Since Zhan Wenxuan's mother-concubine died in childbirth, Zhan Wenxuan and his sister Zhan Wenlin were sent to Concubine De to be raised.
He was very grateful to Concubine De for her kindness in raising their brothers and sisters. He also had Concubine De to seek medical advice for his narcolepsy for so many years.
Therefore, Zhan Wenxuan will try his best to follow Concubine De's wishes on many matters, including his own marriage!
Su Yun was the one assigned to him by Concubine De. Even though she didn't like it, she still let her in and raised her with the false title of a concubine.
Unexpectedly, Su Yun was greedy. Especially after Su Wan's death, she became even more troubled. Not only did she say in front of him, "I am lonely in the house, I want a child to accompany me," but she also relied on the virtue of having a concubine.
Supporting her, she claims to be the future mistress of the virtuous prince’s palace.
Doesn't this clearly tell Zhan Wenxuan: I am the person your mother and concubine likes, even if I am just a concubine now, I will still become your virtuous princess in the future!
There was still noise outside, and Maple Leaf's words made Zhan Wenxuan's anger surge up in an instant. He glanced at Bai Yu beside him, and walked towards the door with a cold face.
Bai Qian naturally understood what Zhan Wenxuan meant, so he immediately went over to open the door, went out before him, and ordered sternly: "Come here, take down the maid Feng Ye!"
After saying this, before the master and servant could finish their shouts, two secret guards came out of the darkness. They quickly dragged Maple Leaf aside with their hands and feet, and forced them to kneel on the ground.
Su Yun was immediately dumbfounded. She didn't understand that she usually asked Maple Leaf to say this, but why did it happen to be like this today.
"My lord, what are you doing-" Without Maple Leaf's support, Su Yun couldn't stand, and her legs gave out and she fell to the ground. She looked at Zhan Wenxuan with aggrieved eyes, tears rolling down her eyes.
She wanted to use her haggard appearance to win the favor of the man in front of her. Unfortunately, this move had no effect on Zhan Wenxuan.
"A little bitchy maid has so much courage to dare to blatantly threaten me?!" Zhan Wenxuan didn't care about Su Yun at all, and didn't even give her a look. His eyes fell directly on Maple Leaf's face,
He shouted sharply.
Maple Leaf didn't dare to look at Zhan Wenxuan, knowing that this master must have murderous intentions now. After all, even if she was Su Yun's personal maid, she was just a maid in the final analysis.
If the wise king wants to kill a maid, isn't that easier than squeezing an ant to death?!
"Slave - I don't dare to -" Maple Leaf lowered his head, but he could still feel that he was being stared at, his whole body was numb, and he couldn't even speak clearly.
"Humph, you don't dare? I see that you don't look like a maid in the palace on weekdays. Do you think that since I have never married a concubine again, your master can successfully take that position? You are in this virtuous position.
Can the status of the royal palace rise as a result?"
To be honest, Maple Leaf has really thought about it. As long as Su Yun becomes the principal concubine, she can become Zhan Wenxuan's roommate. If she pleases the prince, she can become a concubine, or even a side concubine.
But now it seems that my road has been completely blocked...
"Please forgive me, Your Majesty. I'm just a lowly maid. I don't dare to have such thoughts." Maple Leaf quickly begged for mercy, but he still had the same momentum as before.
She struggled to break free from the shackles of the secret guard and kowtow to Zhan Wenxuan to admit her mistake. However, the secret guards were all highly skilled in martial arts, so no matter how hard she struggled, it was useless. In desperation, Maple Leaf had no choice but to look at Su Yun, asking for help.
Su Yun's face didn't look good at this time. Maple Leaf was her confidant. If Zhan Wenxuan got angry and had someone beat him to death with sticks, wouldn't she lose a right-hand man?!
"Your Majesty—" Su Yun wanted to understand this and quickly spoke to Zhan Wenxuan.
But Zhan Wenxuan didn't want to listen to Su Yun at all. When she called out "Prince", he said coldly: "Shut up!"
Then, without waiting for Su Yun to react, he ordered: "The servant girl Feng Ye is arrogant. If you commit the crime below, drag her down and give her fifty sticks. If she is still alive, she will be sent to the concubine's yard. If she can't survive it, she will die.
Just throw it into the mass grave, and there is no need to report it to the king again!"
