So, Jiang Xue, Fu Dong, Xiaochun and the other two stood in the center of the hall like suspects being interrogated, being stared down by the four adults sitting on the thrones.

"Changle, do you know what mistake you made?" The queen stared at Jiang Xue for a while, slowly stood up from her throne, walked down the steps step by step, and stopped in front of Jiang Xue.

She held her head high, looked down at Jiang Xue from above, and began to question her: "I know you just got married yesterday, and you must be very sweet during your honeymoon, but this doesn't mean you can ignore the rules.

It’s true that you are a princess of Qian Kingdom, but now that you are married to the prince of Beiling, you are a member of Beiling and must abide by the rules of Beiling.

Normally, you should come to pay your respects to me at 7:00 pm on the second day of your wedding, but you waited until 9:00 pm to show up. This is extremely disrespectful to me. Shouldn't you admit your mistake for this?"

The Queen's words made Xiaochun and Fudong furious. Their princess had gotten up at Mao time today and arrived at Fengming Palace at Chen time. The Queen deliberately made trouble for them and made the princess stand outside the palace in the cold wind for an hour before letting them in.

Now they are turning around and accusing their princess of deliberately delaying. This is simply going too far.

"Empress, we arrived at Fengming Palace at noon. The palace maid said you were resting, so we waited outside the palace for an hour." Fu Dong explained hurriedly.

The queen glanced at her sideways, her eyes full of disdain, as if she was looking at an insignificant little insect.

"Yueta, is what she said true?"

Yue Tao is the Queen's confidant. She is clever and well-behaved, and is deeply loved by the Queen.

"My Lady, this is not the case. Princess Changle stood at the door as soon as she arrived and refused to come in to pay her respects. I tried to persuade her several times but she refused to listen."

Yue Tao's words made Xiaochun completely furious.

"You are talking nonsense. It was you who told us that the Queen was resting."

Xiaochun pointed at Yuetao and scolded her emotionally.

"How dare you, a slave girl, to frame my people in front of me! Someone, teach her a lesson."

The queen had a gloomy expression on her face. She pointed at Xiaochun and gave cold orders.

"As you command, Madam." Yue Tao accepted the order and walked forward with a sinister smile on her face: "Miss Xiaochun, don't blame me for being ruthless."

Immediately afterwards, a loud slap sounded.

"Princess!" Xiaochun never expected that Jiang Xue would pull her behind him, but she was slapped hard in the face!

Looking at the bright red handprint on Jiang Xue's face, Xiaochun felt sad and angry, with mixed emotions.

Over there, Concubine De and Xiao Min, mother and daughter, were so happy watching Jiang Xue being beaten that it was like Chinese New Year! They were so proud and their successful looks made people frown.

This ignorant little girl should have suffered a lot. Yue Tao was too gentle. If she could clamp a razor blade between her fingers and scratch that charming face, she would be relieved!

Jun Li's hands were tightly grasping the handrail, his legs were almost stretched straight, and he was about to stand up to plead for Jiang Xue.

But when he saw the queen's cold eyes, he had to swallow his words and dared not say more.

It's okay, it's just a slap, nothing. He comforted himself in his heart, Xiaoxue is a strong woman, this little grievance is nothing.

He repeated this to himself, as if this could alleviate the worry in his heart and the guilt for not being able to help.

"Oh, Princess Changle, you are so naughty. Why did you come up to me?" Yue Tao shook her hands and looked at Jiang Xue with a smug look on her face. She didn't feel guilty at all for hitting her.

Jiang Xue slowly raised her head and looked at her calmly. Yue Tao felt uncomfortable under her deep gaze and subconsciously took two steps back.

I don’t know why, but Princess Changle’s eyes always give people a weird feeling, which makes her feel creepy.

"You..." Yue Tao felt uncomfortable when Jiang Xue looked at her. She was a popular figure around the Queen, and even the Fifth Princess had to be respectful to her. How could this barbaric princess dare to glare at her like that?

She was about to attack again, but before she could raise her hand, a figure rushed in like lightning and slapped her hard in the face, making stars appear before her eyes.

"It's really worrying. I've only been away for a while, and a little girl dared to bully the princess." Xiao Zhan hugged Jiang Xue into his arms, looked at the obvious red marks on her face, and asked distressedly, "Are you okay?"

Jiang Xue smiled slightly and shook her head gently, "It's okay."

"Prince Gong, you are still so unruly after getting married? You can't even bow to me when you see me?" The Queen raised her eyebrows and looked at Xiao Zhan with disgust.

This evil creature actually dared to beat her people in her territory and in front of her.

As soon as Xiao Zhan entered the palace, he bowed deeply to the Queen, "Hello, Queen."

Then, he raised his eyebrows, looked straight at the queen, and asked, "I heard that our princess committed a serious crime. Why did the queen let the maid touch her?"

The Queen snorted and said angrily, "In this case, I was originally going to teach that ignorant maid a lesson, but Princess Changle rushed out to block the slap for her. Really, you are so protective of your own people right after getting married. Xiao Zhan, how much do you care about Jiang Xue!"

Xiao Zhan raised his eyebrows again when he heard this. "Oh, is that so? But the version I heard is a little different. The princess came to pay her respects to you, but was left outside the palace in the cold wind for an hour.

I guess the maid felt sorry for her master and said a few more words. Your Majesty, please be magnanimous and don't take it to heart. Right, Madam Mo Yan?"

At this time, Nanny Mo Yan slowly walked into the palace. After hearing what Xiao Zhan said, she straightened her back and looked up at the Queen's throne. "Your Highness Prince Gong is right."

When the queen saw Nanny Mo Yan coming, her face changed immediately and she stood up quickly. Back then, when she was still Xiao Yan's princess, Nanny Mo Yan's status in the palace was like a god.

Twenty years ago, when she had just become queen, all the etiquette and rules were taught to her personally by Nanny Mo Yan, so she truly respected Nanny Mo Yan.

"Madam Mo Yan, why are you here?" the queen asked with a forced smile.

"The Queen Mother felt sorry for Princess Gong's frail health, so she asked me to bring her a cloak. I thought the princess would enter the palace at 11:00 a.m. and leave after paying respects at 11:00 p.m., but I didn't expect her to enter the palace now. On the way, I heard that the princess had been blowing in the cold wind in front of Fengming Palace for an hour.

I'm very puzzled, Queen, you need to give me an explanation for this matter, right?" Although Nanny Mo Yan's tone was calm, the weight of her words was not light.
