The Empress was surprised by the Han Emperor"s gesture. She couldn"t believe her eyes ah~! Did he just slap that b.i.t.c.h? She even needed to pinch herself to make sure that this wasn"t a dream! How long had she wanted this to happen ah~?
Even if she died here, it would be worth it! After all, she was no match to that wicked concubine and always lived under her pressure all this time. She kept her excitement inside because she still knew where she was.
Indeed, the real n.o.ble lady was different from a low born woman that came from a brothel. The elegance came from within.
She sneered inwardly. "Hah! What a cruel man! He can even slap his so-called beloved woman in front of so many people. Really a joke! It seems like I shouldn"t have blamed the Ce Fei all along... This man doesn"t love anyone but himself!" The Empress thought to herself.
She was pretty sure that he only loved the idea for the Ce Fei to love him back so that he could feel that he had won from her previous husband... He just wanted to feel more superior than others. She knew how capable General Lin was... Their kingdom was defeated by him over and over again even though General Lin was so young back then.
The Han Emperor, who was a prince back then, also lost a lot of times back then. Thus, she also knew that the man must have hated General Lin so much.
How selfis.h.!.+
The wicked concubine looked at the Han Emperor in disbelief and asked, "You... You dare to hit me?! You crazy old man!"
The crowds gasped in surprise. This was the first time someone dared to curse an Emperor right in front of his face. They knew that the Han Emperor must have been feeling embarra.s.sed to death --- after all, his prestige as an Emperor had been opposed by his woman.
Their kingdom always taught that women should obey their husbands. If someone behaved like the wicked concubine, even if he was only an official, it would look like the man was being slapped in the face. What more if the man was an Emperor?
The audience could only shake their head ah~!
"You talked nonsense just now! Of course, I need to put you in your place!" The Han Emperor yelled. How could the woman dare to question what he did in front of so many officials? Cursing him? It seemed like it was time for this woman to go, after all, he had so many women in his harem.
"You... You..." The wicked concubine gritted her teeth in anger. She knew that she shouldn"t have called him names and already felt remorse about it, besides, she hadn"t successfully gotten her revenge towards Feng Yong Rui --- she had been patient for a long time ah~! However, this slap triggered her anger once again.
She became so unreasonable all of a sudden, even the wicked concubine was confused as well. Why couldn"t she hold back her feelings just like usual?! The wicked concubine felt that something was fishy but she didn"t know what was going on.
She didn"t know that one of her people was Feng Yong Rui"s spy. Her personal maid had added something to her perfumed sachet so that it could affect her mood for quite some times. She increased the dosage right before the banquet, thus, it led to her current mood --- uncontrollable.
In a way, she also hated the man in front of her so much! If it wasn"t because of her master"s order, she didn"t really want to fight for this stupid Emperor"s favor.
"You are just a stupid Emperor! I will loud and clear tell the world what kind of Emperor you are! A s.e.x addict who even resorted to the drug even though you exclaimed to love her over and over again. You wanted her to satisfy, kneel, and beg for you, letting her degrade herself like she was a prost.i.tute! But she didn"t actually want you... she just wanted the drugs. Ha--Ha--Ha! Don"t you remember how she kept calling for General Lin"s help? The man that she loved would never be you! Just ask her ghost!" The wicked concubine was poking on his sore spot which made him feel angry even more.
She basically told people everything that had happened in those sentences loud and clear.
Xiao Fang, Yao Ling, and Lin Jian"s moods were affected by what the wicked concubine had revealed. Their hatred couldn"t be concealed anymore when they heard for real what they had done to Jiu Lan back then. They knew that they wouldn"t let this woman go no matter what --- she needed to die!
Yao Ling started to clutch her hand tighter once more, planning to kill her as soon as possible. Her power had started to be directed at the wicked concubine once more. However, Yao Ying grabbed her hand just in time, trying to prevent her from doing so. Yao Ying shook his head. "Not yet... Not yet... It"s not the right time... Calm yourself down!" He warned her softly, after all, they still needed the woman ah~!
Yao Ling knew what Yao Ying meant, but she really wanted to kill the woman! Her moon birthmark started to glow once again...
"You can get your revenge soon... But we still need her confession. Remember? Otherwise, we can"t make people truly despise the Han Emperor. Not only that, but we shouldn"t let your hands get dirty!" Yao Ying said in a low voice. "Remember... We have to finish our new plan!"
Yao Ling could only loosen her hand and nodded her head, even though she was unwilling. She needed to think of the big picture ah~!
Xiao Fang quickly put in more words before the Han Emperor could deny it once again, "You beast! You did the same thing to Han Xiang! Disgusting! A sc.u.mbag!"
The crowds turned into a roar! They almost forgot about Princess Han Xiang ah~! When they heard the description just now, they had already felt disgusted enough... But doing that to her daughter as well? They really wanted to kill the man as well --- this Emperor really had no bottom line!
The Han Emperor felt that he needed to justify himself and he forgot that he shouldn"t blurt out the truth --- his own scandal. However, he was too angry, thus, he yelled in a loud voice, "That"s because she"s not our real daughter!" His voice was so loud that it defeated the crowd"s murmur.
When the crowd heard his loud yell, all of them were feeling dumbfounded and the banquet turned into silence. What was that? Not their real daughter? Was that really the truth? The audience couldn"t believe what they had just heard ah~!
They felt enlightened by today"s banquet ah~!
Xiao Fang laughed out loud while she was crying blood tears --- yes, blood! Xiao Fang went all out to get the desired effect, but she felt like crying real tears as well. After all, she couldn"t stand the fishy smell of the blood as well. However, she had to keep reminding herself over and over again...
"I can do this!"
"I can do this!"
She chanted a few times. After all, she needed to make her ghost appear to be as convincing as possible ah~!
"How dare you say that?! Han Xiang is our child, you... b.a.s.t.a.r.d! How could you slander us like that?!" Xiao Fang yelled back with her ghostly voice. They had already planned that they needed to ensure that people understood something... Han Xiang was the real daughter. Otherwise, the Han Emperor wouldn"t stop looking for her.
