After marrying a sickly and powerful official, Jiaojiao cries every day

Wen Ranyan met her gaze head-on, as if he was listening to a storyteller, calm and at ease, full of interest.

The warm sun shone on her lazy body, her posture was lazy, and her tone was casual: "I don't even know what crime I have committed. The Queen Mother has been indifferent to the trivial affairs of the harem for many years. If she can still do so today, we can live in peace and enjoy our old age. How wonderful it would be?"

"Now, you are doing this because you are afraid that the position of the Queen Mother is in danger and the power of the Queen Mother is meaningless, so you are in a panic and come to me to show off your power and get back your face."

"But didn't the Queen Mother know that I am not someone you can easily mess with? I'm afraid you've found the wrong person for your demonstration today. Not only will it cause trouble for yourself, but it may even backfire."

Wen Ranyan persuaded with a smile, although it was not pleasant to hear, it was also a good thing to say.

The Queen Mother felt as if a poisonous thorn had pierced into her, tearing open all the worries and fears in her heart and revealing them to the public without leaving any trace, leaving her with completely humiliated.

Her expression changed unpredictably, and finally, she angrily scolded: "Wen, you are so bold, today I will definitely teach you what respect and inferiority are, and what are the rules."

"Oh?"

Wen Ranyan looked over, her eyes full of smiles, so bright that they dazzled the eyes.

She was still sitting lazily, her gorgeous clothes fitting her slender waist, her skirt embroidered with golden butterflies was still when she sat, yet still captivating. Her eyes were sparkling, her face was more beautiful than snow, and under all the majesty she showed no sign of stealing, and she was composed as if she was in control of the overall situation.

When she met her smiling eyes, the empress dowager felt an inexplicable chill coming over her, penetrating into her bones.

She was stunned, feeling provoked, and couldn't help but raise her voice: "Wen, kneel down!"

Wen Ranyan sat motionless in her seat. She leisurely tasted a piece of candied fruit and took a sip of tea, completely ignoring the empress dowager's admonitions and orders.

This kind of silent contempt is more heart-wrenching than a shrew's angry scolding.

The empress dowager's face turned pale. The rebukes were like a punch on cotton. They were light and did not hurt anyone, but they suffocated her.

Wen Ranyan put down the teacup, laughing, and slowly added fuel to the fire, "But I'm afraid the Queen Mother can't bear my kneeling. She's already this old, why bother with this, be careful not to shorten her life."

These words were undoubtedly a challenge to the royal authority and an embarrassment to the Queen Mother.

After hearing this, the Queen Mother was furious: "Mrs. Wen is speaking against me. Come, slap me in the face—"

"Madam, I'm offended."

The nanny who had been smiling and kind just now now had a changed expression. She rolled up her sleeves, looked ferocious, and walked quickly forward, ready to slap someone in the face.

In the flash of lightning, a slender white hand gently grasped the nanny's wrist.

The grip seemed as light as a feather, but the force was as heavy as a thousand pounds. No matter how hard the nanny struggled, she couldn't get away. Soon, she was gritting her teeth in pain and her cheeks turned red.

The empress dowager widened her eyes in astonishment. She was clearly a person as slender as a willow branch, how could she be so strong?

"I really don't want to embarrass a frail old woman, but the slap is about to hit me in the face, so how can I not fight back?" Wen Ranyan sighed softly, and looked embarrassed again, "Since you insist on not wanting this hand, then don't ask for it."

There was an unconcealable cruelty in the gentle and tender voice. Under the horrified gaze of the nanny, Wen Ranyan gently folded it with her hand.

With a "crack", her wrist was broken.

"what--"

A shrill scream erupted from the nanny's mouth, making the empress dowager beside her turn pale and feel cold all over.

The empress dowager stared at Wen Ranyan, her lips moving with difficulty, and she couldn't utter a word for a long time. It was obvious that she was frightened.

She was obviously just a woman, but she broke a person's hand bones so easily. It would have been fine if she just broke them, but she even smiled as seductively as a demon.

Temptress.

This woman is clearly a witch who brings chaos to the harem. If she is not eliminated, the Beilang Kingdom will be in jeopardy!

"Someone, come and capture this monster for me."

The empress dowager could not hide her fear in her heart. She gave the order in anger, but was afraid that Wen Ranyan had also broken her hand bones, so she stepped back a few steps. However, she accidentally hit her knee on the corner of the table, and she gasped in pain. She completely lost her usual royal majesty.

But after he finished speaking, he could only hear the rustling of wind, but no one came to arrest him.

The Queen Mother frowned and was about to shout again when a male voice as sweet as breaking jade, with a hint of smile, melted into the wind.

"Queen Mother, who do you want to capture?"

A pair of pointed boots with black soles and embroidered dragon patterns came with the wind, and the dark red brocade skirt swayed in the wind. The empress dowager's heart tightened, and she stiffened her body and slowly raised her eyes to look.

Feng Qiwu was tall and slender, with a graceful figure. She looked at the empress dowager with a pair of dark phoenix eyes with a half-smile in her eyes. It seemed as if ice and snow were hidden in her eyes, and it was difficult to tell whether she was happy or angry.

Although the Queen Mother was very wary of him, he was now the Emperor of Beilang after all, and he had to take action to deal with the chaos in the harem caused by the evil woman.

Thinking of this, her eyes lit up as if she had seen a savior, and she was obviously confident. She pointed at Wen Ranyan and said sternly, "Of course we have to take this vixen down. She is disrespectful to her superiors and hurts people. How can such a vicious vixen stay by your side?"

"It is better to capture it quickly to avoid hurting your majesty's dragon body in the future."

As if she had someone backing her up, she felt refreshed after she finished speaking.

Wen Ranyan was still sitting upright in her seat, listening to the empress dowager's harsh words. She smiled nonchalantly and didn't take it to heart at all.

"Even I have to act according to her mood, so why would the empress dowager provoke her?" Feng Qiwu lifted his robe and sat down next to Wen Ranyan. Then, he glanced at the empress dowager as if he was disappointed in her.

The two of them were close together, their clothes touching, and their warmth was transmitted.

The Queen Mother stood there in a daze for a long while. How could the king of a country say such a ridiculous thing?

She glanced at Feng Qiwu, then set her gaze on Wen Ranyan, and felt as if her throat was being strangled by something, making her feel heavy and speechless.

It's ridiculous to be against Tiangang!

Feng Qiwu looked at the stage in the middle of the backyard and asked casually, "Can you sing when you kill a chicken to scare the monkey?"

The Queen Mother frowned in confusion. What kind of opera was that?

Unheard of.

The actors on the stage were already frightened out of their wits, and collapsed to the ground like quails. None of the operas they had learned were about killing a chicken to scare the monkeys. Your Majesty, why do you want to ask?

They didn't dare to guess the emperor's intention, but they heard Feng Qiwu say again: "You can't even sing the song of killing a chicken to scare the monkeys, so let's tear down this stage."

He said this lightly, his eyes showing a gentle smile like the breeze and bright moon, but the depths of his eyes were as dark as ink, filled with dangerous coldness.

The queen mother's face turned pale: "What do you mean, Your Majesty?"

She loved listening to opera the most, but now he couldn't even fit a small stage?

Wen Ranyan had no idea what he was up to, so she glanced at him from the side, her interest growing.

Feng Qiwu looked at her, his smile was affectionate yet unfathomable.

After a moment, he clapped his hands and said, "Bring it here."

In the time it took to drink a cup of tea, Qi Jiuzhu dragged in several corpses. They were all palace maids from the Empress Dowager's palace, and their throats were cut by a sword.

But what was strange was that the eyes of these palace servants were destroyed by sharp weapons, which looked really scary.
