Chapter 1017: Intimidation

“This concubine was only advising you with good intentions,” Noble Lady Ying continued daintily, her shy and delicate look very much revolting the Vassal King Consort of An’nan.

“How preposterous! Does this vassal king consort need your advice, I am also worried about the crown prince consort’s safety, that’s why I…”

“This crown prince consort’s safety doesn’t require your worry.” An icy voice abruptly broke the noisy clamor.

Subsequently, everyone stopped making sounds.

“The Vassal King Consort of An’nan has quite the imposing manner!”

Dressed in white robes, with only the simplest white jade hairpin coiling up a young girl’s bun on her head, Qiao Mu wore a sullen face as she breezily strode over with quiet elegance.

Consort Cheng gaped in slight shock, after which she immediately lowered her eyes submissively.

“Crown Prince Consort,” greeted everyone simultaneously.

After staring with an icy and deliberating gaze at this Vassal King Consort of An’nan who was wearing an ugly expression, Qiao Mu pursed her small mouth into a sneer. “The descendants of the people who assisted the former king in founding the kingdom are out of the ordinary, as expected. Since you can even disregard the king’s beloved concubine, then it may be assumed that the king doesn’t hold that much significance in your heart.”

“Crown Prince Consort, don’t you spout nonsense.” The Vassal King Consort of An’nan nervously wrung the embroidered handkerchief in her hands.

How grave were these words? What did she mean by the king didn’t hold that much significance in their hearts? The meaning being that their Vassal King of An’nan’s Estate could even disregard the king?

For looking down on the king, exterminating a person’s entire family and confiscating their property were only light punishments.

This d*mned little b*tch, each word intended to sow discord! Her sharp tongue really could claim their lives.

If it weren’t for the fact that there were so many people watching, she really wanted to smack this stoic face with her palm!

She truly was too abominable!

These few sentences were able to set off a fury that she could only stifle in her heart.

The Vassal King Consort of An’nan put on a show of clutching her chest, pretending that her heart was suffering from severe pain due to the crown prince consort’s provocation.

Yet Qiao Mu merely scoffed. “Vassal King Consort of An’nan. I advise you best not challenge my bottom line again and again. I am not the kind of flower that you imagine that grows in a greenhouse.”

“Have you heard of the snow territory’s divine flower? This is a very miraculous divine-rank herb that only fully blossoms in areas of extreme cold.”

The little stoic walked over step by step, causing the Vassal King Consort of An’nan’s body to subconsciously tilt backwards.

“Usually, when people approach it, it will not react from the first or second touch. However, when it flares up upon the third touch, it will suddenly spread open all its petals.” Qiao Mu flicked her sleeve lightly, simply performing this subtle and casual motion.

Yet Wu Hongmo’s heart trembled from the shock of Qiao Mu’s detached gaze, and she involuntarily backed away.

“Inside the petals of the graceful snow territory’s divine flower are countless sharp ice thorns. Tsk—”

“And it’ll swallow that person alive. Leaving behind not a bit of remains.” Qiao Mu’s aloof gaze fixated on her. “That scene truly is very beautiful, but I fear that you all are unable to imagine it.”

Everyone simultaneously sucked in a cold breath.

“Vassal King Consort of An’nan, compared to the snow territory’s divine flower, what do you think of this crown prince consort? Are we alike?”

As the cold sweat on her forehead slid down slowly, Wu Hongmo found out that she couldn’t reply at all.

Qiao Mu then announced with a somber expression. “Someone! Thoroughly investigate everyone present and find out who is absent. Immediately give me their names!”

With this order, all the royal concubines and princesses all looked at each other before subconsciously crowding together as they looked bewilderedly at this young, stoic-faced crown prince consort.
