The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day-Chapter 852 - 436: An Ning Shows Bai Mowan Who’s Boss (First Update)
Spring days are warm, the breeze gentle, the sunlight dazzling.
The back garden of the Imperial Palace.
Such wonderful scenery and weather are truly unsuitable for their meeting.
All this spring beauty wasted.
An Ning coldly and indifferently looked at Bai Mowan towering before her.
In the original text, Bai Mowan and Xiao Jinxing being together marks the end of the plot.
Only speaking of the Daxuan Kingdom’s prosperity and peace.
The emperor of the Daxuan Kingdom sets up a harem but exclusively favors Empress Bai Mowan alone.
The current storyline is merely.
A harem established but exclusively favors Imperial Concubine Bai Mowan, it’s just the difference in title and position.
Yet all feel that Bai Mowan looks like a resentful wife.
"How dare you! Upon seeing our Imperial Concubine, should you not pay respects!" Zixia, the palace maid by Bai Mowan’s side, loudly rebuked.
An Ning just gave a cold smile, speaking indifferently, "Are you sure that I need to pay respects to the Imperial Concubine?"
Previously, it was enough that Xiao Jinxing was unaware of her identity.
Now that he’s aware.
She is thus Xiao Jinxing’s Empress, the Empress of the Daxuan Kingdom.
Even if she sincerely doesn’t wish to acknowledge or care.
But facing Bai Mowan’s excessive aggression, already here with pent-up anger.
Why should she suffer Bai Mowan’s threats.
"How dare you! To call yourself ’I’ in front of the Imperial Concubine!" Zixia was so angry her face turned red.
The palace maids and eunuchs beside An Ning were trembling in fear.
Everyone knows that in the harem, without an Empress, the Imperial Concubine ranks highest.
The Emperor never interferes with harem affairs, everything is ruled by the Imperial Concubine.
Now, the Empress provoked the Imperial Concubine on her first day in the palace, the days hereafter...
Palace maids and eunuchs dared not speak.
"Whether I dare to call myself ’I’..." An Ning coldly eyed Zixia.
Zixia was so intimidated by the aura in An Ning’s gaze that her heart skipped a beat.
She clenched her teeth.
No matter what, the Imperial Concubine ranks highest in the harem.
Even if she earns more favor from the Emperor, it’s still disrespectful.
She maintains a calm facade, resolute.
"That’s for the Emperor to decide, not for you to bark here!" An Ning replied coldly, her presence commanding.
Intimidating Zixia into silence.
Bai Mowan’s expression worsened as she looked at An Ning.
Glancing at her useless servant, she turned to An Ning, maintaining her superior demeanor, "What? You think that being brought into the palace by the Emperor means you truly ascended to greatness?"
Her words full of sarcasm towards An Ning.
"A mere commoner, yet daring to call yourself ’I’! Even if the Emperor breaks protocol and enfeoffs you as a concubine, you must kneel and pay respects upon seeing ’I’!" Bai Mowan, furious, spoke with such force that the surrounding palace maids and eunuchs dared not breathe.
Finally, a young palace maid beside An Ning could not resist, bravely whispered a trembling reminder in An Ning’s ear, "Empress, within the harem, the Imperial Concubine ranks highest, you must pay respects to the Imperial Concubine."
An Ning chuckled lightly, "Who says, the Imperial Concubine ranks highest? Is the Empress there for nothing?!"
"...." Disrespectful as it may be.
Yet she dared insult the Empress.
The palace maids and eunuchs accompanying An Ning felt their deaths near.
Finally chosen to serve the Empress, brought in personally by the Emperor from outside the palace, initially thinking they could lead prosperous lives through the Empress, but now, all hope shattered.
"Enough!" Bai Mowan was furious, "Don’t think that just because you bear some resemblance to the late Empress, you can usurp her place! I’m telling you, your entrance into the palace is indeed due to your looks, but it doesn’t mean you can rely on them to act recklessly! The Emperor merely feels indebted to the Empress and wants to compensate by bringing you into the palace, granting you glory and wealth, not that he truly cares for you! You had better understand your place, you are merely a substitute, once the Emperor realizes, you’ll be beneath even a dog!"
An Ning coldly smiled.
Utterly unmoved by Bai Mowan’s anger.
At this moment, she didn’t want to waste time on Bai Mowan.
She’d rather hurry to see An Youyou.
An Youyou alone in the palace for such a long time, she worried about An Youyou living poorly.
"My status, you can ask the Emperor! I trust the Emperor will give you a satisfying answer."
After saying this.
An Ning walked directly past Bai Mowan.
"Stop!" Bai Mowan fiercely called after her, "Don’t think you can use the Emperor against me!"
An Ning no longer responded, not wasting another word on Bai Mowan.
She walked away directly.
The palace maids and eunuchs beside her were stunned with fear.
This Empress from the outside must be audacious.
Upon arrival, she gave the Imperial Concubine a firm rebuke.
Furthermore, telling the Imperial Concubine to ask the Emperor, obviously the Emperor currently favors the Empress, for he wouldn’t have had Minister Wu escort her if he didn’t. Now if the Imperial Concubine goes to the Emperor, it clearly shows her lack of magnanimity, in the end, it is the Imperial Concubine’s fault.
The newly arrived Empress seems not at all simple!
Bai Mowan furiously watched An Ning’s departing figure.
From behind, she looked exactly like Ye Qichi!
How could she tolerate such a person appearing constantly before Xiao Jinxing.
How could she tolerate such a person perched above her.
Yet at this moment, the woman’s aura inexplicably forced her to endure.
Of course, thinking of the collision happening on the Emperor’s first day bringing the woman to the palace, he’d surely think she had been deliberately difficult.
Thinking of the scheme An Youyou, that little wench, pulled a few days ago, she naturally became more cautious of this woman.
Considering the daughter’s tactics were formidable, the mother couldn’t be far different.
Bai Mowan watched angrily as An Ning swaggered away.
This day’s frustration.
And the grudge from the day An Youyou schemed.
She would surely demand repayment!
...
An Ning didn’t acknowledge Bai Mowan’s fury.
With her understanding of Bai Mowan, Bai Mowan absolutely wouldn’t act impulsively now.
She wouldn’t be stupid enough to provoke the Emperor now and bring trouble onto herself.
Therefore she would likely endure this.
At best, she might complain to Xiao Jinxing afterward.
She longed for Bai Mowan to do so.
Preferably anger Xiao Jinxing into removing her from the palace.
An Ning pondered.
Only to hear the palace maid beside her respectfully speak, "Empress, this is Xiaoxiang Palace, the palace prepared by the Emperor especially for you, Princess Youyou lives inside, and will reside here together with you henceforth."
"Mm," An Ning nodded.
Her heart was somewhat moved.
More than half a month since they last met.
Wondering how that little mischief-maker An Youyou fared in the palace?
Whether missing her and Luming led to eating less and losing some weight.
Thinking such thoughts.
An Ning walked inside.
Upon entering, she heard An Youyou’s lively voice, "I want to eat that chicken wing, yes, the biggest one!"
