C814 Identity of Lady Wan (1/2)
The empress's expression couldn't be considered nice, but she said coldly, ”As an empress, I naturally have to be in charge of the harem. As a wife, I have to trust my husband's words.
This was the rule.
As a member of the royal family, you should endure the loneliness that ordinary people cannot endure.
If everyone is like you, and your husband cannot endure the loneliness after leaving for a short while and goes to look for someone, then wouldn't it be a mess? I am the Queen, and I will set an example for all the women in the world.
As an imperial concubine, you are naturally the same.
”Mu Ru Yue, do you admit your mistake!”
the Queen snapped.
You know your wrongs? Mu Ru Yue knew everything, but she didn't know her mistake. However, Mu Ru Yue didn't retort as she looked at the Queen. She said, ”Mu Ru Yue is willing to accept punishment.”
She was punished, but she wouldn't admit it wrong.
Perhaps it was as the empress had said, the empress needed to set an example for all the women in the world, but what did that have to do with her? All she liked was a phoenix seep. If Feng Chen was no longer around.
She had no interest in such things!
If something were to happen to Feng Li due to her cowardice, then she wouldn't even have the face to continue living.
In her life, it was hard to be moved, and it was even harder to be alone for a long time. The last person was Qing Xun. He had let her down and thought that there would never be a second person in his life.
Perhaps this was also a kind of fate.
She chose to accept it. If this person would also leave, she really didn't know what to do.
So she accepted the punishment, but she would not admit her mistakes, because from her point of view, she did not miss it.
Mu Ru Yue's stubbornness gave the empress a headache. Did she want to make Mu Ru Yue's conviction a little bigger? The Crown Prince was about to get married, if he was angry.
With no sense of propriety, she had punished the people from the south, as well as the people who had organized the crown prince's wedding, for the whole thing. That was why she hadn't been able to arrange a wedding for the crown prince.
The emperor would never forgive her, the empress.
In the eyes of the emperor, even big problems wouldn't be as big as the crown prince's wedding banquet, right?
As she thought about it, the empress couldn't help but mock him.
”Esteemed Empress, I believe Elder Sister is only worried about the prince. Don't mind it too much.” Just as the empress was thinking about how to deal with Mu Ru Yue.
Lady Wan slowly opened her mouth.
The empress's face softened as she heard Lady Wan speak. She was very kind. ”You are just too kind. But you are an honored guest of our palace.
This time, I'll give you face.
Seventh Princess, you can get up. ”
The Queen ordered coldly.
Mu Ru Yue felt it was strange. When did this Lady Wan become an esteemed guest? Lady Wan was previously conferred the title of Princess Wan by the emperor, but it's not like the empress would be so amiable, right?
It was as if he could tell what Mu Ru Yue was thinking.
The empress then said, ”Oh right, I almost forgot to introduce him to you. This is Princess Wan.”
”I know.” Then, she looked at Lady Wan and said, ”It was personally sealed by the emperor.”
The empress's face darkened. ”What emperor? Really rude! This is Princess Wan. In the past, he had been left out in the world for a few reasons.
Now, after the envoys had confirmed that he was Princess Wan.
It's a real princess! ”
The empress's words made Mu Ru Yue's entire body tense up.
F * ck! It can't be?
[Is Lady Wan really a princess?] Mu Ru Yue felt as though her entire being was in trouble. But soon after, she remembered something. Previously, when they were at odds, Lady Wan and her relationship wasn't on good terms.
It seemed that the steward had said that Lady Wan had better not offend him.
Furthermore, the steward had always been very respectful towards Lady Wan.
The housekeeper seemed to be someone left behind by Feng Chen's mother? Are they also from the Thousand Meddling Hands? If the people of Thousandleaf's world knew that Lady Wan was a princess and they were even respectful to her, then … It's possible.
The smile on Lady Wan's face was bland.
