Houmen's step-wife

Chapter 447 The Mid-Autumn Family Banquet
Before, on the day of Zhengdan, they were supposed to enter the palace to congratulate the Empress. Unfortunately, at that time, the two eldest princesses of Nankang and Qinyang were both sick, so they did not enter the palace.

Even if Su Wan's family background is indeed not good, but she is the imperial concubine personally appointed by the emperor, and the vice queen has a high status. Therefore, the emperor's sisters, Princess Huaiqing, and Nankang are the ones who can enjoy the kowtow gifts from the princesses and imperial orders. The eldest princess can also be an exception.

Besides them, Su Wan also met her former mortal enemy, the former eldest princess Liang of Shouning.Although Liang's title has been revoked, she is still the Duke and Duchess of the United Kingdom, and she has also made an exception and was lifted by His Majesty just to enter the palace for a celebration ceremony.

But this time, Mrs. Liang would rather continue to chant scriptures in the small Buddhist hall than be pardoned and grounded.

She is much thinner than before, with gray hair, but she doesn't look kind, but rather harsh. When saluting, she kept her head down. Su Wan couldn't see her expression clearly. She must be vomiting blood now because of aggrieved .

It has to be said that seeing Mrs. Liang kowtow to her, she was indeed very happy in her heart, feeling the pleasure of getting revenge.

Even though Mrs. Liang was punished before, Su Wan didn't really feel it. Now, she finally felt bad breath.

Su Wan decided that in the future, when Zhengdan and Winter Solstice are celebrated, she will let her enter the palace and kneel a few more times.

Otherwise, how can she dispel the anger in her heart?She tried to kill her time and time again before, so what's wrong with asking her to kneel down a few more times?Does she still think it's cheap for her?
Of course, the current wife of Marquis Changwu, Su Qingxue, is also indispensable in this.Although Su Qingxue was also granted an imperial order, because it was the third time that Marquis Changwu married, this position was not as good as the first two. In the end, if it wasn't for Su Wan's good eyesight and careful searching for a while, she really wouldn't be able to find her.

Then there is Mrs. Changwu Houtai.

After Su Wan saw her, she was so shocked that she almost didn't recognize her.

Compared with before, it is really too old.

The former Mrs. Marquis of Changwu was well maintained, with not many wrinkles on her face, and her hair was only slightly gray.Even if I met her before, I didn't grow up like this.Now, her hair is all gray, and her wrinkles have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain. She is more than ten years older than before. She looks much worse than before, and her spirit is a little depressed. She must be living an extremely unhappy life. .

But Su Wan didn't have the slightest sympathy for her. She hated Mrs. Wang Tai deeply, because she asked for it all.

Su Wan also saw three little princesses, the eight-year-old fourth princess, the seven-year-old fifth princess, and the four-year-old seventh princess. Their tiny bodies all knelt on the ground respectfully.And the concubines headed by the noble concubine also knelt on the ground respectfully. Even if they were not reconciled, there was nothing they could do.

"Mian—" Su Wan said after looking around.

After the celebration ceremony, Su Wan didn't have time to delay, and led a group of concubines and imperial orders to the Palace of Compassion and Ning to salute the Empress Dowager, while the three little princesses were taken back.

Go out of the palace gate, set up a guard of honor, take a phoenix sedan chair, and go to the Palace of Compassion.

He got off the phoenix sedan chair in front of the gate of Ci Ning, supported Qiu's mother's hand, and walked inside.

At this time, when Su Wan came to the Compassionate Ning Palace again, her mentality had changed greatly.

Thinking back to the first time I came to the Palace of Compassion and Ning, I was trembling, fearing that I would say a wrong word or do a wrong thing. Later, even if she was named Mrs. Chu, she still had awe towards the Queen Mother. Even if she refuted her at the beginning, she was forced to Last resort.But now, she felt that her heart was very peaceful, and she had no other emotions besides this.

"Meet the empress dowager!" After entering the main hall, Su Wan bowed slightly to the empress dowager who was sitting on the throne.The others also followed Su Wan to salute the Empress Dowager.

Although the Empress Dowager Yu has been under house arrest for so long, she doesn't seem to have changed much. Instead, she has a lot of energy. Obviously, her mentality is much better than that of the eldest princess of Shouning. winner.

The Empress Dowager Yu didn't look at anyone else, she just stared at Su Wan with her sharp eyes, and took a special look at Su Wan's belly, before she said calmly: "Get up!"

"Thank you, Empress Dowager."

After Su Wan straightened up, Empress Dowager Yu said with a smile on her face: "I haven't seen you for a while, Mrs. Chu, no, the imperial concubine is pregnant with a dragon heir. It's really gratifying."

Su Wan didn't know how to answer, she just lowered her head and smiled without saying a word.

Empress Dowager Yu's expression was a bit complicated, she really didn't expect that Su Wan could climb so fast.

Now, her health has improved a lot, but she has lost the honor she deserved.

If she had known this earlier, she would not have let Su Wan enter the palace to see a doctor for her.

She would rather endure the pain of illness than be confessed like this.

Afterwards, Empress Dowager Yu took another look at Guo Meiren in the crowd, feeling a little reconciled and hating her for not fighting.

Su Wan's current status and honor should belong to Guo Changxi. If Guo Meiren becomes the imperial concubine, she will die in peace.

It's a pity that Guo Changxi lost to Su Wan even though she was blessed with such unique conditions. It's really useless!

It's not that she doesn't know what Guo Changxi did to her. After she was locked up, she never saw her. However, Guo Changxi is the only hope of the Yu family after all, and for this reason, she can't give up on her.

When Guo Changxi saw the Empress Dowager, she was a little excited, a little ashamed, but more of a grievance.

Without the protection of the Empress Dowager, her life in the palace is not easy. All the privileges are gone, and she will be made things difficult by other concubines. The life is quite difficult. Now she finally knows how good the Empress Dowager treats her It's too late.

It would be great if the empress dowager could be released in the future!
Your Majesty will definitely not agree.However, if the Imperial Concubine said a few words for the Queen Mother, His Majesty might agree.

After Guo Changxi decided to go back, she went to beg the imperial concubine.

Su Wan didn't stay in the Compassionate Ning Palace, and soon left in a phoenix sedan chair. At this moment, the procedure was finally finished and she could take a good rest.

Those edicts also resigned from the palace.

As for Concubine Hu Gui, she went back to confinement honestly, Concubine De and Concubine Shu continued to copy scriptures.

That night, Su Wan moved to live in the back hall of Qinzheng Hall, living together like an ordinary couple.

The days passed day by day, and soon, His Majesty's Longevity Festival arrived, and the Mid-Autumn Festival also arrived. It was still the same as usual, with a three-day holiday for all the people to enjoy themselves.

Su Wan also lived very comfortably during this time.

No one bothered her, almost the same as when she was outside the palace.
