Princess Anning hurriedly bowed. “Concubine De, my father called Qingqing to play with me. We still have to find my father later, so we’ll be leaving first.” After saying this, she pulled Jian Qingqing and quickly ran away, leaving Concubine De’s face alternating between green and red.

As the most favored Princess by the Emperor’s side, she had the right to not have to look at Concubine De’s face.

It was not until they had run far away and had already run out of the imperial garden that the two of them stopped panting and smiled at each other.

Only after they had escaped Concubine De’s line of sight did the two of them slowly begin to walk around the vast imperial palace.

Princess Anning ridiculed, “Concubine De is very terrifying, isn’t she?”

Although Jian Qingqing did not want to speak ill of others, she could not help but nod her head.

Seeing that someone had agreed with her, Princess Anning could not help but spit out all the thoughts she had hidden in her heart toward Concubine De.

In the past, she did not have any companions of the same age, and it was not appropriate for her to speak ill of her companions. Every time she spoke to her mother, she had to teach her not to speak ill of her elders.

Therefore, with Jian Qingqing as a good sister who did not have to worry about her status, Princess Anning finally had a place to vent all the grievances in her heart.

“Don’t you know that Concubine De is simply arrogant and despotic in the palace? She doesn’t even put her mother in her eyes. She always wants her son, my Third Imperial Brother, to snatch the position of Crown Prince from my Imperial Brother. Didn’t you know that her son is a good-for-nothing who is worthy of being compared to my Imperial Brother? She often beats and scolds the palace servants in the palace. My father has scolded her many times, but she hasn’t changed. If it weren’t for her father being a great general and her father protecting Great Wei, she might have been abandoned by my father a long time ago.”

Although Princess Anning was innocent and kind, and the Empress had protected her very well, she had grown up in this man-eating palace and had been influenced by many things.

Jian Qingqing listened silently at the side and did not say much. Regarding the matters of the royal family, she had to be very careful and cautious. Otherwise, she might lose her head at any time.

Fortunately, Princess Anning did not need her to respond. It was just that she had not spoken these heartfelt words to anyone for a long time and wanted to find someone to talk to.

However, once she said this, she could not stop.

“Do you know who imperial Concubine De hates the most?” Princess Anning asked mysteriously.

Jian Qingqing made a curious expression at the right time.

Princess Anning was satisfied. She quietly said, “It’s cousin Zhiyan!’ Jian Qingqing was shocked.

She immediately put on an expression as if she was eating a melon. She pricked up her ears and listened attentively. Even her footsteps slowed down.

“Her family had a nephew who somehow offended cousin Zhiyan. Then, he killed him. At that time, she and her family were still arguing with her father to get justice. They also wanted her father to kill cousin Zhiyan. Later on, for some unknown reason, she didn’t mention this matter. In the end, it was settled. However, she hated cousin and always wanted to find fault with him.”

Jian Qingqing subconsciously said, “Then it must be her nephew’s fault. Big

Brother Ming would never kill someone for no reason.”

Princess Anning nodded her head in agreement. “I think so too. But after that, I heard that cousin Zhiyan’s reputation was ruined. There were many people scolding him outside.”

“It’s fine. It will get better. I believe that in the future, when everyone mentions him, they will think that he is a very good person. Look at him now. He is going to be the Minister of Revenue. He is a high official in charge of the people’s food and clothing. If he does well, he will definitely have a good reputation..”
