Leng Xiao's eyes were very cold, "You are not anyone of the prince. Keeping you or expelling you is just a matter of my words. But if you need a sense of ceremony and a letter of divorce, that is also very easy. , I will immediately ask someone to find His Highness and write you a letter."
"You...how dare you?" Hong Lingling was really frightened, "His Highness would never do this to me. How could he offend the Hong family for your words?"
"Is the Hong family a big shot? Can't afford to offend?" Leng Xiao sneered, "Let me ask you again, should she go or should you go?"
Hong Lingling felt that if she gave in now, it would be even less possible for her to stand firm in the future. She straightened her back immediately and said, "If she doesn't leave, I won't leave either. I have done nothing wrong and should not leave."
The nun behind Hong Lingling also said: "Crown Princess, Liang Yuan is a concubine of the third rank. If you, the Crown Princess, are allowed to throw her away at your will, how can there be any ancestral etiquette at all?"
"Don't use rituals to pressure me. I have the final say in the East Palace." Leng Xiao didn't say much to them and asked Wen Zhu to call the Qinglong Guards in. He watched them pack their things and leave. If they didn't leave, throw them out.
Hong Lingling became stubborn and said angrily: "If you want me to leave, just ask the prince to come down. I want him to tell me personally."
Leng Xiao said: "Wen Zhu, ask Mr. Wei to go and tell Academician Hong that the East Palace will immediately send Miss Hong back to the mansion and return the intact jade to Zhao."
The sentence of "returning the original jade to Zhao" made Hong Lingling feel filled with grief and anger. But when she saw that the Qinglong Guards had already escorted the people around her to pack their things, and their actions were rough, she knew that no matter what happened in the end, if she was sent out of the palace today, she would definitely become a laughing stock.
She looked at Leng Xiao, who had already turned around and left.
Hong Lingling said anxiously: "Wait a moment."
Leng Xiao turned around and looked at her with cold eyes, "How is it?"
Hong Lingling's tears of humiliation fell from her cheeks, and she trembled with grief and anger, "Why does the Crown Princess humiliate me like this?"
Leng Xiao had no expression on his face and said: "Since you two entered the East Palace, I have never been in trouble with you. You didn't inform me today. You knocked A Tuan unconscious and took the emperor's grandson and the eldest son away without permission. You didn't take me This Crown Princess takes it seriously and uses my child to win favor, which challenges my bottom line, so it's not me who wants to humiliate you, it's you who brings humiliation to yourself."
Hong Lingling was exposed and swallowed back her tears. She gritted her teeth and defended, "I'm not trying to win favor. I just like the emperor's grandson. Thinking that the child likes sweet cakes, I took them for him to try. Nothing else." thought."
"If you like him and want to treat him to cakes, you can send someone to Zhanyue Residence instead of taking him away secretly. Can you convince yourself of these excuses?"
Facing Leng Xiao's cold aura, Hong Lingling couldn't help but weaken a little, "Even so, the Crown Princess can't drive me out of the East Palace."
Wen Zhu said: "The Crown Princess had no intention of driving away Liang Yuan. She just wanted to drive away the cook. She was punished with a small punishment and a big warning. It was Liang Yuan who came here."
Hong Lingling was furious and rushed towards Wenzhu, and shouted sternly: "Shut up, do you have the right to speak?"
Leng Xiao's face darkened, and just as he was about to speak, Hong Lingling had already turned around and said, "Mammy, pack your things and leave the palace. I won't leave. Unless His Highness speaks, I will never leave the East Palace."
The cook, who was being detained by the Qinglong Guards, immediately turned pale when she heard Liang Yuan's words, "Yes!"
Hong Lingling turned to look at Leng Xiao and sneered sadly and angrily, "Don't you just want me to bow my head? Are you satisfied?"
