To disrespect Jiang Yi is to disrespect the emperor.
Did the emperor win? It was just because he got the woman he didn't want.
He lowered his eyes and said no more.
When these words were spoken, the public was shocked.
There was not much emotion in Jiang Yi's heart. There is no greater sorrow than a dead heart. She had given up on Xu Youqi, so naturally she didn't care what he said or did.
She just pretended to be stunned and said: "Empress Dowager, you know..."
The Queen Mother said, "Of course I know."
"You knew clearly that I was once the original wife of your husband, yet you still tolerated the princess stealing someone else's husband and tolerated your husband abandoning his wife and children."
"I thought the Queen Mother didn't know before, but it turns out you do know."
"A princess like you is actually so short of men."
She curled her lips slightly again, "Of course, there are many men in this world. After I learned that the prince consort had abandoned me, I also abandoned him."
"I don't want a man who abandons his wife to cling to the rich and powerful, so I met the emperor."
"Your Majesty is the best man in the world. I am deeply grateful to you because the princess fell in love with the prince consort before, and the prince consort abandoned me, allowing me to meet my true love."
"I am grateful to Princess Fengyang and her husband. Princess Fengyang and her husband are my benefactors. How could I possibly hate Princess Fengyang?"
She spoke very calmly, and only when she talked about the emperor did her eyebrows and eyes curved and filled with smiles.
She said she was grateful, but to the Queen Mother and Xu Youqi, it sounded more like irony.
The Queen Mother was so angry at being mocked by the country girl whom she looked down upon that her anger surged like a tide. In addition, Princess Fengyang was humiliated before and her reputation was tarnished later. In a fit of rage, she wanted to argue with Jiang Yi.
The Queen Mother blurted out, "You said you were the Prince Consort's original wife. Do you have any evidence?"
Xu Youqi had said before that he had brought the marriage certificate between Jiang Yi and him with him when he came to the capital, but it was damaged when Jiang Yi just arrived in the capital a few years ago.
So the Queen Mother was certain that Jiang Yi had no evidence.
She smiled contemptuously.
The emperor was about to speak, but Jiang Yi shook his head at him.
Jiang Yi said, "At this point, is it still useful to ask for evidence? My husband is very satisfied with his current life, and I am also very satisfied with my current life. Why does the Queen Mother have to make trouble for me?"
The Queen Mother was so angry that she almost died. She never expected that Jiang Yi would be so sharp-tongued.
It was as if she was simply being unreasonable.
You wanted to say something else, but the emperor suddenly called two old farmers.
The two old farmers stepped forward to greet the Empress Dowager and the Emperor, saying, "We are the patriarch of the Xu family from Aoli Village in Duan County."
Another person said: "Cao Min is Xu Youqi's uncle."
The emperor asked Xu Youqi, "I wonder if the prince consort can recognize me?"
Xu Youqi said nothing.
The emperor motioned for them to continue speaking, and the man claiming to be Xu Youqi's uncle said, "It was I who acted as a matchmaker for the prince consort back then."
The Xu family head said, "I am the witness for the marriage of the prince consort."
The Emperor asked the Empress Dowager in a good-tempered manner, "Does Your Majesty still have any doubts? I can ask them to clear them up for you one by one."
The Queen Mother glared at Xu Youqi fiercely.
"What happened today was a misunderstanding. Let's just let it go." The Queen Mother said with a tired face. After what happened, she no longer had the heart to celebrate her birthday.
Lately, she has been unable to accomplish anything she wants to do, so she thinks she should go and pray to the Buddha.
The emperor was about to speak when Princess Fengyang woke up slowly.
Princess Fengyang was confused for a moment, but many bad memories flooded her mind. A trace of pain flashed across her face, and she finally fainted from the pain.
She slapped the two men beside her who were drunk as dead pigs.
One man was still sleeping like a dead pig, while the other man woke up.
The man was the son of the Minister of War, a notorious second-generation rich kid. He was suddenly slapped in the face and jumped up. When he saw that the person was Princess Fengyang, he was suddenly startled.
He was even more bewildered, still slightly drunk, as he said, "Princess, didn't you just tell me that you were going to give me a beauty? Could it be that you are actually giving me yourself? Hehe, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Everyone opened their mouths in surprise.
"Shut up! If you say anything nonsense, I'll smash your mouth."
Princess Fengyang hit the drunk man in the face, and the man quickly dodged. As they kept chasing and dodging each other, the dress that the Queen Mother had asked someone to put on Princess Fengyang fell off.
Princess Fengyang then looked at everyone.
Oh, it turns out that Princess Fengyang originally wanted to frame Concubine Chen, but by accident she got herself trapped.
Princess Fengyang was truly vicious.
Although no one dared to say anything due to Princess Fengyang and the Queen Mother, their expressions were indescribable.
The Queen Mother said hurriedly, "They're almost gone. Could it be that my words are no longer effective?"
"Wait a minute." The emperor suddenly said, "I have something else to report to my mother."
The emperor ordered another person to be brought up. This person was none other than the classmate that Zhao Yu had brought from Aoli Village and had a close relationship with Xu Youqi.
But now this classmate is covered with scars, and the skin on many parts of his body has been peeled off.
After Zhao Yu left the capital, the emperor had someone take over the person he had not interrogated.
After countless tortures, he finally couldn't bear it anymore.
The moment he saw this classmate, Xu Youqi wanted to leave.
