Chapter 19 — The Queen Mother Repays Gratitude - In This Life I Will Not Be Afraid of Confrontation

Updated 10/08/2026 5 min read

Wei Tien's appearance was like a black lightning that ripped through the stuffy atmosphere in Kun Ninh Palace. As soon as he appeared, the temperature in the main hall seemed to immediately drop more than ten degrees. Those originally domineering eunuch maids all instantly became obedient quails, each bowing their heads, not even daring to breathe. Even Ly Duc Toan, the chief eunuch of Khon Ninh Palace, when he saw Wei Tien, showed unconcealed fear. He quickly bowed, smiled flatteringly and said:

"It turns out that the puppet master of the army is coming, the servant... the servant did not have time to welcome him, I hope the governor will forgive me."

Wei Tien didn't even glance at him. His cold eyes like a venomous snake just glanced around On Uyen's and my faces. Finally his eyes stopped on me. Those eyes were full of scrutiny, exploration, and the same kind of excitement that only a hunter has when he sees his prey.

“I am Admiral Dong Xuong, Wei Tien.”

He opened his mouth, his voice was soft but carried a penetrating force that sent chills down people's spines.

“Are you Tu Thanh Vi?”

Our hearts are shocked. In the end, he still had to face this great eunuch from his previous life who was so powerful and killed people like trash. I didn't answer, I just lowered my eyes slightly, pretending to be scared and uneasy. On Uyen's face from the moment Wei Tien appeared became extremely unsightly. She and Wei Tien were nominal allies, and later assistants to the little emperor. But in fact, they are opponents who are both cautious and wary of each other. She was afraid that Wei Tien would find out the secret that she had been humiliated many times by Crown Prince An Quoc Cong. But she didn't know that he had known this for a long time. He kept it a secret not out of pity, but as a means to control her. Waiting until the premature prince ascends the throne, that secret will become a rope tying the Queen Mother's neck, causing her to only obediently follow all his arrangements. Today, Wei Tien suddenly appeared and specifically wanted to take me away. It's no different than openly challenging her authority as Queen.

“Fake Governor.”

On Uyen's voice was cold as ice.

“This place is someone's Kun Ninh Palace.”

"Tu Thanh Vi is a guest summoned to the palace by someone."

"What do you mean you just came and wanted to take away someone's family?"

"In the Governor's eyes... is there still a palace? Is there still a king's law?"

What she said was extremely heavy. If it were someone else, I'm afraid I would have knelt down and begged for forgiveness. But Wei Tien only let out a soft laugh that made people's skin crawl.

“Your Majesty, calm down your anger.”

The ceiling fan in his hand swung gently.

“Of course I don't dare not put people in my sight.”

“It's just that the Holy side just received a secret report.”

"Says that there are remnants of the previous dynasty sneaking into the capital, plotting nefarious things."

"And this Miss Tu has a little connection with that evil."

"The Holy Dragon's Face is furious. He ordered me to take Miss Tu back to Dong Xuong and carefully 'interrogate'."

“This is also for the safety of the lady.”

"Think about it, if Miss Tu is really a rebel and today's collision damages your phoenix body, then even if I die ten thousand times, it will be difficult for me to forgive myself."

His words were tight and without any gaps. Just married the emperor support, placing himself in a moral position "for the Queen's thoughts". On Uyen was so angry that he was shaking but couldn't refute a word. She knows that the so-called "residuals of the previous dynasty" are basically just a fabrication. That's just an excuse Wei Tien used to rob people. His real purpose is to learn from us the whereabouts of that child. From there, hold the most important chess piece firmly in your hand. Truly a one-two punch! On Uyen looked at me, his eyes extremely complicated. She hates me. But the more she understood that if I fell into Wei Tien's hands, I would be a bigger threat to her. She can't let me be taken away by Wei Jin! Right when she was about to risk everything to forcefully keep me. I suddenly took action. I made a "thump" sound and knelt to the ground. He slammed his head towards Wei Tien.

“Your Majesty, please reconsider!”

'ay ta's voice carried tears, filled with injustice and fear.

"The women are unjust! The women are unjust!"

"The woman is just the daughter of an ordinary villager in Phong Thanh. It's also her first time coming to the capital. How can she be a remnant of the previous dynasty?"

“I pray that Lord Governor shows his kindness and spares the women a way to live!”

My sudden kneeling made everyone stunned. On Uyen was stunned. Wei Tien was also stunned. They probably didn't expect that just now I had a sharp tongue and wouldn't give up even half a step, so why did I suddenly become so weak and easy to bully? Wei Tien squinted his dark eyes, looking at me with interest.

"Oh? Are you unjust?"

“So why do you think it's related to the party chaos?”

I cried and used my sleeve to wipe my tears, pretending to be scared out of my wits.

“Back… back, Lord Governor.”

“The women... the women don't even know.”

“A few days ago, a stranger actually came looking for a female citizen.”
