Alluring His Wife: The Evil King's Fifth Consort Chapter 405

"To be honest, I'm not too sure either, but I've had a special preference since I was young. The more people I can't subdue, the more I'll have to subdue them, no matter how much I pay!" Zhong Lixian leaned on the cushion, and said with an imposing manner, as if she was looking down at the world.

Just as Wei Yuanwei was about to say something, a sharp voice suddenly came out from outside the door. "Esteemed Empress has arrived …"

Following which, the tightly shut door was opened by two eunuchs holding onto the dust of Buddha. Wei Yuanwei stood by the door, and watched as a beautiful and extremely well-maintained woman walked in gracefully under the escort of the crowd.

Although it did not look as grand as the black dress, it was still exceptionally gorgeous. On the crown of the phoenix was the crown of three phoenixes of six dragons, made from golden silk, the phoenix was made from kingfisher feathers, the dragon's mouth had many pearls and gems hanging from it, and among the dragon and phoenix, there were also some emerald blue flowers and leaves.

At the bottom of the phoenix crown, there were two rows of small circles surrounded by pearls centered on the ruby. Behind the phoenix crown hung six leaf-shaped ornaments, covered with pearls and gems, which looked like they could dazzle a person's eyes.

Similarly, a pair of narrow and long phoenix eyes narrowed slightly. The dignified, refined, and unfazed expression that exuded from every gesture made made made made people know who the person was with a single glance.

Little Yun Zi hurriedly walked to the door to welcome him. She knelt down respectfully and said, "This servant greets the empress …"

Afterwards, Little Yun Zi immediately used her gaze to signal Wei Yuanwei who was standing beside her.

Yet Wei Yuanwei still stood there, with no intention of bowing.

"How bold, where did this palace maid come from? You're still not bowing when you see the empress? " A high-pitched voice that sounded like a woman's immediately shouted.

Although Wei Yuanwei hated this voice, she was still prepared to kneel down and pay her respects. However, at this time, two eunuchs had already walked forward, wanting to directly push Wei Yuanwei down on the ground and kowtow to the empress.

But before the two eunuchs could even touch Wei Yuanwei's body, Wei Yuanwei had already sent a kick towards them.

Little Yun Zi wanted to go and stop him, but it was already too late. Looking at Wei Yuanwei's ugly expression, she broke out in cold sweat.

"How could there be such a wild and unruly palace maid in the palace?" As soon as the Empress's dignified words came out, a few more eunuchs stepped forward, wanting to drag Wei Yuanwei out.

"Imperial Mother, she is not a servant of the crown prince's palace. I hope that Imperial Mother can spare her for the sake of this son!" Zhong Lixian's respectful voice came out from the palace.

The Queen glanced at Wei Yuanwei with a serious and dignified expression. Just looking at his would cause people to be afraid.

Judging from Zhong Lixian's respectful and cautious att.i.tude, the Queen of Xiling must be a fierce character.

"Since it's Yin`er begging for mercy, you all can leave now!" The empress's armoured hands caressed her sleeves embroidered with gold thread as she spoke indifferently.

The eunuchs and palace maids who had rushed up to capture Wei Yuanwei immediately retreated to the back.

"I just returned from the Temple of Buddha and heard from your father that your leg disease has been treated!" The Queen walked to Zhong Lixian's bedside and spoke with an arrogant tone.

"After you return to your mother, your son is currently in a recuperative state. Thank you for your concern, mother. Are you used to staying at Buddha's Edge Temple? Your son has always been busy with official matters, and has no time to visit your mother. Please punish him! " Even though Zhong Lixian was leaning on the soft cushion, her att.i.tude towards the empress was extremely respectful and cautious. Even though she couldn't get off the bed, her back was straight.

The empress only glanced at Zhong Lixian who was on the bed, walked to the mahogany chair and sat down, where she immediately had a palace maid serve him some tea: "Visiting me is a small matter, governing Xiling is more important, the most important thing is to marry the crown prince consort as soon as possible and help the royal family spread their branches and leaves!"

Zhong Lixian's expression was as usual, "Imperial Mother, this son is extremely busy with political affairs. Currently, I hope that Imperial Mother will not mention the matter of the princess consort by royal father's side!"

The empress raised her delicate hand to stroke the phoenix crown on her head, her face still cold. "You kept saying you didn't want to marry the crown prince again and again, but your father has decided on that. You're not going to do well, aren't you?"

"This son doesn't dare!" Zhong Lixian immediately said.

"Did you bring that girl back to the palace just now?"

Zhong Lixian hesitated: "Yes!"

If you want to stay in the palace, I will not object. Later on, you can get someone to send her to my place, and I will have to properly teach her the rules of the palace. When that time comes, I will naturally send someone back to you! After the Queen finished speaking, she stood up lazily, not caring at all whether Zhong Lixian agreed or not.

"Muhou …" Zhong Lixian immediately called out to the Queen who was about to leave: "She is the doctor who cured my legs. She was born poor, and did not know the rules of the palace.

"Born into poverty?" The empress obviously did not believe Zhong Lixian's words, "A little girl with such ability being able to cure your leg disease, it is obvious that she is quite capable. When I entered the palace just now, she was calm and composed, clearly not like someone who entered the palace for the first time and does not understand the rules! I have seen countless people in my life, so how could I not know that her ident.i.ty is not so simple? "

"Your son, this son, this mother, please atone for his sins!" Zhong Lixian's face revealed a trace of nervousness.

The Empress continued to look at Zhong Lixian indifferently, "As the crown prince, you should be careful at all times, so as to not get distracted by some beautiful women and forget about your ident.i.ty as the crown prince. I shall first bring this woman back to properly train her … I'll definitely send it back to you after you've finished your tutelage! "

Wei Yuanwei listened attentively the entire time. From the att.i.tudes of Zhong Lixian and the Empress, Wei Yuanwei could tell that Zhong Lixian was extremely fearful of the Empress, who was obviously not Zhong Lixian's birth mother.

When the Queen walked past Wei Yuanwei, she did not even raise her eyelids.

However, one of the eunuchs beside the Empress said to Wei Yuanwei, "Let's go …"

Wei Yuanwei turned around and glanced at Little Yun Zi, and then looked at Zhong Lixian who was frowning on the bed.

He calmly followed her.

If she didn't want to, then what would the consequences be? Even if Zhong Lixian wanted to protect her, she might not be able to.

"Crown Prince, this …?" After the empress and her group left, Little Yun Zi anxiously walked to the side of Zhong Lixian's bed.

Zhong Lixian's cold eyes were filled with chilliness, "I'm afraid that mother came all of a sudden today for Wei Yuanwei, how else would she be able to enter the crown prince's palace?

"Just now, Miss Wei offended the empress. This servant is afraid that the empress will …" Xiao Yun Zi followed beside Zhong Lixian. He had seen the Empress's methods before.
