Only when Xu Shiqiu's figure gradually disappeared from the street, did the commoners who heard his words earlier start to discuss among themselves.

”With the Xu Family people here, the enemies will definitely not dare to attack us. We will definitely be safe!”

When the bailiffs heard these words, they immediately looked at each other with bitter smiles. It was likely that they would not be able to report today.

Inside the Phoenix Palace, Empress Hu had just changed into the empress's auspicious robe. At this time, Mama Su walked in quickly.

Seeing Mama Su quickly enter, the Empress Hu raised her hand to stop the Mama Hu from tidying her clothes. She looked at the Mama Su and asked: ”What's the matter?”

”Esteemed Empress, His Majesty sent word over that he would deal with this matter.”

Right after Mama Su finished speaking, she immediately sneered and said: ”He knows how to punish? How could he bear to do such a thing? That's his son! ” Empress Hu was angry in her heart. When she found out about the news that was sent in from outside the palace, she held her breath.

But before he could even release his anger, he was already blocked by Emperor Ruikang. How could Empress Hu be happy?

”Right now, no one in the capital doesn't know that I, Shu'er, am protecting him. No one doesn't know that he wants to pass on his position to Fifth Brother. Now that such a thing had happened, he actually still wanted to cover up for his son? Does he not know that the reason he is protecting that slut's son is because he is embarrassing the fifth brother? ” After Empress Hu said this, she raised her hand to take care of the last mistake in her auspicious uniform. Then, he looked at Mama Su and said: ”Since that's the case, then I don't need to worry about anything anymore.”

Mama Hu and Mama Su were shocked when they heard Empress Hu's words. They did not expect that their master, who had been enduring for so many years, would actually not be able to endure it at this time.

”Men, spread the word. Your Imperial Consort charged into my palace, demoted to a sixth rank noble, and moved to a side chamber.” After saying this, the Empress Hu didn't care about the expressions of the Mama Hu and herself at all. She continued to instruct, ”Take my Phoenix Seal and Gold Book with you.

The empress originally had the right to bestow the title of consort, but to reprimand high ranking concubines required His Majesty's consent.

Right now, Empress Hu wanted to let Emperor Ruikang choose between following her heart and humiliating her imperial concubine, or continuing to spoil the mother and son.

Emperor Ruikang knew that he was not in a good mood today. Between his son and his woman, he had chosen his son.

When the news of the imperial concubine charging at the empress and being demoted to a rank six noble character spread through the palace, everyone knew that the empress had taken action.

But even so, Noble Liu was still the Emperor Ruikang's concubine, and she still had a son that was about to go out.

Based on Emperor Ruikang's character, he feels that he owes you and he will compensate you afterwards.

This was also the reason why Ye Jingche dared to attack Dong Shu at this moment in time.

However, he did not expect that his mother's reprimand was only the beginning.

When the Empress Hu heard the news, she immediately took action against Ye Jingche's mother. On the other side, Xu Shiqiu protected Dong Shu and when he returned home, he did not question the few big sized men and directly brought Dong Shu to his room.

When he saw the red and swollen part on Dong Shu's lower back, he immediately shouted out sternly, ”We should have skin that person alive today!”

Hearing Xu Shiqiu's words, Dong Shu did not know whether to protect herself or comfort him.

After thinking about it, Dong Shu still looked at Xu Shiqiu and said, ”This is forgetting that there's a carriage charging at me from behind, it really doesn't matter, I'll use a hot cloth to cover it tonight.” After saying that, Dong Shu saw that Xu Shiqiu still had a face full of killing intent, and immediately continued: ”Husband, don't think of ruining your future for a big man. This matter cannot be hidden from us today, so we can punish them in broad daylight. ”

Xu Shiqiu knew what Dong Shu said was right, but as a man, she was still a husband.

This was his shame. He would never allow such a thing to happen again!

Dong Shu could feel Xu Shiqiu's anger, but she didn't know what to say to console him.

Just as the two of them were at a loss as to what to say, Ling Xiang's voice came from outside the door, ”Master, Madam, Old Madame found out about what happened today. She was about to come over just now, but was persuaded by mother Li.”

Just as Ling Xiang finished speaking, she glared at Xu Shiqiu while holding onto her chest.

In Xu Shiqiu's eyes, Dong Shu was acting like a spoiled child. He raised her hand and touched the top of Dong Shu's head, and then said: I'll have someone bring you some hot water to soak in for a bath later. I'll go check on Mother at Main Yard first.
