Chapter 290 Retreat as Advance
Everyone's eyes began to fall on Yun Xi.
They were really curious about how the newly returned eldest princess should deal with the empress dowager and the queen's making things difficult for her.
Facing these eyes watching the play, Yu Yunxi remained calm from beginning to end.
She smiled, then slowly got up and walked down step by step.
Seeing her like this, everyone scoffed even more.
I thought the eldest princess was capable, but she turned out to be a soft persimmon.
The father-in-law Jin Fu who was beside the Empress Dowager ran straight to her and said proudly, "Eldest Princess, please come here, there is an empty seat here."
But in the next moment, Yu Yunxi strode to the guard next to him.
Before everyone knew what she wanted to do, she had already drawn out her sword.
The sharp blade flashed past, and everyone only felt that their eyes were flashed.
Immediately afterwards, they heard screams.
Opening his eyes and looking over, he found that Jin Fu in the middle of the hall had fallen to the ground, and his tongue was cut off by Yu Yunxi with a sword.
Blood stained Jin Fu's face and flowed to the ground.
"Yu Yunxi, what are you doing?"
The empress dowager was anxious and angry.
Jin Fu is her confidant, isn't Yu Yunxi's actions slapping her in the face?
"Yu Yunxi, did you intentionally hurt someone because you were dissatisfied with the position arrangement?" Emperor Chu Zai said with a sullen face.
The emperor was angry, and everyone around him trembled.
Everyone thought that Yu Yunxi would be afraid, but she said casually: "Your Majesty guessed right, Yun Xi is indeed annoyed by this arrangement. Although Yun Xi didn't grow up in Xichu since she was a child, she still knows how to be respectful and orderly." of."
"When will the princess of a country have to sit in the position of a courtier's family? And when will the princess of a country have to listen to an eunuch's instructions?" She said quietly again.
"Yu Yunxi, this position was arranged by me. Are you dissatisfied with me?" The empress dowager was so angry that she covered her heart.
"How could it be, Empress Dowager, you are an elder, how could Yun Xi be dissatisfied with you. However, the dignified Western Chu, the etiquette is so ridiculous, isn't this a joke? As the most honorable woman in Western Chu, the Empress Dowager, How could you not know these rules, right?" Yu Yunxi asked with a smile.
"You..." The empress dowager's face was extremely ugly.
She is nodding now, and she is not nodding.
"You must have been joking with Yun Xi just now, but who knew that this stupid slave would be so clueless that he really wanted to take Yun Xi to that position. If Yun Xi hadn't cut off his tongue in time just now, I'm afraid he You still don't know how to repent, and you've hurt the Empress Dowager, so that everyone will mistakenly think that you don't love Yun Xi, and deliberately made things difficult for Yun Xi."
Yu Yunxi shook her head and sighed, and said in embarrassment: "Empress Dowager, Yun Xi has never been with her elders since she was a child, so when she heard that she was going to see you in the palace today, Yun Xi was very happy. Yun Xi even thought So, you must be the kindest grandmother. So, you didn't deliberately make things difficult for Yun Xi, did you?"
Yu Yunxi spoke several times in a row, and the Empress Dowager and the others didn't even have a chance to interrupt.
The atmosphere in the main hall seemed to have fallen into dead silence.
All the ministers secretly let out a sigh of relief, their minds turned a thousand times.
The eldest princess's mouth can really **** people off.
Didn’t the empress dowager and the queen deliberately make things difficult for her?
How could the empress dowager admit it when she exposed it so openly?
This eldest princess seems to be not simple.
Gritting her teeth, the empress dowager spoke with difficulty, "Yun Xi, you misunderstood. Although your mother was not born to me, I still regard you as my granddaughter. It's too late to care about you. How could I make things difficult for you?" Woolen cloth?"
"Yeah, we were joking with you just now. Who knew that this stupid slave would take it seriously and dare to be rude to you. Someone, drag this slave down and beat him to death."
Empress Qin comforted Yun Xi kindly at first, and then gave orders sternly.
Jin Fu shook his head in panic, but was finally dragged down by the rest of the eunuchs.
After all, how clean are the hands of a dog that can be around the empress dowager? It's nothing more than death.
"Yun Xi, Diao Nu has already dealt with it, but it is wrong for you to hurt someone in front of the emperor."
Empress Qin set her eyes on Yun Xi again, and she spoke quietly.
Is she trying to win a game against Yu Yunxi?
Hearing this, Yu Yunxi took out a handkerchief from her body, wiped the blood on her fingers unhurriedly, and then said softly: "Empress, Yun Xi has just returned to the palace, and she doesn't understand many rules. Seeing that stupid slave do it If something went wrong, I want to deal with him as soon as possible, lest he ruin the reputation of you and the empress dowager."
"Empress, but Yun Xi did something wrong?" Yu Yunxi frowned, pretending to be worried.
"Your fault is..." Empress Qin followed her words and wanted to blame her.
But who knows, the next moment, Yu Yunxi actually interrupted her: "Yun Xi understands, you want to say, that stupid slave almost caused everyone to misunderstand that you and the empress dowager deliberately made things difficult for me! He really deserves death, I Just cutting off his tongue is too cheap for him, I should just take his life."
"you…"
Empress Qin originally had a lot to say, but at this moment she was left speechless by Yu Yunxi.
She was so angry that her lips and teeth began to tremble.
Yu Yunxi, does she really not understand, or is she pretending not to understand?
"Empress, you seem to be angry? Do you think Yun Xi did something wrong? Then Yun Xi admits her mistake, and she will not talk nonsense in the future, and she will not stop what these slaves do. Anyway, my eldest princess has a bad reputation, you Even if the Empress Dowager and the Empress really want to make things difficult for me, I'll win."
Yu Yunxi shook her head and sighed.
"Yu Yunxi, you..."
The empress dowager was so angry that she had never been so "yin and yang" by a junior, so she wanted to scold Yu Yunxi.
But at this time, Yu Yunxi knelt heavily on the ground with a "bang".
She straightened her back and said in a firm tone: "If the Empress Dowager and Empress feel that Yun Xi is wrong, then Yun Xi will have to bear it. Whoever let Yun Xi have no parents to protect her, who made Yun Xi, the eldest princess, have a bad name It's not right."
this…
She talks like this, how can the empress dowager and queen deal with her.
If she is dealt with, wouldn't she become the vicious woman who deliberately made things difficult for her?
Everyone's minds were turning again and again.
The eldest princess is advancing by retreating, and she simply wants to push the empress dowager and the empress to nowhere.
Chu Zai stared at Yun Xi with his icy eyes, and then said angrily: "Slick tongue, just relying on you to contradict the empress dowager and the empress again and again, I can punish you. Chang Ning didn't teach you to respect your elders. I will teach you today! Someone, drag the eldest princess down and fold the stick for thirty!"
There has never been a member of the royal family who would have his staff broken at a palace banquet, especially at a palace banquet held for her.
Yu Yunxi set a precedent.
But it also shows that the emperor really cannot tolerate her existence.
Yu Xiaoxiao happily ate grapes, her mouth still babbling.
Yo, what about the eldest princess? So what about glib tongue?
The emperor wants to punish you, so he will punish you!
The name of the eldest princess is nothing more than that.
The rest of the people looked at Yu Yunxi from admiration to embarrassment.
"Princess!"
"cousin!"
Meng Xia and Chu Jing were anxious and wanted to rush out.
But at this moment, an old but full of spirit voice came from the door.
"She didn't say anything wrong, so how could it be considered contradictory?"
