The Empress Dowager smiled faintly, ”The Prime Minister has taught me well, and I can trust that. However, if Consort Ning did that kind of thing in front of so many people, even if I have the intention to help her, I don’t know how to ask. This is something that I’m sure the Prime Minister knows as well.”
He knew, of course he knew!
It was because it was in front of so many people that made him want to make a big deal out of it, but he couldn’t!
Su Mingyuan furrowed his brows and was about to say something when a sharp voice suddenly came from outside the door.
“His Majesty has arrived!”
The bright yellow figure walked in from outside, walking to the centre of the hall without looking askance, “My son greets the Empress Mother.”
The Empress Dowager smiled, “Your Majesty does not need to be polite, sit down.”
“Thank you Empress Mother.”
Su Mingyuan also wanted to salute the emperor at this moment, but Di Bei Yu lightly flicked his hand, “Prime Minister Su sit, I know what you want to say.”
Su Mingyuan’s movements just stopped, “Yes.”
The three people in the hall seemed to be even more awkward than when there were two people just now, and it was as if the smell of silence still permeated the curling incense.
After a long time, Su Mingyuan sighed and took the initiative to open his mouth, “Your Majesty, I don’t know how Miaoer’s body …… is now?”
Di Bei Yu faintly said, “Prime Minister don’t worry, Consort Ning’s body is already greatly improved.”
Simply alive and in high spirits.
Thinking about this, Di Bei Yu’s eyes sank, and added, “If Prime Minister Su misses it, I can issue a decree to charter her to come here and take a look.”
Concession?
Su Mingyuan lowered his eyelids and tugged his lips in self-deprecation, his daughter was the star-studded Lady Ning a few months ago, but now she has become a cold palace abandoned consort who needs to be licensed for even a normal father-daughter meeting.
He slowly rose from his seat and gave a respectful salute, “Your Majesty, the old minister does not seek to see her, he only wishes her well.”
After a pause, “The old minister heard that the emperor has gone to see her in the past two days, I think the emperor is also thinking of the past love …… If you still have affection for her, I only hope that you can look at the fact that she lost most of her life to spare her this time. The old minister guarantees that she will never dare again!”
Guarantee?
How?
In just a few days of work, she had already slipped out of the Cold Palace several times, I’m afraid that after waking up from the hanging, Consort Ning was even harder to manage than before.
Di Bei Yu let out a cold laugh, at least that woman used to be more disciplined and didn’t dare to move against him like this.
Now she simply wants to climb on top of him!
There was another long period of silence in the great hall.
The Empress Dowager looked at his dark and uncertain face and probably understood what he meant, and spoke out to break the silence, ”Prime Minister Su, it’s not that His Majesty is heartless towards Concubine Ning, but that Concubine Ning has gone too far wrong this time. Moreover, even if the emperor has the intention to release her, if such a precedent is set, how can the women in the harem be managed in the future? Wouldn’t this be telling all the concubines that they can treat the palace rules as nothing?”
Su Mingyuan lowered his eyes, “Empress Dowager’s lesson is correct, but ……”
“Empress Mother is only half right.”
Di Bei Yu suddenly interrupted him, “I had already planned to release Concubine Ning.”
The moment these words came out, both of them were stunned.
The Empress Dowager looked at him in surprise, and after Su Mingyuan reacted, he said joyfully, “Is what the Emperor said true?”
“Naturally.”
The man looked at him faintly, “Only …… Ning Fei does not intend to come out.”
Su Mingyuan’s face changed again, “Why?”
Di Bei Yu continued, “Consort Ning said that as long as I go to see her often, she would rather remain in the Cold Palace.”
“What?!”
Is that daughter of his crazy, is her brain stuffed with grass in addition to love affairs?
