The little dark guard who travels between two lives

Chapter 99 Conflict

After meeting the ladies, the Empress sent someone to ask the Emperor if he could start the banquet. The eunuch who was sent to reply said that the Emperor was still discussing matters with the ministers, so the Empress asked her to wait a little longer.

The Queen looked at Xin He and smiled, "Since the Emperor is still busy, let's talk here for a while. You children don't have to watch over us. Your sister is entering the palace for the first time. You and the other princesses can take Qingyan to the Imperial Garden for a walk."

Xinhe and the other princesses bowed to the queen and left, and the group of girls walked towards the Imperial Garden with smiles on their faces. Along the way, Xinhe introduced the palaces and scenery in the palace to Qingyan one by one.

The third princess stepped forward at this time and looked at the two sisters arrogantly: "Qin Xinhe, are you showing off to your country bumpkin sister? Do I need you to introduce me one by one?"

Then he looked at Qin Qingyan with disdain: "Yes, when has your country bumpkin sister ever seen such a rich scene? I saw your sister was almost dumbfounded when she saw those rewards just now. You have never seen so many treasures, right?"

Several young ladies around the third princess also covered their mouths and laughed with ill intent. They were the young ladies who usually didn't get along with Xinhe and depended on the third princess.

Being called a country bumpkin in front of her, Qin Qingyan's face turned red instantly. She lowered her head and looked at the ground, not daring to say a word.

Xin He took a step forward angrily, protecting Qing Yan behind him, and glared at the Third Princess: "My sister is the daughter of the Prime Minister, she is not someone the Third Princess can insult at will."

"The Third Princess sneered at my Qin Mansion's legitimate daughter, but she is dissatisfied with my Qin Mansion. The Emperor and Empress have always taught the princes and princesses to be humble and polite to their subjects. Why can the Third Princess not listen to the Emperor and Empress' teachings?"

Xinhe made the Third Princess speechless with just a few words. The Third Princess hated Xinhe's sharp tongue the most. Relying on the favor of her father, the emperor and her mother, the queen, she always looked down on herself in the palace.

The third princess pointed at Xinhe and scolded: "Qin Xinhe, you are just a princess, your position is lower than mine, and your sister is just a country bumpkin from the countryside. What right do you have to boss me around and scold me? You are committing treason!"

After saying that, the third princess turned her head and looked at the palace maid beside her: "She is disrespectful to me, go and slap her in the face!" The palace maid looked at Xinhe who was standing calmly and did not dare to step forward.

Everyone knows that Princess Anyi was personally conferred by the Emperor and that she had saved the Queen. The Third Princess is also crazy. Anyone who dares to go up and hit the princess would be courting death.

The third princess was even more angry when she saw that her maids dared not move. She had long wanted to deal with Qin Xinhe. She was her father's biological daughter, but why was the daughter of this minister so arrogant in the palace and more favored than herself?

Even her own maid didn't listen to her. The third princess was so angry that she slapped the little maid in the face and said, "Useless servant, what do I need you for if you don't listen to me?"

She was filled with rage, but she didn't dare to do anything to Xin He. She could only vent her anger on the little palace maid: "Come here, drag this disobedient servant away and beat him to death!"

The little palace maid covered her face and cried out in fear: "Princess, spare me! Princess, spare me!" Several young eunuchs came forward and tried to pull her away.

Qin Qingyan didn't expect that a single word in the palace could cost the life of a palace maid. She stood behind Xinhe, lowered her head even more, and dared not say a word.

Xin He had never expected that the Third Princess would be so domineering and would end the life of an innocent person at will. In the past, the Third Princess was just a little arrogant, but now that she is older, she has become even more unbelievable and is so vicious.

The ladies around did not dare to speak at this time. A princess or a county lady was not someone they could offend. They just stood by and watched.

Xin He couldn't let this little palace maid die for no reason. She patted her sister's hand soothingly, then stepped forward to stop the eunuchs: "Stop!"

The third princess sneered and said, "Princess Anyi, I have to remind you that this is my maid. How I deal with the servants around me, do I need your consent as the princess?"

Xin He helped the little maid up: "I am also a human being. How can you let the princess beat and kill me at will? The Queen has always been kind to the servants in the palace. She has long ago ordered that maids and eunuchs should not be beaten and killed at will. Princess, do you not take the Queen's order seriously?"

Seeing Xin He bringing up the Empress again, the Third Princess became even more angry: "This servant disobeyed my orders and betrayed his master. Why can't I beat him to death?"

Xin He argued: "The princess's order was wrong in the first place. She didn't listen to it for the princess's sake, so as to prevent the princess from making a big mistake. Not only is she innocent, but she has done a great deed. Of course, she cannot be beaten to death."

The third princess was so angry that she almost exploded: "A servant who disobeyed the master's orders is still rewarded. What kind of perverted logic is this? I'm going to beat her to death today. I don't know who dares to stop me!"

After saying that, the Third Princess glanced at Xin He again and said, "Whoever dares to stop me, I will beat him together!"

Xin He was not afraid of the Third Princess's anger at all. She stepped forward and stood in front of the little palace maid, looking at the Third Princess coldly: "I am the princess appointed by the Emperor himself. Let's see who dares to attack me."

The Third Princess watched the servants around her shrinking back and not rushing forward, and she was furious: "You dog servants, how dare you disobey me? She is just a little princess, what is there to be proud of? I am the daughter of my father, the emperor, and my mother, the empress, and the princess of Dayin. Today I am going to beat her up, let's see who can stop me!"

After saying that, the third princess took a step forward, raised her hand high and was about to slap Xinhe. Xinhe held her neck high and looked at her without dodging or avoiding, refusing to retreat even a step.

"Stop!" The third princess was so frightened by the roar that she stopped and turned around to see that it was the emperor who was leading several adults and princes towards her.

After the emperor finished talking to several ministers in front, he led the ministers and princes who came to attend the palace banquet today to Chenghua Hall where the banquet was held.

As soon as he arrived at the Imperial Garden, he saw a group of beautifully dressed little girls playing and admiring the flowers. Just as the Emperor was about to speak, he heard the Third Princess and Xinhe arguing.

When the second prince saw that his sister was about to get into trouble, he wanted to stop her, but the emperor stopped him with a cold look.

The emperor stood behind a bush of flowers, frowning more and more as he listened. The second prince beside him sweated more and more as he listened. The second prince knew what kind of personality his sister had. He had often heard her complain about her dissatisfaction with Miss Qin in his mother's palace.

The Second Prince and Concubine Xi had reminded her more than once not to conflict with Qin Xinhe, and warned her that Qin Xinhe was the Queen's favorite, and that only by obeying her could she gain the appreciation of the Emperor and the Queen.

Unexpectedly, the more this happened, the more the Third Princess became dissatisfied. Why should a princess like her obey the daughter of a minister? During this period, she received several compliments from her father, and even her mother became a little flattered, which resulted in the Third Princess becoming even more arrogant.

The Second Prince was seen by his father in this state today. He was worried about his sister and at the same time annoyed that she was always causing trouble.

When the emperor saw that the third princess was so disrespectful that she wanted to slap Xinhe with her own hands, he roared and stopped the third princess's action.

The third princess did not expect that the emperor would come to the imperial garden at this time. Looking at her father's angry face and her brother's disappointed look, she remembered her brother's usual warnings to her and felt scared at this moment.

The third princess' knees softened and she knelt before the emperor: "Father, it was Qin Xinhe who committed the crime, so I..."

When the little girls who were playing together saw the imperial carriage approaching, they all knelt on the ground and dared not say a word.

When Xin He saw that the Third Princess was the first to file a complaint, she was not afraid of this and immediately pulled Qing Yan to kneel before the Emperor. Everyone knows how to file a complaint, especially Princess Anyi, who has been in the palace for many years, is best at it. It's filing a complaint!

If you are wronged, you must learn to complain and let the emperor and empress support you! This is Princess Anyi's specialty!
