"The Empress Dowager manages the heavens and the earth, and now she even meddles in the affairs of the unmarried daughters of the Xia Family! This Young Master is truly enlightened today! Later, This Young Master will visit the palace to ask the Emperor what else the Empress Dowager intends to control. Even if the Empress Dowager really wants to intervene, at the very least, she should find a reliable lackey to avoid causing more trouble than good!"
A cold and arrogant voice mocked, its clear tone instantly resonating throughout the courtyard.
Huxin looked towards the red figure that swayed into the hall, feeling puzzled. What did Xuan Yuan Ling's appearance mean this time?
"Xuan Yuan Heir! Who do you call a lackey?" Consort Mei's expression changed upon hearing Xuan Yuan Ling's words. She trembled with anger but dared not confront Xuan Yuan Ling directly. The scene of the Mad Prince going insane a few years ago was still fresh in her mind, sending chills down her spine. As for Xuan Yuan Ling, it was best not to provoke him.
Xuan Yuan Ling remained clad in fiery red attire, his tall figure exuding an air of arrogance and coldness. As he walked into the front hall, he winked at Huxin, seemingly conveying that as long as he was here, no one could take her away!
"This Young Master has made himself quite clear; does Consort Mei still have questions? Why don't you ask that silly little maid beside you if she understood This Young Master's words? You still don't get it! I truly doubt how you managed to become a consort with such a brain!" Xuan Yuan Ling showed no regard for Consort Mei's feelings, scoffing disdainfully before casually sitting down in the seat opposite her.
Consort Mei's face shifted between shades of blue and white; her earlier noble demeanor had completely vanished.
"Xuan Yuan Heir, I am here on the Empress Dowager's orders to bring Xia Huxin into the palace for questioning! You insult me, which is an insult to the Empress Dowager! Insulting the Empress Dowager is an insult to the Emperor! Do you want me to report your words to the Empress Dowager?" Consort Mei took a moment to compose herself, gritting her teeth as she glared at Xuan Yuan Ling.
Yet her eyes momentarily revealed a hint of confusion.
If it weren't for Xuan Yuan Ling's past madness, he would truly be an unparalleled beauty rivaling Jing Tian'ao! With his striking features and commanding presence, Consort Mei, despite being one of the four consorts in the harem, was actually favored the least among them. The Emperor's granting her the title of Consort Mei was merely out of respect for the Liang Family!
Consort Mei rarely saw the Emperor and had no children of her own. Now seeing Xuan Yuan Ling stepping forward for Huxin only intensified her jealousy.
Xuan Yuan Ling paid no attention to Consort Mei's words; his bright gaze was fixed on Huxin, momentarily captivated by her beauty.
Yesterday, when I saw her in the Imperial Garden, she was dressed in luxurious clothing but was covered in dirt and wrinkled. Her hair was disheveled, and her complexion was pale. However, today she appeared in a simple yet elegant blue satin dress that fit her perfectly, her slender figure light and graceful. Her simple twisted bun was elegant and refined, adorned with a blue jade hairpin, the deep blue luster accentuating her calm and casual demeanor, making her seem even more serene and detached.
Xuan Yuan Ling looked at Huxin, momentarily forgetting to look away.
Huxin felt uncomfortable under his gaze and shifted her attention to the pale-faced Consort Mei.
"Huxin wants to ask Consort Mei whose orders you came here on today?" Facing the knife-wielding guards surrounding her, Huxin remained composed and dignified.
If Huxin hadn't spoken up in time, Xuan Yuan Ling might have already taken action against the guards surrounding him. Now hearing Huxin speak, Xuan Yuan Ling slowly retracted the silver needles hidden in his sleeves, narrowing his eyes slightly to see what she would do next.
Consort Mei had been troubled about how to deal with Xuan Yuan Ling but felt relieved when she heard Huxin take the initiative to speak. Naturally, Consort Mei thought Huxin would be much easier to handle than the crazed Xuan Yuan Ling. She snorted coldly, one hand touching her gilded Fake Nails, and glanced at Huxin with disdain.
"You must be scared silly! I made it very clear that I came on the orders of the Empress Dowager."
