She took a deep breath and said, neither humble nor arrogant: "Your Majesty, I want to explain one thing. The King of Qin was just my delusion when I was young and frivolous. Now Lan Ruo knows very well that the King of Qin is not a good match."
Emperor Ming narrowed his eyes and looked at her: "Tell me, why is he not a good match anymore."
Ming Lanruo was obviously married, even though she was married to a dead man, but she still insisted on calling herself a minister's daughter instead of a minister's wife.
This made Emperor Ming unhappy, but he didn't bother to argue with a little girl over her little tricks. After all, he still had to give Duke Ming some face.
But she insulted his son so bluntly, which made him feel annoyed.
Ming Lanruo raised his head and said coldly: "The King of Qin is a romantic man. If he had Lan Ruo in his heart back then, he would have proposed marriage to you and the Queen. He only has world domination in his heart, and Lan Ruo has already given up on him!"
Listening to Ming Lanruo's words, Emperor Ming's eyes suddenly changed: "You said that King Qin only wants to dominate the world?"
The emperor is on the throne, and there is someone sitting on the throne of the prince.
How can a prince, no matter how favored he is, dare to think about hegemony in the world? This is because he has evil intentions!
Ming Lanruo nodded and said softly: "Yes, King Qin is a man who only works for great causes. How can he really love a woman? Therefore, he lied to me and deceived me. Lanruo will never have anything to do with him in this life!"
There were some things that she needed to explain clearly and express her attitude in front of Cang Qiao and Emperor Ming.
Cang Qiao narrowed her eyes and looked at her unpredictably, so she decided to let go after seeing clearly that King Qin didn't have her in his heart?
When the emperor saw this, he believed most of Ming Lanruo's words.
Just because Ming Lanruo talks about this kind of love and affection, and looks like a short-sighted woman who hates her because of her love, it is even more worthy of belief.
The emperor looked at Ming Lanruo who said nothing and said coldly: "Ming Lanruo, you are very courageous. Don't forget that King Qin is also my son!"
Back then, this girl and the prince spent one night together in a restaurant and got pregnant. Everyone thought she belonged to the prince, even though it was scandalous to be pregnant before marriage.
But he still endured it, and just demoted her from the future position of the concubine of the East Palace to a side concubine. But in the end, the news from Dongchang was that the prince had never visited her, and she did not admit that she was the prince's child!
It was really a great shame and humiliation. If Cang Qiao hadn't begged for mercy, he would have killed this girl who was unruly and insulted the royal family!
He even doubted whether the seed in her belly belonged to his other son, King Qin. After all, everyone in the capital knew how much this girl loved Shangguan Hongye.
But this is not something that can be investigated, nor should it be investigated.
Five years later, she has such contempt for Shangguan Hongye?
Emperor Ming fell into deep thought.
"Lanruo was angry just now and spoke uncontrollably. Please be punished by Your Majesty." Ming Lanruo lowered her eyelashes and suddenly spoke again.
She pretended to hate the King of Qin because of her love, which could not only resolve the emperor's suspicion of her seducing the prince, but also plant suspicion of the King of Qin in his heart.
There was no father or son in the royal family, so Emperor Ming only had the seeds of suspicion towards King Qin in his heart.
One day, she will let the "seed" germinate and ruin King Qin's future!
There's no reason why she's been suffering all these years while some despicable man who plotted against her should live so comfortably, is there?
The emperor looked at Ming Lanruo and suddenly laughed: "Let's get down to business, since you saved the Queen Mother, I need to clearly distinguish rewards and punishments. You should think carefully about this reward."
Ming Lanruo glanced at the hem of Cang Qiao's python robe, and there was a strange light in her bright eyes: "Your Majesty, any reward is acceptable?"
The emperor really believed her!
"What do you want?" the emperor asked with a smile, as if he was very generous.
Ming Lanruo knew very well in her heart that if she really made any substantive request, this mean and ill-informed Majesty would probably feel that she was not appreciated.
Cang Qiao also looked at her with interest, as if curious about what request she would make.
Ming Lanruo looked at the emperor and suddenly said - "Your Majesty, I have something important to report to you. I just want to report it to you alone."
The emperor looked at Cang Qiao doubtfully and hesitated: "This... you don't want your uncle to know?"
Cang Qiao stared at Ming Lanruo expressionlessly.
The emperor frowned at Ming Lanruo and motioned for her to come forward: "Just come forward and speak in a lower voice. I will make my own judgment on whether I want to tell Aiqing or not."
Ming Lanruo didn't care, she stepped forward and respectfully leaned into his ear, whispering secretly: "Your Majesty, I accidentally discovered..." This chapter has been completed!
