The seventh princess ordered someone to beat the prince-in-law fifty times. This matter quickly spread and everyone in the court knew about it, causing an uproar inside and outside the palace.

The Empress Dowager and Concubine Feng couldn't sit still at first, and they said with anger and anger: "Why is Chu Qinghuang so crazy? Can Jinzhi, a weak scholar, withstand a beating? It is simply unreasonable! The Ai family has lived like this. Damn, I’ve never seen someone lynching his own consort... It’s so unreasonable! How unethical is that?”

Concubine Feng's face was ugly and she couldn't hide her anxiety: "I heard that the beating was quite severe. I wonder if Jinzhi can bear it? The Queen Mother has to make the decision for Jinzhi."

The Queen Mother sat on the phoenix chair with a sullen face, her exquisite makeup could not hide the frost on her face: "Chu Qinghuang is really getting more and more unruly! In the past two years, relying on the emperor's favor, he has done all kinds of deviant things. What’s more, Concubine Duan doesn’t have any rules and can’t even control her own daughter. She is allowed to act recklessly outside the palace, which is a disgrace to the royal family!”

Concubine Feng pursed her lips and said nothing. She didn't want to pay attention to how unbridled Chu Qinghuang was at the moment. She just wanted to know how Jin Zhi was doing. Fifty-year-old... She couldn't even think about it. Damn Chu Qinghuang, he could really do this. hand!

If Jinzhi does anything good, she will make both Concubine Duan and her daughter pay the price!

"The Queen Mother, it's not good!" Manager Feng of Renshou Palace hurriedly entered and bowed to report, "The guards sent news that the Seventh Princess wants to divorce her husband."

What? !

The Queen Mother was shocked and said angrily with a livid face: "Chu Qinghuang is going to rebel!"

Concubine Feng's expression turned cold: "What on earth is Chu Qinghuang going to do?"

"Feng Ping, immediately announce that Chu Qinghuang has entered the palace and the Ai family wants to see her!"

"This slave obeys your order."

Feng Ping hurried out of the palace with the Queen Mother Yi Zhi and rushed to the Princess Protector's Mansion. He saw Chu Qinghuang coming out of the mansion. Feng Ping was stunned and hurriedly knelt down: "I see Her Royal Highness the Princess."

Several guards who followed behind him all knelt down.

No matter what the seventh princess's impression was in the eyes of the royal dignitaries and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, whether she was stupid or a nymphomaniac, her title of Princess Protector did not allow anyone to offend her, and she was treated as an equal even in front of the concubines in the harem.

What's more, Chu Qinghuang is a violent and murderous master.

If she is displeased, even if these slaves are killed on the spot, the Queen Mother will not be able to do anything to her.

Chu Qinghuang looked down at the chamberlain in the Queen Mother's Palace and asked in an indifferent voice, "What's the matter?"

"Report to Your Highness, Princess." Feng Ping replied respectfully, not daring to rely on the Queen Mother's influence to put on airs in front of the Seventh Princess, "The Queen Mother has ordered the small kitchen to prepare some snacks, so that you and Young Master Feng can go into the palace to have tea and snacks."

After hearing this, Chu Qinghuang spent the shortest time thinking about it in her mind. The Emperor of Xiqi was already in his forties. The queen in the harem was fighting fiercely with the concubines. There were four princes among the seven princesses because the emperor was a young emperor at that time. After he ascended the throne, he filled the harem with drafts early. After he came to power, most of the women who entered the palace first were promoted to concubines.

Therefore, the first to fifth-ranked princes are now eligible to compete for the throne.

The empress is currently in charge of the harem. The beautiful and frail Concubine Duan is the most favored because of her meritorious service in escorting her, while Feng Jinzhi's aunt Feng Guifei is the most favored by the Queen Mother.

So this can be considered a three-legged alliance?

She ordered Feng Jinzhi to be punished today, and she had ordered Fucang to spread the news. Naturally, the Queen Mother and Concubine Feng knew about it.

Concubine Feng was the first one to be unable to sit still, but Chu Qinghuang's temper was rare in the world. Concubine Feng did not dare to cause trouble without permission, so she could only ask the Queen Mother for help.

"Your Highness?" Feng Ping raised his head carefully, "Don't keep the Queen Mother waiting for too long."

Chu Qinghuang glanced at him and said calmly: "I can go by myself. The consort probably won't be able to get up at this time."

With that said, he walked directly to the sedan that had been prepared outside.

She had originally planned to enter the palace, so there was no harm in stopping by to see the Queen Mother.

Feng Ping felt uneasy when he heard her speak so calmly. He felt that Her Highness the Princess was different from before, but he couldn't tell what was different about it.

After sitting in the sedan chair, Chu Qinghuang leaned on the soft couch and closed her eyes in deep thought. Feng Ping and the guards followed behind the sedan chair tremblingly.

Not long after, the sedan arrived and landed outside the palace gate.

Chu Qinghuang got up and got out of the carriage, following Manager Feng to the Queen Mother's Renshou Palace.

The most indispensable thing in the palace is people, eunuchs, guards, maids coming and going on the palace road... When they saw Chu Qinghuang, they all fell to the ground in an instant, fearing that if they knelt a step too slowly, blood would be splashed on the spot.

Chu Qinghuang was indifferent.

Entering Renshou Palace, the Queen Mother was sitting in the main seat, and Concubine Feng was also there, sitting with her on the lower left side of the Queen Mother.

Seeing Chu Qinghuang's arrival, both of them had cold expressions and looked at each other calmly.

"Xiao Qi." The Queen Mother suppressed her displeasure and spoke majestically, "Where is Jinzhi? Why didn't you see him come with him?"

"He made some mistakes today and received the punishment he deserved in the palace." Chu Qinghuang sat down on the chair opposite Concubine Feng, took the tea from the palace attendant, lowered her eyes and took a sip, "Wait a minute. After the injury has recovered, let him enter the palace to pay his respects to the Queen Mother and the Imperial Concubine."

Concubine Feng's expression changed, and she was about to speak when she heard the Queen Mother say in surprise: "Made a mistake? This child Jinzhi has always been gentle and polite, and knows how to advance and retreat. How could he make a mistake? Is there some misunderstanding?"

Didn't Chu Qinghuang like Feng Jinzhi the most before? Even if Jinzhi did something she shouldn't have done, she would turn a blind eye and tolerate it. How could it happen today...

What happened?

Did someone blow something in her ear?

Chu Qinghuang didn't say anything. She saw Concubine Feng tighten her handkerchief and heard her cursing in her heart, but she didn't care.

She just couldn't help wondering, did the original owner Chu Qinghuang have the ability to read minds?

Let alone the fact that Concubine Feng certainly didn't treat Chu Qinghuang sincerely, if the original owner really had the ability to read minds, she should be able to see that whether it was the Queen Mother, Concubine Feng, or Feng Jinzhi, they all really used and hated her.

How could she still stick to them so mindlessly?

"Xiao Qi." The Queen Mother frowned and looked at Chu Qinghuang thoughtfully, "What are you thinking about?"

"No misunderstanding." Chu Qinghuang came back to her senses and pretended not to understand the Queen Mother's implication, "Does the Queen Mother have anything else to do? If not, I'll leave first."

As she spoke, she stood up, obviously looking like she was going to leave.

Chu Qinghuang used to be like this, never taking rules and etiquette seriously, so Qinghuang naturally wouldn't make any changes in this regard.

If there was a big change at once, it would arouse suspicion.
