Chapter 52: A Powerful Counterattack

A Powerful Counterattack

The Imperial Palace, the residence of ancient emperors. Nie Jinxuan had never imagined that one day she would be able to walk into this place in person. Curiosity, surprise—but at this moment, looking at the tall back walking before her, Nie Jinxuan felt only anger.

Because from the moment they got off the carriage and entered the palace gate, Yin Fengzhan had not said a single word to her, striding forward and leaving Nie Jinxuan behind. Watching him walk further and further away, the anger in Nie Jinxuan's heart climbed steadily, until finally, she stopped abruptly.

"Yin Fengzhan, you stand still!"

Nie Jinxuan was furious! Her voice, neither too loud nor too soft, startled the palace servants passing by, and also caused Yin Fengzhan, who was walking in front, to stop and slowly turn his head.

Yin Fengzhan did not speak, only looked at Nie Jinxuan quietly. Seeing this, the palace servants who had been startled into stopping hurriedly lowered their heads and walked away quickly.

In the blink of an eye, beneath the high walls of the Imperial City, only Yin Fengzhan and Nie Jinxuan remained. Even the young eunuch leading the way had hidden far away, not daring to say a word.

At this moment, after staring at Yin Fengzhan from a distance for a long while, Nie Jinxuan finally pursed her lips, lifted her long palace skirt, and walked up to Yin Fengzhan with large strides.

"Yin Fengzhan, if you didn't want to bring me into the palace, just say so! There is no need to give me a cold face here! I don't owe you anything! Furthermore, if you don't want me to be disrespectful to the Noble Consort, then please don't be disrespectful to me!"

Looking up to meet Yin Fengzhan's cold and terrifying gaze, Nie Jinxuan said every word clearly. After finishing, she didn't wait for Yin Fengzhan to speak, but walked forward with large strides. As she passed the young eunuch hiding in the corner, she said in a low voice:

"Little Eunuch, let's go!"

"Uh... yes, yes..."

The young eunuch was so frightened by Nie Jinxuan's aura that he didn't dare to talk nonsense, hurriedly responding, and then quickly led Nie Jinxuan toward the inner palace. After winding and turning for nearly a quarter of an hour, they finally arrived at Yongxin Palace!

Yongxin Palace, the sleeping quarters of Yin Fengzhan's aunt, Zhang Guifei. Standing before the gate of Yongxin Palace, looking up at the majestic yet ancient-looking palace halls, Nie Jinxuan couldn't help but frown slightly, then turned to look behind her.

Being angry with Yin Fengzhan was one thing, but Zhang Guifei was an elder after all, so she couldn't be too disrespectful. At this moment, just as Nie Jinxuan stopped and turned back, Yin Fengzhan also caught up with large strides.

But this time, Yin Fengzhan said nothing more. Their eyes met, each knowing the other's mind, and then Yin Fengzhan led Nie Jinxuan inside... But just as they walked through the palace gate, a man's voice reached them instantly.

"Fourth Brother!"

The voice was familiar and loud. As the sound faded, Prince Gong, Yin Fengxuan, was seen walking quickly from the side hall to meet them.

"Oh my, I say Fourth Brother, why did you only just arrive! Mother and I have been waiting for you for a long time. Just now Mother was still muttering, saying..."

Yin Fengxuan spoke while laughing, but the moment he reached Yin Fengzhan, he couldn't help but freeze, then suddenly widened his eyes and shouted:

"Hey, why did this woman come? Who let you come?"

The woman Yin Fengxuan spoke of was naturally Nie Jinxuan. Hearing this, Nie Jinxuan, who was following Yin Fengzhan, only raised her eyes to look at him.

"If your Fourth Brother tells me to go back now, I will leave immediately!"

"You..."

One sentence left Yin Fengxuan speechless. Nie Jinxuan then turned her gaze to the side, ignoring him completely... Hearing this, Yin Fengzhan turned to look at her for a second, then turned to Yin Fengxuan, whose face was red with anger from Nie Jinxuan, and said:

"Alright, let's go in first, don't keep Aunt waiting!" ===== CHAPTER 53 =====
