Queen Mother Qin had been in this palace for many years, but she had never seen anyone as straightforward as Su Liyue. For a moment, she didn't know how to start.
Then, a trace of disgust flashed across his eyes: She really is from the countryside. Even after staying in the royal nunnery for many years, she hasn't made any progress at all.
"Princess Zhan, do you realize your mistake?" the Queen Mother said solemnly.
Su Liyue lowered her eyes slightly and said calmly, "I don't know what my granddaughter-in-law did wrong."
She was indeed right. Today she was just fulfilling her duties as Princess Zhan.
As for the outcome, that was not something she could control.
Hearing this, Queen Mother Qin's face turned ashen with anger. She slammed her hand, wearing a jeweled fingernail, heavily on the armrest beside her, "How dare you!"
The Queen Mother was furious, and all the palace maids knelt on the ground, and they were all silent.
Su Liyue saw this, but did not retreat. She met Queen Mother Qin's angry gaze and said clearly, "If the Empress Dowager is concerned about what happened at today's wedding, I can only say that I am not wrong."
Seeing the Queen Mother's anger rising, Su Liyue had no intention of stopping.
Because she knew very well that if she didn't argue now, she would never have another chance.
In everything, we must talk about reason.
"Grandmother, you know that the War Prince went to war for five years, and my granddaughter-in-law prayed for him in the temple for five years. She wasn't divorced, nor is she dead. Her name should still be written on the royal jade butterfly. Today, I heard that the prince wanted to remarry, so as the principal wife, it's reasonable for me to come for a cup of tea. I don't know what I did wrong."
Su Liyue didn't blush at all when she said that she was being exiled to a nunnery to pray for Ye Cangming's blessing.
As soon as Su Liyue said this, Queen Mother Qin gasped in anger, and the palace was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
While Madam Lu was trying to calm the Empress Dowager, she angrily said, "Princess Zhan, the marriage granted by the Empress Dowager meant that at the very least, you could only be a concubine. Do you even take the Empress Dowager seriously when you humiliated Miss Shangguan like that today?"
Su Liyue met Madam Lu's gaze and asked, "How did I humiliate Miss Shangguan? Please explain clearly, Madam."
He looks like he's asking for advice, but it makes people angry.
After all, the humiliation that Nanny Lu mentioned was the incident where Shangguan Ruoning was forced to change clothes in public, which eventually led to the cancellation of the marriage.
Generally speaking, if a marriage is granted like this, even a concubine can hold a wedding, because it is a grace, and everyone turns a blind eye and no one will say anything.
Unfortunately, this is against etiquette and there is nothing wrong with Su Liyue's approach.
The mistake was that Su Liyue did not give face to the Queen Mother.
But, can I say this directly?
cannot!
So, at this time, who can make it clear?
For a moment, the Queen Mother felt ashamed and her anger grew even more. "How dare you talk back in front of me? Come, slap him!"
