"What time is it?" Hearing this, Yu Yunxi raised her eyes and asked such a question.

They are all dying, yet they still ask what time it is.

The housekeeper showed a sneer, and responded casually: "Chen Shi."

"That's good." Yu Yunxi stood up with an extremely calm expression.

Following the housekeeper to the hall, she saw Aunt Qing being pressed to the ground from a distance, with whip marks all over her body and mottled with blood.

This appearance...exactly like the day she was forced to get married.

Thinking about it this way, it's a bit ironic.

Sensing the eyes, Aunt Qing raised her head with difficulty, staring at her with eyes full of hatred.

Yu Yunxi withdrew her gaze calmly, then saluted Dowager Ning respectfully.

"Yun Xi met Concubine Mother."

"Kneel down!" A teacup hit the ground heavily, and the tea splashed, wetting her skirt and shoes.

The concubine was so angry that none of the servants dared to breathe.

Grandma Liu stood beside her, gloating in her eyes.

"Yun Xi doesn't know how I have offended Concubine Mother, so please tell Concubine Mother." Yu Yunxi straightened her back, she slowly raised her head, and looked calmly at Concubine Ning.

"Princess, you ordered your people to burn the ancestral hall of the palace. This is the first crime. The servant reminded you to confess to the concubine. It's fine if you don't accept it. You also beat the servant. This is the second crime."

Before Concubine Ning could speak, Nanny Liu jumped out and accused Yu Yunxi loudly.

Hearing this, Yu Yunxi laughed instead.

"My concubine is the master, and you are a slave. You have provoked this concubine again and again. You are not wronged by this slap. I believe that the mother concubine would not like to see a slave riding on the master."

Yu Yunxi glanced at Concubine Ning with a gloomy face, and continued to say calmly: "Also, as for the matter of burning the ancestral hall you mentioned, Madam Liu, why would you want to commit a crime? This princess did not do anything." How can you admit it?"

"Aunt Qing has already recruited, the evidence is solid, you still want to deny it!" Nanny Liu scolded loudly.

If others heard this, they would definitely panic, but Yu Yunxi's expression was normal.

She turned her head and looked at Aunt Qing pretending to be suspicious: "Aunt Qing, Nanny Liu said you recruited, what did you recruit?"

Although Aunt Qing hates Yun Xi to death now, her mind is still clear.

She kowtowed heavily, and said loudly: "Reporting to the princess, the slaves don't know anything. The ancestral hall was burned, which has nothing to do with the slaves."

Hearing this, Yu Yunxi's eyes flickered slightly, and the worries in her heart were completely put down.

Sure enough, as she expected, Aunt Qing didn't confess at all.

They are grasshoppers on the same rope, if she tricks, everyone will die.

Nanny Liu was just cheating on her.

That's why she was betting just now that although her aunt hated her, she was not stupid.

Fortunately, she bet right.

"You maidservant, you're still being stubborn!" Seeing that the routine didn't work out, Mammy Liu became furious and wanted to hit Aunt Qing.

"Liu Nanny, the mother concubine is still here, and she hasn't made a statement yet, how can you be arrogant?" Yu Yunxi raised her hand, clasped Liu Nanny's wrist, and scolded in a cold voice.

"enough!"

Concubine Ning slapped the table hard, her face was covered with dark clouds, and her disgusted eyes swept over Yun Xi.

"You have only been in the gate for three days, and you have turned the palace into a mess! The Ai family asked you, did you do anything about the ancestral hall?"

"No!" Yu Yunxi replied firmly.

"You still dare to lie to the Ai family, someone has already seen your maidservant go to the ancestral hall." Concubine Ning slapped the table again, her eyes seemed to kill Yu Yunxi.

Yu Yunxi didn't panic, she sighed, "Mother, concubine, I admit that I did let Aunt Qing go to the ancestral hall. But it wasn't for burning the ancestral hall. I feel sorry for the prince, so I want Aunt Qing to replace me for the ancestors. Zong burns incense to bless the prince."

"You're making excuses!" Nanny Liu became anxious again.

"Could it be that Madam Liu saw Aunt Qing light the fire with her own eyes?" Yu Yunxi turned her head, her sharp eyes fell on Madam Liu, her aura was strong.

"Slave, I, I..." Madam Liu stopped for a while.

"Yun Xi implores mother and concubine to be clear. I married into the Prince Regent's Palace from the Yu family, and I am already a Prince's man. I hope that the Palace will be better before it's too late. How could I do something that is not good for the Palace?"

At the end of Yu Yunxi's speech, her glasses were reddish and her voice choked up.

Isn't it just acting? She can do it too!

Concubine Ning stared at Yu Yunxi with a cold face, her expression was clearly that she didn't believe her words.

"Come here, punish Ai's family. Today, Ai's family really wants to find out why."

Hearing this, Yu Yunxi's eyes darkened slightly.

really……

A woman like Concubine Ning who came out of the deep palace has extremely high means and a very cruel heart, and she will never let her go easily.

After receiving the order, Nanny Liu smiled coldly. She rolled up her sleeves and walked over quickly.

She will torture this bitch to death today.

Just when Madam Liu was about to clamp Yu Yunxi with her hands, the servant at the door rushed to report.

"Twife, the people from the prime minister's residence are here."

These words made Grandma Liu froze.

And the corner of Yu Yunxi's mouth raised a slight arc.

She just asked the housekeeper the time, because she wanted to confirm the time when Yu's home came.

Today is the third day after getting married, so it stands to reason that she should go back home.

But Feng Yili's situation is special, so Concubine Ning sent someone to send a letter to Yu's family the night before, asking Yu's family to come to the palace in person.

Although her good father's status is not as high as that of the royal family, he is still the prime minister. This face... the concubine should give it some.

But Yu Yunxi's smile didn't last long, because she heard the boy add another sentence.

"There is also His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Prince? What is he here for? A bit of disgust flashed in Yu Yunxi's eyes.

"The prince is here too?" Concubine Ning quickly stood up with a slightly serious expression.

After being silent for a while, she glanced at Yu Yunxi and Aunt Qing coldly, and then said, "Come here, send this lowly servant girl to the doctor's office. The princess and Ai's family will welcome you."

Is this a matter of not pursuing the ancestral hall for the time being?

Yu Yunxi lowered her eyes, this was within her expectation, the only variable was the sudden visit from the prince.

After a while, several figures appeared at the door.

"I have seen the empress dowager." Yu Zhongcheng saluted Dowager Ning skillfully.

"My daughter, Yu Wanrong, has met the empress dowager." The woman in pink clothes, with skin as white as cream, also spoke softly.

She is Yu Wanrong, the daughter of Yu Mansion's concubine.

Concubine Ning responded with a half smile, and then her eyes fell on the prince.

The prince, Feng Weizhou, has sword eyebrows and phoenix eyes, and wears a white robe with cloud patterns embroidered on the cuffs, with a cool and elegant demeanor.

"The prince came here today, why?" She asked tentatively.
