Imperial Concubine Duan said indifferently, "Go and get thirty boards, leave now!"

She did not argue with Imperial Concubine Ming, and just neatly handled the situation.

The female officer did not dare to object and instead retreated while trembling.

Suddenly, the small storm that was just stirred up by Ye Qingli had dispersed.

Ye Qingli could not help but admire Imperial Concubine Duan's actions.

However, the people around her were even more surprised that Ye Qingli actually dared to speak up!

Although the female officer was punished, who could tell that the female official was just representing Imperial Concubine Duan's piece of mind?

What they heard before was that Ye Qingli was just some garbage.

Unexpectedly, she was such a proud person!

They did not know whether she was stupid or simply crazy.

Ye Qingli was not the kind of idiot who acted based on emotions and be reckless.

The reason she had such a big reaction was because she felt that Imperial Concubine Duan had a needle to pick with her.

Although she didn't know the reason, she did not doubt that it was untrue.

Patience was not Ye Qingli's style.

Of course she had to fight back fiercely!

Moreover, trying to ruin her image in front of the public, Imperial Concubine Duan was not good enough to deal with her that way.

How could anyone else understand the twists and turns. Looking at Ye Qingli's expression was much more meaningful.

At this time, another younger imperial concubine at the bottom said, "Although there is no such rule in the law, but if you were to attend the elders' banquet, you must at least understand etiquette. Or are you like this at home too?"

She looked at Madam Guo grimly.

"The madam of the Ye family, it seems that your education was not very good!"

That person was Imperial Concubine Duan's trusted aide. Moreover, she had a good relationship with Jun Lin Feng, and had met Ye Yun Xiao a couple times.

At that moment, she would naturally talk to them.

Ye Yun Xiao tugged Madam Guo's sleeve and Madam Guo immediately understood. She quickly wiped the corners of her eyes, stood up, and said in horror, "This lowly imperial concubine has been negligent of her education, which resulted in her being this crude and uncivilised. All these wrongdoings were all due to the wrongdoings of this lowly imperial concubine. Imperial concubine please punish this lowly imperial concubine, she is not in the wrong. Otherwise, how would I be able to face elder sister[1] in the after life?"

[1: The first wife]

Ye Yun Xiao coughed a few times, "Mother, why are you willing to take the blame..."

The two were in tears, a mother and daughter showing filial piety.

Someone looked at Ye Qingli's eyes, but something was wrong.

They thought that Madam Guo was motherly figure for her who was also her stepmother, but it clearly expressed Ye Qingli's violent temperament. As her stepmother, Madam Guo would not be able to control her. This was what lead up to this moment.

It was hard to be her stepmother!

Many of the main wives of the family were moved by that speech.

Imperial Concubine Duan slowly rolled her eyes.

"The palace gave you a chance to explain! If you do not explain, then don't blame me for punishing you for not having any etiquette."

Many people's eyes lit up.

Although Imperial Concubine Duan couldn't pinpoint Ye Qingli's crime, but with those words, Ye Qingli's reputation in the future would be ruined throughout the city.

Little He stomped anxiously beside her.

Ye Qingli's reputation couldn't be ruined just like this!

However, she had already thought of everything but couldn't come up with a solution.

Madam Guo stared at her fiercely.

Hmm, the imperial concubine has already given those golden commands, let me see what kind of tricks you can come up with!

Ye Yun Xiao's face remained calm, but she was very proud.

The imperial concubine was pressuring her!

Let's see what chances she had to make a comeback!
