Chapter 9: This imperial aunt has double happiness and is in a good mood

Su Yurou's mind worked quickly and she soon realized that she had figured out Yun Qingqing's trick and accused her on the spot.

She knew best how much the prince hated Yun Qingqing, and she fully expected that he would speak for her.

Xiao Zirui's eyelids were twitching wildly. Even though the Regent had been paralyzed and blind for a few years, his power was still overwhelming and his name as the God of War was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. He hadn't even secured his position as the Crown Prince yet, so how could he offend him at this critical juncture!

Looking at Su Yurou's face that was almost swollen like a pig's head, he became even more angry and rushed up to her and slapped her!

"Don't stop talking!"

Su Yurou was stunned by the slap.

Xiao Zirui pointed at her nose and scolded:

"What nonsense are you talking about? When did I ever propose marriage to the Yun family? The betrothal gifts were borrowed by the emperor's uncle to propose marriage to the emperor's aunt. When is it your turn to talk nonsense here? Why don't you apologize to the emperor's aunt right now?"

“W-what…it’s like this…how could it be!?”

Su Yurou was completely stunned.

That ugly thing was obviously trash that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wouldn't even bother to look at, how come she became the Emperor's aunt in the blink of an eye!

At this moment, the Queen spoke:

"In that case, Su Yurou was indeed wrong in this matter. She made unwarranted accusations against the Regent Princess without knowing the reason. She should apologize."

Su Yurou had a pale and swollen face. She was extremely reluctant but had no choice but to pinch her palm tightly, suppressing her hatred and whispering:

"I was wrong about what happened today. I apologize to you..."

Yun Qingqing glanced at her coldly:

“You apologize to your elders so lightly, is this the good upbringing of your Su family?”

Su Yurou's face was burning with anger, her eyes were filled with tears, and she looked like she was being bullied, biting her lips tightly.

Prime Minister Su wanted to plead for his daughter, but he saw the Regent put down the cup heavily with a bang and snorted coldly.

His eyelids jumped, and he immediately stepped forward and kicked Su Yurou's calf, angrily saying:

"Why don't you kneel down and kowtow to the Emperor and apologize!"

Su Yurou was kicked and fell to her knees on the ground with a plop. She looked at the Prime Minister in disbelief, but heard him lower his voice and say:

"You've offended the regent. Do you want to kill my whole family?"

Su Yurou's heart trembled, and she could no longer care about so much. She gritted her teeth and kowtowed:

"I was wrong! Auntie, please be magnanimous and forgive me this time!"

Yun Qingqing smiled and waved her hand:

"That's what a good niece should do. I'm in a good mood today because I'm getting married and breaking off an engagement. I'll forgive you this time!"

Su Yurou was so angry that she almost vomited blood, and her nails almost broke her palms.

Xiao Changheng listened to the little girl's words, which were obviously about taking advantage of her. He lowered his eyes, took a sip of tea slowly, and covered the corners of his mouth that he couldn't suppress.

Xiao Zirui was so angry that his liver ached. This was clearly a woman he looked down upon, so why did she seem so happy now that the engagement had been broken off?

Do you think that this will make me change my mind and look at her more? What a joke!

He clenched his fist, took a step forward and said:

"Father, I have something else to do today. I hope you will grant me and Su Yurou a marriage!"

The emperor heaved a sigh of relief and nodded:

"Well, today was supposed to be the day for you two to get engaged. Well... since there have been some twists and turns, I will make the decision and grant you two a marriage."

He pondered for a moment and said:

"Let's set the wedding date as well. How about the eighth day of next month?"

The Su family's father and daughter showed joy on their faces and quickly knelt down to express their gratitude. At the same time, they felt relieved that they had not lost the position of Crown Princess.

Xiao Zirui thanked him but did not leave immediately.

He glanced at Yun Qingqing meaningfully, then turned to Xiao Changheng and said respectfully:

"My nephew will be getting married on the eighth day of next month. The Crown Prince's Mansion is waiting for the Emperor's uncle and aunt to come!"

Yun Qingqing watched Su Yurou lower her head to hide her smug expression, and a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes.

Haha, this scumbag deliberately invited his ex-girlfriend to his wedding. What good intentions could he have!

She immediately spread her hands and said:

"Even though I can't go to celebrate for the prince, I think the eighth day of next month is a good day, so I plan to set the wedding date on that day!"

Xiao Zirui's expression paused:

"But I heard that the emperor's uncle wants to welcome the emperor's sister-in-law into the palace tomorrow?"

"You also said that my prince is just thinking about it. It hasn't been decided yet, has it?" Yun Qingqing rolled her eyes at him, turned around and looked at Xiao Changheng with a smile:

"Your Majesty, His Majesty said that the eighth day of next month is a good day, so it must be right. How about we get married on that day?"

Xiao Zirui and several members of the Su family's faces changed.

What a joke! The prince’s wedding is such a grand event, all the civil and military officials in the court will come to congratulate!

But if the Regent also got married on the same day, who in the court would dare not go to support him? Wouldn't the Crown Prince's Mansion be left out?

Xiao Zirui was so angry that he almost scolded Yun Qingqing for deliberately picking a fight, but he held back.

He thought bitterly in his heart that Yun Qingqing was so stupid that she actually thought she could influence the regent's decision. Little did she know that her behavior would only make him disgusted!

She didn't have to do anything, just wait for the Regent to scold her for being ignorant!
