"Then will you blame Consort Mother?" Suddenly, the Empress asked.
Song Yu was already a little uncomfortable with her abnormal behavior today, and now she even asked such a sensational question. It made Song Yu feel like she was dreaming, so she pinched herself secretly.
He wanted to see if she was really dreaming again, but the pain came as expected.
Song Yu quickly understood that this was not a dream. He hurriedly shook his head and said,"Consort mother, you must be joking. How could this subject blame you?”
Would she dare? Besides, there was no point in blaming him.
However, what Song Yu did not expect was that the Empress was actually a little touched when she heard that she did not blame him. Her eyes were slightly moist as she covered her face and twitched twice. She looked like she was crying tears of joy.
Song Yu was really stunned by what she saw. She could not help but praise her acting skills in her heart!
But at the same time, she still wanted to ask, what was the Empress up to today? Until now, she did not understand at all. Was her reaction too slow or was the Empress hiding too deeply?
It was probably because her reaction was too obvious this time that the Empress and Red Aunt could see it.
In the end, it was the Empress who explained rather awkwardly and helplessly,""Actually, the hearts of parents are the same in the world. Although Yu 'er's mother was very strict with you in the past, her love for you is true. So this time, Consort Mother really cares for you…"
If these words were said by an ordinary mother, Song Yu would still believe it. After all, all parents in the world were pitiful.
But when the Empress said that it was still at this checkpoint, Song Yu was really somewhat skeptical. However, she still nodded obediently." Yes, Consort Mother, don't worry. Everything will be fine."”
Just as Song Yu was about to probe a little more before telling the Empress about Xiao Fengtian's true identity…Unexpectedly, before she could start probing, the other party replied again,"If you can think like this, then you can rest assured. However, don't worry about the matters in the court. Consort Mother will get the Minister of Justice, Lord Qin, and Lord Zhong to assist you. With their help, there shouldn't be any major problems.”
Originally, the Empress had good intentions. After all, she knew what kind of role her daughter played.
Letting Song Yu become the crown prince was too much of a force, and she knew nothing about the strategy of governing the country. If no one helped her, there would definitely be a big mess. That was why she was so kind as to help her to relieve her pressure.
Normally, this would not be a big deal. At most, Song Yu would ask a few more questions. He could only ask about the Empress's thoughts, but times were different now, especially after what happened last night.
At the mention of Zhao Huai, the Minister of Justice, Song Yu's expression changed.
"Consort Mother, do you mean to let them assist your son?" Until…"
She didn't dare to say the rest of her words, nor was she willing to say them, because deep in her heart, she didn't want the Empress to be as Xiao Fengtian had said. He had only treated her as a tool, and the way he had dealt with her in the end was too frightening.
However, the Empress, who was completely unaware of this matter, still smiled and replied," Of course, that's what Consort Mother meant. As for the rest, don't think too much about it. After all, your Imperial Father is healthy now. As for what happens next, let's take it one step at a time.”
What the Empress said was the truth. Dealing with the matter at hand was more important than anything else. As for the high position of the Emperor, she had already secretly vowed that even if she died, she would never let her daughter sit on it.
How could she do such a ridiculous thing?
Now that she thought about it, Yu 'er was the one who had thought things through. She was the one who had not thought things through.
Unfortunately, she didn't finish her sentence, and Song Yu felt a chill run down his spine when he heard her reply. What did he mean by telling her not to think too much? This was clearly a delaying tactic.
It seemed that she was really as Xiao Fengtian had said. She was really stupid to have heard it with her own ears last night. Why did he still have such an unrealistic obsession in his heart?
After sighing helplessly in his heart, Song Yu forced himself to smile and said,""That's good, then everything will be arranged by Consort Mother.”
Wasn't that what she wanted? Song Yu would just give it to her.
"Alright, Consort Yu 'er mother is really happy that you finally understand Consort Mother's painstaking efforts.”The Empress was quite touched when she heard this. She did not notice the difference in her daughter at all.
On the other hand, the silent Hong Nu saw that the little master she had seen since she was young had a different expression today. She could not help but frown deeply as if she was thinking about something.
Originally, the Empress was prepared to keep Song Yu for dinner. To her, today was an important day for the reconciliation between mother and son. But Song Yu really couldn't continue acting, so he said that he had something to do and had to go back to the residence first, so this dinner didn't go on.
"Your Highness, is there something on your mind?”Aunty Hong sent her out of the palace. On the way, she couldn't help but ask.
Her behavior today was very different from usual, although Aunty Hong did not know what the problem was. However, her intuition told her that something must have gone wrong. Otherwise, Song Yu wouldn't have such an expression.
Song Yu never thought that even the Empress did not notice, but she actually saw through the flaw.
He was stunned for a moment before he hurriedly chuckled and said,"Aunt Hong, you must be joking. I don't have anything on my mind. It's just that Consort Mother is too good to me today and I'm not used to it for a while.”
After saying that, she scratched her head like a child. This was the most familiar action of Aunt Hong.
Therefore, he felt much more relaxed. He smiled and said,"Actually, Your Highness, this servant knows that ever since your last accident, you have been in a bad mood. Your temperament is very different from before, but this servant feels that no matter how much you change, you will never be able to change your blood relationship with the Empress. Moreover, the Empress is truly doing this for your own good. There may be some things that are not done in the right way, but her heart is unquestionable.”
Sincere? Was the Empress really sincere towards her?
Song Yu was shocked when he heard this and wanted to continue asking. Unexpectedly, at this moment, a palace maid walked over in a hurry." Aunt Hong, Manager Cui from the laundry bureau is looking for you. He has an urgent matter to ask you to go over immediately."”
Wasn't the laundry bureau a place that was specifically responsible for washing clothes for the harem? Could it be that something went wrong with the Empress's phoenix robe?
"Are we going now?" Aunty Hong's expression changed slightly when she heard this. Did something happen?"
"Yes, it is said that the Empress 'phoenix robe is damaged.”The palace maid replied respectfully.
The damage to the phoenix robe was not a small matter. Hearing this, Song Yu immediately said,"Aunt Hong, you should go over first. Don't delay the official business because of me. Rucheng and the others are waiting outside the palace gates.”
This, this…
Aunty Hong weighed the pros and cons and finally nodded.""Then this servant will respectfully send off the Crown Prince." At the same time, the palace maid hurriedly bowed and sent Song Yu off.
