Chapter 334: Warning
Chapter 334: Warning
"I am quite curious. What exactly happened that you have to gossip about others in your own palace? Why don't you just tell me directly and see if I can stand up for you?"
The words had barely left her lips when Murong Xueqi was undoubtedly startled. She immediately focused her gaze on the palace maid, wondering why this maid hadn't...
"What are you saying, Sister Huang? It's nothing more than..."
Gan Luo immediately dismissed all the palace maids around her, leaving only her and Murong Xueqi there.
At this moment, Murong Xueqi had fine beads of sweat on her forehead, and for some reason, she suddenly felt a great pressure.
"Let me tell you, my patience has its limits. If you continue to challenge my bottom line here, I will not hesitate to deal with you according to the palace rules."
According to Gan Luo's understanding, Murong Xueqi was a gift from Prime Minister Xu to Gan Yanling.
"Your Majesty, I don't quite understand what you mean. I hope you can give me some guidance."
Gan Luo felt a little disgusted by the man's hypocritical behavior and immediately grabbed Murong Xueqi's throat tightly.
"Don't think I don't know what you're doing. If Shangguan Tian'er and Lvzhu failed to protect Xu Jiu, I will pin the blame on you. You can try it here if you don't believe me. I mean what I say."
In that instant, Murong Xueqi realized that the reason Gan Luo almost miscarried before Xu Jiu knew was because of her.
"The only reason I haven't taken action against you is because you are the emperor's concubine. If you insist on staying here and refusing to admit your mistakes, then I feel there's no need to give you any more face."
Murong Xueqi was panicked, but she could only nod repeatedly. It has to be said that Gan Luo's aura was very strong.
"There's one more thing: stay put in your own palace. If you continue to run around, I'll break your legs and see if you can still run around like that."
"Your Highness, what you've said is a bit too much. I am His Majesty's concubine, and you're treating your brother's concubine like this. Do you think it's appropriate?"
Is there anything inappropriate about what I'm doing?
Gan Luo was the eldest princess and the emperor's elder sister. Even if the emperor did something wrong, it was generally not wrong for Gan Luo to educate him.
It was this young concubine who said that Gan Luo could have made a mistake, which she found unbelievable.
"Your Highness, there's something else I don't understand. Why does Princess take such good care of Xu Jiu?"
Gan Luo just stared at Murong Xueqi with a cold face. Murong Xueqi didn't dare to say another word and silently swallowed all the questions she wanted to ask.
Gan Luo then walked directly up to Murong Xueqi. "I came here today only to tell you these things. You understand the rest yourself. I hope you will take care of yourself."
Gan Luo left without even turning his head. After Gan Luo left, Murong Xue was furious and immediately punished all the palace maids in the palace.
"Your Highness, what did you say to this concubine just now? She seems very angry."
When they came out, they saw that Murong Xueqi's face was gloomy.
"I merely gave this concubine a warning, to see if she dares to do such things again."
Gan Luo possesses the ability to read minds. Doesn't he know what Murong Xueqi resembles?
Murong Xueqi must have found a carrier pigeon and written a letter here, which she then handed directly to Prime Minister Xu.
When Prime Minister Xu learned of these events, he was naturally quite incredulous at that moment, never expecting that Gan Luo would actually threaten Murong Xueqi here. "I never imagined that this princess would interfere in the affairs of the inner palace; it truly shocks me."
But I really didn't expect Gan Luo to interfere in the harem here.
Xu Jinxin happened to enter just then and, upon hearing what Prime Minister Xu said, looked somewhat puzzled. "Father, what were you saying? I didn't quite catch that. What happened?"
Prime Minister Xu shook his head, indicating that nothing had happened.
He then looked at Xu Jinxin, wondering what she was planning to do, since she usually wouldn't come to see him at this time.
"Father, there's something I want to tell you. My birthday is coming up soon, isn't it? I want to tell you..."
At this moment, the steward outside rushed into the study and informed Prime Minister Xu.
"Grandpa, Lord Li is now requesting an audience with you. I wonder if you will grant him an audience?"
Prime Minister Xu nodded slightly, indicating that he would naturally meet with them. Prime Minister Xu then went outside to receive Lord Li.
At this time, Xu Jinxin must have been relatively sad.
That's it.
Afterwards, Xu Jinxin left the Prime Minister's residence alone and went to a restaurant to drink.
It just so happens that the waiter at this restaurant was Gan Luo's employee. Seeing this, he informed Gan Luo of the matter. "I never expected that Xu Jinxin would have something to worry about. It's quite shocking."
After all, Xu Jinxin, with her sharp tongue, doesn't seem like someone who has any worries on a daily basis.
"Your Highness, how about we go to this restaurant during the summer vacation to observe and see what Xu Jinxin is up to these days?"
Gan Luo shook his head, indicating that the matter was not important.
"What she does is of no concern to me at all, and she has no way of stirring up any trouble."
Xu Jinxin stayed in the restaurant the whole time and drank a pot of wine, after which she was quite drunk.
She was shouting loudly, "What's going on here? Why am I taking so long to serve you guys? I really don't know why your boss still lets you all work in this restaurant."
When they suddenly heard what Xu Jinxin said, they must have all felt a little incredulous at that moment.
They all understood that Xu Jinxin was drunk and acting out.
