Chapter 693 is just a piece of stubborn stone!
After being humiliated, Emperor Xuande remained silent with a sullen face.
Dehai, who was standing by, turned pale with anxiety and winked at Song Yanxi frantically.
If possible, he would kneel down to this ancestor now.
He has served His Majesty for so many years. Apart from His Royal Highness Prince Jin, who else in the whole of Da'an would dare to speak to His Majesty like this?
The last person who was so presumptuous was the Concubine Shu, your Majesty’s childhood sweetheart.
As for her end, it was tragic enough.
Now even her name is a taboo that cannot be mentioned in the palace.
He was so cruel to the person who had slept with him and gave birth to his children, let alone his daughter-in-law who had not yet entered the house.
Princess Yong'an speaks to His Majesty like this. Isn't she afraid that he will get angry and order her to be dragged away and beheaded?
Song Yanxi is not not afraid.
She just, had to say it.
Even if she didn't say it today, the little tricks she did behind the scenes could not be hidden from Emperor Xuande's eyes.
Instead of passively waiting for him to know everything, it would be better for her to speak up first, which would give him the impression of being frank.
What did she do wrong?
He just couldn't bear to see his mother suffer so much injustice for so many years, so he wanted to save her from the suffering and, by the way, break off all ties with Song Huai'en, the scumbag father who gave birth to a child but didn't raise her.
Even if it were to be said to the sky, she had done nothing wrong.
Emperor Xuande stared at Song Yanxi gravely and asked in a cold voice, "Girl, do you know that I can punish you just for what you just questioned me?
You can even revoke the imperial decree granting you and Xiaowu a marriage on the grounds of disrespect in front of the emperor."
Song Yanxi's face turned pale, but she still said respectfully, "Your Majesty has given the order, and I have no choice but to obey."
Emperor Xuande sneered, "Since you are so obedient, how about exchanging hostility with the Marquis of Yongchuan for friendship?"
Without any hesitation, Song Yanxi kowtowed to him and said in a resounding voice, "Your Majesty, please revoke your order. I'm sorry, I cannot obey."
With her forehead resting on the cold bluestone slab, she could not see Emperor Xuande's expression, nor did she know that Dehai beside her had already let his heart rise to his throat.
She only knew that even if it cost her life, she would not retreat even a single step.
If she showed any sign of weakness, all her efforts would be wasted and she would lose everything.
God has given her a chance to start over, so she not only wants to avenge her past life's blood feud, but also wants to make life better for those around her.
Song Qirui is already fourteen years old, and the matter of returning to her ancestral home is imminent. If she does not take the initiative, she will have to watch Lian Niang and her mother and son enter the house.
She had seen the faces of those elders in the tribe with her own eyes in her previous life.
When he heard Song Huai'en say that he could read at the age of three and write poems at the age of six, he thought that a rare genius had appeared in the family and he wanted to praise him to the sky.
With such a genius, A-Bo, who was only busy with business, naturally became a good-for-nothing in their eyes.
They were not satisfied with just verbal ridicule, and when he and his mother were kicked out of the house by their scumbag father and left on the streets, they praised Song Huai'en for his decisiveness and said he was a real man.
They were afraid that if they had anything to do with them, they would be charged with treason and collaborating with the enemy.
Obviously, the disaster will not affect the married woman.
Even that heartless beast Lin Tingfeng didn't include my mother and Bai'er when he confiscated the house.
It was Song Huai'en, that worse than pigs and dogs, who drove them out and sent them to his butcher knife.
Those members of the Song family who were often taken care of by her mother, were not willing to stand up and speak a word for them when they were kicked out.
They were just afraid that Song Huai'en would not act fast enough and would implicate themselves.
This family is truly rotten to the core.
Even during the time when my mother had left home, the elders of the Song family came to her house one after another with a shameless face, and earnestly advised her to return home and live a good life for the sake of their brother and sister.
They said that the children were grown up and they had come through so many years. There was no need to go through a divorce at such an old age. It would only make people laugh at them.
As for the bad things Song Huai'en had done in the past and the grievances he had caused her, they were just a few words in their mouths.
"As for men, how many of them don't cheat outside? As long as they know to go home, that's enough."
When they were kicked out of the Yan family, they were still shouting and yelling, saying that they would definitely make their mother regret it.
At that time, even if she wanted to return to the Marquis' Mansion, it would depend on whether they agreed.
Who are they?
After dealing with Song Huai'en, they are next!
After a long silence, Emperor Xuande spoke first.
He sighed softly and said helplessly: "Child, your stubborn temper is exactly the same as your mother's when she was young.
And now you have seen the result of her stubborn behavior."
Song Yanxi looked up at him and said word by word: "Your Majesty is wrong."
"Oh?" Emperor Xuande asked with great interest, "Tell me, what have I done wrong?"
De Hai thought to himself that this was not good, and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, calm down. The princess is still young, so her words may not be taken seriously..."
Emperor Xuande glanced at him and said unhappily, "You old thing, are you really senile and confused?
When I was her age, I would have already become a father."
Dehai said with an apologetic smile, "Your Majesty is teaching me that I am the one who talked too much."
As he spoke, he slapped himself on the mouth and said, "He deserves to be punished, he really deserves to be punished!"
Seeing his partiality, Emperor Xuande said with a half-smile, "It's rare to see you still have sympathy for the younger generation."
Dehai was immediately startled and broke out in a cold sweat. He fell to his knees with a thud and said with a pale face, "This old slave is too talkative. This old slave deserves to die."
Ignoring him, Emperor Xuande looked at Song Yanxi and said, "Girl, please continue.
I really want to hear where this typo came from."
Song Yanxi took a deep breath and said with a firm look in her eyes: "This minister is not my mother."
Emperor Xuande said in a deep voice: "Young man, it is a good thing to be more confident."
As he spoke, he changed the subject and asked, "Are you so sure that you won't regret it in the future?"
Song Yanxi said frankly, "I'm not sure."
Emperor Xuande was amused by her words, "You are quite honest, child."
His expression relaxed slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Girl, you should know that since ancient times, there has only been a father who did not recognize his son, but there has never been a son who did not recognize his father.
Throughout the dynasties, being unfilial to one’s parents has always been a serious crime.”
"I know."
"Since this is the case, you should know what you cannot do."
Song Yanxi nodded, and under Emperor Xuande's helpless gaze, she said word by word, "This subject insists on being that weird person, doing something she knows is wrong."
"You little girl!" Emperor Xuande was furious and said with a sullen face, "How could a man as tactful as Song Huai'en give birth to a daughter as stubborn as you?"
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He added, "He's just a piece of stone!"
Song Yanxi pursed her lips and said with a tone of grievance, "Your Majesty said earlier that I resemble my grandfather. How could you have forgotten it so quickly?"
