Chapter 255 - 255 Consort Xian
255 Consort Xian
“Greetings, Princess Mingyue.” The eunuch bowed respectfully to Ning Yue.
When Concubine Shun heard the eunuchs address Ning Yue, she was immediately stunned. Wasn’t Princess Mingyue the princess conferred by the emperor? The future heiress of Prince Jin!
“Even the future heiress can’t treat me like this. Do you know that I am the emperor’s woman? If you treat me like this, it will be embarrassing for the emperor.”
Hearing Concubine Shun’s words, Ning Yue laughed out loud. “Why don’t you say that you embarrassed the Emperor of Russia? Do you know that your actions have already escalated into a conflict between the two countries? The Emperor of Russia is the legendary Bloodthirsty King. He will never allow you to do this.”
She was not a person who liked to fight, but she just did not like Concubine Shun. She had some hostility towards Concubine Shun. She herself could not explain why.
“What has my conflict with you got to do with Russia?” Concubine Shun didn’t understand. How could a very ordinary matter escalate to a conflict between the two countries?
“Do you know who I am? Do you think I’m just Princess Mingyue of the Great Yun Nation? Let me tell you, I’m also the biological princess of Russia. I’m the niece of the current emperor of Russia. Do you know that treating me like this just now is already a capital crime?” Ning Yue questioned Concubine Shun.
Concubine Shun was stunned. She did not expect Ning Yue to have such an identity. This exceeded her expectations.
She had just been asked by someone to make things difficult for this woman. When had this woman become the legitimate princess of Russia?
“Someone! Take Concubine Shun down! I want to ask the emperor why he allowed such a woman to stay in the harem. Doesn’t her family know how to teach her how to behave?”
Hearing Ning Yue’s words, Concubine Shun immediately panicked.
This was originally just a conflict between the two women, but it had escalated to a conflict between the two countries. Now, it had escalated to the point that her family was at fault. If she really pursued this, her nine generations…
What to do? What to do? This wasn’t supposed to happen.
In a moment of anxiety, she suddenly saw a ray of hope.
She cried out in joy. “Your Majesty!” she called out excitedly.
“Your majesty, please vouch for me. I didn’t know that this woman was the princess of Russia. It was Consort Xian who told me to come here.” Concubine Shun immediately knelt down in front of the empress.
The empress was stunned. Before she could understand what was going on, Ning Yue and Jiang Ying walked up to her.
“Empress, this is what happened…” Ning Yue did not plan to give Concubine Shun a chance to explain at all and directly told her what had just happened.
After hearing that, the empress roughly understood that Concubine Shun had been instructed by Consort Xian to make things difficult for Ning Yue.
Who was Consort Xian? She was from the Marquis of An’s family.
Back then, when something happened to Marquis An, Consort Xian relied on the emperor’s liking to escape.
She was very angry and wanted to find trouble with Ning Yue, but without the Marquis of An’s Residence, no matter how much the emperor doted on Consort Xian, she was still a woman in the harem. She could not extend her influence outside the palace.
As the matter of the Marquis of An’s Residence back then was related to Jiang Ying, Consort Xian vented her anger on him. However, because of Jiang Ying’s identity, Consort Xian did not dare to act rashly, so she could only let Concubine Shun attack Ning Yue.
Consort Xian had never seen Ning Yue before and did not know what she looked like. She only felt that making things difficult for the woman beside Jiang Ying meant giving Jiang Ying a blow.
She could only say that Concubine Shun was really unlucky. Ning Yue was not someone Consort Xian and Concubine Shun could afford to provoke. They were doomed.
The empress cleared her throat and asked Ning Yue if she had been hurt. Ning Yue shook her head.
“Thank you for your concern, Empress. However, as the princess of Russia, I can’t let this matter be settled leniently. My uncle is still with the emperor. I believe he will support me,” Ning Yue said to the Empress.
Forget it. It was impossible for the empress to be lenient.
If she did not show her attitude today, it would not look good if this matter reached the emperor.
However, Consort Xian was the emperor’s favorite concubine. If she really punished Consort Xian, how would she explain it?
“Empress, who is this Consort Xian?” Ning Yue asked.
The Empress thought for a moment and told her about the relationship between Consort Xian and the Marquis of An’s Residence.
