How could the Empress Dowager not know that these words were just words they said to comfort her, but which woman wouldn't want to hear such words that she is still young?
Even the Empress Dowager is of course unavoidable from this custom.
After Zhao Yuyan's reminder and the emperor's order, the palace staff were well-trained and brought out plates of rich and varied dishes.
"These are specially prepared by the Empress Dowager and the Emperor for Princess Xiaode. Princess Xiaode must not let down the good intentions of the Emperor and the Empress Dowager. Please eat more today."
The dishes had just been served, and before Su Jinluo said anything, Zhao Yuying started talking in a weird and sinister manner.
Hearing Zhao Yuying's awkward tone, Su Jinluo's heart sank:
It seems that when Zhao Yuying came to find him before, the consensus they reached was in vain again.
What kind of tricks is this woman Zhao Yuying doing? Didn't she agree that the water in the well is not the water in the river?
Seeing the strange light flashing in Su Jinluo's eyes, Zhao Yuyan, who was sitting in the upper seat, picked up a wine glass, took a small sip, and had a slight smile on her lips:
How could she let her eldest sister and Su Jinluo live in peace?
The eldest sister's smooth sailing was changed because of Su Jinluo's relationship. If the eldest sister and Su Jinluo made a pact that they would not violate the river, wouldn't it be impossible for her?
Zhao Yuyan always felt that if she wanted to deal with Zhao Yuying, she must bring Su Jinluo to her side.
For this reason, she would never allow Su Jinluo and Zhao Yuying to have any semblance of peace.
"Sister, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief after seeing you come out of the shadow of my aunt's death. A few days ago, I didn't even know how to persuade my sister."
Just when Su Jinluo was confused and didn't understand why Zhao Yuying turned into a hedgehog in front of her again, Sun Simiao's soft words gave Su Jinluo an answer.
Upon hearing Sun Simiao's words, Su Jinluo's eyes flashed and he looked over.
Sure enough, after listening to Sun Simiao's words, Zhao Yuying's face not only showed hatred, but her eyes became red.
Su Jinluo looked at Zhao Yuying carefully at this time, and then realized that Zhao Yuying had changed from her previous gorgeous dress, and her clothes had become plain.
As for the shiny gold and silver jewelry, they disappeared directly from Zhao Yuying's body. Even the jade gong, Zhao Yuying didn't bring a single one.
Seeing this situation and thinking about what Sun Simiao said just now, Su Jinluo understood:
Mrs. Zhao Shangshu has passed away.
Zhao Yuying is the wife of the little emperor. Even if her biological mother dies, she cannot be like ordinary women who wear sackcloth and pay filial piety to her biological mother.
Even so, Zhao Yuying tried her best to reduce her beauty in order to show her filial daughter's heart to her biological mother.
Thinking that Mrs. Zhao Shangshu, who had always been in good health, passed away so suddenly, Su Jinluo looked at Zhao Yuyan out of the corner of his eye.
Sure enough, Su Jin landed on the corner of Zhao Yuyan's mouth, caught an invisible smile, and immediately understood one or two things in her heart.
If that aunt is Zhao Yuyan's only tie to the Zhao family, then Mrs. Zhao Shangshu is also Zhao Yuying's soft assistant.
When Mrs. Zhao Shangshu died, it was impossible for Zhao Yuying not to hate her, especially the murderer who killed Mrs. Zhao Shangshu. She hated her to the core.
There is no hesitation, except Zhao Yuyan, who would take action against Mrs. Zhao Shangshu at this time.
