After Hua Jin Yi was dragged away, there was a dead silence in the Scripture Pavilion.
The Empress Dowager’s entire person seemed to have aged ten years, waving her hand and saying nothing as she slowly left.
But just before she stepped out of that door, the emperor’s voice resounded behind her again, “Mother Empress, since the dust has settled, taking advantage of the fact that today’s royal family members and the important officials of the imperial court are all here tomorrow’s Imperial Empress’s sacrifice to heaven will be replaced by Su Miao.”
A low cry suddenly rang out from all around.
Who was present who still didn’t understand the emperor’s meaning, this was clearly the intention to establish a queen.
However, the crowd already knew the status of the past Xianfei in the emperor’s heart, and after that incident just now, where would anyone dare to oppose.
The Empress Dowager smiled astringently, “Whatever the Emperor wants, let it be.”
Everyone left one after another.
Inside the large Tibetan scripture pavilion, only two people were left in an instant.
Su Miao’s wrist was still being held, she tried to pull it out, but the force that fell on her wrist suddenly increased.
“Di Bei Yu ……”
Su Miao closed her eyes and tilted her head back to look at him, “You have known about the Bellwether Technique for a long time, but that day when I asked you, why didn’t you answer me?”
The man in front of her slowly turned around, his dark eyes fell on her face, focused and deep, “These are not important.”
She opened her mouth, almost immediately reacted, baffled, “You still …… don’t believe me?”
Right, even if she knew about the clockwork technique so what who could say whether she knew it at first, or whether she knows it today.
So again, who can say why exactly she left five years ago?
She was suddenly a little amused and lowered her eyes, “If that’s the case, why did you just tell the Empress Dowager that way?”
[In the beginning, she left me because she couldn’t bear to see me being tormented by this, so she tried to find a way to fulfil me and Hua Jin Yi.]
The man cupped her chin and lifted it, forcing her gaze to meet his, “I said that none of this matters.”Dark, thick eyes gripped hers tightly, “Regardless of why you left in the first place, I still love you today and will accept that.”
Not just accept, but uphold.
From the moment he saw her, he changed his mind originally the guard who pretended to be a monk only needed to stand quietly on the side and wait for judgement, but this person turned out to be her, so he took this opportunity to expose her to everyone’s attention, to salvage her reputation that was completely destroyed back then.
“Su Miao, you were never unseen.”His voice was low, “After we return to the palace, we will consummate our marriage.”
Su Miao stiffened for a moment.
Should she be thankful?
Even if he felt that she was a woman who was evil to the core, he still loved her, accepted her, and protected her.
She suddenly bit her lip, a little aggrieved and a little moved.
Forget it, she thought, it doesn’t even matter.
“After your question, is it my turn?”The man’s handsome face is close at hand, and even moved forward a few more points, and when he spoke his breath was sprayed all over her face, “It’s not that I won’t let you come, who told you to sneak in?”
Su Miao’s gaze flickered, don’t look away, “I said last night that I want to go out of the palace, you promised yourself.”
The man raised his eyebrows, his fingertips not lightly pinching her earlobe, “Did you say you want to come to Dragon Temple?”
“…… You speak properly, don’t pinch me.”
“Do you know what I was thinking at the first sight of you just now?”
The man seemed to be smiling, his voice then directly poured into her eardrums, “Otherwise, you can try wearing that monk’s robe back again, hmm?”
