Chapter 466: Chapter 466:1 want to clean up after her, but your Majesty’s heart aches

Li Hongyuan said, “Emperor Father, please calm down. I admit my wrongs. This matter has nothing to do with the Princess Consort, and I’m willing to bear all the responsibility.”

“You really know how to protect your wife,” the Emperor sneered, “She was the one who hit and injured her. How can this have nothing to do with her?”

The Emperor slapped the table forcefully, “Jiang Ning, do you admit your guilt?”

Jiang Ning calmly replied, “Your Majesty, Concubine Xian is getting old, and I don’t mind her disrespectful words and actions. However, her hitting and scolding Wenzan and Lingzi led me, as their mother, to not be able to hold back my anger. Maybe it’s understandable?”

The Emperor frowned, “What disrespectful words and actions did she have?”

“Concubine Xian made a scene, saying that it’s because of me that Your Majesty doesn’t visit her chamber…”

“Silence,” the Emperor scolded, glancing around, “Watch your words.”

Those who didn’t know would have thought that there was something going on between her and the Emperor based on Jiang Ning’s words.

Li Hongyuan glanced at her, his handsome face expressionless, but a trace of amusement flitted through his eyes.

Jiang Ning looked somewhat innocent, “Your Majesty, it’s not me who said that, it’s Concubine Xian.”

“That’s absurd,” the Emperor was a bit displeased.

As an emperor, his not going to a concubine’s chamber couldn’t be blamed on his daughter-in-law.

This rumor would be too unpleasant if it got out.

The Emperor was somewhat dissatisfied with Concubine Xian in his heart.

He used to think she was calm, steady, and understood the bigger picture. But now, as she had grown older, she went to the East Palace to cause trouble with the Princess Consort over such trivial jealousy.

After a moment of silence, the Emperor slowly said, “Even if her words were inappropriate, you could have sought the Empress to speak for you. You should not have resorted to violence.”

“Yes, I won’t dare to do it next time,” Jiang Ning obediently apologized.

The Emperor sneered coldly, “You still expect there to be a next time? If it happens again, Concubine Xian might just die at your hands.”

“Your Majesty is wise; I would never dare to do such a thing,” Jiang Ning knelt on the ground, “Concubine Xian is my elder. If it weren’t for her blaming and scolding Wenzan and Lingzi and kicking the protective Concubine Li, I wouldn’t have lost my senses and resorted to this.”

“Did Concubine Xian kick Wenzan?”

“She wasn’t able to kick Wenzan, it was Concubine Li who was protecting him that got hurt.”

“It seems that this Concubine Li is good.”

“Yes,” Jiang Ning laughed, “Those of our East Palace all have good qualities.”

The Emperor glanced at her, “So everyone in the East Palace is good, but those who cause trouble in the East Palace are not good, right?”

Jiang Ning said, “Your Majesty, why not visit Concubine Xian’s chamber more often…”

“Nonsense!” The Emperor slapped the table, “When did it become your turn to meddle in my affairs?”

“If Your Majesty doesn’t go, Concubine Xian feels stifled and ends up picking arguments with us younger generations. How can any of us bear it? Although I am usually gentle and accommodating, a rabbit pushed too far will bite too. If I wound Concubine Xian next time, wouldn’t that be bad?”

The Emperor was rendered speechless by her and laughed.

He pointed at Jiang Ning and told Li Hongyuan, “Listen, listen, this is the good daughter-in-law you married. What nonsense she’s talking!”

Li Hongyuan looked at Jiang Ning and raised his eyebrows, “Are you the gentle and accommodating rabbit?”

“It’s just an analogy. What can I do if Concubine Xian wants to cause trouble?”

“As the Crown Prince’s consort, are you saying you can’t suppress a Concubine Xian?” The Emperor was annoyed, “You were fierce when you hit her, but now you’re saying you’re helpless against Concubine Xian?”

Jiang Ning said, “If I were to deal with her, Your Majesty would feel distressed…”

“Shut your mouth!”

“Your Majesty, please punish me. I am willing to accept it,” Jiang Ning said..
