Female special forces soldiers in ancient times
Chapter 45 Court Conflicts
The Fifth Prince and his entourage angrily chased after them to Yonghua Palace.
He flew into a rage as soon as he dismounted, yelling loudly at the guards.
The guards all looked terrified, their eyes filled with fear and unease.
"You, go now, tell that Li Tingting to come out and see me!"
The Fifth Prince's eyes were wide with rage, and veins bulged on his forehead, as if he were about to tear the person in front of him to pieces at any moment.
The guards at the gate, seeing the fierce and menacing expressions of the Fifth Prince and his entourage,
Not daring to add fuel to the fire, they hurriedly ran inside.
A short while later, Li Tingting slowly walked out from inside.
She looked up and saw the Fifth Prince's handsome face, which was filled with extreme anger.
Her heart skipped a beat, but she quickly composed herself and gave a slightly guilty and embarrassed smile.
"Oh dear, why is His Highness the Fifth Prince so angry? What should we do? Haha."
Li Tingting teased him playfully.
The fifth prince stared at her intently, as if he wanted to tear her to pieces with his gaze.
"Li Tingting, I went to check on your carriage out of kindness, and you dared to kick me off my horse."
Upon hearing this, Li Tingting burst into laughter, "Oh dear! You're a prince, you're not in a hurry to be on duty."
"I'm different from other girls. If I hadn't arrived in time and missed my shift, my superior would have punished me."
"Hmph, I'll teach you a lesson today, or you'll turn the world upside down."
"Aren't you a master of martial arts? I'll come and challenge you again today."
As he spoke, the Fifth Prince used his palm as a knife and quickly moved towards Li Tingting.
Seeing the Fifth Prince attack, Li Tingting's smile remained unchanged. She dodged the fierce blow with a swift movement.
"Your Highness, how dare you bully a weak woman like me? Doesn't your conscience hurt?"
She spoke, but her steps remained perfectly steady.
The Fifth Prince was even more enraged when his attack missed, and his moves became even more ferocious, with his palms whistling through the air.
Li Tingting, however, moved with the grace of a butterfly, weaving through his attacks with ease.
"Your Highness, please don't get angry, or you'll harm your health," Li Tingting teased as she dodged.
The Fifth Prince wouldn't listen to any of it. He leaped forward and charged straight at Li Tingting's face.
Li Tingting's eyes narrowed, she stopped dodging, crossed her arms, and forcefully took the blow.
The two men's arms crossed, and they exerted their strength, resulting in a stalemate for a moment.
The surrounding guards were stunned and dared not utter a sound.
Li Tingting suddenly let out a delicate shout and exerted her strength, causing the Fifth Prince to stagger back several steps.
The fifth prince stumbled and almost fell.
But the Fifth Prince quickly regained his composure and charged at Li Tingting again.
Seeing that the Fifth Prince was so angry, and also feeling somewhat guilty, Li Tingting was reluctant to hurt him.
Suddenly she saw the small fishpond across the way, which was quite deep, and an idea immediately came to her.
When the Fifth Prince kicked her hard, she countered with a move that didn't retreat but instead advanced.
Suddenly, he used a Tai Chi move on him, using minimal force to deflect a great weight, and borrowing the opponent's strength to strike back.
Grabbing the Fifth Prince's foot, she forcefully flung him into the small fishpond.
With a "thud," the Fifth Prince was instantly soaked to the bone.
"Your Highness, Fifth Prince, you flatter me!" Li Tingting said with a smile.
The fifth prince climbed out of the fishpond, his face ashen.
"You wicked Li Tingting, I'll spare you for now."
"I'll come back another day to have a contest with you." With that, he turned and left.
Li Tingting watched the Fifth Prince's departing figure, a slight smile playing on her lips, her mind seemingly preoccupied with something.
After the Fifth Prince stormed off, the guards present exchanged glances, their apprehension towards Li Tingting growing even stronger.
"This Li Tingting is simply a little witch; she even dares to tease the Fifth Prince like this."
"We'd better stay away from her from now on," a guard muttered.
"You're right, look at her skills, we can't afford to mess with her."
Another guard echoed, his eyes filled with awe.
The palace maids were also whispering and gossiping among themselves.
"This Li Tingting is too audacious; she's probably going to cause a huge disaster."
"That's right. If she offends the Fifth Prince, do you think she'll get away with it?"
Of course, these discussions soon reached Consort Zhen's ears.
"Hmph, Li Tingting has only been in the palace for a few days, yet she dares to be so arrogant."
"Your Majesty, if we don't teach her a lesson this time, I'm afraid Li Tingting will become even more unscrupulous."
The father-in-law, who had just been beaten by Li Tingting yesterday, told Consort Zhen everything.
"Your Majesty, why don't we bring up this matter along with all her previous disrespectful behavior?"
"Let's also complain to the Emperor and have him punish her," suggested another of Consort Zhen's confidants.
Consort Zhen nodded. "Hmph, I have my own plans. I will make sure Li Tingting doesn't get away with this."
Therefore, Consort Zhen carefully crafted a speech and wrote it into a letter.
Then they sent someone to deliver it out of the palace at top speed.
Soon, the letter was delivered to Consort Zhen's cousin.
After receiving the letter, he made some plans in his mind.
The next morning at court, he passionately submitted a memorial to the emperor, accusing Li Tingting in front of all the officials.
"Your Majesty, I, Wu Xiong'an, have important matters to report. Recently, Li Tingting, a newly appointed guard at Yonghua Palace..."
His behavior was eccentric and reckless. Not only did he disregard the court's regulations regarding wearing armor daily,
He is also late every day and does not show up on time. Since entering the palace, he first beat his superior and then beat up Your Majesty's secret guard.
Even worse, she dared to disrespect the Fifth Prince yesterday and kick him off his horse.
He then got into a fight with the Fifth Prince at Yonghua Palace and threw the Fifth Prince into a fishpond.
Such behavior is a grave offense of disrespect; Li Tingting is so arrogant and rude.
To disregard palace rules is a disgrace to the imperial dignity; Your Majesty, I beseech you to punish such a person severely!
The emperor sat on the dragon throne, his brows furrowed slightly, his expression displeased. "Is this really true?"
Upon hearing this, the court officials immediately began to whisper among themselves.
The news was so explosive, the scene so shocking, they couldn't believe that anyone would dare to be so bold.
They wouldn't even dare to think about doing something like that, let alone do it.
Therefore, some people believe that there must be another hidden story behind this matter, and that someone may be spreading rumors.
But Li Xiang and Li Zhong, the two brothers, couldn't sit still any longer.
This guy actually dared to complain about his own niece in front of the two brothers.
Isn't this a slap in the face? Isn't this trying to put his family to death?
Li Xiang immediately lost his temper, "Your Majesty, this is pure fabrication!"
Wu Xiong'an! Don't spout nonsense and slander my niece, Li Tingting.
My niece, Li Tingting, has always been well-mannered, reasonable, and dutiful; she would never do such a heinous thing.
Wu Xiong'an, however, did not back down. "Hmph, Lord Li, your protection of your niece is quite something..."
"Is there some hidden secret? I have solid evidence; this is not a false accusation."
Li Xiang was so angry that his face turned red. "Where did you get your so-called solid evidence?"
"It is clearly you who have gathered rumors from the palace to deliberately frame me."
Seeing this, the emperor quickly and gently comforted Li Xiang, saying, "Minister Li, please calm down."
"I will investigate this matter thoroughly, and anyone who dares to frame me will not be spared."
Li Zhong, standing nearby, said indignantly, "Your Majesty is wise; I hope you can clear my daughter's name."
Wu Xiong'an replied in a sinister tone, "Both Lord Lis..."
Let's see how this matter is investigated. There's a lot of discussion about it in the palace right now.
It's true that your Li family is powerful, but you must also abide by the law. You can't just let your niece act so recklessly.
Ignoring the imperial dignity, Your Majesty, I hope this matter can be decided fairly.
If Li Tingting is not dealt with severely, it will be difficult to win over the public and will also damage the dignity of the imperial court.
