Unexpectedly, as soon as Ji Wanrong said these words, Xing Su burst into laughter.
Not only her, but many ladies present also laughed mercilessly when they heard Ji Wanrong's words.
"She! She is a calamity star, who is she trying to show off by pretending to be a ghost?"
"It's fine if you don't have any knowledge, but some people take it as a matter of fact that they don't have any knowledge. At first glance, they look like they are young people who have never seen the world!"
"Who would believe what Disaster Star says? Is she crazy?"
Mo Jiecheng frowned after hearing these words, grabbed Ji Wanrong's wrist, and led her towards the palace.
Ji Wanrong was stunned by his rough movements and staggered a few steps.
After entering the palace gate, there is a long and narrow palace road.
When Zhou Zhiruo saw the scene in front of him, he hurriedly took a few steps forward, followed Ji Wanrong, and spoke to comfort him.
"Rong'er, don't care what others say. Those who don't know are not guilty. You just don't know."
Ji Wanrong paused and turned to look at Zhou Zhiruo: "Zhiruo, don't you believe what I said?"
Zhou Zhiruo listened, glanced at Ji Wanrong, pursed his lips, and spoke hesitantly.
"It's not that I don't believe it, it's just that what you said is really unlikely to happen. It can even be said to be a taboo. Fortunately, King Han did not blame it."
Ji Wanrong was stunned for a moment and turned to look at Mo Jiecheng. What he saw was Mo Jiecheng's clear jawline.
He had a sullen face and no expression on his face.
"Why can't it happen? And why is it such a taboo?" Ji Wanrong asked with a frown.
"Because Xing Su is a relative of the Queen Mother, and she specially takes care of her." Zhou Zhiruo glanced at Mo Jiecheng, who was expressionless, and spoke carefully every word.
Oh, it turned out to be another related household.
Only then did Ji Wanrong understand Xing Su's arrogance.
"No matter what happens to Xing Su or her family, the Queen Mother will definitely protect them. However, their whole family relies on the Queen Mother, but they have no real power and cannot commit any crime to wipe out the nine races."
"And if we count strictly, the Queen Mother is also among her nine clans. What you just said actually offended the Queen Mother."
As long as the Queen Mother lives for one day, the Su family can be kept safe and sound.
To put it bluntly, even if the Queen Mother went there, for the sake of the Queen Mother, the emperor would not do anything to the whole Xingsu family if nothing major happened.
However, the whole Xingsu clan does not have real power, so it is impossible for them to do anything rebellious, and it is impossible for the nine clans to be implicated.
Ji Wanrong felt a little strange.
But she has this confidence, her facial expressions are correct, and her premonitions are correct.
What happened to Xing Su must be a major event that affected the nine clans and the royal family.
But if her family does not hold real power and Xing Su is serving the Queen Mother, then the only thing she can harm... is the Queen Mother's safety.
If it harmed the Queen Mother, the emperor would never let her stay.
And if she kills the Queen Mother, then the nine clans will be wiped out.
Thinking of this, Ji Wanrong felt a sense of crisis in his heart.
She hurriedly turned her head in the direction of Mo Jie City, with a hint of expectation in her heart: "Mo Jie City, I predicted before that you would encounter a bloody disaster, and it came true."
"And it's the same this time. Xing Su is very likely to harm the Queen Mother, and Chai Huo will end up wiping out all nine tribes. Do you believe me?"
After her words fell, there was a moment of silence. Ji Wanrong felt that this silence was unusually long.
Immediately afterwards, Ji Wanrong saw Mo Jiecheng closing his eyes, and his voice was cold: "I only take this as your word, and I have never said it before."
What he meant was that he didn't believe what she said.
He never believed a word she said either.
Ji Wanrong listened, raised his eyes, and saw Gu Mingyue's proud face.
She stood behind Mo Jiecheng, raising her chin slightly, her face full of contempt for her.
Ji Wanrong pursed her lips, feeling a little funny for no reason, and said nothing more.
Zhou Zhiruo naturally saw Gu Mingyue's triumphant look. She silently stepped forward and held Ji Wanrong's hand tightly.
Ji Wanrong said no more, and the others remained silent until they walked to the queen's palace.
The Queen's Kunning Palace is low-key and restrained. There are not many people serving the palace in the inner courtyard, and the decoration is very simple. But the simple decoration has a low-key luxury feeling.
Ji Wanrong has always felt that the furnishings and decoration of a house are inseparable from the owner's personality.
A person's personality can be gleaned from where she lives, and the same is probably true for the Queen.
Ji Wanrong thought, several people had already reached the door of the house, and heard several female voices chirping, seemingly chatting.
Queen, many people came to Kunning Palace today.
Ji Wanrong followed Mo Jiecheng and entered the main hall. The eunuch's report was heard in the room, and the original chatter and laughter gradually became smaller.
As soon as he stepped into the Queen's Kunning Palace, he could feel a strong sense of oppression, which made people feel a little breathless. Ji Wanrong lowered his head and lowered his eyes, looking at the people in the palace with his peripheral vision.
The decoration in the hall is exquisite and elegant, and the two sides of the hall are filled with people according to their positions.
The queen was sitting on the main seat, wearing regular clothes and a simple rose gold hairpin on her head. She always had a smile on her lips and looked gentle and generous.
Although she only wore simple clothes, she had the air of a mistress of a country.
Concubine Li is sitting on the left side of the queen, and the tall woman with deep features sitting on the right side of the queen is also wearing the uniform of a concubine and looks like she comes from a foreign land.
The tall woman with deep features and gorgeous clothes was a princess from Mongolia. After the queen, she gave birth to the second prince in the palace. When the prince came of age, he was named King Duan and made Mongolia surrender. In Beili, he served the country of Beili with the hard work of dogs and horses.
Mongolia's loyalty, coupled with the fact that King Duan led his husband to give birth to the emperor's eldest grandson, made her status in the palace increase day by day, so she was now named Concubine Hua, on an equal footing with Concubine Li.
It was due to their personalities that the two concubines sitting next to the queen were all dressed up grandly, well-dressed and well-maintained. However, despite this, the queen, who was simply dressed, was never outdone by them.
"My sons and ministers see their mother and queen."
"Wei Chen/I, my daughter, see the Queen."
Feeling the people's probing eyes scanning his body, Ji Wanrong followed Mo Jiecheng calmly to salute and say hello.
"Jiecheng, get up, everyone, get up."
The queen first asked Mo Jiecheng to stand up with a smile, and then asked the others to stand up.
Her eyes lingered on Ji Wanrong.
"Jie Cheng was injured and it was inconvenient for me to leave the palace. Now that I see that Jie Cheng is fine, I feel relieved." The queen smiled.
As soon as she finished speaking, someone took over.
"Yes, I haven't seen you for a long time. The last time I saw the eldest prince was on the night of his wedding. The eldest prince happily got married that night. It was originally a God-given marriage, but this marriage has become like this. It’s really unimaginable.”
Concubine Hua, who was sitting nearby, shook her fan, stared at Ji Wanrong's face, and spoke lazily.
"I still remember the smile from the heart on the eldest prince's face on the night of his wedding, but now I can't see it at all."
She smiled and turned to look at Princess Duan who was standing next to her. Princess Duan also smiled in response.
"Some people use their own selfish motives to break up a couple of golden boys and girls. When I encounter such a thing, I feel so distressed that I sigh. Who else can laugh!"
Mo Jiecheng stood in the middle of the hall, his whole body tensing up when he thought of the humiliation and deception he suffered that night.
