CHAPTER 17 - KILL YOU
The empress dowager's voice was cold and detached, obviously because she was already very dissatisfied with the Zhong Miao Yi.
With her personality, even if she were to get married in the future, it would harm the reputation of the imperial family. Furthermore, her status before returning to the palace would not be good enough, and it would already be a mercy for the imperial family if I did not pursue this matter. With her Majesty's words, the Emperor no longer had the mood to refute.
Compared to the Su Family, the's empress dowager was from the Su Family. It could be said that half of the Great Qi's territory was supported by the Su Family.
The Zhong Miao Yi didn't have any background, nor did she have anyone to rely on. She only had a little bit of the Emperor's pity and guilt. Therefore, it was already a great honor to be told off to someone like Tang Yao.
Her Majesty had made up her mind to punish her, even if she was not of that nature.
With a few words, she stirred up the empress dowager's interest. "You've always been the one who understands the general picture. It's really inconvenient for the emperor to handle political affairs. This emperor was originally thinking about returning to the capital in a few days. It's time for the lotus to bloom."
"That's right, the empress dowager loves lotus flowers the most. The empress is really into lotus flowers." Imperial Consort De suddenly interrupted, covering her mouth and laughing lightly. There were some words in her arms that seemed to be mocking the Queen for trying to flatter him.
The empress dowager glared at Imperial Consort De. She was indeed a little too arrogant, after all, the empress was a Legitimate Wife. Even if the empress wasn't that favored, the Su family was too tyrannical.
Imperial Consort De's mood dwindled after being glared at by the empress dowager. She turned her head away dejectedly and said no more.
The two of them knelt under the scorching sun. Soon, both of them were drenched in sweat. Since Zhong Miao Yi wasn't in a very good condition, she felt a little dizzy, almost losing control of her brush.
Tang Yao turned his head to the side and looked at her. He asked worriedly, "Are you alright?" "How is it?"
Zhong Miao Yi took two deep breaths before shaking her head. "I'm fine. I'll just bear with it for a while and then pass. Look, the empress dowager is still watching us. Don't piss her off. I'm fine."
Tang Yao frowned as he looked at her disapprovingly. Even he felt somewhat unable to endure this, much less her.
But everything Zhong Miao Yi said was true, indeed. No one could afford to offend the empress dowager again. If he resisted too fiercely right now, Zhong Miao Yi's future days would be even more miserable.
Perhaps it was because it was too boring, or perhaps it was because her initial breath had been relaxed, but after sitting for a while, the Empress really did not want to look at it anymore, she got up and went back, only telling her that she had to kneel for two hours before she could get up.
When the empress dowager left, everyone relaxed a bit. Even Lady Qingxiu rose to her feet and walked over to stand closest to Tang Yao.
Seeing his own son defending the Zhong Miao Yi like this, his heart was filled with mixed feelings.
At first, she had been afraid that Tang Yao would disobey her orders, but now, he had angered the Emperor. When Tang Yao had said that he liked the Zhong Miao Yi, she had actually let out a sigh of relief in her heart.
Yet now, he had suffered so much for the sake of this princess. As a mother, there was really no way for her not to feel heartache.
She secretly wiped her tears and asked, "Have you prepared the soup for the summer?"
"Madam, everything is ready. Don't worry, young master will be fine." "After all, it's true that Princess Yunqi fell into the water. It's common for the empress dowager to be angry, but since the punishment has been passed on, it won't affect young master. After all, the emperor still dotes on Princess Miaoyi, isn't it?"
It was true that Her Majesty did not like it, but the love of the Emperor seemed precious.
For a moment, Lady Qing Xiu didn't know whether this was a blessing or a curse.
After the most poisonous period of the day, it wasn't that difficult to bear. After the empress dowager left, most of the people went hunting, shooting, and shooting. After watching the first wave of liveliness, there actually weren't many people who paid attention to Zhong Miao Yi and Tang Yao.
Only Yun Mengqi proudly rode on a fine horse and circled around the two of them: "It's hot, it's uncomfortable, isn't it? [You really can't learn to be good. Do you think I am someone you can offend? "Tsk."
She gave a disdainful sneer and a look of superiority.
Tang Yao was so angry that he almost spat out fire. He put down his pen and coldly said, "Princess Miaoyi is my fiancée now. After we return to the capital, I'll request the emperor's decree. No matter what kind of misunderstanding you have, I hope you won't make things difficult for her. She won't have anything unnecessary to do with Brother Ze Yi!"
Yun Mengqi was stunned for a moment before she dismounted from her horse and walked over to Tang Yao. She squatted down and asked, "Tang Yao, do you know what she did in the past?"
Tang Yao stared blankly at Nie Yan.
"She used to be a Courtesan Belle. Do you know what she does? You dare to marry a girl who rolled out of the dust? How do you know if she seduced Zeyi behind his back? "She's just a prostitute, a shameless slut. Don't mind her too much. Maybe one day you will find out that you've truly fed the dog and still want to thank me?" After Yun Mengqi finished speaking, the corners of her mouth slightly lifted. Seeing the increasingly ugly expression on Tang Yao's face, she slowly stood up.
Zhong Miao Yi's hands froze, that's right. In the eyes of Su Zeyi and Yun Mengqi, she was just a prostitute.
No, wasn't she the same in most people's eyes?
However, since you want to marry her, it will naturally be good. If I find out that she is pestering brother Ze Yi, then she will not be a virtuous woman. At that time, her reputation will be terrible to listen to. Yun Mengqi slowly walked in front of Zhong Miao Yi and shook her head while clicking her tongue, "Look at you, the rouge on your face has all been used up, it's not beautiful anymore."
Zhong Miao Yi glanced at her. Yun Mengqi was very beautiful, especially when she smiled so complacently, she thought that Zhong Miao Yi was not convinced and immediately put her head close to her ears, "Zhong Miao Yi, you better be careful. Calm down and be your Tang Family's wife, and if I find out that you and Zeyi aren't on good terms, I'll kill you."
