When Su Miao’s miscarriage was first rumoured, most of the people were sympathetic towards the woman who was about to be crowned Empress.
To think that at the beginning, she had stayed away from the palace for the emperor, and now she had lost a child.
As a woman, how pitiful!
But gradually, the winds of discussion about Su Miao were not quite right anymore
“You guys say, why can’t she keep just one child? It was like this back then, and it’s like this now?”
“Could this woman be incapable of giving birth to a child?”
“More than not being unable to give birth to a child, she is an ominous person! Don’t you realise that everyone related to her will suffer, not only those women in the palace before and after five years, but also their entire Su family, and even the Emperor and the Dragon Seed …… in her womb, all of them will be in trouble!”
“I’ve heard that she practises evil arts and destroys the qi, it’s really unsettling!”
“………”
I don’t know where the windy rumours flowed out from, quickly spreading and spreading throughout the streets and alleys of the capital.
The emperor ordered to suppress it, but the more he did, the more the rumours spread and became more and more true to form!
Almost everyone decided that Princess Xian was an unknown woman!
…………
Two days later, it was the Empress Dowager’s birthday.
Originally this birthday banquet is to be held, feast full of civil and military and even their families, just because the palace these two days the atmosphere is tense, so there is no big do, just the royal relatives of the clan into the palace to give the empress simply congratulate the birthday to eat a meal.
The imperial garden was filled with seats.
The empress dowager sat on the main seat, looking at the bottom of the crowd, smile and kind but also vaguely through a few points of vicissitudes.
The crowd guessed that it was because too many things had happened in the past few days.
Princess Cold went forward and advised, “Empress Dowager, it will all be fine, you don’t have to worry too much.”
The Empress Dowager barely revealed a smile, “Good, I know you have a heart.”
Princess Cold sighed, “Both the Emperor and the Empress are still young, there will still be children.”
The Empress Dowager was about to speak, but was interrupted by another conspiratorial voice, “Where are there any more children, the rumours outside are not empty, Consort Xian such an unsettling person I’m afraid she can’t give birth to a dragon seed.”
This person was none other than Princess Changle, the sister of the late emperor, the aunt of the current emperor!
Princess Rui lightly glanced at her, “Chewing on Consort Xian’s tongue behind her back without permission, Princess Changle is afraid she doesn’t want to die?”
Consort Rui has always been of a gentle nature, and today’s suddenness like this really startled the crowd.
Changle Liang smiled, “Wangfei, we all know that Xianfei has helped you, but …… it’s not like I’m targeting her, I’m just telling the empress dowager about the rumours in the capital.”
The crowd chimed in, “Yes, that’s how it’s rumoured outside!”
“Oh?”
Just at this moment, a voice with a smile came from outside the door, “What rumours?”
The crowd was startled.
Being caught red-handed while badmouthing someone behind their back was really not a pretty sight.
And ……
Seeing the bright yellow figure beside Su Miao, a hint of panic flashed across the faces of all of them unanimously, “See you, Your Majesty, see you, Your Highness!”
The crowd rose to salute, only the emperor’s face was cold, not saying a word.
The air around them all seemed to quiet down, the atmosphere was weird.
The Empress Dowager was helpless, “Alright, all of you are excused.”
“Many thanks Empress Dowager!”
The crowd snapped and took their seats.
Only the surroundings remained silent.
Su Miao lightly laughed, “What’s wrong, making it so serious, weren’t we still discussing the rumours outside just now?”
