Houmen's step-wife

Chapter 257 Returning home (1)
"Your Majesty—" Concubine Hu Gui raised her head in panic, with a look of regret and fear on her face, she was afraid that Emperor Xian De was telling the truth, because she understood the emperor's temperament, and he could do anything.

Emperor Xian De stopped looking at her, but looked at the other three concubines, and asked with a smile: "You think so too? If any of you agree to give up your seat, I will give up making her the wife of the country."

Hearing what Emperor Xian De said, Concubine Sun Shu, Concubine Zhou De and Concubine Huo Xian all felt tense, and quickly expressed their attitude: "Your Majesty, my concubine has no objection to His Majesty's decision."

Empress Ning also said: "Since Your Majesty has made up his mind, the courtiers and concubines must abide by it."

Su Wan is so favored, if she enters the palace, then it's okay, a first-rank lady is a first-rank lady, as long as she doesn't enter the palace, everything is easy to talk about.Empress Ning also changed her mind, thinking that Su Wan should not be allowed to enter the palace, so as not to raise a tiger.

Emperor Xian De glanced at the empress dowager Yu with a livid face, and said with a smile: "You see, empress mother, even the empress and the others agree, does empress mother still want me to take my life back?"

The Empress Dowager Yu eased her face, and said: "Ai's family is getting old, and I can't control so much anymore, so you can do whatever you want?" Obviously, she has been resigned.

"Get up!" Emperor Xian De said to everyone, and then said to Su Wan who was kneeling on the ground: "Madam, don't you hurry up and thank you?"

Now that the matter has come to this point, it would be too hypocritical for Su Wan to refuse, she immediately kowtowed and thanked her: "My daughter thank you Lord Long En, thank you Empress Dowager, thank you Empress Dowager."

Except for Emperor Xiande who was genuinely happy, the others probably felt uncomfortable. Although there was a smile on their face, they must be ruthlessly hurting Su Wan's villain in their hearts.

Su Wan also knew that she must be hated by others, so after getting up, she silently stepped aside.

"Ma'am, I will arrange for you to leave the palace today. After you return home, you can rest assured to wait for my will."

Although Emperor Xiande was reluctant to part with Su Wan, he also knew that Su Wan would be a target if she stayed in the palace. This could be seen from the concubines who repeatedly slandered her in front of him. If he hadn't known Su Wan well The ground is very thorough, and it must also have a grudge against her.

If Su Wan enters the palace, if things go on like this, he doesn't know if one day he will really get tired of her, listen to those women's provocative words, just like treating those concubines, and directly abolish her life and leave her in limbo.

He didn't want to encounter such a thing in the future, so he might as well follow Su Wan's wishes and let her stay outside the palace.

In this way, no matter how long the hands of these concubines are, they will not be able to reach out, and no matter how many methods they have, they will not be able to use them.

Moreover, as long as Su Wan does not enter the palace, her threat to other concubines will be minimized, and the hostility towards her will naturally not be so great, and Su Wan will naturally be safe.

Now that the matter has been decided, Empress Dowager Yu is also happy to be a good person. Anyway, Su Wan being the wife of this country will not hinder her, but it will be difficult to handle her in the future.

However, as long as she is the queen mother and wants to call her to treat her illness, she dare not refuse.

Then she said to Su Wan: "Good boy, the Ai family didn't intend to embarrass you on purpose, but because of the rules and etiquette, the Ai family prevented you from being made the wife of the country. You don't blame the Ai family in your heart, do you?"

"How could it be?" Su Wan said hastily: "Minnv understands that the Empress Dowager is actually for my own good, otherwise, she wouldn't want to accept me as a goddaughter."

The Empress Dowager Yu nodded with a smile, and then sighed softly: "The Ai family has already remembered the things you did for the Ai family, and the Ai family will never forget the things you begged for the Ai family. As I said, I won't treat you badly."

Empress Dowager Yu was talking about Princess Shouning at this time. From the very beginning, Empress Dowager Yu promised Su Wan to help her deal with Princess Shouning.

However, even she can't deal with Princess Shouning for no reason, only if she catches her fault, can she teach her a lesson openly.

"Thank you, Empress Dowager." Su Wan bowed her knees and saluted.

Emperor Xian De was not curious about what kind of charades they were playing, he just watched with a smile, and after they finished speaking, he said: "In that case, I will arrange for Madam to leave the palace."

Empress Dowager Yu said: "Emperor, since Miss Su was brought into the palace by the Ai family, then the Ai family sent someone to send her back. It can be regarded as a beginning and an end, how about it?"

The favor given to Su Wan by Emperor Xian De is already too great, if Emperor Xian De sends Su Wan back, who knows if he will create an extravagant scene?Therefore, it is better for her to arrange it.

"In that case, I will leave this matter to the empress." Emperor Xian De did not object to this, he paused and said: "I still have government affairs to attend to, let's take a step first, empress mother, I will come to see you tomorrow."

"Go ahead, government affairs are important." Empress Dowager Yu said with a smile. At this moment, the two of them became filial again, as if the dispute just now was just an illusion of everyone.

Emperor Xian De nodded, looked at Su Wan again, and left.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

Seeing that Emperor Xiande had left, all the concubines breathed a sigh of relief, even if they wanted to get along with Emperor Xiande, it would depend on the timing.

In the past, they wished to spend more time with the emperor, but this time, they wished that Emperor Xiande would leave early, so as not to implicate them in order to protect other women.

Empress Ning smiled and said to Su Wan: "Congratulations Miss Su, no, maybe I should call you Mrs. Chu."

Su Wan's face turned red, and she quickly leaned over and said, "I don't dare to call you empress like that."

Seeing Empress Ning, Su Wan actually felt guilty and guilty. After all, she is the emperor's original wife, so what is she?It's just a dewy relationship with the emperor, but now it has developed into a lover.Even if the lady of Chu is named in the future, she has a rank. To put it bluntly, she can only be regarded as the emperor's outer room, but she has turned from the dark to the bright.

No matter what the others are, anyway, she has no way to face the queen with confidence, which is one of the reasons why she is so eager to leave the palace.

In fact, she doesn't care about being the wife of a country, but she also knows Emperor Xian De's determination, he will not let her go easily.

Thinking of this, Su Wan felt inexplicably agitated.Maybe she was too greedy, even if she got some freedom and protection, status and wealth, she still couldn't really be happy.

However, the matter has come to this point, and she can't change it, so she can only accept it for the time being.

What's more, in addition to dealing with Emperor Xian De in the future, she also got the life she wanted.If you are not satisfied anymore, I am afraid that people will say that you are not greedy enough, and you will have to look forward to Shu.

Empress Ning secretly observed Su Wan's expression, with a slight surprise in her eyes. She originally thought that the other party would be so favored that she would be overbearing and domineering, and even she would not pay attention to her. She saw a guilty look on her face, as if she felt sorry for her.
