The Empressâs mouth hooked into a having-prevailed smile: âIf you can tear up that loan receipt, then this Empress promises to use all her strength to help you destroy that engagement.â
âYou donât believe me?â The Empress saw Su Luo did not speak and she gave a cold humph.
âI believe you.â Su Luo said faintly.
The Empress naturally did not want Nangong Liuyun to marry someone from the Jade Lakeâs Li family. Because, if that were to happen, with the support of the Jade Lakeâs Li family, then what could the Crown Prince bring to the fight when he was already at a disadvantage from before?
Therefore, even if Su Luo didnât make the promise, the Empress would use every means to destroy this marriage. Now, the Empress saying this to her was merely to bully her. figuring she didnât know the critical point within.
Su Luo was silent.
She was silent not because of the Empressâs words, rather, she was observing a moment of silence for Emperor Jing.
If he really dared to draw up the engagement contract with the Jade Lakeâs fairy on Nangong Liuyunâs behalf without asking him, what kind of stuff would Nangong Liuyun do? She was convinced that when the time came, the pressure on Emperor Jing would be huge.
The Empress saw that Su Luo was silent, and believed this matter was in the bag. The smiling expression at the corner of her mouth became increasingly more self-satisfied.
âBring it over.â The Empress extended a white, jade-like hand towards Su Luo.
âBring what?â Su Luo pretended, with her entire face looking confused.
âSu Luo, donât pretend to be naive, you need this Empressâs assistance, otherwise, His Highness Prince Jin will definitely marry Li Yaoyao.â The Empress blunty said everything, leaving it out in the open, âTherefore, bring me that loan receipt.â
All of a sudden, Su Luo smiled, her smile was splendid like a blooming flower: âEmpress, Our Mother, in your eyes, am I just that stupid?â
âYou...what did you say?â The Empress stared at that splendid smile on Su Luoâs face in astonishment. These words spoken by Su Luo made the Empressâs eyes momentarily contract.
âEmpress, Our Mother, if the Jade Lakeâs fairy were to marry Nangong Liuyun, the Jade Lake palace would use their full strength to support Nangong Liuyun. When that time comes, then the Crown Prince wouldnât have a thread of opportunity. Once the Crown Prince loses all his influences and power, then presumably, Empress, Our Motherâs, days, would also not be so good.â
Su Luo smilingly looked at the Empress, with every word she spoke, the Empressâs complexion would become paler.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âTherefore, the person that wants the most to block Nangong Liuyunâs marriage to the Jade Lakeâs fairy is you, the Empress. Why should I be worried?â Su Luo spread out her hands, smiling innocently.
The fury on the Empressâs face grew without restraint.
She never expected that this loathsome girl was not incited by her into disharmony, and also wasnât poisoned by her words. In the end, she actually reversed the words and checkmated her!
The Empressâs chest moved up and down violently, âYou are a loathsome girl that doesnât know what is good for you! Nangong Liuyun is willing to protect you, but can he protect Su Manor? You are forcing the entire Su Manor into hell!â
Su Luo again shouted out loud in astonishment. âEmpress, Our Mother, even if you loathe me, you also shouldnât move against Su Manor ah!â
This voice was simply earth-shattering, resonating to the skies.
Not only the people nearby in the Imperial Study could hear it clearly, even those maids and court eunuchs in the far distance could hear every word.
The Empress was so infuriated that her face flushed red!
When she was married, she was already high above as the first wife. After becoming the Empress, she again was one person above everyone. Never had there been anyone who dared to contradict her like this.
The Empress, utterly discomfited, grabbed the official blue and white porcelain teacup by her hand, swung her arms and directly tossed it at Su Luoââ
When that teacup was a handâs width away from Su Luo, Su Luo very rudely sat her butt on the ground, evading the attack of the teacup.
Su Luo had already made preparation for when the Empress would act out violently, therefore, her reaction was very fast.
At the same time, Nangong Liuyunâs figure had already appeared.
One could only see his sleeves raise slightly, a burst of wind unfurling.
âBangâââ that teacup did not end up on the ground, rather, it was spun around by Nangong Liuyunâs wide and long sleeves. It directly shot towards the Empressâs forehead!
