Duan Yunfei and Duan Liusu remained deadlocked. Duan Yunfei wanted to leave, but Duan Liusu and Duan Yingluo refused to let him and Xiao Yang leave no matter what.

These words were extremely laughable. It was obvious that Duan Liusu was the one who started the battle, but now everyone saw it as Duan Yunfei doing the wrong thing.

Other than the four present at the scene, no one else knew the truth.

Although Xiao Yang kept trying to explain that it wasn't Duan Yunfei's fault, in the eyes of others, it was merely protecting her master, so Xiao Yang's words did not have any credibility.

If Duan Yunfei really wanted to explain, there would naturally be people who were willing to believe in her. Earlier, there were people who spoke up for Duan Yunfei, but she was not at the stage where she could not argue with anyone, she was just someone who Duan Yunfei disdained to argue with.

"Thirteenth Sister, if you apologize to Liusu, Liusu will not blame you for what happened between you and her. I'll assume that you were careless …" Duan Yingluo was still pretending to be a good person and pretending to have deep feelings for a sister.

Duan Yunfei did not take Duan Yingluo's words seriously. She was thinking about why Duan Yingluo would not let him go after this storm passed.

had always known that amongst these princes and princesses, other than the Tenth Prince Duan Changge, who did not like to argue, the rest of them all viewed him with hatred.

It was said that people who had the same enemy would be able to become so-called friends. In Duan Yunfei's opinion, this was the case for Duan Yingluo and her faction.

However, all these years, among the things that Duan Liusu had done to Duan Yunfei, how many of them had been ordered by him, Duan Yunfei had never found out, but now it seemed that this matter had to be investigated.

"The empress has arrived."

Hearing that the Queen had arrived, everyone kneeled down to greet her, Duan Yunfei was no exception.

"Alright, get up. Everyone else, leave."

Since it was the orders of the empress, everyone had no choice but to leave even if they wanted to watch the show. They only wanted to see whether the victor in this' battle 'was the favored Thirteenth Princess or the Princess Eleven who currently seemed to be the victim.

"Muhou, why have you come?"

In fact, Duan Yingluo knew very well that the person who had gone to divulge this information to the Empress was the person that Duan Yingluo had secretly sent out. The purpose was to prevent Yuwen Di from protecting Duan Yunfei and allowing him to escape the punishment.

"This matter has become so serious, it would be hard for me to not know." The Queen knew that Duan Yingluo could not be that bad guy, so from the meaning behind Duan Yingluo's words, she pretended to know that it was not Duan Yingluo's doing.

The Queen looked at Duan Yunfei. She thought that Duan Yunfei would probably panic now, but she actually stood there confidently, as if this matter had nothing to do with her at all.

"Yun Fei, I heard that you slapped Liusu. Did the rumors go wrong for me, or did you really do it?"

The Queen's words seemed to be a question, but it revealed that she had long believed that Duan Yunfei had done it, and her tone made Duan Yunfei not like her.

"I hit him." The empress had not wrongly accused Duan Yunfei.

Giving such a concise account of her actions was indeed Duan Yunfei's style. If it was anyone else, the empress might admire her, but because she was Duan Yunfei, the empress would only use this as a chance to sharpen Duan Yunfei's limelight.

The arrogance Duan Yunfei had in the palace was simply too great. This was not a good thing for the empress, although Duan Yunfei did not affect her position in the palace.

"Since Thirteenth Princess admits that this matter was handled by you, then follow me back to pepper house. In order to prevent Thirteenth Princess from thinking that it's my fault, when we return to pepper house, we will thoroughly investigate this matter."

The empress did not want to interrogate Duan Yunfei in this cold weather, so she handed this matter over to the empress to settle it. Regardless of whether or not Duan Yunfei acknowledged her at the end, it would still be Duan Yunfei's fault in the end.

"I thank the empress for standing up for Liusu."

Duan Liusu was secretly delighted in her heart. Fortunately the Empress had rushed over in time, otherwise, Duan Yunfei would have been able to escape.

The last time he drugged a green plum wine, Duan Yunfei was lucky enough to escape. Duan Liusu had always been thinking about how to trap Duan Yunfei, but he never thought that Duan Yunfei would actually deliver himself to his doorstep today.

Ever since the incident with the pepper house, it was not that Duan Liusu did not have the chance to deal with him, it was just that the Imperial Consort Yun had requested for Duan Liusu to endure it and did not want to start a conflict with him.

But Duan Yunfei and Mu Chuyang had already been engaged for more than a month, and Yuwen Di did not have any intentions of negotiating over's marriage with Mu Chuyang, so Duan Liusu did not wait any longer.

As for Imperial Consort Yun, the one who was attacking left and right was Duan Yunfei, no matter how much Imperial Consort Yun endured, she knew that she had been slapped by Duan Yunfei, and couldn't be blamed on herself.

"Esteemed Empress, Yun Fei doesn't want to excuse himself. It's just that Yun Fei has matters to discuss with royal father right now. Can I ask esteemed empress to wait a moment? Yun Fei will naturally go to the pepper house to plead guilty."

If he wanted to commit a crime, why would he suffer from it? Duan Yunfei did not believe that the empress had only come to seek justice because she had heard the news. Someone must have leaked the news to make the empress punish him. However, Duan Yunfei could not be at ease with Xiao Gui Zi's words. If the Empress really wanted to punish him, Duan Yunfei would do so, but right now, the most important thing was to find Yuwen Di.

Upon hearing Duan Yunfei's words, the Queen laughed, thinking that the urgent matter that Duan Yunfei had said was, she hoped that Yuwen Di could uphold justice for her.

"Thirteenth Princess, I'm afraid His Majesty doesn't have the time to see you right now. I did not come here to meddle in other people's business. This is His Majesty's intention. "

"Father, you mean?" Duan Yunfei was stunned. According to what Xiao Gui said, Yuwen Di should be discussing about the war with the assistant minister of the army right now, how did he find out about the conflict between him and Duan Liusu so quickly?

"Yunfei, my mother cannot use royal father's decree to deceive you, after all. That is deceiving the king."

Duan Yingluo could hear the disbelief in Duan Yunfei's tone, and she once again emphasized in front of the empress that this was Yuwen Di's intention.

"Thirteenth Sister, you can't possibly think that after doing something wrong and hoping that Royal Father would turn a blind eye to it because he dotes on you, right?"

"Yun Fei, this is indeed His Majesty's order. Eunuch Li has personally come to the pepper house to pass on the sacred will.

Duan Yunfei finally believed it when the Empress brought out the Eunuch Li.
