Chapter 418
He stood there, looking down at her.
Wen Xueruo cried harder and harder, almost out of breath. The tears were like broken bead curtains, falling straight down. She didn't dare to reach out to wipe them, she only opened her eyes and carefully looked at his expression, submissive.
Begged for mercy and defended repeatedly.
The arrow was on the string and had to be fired. She had come this far and she could never lose it easily again. Emperor Su Fang was a womanizer, so she acted pitifully and attractively, wrapping herself around his legs like she was wrapped around a tree.
The growing vines tighten and climb little by little,
She told him that she had never had other thoughts, and that she had just stepped on the hem of her skirt accidentally and could not stand firmly. After saying this, she couldn't help praising Emperor Sufang and praising him.
Heroic, praising him for being young and handsome, praising him for being wise...
But even though Emperor Sufang listened, his face didn't change much. The look on his face relaxed a little, but he didn't look happy or satisfied.
Wen Xueruo secretly thought that something was not right. She was afraid that Emperor Su Fang had already concluded that the previous fall was because of her deliberate plans and to plot against him.
In this case, no matter how much she argued, Emperor Sufang would definitely not believe it. With her mind spinning, she suddenly let go of her hand, fell to the ground, cried and kowtowed twice, and said softly: "Your Majesty, my maiden
guilty……"
When Emperor Sufang heard this, he found it more interesting and asked, "What's the crime?"
Wen Xueruo choked with sobs and kowtowed again, causing her forehead to turn red. She said softly: "I should not act rashly and admire you."
"Admiration?" Emperor Su Fang's eyes moved slightly.
Wen Xueruo's crying continued, but gradually became softer. She knelt naked in front of him, with black hair flowing behind her like a puddle of water, showing her alluring beauty.
She said firmly: "Yes, I have already fallen in love with the Emperor the first time I met you..."
Emperor Sufang was stunned when he heard this, and then he burst into laughter. The gloom on his face was finally wiped away and turned into a smiling face.
This was the first time he had met such a woman.
Emperor Sufang looked at her body up and down, and finally said: "Forget it, let's just forget about that matter."
After saying that, he turned around and left without staying for even a moment.
Staring at his retreating back, Wen Xueruo gritted her teeth and cried twice. Finally, she swallowed her tears.
——Since we have miscalculated, we can only take one step at a time.
She just stayed in the palace for a long time.
The palace banquet has ended, and everyone has left the palace gates at dusk. Mrs. Wen is a little behind everyone because she has not seen her daughter yet. She was in the imperial garden before. She clearly heard the palace people say
, it was Hui and Princess who invited Wen Xueruo to enjoy the flowers together. She thought that after a while, the two of them would come back. Who knows, from then on, she never saw her daughter again.
Even after the breakup, she didn't wait for Wen Xueruo to come back.
Mrs. Wen couldn't help but feel a little worried and asked the imperial concubine to come to her.
However, she had never seen the imperial concubine. After sitting in the side hall and waiting for about a quarter of an hour, she still only saw the aunt accompanying the imperial concubine walking slowly in from the door. When she saw her, she said: "Mrs. Wen
.The empress has just had two glasses of wine, and she will be very drunk. I am afraid that it will be inconvenient to see you for a while."
As Mrs. Wen listened, she couldn't help but feel distressed secretly, because it was getting late and she couldn't stay in the palace for a long time. She couldn't inquire about Princess Huihe, so she had to pester the serious aunt in front of her and ask tentatively: "I don't know.
Is my little girl still in the princess palace right now?"
"Of course, yes. Don't worry, the empress has sent someone to Yong'an Palace to ask questions. In a short while, Miss Wen will be invited to see you."
Mrs. Wen breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.
She waited for a while while eating tea, and there was indeed a movement outside.
She quickly raised her head, thinking that her daughter had arrived, but who knew that it was not Wen Xueruo who came.
It was the same aunt from before who raised the curtain and came in, bowed and saluted, and then said: "Mrs. Wen can leave the palace first."
Mrs. Wen was shocked when she heard this and asked hurriedly: "Can you explain what my aunt said?" She had come to wait for her daughter to leave the palace together, but now she was asked to leave the palace alone? She thought randomly and said:
"But Your Highness, Princess, did you leave the little girl to talk?"
Princess Huihe often stayed with the girl from the Xie family in the past. Maybe this time she and Wen Xueruo had a fun chat, so she stayed with her too.
But before this thought could stay in her mind for a moment, the middle-aged woman standing a step away and speaking slowly opened her mouth and gave her a heavy blow.
She said, "Mrs. Wen was wrong. It was the Emperor who kept Miss Wen."
Mrs. Wen stood up and stared at the visitor in stunned silence. With her mouth trembling, she asked: "Your Majesty?"
"It is your Majesty."
With a bang, these four words fell like thunder on her ears.
Mrs. Wen felt that her two buttocks were trembling, she was unsteady on her feet, her whole body was weak, her vision was black, her mouth was filled with words, but she could not hold back her teeth and could not utter even a single word.
"It's getting late. Please leave the palace early, Mrs. Wen, and be careful along the way."
Mrs. Wen listened to these words blankly, nodded with blank eyes, and walked step by step outside the side hall.
The originally bright daylight had gradually dimmed. She stood at the door, took a deep breath, quickened her pace, and fled back to the British palace as if she were flying.
Along the way, Mrs. Wen's breathing was rapid and unsteady, and she was covered in cold sweat, which almost soaked her back shirt.
As soon as the carriage stopped outside the hanging flower door, she hurried down.
The maid came to help her but she pushed her away hard.
As she walked, she was restless and sent someone to ask the British Lord to speak. She repeatedly warned him to hurry up and hurry up!
The maid got the order and left quickly.
Mrs. Wen went back to the main room first, waiting anxiously for her husband to come back. The sweat on her forehead became more and more dense. She took a plain satin handkerchief and wiped it repeatedly, but the sweat kept dripping down.
, making her even more flustered.
Suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps outside the door.
She suddenly threw away the handkerchief in her hand and almost rushed over. She grabbed the British prince who had just entered the door and said nervously: "My lord, something big has happened!"
The British prince had just come in from outside. He couldn't help but be confused when he saw what was going on. He frowned and patted her back reassuringly and asked, "What's wrong? Isn't everything fine before you go out?"
"It was fine before we went out, but now things are really going wrong!" Mrs. Wen held his arm tightly, with a look of fear on her face, "Sister Luo, she...she..."
She hesitated, but didn't know where to start.
But the British father-in-law could tell that something was wrong. He helped her sit down on the chair and asked, "What's wrong with her?"
Mrs. Wen let out a long sigh, let go of her hand slumped, and told him about how Wen Xueruo almost fell down in the imperial garden earlier, but was helped by Emperor Su Fang.
"Is the emperor hurt?" The British duke listened and saw her look frightened and uneasy, frowning and asked urgently.
But Mrs. Wen shook her head repeatedly, gritted her teeth and said, "No. The emperor left her in the palace!"
The British Duke's expression suddenly changed, and he slammed the table, causing the tea set on it to clang, "What nonsense! Are you back like this?"
Seeing that he was angry, Mrs. Wen wiped her eyes and cried, "What else can I do if I don't come back?"
The British Duke was angry and frightened. He fell back and sat down with a dejected look on his face. He sighed and said, "It's too late. I'm afraid there is no room for change."
In the past two years, Emperor Sufang has done a lot of ridiculous things.
Everyone knows that he is addicted to women.
This time, since he left his daughter in the palace, how could things turn out well?
The British duke felt as if a big stone was weighing on his heart, which was so heavy that he couldn't breathe.
He glanced at the lady beside him and sighed: "Just wait."
It was absolutely impossible to bring their daughter back today. They could only swallow their breath and wait for the palace to issue an order.
The British Duke said with a tired look on his face and full of regret: "Although the marriage with the Changping Marquis Mansion is just mediocre, it is still better than entering the palace!"
"What kind of marriage?" Mrs. Wen didn't know about this and couldn't help being surprised when she heard this.
The British Duke stood up and shook his head: "Lin Yuanzhi, Hou of Changping, is the right age for Sister Luo. I was originally interested in him and was waiting for you to come back to discuss it in detail tonight. Anyway, the matter is over. Fortunately, I
I only vaguely revealed my intentions to him, and I never hired a matchmaker to negotiate a deal."
However, thinking about the character of Emperor Su Fang, the strength of the imperial concubine, and the prince of the East Palace, he couldn't help but feel high in his heart.
He knew very well that his daughter had a restless temper. With the imperial concubine's temperament, she would not be tolerated.
The British Duke was very worried, and Mrs. Wen didn't feel much better either.
The couple stayed up all night, but did not expect any news the next day.
No one came to announce the decree, or even to deliver a message.
The British public was a little anxious.
Another day passed and nothing happened.
The British public thought that it would be useless to wait any longer, so they asked Mrs. Wen to enter the palace to ask for an audience with the imperial concubine, and to ask about the situation.
Mrs. Wen had no choice but to enter the palace again after two days, but this time she never saw the face of the imperial concubine.
The imperial concubine is ill and it is inconvenient to see people.
Mrs. Wen was sent back just like that. After the couple discussed it, the situation was so bad that they could no longer wait around.
What will happen if the daughter stays in the palace without a name or status, neither accompanying the princess nor a palace official?
The British Duke had to go to the palace in person to meet the emperor. He had already made plans not to see him, but he never thought that Emperor Sufang would actually meet him.
The British official said that Mrs. Wen was ill and he was thinking about his little daughter and wanted to take her home to take care of her illness.
Looking at the current commotion, Emperor Sufang had no intention of banning Wen Xueruo. He simply didn't think about it. He just hoped that he could bring his daughter home alive, which would be great.
But after hearing what he said, Emperor Sufang suddenly sneered and asked, "Why are you afraid that I will eat your daughter?"
When the British prince heard that something was wrong, he quickly knelt down and said he didn't dare.
Emperor Su Fang sneered again and again: "Don't you dare? You have come to me and lied, what else do you dare not?" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly votes,
