After glaring at Su Xia Yue with her resentful eyes, Nan Gong Yi Chen reminded Nan Gong Ling Yun and Su Xia Yue with a fake smile.

"Whether I can become an imperial concubine or not will have to be decided by Imperial Mother. Third brother, don't hope for more, the greater the disappointment, okay?"

"Heh heh." Nan Gong Ling Yun laughed coldly.

That smile carried a wave of shocking charisma, as though it was confident enough that it was not afraid of what Nan Gong Yi Chen said.

Su Xia Yue could not help but feel a little more at ease as well.

Nan Gong Yi Chen's face was ashen. He grunted angrily, then flicked his sleeves and left. not giving Nan Gong Ling Yun any face at all. It was as if the relationship between the two of them had long since reached the point where they were as incompatible as fire and water, let alone being absolutely irreconcilable.

Su Xia Yue turned and look at Nan Gong Ling Yun.

"It seems like you brought me to a world of fire and water …"

"It should be called a lively world." Nan Gong Ling Yun corrected him with a smile.

Behind the two of them, Fifth Princess's face was filled with black lines.

She clearly wanted to leave, but she dared not move against Nan Gong Ling Yun's dignity. After Nan Gong Ling Yun found out that she had cheated Su Xia Yue, her current situation was not much better than the prisoners in the prison. He could only hope that the empress, Xiao Fei and the others could quickly appear, or else she would definitely be tortured to death by this "perverted, unrighteous" royal brother.

After a short while, Su Zi Zhe arrived in front of Nan Gong Ling Yun and the others to report to them.

"Prince, esteemed wangfei, the empress has an order to invite the wangfei to meet with the empress dowager and all her concubines in front of the Eternal Longevity Hall alone."

"Let Yue Er go alone?" Nan Gong Ling Yun slightly narrowed his eyes, his gaze fierce and sinister.

This was clearly not a good feast!

However …

Su Xia Yue actually did not mind, and said to Nan Gong Ling Yun with a smile: "I, Su Xia Yue, have never been afraid of meeting anyone, don't worry! They can't eat me either. "

With that, Su Xia Yue took the first step and followed Su Zi Zhe.

Behind Su Xia Yue, Nan Gong Ling Yun revealed a worried expression.

Fifth Princess had a strange smile on her face.

She already knew that Su Xia Yue definitely wouldn't have any good intentions when she went this time. However, no matter what her fate was, it was definitely her own fault. If it wasn't for her bringing disaster upon him, how could Nan Gong Yi Jin have entered the demonic path? And she even became enemies with her royal brother?

Just you wait, as long as I stay here for a few days and the imperial palace, I will definitely not have a good day!

At this time, Nan Gong Hong Yun had long since forgotten about begging Su Xia Yue to be her master, to teach her how to refine Violet Perception Pill. Su Xia Yue had long forgotten that it was she who killed them first, hence Su Xia Yue tried her best to retaliate. Nan Gong Ling Yun had warned her many times but to no avail. If she did not protect her own woman at this time, wouldn't it be a waste of her manhood to do so?

At this moment, the days of tit for tat had already passed. The two of them looked at Su Xia Yue's back with different expressions, waiting.

There were already several people waiting there within the Hall of Longevity.

Sitting on the throne was a kind-looking old lady. She was dressed in a strict and meticulous manner. From the looks of it, she should be the empress dowager of Purple Night Kingdom. And the one that the empress dowager was aiming for was the current emperor who was dressed in bright yellow dragon robes, Nan Gong Ling Yun's father, Nangong Tiancheng.

It had to be said that he was somewhat similar to Nan Gong Ling Yun. However, Nangong Tiancheng's body did not seem to be in a good condition. He was sitting there sickly and his breathing was uneven.

As for the person closest to Nangong Tiancheng, it was a middle-aged woman. She wore the most gorgeous clothes. Judging from his attire, he should be the Purple Prince's matriarch. She sat upright by the emperor's side, dignified and graceful with a myriad of etiquette. It was just that did not seem to be moved at all.

In addition, there were three concubines seated at the empress's seat.

One of them looked at Su Xia Yue with a gentle smile in his eyes, but when his gaze looked to the side, his eyes revealed calmness and patience. The other had incomparably sharp eyes, as if she wanted to carefully look at Su Xia Yue's body. The other was only eight or nine years older than him, unusually tender, young and beautiful, and her gaze was also incomparably lively.

Before coming here, Su Zi Zhe had told her that other than the empress, the only people remaining in the rear palace of the Purple Night Kingdom were the matriarch s of the Second Prince Nan Gong Jing Ge, as well as the matriarch s of Nan Gong Ling Yun and Nan Gong Yi Jin and the matriarch s of Nan Gong Hong Yun.

Xiao Fei's personality was naturally vicious and ruthless, probably because of that incomparably sharp gaze.

And the Consort, with a natural disposition of being gentle and weak, should be the one who kept on smiling at him. As for the extremely lively one, it was probably Nan Gong Hong Yun's matriarch, imperial concubine.

Very good, Nan Gong Ling Yun's matriarch, had been smiling at him this entire time.

He seemed to be very satisfied with her and she seemed to find it easy to get along with him.

Su Xia Yue could not help but feel a huge weight in her heart.

But not long after, Su Xia Yue frowned once again.

Because in the Purple Night Kingdom, no matter which prince or princess it was, a proper wife had to be chosen by the empress dowager, emperor, and empress. And as Nan Gong Ling Yun's matriarch, he didn't have such a right to make that decision. Currently, the empress and Xiao Fei were looking at him with unfriendly gazes. The empress dowager and the emperor, on the other hand, seemed to be neutral. As for that giggling imperial concubine, Su Xia Yue had completely ignored him.

After observing for a while, they looked over Su Xia Yue. Su Xia Yue also looked at them once.

Under Su Zi Zhe's reminder, Su Xia Yue slightly bent down and bowed according to her status as the Ling Wang's Consort.

Instead of shouting, the empress put on a cold face and froze her. Seemingly, he wanted to show his might to Su Xia Yue.

However …

How would she know that Su Xia Yue was such a stubborn guy?

After waiting for a while, when no one called her to get up, Su Xia Yue got up. She even looked up fearlessly at the queen on the steps in front of him.

At this moment, the neither haughty nor humble expression on Su Xia Yue's face was the biggest provocation to the empress.

"How dare you! Did This Dowager tell you to get up? "

"Didn't you wake me up?" Su Xia Yue raised her eyebrows and asked righteously, "Why didn't you wake me up?"

The empress was stung, and the anger in her eyes grew.

"How preposterous! You, a commoner who just entered the palace, actually saluted as an imperial concubine. It's good enough that this one didn't punish you, but you still dare to stand up on your own accord? This is simply audacious! "

The entire grand hall was filled with the furious cries of the empress. The emperor suddenly smiled and whispered something to the empress.

"She's still young and her actions are improper. You can discipline her, but she has the tolerance of a queen."

Although it was only a whisper, the silence in the room was clearly heard.

Su Xia Yue understood the emperor's words. His words were to make the empress forgive her, and at the same time, she was telling her to correct her mistakes.

When the empress heard the emperor's words, she grew fearful.

Only, when she thought about how Yi Chen had come to report that he had been humiliated by Ling Wang and his wife, she hardened her heart and wanted this Su Xia Yue to be the entire one. Thus, the Queen tried to defend herself in grief.

"Your Majesty, your concubine heard that Su Xia Yue's character is actually not that great, that the Seventh Prince who was betrothed to her is dead, and that she did not abide by the rules of a woman's family, but made a marriage agreement with our Ling Wang. Your concubine truly has no way of living. If you remove me from the position of Empress, you will have to listen to very little of my gossip. "
