such a big incident, she wanted to take the opportunity to cancel the engagement.

Otherwise, with this bitch's fearless character, if she were to marry into Prince Ning's Mansion, wouldn't she cause trouble for her son all day long?

Of course, this wild girl from the country is very skilled in martial arts. If she could fight wholeheartedly for her son, she would be a great help.

When Zhong Ran walked in, everyone's eyes fell on her.

"How dare you not kneel before the Emperor, the Empress, and all the masters?"

The nanny beside the queen shouted loudly, her voice majestic and cold.

If she were an ordinary lady, she would probably be frightened to the point of losing her legs after hearing her roar.

But Zhong Ran just looked at her calmly: "Are you the emperor or the queen?"

The nanny shuddered all over and felt everyone's eyes on her. She was so scared that her knees went weak and she knelt down.

"Your Majesty, spare your life!"

An old man next to him was furious: "What a sharp-tongued girl! The emperor is sitting at the top, why don't you kneel?"

Zhong Ran glanced at him and said calmly, "My knees are only for heaven, earth, and my parents. The rest of the people are not worthy of my kneeling."

"presumptuous!"

"Be bold!"

Several people shouted loudly, wishing they could rush over and force her to her knees.

But this moment was enough for them to understand what had happened in Prince Cheng's Mansion before. They just shouted a few times, but no one dared to rush forward.

They were all civil officials, and veteran officials at that. If they just rushed forward like that, how could they be her match?

Would she be afraid to take action because of their status? If they dared to cut off the arm of the King of Yan, what were they?

But everyone looked up at the emperor. How could he convince the people if he did not punish a girl raised in the countryside who had provoked him like this?

Only Mu Jinning kept his eyes on her. However, after not seeing her for two days, why did he feel that the aura of this girl was a little different?

The emperor said in a deep voice: "Zhong Ran, do you admit your guilt?"

Zhong Ran straightened his back and looked at him calmly: "What crime have I committed?"

Zhong Qingshan wanted to die, and reached out to pull her: "Kneel down."

Zhong Ran looked at him coldly: "You don't want your hand anymore?"

Zhong Qingshan's hand was halfway extended and froze there. He didn't know whether to continue pulling her or let her go. He felt extremely embarrassed.

This rebellious girl really didn't give him any face at all.

He wouldn't doubt what she meant. She had broken his hand before, but it was only a dislocation that an ordinary doctor could fix.

This rebellious girl had just cut off the arm of King Yan not long ago.

She even dared to cut off the arm of Prince Yan, let alone her father who had no feelings for her.

"You are indeed a wild girl who grew up in the countryside. You have no manners at all. Are you going to cut off an arm of your own father too?"

"Your Majesty, this woman is too cruel and lawless. If she is not punished, won't the capital be in chaos in the future?"

"Must be severely punished!"

"We must not encourage her arrogance."

"She even dared to cut off the arm of His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan. She has no regard for the royal family at all. This is contempt for the royal family and a capital crime."

A group of people shouted at Zhong Ran in a harsh tone. If they had the strength, they would have pounced on her and killed her by now.

Concubine Xiao also said at this time: "Your Majesty, this woman has a violent temper and is not suitable to marry into the royal family. I beg Your Majesty to cancel this marriage."

As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly felt a sharp gaze falling on her, which made her spine chill.

She subconsciously looked up and saw her son, Prince Ning.

She secretly made a gesture to her son. She knew that her son also disliked Zhong Ran.

To be honest, no man could like Zhong Ran with this awful look on her face.

Mu Jinning said calmly, "Father, Mother, I will not cancel the engagement."

He had finally found his junior sister, and the marriage was arranged a long time ago, so how could he be willing to back out?

He felt that if he canceled this marriage, he didn't know when he would be able to marry his junior sister again.

Concubine Xiao was originally thinking that her son would be happy if she canceled the engagement.

She was even thinking about which noble lady to choose as her son's principal wife.

But I didn't expect to hear my son say that he didn't want to cancel the engagement?

Her eyes widened, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and crystal light gradually condensed in her beautiful big eyes.
