Chapter 42 042: Xiao Jinran and the Empress Dowager Dispute
Chapter 42 042: Xiao Jinran and the Queen Mother argue
Su Wanyan looked down at several guards from a high position. She was dressed in a red palace dress and showed off her domineering attitude. If the guards dared to touch her clothes, she would definitely twist their heads off.
Surrendering to others has never been her style.
"What could make the queen so angry?"
A cold and lazy voice sounded, and everyone turned around. It was Xiao Jinran who had arrived.
Wearing a black brocade robe embroidered with golden dragons, he looked graceful and luxurious.
Wen Nianruan didn't look at Xiao Jinran, but his eyes fell on the person next to him. It was Yun Chenan who was wearing white flowing cloud sleeves.
As soon as he appeared, the garden was filled with spring scenery, which was not as stunning as his.
Li Yingshuang quietly blushed, her eyes filled with spring water, looking at Yun Chenan with a bit of obsession hidden in her eyes.
Yun Chenan's warm eyes gently glanced at Wen Nianruan, with a faint smile on his lips.
When she saw Xiao Jinran coming, the Queen Mother's face became even more gloomy: "Since the Emperor is here, the Emperor will make the decision. Should Concubine Shu be punished for doing Fanxiu?"
Xiao Jinran's slightly cold eyes swept across the crowd, without even glancing at Wen Nianruan. When he saw her and the Queen Mother together, he knew what they were thinking.
He replied: "The concubine Shu's intricate embroidery must not be for nothing. There must be a reason."
The Queen Mother snorted coldly: "Shuang'er, tell the emperor why Concubine Shu wears complicated embroidery."
Li Yingshuang responded, bowed politely, and then recounted what had just happened in a clear and logical manner. After speaking, she unconsciously glanced at Yun Chenan.
Xiao Jinran knew the whole story and looked at Wen Nianruan coldly: "Since the incident was caused by Concubine Wen's cat, let's just deal with the cat and take revenge on Fanxiu. Does Concubine Wen have any objections?
"
Good guy, I have to put the fire on her head.
Wen Nianruan lowered his eyes and cursed secretly, and said in a low voice: "Although my concubine's cat is at fault, it is not worthy of death. It has been following me for such a long time, and I am also reluctant to let go." Shui Mist
He looked at the Queen Mother with hazy fox eyes and called out aggrievedly: "The Queen Mother."
She didn't believe that this old witch wouldn't help her.
Xiao Jinran knew that she would seek help from the Queen Mother, and he felt even more fed up with Wen Nianruan.
Since Wen Nianruan had asked her for help, the Queen Mother naturally couldn't ignore it. Although the cat scratched Xiao Qingtong, it was Wen Nianruan's cat and she couldn't do anything to it.
Now she still needs to take advantage of Wen Nianruan, and she must have the love on the surface.
The Queen Mother snorted coldly: "Your Majesty, don't evade the important issues. The issue we are discussing now is not about the cat, but about Concubine Shu's hands on the embroidery."
Xiao Jinran brought up the matter with a cat, and the Queen Mother knew that he was trying to excuse Su Wanyan. Even if Wen Nianruan didn't ask her for help, she couldn't just let the matter end casually.
Xiao Jinran said: "In this case, Concubine Shu will be punished with confinement for a month and her virtues copied a hundred times."
Before the Queen Mother could refute, he ordered the palace officials: "Take Concubine Shu back to the palace to accept the crime."
This favoritism can be described as blatant.
The Queen Mother naturally disagreed and said sternly: "Your Majesty! To punish Concubine Shu so easily would be too perfunctory for the Ai family."
"Since the Queen Mother has asked me to make the decision, I will discuss the matter as it is, and there is nothing perfunctory about it," Xiao Jinran said.
The Queen Mother's face turned gloomy: "It seems that the Emperor has overstepped his authority and has to protect Concubine Shu."
Xiao Jinran smiled lightly, staring at her with coldness in his eyes: "Mother, please don't forget, I am the emperor, and I have the final say in all matters."
This sentence is to remind the Queen Mother who the emperor of Xiliang is.
The Queen Mother's eyes were gloomy, and the long armor was secretly broken by her. She suppressed her anger. When her Feng'er ascended the throne one day, she would definitely trample Xiao Jinran under her feet.
Full of anger, she had to quickly pull Xiao Jinran down from the throne.
Xiao Jinran stared at the Queen Mother, her eyes cold and deep. With him here, Xiao Weifeng would never be able to sit on the throne in this life.
The Queen Mother didn't know yet that even her plots and schemes could not escape Xiao Jinran's eyes.
Xiao Jinran has been raised under the Queen Mother's knees since he was five years old. The Queen Mother treats him openly as if she were her own child, but secretly does many cruel things to him, but Xiao Jinran sees through it all. Xiao Jinran has not been killed for such a long time. Sometimes the Queen Mother
They all couldn't help but wonder if Yu Sang's spirit was protecting him.
All of this is just because Xiao Jinran has the ability to read minds. Ever since he followed the Queen Mother, he knew that she wanted to harm him, so he was able to avert danger every time.
Su Wanyan has disappeared, and there is no point in arguing about this matter.
The Queen Mother could only hold back her anger and gave up. She said to the nanny beside her: "Take the princess down to see her injuries first."
No matter how wronged Xiao Qingtong was, he could only endure it and walked away filled with anger.
The Queen Mother wanted to punish Su Wanyan today, not only because she hit Xiao Qingtong, but also because she wanted to take the opportunity to suppress Su Wanyan's spirit.
Nowadays, almost the entire court is in the Xiao Weifeng camp. Only Su Muye and his wife are loyal to Xiao Jinran to the death. Su Muye is a general who controls the country with 200,000 troops, and is also the person who the Queen Mother fears the most.
Although the Queen Mother has the support of the Right Prime Minister's Office behind her, she is still not worth mentioning in front of the General's Office. Su Wanyan is now domineering in the harem, which the Queen Mother has long disliked. She has always wanted to suppress Su Wanyan, and then pull the trigger.
Overthrow the General's Mansion.
With Su Muye and his wife around, Xiao Weifeng's journey to seize the throne would not be smooth.
Xiao Jinran also knew the Queen Mother's thoughts, so it was impossible for her to teach Su Wanyan a lesson. No matter who was right or wrong about this matter today, he would definitely protect Su Wanyan.
The Queen Mother glared at Xiao Jinran, threw down her sleeves and left.
The Queen Mother had left, and Li Yingshuang had no reason to stay here. He took a peek at Yun Chenan, biting his red lips as if he was reluctant to leave.
Wen Nianruan noticed Li Yingshuang's expression and narrowed his eyes slightly.
Very good, it seems that this woman will be one of her love rivals in the future.
After a group of people left, only Wen Nianruan, Xiao Jinran, and Yun Chenan were left.
Wen Nianruan said: "Since everything is fine, I will go back first."
"Wait a minute," Xiao Jinran glanced at her and then moved away, with disgust in his eyes, and said coldly: "Your cat is always doing evil in the palace. In my opinion, I can deal with it directly to avoid causing more trouble in the future.
Big trouble."
Wen Nianruan's eyelids twitched, as expected, the dog emperor still wanted to deal with Gungun.
When she was thinking about how to save Gungun's life, Yun Chenan suddenly interjected: "Your Majesty, Concubine Wen also likes Concubine Wen's cat. Why don't you raise Yueyao Palace for a while first, and I will wear it out?"
Its temperament should not be allowed to cause trouble again. If it still refuses to change its temper in the future, it will not be too late for the emperor to deal with it."
Now that he has spoken, Xiao Jinran will definitely give him face.
He responded: "Then let Zi Shu take care of him for now. If this cat comes out to cause trouble in the future, don't blame me for being rude."
"I obey my orders."
Wen Nianruan couldn't help but glance at Yun Chenan. His eyes were falling on her, and he smiled and nodded gently at her, feeling like a wisp of breeze blowing over the tip of his heart, tickling her slightly.
