The Emperor really knows how to infuriate people.
The background of Su Fei is worlds apart from hers, yet she never expected that now they would be on equal footing!
Bringing up a dead person to disgust her, it seems that he's truly affected by the matter concerning her cousin.
Her frustration grew even more.
Then she heard Bai Pin speak disdainfully.
"It's just a pity for that sickly Second Prince, who unexpectedly gained an advantage from disaster and became King Han! If you ask me, he's not even worthy to hold our Third Prince's shoes!"
"What? King Han?"
Yi Fei blurted out, her eyes filled with disbelief.
Bai Pin was quite surprised. She glanced at the attendant Ru Huan beside her, who was also frowning.
Inside, she silently blamed them.
How could they not know such big news? How could Yi Fei be unaware of such an important matter!
For her to be the one to speak out and make a fuss, it really was a stroke of bad luck.
But right now, she could only steel herself and step forward to speak.
"Yes, the Second Prince has been granted the title of King Han, and the Emperor has also bestowed Yunzhou as his fief. Although Yunzhou is in the northern region and is not a wealthy place, he has still seized the opportunity. I truly feel sorry for the Third Prince."
Yi Fei slammed her teacup down with a loud bang.
Coincidentally, Ru Yi had just entered and was startled by the noise.
Then Yi Fei glared reproachfully at Ru Yi and Ru Huan, causing them to immediately kneel down in fear.
"How could you not report such an important matter to me!"
"It's all my fault. This servant thought you were troubled by family matters and didn't want to burden you with this news. Please forgive me!"
The two of them knocked their heads on the ground loudly.
Yi Fei was so angry that her teeth were itching, but she didn't want to let outsiders see the Liu family's embarrassment.
So, with a cold tone, she said, "Go receive ten lashes. If you dare to act on your own in the future, I'll have your skins peeled off!"
"Yes, thank you, Your Highness, for your mercy."
Ru Yi and Ru Huan left with pale faces and closed the door behind them.
Seeing the outcome for the two of them, Bai Pin broke out in a cold sweat.
She felt an overwhelming fear and constantly glanced at Lady He, hoping she would speak up and ease the tension.
Lady He, being a warm-hearted person, although afraid of Yi Fei, preferred to assist her, hoping for more favors in return.
Otherwise, with her status and appearance, it would be difficult to make a name for herself in this palace.
"Your Highness, please be patient. Although the Second Prince being conferred a title is disadvantageous for us, looking at it from another perspective, this is a great opportunity!"
Yi Fei shot a sidelong glance at Lady He, seeming quite skeptical of her words.
"How so?"
"Your Highness, think about it. The Second Prince has been under Lan Fei's care for so many years, living in obscurity. Yet in just a few days at Huifang Courtyard, he's had his mother posthumously honored and has been promoted to King Han. If Lan Fei finds out, she'll probably be furious."
