Chapter 1902: Making things big
The tribulation clouds slowly gathered above the Royal Palace. It was already considerably gentle as compared to the time back at Sheep City. Even so, it scared the people in the Royal Palace half to death and the expressions of those in the Imperial Capital turned ashen.
“What is going on? How could there be lightning tribulation!” The people in the Imperial Capital looked at those tribulation clouds with horror. They were afraid that they would drift over from the Royal Palace.
And those who were within the Royal Palace were so scared that their legs turned to jelly. If someone was undergoing a tribulation, would they be dragged into it as well?
“Hurry! Hurry up and leave this place!”
Many people ran out as fast as they could, afraid that they would get dragged into the lightning tribulation.
Inside the Royal Palace, the palace maids and guards along with their masters and young masters all ran outside. When they saw the heart of the tribulation clouds, those who were more cowardly fainted right away.
“What is going on?”
“It was perfectly fine before, so how could there be tribulation clouds?”
“That place seems to be the Youthful Palace.”
“Youthful Palace? Isn’t that where the princess who just returned is staying?
“That Sima You Yue, how could she cause such a ruckus the moment she returned!”
“Even the King has gone over, should we take a look as well?”
“We’ll go! I want to see just what this Sima You Yue is thinking
…
Sima You Yue stood on the rooftop and looked down expressionlessly at everyone panicking down below.
Because it was endangering their lives, many people started to gather together. When they saw her, they cried out, “What are you doing?”
Sima You Yue looked at the one who spoke out. It was some random concubine from some palace, not someone she had to bother herself with, so she couldn’t even be bothered to reply.
“The queen is here!” Nobody knew who shouted, but everyone separated to allow a path through, allowing the queen to walk to the front of the crowd.
Sima You Yue saw Ghost Concubine. This was the first time the two met each other. However, they had exchanged many moves in the dark. When they looked at each other, their gazes were filled with murderous intent.
“Sima You Yue, what are you doing? Do you desire to destroy the entire Royal Palace upon your return?”
“How is this a desire to destroy the Royal Palace? I’m merely protecting myself.” Sima You Yue shrugged. “Someone wants to kill me, but I’m weak and all alone. I have no foundations in the palace either, so I have no choice but to protect myself this way.”
“Rubbish! You’ve just arrived in the palace, who would kill you?” Ghost Concubine retorted. Although she really wanted to kill this bitch, she still had to pretend on the surface.
“How could there not be? Yu Xi, bring the person out for everyone to see.” Sima You Yue said. Yu Xi then led out the palace maids and guards of the Youthful Palace. Each and every single one of them were injured, and were still very wounded.
When she saw that Ghost Concubine was about to speak, she spoke first, “These people are all from my palace. There’s no way that you would say that I’m the one who hurt them and am trying to find an excuse to release the lightning tribulation, right? I’m not that bored.”
Ghost Concubine initially wanted to say so, but Sima You Yue said it first, so she couldn’t say it anymore.
“Who is it that wants to kill you? Tell me, I will be the judge. Hurry up and stop the lightning tribulation.” She saw the innocent look on Sima You Yue’s face and wanted to go up and slap him.
“I’m just afraid that Ghost Concubine would not be able to handle it!” Sima You Yue huffed.
“The Royal Palace is still an orderly place. If anyone has really come to make trouble for you, as the master of the palace, I will naturally give a fair judgement.” Ghost Concubine.
“Then I will have to thank you.” Sima You yue bowed to Ghost Concubine before she raised her voice, “There’s no use hiding in the house. The queen has already come, so you can’t bully me anymore.”
Everyone looked towards the courtyard. Only after one minute passed did a few people emerge. When she saw the guards, Ghost Concubine’s heart tightened.
“Grandmother, save me!” Yu Hao saw that the guards were fine so he ran out while yelling at Ghost Concubine.
“Hao’er!” Ghost Concubine saw Yu Hao and cried out with heartache, “What are you doing here?”
“Grandmother, save me!” Yu Hao was scared silly by the lightning tribulation. When he saw Ghost Concubine, he could shout this.
Ghost Concubine waved her hand, Yu Hao flew over to her side and glared at Sima You Yue, yelling, “What have you done to him?”
“See, I told you. There’s no point telling you.” Sima You Yue said with grievance, “What could I do to him! While I was in the side palace hall, he started beating my people up non stop since he came. You’ve already seen the condition that my people are in. However, he doesn’t have a single injury on him.”
Everyone knew Yu Hao’s personality. Sima You Yue killed his father, so he definitely hated her to death. Knowing that she had come to the palace, how could he stop himself from causing trouble for her? Furthermore, spoiled by Ghost Concubine’s love, even if he came to make trouble for her, who would dare to stick their necks out for her? She could only swallow the grievance.
Who would have thought that she would use a method like this to blow up the situation. This way, even if Ghost Concubine wanted to protect Yu Hao, she had no choice. Under everyone’s watchful eye and the fact that it had endangered everyone’s life, unless she was no longer interested in being queen, she would have to punish Yu Hao.
Ghost Concubine saw that her grandchild had been frightened to this extent and her heart ached. She looked at Sima You Yue with eyes filled with hatred.
“Men, lock His Highness in the dark palace.” Ghost Concubine ordered. Immediately some men stepped forward to take Yu Hao away.
“Grandmother, I don’t want to go to the dark palace!” Yu Hao grabbed onto her hand, “Grandmother, you are so powerful. You can just kill this bitch!”
“Nonsense!” Ghost Concubine pulled Yu Hao’s hand away and ordered, “Take His Highness away!”
Yu Hao wanted to say something more, but he saw Ghost King suddenly appear beside Ghost Concubine, so he dared not say anything else as he left obediently. Before he left, he gave Sima You Yue a final glance, mouthing to her that this was not over.
Sima You Yue didn’t even feel like looking at him. If not because she wanted to avoid trouble, she wouldn’t care about him at all.
“Alright, he’s already been punished, so can you stop this now?” Ghost Concubine grit her teeth in anger. It was her precious baby but she actually had to punish him because of this tiny matter. She really wanted to tear her into pieces!
“Is sending him to the dark palace considered a punishment?” Sima You Yue looked at her with puzzlement.
“The dark palace is a place where we punish our men. It is incredibly cold and you cannot use your spirit energy to block it. You will also feel hunger like an ordinary person. There is also an illusion array in there. If you get injured in the arry, you will also get injured in real life. However, this will also depend on luck.” Ghost Concubine explained.
Her tone was calm and void of anger. She was not afraid just because of the lightning tribulation.
“He won’t come out on his own, right?” Sima You Yue was highly suspicious of Ghost Concubine’s verbal promise.
“After entering, he cannot leave before the stipulated time is up.” Ghost Concubine explained, “Yu Hao’s sentence is three days.”
“Rumble-” The rolling tribulation clouds reminded everyone that they were still here.
“First stop that thing.” Ghost Concubine said.
“About that…” Sima You Yue rubbed her nose sheepishly. When they saw her acting that way, a sense of foreboding rose in everyone’s hearts.
