Chapter 242: Finish what you are saying immediately
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!"
Su Tan immediately knelt on the ground and bowed to Emperor Qinglong, as if afraid that he would go back on his word. "Long live the emperor, long live the emperor!"
If only she thanked him quickly enough!
Emperor Qinglong had no time to retract his decision.
As for Emperor Qinglong's sarcastic remarks, which even amounted to insults and abuse, Su Tan pretended not to hear them.
not to mention……
Su Tan raised her eyebrows and thought that no good family was willing to propose marriage to her. Whether it was a good thing or a bad thing for her was still debatable!
"you……"
Emperor Qinglong's eyebrows jumped violently, and he choked for a moment. His breath was stuck in his heart, unable to go up or down. He was so frustrated that he almost vomited blood.
"You are hopeless!"
"Never mind!"
"I can't control you. If your father comes crying in my dream, I will have him beaten with twenty sticks!"
Emperor Qinglong's forehead twitched violently. What kind of father is a daughter?
Duke Dingguo is a weirdo.
His daughter Su Tan is even worse than him!
Su Tan listened to this and just smiled, "Your Majesty, don't worry. Your father will definitely not bother you with such a trivial matter."
"If my father were still alive, he would be so happy for me."
Staying single for life may be difficult.
But no matter how difficult it is, it is better than being tortured in the backyard.
It's better than having your steps tied up all the time.
An eagle soaring in the sky should die on a cliff.
Instead of dying in a cage.
Emperor Qinglong glanced at her and said, "You are a nice talker. If you regret it later, just don't cry in front of me."
Su Tan smiled and replied, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will definitely not regret it."
Breaking off all ties with the Song family was the best decision she had ever made in her life.
Emperor Qinglong disagreed and just sneered twice.
She is young now and has plenty of time to do things.
But when she gets older, she will regret her impulsiveness today.
By that time, Song Tingchen had probably already married another wife, and her own son Song Xiao was heartbroken because of her behavior at that time.
At that time, she was all alone, without a husband to love her and children to be filial to her. When dusk fell, she looked at the lights of thousands of houses, but not a single one was on for her. At that time, it was too late for her to cry.
And when that moment comes, he will not regret it after seeing Su Tan!
At the moment, he had no intention of arguing with Su Tan. He just waved his hand, showing a tired look, and raised his hand to press his eyebrows.
"I don't want to talk to you about those trivial things right now. What exactly happened when Chengzhao Palace was struck by lightning today?"
"Master Su, you are very good at fortune-telling. You won't tell me that all this is just an accident, right?"
Emperor Qinglong half-closed his eyes and stared at Su Tan uncomfortably, as if waiting for her answer.
For her own selfish desires, she actually dared to strike Chengzhao Palace with lightning. If she couldn't cover up her lie and couldn't give him a convincing explanation, he would have to punish Su Tan today!
Su Tan lowered her eyes. Since she dared to do this, she was naturally prepared to deal with it.
She pretended not to understand the hidden threat in Emperor Qinglong's words. She just raised her eyes, frowned slightly, counted with her fingers, but was not in a hurry to answer.
She raised her eyes and asked, "Your Majesty, may I ask if any woman has come to your presence these days to ask for a divorce?"
Emperor Qinglong's eyebrows twitched violently, and he almost couldn't breathe. It turned out that Su Tan was not only being rebellious here, but also dragging others into collusion with her!
Emperor Qinglong really felt that his patience was running out.
"Why, are you saying that because Zheng didn't issue an edict approving her divorce, the heavens are upset and want to punish me?!"
Emperor Qinglong did not get angry but laughed instead. He stared at Su Tan with his gloomy eyes, and his eyebrows seemed to be filled with a layer of ice.
"If you say that, you're looking down on the wife of the Duke of Xingguo's son. She was just a peasant girl, and she was lucky enough to marry the Duke of Xingguo's son, and that's how she got to this incredible wealth."
Now, the prince of Xingguo seems to have someone he likes and wants to take a concubine. Unfortunately, the prince's wife is a jealous woman. It would have been fine if she had just cried, made a fuss, and even tried to hang herself at home, but she even dared to go before the emperor and ask for a divorce.
If it weren't for the fact that the Prince of Xingguo still had some affection for this jealous woman, Emperor Qinglong really wanted to issue an imperial decree to grant her a divorce!
Su Tan had just returned to Beijing, and she was well-informed about the news. She knew today what had happened yesterday.
"Why, are you going to tell me that all this is due to that jealous woman?"
Emperor Qinglong's eyes suddenly turned gloomy. He stared at Su Tan closely, and a hint of murderous intent emerged between his brows.
"You'd better think it over. You must be convinced that the lightning that struck Chengzhao Palace is related to that jealous woman in the Duke of Xingguo's Mansion. If that's true, I will decree that she be given three feet of white silk."
Perhaps Su Tan hadn't really counted seriously just now.
However, as soon as he returned to Beijing, he happened to know about the hustle and bustle in the Mansion of Duke Xingguo, so he took the opportunity to put all the blame on the wife of the Crown Prince of the Mansion of Duke Xingguo.
But with just a touch of her lips, without any sound, she could kill a person.
"Su Tan, are you sure that's the truth?"
Before Su Tan could say anything, Song Tingchen was already looking at her with disappointment. There was confusion and regret between his brows, as well as deep sorrow and resentment, and even a bit of disgust.
"Su Tan, how did you become like this now!"
"You weren't like this before. Now, you can easily sacrifice a life for your own selfish desires."
That's a real life!
Just so she could have her marriage without interference, just because she didn't want to marry into the Song family, she would rather sacrifice an innocent woman?!
When did Su Tan become so terrifying, so hideous and ugly? !
Lu Zhiheng frowned, waved the fan in his hand, glanced at Song Tingchen lightly, and said slowly: "General Song, you still haven't changed your habit of only listening halfway."
"Master Su hasn't even finished her words yet. She just asked if anyone had mentioned the divorce. How can you be so sure? She must think this is related to the wife of the Crown Prince of Xingguo Mansion."
"General Song, if you have a brain disease, you should find a doctor as soon as possible. You can't hide your illness and avoid seeing a doctor."
He was cursing Song Tingchen, but Emperor Qinglong felt that Lu Zhiheng was clearly making a veiled criticism.
I don’t know if Lu Zhiheng was taking revenge for Emperor Qinglong pointing at Sui Sui and scolding Su Tan.
Song Tingchen frowned tightly and glanced at Lu Zhiheng with disgust, "Your Highness Prince Chen, please mind your own business!"
No matter how many grievances there are between him and Su Tan, they are private matters between him and Su Tan, and it is not Lu Zhiheng's turn to interfere!
Su Tan asked for the freedom to marry, and just said that she never wanted to marry anyone else in her life!
Did Lu Zhiheng think that if he showed some courtesy and said a few words to slander him, Su Tan would look at him twice more?
"My father is not wrong~"
Sui Sui spread out his hands, like a little adult, and sighed helplessly, "Fairy Sister hasn't finished what she said."
"I really don't know what you're all so anxious about. Are all you adults so anxious?"
Emperor Qinglong: “…”
Emperor Qinglong took a deep breath and pointed at Su Tan, "Then finish what you are saying to me right now!"
