"Then we'll talk about it when my son wakes up." Seeing her like this, Mu Zheng lost his composure. He just pitied her and did not pursue the matter further.

"But now, the crown prince is in a coma and is on the verge of death. Today is the seventh day, but there are still no signs of him waking up. The reason the Emperor said this is obviously to excuse her guilt. " As the empress spoke, she began to cry in despair. She felt that the man she loved deeply had made her sad, but also despaired.

Even though she was the empress and had an incredibly prestigious status, she was also a mother. She was also worried about her son and hoped that her husband could stand on her side.

"Esteemed Empress, your daughter understands your feelings right now. She knows that you love her dearly and that the crown prince has his own talents. He'll definitely wake up." Seeing the empress act this way, Xue Ruoyun couldn't help but feel some sympathy for her. When she thought about how she lost her parents when she was young, what she longed for the most was to be able to enjoy this natural joy one day. As a result, when she saw the empress in this state, she actually felt sympathy and understanding for her.

"Shut up, you demoness! I'll beat you to death!" At this moment, when the Empress heard these words that came from the bottom of his heart, he was not unmoved. On the contrary, he felt that he was pretending to be adept and knowledgeable in front of the emperor, and the resentment in his heart only grew. As he said this, he suddenly rushed up, caught off guard, and raised his hand to fiercely slap Xue Ruoyun's face.

Xue Ruoyun wanted to make a move against her, but thinking that she was Mu Zhuoyun's mother after all, Mu Zhuoyun had saved his life before. Moreover, he was unconscious on the bed right now. Whether it was in public or private, he couldn't do anything to her. So she closed her eyes and was not prepared to resist.

Mu Zheng didn't expect that the normally dignified and proper Empress would suddenly make such a move. By the time she reacted, it was already too late. With a "pa" sound, everyone present was shocked as they saw this. The empress's slap was too forceful, so when she retracted her hand, the pain was still there. She regretted it even more. She looked at her hands that were trembling and her heart ached for her tears. "Oh, how could it be you? I didn't do it on purpose, my son, why did you have to go through so much trouble just to worry about your mother. "

"What?" Hearing this sound, Xue Ruoyun finally opened his eyes. It turned out that Mu Zhuoyun had walked in without her knowing. She had stood in front of Xue Ruoyun and helped her receive the slap.

"Mu Zhuo, how are you?" Xue Ruoyun reacted, pleasantly surprised. He quickly supported Mu Zhuoyun and anxiously asked.

Mu Zhuoyun glanced at her. With great effort, a relaxed smile appeared on her pale face. "I'm fine."

"Aiyo, my precious darling, you're actually awake! You're scaring your grandmother to death!" When the Empress Dowager saw Mu Zhuozhi descending from the sky, she was extremely excited. Trembling, she walked down from her throne.

The empress embraced Mu Zhuoyun and caressed his face as she sobbed, "My son, you must be worried that your mother will die."

Mu Zheng looked at Mu Zhuo and was overjoyed as well. His eyes were filled with an unspeakable lustful expression.

"Imperial Mother, Imperial Grandmother, I'm fine. I'm making you worry, your grandson is unfilial." As Mu Zhuoyun spoke, he endured the pain on his body and was about to kneel down.

"It's good that you're fine. It's good that you're fine." The empress dowager pulled Mu Zhuo's hand and sighed, then thought of something. "Good grandson, we're here today to avenge you and punish this evil woman." The empress dowager was so excited that she was trembling as she pointed at Xue Ruoyun.

However, Mu Zhuoyun took a glance at Xue Ruyun, then he painfully knelt down. "Mother, Royal Grandmother, you've all misunderstood. Xue Luoyun did not harm your son. Instead, she is your son's savior!" As she spoke, she recounted everything that had happened that day in detail.

"Ah, so that's how it is." When the empress heard this, she fell to the ground. The empress dowager almost lost her balance, but fortunately, Senior Servant Gui reached out to support her. Only Chang Le pursed his lips and didn't seem to mind.

"I already said it wouldn't be done by Xue Ruoyun." Hearing this, Mu Zheng sighed in his heart. He looked at the Queen meaningfully for a moment before opening his mouth.

"Esteemed empress dowager, so we've all misunderstood this child, Xue Muyun." Senior Servant Gui couldn't help but remind the empress dowager. The empress dowager knew that she had wrongly blamed Xue Ruyun. She had saved her grandson, but she had repaid him with kindness and enmity, almost causing both of her hands to become crippled. He had wasted his usual benevolence, eating and chanting. If he was one step too late, who knows how many merits he would have lost?

The empress looked at her hand, then looked at Xue Ruyun. Her face was full of guilt, and she was ashamed.

Senior Servant Gui supported the empress dowager as she reminded her, "Empress Dowager, he's actually the crown prince's savior." Should we go and thank them? "

Her Majesty nodded repeatedly. "Yes, yes." As he spoke, he walked forward and held onto Xue Luoyun's hand. "Your child has wronged you."

Xue Luoyun lightly smiled, and modestly said, "It's fine. I can understand your feelings." Her Majesty looked at her with mixed feelings. This child was truly an outstanding child. His heart was so broad, and his heart gradually began to have a better impression of Xue Muyun.

"Since this is all a misunderstanding and the misunderstanding has been resolved, let us rejoice and let this matter be known to the world."

"Right, right. That's how it should be." The empress echoed him a few times, but this was the only way to make up for her loss.

Mu Zheng glanced at her, his eyes sharp. He remembered that Mu Zhuzhe's injuries had yet to heal, hence he patted his shoulder with concern. "You just woke up and became weak. Go back and rest."

"Yes, royal father." Mu Zhuozhi agreed and walked up to Xue Luoyun. "I'm sorry for what I did today. I caused you to suffer." Mu Zhuoyun looked at Xue Ruyun with an apologetic expression. For the past few days, he had been dreaming of her white robes as she led the horse around. Today, however, she walked further and further away from the dream, disappearing from his sight. Mu Zhuang was greatly alarmed. His hand moved, and he woke up.

When the people around her saw that she had woken up, they cheered and ran off to inform her. She asked about the people around her and found out that the empress and empress dowager were interrogating Xue Luoyun in the main hall. His heart was burning with anxiety. He ignored the people around him and endured the pain as he rushed to Ning Longevity Palace. He didn't expect to see the scene before him just as he reached the entrance.

"It's fine, didn't you also save my life? We're even now." He couldn't bear to look at his swollen and red face. 'I'll come and see you another day.

"Really? I'll keep my word." Mu Zhuoyun's eyes lit up.

"Definitely."

Hearing Xue Luoyun's promise, Mu Zhuoyun left with some reluctance.

Seeing that Mu Zhuoyun had left, everyone knew that the Emperor was purposefully avoiding him. Now, he was settling accounts. Looking at Mu Zheng's ashen face and expressionless face, she knew that this was the time when he would be the most angry, even though she had accompanied him for so many years. Only now did he remember that his actions just now were truly improper, and he started to feel fear.
