Chapter 2208: Chapter 2116: Palace Uproar (Part 1)

Xia Weibao’s face darkened. As a person of Jianghu, the word "integrity" hung at her waist—kneel to heaven, kneel to earth, kneel to parents. Who is this woman, and what right does she have to make her kneel!

"Who is she? Why should I kneel to her?"

"Miss, please stop speaking. I’ll explain to you when we return. Just kneel first."

Xia Weibao frowned slightly, seemingly puzzled.

Consort Lan’s gaze fell on the Blue Phoenix Immortal in her hand and instantly she was furious, "What audacity! You’ve dared to pluck His Majesty’s most cherished Blue Phoenix Immortal! Guards, seize her!"

Xia Weibao’s brows pressed down, evidently displeased.

Wang Cai trembled all over, quickly crawled forward on her knees to block Xia Weibao’s side, continuously kowtowing to Consort Lan.

"Please calm your anger, Consort Lan. Miss Xia has just entered the palace and doesn’t understand the rules. Please, Consort Lan, be magnanimous and don’t hold it against Miss Xia."

Wang Cai kowtowed hard, and after a few bangs, her forehead was already oozing blood.

Just hoping Consort Lan could cool down.

Xia Weibao’s eyes sunk with some concern, she grabbed Wang Cai’s hand and lifted her up.

"Stand up. My people don’t need to grovel to anyone!"

Wang Cai was so anxious that tears welled up, "Miss, please don’t be stubborn. This is the Imperial Palace, where rules are strict. Hurry and kneel to ask Consort Lan for forgiveness."

Xia Weibao felt a bit frustrated over the urgency of the matter.

Opposite, Consort Lan’s scrutinizing gaze fell on Xia Weibao. Just entered the palace?

Suddenly, something dawned on her, and her expression changed, "Is she the woman His Majesty brought into the palace yesterday?!"

Wang Cai made the gesture to kneel again, continuously kowtowing, "Consort Lan, Miss Xia was brought into the palace by His Majesty and doesn’t know the rules. Please, for His Majesty’s sake, forgive her this once."

Consort Lan’s eyes slowly narrowed, "Are you threatening me?"

Wang Cai was terrified, her face turned pale, and the blood on her forehead flowed down the nose, looking somewhat alarming.

"I wouldn’t dare, I wouldn’t dare."

Consort Lan cautiously scrutinized Xia Weibao, as if staring at an outsider invading her territory.

To the entire Imperial Harem now, Xia Weibao was an outsider, and a formidable rival at that!

Previously, His Majesty treated everyone equally, favoring none of the concubines.

But now he has brought back a woman, immediately breaking the fragile balance within the Imperial Harem.

A woman who could win His Majesty’s favor becomes the target of many!

Such a gaze made Xia Weibao vigilant.

Having wandered Jianghu for so long, she was extremely sensitive to others’ hostility.

The Consort Lan in front of her, with a murderous look in her eyes!

Xia Weibao pulled Wang Cai up, tucking her behind, protecting her silently like a protective mother.

Wang Cai couldn’t use martial arts; should Consort Lan decide to kill her, she would have no power to resist.

"Someone, this woman has disrespected her superior, collided with me, ignored imperial authority, damaged His Majesty’s cherished item, and scorned royal power, truly an enormous disrespect. Beat her a hundred times and throw her into the Heavenly Prison!"

Consort Lan’s voice resounded with malice, her eyes brimming with intense murderous intent.

A hundred blows—she does not believe the woman could endure!

Even if she truly can endure, Consort Lan has ways to make her disappear!

As soon as Consort Lan spoke, many people’s faces changed.

A few concubines happened to be strolling in the Imperial Garden and came over to watch the commotion upon hearing the noise. They glanced at each other, all keeping a low profile.

Watching the drama quietly.

The palace maid beside Consort Lan lowered her voice, "Consort Lan, Xia Weibao was brought into the palace by His Majesty himself. Should harm come to her, his side might..."
