Chapter 3 — The King Saved His Sister, And I Walked Straight To The Royal Palace

Bui Ngoc still stood in place. His face changed constantly. I believe that you will carefully think about what I just said. Chess game in the palace. It's slowly opening. Bui Ngoc began to interact with Crown Prince Bui Triet more. Outwardly, he remained neutral. But in the darkness, he passed the news to the Crown Prince. That's exactly what we expected. Bui Huyen's position began to shake. The Emperor increasingly lost trust in him. But Bui Huyen is not the type of person who is easy to deal with. Very soon after that. He started to counterattack. He took advantage of factions in the court. Start spreading rumors. Rumors say that I bewitched the Crown Prince. Rumors say that my intentions are deep. Those rumors even implicated the Giang family. Saying that the Jiang family is colluding with me inside and out. Attempting to manipulate the Reserve Army. Those rumors spread to the harem. The concubines all stay away from me. Some concubines are jealous of me. They even openly criticized me.

“A woman whose marriage was annulled and abandoned, yet still refuses to settle down.”

"Still dreaming of clinging to the Crown Prince, it's ridiculous."

Those words reached my ears. I don't care. Rumors cannot harm us in the slightest. What we care more about. This is Bui Huyen's true purpose. He doesn't just want to slander me. He wanted to take this opportunity to attack the Crown Prince. At the same time, he also criticized the Queen Mother. It was the Queen Mother who single-handedly arranged for me to enter the palace. Concubine Le Quy held a party at Ngu Hoa Garden. She intentionally invited all high-ranking concubines in the palace. Including me, a "Talent waiting to be promoted". Apparent. She wants to make me lose face. During the party. In front of everyone. Le Quy Phi deliberately mentioned the marriage between me and Bui Huyen.

“Giang Tai Nhan.”

Le Quy Phi smiled but didn't laugh.

"I heard that you were originally the fiancee of the Bui Vuong family."

“Why did you suddenly enter the palace like this?”

"What will people in the palace think about this?"

Her voice was filled with sarcasm. The concubines around were quietly chatting. They are waiting to see my joke. I put down the cup of tea in my hand. I looked towards Le Quy Phi.

“Your Highness Le Quy.”

“You are an elder in the palace.”

"You probably know that the annulment of the marriage was the Bui Vuong family's intention."

“The goddess only complied.”

“So what is there for people to object to?”

Le Quy Phi's face stiffened. She didn't expect me to be so frank. She was about to object. I interrupted her.

“And Bui Vuong family.”

“To save his cousin Uyen Nhi.”

"Openly abandoning his fiancee right on the wedding day."

“That is a truly shameless act.”

“It is a disgrace to the royal family.”

The words just ended. The whole hall was buzzing. Everyone looked towards Le Quy Phi. Le Quy Phi's face immediately turned pale.

“Don't spit blood on people!”

"Uyen Nhi is seriously poisoned, her life hangs in the balance!"

“Bui Huyen going to save him is a reasonable thing!”

“That kind of drama.”

I calmly spoke up.

“Have you found out who killed it yet?”

Le Quy Phi was stunned. She didn't understand why I asked that.

“That poison…”

She stammered.

“It was just an accident!”

“Unexpectedly?”

I laughed coldly.

“Or did someone do that on purpose?”

“Just to create an opportunity for the Bui Vuong family to abandon his fiancee?”

The eyes of Everyone turned to Le Quy Phi. They are all guessing the meaning of my words. Everyone is thinking about the hidden meaning behind that. There were beads of cold sweat on Le Quy Phi's forehead. She knows what I'm implying. She knows I'm suspicious of Uyen Nhi. At the same time, he also suspected Bui Huyen. I look towards everyone.

“Ladies and gentlemen.”

“The rumors in the palace cannot be completely believed.”

“An honest person is not afraid of slander.”

"Van Tinh entered the palace, only asking for a peaceful place."

“I just want to serve the Queen Mother.”

“If someone intentionally spreads false rumors and slanders the Giang family.”

“Slandering the Crown Prince.”

“Van Tinh will definitely not let it go easily.”

My words resonate strongly. Silenced the concubines who were still whispering. Also causing Le Quy Phi's plan to completely fail. She wanted to see me lose face. But I counterattacked her. She wanted to take this opportunity to attack the Crown Prince. I protect the Crown Prince again.
