"No way, this girl looks so gentle and beautiful, how could her heart be so ugly?"

"For a woman to be so jealous before even getting married, what will happen if I marry her? I was just thinking about whether I should consider my son's feelings, but I think I'll pass now!"

"Forget it. Marrying a woman like that would definitely cause chaos in the household. She did such an outrageous thing just because someone didn't praise her. She's so petty!"

As Gao Yufei and her group began to smear Su Liluo, the women around them also started pointing and gossiping about her.

Gao Yufei looked at the people around her criticizing Su Liluo, and couldn't hide her smugness.

Finally!

She also let Su Liluo experience what it felt like to be pointed at and scolded.

The Regent's wife looked furious, as if she had caught her red-handed.

She roared again, "Didn't you hear me tell you to kneel down? Kneel down now, apologize to Miss Zhifu, and then kneel outside for an hour after you apologize!"

"Your Highness, don't you investigate the truth of the matter? You believe everything they say without question? In that case, it's no wonder that such a thing as covering up the truth and deceiving the emperor has happened in the Regent's harem."

Su Liluo showed no fear whatsoever. Instead, she stood ramrod straight and calmly addressed the Regent's Consort.

"How dare you speak to my mother like that! Do you know your place now?"

Before the Regent's wife could speak, Gao Yufei couldn't help but point at Su Liluo's nose and curse.

This Su Liluo is now living under someone else's roof, yet she still dares to speak to her mother so arrogantly. I really don't know where she gets the courage!

The others were equally astonished as they looked at Su Liluo, wondering who she was that dared to talk back to the Regent's Consort!

It should be noted that there is no Empress Dowager in the Northern Desert. Apart from the Empress and Imperial Concubines in the palace, the Regent's Wife is the most honored woman in the Northern Desert. In fact, the Empress in the palace is not as honored as the Regent's Wife.

Because the empress was merely a figurehead, the majority of the power in the Northern Desert was actually in the hands of the regent. Therefore, even the empress had to be polite to the regent's wife.

But how dare this woman of unknown origin speak to the Regent's wife like that?

For a moment, everyone couldn't help but become curious.

"Shouldn't you all know my identity? Why do I need to tell you how you removed me from Daliang—"

"Shut up! It was clearly the Crown Prince of Liang who didn't want you, but you secretly followed us here, trying to elope with my brother. Stop talking nonsense!"

Before Su Lilu could finish speaking, Gao Yufei anxiously interrupted her.

She couldn't let everyone know that Su Liluo was kidnapped by them, otherwise it would affect her father's reputation. Besides, she only wanted everyone to think that Su Liluo was a shameless woman.

"Really? You're quite good at deceiving yourselves. It seems you've forgotten—"

Just as Su Liluo was about to expose the Regent's despicable and shameless side in front of so many people, hoping to damage his reputation, her words were once again annoyingly interrupted.

What are you doing?

This time, it was the regent who interrupted her.

He walked out of the crowd with a sullen face, first glancing at Su Liluo, then at Gao Yufei and the Regent's Consort.

"Father, you've come at the right time. It was Su Liluo who pushed Miss Zhifu in the garden. We've only come to seek justice from her and make her apologize to Miss Zhifu."

But not only did she not apologize, she also talked back to her mother and father. With such a lack of manners, wouldn't she be ruining her brother's future marriage?

Gao Yufei once again falsely accused someone.

Upon hearing this, Gao Changhong glanced at Lu Zhifu beside him and saw that she looked aggrieved, as if she had really been bullied by Su Liluo.

He pondered for a moment and felt somewhat suspicious. Why would Su Liluo push her when everything was fine?

However, Lu Zhifu's background was not simple either; her father and brothers were all officials of the third rank or above, so they couldn't just be perfunctory.

So he looked at Su Liluo and Lu Zhifu and asked them a question each.

Did you push her? Why did you push her?

"Did she push you? What conflict happened between you that led to this?"

"Your Majesty, I was merely praised by the princesses for being gentle and virtuous, a typical lady of a noble family. For some reason, this Miss Su took a dislike to me, and when I walked up to her, she pushed me."

Su Liluo didn't speak, but the girl called Zhifu spoke gently and slowly.

Anyone who saw her like this couldn't help but feel sorry for her. Compared to Su Liluo, who showed no remorse or fear on her face, she was the one who had been bullied.

But the Regent was different from them. He still looked at Su Lilu with suspicion, "Is what she said true? Did you really push her because of this?"

"Regent, you actually believe that? Or do you really think I'm interested in being your daughter-in-law?"

Su Liluo gave him a mocking look.

Gao Changhong looked slightly embarrassed.

Indeed, how could Su Liluo bully a noble lady over such a trivial matter?

She didn't want to stay in this palace at all. If I hadn't used Gu to control her emotions, she would probably be causing an even bigger scene right now.

He glanced again and saw his daughter's eyes shining with pride. At that moment, how could he not understand?

So he said irritably, "Forget it, this must be a misunderstanding, let's not dwell on it anymore!"

"Feifei, you are a princess. You are responsible for not taking good care of the guests. Your father will talk to you after the banquet!"

"Father!"

Gao Yufei exclaimed in surprise.

She never expected that even with all the evidence, her father would still favor Su Liluo. It was infuriating!

Meanwhile, the Regent's wife, seeing Gao Changhong openly favoring Su Liluo, was also filled with jealousy.

It must be because of that face!

He still can't forget that bitch!

That's absolutely damn good!

The Regent's wife grew angrier and angrier, and finally slammed her fist on the table: "No! How can this be left like this? At such an important banquet today, she so blatantly disregarded etiquette and law. She must be taught a lesson!"

"Guards, take Miss Su away and lock her up. Without my order, no one is to release her!"

"You dare!"

Upon hearing this, the regent immediately turned stern and spoke fiercely to the queen.

Today he was going to take this opportunity to announce Gao Junning and Su Liluo's marriage, so how could he let people be dragged down like this?
