The empress dowager didn't speak, but the imperial concubine who had followed the empress felt that the atmosphere was a little unnatural and awkward.

The woman sitting opposite her had a cold smile on her face, obviously looking down on this kind of behavior.

Hua Yuan felt nothing but admiration. Even such a small matter like this could make many people's eyes red with envy! The confrontation that was hidden was truly interesting.

There was only one emperor in the world. If these people didn't ask them to fight around in such a palace, they would probably go crazy with boredom. After all, the emperor's daily routine was too busy for him to handle. But he couldn't take into account so many people!

Since the empress dowager didn't speak, the servants didn't dare speak to themselves anymore. They also picked up their tea to cover up the awkward atmosphere. Hua Yuan watched from the side and felt that power and authority were really good things.

If one looked at Her Majesty, one would know that Her Majesty herself did not want to speak, so no one would rush to meet with misfortune. Hua Yuan felt that she had hugged this thigh very well! This was too good!

After a long while, the empress dowager spoke up. ”It's better if that Xi Wen girl takes the empress back.”

The empress was shocked, not knowing why the empress dowager would say such a thing. Xi Wen was one of her people, but she had never instructed Xi Wen to do anything since she had placed him by the empress dowager's side. She merely wanted to have peace of mind.

The empress dowager had always been swift and decisive in her actions, so she didn't immediately send Xi Wen away. The empress thought that the empress dowager didn't know that Xi Wen was one of her people. Unexpectedly, the empress dowager had always known about this.

With this thought in mind, the empress couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. She then recalled that the empress dowager didn't have the intention of returning to her palace with a more happy face at first. It was mentioned at this time. Why was that?

He hadn't instructed her to do anything these days.

The empress couldn't figure it out, but the imperial concubine was all smiles as she watched Ning Xuemo make a joke of herself.

”Esteemed Empress Dowager really does like the Empress Dowager's haste.” I can't help but feel envious when I look at it. ”The empress dowager personally bestowed this gift to her, so why are you standing there in a daze? Why haven't you hurried over to thank the empress dowager?”

Consort De's words were really overstepped by the empress dowager's. It could be said that she was extremely disrespectful to the empress!

However, this was her usual attitude towards the empress.

Consort De was already in her thirties, but because of the proper maintenance, she always acted like a little girl in front of the emperor. She was the emperor's favorite.

The fourth prince was naturally doted upon by the emperor as well. And his own son was trying so hard, wasn't this all Consort De's power? Speaking of which, Consort De really didn't think much of the empress.

The empress had been caught unprepared by the empress dowager's sudden act, but now that she heard Consort De's mockery, she couldn't help but feel resentful. He didn't show it on the surface.

It wasn't that she hadn't tried punishing Consort De before, but it was just that when he had just punished her, the Queen had no respect for him at all. As time passed, the empress no longer cared!

But at this moment, Consort De actually gave her face in front of the empress dowager. She really couldn't tolerate this.

As her cold gaze swept over Consort De, the empress said calmly and generously, ”Since muhou has said so, my wife will naturally bring the person back. ”Speaking of which, it's also my wife who is wrong. This Xi Wen was also a wife when she saw that she was obedient, so she wanted to send it to mother. Now, I don't know what wrong Xi Wen has done to make mother be so angry.”

The empress dowager knew that Hua Yuan's plight had something to do with the empress, but the empress didn't seem to be that stupid of a person, so she'd gone out to test if the empress knew the truth.

But after some probing, the empress dowager knew that the empress probably didn't know the truth.

Although there were some palace maids brought in by a bystander in her palace, they didn't seem to be a peaceful people. They all told her to arrange a place for her as a lowly palace maid.

If it was her own people, she would be able to use it without worry.

After this cycle, the only people who were not their own kind and were able to enter the inner chamber were the Empress's lines of happiness.

”Since that's the case, then the empress should bring the Xi Wen back. This Dowager is also tired now, you can disperse now.”
