"Just you wait!" That person couldn't even win against Xia Sizhu, so he could only speak harshly.

"Someone, bring the old Prime Minister to wash up!" The man said to the eunuch at the side.

The two eunuchs who were called had bitter looks on their faces. One of them pinched his nose with one hand while the other dragged the old prime minister out to clean up.

"You were full of energy just now. I thought you were going to wash it for the old prime minister, but in the end you let someone else wash it."

Xia Sizhu looked at that person with disdain. That person's face was completely red from what Xia Sizhu had said.

After the old prime minister left, everyone sat back down.

"I'm hosting this banquet today. Just to give a welcoming reception to Esteemed wangfei, I have one more thing to announce."

The Emperor of Xi Ling swept his eyes over the crowd and saw that no one had any reaction as he continued speaking.

"Esteemed wangfei will be my daughter from now on. I want to give her the title of a princess. Would Zhu'er be willing to do so?"

After Emperor Xi Ling finished speaking, he looked towards Xia Sizhu with a hint of expectation in his eyes, his eyes filled with love.

"I don't want to." Xia Sizhu indifferently replied.

"Regardless of whether you are willing or not, you are still my daughter. From now on, if any of you dare to bully her, don't blame me for being heartless."

Emperor Xi Ling's voice was filled with authority as his cold eyes swept across everyone. He was warning everyone that Xia Sizhu was his chosen daughter, no one was to touch her!

Everyone was startled and their expressions changed when they looked at Xia Sizhu. With the Emperor protecting Xia Sizhu like this, it seemed that they had to carefully consider this matter.

As for the official who had previously choked Xia Sizhu, his face was somewhat pale. However, at the thought of the old prime minister, that person's head once again jerked upwards. With the old prime minister's support, what did he have to fear!

"Your Majesty, you can't just randomly recognize her as your daughter just because she looks like little sister Jade. Wouldn't it be luring a wolf into the house if she had a purpose?"

Emperor Xi Ling did not give the Emperor Xi Ling the slightest face as she coldly spoke.

"Is the empress doubting Zhen's decision?" Emperor Xi Ling's expression darkened.

"I'm not suspecting anything. I'm just warning the Emperor not to make things too difficult."

Queen Xi Ling did not give the Emperor Xi Ling any face as she coldly spoke.

"Empress, don't cause too much trouble." The emperor's gaze suddenly became cold as he spoke with a grave and stern expression.

"Even the Emperor isn't free to help others raise their own seed. Chenqie's not comparable to the emperor's at this point."

The Queen sneered and spoke without holding back. She was not afraid of Emperor Xi Ling at all.

"Your Majesty, you dare to say that it wasn't because she had a face similar to Sister Yu's that you took her as your daughter."

Empress Xi Ling pointed at Xia Sizhu, her angry voice carrying a trace of hatred.

"Esteemed Empress, why are you targeting me like this?" Is it because I feel that I'm plotting something, or because I'm feeling guilty! "

Xia Sizhu cast her gaze towards the empress. Her ice-cold gaze made the empress feel that the Xia Sizhu before her was the jade spirit of the past.

Everyone was startled when they heard Xia Sizhu's words. It was clear that everyone knew about the conflict between the empress and Yu Fei.

"Don't slander me!" There was a moment of panic before the empress's face returned to normal.

"Whether it's slandering the empress or not, the empress knows." Xia Sizhu had seen the empress's panic.

"Sooner or later, I will reveal your true colors." Queen Xi Ling said with a cold tone.

"I'm just afraid that what the empress dug out was not what you were expecting." A cold light flashed in Dongfang Ye's ordinary eyes.

"You're that onion again. Oh, I remember now. You're her new pet."

Empress Xi Ling first cursed loudly, and then pretended to have come to a realization.

You're just a new pet and yet you dare to criticize me? Do you believe that I can pinch you to death? Look at how ordinary she looks. She really has poor judgement!" "They are all young mistresses, yet they are raising new pets outside and don't follow the rules of a woman!

Empress Xi Ling lightly raised her gaze and cast a cold and contemptuous gaze at Xia Sizhu.

"Since you've already said that, I'll come out and say two things.

The first point is that Dongfang Ye betrayed me first, why should I protect his wife? Why can't men have three wives and four concubines, while daughters can't have three husbands and four servants?

"The second point is to find a honest man, looks aren't important, the better it looks the more people will think about it. Finally, I'll summarize it, you don't need to worry about me!"

Xia Si Zhu looked at the Queen and spoke lazily.

Everyone was frightened by Xia Si Zhu's shocking idea. Just as they were about to reprimand him, they heard the emperor's slightly agitated voice. "Good job!"

The words in his mouth were immediately swallowed back. The emperor had already said so, how could they retort? They weren't like the empress and Esteemed wangfei, one had a backer, the other was favored by the emperor.

"You are shaming the imperial family by doing this, aren't you afraid that the emperor will execute you?"

The empress sneered, which imperial family would want such a wife?

"Esteemed empress, you're wrong again. As my father, he won't have any objections against me. If they knew, they'd definitely pick out a man for me with such fanfare."

They doted on me more than on Dongfang Ye, and I've already had Dongfang Ye, so I have nothing to do with him anymore. "

As Xia Sizhu spoke, she could feel an ice-cold gaze from the side and directly ignored it.

Dongfang Ye gritted his teeth, but he couldn't act up on the spot.

"Hehe, you're really arrogant. Why would the Emperor of the Southern Tomb be so unrestrained towards you!"

Queen Xi Ling had a face of disbelief. No one would believe such a thing.

"It's up to you whether you want to believe it or not. Do you believe that if I say something, the South Tomb will send troops to attack the West Tomb?"

Xia Sizhu looked around at the people around her and spoke indifferently.

Everyone looked at Xia Sizhu with eyes full of disdain and disbelief. Only Xi Ling Yan's expression changed.

"Little beauty, stop messing around. My mother has no ill intentions." A hint of panic flashed across Xi Ling Yan's eyes.

"I'm not making a ruckus, I'm just telling them the truth. Take a good look at what this is!"

Xia Si Zhu slightly raised his gaze and took out something from his bosom. Everyone looked at it, their eyes instantly changing. Each and every one of them was filled with dread.

After Xia Sizhu took out the Tiger Tally, Dongfang Ye touched his chest without leaving a trace behind. He was stunned for a moment before the corner of his mouth raised into a smile.

It was unknown when Ah Zhu had actually taken away his Tiger Tally …

If Ah Zhu wanted to kill him, it would be very easy.

"Why are you holding these two Tiger Talismans?" The moment the Western Tomb Emperor saw the Tiger Tally, his expression changed.

There were two Tiger Talismans in the southern part of the Mausoleum of Books. One was in the hands of Dongfang Ye and the other was in the hands of the emperor. Who would have thought that these two were in the hands of Zhu Er?

"Father said that Dongfang Ye betrayed my concubine, so I took his Tiger Tally back. After that, I went to ask Father for it, and it went to my hands."

One was that she had sent Gu Xin to think of what the Emperor wanted. She had wanted to give it a try, but she hadn't agreed so readily.

The other was something she found in Dongfang Ye's arms when she was bored at night.

Do I still have the qualifications to say what I just said? " Xia Sizhu glanced at everyone and said.
