Transmigration: How to Allure a Man

"May the empress spare my life, this concubine knows she's wronged. This concubine doesn't dare covet the empress's position anymore, please forgive me, esteemed empress."

Qing Qing waved her hand. She then grabbed a few of Consort De's servants and left in an orderly manner.

"Very well, since you are so obedient, the Great Buddha Temple will not accept you."

From a first rank Consort De to a fifth rank concubine, this punishment was already considered heavy. Qing Qing knew how to accept a punishment when she saw it. After all, Consort De still had the Southern Marquis Residence behind her.

Just as he was about to ask someone to send Consort De back, he heard a sharp voice, "Your majesty the emperor has arrived!"

Qing Qing felt a little strange. Although the imperial court hadn't been thrown into chaos because of Duanmu Yu Ming and Ruyang Wang, it still had some influence over the situation. Why had he come to her house instead of discussing politics with the court officials?

Compared to the pure and strange Consort De who was kneeling on the ground, she was extremely excited. Her gloomy eyes were as bright as pearls in an instant.

Duanmu Yuling hadn't even stepped into the palace when he saw Consort De who was kneeling on the floor suddenly stand up and ruffle her hair, shouting, "Esteemed Empress, please spare me! Your concubine knows that the Empress doesn't like her concubine, but your concubine really doesn't have the heart to go overboard."

When Qing Qing saw Consort De's expression, she didn't allow anyone to stop him and allowed him to run in front of Duanmu Huanghun. She even thought that Consort De had really come to beg for forgiveness. Her acting skills were practically perfect. However, her actions would only make her die faster.

With no one stopping her, Consort De quickly caught sight of Duanmu Yu Ling and fell to the ground in panic, pretending to be being chased. "Your Majesty, esteemed empress, she …" Halfway through his words, he stopped in time.

Duanmu Yuling looked down at the dejected Consort De in front of him, his face expressionless. He didn't even ask her why she was shouting. He walked around Consort De with an indifferent expression and headed straight inside.

Consort De was stunned. She didn't understand what Duanmu Yuling meant by this. She wrapped her arms around his legs to stop him from moving forward. "Your majesty, your concubine was wronged. Your majesty doesn't help your concubine seek justice?"

Duanmu Yu Ling shook his leg, wanting to shake off Consort De's hand, but Consort De insisted on finding an explanation from him, so he didn't shake her off after a few attempts.

"Think about what you've done, and stop bothering us."

Consort De's face paled as she forced herself to remain calm, "Your Majesty, concubine doesn't understand what you're saying." "But it's true that the empress wants to subdue her concubine and use her as a shield. Does the emperor want to shield her?"

Duanmu Huanghun's hands tightened into fists, then he slowly released them and said, "Men, tie Consort De up. After I leave, I'll leave it to the empress to handle."

Qing Qing was leaning against the door of the hall, listening to Duanmu Yu Ling's orders. She pursed her lips, thinking, "This Consort De is also a fool. Previously, she and Duanmu Yu Ming had had such a huge fight. Almost everyone knew this. Now they're not thinking carefully about how to get rid of her and instead frame her."

"This concubine greets Your Majesty."

Duanmu Yu Ling quickly caught up to her and asked with a smile, "Does the empress have dinner?"

Qing Qing replied, "I used a bit with my mother. If the emperor hasn't used it yet, let this consort use a bit more for you."

Duanmu Huanghun took her hand and felt a sense of satisfaction he had never felt before. "Then come with me."

Qing Qing smiled and moved closer to Duanmu Yuling, reminding him, "Your majesty, there are still people here. You're the emperor, so you can't call yourself me."

Duanmu Yu Ling glanced at the people around him. "They know what to say and what not to say." Finished speaking, he dragged Qing Qing and walked towards the inner hall, not caring about the servants who were so frightened by him that they kneeled on the ground.
