Quick Wear: The Bad Girl is Reborn and No Longer Confused

Chapter 235 No Longer Helping in the Fight for the 5th Princess 11

This princess also heard that the eldest son of the Wen family is now in the Ministry of Justice, and my brother is currently in charge of the Ministry of Justice. "

"Pfft~"

"why are you laughing?"

"This princess laughs at how shallow some people are. They like to covet other people's things, and when they can't get what they want, they get angry and embarrassed. I originally thought it was dispensable, but Princess Anle's attitude makes me want to investigate more carefully."

Princess Anle's panic faded away, and she spoke calmly, "Hehehe, I just like that position. Since Fifth Sister is reluctant to give it to me, why are you being sarcastic?"

After saying this, he left with a dark face and the palace maid.

Xu Tao held up her face and tapped her fingers regularly on the table. What on earth could have made the Eighth Princess so shamelessly concerned about it?

She had been to the princess's mansion and found nothing special about it. Most of it had been renovated according to her preferences. The only place that remained unchanged was the garden. She thought it was exquisite and did not ask anyone to change it.

"Princess, you should rest."

Xu Tao nodded and planned to go and take a look tomorrow.

He slept until dawn and went to have breakfast with his mother as usual. However, he waited for a long time but she still didn't come back, so his eyes darkened.

"Let's go to Fengxiang Palace."

Xu Tao brought his men to the gate of Fengxiang Palace. The palace maid who went to report had not returned yet. After waiting for a cup of tea, he turned and walked towards the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

The emperor had just come out of his morning court and was still discussing state affairs with his ministers in the palace. Xu Tao looked anxious, "Eunuch Wei, how long will it take for my father to recover?"

"Princess An Ning, do you have something important to tell me? I can go inside and pass it on."

"Thank you, eunuch. My mother hasn't returned yet. I went to her palace to pay my respects to the maids, but there's been no news. I'm worried that something might have gone wrong."

"Princess An Ning, please wait a moment. I will pass the message on immediately."

Wei Ming entered the hall and looked at Emperor Xuan Jin's gloomy face, thinking that something was wrong. He waited quietly and did not dare to disturb him.

The prime minister, who was reporting, felt bitter, but had to bite the bullet and continue, "Your Majesty, the Huainan River has burst its banks due to floods, and the people are displaced and living in dire straits. Thousands have been killed..."

"Asshole, I didn't mention it before, but now I can't hide it anymore, do you still think I'm the emperor?"

Prime Minister Liu quickly knelt down with his forehead pressed to the ground, saying that he dared not.

"Don't dare? Is there anything else you wouldn't dare to do to deceive the emperor?"

Emperor Xuan Jin lost his temper for a while. After he had them leave, he rubbed his swollen forehead. He looked up and saw the person who was about to speak but hesitated. He asked, "What's the matter?"

Wei Ming thought about it and decided to tell him about the fifth princess’ request for an audience.

"Bastard!"

Emperor Xuan Jin took his anger out on the Empress. The father and daughter of the Liu family were of the same character. He stood up and walked outside the hall. Seeing An Ning crying, her eyes became increasingly angry.

"Father~"

"Don't be afraid, An Ning. I will take you to Fengxiang Palace right away."

The crowd went to Fengxiang Palace in a mighty procession. The eunuch following behind saw this and ran breathlessly to report the news. However, he was tripped by a palace maid who was in a hurry on the way and fell flat on his face. When he got up, he felt a piercing pain in his ankle and could not get up.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something's wrong."

'Clap clap clap'

The head maid beside the queen slapped her several times, "Slut, why are you making such a fuss? The queen is fine."

"Sister Amber, Your Majesty..."

Before the maid had finished speaking, Emperor Xuan Jin arrived at the inner hall. Seeing the empress lying on the chaise longue, doing Dankou, his face darkened. "The empress has no time to see An Ning. So you're fiddling with your nails?"

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. No one informed me that An Ning had arrived."

The Queen saw Emperor Xuan Jin's expression and thought to herself that it was not good, so she kept kneeling in greeting.

"Where's Concubine Shu?"

"I heard about the flood in Huainan, and I'm asking Concubine Shu to copy scriptures to pray for the people."

Emperor Xuan Jin laughed in anger, picked up the teacup on the table and slammed it down, shattering it into pieces. The boiling hot tea inside splashed onto the hem of the Empress's dress. She dared not speak out, especially seeing the bitch watching the show, she clenched her palms tightly.

Everyone was so frightened that they dared not breathe. The scene fell into an eerie silence. The Queen's body was swaying, as if she could fall down at any moment. "Your Majesty, I don't know what I have done wrong."

Emperor Xuan Jin played with the jade ring in his hand and looked at the empress in front of him seriously, with disappointment in his eyes. "I didn't know the empress's information was so magical. I just learned about the flood in Huainan, and the empress got the news even earlier than me."

The Queen's face turned pale. In her anxiety, she had forgotten that her father had just reported this to the Emperor this morning. She quickly knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, I also heard someone mention it..."

"I don't have time to listen to your sophistry. Wei Ming, go and bring Concubine Shu here. Since the Queen is so sincere, let her calm down and copy the scriptures well. Let the Four Concubines manage the palace power."

After Emperor Xuan Jin gave his orders, he left with a dark face and a flick of his sleeves.

The queen fell to the ground, her eyes fixed on the culprit.

Xu Tao was naturally not afraid. After all, they had already torn their faces apart, so who was afraid of whom? Seeing that his mother was safe, he felt relieved and took his people back to Yunhua Palace.

"Thank you for your hard work, An Ning."

Wen Yurui was not interested in managing official affairs at first, but now that she has realized that she is at the mercy of others, she also wants to get involved.

If An Ning hadn't called the emperor today, she would probably have to copy books every day for the next month.

"Mother, this is all my fault. I rejected Anle's request yesterday, and today the Queen found an excuse to punish you."

Xu Tao told her mother what happened yesterday, and then said, "Mother, I have to go out for something. You must stay in the palace and not go anywhere."

"Don't worry, mother. You must bring enough guards with you when you go out."

Wen Yurui smiled and nodded, but her expression darkened as she saw her daughter leave. She drummed her fingers on the edge of the table, lost in thought.

"Your Majesty, the Imperial Concubine is outside the palace."

"Please invite my sister in."

"Is my sister okay?"

"Don't worry, sister. I just asked you to copy some scriptures."

Xie Xinran sighed. The Queen's recent behavior made them increasingly confused. In previous years, they had always kept to themselves, but they didn't know why the Queen had been picking on them so frequently recently.

No matter how favored the princess is, she will have to get married in the future, and it will not threaten her position as queen or crown prince.

"Sister, other people care about the things we don't care about."

Xie Xinran understood it immediately, but after understanding it, she became more and more puzzled. It was just a cucumber, what was there to care about? Isn't it most important to have power and children, and to be able to ascend to that supreme position in the future?

If she hadn't known clearly that the Xie family could not produce a prince, she would still want to try hard to give birth to a son. It is not a pleasant feeling to have your destiny in the hands of others.
