Chapter 969

Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao did not object, and the group left the upper study room and headed for Chaoyang Palace.

In the Chaoyang Palace, the empress was talking to the minister's wife with a smile all over her face, looking proud.

Mrs. General Wang looked at her daughter worriedly.

She thought about the fact that the queen asked her to propose marriage to the Xie family on behalf of the concubine in the family. She had told the queen before that the concubine of their family was not worthy of Miss Du Yan, but her own daughter told the wives of the courtiers that it was specious if.

If these words reach the ears of Master Xie and Madam Zhou Guo, I'm afraid they will not be happy, and His Majesty will not be happy either.

Mrs. General Wang couldn't figure out why her daughter would do this.

She stared at Du Yan thoughtfully, and understood in her mind like lightning that the empress did this because she was clearly afraid that His Majesty would take a fancy to Du Yan, so that she would accept Du Yan into the palace.

General Wang's wife felt powerless when she thought of this, and she didn't know what to say to her daughter.

If your majesty has the heart, you can't prevent it. If you have that kind of thought, you might as well use it on your majesty, treat your majesty well, sincerity can be exchanged for sincerity.

What's the matter with you? It will only annoy His Majesty more and more.

Mrs. General Wang decided to have a good talk with her daughter later.

At this time, she felt indescribably tired. It was too worrying for her to worry about everything even though her daughter was already a queen.

Just as General Wang thought about it, the eunuch's shrill voice came in from outside the palace: "Your Majesty is here."

In the hall, everyone hurriedly got up and went out.

The queen's heart skipped a beat, and her eyes subconsciously looked at Shangguan Yunyan on the side.

At this time, she didn't think that His Majesty would be angry if he knew what she had done. At this moment, she was only worried that His Majesty would be moved when he saw Shangguan Yunyan.

But even though she was worried, the queen still led the court lady to the gate of the palace.

"The concubine welcomes His Majesty."

Xiao Wenyu walked in with Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao, followed by Qin Mo.

As soon as he came in, he first looked at Shangguan Yunyan, and he was relieved when he saw that she was fine.

Ever since he knew that Shangguan Yunyan was also a child of his mother's life, he treated her as his own sister.

Xiao Wenyu walked in with someone, stood in front of the queen, and didn't speak for a long time.

All the courtiers and wives in the palace were a little inexplicable. They didn't look up, but they felt that the emperor seemed to be angry, and the object of anger was the empress, otherwise they would have ignored the empress for a long time.

Mrs. General Wang's heart sank. She thought of Xiao Wenyu's visit to Du Yanxiang. His Majesty would not be annoyed by this.

If so, His Majesty really took a fancy to Du Yan? But even if His Majesty takes a fancy to Du Yan, it's nothing. He can treat his daughter wholeheartedly for so many years.

General Wang's wife felt that even if His Majesty Nadu Yan entered the palace, there was nothing wrong with her daughter, it was her daughter who did not live up to expectations.

In the hall, Xiao Wenyu waited coldly for the queen for a while, and then slowly said: "Get up."

Although the emperor didn't say anything, it was the first time that Wang Mengyao gave the empress down in front of outsiders. Wang Mengyao only felt her brain buzzing. Your Majesty is waiting, will they respect her as before when they see her again?

Wang Mengyao's eyes turned red involuntarily. Why did His Majesty treat her like this?

Xiao Wenyu ignored the queen, and looked up at Shangguan Yunyan, the eighth princess of Xiliang Kingdom.

Shangguan Yunyan saw Xiao Wenyu looking at her, and also looked up at Xiao Wenyu.

She thought of the reason why the queen gave her a marriage appointment before, but now she looked at Xiao Wenyu, and couldn't help but take a few more glances.

To be honest, the emperor of the Great Zhou was indeed young and handsome, a dragon and phoenix among rare people.

But Shangguan Yunyan didn't think that she would do something like robbing other people's men, so she didn't plan to remarry in this life, she just wanted to be with her own mother.

So Queen Wang really thought too much.

Shangguan Yunyan gave a little blessing to Xiao Wenyu, and her beautiful phoenix eyes moved away indifferently, and landed on Lu Jiao's body.

Looking at her eyes like this, Xiao Wenyu felt strangely uncomfortable and slightly disappointed.

But soon he turned his gaze away and looked at Lu Jiao: "Madame Zhou Guo is not in good health, you can take someone out of the palace first."

Lu Jiao originally wanted to give the queen some face, and she would go back after the palace banquet, but now listening to Xiao Wenyu's words, she knew that Xiao Wenyu didn't want to give the queen any face.

She could only follow the trend: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Hu Lingxue and the others and said, "Then let's go out of the palace first."

Hu Lingxue and the others nodded, and Shangguan Yunyan followed them all the way out. She never looked at Xiao Wenyu again from the beginning to the end.

At this moment, all the courtiers and wives in the palace understood one thing, something was wrong with the empress.

Your Majesty, who has always doted on the Queen, actually slapped the Queen in the face.

It seems that the situation between them is quite serious.

In the main hall, the queen couldn't bear it at last, and said, "What do you mean, Your Majesty?"

She looked at Xiao Wenyu with red eyes, Xiao Wenyu ignored her at all, turned around and wanted to leave, but the queen asked irrationally: "Will your majesty not give my concubine an explanation?"

Xiao Wenyu asked Xie's family to leave first, obviously to slap her in the face, why did he embarrass her like this.

She was a queen who set up a palace banquet, and His Majesty asked Xie's family to leave first, and said Mrs. Zhou Guo was not in good health. If Mrs. Zhou Guo was really in poor health, she would have sent a post to the palace long ago.

I believe everyone in the palace understands this.

The emperor slapped her nakedly in the face.

Wang Mengyao almost cried.

General Wang's wife never dreamed that her daughter would ask the emperor in front of the wives.

Didn't she embarrass herself more by doing this?

General Wang's wife had a terrible headache, but she didn't wait for the queen to speak, and said first: "Your Majesty, empress, my wife is not feeling well, and I want to go back to the palace first."

After General Wang's wife finished speaking, she gave her daughter a warning look.

Queen Wang woke up.

The other wives in the palace also stood up to say goodbye, and finally only the emperor and empress were left in the palace, and even the eunuchs and maids withdrew.

Wang Mengyao finally couldn't help crying: "Your Majesty, why do you treat my concubine like this? If you treat my concubine like this, those people will probably despise my concubine in the future. If you are not satisfied with my concubine, why don't you tell me your concubine behind your back?" , insisting on embarrassing the courtiers and concubines in front of all the wives."

Xiao Wenyu didn't soften his heart because of her crying, but looked at her coldly: "Because I have always tolerated your words, you will never know how to restrain yourself."

He looked down at Wang Mengyao condescendingly, and said slowly, "I ask you, what is your purpose in calling a foreign woman into the palace today?"
