Ye Qiandai sneered, "Curious, how can a human being be heartless? If you treat your little daughter normally, how could she have the heart to harm her own father?

"I'm afraid the Prime Minister, his wife, and the Imperial Concubine have done something unforgivable to your little daughter?"

"You...you're talking nonsense!" Mu Zhengrong was the first to stand up and refute. She felt so guilty that she turned into anger and shame.

"You little girl are so rude. Everyone knows that I treat my little daughter like my own. It is that bitch who is ungrateful, disloyal and unfilial. We are just victims!"

"What do you mean by saying these words? Did that bitch Ye Shiqing say something to you?" Ye Yuqing asked suspiciously.

Ye Qiandai snorted coldly, and turned her cold eyes to her. The hostility in her pupils made people shudder, "I don't know Ye Shiqing, I'm just guessing.

"Sister, there is a God above us, and God is watching everything we do. If someone does something evil that is intolerable to heaven, I believe she will die a miserable death in the future, don't you think?"

Ye Yuqing took two steps back, his face turning pale and blue, his eyes looked extremely guilty, he looked back and forth not daring to look her in the face.

"What on earth is this woman saying to deceive the people?" Ye Baijiang became impatient and growled with a red face.

Ye Feiyan was also really angry. She stood up and said angrily: "Ye Qiandai, I asked you to apologize to the Prime Minister. Who told you to say such indecent words? If you continue to..."

"The Emperor has arrived——"

Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by a long call from the eunuch outside the door.

Ye Qiandai curled her lips and took over her words, "The Queen Mother asked me to apologize to the Prime Minister, and I will do it."

After saying this, she faced Ye Baijiang and his wife, knelt down with a plop, and nodded her head with lowered eyebrows, looking very humble.

"You..." Ye Baijiang was startled, looked at the door vigilantly, and said with gritted teeth, "Who told you to kneel down? Get up quickly!"

Damn it, this bitch didn't kneel earlier or later, but had to wait until the emperor came to kneel. Is she deliberately making trouble?

Ye Qiandai lowered her head, like a bullied little white rabbit, "If you don't kneel down to apologize, how can you be sincere?"

"you……"

"What are you doing?"

Ye Baijiang wanted to say something, but Lu Shian's cold voice came over.

"Your Majesty~" Ye Yuqing reacted quickly enough. He immediately went over and explained the scene in front of him with exaggeration.

Lu Shian turned a deaf ear to her, walked past her to Ye Qiandai, stretched out his hand to pull her up from the ground, then looked at Ye Feiyan with a look of displeasure on his face.

"Concubine Qing came to pay respects to the Queen Mother, but why did she kneel before Ye Baijiang? Concubines kneel before common people, is this a new rule set by the Queen Mother?"

"Your Majesty." Ye Baijiang and his wife knelt on the ground and explained to him in fear and trepidation, "It was Concubine Qing who spoke rudely and slandered me, and the Queen Mother couldn't stand it, so she taught her a lesson.

"Moreover, the Queen Mother only asked her to apologize, but did not ask Concubine Qing to kneel down before me!"

"Really?" Lu Shian shot him a sharp look and asked coldly, "Then I would like to hear how my concubine slandered you?"

"She..." Ye Baijiang's old face turned red, and he looked at Ye Feiyan for help cowardly.

Ye Feiyan was obviously dissatisfied with Lu Shian's accusation, and replied with a cold face: "She was rude to Qing'er, saying that she was the daughter of a criminal and that your uncle was a criminal."

"Isn't it?" Lu Shian asked back, "Ye Baijiang is a first-rank prime minister, but he hid the city defense map in his mansion and intended to rebel.

"It is known to everyone that I dismissed him from his post and confiscated his property. How did Concubine Qing slander him?"

"Your Majesty! I have told you before, your uncle could not have the intention of treason. He was framed!" Ye Feiyan widened her eyes and emphasized every word.

"Where's the evidence?" Lu Shian looked at her expressionlessly. "Until the Queen Mother produces evidence that Ye Baijiang is innocent, his guilt is beyond doubt."

"You!" Ye Feiyan was speechless and simply changed the subject, "Even if he is not the prime minister now, he is still my brother after all.

"Ye Qiandai is a little concubine who just entered the palace. What qualifications do you have to say anything about an elder?"

"I don't care about elders or not, she is my woman, and my woman is like me. There is nothing in this world that she cannot say!"

"How ridiculous! She is just a concubine, how can she represent the emperor?" Ye Feiyan raised her voice, her face turning pale with anger.

Lu Shian stared at her, and suddenly smiled coldly, saying faintly: "Really? Then what position can represent me? The position of the queen? Does mother mean that I should raise the position of Concubine Qing?"

"You dare!" Ye Feiyan suddenly stood up from her seat, shocked and angry.

The emperor is really crazy. Ye Qiandai has only been in the palace for one day, and he wants to promote her. What will happen if this continues for a long time?

Ye Yuqing was also panicked when she heard this, and hurried forward to explain: "Your Majesty, my aunt didn't mean that. The position of concubine... the position of concubine is already very high, enough to match Ye Qiandai."

Lu Shian glanced at her and said pointedly, "But her position is too low. There are always people with higher positions looking for trouble with her. What should she do?"

Ye Yuqing was stunned and shook her head weakly: "No."

Lu Shian ignored her and looked at Ye Feiyan and said, "In my opinion, for the sake of peace in the harem, I will promote Concubine Qing to Imperial Noble Concubine, making her equal to Ye Yuqing. What do you think, mother?"

"Ridiculous!" Ye Feiyan rejected it outright and angrily retorted, "Since ancient times, the Imperial Noble Consort has the same position as the Vice Consort, and only one can be elected. We have already appointed Qing'er as the Imperial Noble Consort, so how can we appoint another one?"

Ye Baijiang was shocked and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, you can't do this. There can only be one Imperial Concubine. It's against the rules for you to do this!"

"That's true." Lu Shian nodded thoughtfully and turned his gaze to Ye Yuqing.

"What they said makes sense. There is only one Imperial Consort, so Yu Qing can only abdicate and become a concubine."

Ye Yuqing's head buzzed and she opened her eyes wide with disbelief on her face.

What? She was to be demoted to a concubine? She was to let that vixen Ye Qiandai sit on her throne as the Imperial Noble Consort?

This...she must have heard it wrong.

"Your Majesty!" Ye Baijiang and Mu Zhengrong were extremely shocked. They both knelt on the ground and begged.

"No, since ancient times, only concubines who made mistakes would be demoted. My daughter has been in the palace for a long time and has not made any mistakes. How can the emperor demote her?"

Ye Yuqing was so angry that she cried. She refused with sobs and a sad voice, "Your Majesty, I refuse to accept it."

"Your Majesty, no, this is against the rules." Ye Qiandai tried to stop him, but when she glanced at Ye Yuqing who looked like the sky was falling, she felt extremely happy in her heart.

Lu Shian ignored them and said in a sonorous voice: "I am the emperor, I am the rule!"

Ye Feiyan's eyes were red, and she looked at him with the intention of biting her teeth to pieces. "Your Majesty, are you going to piss off your mother to death just for a concubine who just entered the palace?"

Since when did her always obedient son disappear? Since when did her precious son, whom she was so proud of, never smile at her again?
