Chapter 3 - Dealing with Peach Blossom

Yun Qin was crossing her legs and gossiping with a little palace maid, listening excitedly. She didn't realize that someone was standing behind her with a dark expression until the palace maid saw Ye Han, who had a dark expression on his face, and quickly kneeled down. "Greetings, Your Highness."

Yun Qin spat out the melon seeds, turned her head and greeted with a pretentious tone, "Your Highness, good morning."

The corner of Ye Han's mouth twitched, his ears picking up the sound of Mu Ranshu following him over. He picked him up and threw him into her embrace, then said softly, "Help this king settle this annoying woman, and don't let her bother this king anymore."

Yun Qin almost choked on her melon seeds, she then coughed and stared at Ye Han: "Do you want to choke me to death?"

The corner of Ye Han's mouth twitched, and a delicate voice came from behind, "big brother Yan … "Who is that woman?"

He originally wanted to let go of Yun Qin's hand, but he instantly stiffened, and retracted it once more.

Yun Qin didn't mind now as she stuck her head out from Ye Han's embrace and greeted the beauty with a smile.

"Hey! Beautiful... Cough … Girl! I am Yun Qin, and I am very happy … Ouch … What are you doing? "

Being pinched by someone, Yun Qin immediately jumped and stared at Ye Han: "Are you sick?"

Ye Han raised his eyebrows and threatened, "This king orders you to chase her out."

Yun Qin snorted coldly, she was extremely proud, "You're begging me, can't you show any sincerity?"

Ye Han lowered his eyes, his face completely black. "You want to extort this king?"

Yun Qin looked at the green faced little girl behind her, and immediately became happy, pushing Ye Han away, her lips hooked into a smile, "If you're not willing, then forget it," she said as she turned to Mu Ranshu, "Who is this Miss Qian Jin?"

Mu Ranshu saw that the two of them were acting as if they were close to each other, and stomped her feet in anger, "You are that Princess? Really … How shameless! "

The corner of Yun Qin's mouth twitched, "Miss, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want."

Mu Ranshu could not be bothered with her and directly pounced towards Ye Han, "big brother Yan, this Princess is too arrogant … "You must uphold justice for Shu'er …"

Ye Han's footsteps flashed, causing Mu Ranshu to flop to the air. Yun Qin was happy to watch the show from the side, but seeing that Mu Ranshu was going to continue chasing after him, Ye Han pulled Yun Qin closer as he gnashed his teeth and asked, "What do you want?"

Yun Qin extended a finger and gestured, "One thousand gold, not a single cent less!"

Ye Han snorted, "I'll leave him to you." With that, he turned and left, not even looking at Mu Ranshu who was about to cry but instead running faster than a rabbit.

Mu Ranshu's eyes were filled with tears, "big brother Yan …"

Mu Ranshu saw that Ye Han had disappeared again, and immediately wiped away his tears, coldly saying, "Who's your sister? Shameless! This young lady is the empress dowager's niece. How can any random cat or dog have access to such a treasure? "

Hey! Why was this little girl cursing?

Yun Qin could no longer remain calm. So what if she was the empress dowager's niece?

"You're the famous Miss Mu." Yun Qin stroked her chin and laughed, unabashedly saying sarcastically, "This Princess's first time here, I heard that Miss Mu coveted it … Oh No... It was because she adored our Prince that she couldn't shake him off. Now, it seems that you really live up to your name. "

How could Mu Ranshu still be proud? She only had a red face left.

"You … Yun Qin... You dare to insult me? "

Yun Qin patted the corner of her skirt, and said with disdain: "I'm just speaking the truth, something that the entire Imperial Palace knows, yet you dare to do it, so you don't allow others to talk about it with relish?"

Mu Ranshu had been spoiled since she was young. When had she ever seen such a rogue girl, she was so angry that she wanted to beat her up. "Shut up!"

Yun Qin showed disdain in his eyes as she effortlessly grabbed her wrist.

"Miss Mu, this Princess has been ordered by the Emperor to move to the Imperial Palace to foster their relationship. Since you have followed me eagerly to the Imperial Palace, this Princess should not bother with your words. But since we are both living in the Imperial Palace's territory, I advise you to restrain yourself."

With a smile, she waved her hand. "Miss Mu, if you offend this Princess, I'll let the dogs bite you."

Just as she finished speaking, a ball of yellow fluffy fur from the corner suddenly rushed over with shining eyes, screaming at Mu Ranshu loudly, scaring the little beauty out of her wits.

"Yun Qin! If you dare to do this to me, aren't you afraid the empress dowager will punish you? "

Upon hearing this, Yun Qin immediately cried as she held Big Yellow's pitiful look, "Miss Mu, you are Huang Hua's daughter, yet you chased me to my room. I will protect my sovereignty, not only will I not seek for money, I will not harm you, what is there to be afraid of? However, Miss Mu is unmarried. If this reputation were to spread, I wonder if you would be able to get married in the future? "

She pretended to cry. She was clearly talking to Mu Ranshu, but her hands kept touching Big Yellow as she looked at the dog that was completely reprimanded. The scene was extremely strange.

Since this was Yun Qin's territory, she couldn't do anything about it. She had no choice but to be wary of Yun Qin's words, so she could only grit her teeth and glared at Yun Qin fiercely, "You just wait for me."

Yun Qin hugged Big Yellow, looked at Mu Ranshu's fleeing figure, and leisurely shouted: "Welcome again!"

Mu Ranshu's footsteps paused, then she lifted her skirt and ran even faster.

Yun Qin grinned and walked towards the study happily, "Done!"

Making a rotten peach blossom for Ye Han, Yun Qin had even scammed Ye Han for a sum of money, so there was no need to mention how pleased she was with herself.

In the study, Ye Han listened to his subordinate's report, his eyes flashing, his voice still as cold as before, "This woman is really bold."

He frowned and thought for a moment, then ordered: Send people to pay attention to Mu Ranshu's movements.

Based on her personality, she probably wouldn't let this go easily.

Because of this, Mu Ranshu started to hate Yun Qin. Relying on the fact that she was the empress dowager's cousin, it was not enough to make things difficult for Yun Qin at all in the Imperial Palace.

Yun Qin walked around the palace maid as she curiously asked, "Where is the empress dowager?"

Right after he finished speaking, Mu Ranshu came out from behind the screen and said with a smile, "Your Majesty … "He'll be here shortly."

She was not familiar with the palace, but had met with Mu Ranshu twice in the past, and had been troubled by her. Luckily, she managed to resolve it using the face of the emperor, but didn't expect Mu Ranshu to start acting like a demon again today.

"This Princess will go to the front hall to wait for the empress dowager." She raised her foot to leave, but was stopped by the tall and big palace maid behind her.

Yun Qin looked at the proud Mu Ranshu, and pursed her lips, "Miss Mu, this Princess is not someone you can casually punish, what do you want to do?"

Mu Ranshu sneered. Her gaze landed on a piece of jade that was sparkling and translucent at her side.

Pow!

The jade was smashed into powder in front of Yun Qin!

A group of people rushed in from outside as they hurriedly picked up a few pieces of jadeite. A handsome eunuch stomped his feet and shouted at Yun Qin, "Princess, this is a token of affection given to the empress dowager by the late emperor. She's so precious, why are you being so careless?"

"This is bad …"

Yun Qin looked at Mu Ranshu who was standing by the side with raised eyebrows, looking extremely pleased. She was just about to refute, when a loud voice came from the door, "What's going on?

The court ladies turned their heads, pale with fright. "We pay our respects to the empress dowager!"

Mu Ranshu rushed in front of the empress dowager with tears streaming down her eyes, accusing her, "Empress Dowager, Shu'er kindly invited Princess to have a look, but didn't expect her to throw her temper at Shu'er and break your jade.

After the empress dowager heard this, she did not care about Mu Ranshu any longer and ordered her people to bring the jade over.

"Evil creature! Evil creature!" The empress dowager was so angry that she trembled, and looked at Yun Qin viciously. "Princess is so imposing, she doesn't even put This Dowager in her eyes."

Yun Qin knelt down as her mind was in a mess. She calmed down at the most critical moment and said, "Empress Dowager, Yun Qin didn't break the jade pendant, it was …"

"Reporting to the empress dowager, Princess accidentally broke the jade." A palace maid suddenly rushed out and knelt beside Yun Qin, speaking in a righteous tone, "This servant saw with my own eyes that Princess and Miss Mu had a conflict and then smashed the jade pendant in anger. Miss Mu tried to persuade her, but Princess said that she had the emperor's backing, and even the empress dowager couldn't do anything about it."

lowered his eyes. He knew that he had been tricked and was speechless.

She sighed. She could tell how angry the old empress dowager was just from the sound of breathing from above her head.

"Esteemed Empress Dowager, Yun Qin was wrongly accused, please investigate."

The empress dowager gave a cold snort and waved her sleeves, commanding, "This humble one will do his best. But before that, I ask Princess to stay in prison for two days and wake up. This place isn't your home, Princess can't do whatever she wants!"

Yun Qin was stunned, then she heard Mu Ranshu berating him, "Hurry up and suppress her, is keeping her enough to make the empress dowager angry?"

"Yes sir!"

The corner of Yun Qin's mouth pressed up tight as she was forced out by the guards. Facing Mu Ranshu's cold eyes, her heart was in panic for no reason.

Two hours later, Yun Qin's panic was proven to be genuine.

Suddenly, Yun Qin was tied up and was thrown in front of Mu Ranshu, unable to move.

She looked coldly at the richly dressed woman before her and sighed, "Miss Mu, this Princess is after all, the pro-Princess. Do you still want to use lynching?"

Mu Ranshu waved her hand to dismiss all the jailers. She whipped them fiercely under her feet, causing the ground to be covered in dust and the thick smell of blood in the Sky Prison to permeate through the air.

Yun Qin subconsciously closed her eyes in fear, only to hear Mu Ranshu sneering, "Aren't you proud of yourself? "Why are you so timid now?"

As he said that, he swung his whip, striking Yun Qin this time.
