Consort Xu Xian smiled prettily and asked, "Why is Older Sister not going in? Could it be that you have done something wrong and are kneeling to ask His Majesty for forgiveness? Why not Younger Sister go in and plead for Older Sister? "
The Empress gritted her teeth, "No need."
In the previous dynasty's battles, it often involved the women in the Inner Palace. When Prince Zhou's faction and the Crown Prince's faction fought, it not only represented the dragon throne but also the people behind them. If the Crown Prince were to fall, how long would the Empress' position last? There would be a day when Emperor Wen Hui would grow old and if Prince Zhou were to sit on the dragon throne, what kind of ending would the Empress have?
There were countless of dirty tricks in an official's residence and it was even more so in the Inner Palace. If one was not careful, one would lose one's life and one's family would be implicated. How could one not be careful in their lives?
Consort Xu Xian smiled, "If Older Sister is not willing, Younger Sister will not force. But Younger Sister still have things to say to His Majesty and will not disturb Older Sister's interest. "She covered her mouth and laughed before sending someone to inform Emperor Wen Hui.
The Empress could not wait to scratch Consort Xu Xian's face. The Empress could almost guess what Consort Xu Xian would say if she went in now. It was nothing more than adding oil to the fire. Emperor Wen Hui had always listened to Consort Xu Xian's words and one fear that his anger towards the Crown Prince would be even higher.
But she was unable to stop Consort Xu Xian.
Consort Xu Xian was about to go in when she saw a person rushing over from outside. Upon seeing Consort Xu Xian, she said apologetically, "Consort Xian, His Highness Prince Rui is outside and is requesting to see His Majesty."
Prince Rui? Consort Xu Xian and the Empress were startled at the same time. What was Prince Rui doing here at this time?
Even though Consort Xu Xian was usually arrogant and willful, it was not that she did not know what was going on. That arrogance was just a small temper towards Emperor Wen Hui, but she dared not be careless in big matters. She immediately said, "Then I will come back later."
The Empress was after all older than Consort Xu Xian by a few years and had seen more of the court's matters. Her heart sank. Prince Rui did not come earlier or later but came when the Crown Prince met with an accident and Emperor Wen Hui had issued the letter of conviction. One fear that his intentions were not good.
The close attendant by Emperor Wen Hui's side quickly came out and spoke a few words to the person who reported before the person went out. The Empress and Consort Xu Xian, one was kneeling and one was standing when one saw a young male dressed in purple walking in.
He wore half a silver mask and had a leisurely expression. The Empress felt ashamed and angry for no reason. As the Empress of a country, she was seen in such a sorry state by an outsider. Consort Xu Xian looked at the other's face and was slightly dazed. Some people were born very strange. It was hard to see what their appearance was like, but their noble and elegant aura was enough to make people admire them. It was as though as long as he stood there, the gazes of others would fall on him.
Prince Rui walked past the Empress and only glanced at her. There was not much meaning in his eyes and his footsteps did not stop, as if he did not see the mother of the country kneeling in front of the hall. But this was definitely not because he understood the Empress so he pretended not to know. Even though Prince Rui did not reveal any expression, the Empress felt that the other party was just too lazy to look and it was the disdain and contempt that was revealed from the bottom of his heart.
She was mortified.
In the study, Emperor Wen Hui was sitting in front of the table. His performance was light and steady, as if the person who was in a rage in the study was not him.
It was just that his back was somewhat stiff.
The purple clad youth walked in from outside and lazily called him Your Majesty as a greeting. After that he walked to the opposite of him and sat down. He sat casually, as if Emperor Wen Hui was the guest and there was no trace of respect or worship in his eyes.
That look made Emperor Wen Hui have a feeling that in front of this young man, he did not count as anything.
