"Okay, let's not argue about this issue. Let me ask you, what happened here today? Why did so many guards come to find you just now? But what happened between you and the emperor?
?”
The Empress Dowager asked three questions in a row, and at least she found a bit of the Empress Dowager's majesty, her expression was stern and serious.
"When did I have a dispute with the emperor? How come I don't even know about it? How did you know about it?" Ye Qingmian said in a mocking tone in order to highlight her ignorance.
"
"I advise you to tell everything honestly, so as not to suffer any physical pain." The Empress Dowager raised her thick eyebrows.
"Do you think I won't resist? If you think I will honestly let you do whatever you want every time, then you are totally wrong. I will not offend others unless they offend me. You are the elder.
I care about it once, but if it comes a second time or a third time, don’t blame me for not giving you face."
Although Ye Qingmian's tone was calm and leisurely, it was filled with a pressure that could not be refuted.
"I heard people say that Concubine Ye's wings have hardened recently. I didn't believe it at first, but now, it seems that she is no longer a chick."
There was a hint of smile on the Empress Dowager's face, and her sweet voice sounded like that of an unmarried woman.
"To say this is to praise me too much. How dare I be my concubine?"
Ye Qingmian responded directly, pretending not to hear the implication of the Empress Dowager. She did not want to get too involved with the Empress Dowager.
"Prince Mu has arrived." When the Empress Dowager wanted to speak, a summons from the guard outside made her open her mouth and close it again.
"Your Majesty, please give my regards to the Queen Mother." Nan Fengmu walked in with a sudden stride. His anxious eyes relaxed when he saw Ye Qingmian sitting on the chair, safe and sound, and turned to salute the Queen Mother.
"Your Majesty," the Empress Dowager's tone immediately changed from mocking to one of concern now.
"Why is the Queen Mother here? Could it be that Concubine Ye has done something to make you angry?" Nan Fengmu did not go to Ye Qingmian, but went to the Queen Mother first and looked at her seriously.
