Cold-faced Empress

A moment later, the Emperor's expression changed drastically after hearing what Consort De had said.

The Emperor's eyes blazed with fury, a mixture of surprise and suspicion. After a moment's thought, he said to Consort De, "Take men and investigate the situation. Do not make a sound! Whatever the result, return immediately and report to me."

Consort De lowered her head and raised an eyebrow: "Your Majesty, I obey."

He rose and led his palace servants away quickly.

The Empress Dowager glanced disapprovingly at Consort De, whose back view exuded arrogance, and asked the Emperor, "What's wrong?"

The Emperor frowned: "It's nothing, Mother, you don't need to worry."

The Emperor knew that Consort De had just had a conflict with Fu Siying, so he specifically instructed Consort De not to make a fuss. But would Consort De obediently listen to him?

In the past, she might have obeyed the imperial edict, but after Fu Siying provoked and belittled her and Hu Lingjing in the palace, Consort De decided to ruin Fu Siying's reputation!

"Go and tell Prince Mu that Miss Fu has been humiliated."

"Yes."

Not only did Consort De specifically inform Prince Mu, but she also walked with an extremely imposing aura, making it clear to everyone that something was amiss. Hu Lingjing couldn't sit still and immediately gathered her friends to follow Consort De.

The Fu family members outside the main hall, shrouded in gloom, instantly snapped back to reality. The second wife, holding Wei Lanling down, gritted her teeth and said, "She's finished!"

Watching Consort De's hurried departure, Wei Lanling nodded emphatically, a look of satisfaction on her face.

Yes, Fu Siying is finished. She'll taste the humiliation and pain she suffered a thousand times over! She'll make all of Fu Siying's pride and arrogance vanish into thin air!

Consort De led her entourage to the palace maids' quarters, where the waiting maids immediately stepped forward to report the situation.

"The door was bolted from the inside. The servants couldn't open it. We couldn't hear Miss Fu's voice from inside, only... the young master of the Marquis Wei's mansion groaning from time to time."

Upon hearing this, Consort De and Hu Lingjing could barely suppress their smiles.

Inside the room, Fu Siying coldly watched as Rong Chen would occasionally punch Ning Ruicheng in the stomach, causing Ning Ruicheng to groan in pain and vomit repeatedly.

There was a lot of noise outside. She heard Consort De's voice and Hu Lingjing's various slanderous and derogatory remarks. She smiled coldly and silently.

Heh, why aren't you coming in? What are you waiting for?

Consort De did not order the palace servants to break down the door immediately, but waited until Prince Mu arrived before discussing the matter with him.

"I wonder how Prince Mu intends to handle this matter?"

Upon discovering Mo Canglan's arrival, Fu Siying's eyes grew even colder, and she personally stepped forward and kicked Ning Ruicheng in the buttocks.

"Well!"

Ning Ruicheng, who was already in heat, let out a cry of pain that sounded both pleasurable and melodious, but it didn't hurt at all.

Mo Canglan stood outside the room where Fu Siying and Ning Ruicheng were, and could clearly hear Ning Ruicheng's groans inside. He was never one to be approachable, and now he was as cold as an ice blade, capable of cleaving even the wind that blew past.

Seeing that Mo Canglan did not speak, Consort De glanced at the palace servants beside her and said, "Tell Prince Mu about this again."

"The palace maid who led Miss Fu to the room suddenly needed to relieve herself, so she asked Miss Fu to wait inside for a moment. Who knew that the palace maid living in this room," the palace maid pointed to the palace maid who had been beaten until her face was swollen and she was spitting blood, "had ill intentions and wanted to curry favor with a nobleman, so she prepared drugged tea in her room!"

Mo Canglan held the hand warmer in his hands, staring indifferently at the door with a blank expression.

The palace maid said, "Young Master Wei heard from the palace maids that he saw Miss Fu enter the palace maid quarters, and he was worried, so he came to look for her. After that, I don't know what happened."

After saying that, he pressed the beaten palace maid for an answer: "Tell me, what kind of medicine did you use?"
