Houmen's step-wife

Chapter 346
The Empress Dowager Yu was very displeased when she heard the words, and was about to reprimand her for being bold with a cold face, but Su Wan didn't give her this chance, and continued: "The Empress Dowager watched His Majesty grow up, so she should understand His Majesty's temperament. His Majesty has been on the throne for so many years. Come on, have you ever made any stupid policies and actions? If the concubine really wants to persuade your majesty, build this and that, harm the loyal and good, and interfere in court politics, your majesty may be the first one to tolerate me. Even if you don't trust the concubine , and you should trust His Majesty."

"As the saying goes, if you can't slap a slap, even if there is a demon concubine who harms the country and the people, it's because the emperor is fatuous and lustful. Could it be that in the eyes of the queen mother, your majesty is the kind who loves beauty, is indecisive, and has no judgment at all?" Faint Lord?"

Emperor Xian De may be lustful and sentimental, but to him, women are just a taste, a tonic, he has always been extremely rational, and it is even more impossible for him to be played around by women.Indecisive and indecisive, without judgment, it would be even more impossible. The Empress Dowager Yu naturally knew this well, otherwise, she would have completely controlled Emperor Xiande long ago.

Of course, she would not think that Emperor Xian De would be controlled by Su Wan. Those accusations against Su Wan were just high-sounding excuses, the purpose of which was to make Su Wan fall out of favor.

But she thought that even if Su Wan was wronged, she would just endure it, but she didn't expect that she would refute herself like this, which made the Queen Mother both shocked and angry.

Emperor Xiande looked at Su Wan with a trace of tenderness and admiration in his eyes, and a smile appeared on his lips at some point.

Su Wan was neither humble nor overbearing, the appearance of defending herself to the Queen Mother really made him so rare.

Confident yet respectful, frank and fearless, not to mention cowardly, at that moment, he seemed to feel that her whole body was shining, which made him feel novel and even moved.

His little wild cat, as expected, remained the same as before, and would still stretch out its paws to scratch her if it made her anxious.

"Su Shi, you are too presumptuous. Is that how you talk to Ai's family? How can you be so uneducated that you deserve to be admitted into our royal family?" Empress Dowager Yu was furious, ignoring the presence of Emperor Xiande, and scolded Su Wan angrily. .

"Enough--" Emperor Xian De raised his hand and interrupted the Empress Dowager Yu, with a pair of slightly narrow eyes, he looked at her coldly, with a trace of reproach and boredom.

Empress Dowager Yu stared at Emperor Xian De with wide eyes as if seeing a ghost, her face was full of astonishment, as if she couldn't believe that Emperor Xian De would treat her so disrespectfully for a woman.

Emperor Xiande stood up, walked to Su Wan's side, took her hand and looked it up and down, and then said to the queen mother in a displeased tone: "Queen mother, it was obviously you who asked Mrs. Chu to defend herself, but now you can't I retorted, but I started to use my status to suppress others. So, is it the empress dowager's tolerance and upbringing? Besides, the empress dowager has also studied Buddhism for many years, so why does she have no tolerance and compassion, even her benefactor, They are all so slanderous and insulting!"

Empress Dowager Yu's complexion instantly turned into a liver color, but she still glared at Emperor Xiande and said, "Emperor, do you know what you are talking about? This is how you treat your empress mother?"

Emperor Xiande said lightly: "Queen Dowager, don't use these words to oppress me, I know exactly what I'm talking about? Don't say anything that you don't owe Mrs. Chu, the Queen Mother, those rewards are given by me, and have nothing to do with the Queen Mother. Just for those two prescriptions, she can afford no matter how many rewards she has! What did you thank Queen Mother for? I only see you making things difficult for Mrs. Chu time and time again for a little selfish desire."

"If I don't say anything about some things, it doesn't mean I don't understand. In the past, because you raised me for a while, as long as you didn't do too much, I would turn a blind eye and close one eye, even I have always been respectful to you, but you challenged my bottom line again and again, which really made me intolerable."

The Empress Dowager Yu finally changed her face when she heard this, and I hurriedly defended myself: "Emperor, what nonsense are you talking about? Aijia is also for your own good, so don't be fooled by that woman. Don't you, for her, Do you want to be disrespectful to your adoptive mother? Are you worthy of my kindness in nurturing me for so many years?"

It's fine if she doesn't talk about it, but when she mentioned it, Emperor Xiande became even angrier, but said with a smile on his face: "Queen Dowager, are you ashamed to tell me about the kindness of nurturing? At the beginning, I hadn't been seen by my father. Before I came into my eyes, you and I both knew how you treated me. However, after I ascended the throne, I still appointed you as the queen mother, let you pamper you for so many years, and even took care of you at home many times, but you are still not satisfied. I tried my best to seek benefits for the Yu family here, as long as it was not too much, I agreed. No matter how you say it, you did provide me with shelter at the beginning. But for so many years, I have been the queen mother, and even You have done so much in the Yu family, and what you owed you has been paid off long ago."

When the Empress Dowager Yu heard this, the anger on her face dissipated immediately, and instead she flashed a bit of panic——

Is the emperor serious this time?

Emperor Xiande didn't care what the Empress Dowager was thinking, and continued to say coldly: "I don't want someone to point fingers at me in the name of my good, I'm already tired of it. But don't worry, I won't abolish you However, since the Empress Dowager is seriously ill, she should recuperate in this Palace of Compassion and Ning from now on. Now, the garden of the Palace of Compassion and Ning is almost finished. I will order everyone not to disturb the Empress Dowager's rest."

Empress Dowager Yu's face was ashen, her lips trembled, and she was in a panic, but with a hint of disbelief, she wanted to say something, but she couldn't say it.

Although she is still the empress dowager, once she is under house arrest, her empress dowager is just an empty title, and will be forgotten in a few days, and has no effect at all. In this case, what is the point of her being a empress dowager?
Empress Dowager Yu subconsciously looked into the crowd, wanting someone to speak for her, to persuade Emperor Xiande.

She first looked at Su Wan, wanting Su Wan to plead for her, but how could Su Wan agree?She is neither a saint who repays grievances with virtue, nor a masochist who cannot fight back when beaten. She has already seen the character of the Queen Mother, but she doesn't want to be revenged again.

Empress Dowager Yu looked at Empress Ning again, but Empress Ning just smiled slightly, showing a hint of helplessness in her eyes, and looked away.

Even Concubine Hu Gui and the others didn't want to touch Emperor Xiande, let alone be angered by Emperor Xiande for the Queen Mother.

The Empress Dowager Yu's last gaze fell on Guo Changxi. Guo Changxi's face was a little ugly, but she quickly recovered, and she looked away lightly, as if she hadn't seen the Empress Dowager Yu's eyes calling for help.

Guo Changxi has long had feelings for the Empress Dowager, even though she knew that she was her backer in the palace, she couldn't really get close to her, let alone, she was in danger at the moment, how could she help her?It's too late for her to hide!
