The butler panicked and raised his hand to cover Su Lihua's mouth. However, thinking that it was against the rules, he could only be anxious. "My good lord. Just think on the bright side! Although the young miss 'mother had passed away, the people behind her doted on her dearly. It's fine if Old Master doesn't like this daughter! You can't let others spread the name of Master mistreating Di daughter!”
"In the end, Madam Wang is just a concubine! In the Minister's Residence, only the Eldest Miss was the true Di daughter! She was the real deal! Master, why don't you understand? If you don't like the Young Miss, you can just not see her. You should give her everything you want so that she won't be criticized.”
Also, once the reputation of mistreating the Di daughter spread. What he had to face was the suppression of the people from the Marquis's Residence, and the Empress who was the mother of the world.
"I understand." Su Lihua said after a long time. However, when he said this, his eyes were filled with an incomprehensible forbearance.
He had been an official for so many years. If it weren't for someone at home reminding him at all times, he would have forgotten the first time he fell into the official career. However, he was more frustrated than ordinary people. He was originally the deputy envoy of the Supreme Court, but he was framed and demoted to the West Region as a judge.
If he hadn't grabbed the heart of the second daughter of the Marquis of the Anguo Manor at the last minute, and thus received the Marquis's full support, he would definitely still be a judge in that broken place of the West Region, where he couldn't even get much profit.
"Butler. You go down first. Let me think about it." Su Lihua pursed her lips and did not look at the butler again.
The butler sighed to himself. As a slave, he could not interfere with his master's affairs. Now, he was only relying on the fact that he had been with his master for a long time and could more or less talk to him. When things reached an extreme, they would turn against each other. If they were pushed too hard, they would instead delay things.
When the butler knocked on the door and left, Su Lihua had already raised her head and looked at the door that had just closed.
What he wanted to get rid of now was this daughter who stayed in his Minister's Residence to remind him of his disgraceful past. She was his biological daughter. She should not live without his heart.
As a father, he had the right to decide the future of his children. His children were his, so it was his business if he wanted to beat them to death.
He thought so, but it did not mean that he did not listen to the butler. On the contrary, he listened to everything, but the effect was the opposite of what the butler had expected. The butler's words today made him even more determined to get rid of Su Xinyan.
The sun was shining brightly outside. The scorching sun made people sweat in the early autumn. The palace was hot and stuffy, and even Lianqi Building was covered in ice, making it feel cold.
After the Emperor had two bowls of lotus seed soup in the Magnificent Bestowal Pavilion, he left the Magnificent Bestowal Pavilion and went to the royal study to deal with the memorials. As for Su Xin Yan, she was asked to stay for lunch by the Empress because the sun was too bright outside.
Su Xin Yan was having her meal in the Jade-knot Pavilion, so Murong Yixiu naturally stayed behind to eat with her. It was rare to see such liveliness in the Magnificent knot Pavilion. This liveliness was purely like the liveliness of family members. The smile on the Empress 'face did not fade for a long time.
After Su Xin Yan embroidered the wings on the handkerchief, she handed it to the owner of the handkerchief, Murong Yixiu. After that, she went to talk to the Empress and the Eldest Princess Murong Yixiu in the Hall of Joyous Markings.
It was nothing more than talking about the character of a young lady in the capital, or some interesting news.
Finally, at the beginning of the fifth hour, the Empress mentioned the main reason why Su Xin Yan had entered the palace today.
Su Xinyan looked at the man who was led in by Youzi. If she stood next to this man, she would probably only be under his armpit. He looked like he was sixteen or seventeen years old.
The man lifted his robe and knelt down, bowing to the Empress and Murong Yixiu. However, it was obvious that he did not know who Su Xin Yan was. He did not bow to her and only nodded to show his respect.
"His name is Lian Qing, and he is fifteen years old this year. Although he is only this age, but Lian Qing's wisdom far exceeds Yi Xiu's.”As the Empress spoke, she looked at Murong Yixiu dotingly," The most important thing is that he has been trained strictly since he was young. Although his skills are not top-notch, he should be able to protect you." From now on, he will follow you.”
Lian Qing raised his head in surprise and exclaimed,""Niangniang, your servant was sent by the emperor to serve niangniang. This servant believes, this servant believes that this servant should serve niangniang well.”
He was a person with self-esteem and had always been proud of his ability as the emperor. Later, he was given the title of empress by the emperor because he stood out among that group of people. He could accept it and did his best.
Now, he had to serve someone who came out of nowhere. He could not accept this fact.
He had been in the palace since he was young, and he had only left the palace a few times when he was fifteen. Therefore, he only knew the nobles in the palace. He didn't even know those who didn't have a high status in the palace, let alone those outside the palace.
Those in the palace whom he did not know were those whom he felt there was no need to know. After all, he was directly subordinate to the Emperor and later to the Empress. There was no need to get to know other irrelevant people.
The Empress's face darkened, dissatisfied with Lian Qing's reaction. Murong Yixiu's expression wasn't any better, and she almost cursed out loud.
On the other hand, Su Xin Yan had a calm expression. The next moment, he took two steps forward and slowly knelt down in front of the Empress. She didn't care that this action had already made the Empress frown and the Eldest Princess beside her who wanted to get up. "Empress. A gentleman does not rob others of what they like, nor does he force others to do what they want. Since Young Master Lian Qing was unwilling to leave, if Xin Yan forced him, wouldn't she be a bad person?”
Lian Qing was still kneeling. When he heard this, he looked up in surprise at the back of the girl who was also kneeling. She pursed her lips, not knowing what to say.
The Empress glanced at Lian Qing unhappily, then looked at her niece who wanted to scold but couldn't bear to." You little girl. Bengong wants you to take Lian Qing in because Bengong is worried that you will have some difficulties in the Minister's residence. Lian Qing is a capable person. At least he can protect you when necessary.”
The Empress gave Lian Qing to Su Xin Yan because she believed that Lian Qing had the ability.
Su Xin Yan knew the Empress's painstaking efforts, but Su Xin Yan turned to look at Lian Qing behind her." Aunt, Yan 'er doesn't want this person. Although he had some martial arts, even if Yan 'er accepted him, she might not be able to control him.”
One moment, she called the Empress Xin Yan, and the next moment, she called her aunt Yan Er. Su Xin Yan moved back and forth between the two, but she grasped it perfectly.
Murong Yixiu's eyes darted around. No one knew what she was thinking. She was still sitting on the stone couch. She took a sip of Longjing tea and enjoyed the fragrance of the tea.# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:05820186: 27PM #Cancel Review All: wdd201302 Time:09 16 2019 1:34PM
