    n Yuwen redirected her sharpness towards Lin Sisi.


    “I didn’t vite any pce rules. It seems like you think you know the pce rules very well!” Lin Sisi couldn’t stand Han Yuwen’s arrogant demeanor in the imperial pce of the Great Cheng Dynasty, acting as if it were her own home. “Insolent! What is your status, you talk to me like that?” Han Yuwen mmed the table in anger. “Empress, are the women from your country all such arrogant and domineering things?”


    “You’re the insolent one! Standing in the imperial pce of the Great Cheng Dynasty and insulting my imperial consort, who do you think you are!”


    Chu Jinling quickly walked out, positioning himself beside Lin Sisi in a protective stance. It was evident that Han Yuwen was not insulting anyone else but his Ninth Imperial Consort!


    “Imperial Consort.”


    Han Yuwen sneered. She didn’t even spare a nce for the princess of the Great Cheng Dynasty, let alone an imperial consort.


    “Cousin, Miss Lin hasn’t married you yet. You don’t have to be so eager,” Xiao Ruxue said, seemingly offering good intentions.


    Han Yuwen instantly grasped the situation. “Not married yet, and she already considers herself an imperial consort. With this noble status, does she think she can save someone who vites pce rules?”


    She turned to the empress. “1 didn’t know. So, the empress manages the harem and nobledies with such attitudes. Your Majesty, you’ve worked hard.”


    Her words struck a nerve with the empress. Anyone with a good rtionship with Su Yingxue was her enemy, and now, Lin Sisi hade forward!


    “Men, Lin Sisi disrespects me, shows contempt towards me, punish her!”


    The empress scolded with a stern face.


    Chu Jinling swiftly protected Lin Sisi. “Don’t hit my wife!”


    He turned and red at Xiao Ruxue. “Whether she’s married or not, Sisi is my wife. No need for others to meddle!”


    Xiao Ruxue scolded publicly, blushing with embarrassment.


    Chu Jinling’s protective stance for Lin Sisi meant opposing the empress. To uphold her dignity, the empress would surely target him.


    In a moment of desperation, Chu Jinling struck one of the empress’s servants. The empress immediately used, “Chu Jinling, are you rebelling?”


    “I… I’m not! But 1 won’t allow anyone to hurt my wife!”


    Chu Jinling encircled Lin Sisi, shouting at the empress, “If you want to hit someone, hit me. Don’t touch my wife!”


    “Jinling, stop fooling around. It’s okay if I get hit. I’m tough.” Lin Sisi nudged him, urging him to return to his seat.


    Chu Jinling pouted. “No! You’re my wife. If someone hits you, it means I’m useless. My mother said a man who can’t protect his own woman is the most useless!”


    Noble Consort Xiao felt a headache when Chu Jinling brought up this matter.


    This incident stemmed from Su Yingxue, but Han Yuwen was the reason.


    She could only look at Han Yuwen and say with a smile, “I’ve always heard that Princess Yuwen manages Qi State’s national treasury. I’m from the Xiao family, and we have a lot of business with Qi State. I heard recently that a ship loaded with goods is about to be shipped to Qi State. I wonder if there will be any idents on the way.”


    Han Yuwen’s eyes darkened upon hearing this. She gritted her teeth, secretly resenting Lin Sisi for letting Noble Consort Xiao intervene!


    The business was more crucial than venting anger..
