"Yi Pin, even though I am being punished by the Emperor now, you still have no right to humiliate me!"
Consort Li straightened her back, unfazed by Yi Pin's difficulties.
"Don't I?" Yi Pin's gaze shifted, looking at the few servants beside her, "These insolent slaves, seeing me without kneeling, without paying respects, this is contempt, absolute contempt! Guards, kill all these insolent slaves!"
Immediately, several more guards rushed in to seize the people around Consort Li.
"How dare you, who dares, stop, stop immediately!"
The ones who rushed in were the Imperial Guards, all of them holding long swords, clad in armor. The palace maid eunuchs on Consort Li's side were no match for them.
They were taken down with just a slight struggle.
Of course, there were indeed skilled martial artists among Consort Li's people, but this was the Imperial Palace. It was inappropriate for them to reveal their skills, so they could only pretend to be caught, and watch the development.
