Before boarding the carriage, Han Yunxi had already taken the antidote. She had brought along some commonly used antidotes and poisons. Today, it seemed that they were very useful. The ancient people were much more skilled at using poisons than the modern people. In the modern era, most poisons were artificially synthesized by artificial intelligence. In the ancient era, any flower or grass could be poisoned.
Sitting in the carriage with His Highness Duke of Qin, they headed to the palace. He closed his eyes to rest, but Han Yunxi unconsciously stole glances at him.
Looking carefully at this man, his features were even more handsome than last night. Especially when he was quiet, he was like a statue of a god, noble and inviolable.
A red handkerchief might not mean much to him, but to her, it was a matter of a lifetime. Although they had made a deal beforehand, Han Yunxi still felt grateful from the bottom of her heart.
Han Yunxi didn't know that countless gambling games had been set up in the palace because of her. Countless people had lost money, so the number of people she had offended was also innumerable.
She originally thought that she would only see the empress dowager, but she didn't expect to see a room full of people in the Palace of Heaven and Earth.
Although the room was silent, pairs of cold eyes filled with contempt, disdain, contempt, and resentment shot towards Han Yunxi like sharp arrows.
Looks couldn't kill, but they could scare people to death.
Han Yunxi sighed in her heart. What did she do wrong to be so disliked?
The Duke of Qin was the imperial uncle and was the Duke of Qin's legal wife. Han Yunxi was the empress dowager's daughter-in-law and the empress's sister-in-law. Not to mention the emperor's concubines, even the emperor's children had to pay their respects when they saw her.
What were these people looking at? This wangfei isn't ugly, so I'll let you look your fill!
Under everyone's gaze, Han Yunxi wasn't timid at all. She raised her chin high, noble, and elegant as she walked gracefully beside Long Fei Ye. Her beauty that could cause the downfall of nations and her otherworldly temperament seemed to gather all the elegance in the world on her body. She and Long Fei Ye were a perfect match, as if they were a match made in heaven.
As they watched, many people's gazes gradually changed, becoming stunned and envious.
A confident woman was always the most beautiful.
The room was very large, so it took them a while to reach the high seats and see the empress dowager. Only then did Han Yunxi realize how young Grand Concubine Yi was. The empress dowager was already a white-haired old woman, while the empress was over 30 years old. The empress dowager was amiable and noble, while the empress was graceful and luxurious. The two women sitting there exuded an aura enough to intimidate the entire imperial harem. This was the unique aura of power and prestige.
"Erchen wishes Imperial Mother good health and Imperial Sister-in-law good fortune." Long Fei Ye saluted and paid his respects.
Han Yunxi bowed and said, "Chenqie wishes Imperial Mother good health and Imperial Sister-in-law good fortune."
"As long as the two of you can get well, I will be in good health! Quickly rise. Servants, give her a seat! "The Empress Dowager was in a good mood and smiled kindly.
As soon as he rose, the concubines on either side of him all stood up and bowed in greeting. "May Your Highness Duke of Qin be at ease and Qin Wangfei be blessed."
The importance of a man was reflected now. A wife's status depended on her husband, right?
Han Yunxi was about to sit down when the Empress Dowager said, "Yunxi, hurry and come here. Let me take a good look at you!"
Han Yunxi finally remembered this familiarity. Back then, her mother had saved the Empress Dowager's life, which was why she was betrothed to Long Fei Ye.
But, old granny empress dowager, is it appropriate for you to betroth your benefactor's daughter to your enemy's son? Who doesn't know that you and Grand Concubine Yi fought fiercely in the past? Now you want to destroy the Han Family because they can't cure the crown prince's illness. Repaying kindness with enmity to this extent is already the worst of the worst. Why be so hypocritical?
Han Yunxi didn't get too close, but the Empress Dowager pulled her to sit next to her. She looked left and right with delight as she sighed with emotion. "Tsk tsk tsk, look at how fresh and fresh she looks. How is such a beautiful person ugly? Which evil creature said she was ugly?! If they find out, I won't let them off easily! "
"When we met when you were young, there seems to be a scar here, right?" the empress asked thoughtfully.
"Is that so? How come I don't remember? Moreover, a woman changes eighteen times between childhood and womanhood! Her mother was a devastatingly beautiful woman. Otherwise, would I have betrothed her to our Duke of Qin before she was even born? "the Empress Dowager said seriously. The empress tactfully shut her mouth.
The Empress Dowager looked towards Long Fei Ye. "Duke of Qin, I didn't cheat you, did I? Why did I betroth such a beauty to you? I heard you didn't kick the sedan chair door yesterday? Is that true? "
Eh … Han Yunxi suddenly realized that Long Fei Ye seemed to be in trouble after visiting the palace.
