Mu Jin glared angrily, "Liu Meiren, don't forget, our empress is still a concubine appointed by the emperor. What qualifications do you, a beauty, have to be so presumptuous in front of my empress."

Mu Jin couldn't bear to see others looking down on her mother-in-law like this. Her mother-in-law had been the proud daughter of heaven since she was a child, and now she was a concubine with the highest status in the harem. How could she be so angry?

Liu Meiren glanced at her sideways and said sarcastically, "Your master hasn't spoken yet. What qualifications do you, a slave, have to yell at me here?"

Lin Yan no longer looked on coldly, "Liu Meiren is so majestic."

Mu Jin was scolded by Liu Meiren because of her, so she would not ignore it, not to mention, it was not her turn to be bullied by others.

Doesn't Meiren Liu use her status to suppress others? What a coincidence. My status is higher than hers.

The concubines of Dayong were ranked from high to low, namely empress, noble concubine, concubine, Zhaoyi, Jieyu, Ronghua, Wanyi, Liangyuan, beauty, and selected attendant.

"I'm just telling the truth." Liu Meiren said proudly.

The smile on Lin Yan's face became brighter and brighter, but she stopped it in an instant, "Liu Meiren thinks your status is higher than hers, but what about me?"

Liu Meiren's proud expression froze, but she quickly recovered and said calmly, "You are a concubine, but don't forget that your father committed a major crime of treason, and your Lin family was also sentenced to execution.

So what if you are in the imperial concubine position, the emperor will surely depose you soon."

"Shu Fei, you won't be proud for long."

Lin Yan sneered twice and didn't agree with what Liu Meiren said. After all, she knew the truth.

"So Liu Meiren still recognizes me as the imperial concubine?"

Liu Meiren was silent. Although she didn't want to admit it, she couldn't deny it.

"I naturally recognize you."

Lin Yan nodded, looking like he suddenly understood, "It seems that I am still a concubine. Otherwise, looking at Liu Meiren's appearance, I would have thought that Liu Meiren was a concubine."

Liu Meiren's face instantly darkened, and her nails clenched her palms tightly.

Lin Yan ignored Liu Meiren's reaction and stared at her coldly, "Liu Meiren doesn't accept it, right?" Then he sneered and said, "If you don't accept it, I'll hold it back for you."

He also asked, "If Liu Mei is guilty of the above crime, what crime should she be punished for?"

Only then did Liu Meiren panic, "You don't have the right to govern the harem, so you can't punish me."

He added, "You, the Lin family, are treasonous. You are just the daughter of a guilty minister, so what qualifications do you have to punish me?"

Lin Yan's expression remained unchanged, "I am a concubine, and you are just a beauty." He then said with a smile, "By the way, I forgot to tell you something. My Lin family was pardoned by the emperor, and your calculations were wrong."

Lin Yan spoke every word very slowly, so that Mei Liu could hear clearly.

Liu Meiren stared at Lin Yan in disbelief, trying to find a trace of lies on her face, but she was disappointed. Lin Yan's expression never changed.

"So, am I qualified to punish you?" Lin Yan looked directly at Liu Meiren.

And Liu Meiren couldn't believe it. The emperor pardoned the Lin family so easily. This was a capital crime of treason. And Lin Yan didn't care about this before. Why would she hold on to it this time?

Liu Meiren took a deep breath and said, "I know I was wrong."

Lin Yan raised the corner of his mouth and adjusted his sleeves, "Oh, you know your mistake? What I want is not your knowledge of your mistake." He added, "Since Liu Meiren has realized her mistake, then she will kneel on the palace road for an hour.

Go back again!"

Lin Yan's two light words decided Liu Meiren's fate.
