"It's said that 70% of the Empress's matters are left to him. He doesn't appear easily. Why did he e to the Privy Council today?"
Someone guessed that Qiao Nian would have to pay a painful price.
After all, she was too arrogant this time. She tied men from Leonard's family to the entrance of the Privy Council and beat them up. She even crippled Ji Ziyin in public… This was pletely stepping on Leonard's face…
Everyone knew that Ji Ziyin had Elder Leo's backing.
Someone wanted to see Qiao Nian pay the price for her arrogance!
Unexpectedly, when Leonard walked out and saw Luke, who was beaten half to death, although his eyes hardened, he still swallowed his anger.
He walked up to the girl and said with a cold expression, "Qiao Nian, you've already caused trouble and taken revenge. Can you stop now? Don't test me. After all, it won't look good for anyone if things really e to that!"
The girl pulled down her baseball cap and looked at him with her beautiful eyes. "What if I don't want to?"
"Don't push your luck!" Furious, Leonard warned in a low voice, "Do you think I would be talking to you if so many people weren't here?"
Qiao Nian ignored his words. She was not afraid of him at all. Her eyes met his and she clicked her tongue. "I've said the same thing to you before. But did you hear me? If you did, you wouldn't have targeted my people."
Leonard was about to explode with rage. He fought it down. "So, what the hell do you want?"
Qiao Nian had yet to answer his question when Shadow approached from behind him and said, "Your grandmother hopes that you will stop immediately."
"She's watching from the car." He looked into the girl's eyes and softly said, "You should know who she is. Don't make things difficult for her."
Qiao Nian's expression was casual and even a little bit cynical when she spoke to Leonard.
But when Shadow shamelessly mentioned the person in the car and even told her that the person was looking at her, she was silent for a moment before suddenly smiling.
Her lips curled up frivolously, and her expression turned almost disdainful. Her sharp gaze looked past Leonard at him, and she asked lightly, "Who gave you the courage to tell me this?"
Shadow pursed his lips at her coldness. Then, he said with a low and calm voice, "Whether you admit it or not, the Empress is still your grandmother. You have the closest blood ties in the world. You can dislike her, but you have to respect her!"
Qiao Nian's blood turned cold, and she barely suppressed her ruthlessness.
At this moment, a hand wrapped around her slightly cold hand, as if forting her and giving her a calming warmth. "Why? Does the Empress need to beg for respect?"
Shadow's expression changed. He suddenly stared at the young man standing behind Qiao Nian, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
Unfortunately, his threat was useless against Ye Wangchuan.
Young Master Ye was never easily intimidated.
Ye Wangchuan met his gaze and clicked his tongue. "The turtle in the pool has lived long enough. Do you think anyone respects it?"
They were in a deadlock.

At the Lincoln.
The chauffeur suddenly got out of the car and jogged to the back. Then, he lowered his head and opened the door.
