Five Years Later, She Bombarded the Palace with a Miniature Version of the Regent

  Chapter 8

   "What time is it?" Hearing this, Yu Yunxi raised her eyes and asked such a question.

   They are all dying, yet they still ask what time it is.

  The butler sneered, and responded casually: "Chen Shi."

   "That's good." Yu Yunxi stood up with an extremely calm expression.

  Following the butler to the hall, she saw Aunt Qing being pressed to the ground from a distance, with whip marks all over her body and mottled with blood.

  This appearance...exactly like the day she was forced to get married.

  It's a bit ironic to think so.

   Noticing the eyes, Aunt Qing raised her head with difficulty, staring at her with eyes full of hatred.

  Yu Yunxi calmly withdrew her gaze, and then respectfully bowed to Concubine Ning.

   "Yun Xi met Concubine Mother."

   "Kneel down!" A teacup hit the ground heavily, and the tea splashed, wetting her skirt and shoes.

   The concubine was so angry that the servants did not dare to breathe.

  Nurse Liu stood beside her, gloating in her eyes.

   "Yun Xi doesn't know how I have offended Concubine Mother, so please tell Concubine Mother." Yu Yunxi straightened her back, she slowly raised her head, and looked at Concubine Ning calmly.

   "Princess, you ordered your people to burn the ancestral hall of the palace. This is the first crime. The slave servant kindly reminded you to confess to the concubine. If you don't accept it, it's fine. You also beat the slave servant. This is the second crime."

   Before Concubine Ning could speak, Nanny Liu jumped out and accused Yu Yunxi loudly.

  Hearing the words, Yu Yunxi laughed instead.

   "My concubine is the master, and you are a slave. You have provoked this concubine again and again. This slap is not unfair to you. I believe that the mother concubine would not like to see a slave riding on the master."

Yu Yunxi glanced at Concubine Ning with a gloomy face, and continued to say calmly: "Also, as for the matter of burning the ancestral hall you mentioned, Madam Liu, why would you want to commit a crime? This princess did not do anything." How can you admit it?"

   "Aunt Qing has already recruited, and the evidence is solid, you still want to deny it!" Nanny Liu scolded loudly.

  If others heard this, they would definitely panic, but Yu Yunxi's expression was normal.

  She turned her head and looked at Aunt Qing with pretended doubts: "Aunt Qing, Nanny Liu said you recruited, what did you recruit?"

  Although Aunt Qing hates Yun Xi to death now, her mind is still clear.

  She kowtowed heavily, and said loudly: "Reporting to the princess, the slaves don't know anything. The ancestral hall was burned, which has nothing to do with the slaves."

  Hearing this, Yu Yunxi's eyes flickered slightly, and the worries in her heart were completely put down.

   Sure enough, as she thought, Aunt Qing never confessed.

  They are grasshoppers on the same rope. If she tricks, everyone will die.

   Nanny Liu was just cheating on her

  That's why she was betting just now that although her aunt hated her, she was not stupid.

   Fortunately, she bet right.

   "You poor maidservant, you're still talking hard!" Nanny Liu became furious when she saw that the routine was not going to work, and wanted to hit Aunt Qing.

   "Liu Nanny, the mother concubine is still here, she hasn't made a statement yet, how can you be arrogant?" Yu Yunxi raised her hand, clasped Liu Nanny's wrist, and scolded in a cold voice.

"enough!"

   Concubine Ning slapped the table hard, her face was covered with dark clouds, and her disgusted eyes swept over Yun Xi.

   "You have only been in the door for three days, and you have made the palace a mess! The Ai family asked you, did you do anything about the ancestral hall?"

   "No!" Yu Yunxi replied firmly.

   "How dare you lie to the Ai family, someone has already seen your maidservant go to the ancestral hall." Dowager Ning slapped the table again, her eyes seemed to kill Yu Yunxi.

Yu Yunxi didn't panic, she sighed, "Mother, I admit, I did let Aunt Qing go to the ancestral hall. But it wasn't to burn the ancestral hall. I feel sorry for the prince, so I want Aunt Qing to replace me and give the ancestral hall to the ancestors." Zong burns incense to bless the prince."

   "You're just arguing!" Nanny Liu became anxious again.

   "Could it be that Mammy Liu saw Aunt Qing light the fire with her own eyes?" Yu Yunxi turned her head, her sharp eyes fell on Madam Liu, her aura was strong.

   "Slave, I, I..." Madam Liu paused.

   "Yun Xi implores mother and concubine to be clear. I married into the Prince Regent's Palace from the Yu family, and I am already a prince's man. I hope that the Palace will be better before it is too late. How could I do something that is not good for the Palace?"

   At the end of Yu Yunxi's speech, her glasses were reddish and her voice choked up.

   Isn't it just acting, she can do it too!

  Concubine Ning stared at Yu Yunxi with a cold face, her expression was clearly that she didn't believe her words.

   "Come here, punish Aijia, today Aijia really wants to find out why."

  Hearing this, Yu Yunxi's eyes darkened slightly.

   Sure enough...

  A woman like Concubine Ning who came out of the deep palace has extremely high means and a very cruel heart, and she will never let her go easily.

  Getting the order, Nanny Liu smiled coldly. She rolled up her sleeves and walked over quickly.

  She will torture this **** to death today.

   Just as Liu Mama was about to clamp Yu Yunxi with her hands, the servant at the door rushed to report.

   "Concubine Tai, people from the Prime Minister's Mansion are here."

   These words made Nanny Liu froze.

  Yu Yunxi's mouth curved slightly.

  She just asked the housekeeper what time it was, because she wanted to confirm the time when Yu's home would come.

  Today is the third day after getting married, so she should return home logically.

   But Feng Yili's situation is special, so Concubine Ning sent someone to send a letter to Yu's family the night before, asking Yu's family to come to the palace in person.

  Her good father's status is not as high as that of the royal family, but at least he is the prime minister. This face... the concubine should give it some.

   But Yu Yunxi's smile didn't last long, because she heard the boy add another sentence.

   "The person who came with me is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

  Prince? What is he here for? A bit of disgust flashed in Yu Yunxi's eyes.

   "The crown prince is here?" Concubine Ning quickly stood up with a slightly serious expression.

   After being silent for a while, she glanced at Yu Yunxi and Aunt Qing with icy eyes, and then said, "Come here, send this lowly maidservant to the doctor's house. The princess and Ai's family will welcome you."

   Is this a matter of not pursuing the ancestral hall for the time being?

  Yu Yunxi lowered her eyes, this was within her expectation, the only variable was the sudden visit of the crown prince.

   After a while, several figures appeared at the door.

   "I have seen the empress dowager." Yu Zhongcheng saluted Dowager Ning skillfully.

   "My daughter, Yu Wanrong, has met the empress dowager." The woman in pink, with skin as white as cream, also spoke softly.

  She is Yu Wanrong, the prostitute's daughter of the Yu Mansion.

  Concubine Ning responded with a half-smile, and then her eyes fell on the prince.

  Prince Feng Weizhou has sword-like eyebrows and phoenix eyes, and wears white clothes with cloud patterns embroidered on the cuffs, with a cool and elegant demeanor.

   "The prince came here today, why?" She tentatively asked.
