Chapter 152 Do I have to take her with me even when I go to the toilet?
Empress Shen snorted coldly, not expecting him to arrive so quickly.
"Yu'er, weren't you discussing official business with Lord Wang? Why are you here with me?"
"Your Majesty, I have finished my business and came to pay my respects, but I was surprised to find Your Majesty angry. May I ask what has caused Your Majesty's anger?"
Xiao Jingyu's expression changed. After recognizing that the person was Su Yan'er, he stopped giving her a second glance.
However, after the earlier obstruction, the nanny supporting Su Yan'er stopped and stood still, waiting for further judgment.
In just that brief moment, Su Yan'er realized what power truly was.
If the person who just came hadn't been the Fourth Prince, but someone else, she probably would have been beaten to death by now.
The man before her could now keep the Empress in check. If she became his woman, then no one in the world would be able to bully her.
Su Yan'er made up her mind; she wanted to stand at the top of power, and she wanted to make good use of the child in her womb.
Su Yan'er held back her sobs and looked at Xiao Jingyu with pleading eyes, begging him to take her away. As long as she could stay by his side, she would have plenty of opportunities.
She knew that no man could resist her delicate appearance, so she maintained it.
Even though Xiao Jingyu no longer looked at her.
Empress Shen never expected that her son would interfere in this vile woman's affairs. Wasn't he only interested in Qin Wan?
"Today, Consort Yan held a flower-viewing banquet, and this person was not among the invited guests. I suspect that she intends to enter the palace with ulterior motives, which is why I summoned her to inquire. What? Is that not allowed?" Empress Shen wanted to see how much this woman meant to her.
Xiao Jingyu frowned slightly. Her mother and Consort Yan had always been at odds. If something really happened at this banquet, her mother would be happier than anyone else. How could she possibly care about what happened at the banquet?
He knew that this was her excuse for punishing people.
"Mother, this person is Su Yan'er, the adopted daughter of the Marquis of Pingding. She is the descendant of a loyal minister. If something happens to her here, it will be difficult to explain to Father and the court officials. I beg you to hand her over to me. I will certainly not fail to find out why she came to this flower-viewing banquet!"
He is already under heavy impeachment because of the salt smuggling scandal, and this matter cannot be allowed to further affect him.
Su Yan'er is just a woman, what evil intentions could she possibly have? How could Mother be so confused today?
Upon hearing this, Empress Shen leaned forward slightly, and her son began to disobey her wishes.
However, Empress Shen was not angry, but rather a little happy, because her son would finally not only be able to see Qin Wan alone.
I thought this slut was just deliberately seducing me, but I didn't expect her to have some tricks up her sleeve, managing to lure her son to Cining Palace to save her.
This person could perhaps be used as a tool to keep Qin Wan in check.
Thinking of this, Empress Shen gently smiled and said, "In that case, I'll leave this person to you. Make sure you find out the real purpose of this person's attendance at the banquet!"
Xiao Jingyu was in a daze for a moment, and just agreed like that?
"Yes! Your subject obeys!"
Su Yan'er could finally breathe a sigh of relief; she didn't have to die!
......
Pingding Marquis's Mansion.
"What did you say? Yan'er was kept in the palace by the Empress?" Han Shu roared, a cold sweat breaking out on her back.
They all knew what kind of person Empress Shen was, and that it was impossible for Yan'er to return safely if she was left in the palace.
"Yan'er was left in the palace, so why did you come back?" Qin Yi was certain that Qin Wan was behind this.
Otherwise, why would she be so kind as to bring Yan'er to the flower viewing banquet? So that's what she was waiting for.
"I think you did this on purpose, you just wanted to kill Yan'er!" Qin Yi's words were still as harsh as ever.
Qin Wan despised Qin Yi's words, finding them utterly unreasonable and utterly meaningless.
"This morning she begged me to take her to the flower viewing banquet. When we arrived at the Imperial Garden, I was summoned to Yonghe Palace by the Sixth Princess and Consort Yan. As for who she offended and what she did in the Imperial Garden, only she knows."
Qin Wan sneered inwardly. Now they still wanted to pin the blame on her? She wouldn't accept that.
"Although Her Majesty the Empress is strict, she is also the mother of the nation and cannot punish people arbitrarily. If Su Yan'er has truly not offended Her Majesty the Empress, then naturally there will be no problem. If she has offended her, then she deserves it, and this has nothing to do with me!"
Upon hearing this, Han Shu began to panic. Yan'er had never attended a banquet alone before. How could she possibly take good care of Yan'er...?
"Wan'er, Yan'er is still young, how could she be left alone in the palace? Why didn't you stay with her? Also, you were summoned to Yonghe Palace, why didn't you take Yan'er with you? Why did you leave her alone in the Imperial Garden..."
"So, does that mean I have to take her with me when I go to the toilet?"
Qin Wan found it laughable; Su Yan'er really held a significant place in their hearts.
"But you can't leave her alone in the palace!"
"The Empress only summoned her. If I go, wouldn't that be disobeying the imperial decree? Does Mother want the Marquis's mansion to also bear the crime of disobeying the imperial decree?"
Qin Wan exaggerated the matter, and after she said this, no one dared to speak anymore; they just glared at Qin Wan resentfully.
"The message has been delivered. You should quickly send people to wait at the palace gate. Don't be too late, or Su Yan'er won't be able to return once the gates are closed!"
After leaving a message, Qin Wan turned and left. She was tired and just wanted to get a good night's sleep.
No sooner had Qin Wan left than Qin Lang arrived. He was very anxious upon hearing that Su Yan'er had been left in the palace.
I only wish my wheelchair could go faster.
"Second Brother, you're still injured, why did you come out!" Qin Yi quickly went up to Qin Lang when he saw him coming.
Qin Lang glanced at Qin Wan's retreating figure and asked, "What happened? The servants said Yan'er hadn't returned. How come she's back?"
Qin Wan followed Qin Lang's gaze and glanced in Qin Wan's direction, then glared fiercely at Qin Wan's back.
"Who knows what she's up to? I think she's doing it on purpose. We're not sure what she's up to, but she's deliberately framing Yan'er!"
"So what's the situation now? Has anyone been sent to the palace to inquire?"
Although Su Yan'er had made it clear that she no longer wanted to marry him, in Qin Lang's heart, Su Yan'er was already his, and he wanted to take responsibility for her to the end.
Naturally, he also cared a lot about Su Yan'er's affairs.
Han Shu sobbed, wiped away her tears with a handkerchief, and said, "We just heard about this, and haven't had time to ask anyone in the palace to inquire about it yet!"
"Then what are we waiting for? Send someone right away!" Qin Lang was anxious, wishing he could teleport to the palace to check the situation.
But as soon as he finished speaking, the gatekeeper came running over.
"She's back! Miss Yan'er is back!"
came back?
Everyone was stunned and hurriedly headed towards the main entrance.
Qin Yi ran a few steps, then suddenly smiled and said that Qin Lang was still sitting in a wheelchair. He then turned back and took the wheelchair from Qingyan.
They quickly pushed Qin Lang towards the main entrance.
Upon arrival, they not only found Su Yan'er unharmed, but also Xiao Jingyu who had come with her.
