Chapter 1348

"Empress, this minister hasn't been feeling well recently, so I haven't been able to attend court. I didn't even attend the empress' conferring ceremony, but this minister has heard of the empress' name. I heard that the empress used to be King Ding Yuan's princess? Now you've jumped up and become the empress, this minister really admires this kind of ability. Seeing you today, the empress is truly charming, no wonder the emperor dotes on you so much. This minister wants to toast the empress a cup to show my respect. "

Chen Ning had not been sitting for long when she saw the purple robed middle aged man walk out from the table. He walked in front of her and raised the cup in his hand.

His voice was loud, and he deliberately raised his voice to speak. The ministers in the hall were talking to each other, but his voice immediately drowned out everyone's voices, and clearly drilled into everyone's ears.

As soon as the purple robed middle aged man's voice fell, a gasp filled the hall.

The ministers all opened their eyes wide as they looked at the purple robed man in disbelief.

The hall, which was originally very lively, instantly became deathly silent.

God! His courage was just too big, he could even say this kind of thing? This was simply openly mocking the empress! Did he not want his head anymore? Or did he not want his title anymore?

The ministers were all shouting in their hearts as they looked at the purple robed man like he was a monster.

But there were some people who revealed cold smiles as they looked at Chen Ning like they were watching a good show.

Although Xiao Ru was not smart, she could still hear that the purple robed man's words were beautiful, but every word was mocking the young miss.

Otherwise he would mention King Ding Yuan in this kind of situation. This was clearly humiliating the young miss in front of everyone!

"You ….. Who are you! You dare speak to the empress like this! "

Xiao Ru took a step forward and stared at the purple robed middle aged man.

The purple robed man did not even look at Xiao Ru. He just looked at Chen Ning and said with a cold smile, "You're just a maid, what qualifications do you have to shout in front of this duke? Did your master not teach you the rules of the palace?"

His words seemed like he was reprimanding Xiao Ru, but he was actually slapping Chen Ning's face.

Xiao Ru's face instantly turned red. She was embarrassed and couldn't help lowering her head and shrinking back. She thought that she had lost face for the young miss in front of everyone again.

Chen Ning's eyes swept over the purple robed man's face. Her lips slightly curled as she revealed a faint cold smile.

"You're shouting in front of this princess, do you understand the rules of the court? This princess' maid will naturally be taught by this princess, there is no need for a duke like you to do anything! "She leaned back and casually said.

Xiao Ru's eyes turned red and tears began to form in her eyes.

Whenever she was bullied, Eldest Young Miss would always stand by her side, supporting her and helping her vent her anger! Even if she had to die for the young miss, she would be it!

Although Chen Ning had never seen the purple robed man before, seeing his aggressive tone towards her, her heart skipped a beat. She had already guessed his identity.

This purple robed middle aged man must be Zhao Rong Junzhu's biological father, the Duke of Ning bestowed by the emperor.

Like father, like daughter. His daughter was so hateful, and as her father, he was just as hateful as his daughter, Zhao Rong Junzhu!
