Chapter 10
Chapter 10 — On the big wedding day, my husband ignored me and personally carried my pregnant sister to the palanquin.
"The child in her womb."
"It's a cruel species that cannot be revealed to the world."
"Leave such a person."
"Entering the royal forbidden area."
"Appear before your ladyship."
"It's more than just an insult to everyone present."
"It's also a serious insult to the royal family's dignity."
"It's also a disrespect of His Majesty's majesty."
"The Queen."
"You say it."
"Is that so?"
Last sentence. I asked very softly. It was like a resounding slap. Straight to the Queen's face. Don't you want to insult me? Don't you want to use Tham Vi Vi as a knife in your hand? So I'll let that same knife turn its tip upside down. Hit her hard. I want to check it out. The crime of "seven murders" is along with this crime of "disrespecting the royal family". Can you bear it or not? The Queen's face instantly turned pale. Her nails dug deeply into the armrest of the chair. The situation was created by her own hands, a series of plans that she was always proud of. At this moment, it's like a joke. I easily flipped it to the bottom. Not only that, I also brought an even sharper blade in front of her. Let her decide whether to stab me or herself. She stared at me, the murderous intent in her eyes had almost turned into reality. If looks could kill, I'm afraid I would have been covered in injuries by now. The atmosphere in the main hall froze to the extreme. Everyone held their breath, watching this smokeless battle. They watched as Princess Tinh, who had just entered the capital like me, gradually pushed the high-ranking Queen to the brink. After a long while, the Queen gritted her teeth and squeezed out each word.
"Tinh Vuong Phi, you are so brave!"
"Are you questioning this palace?"
I met her gaze, did not avoid it, did not retreat, the corners of my lips still maintained a faint smile.
"I dare not dare."
"I just feel resentful for the Queen."
"You are kind, you can't bear to see a weak woman wandering outside, so you feel compassion."
"But in this world there are always unreasonable people who consider other people's kindness as capital so they can do whatever they want."
"She has ruined her own reputation, and even wants to drag her mother down, drag the whole royal family down with her."
"Using such malicious intentions, everyone is angry, heaven and earth will not tolerate it!"
These words from me, on the surface, seem to be helping her relieve the siege. But in reality, it blocked all her escape routes. I gave her a step. A step to put all the blame on Tham Vi Vi's head. If she steps down, it means admitting that she doesn't look at people clearly and is not strict with management. If she doesn't step down, it means admitting the crime of "disrespecting the royal family". Regardless of the path, today her dignity will be lost. The queen was so angry that her whole body trembled. Of course she understood what I meant. But she couldn't swallow this anger. She is the Queen of a country, yet she is forced to go to such lengths by a little girl.
"Where are you?"
She suddenly slammed down on the table and shouted loudly.
"Concubine Tinh Vuong was rude and insulted this palace. Catch her for this palace!"
The guards outside the palace immediately took action when they heard the order and in the blink of an eye rushed into the main hall. The shining swords and spears all pointed straight at me. The ladies present all cried out in horror and continuously retreated back in fear. Thanh Lam's face immediately changed and she quickly stood in front of the person. I gently placed my hand on her shoulder, signaling her not to be nervous. I looked at the guards who were gradually approaching, with not the least bit of fear on their faces. I bet, she doesn't dare to really touch me. Touching me would completely tear the reputation of Tinh Vuong Palace. Touching me is also announcing to the entire court that she cannot tolerate a royal concubine ordained by the Emperor himself. She couldn't bear the consequences. At the right moment, the situation is as tense as a string, just touching it makes it explode. A calm, majestic voice, carrying supreme authority, suddenly rang out from outside the hall.
"Stop."
Those two words are not big, but they are like two huge, heavy mountains pressing down on everyone's hearts. The guards who had just rushed in immediately stopped. The anger on the Queen's face also instantly froze. Everyone simultaneously looked in the direction of the sound. I only saw a middle-aged man wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, tall, not angry but confident, surrounded by a group of eunuchs and maids, striding in. It's the person.
