Su Qingyue looked at her biological mother with a cold face, thinking of their indifference and ruthlessness in their previous life, and felt depressed and cold in her heart.
She said calmly: "Dear, mother, Ling grew up with me. Don't you consider my feelings when you punish her like this?"
Seeing that she didn't answer the question, Su 꿵 frowned tightly and the anger in his eyes deepened.
Mother Su said calmly, "They are servants. If servants fail to serve their masters well, they should be punished. Even if they grew up together, they are still servants. Yue'er, you will be the queen in the future. Don't be so loyal, otherwise it will hurt you in the future."
Su's mother looked very serious when she spoke, as if she was really thinking about her daughter.
But Su Qingyue knew in her heart that they only cared about benefits. In her previous life, they wanted to marry her to Nangong Rong, but she didn't want to. Later, Nangong Mo schemed to destroy her appearance and lose her innocence, and she was forced to marry Nangong Mo.
At first they were quite nice to her and Nangong Mo. After all, Nangong Mo was a member of the royal family and it was not impossible for him to ascend the throne in the future. But after Nangong Mo gained power again and again and after the Xianwang Mansion gained power again and again, they actually came up with the absurd idea of marrying her to Nangong Rui, the prince of the Xianwang Mansion.
When the struggle for imperial power was at its most intense and Prince Xian's Mansion was at its most glorious, they believed that Prince Xian's Mansion would come out on top, so they called her back, fed her spiced tea, and planned to give her to Nangong Rui.
This kind of thing, I am afraid that there are not many mothers in the world who can do it.
Fortunately, she realized something was wrong that day and ran away biting her tongue. After that, she disappeared for the whole night. Nangong Mo began to doubt her innocence and started to treat her badly.
Until later, Nangong Mo successfully eliminated Prince Xian's family and successfully ascended the throne.
At that time, her biological mother acted as if nothing had happened and said all kinds of nice things to her and Nangong Mo.
Nangong Mo did make them happy for a while, but then the entire Su family was executed. The charge was that they had conspired with the traitor Xian Wang's family and had harmed Nangong Mo, who was the emperor at that time. Harming the emperor meant the death penalty of having the entire family executed.
And she was hanged in the palace. The crime after her death was suicide out of fear of punishment. She was the queen for three months, and then she was stigmatized and demoted to a commoner. After her death, she did not get the title of queen, and her body was not buried in the imperial mausoleum, but was dumped in the wilderness.
This was her fate in her previous life, and her biological mother's body was not collected after her death and was thrown into a mass grave in the suburbs.
This is the end of their family, this is the end of wanting to be the queen.
Su Qingyue doesn't want to be a queen anymore in her life. She can change her mind, but her mother can't. They are still as selfish and cold-hearted as before, only caring about their own interests. Nothing else matters, not even her, their daughter.
Su Qingyue looked at her mother with a calm expression and said, "I understand, mother."
Seeing that she did not refute as before, Su's mother was quite satisfied. However, when she thought about her going out without permission, her face turned bad again.
"Yuer, tell me, why did you sneak out? Where did you go?"
Su Qingyue stood straight and said expressionlessly, "I was bored at home, so I went out to play for a few days."
With a "slap", Su 翵's palm slammed heavily on the table, and shouted angrily: "Rebellion! You ran away without saying a word. Do you know how important a woman's reputation is? How can you be the queen in the future?"
Su Qingyue sneered when she heard this, "Empress? Dear, I don't want to be an empress. I am already 21 years old and still unmarried in order to become an empress. Other women at my age have already given birth to children. Do you know how many people in Nanyang City laugh at me? The moment I was born with the fate of a phoenix, my life was ruined. Dear, I don't want this fate of a phoenix anymore. You can choose whoever you want to be the empress! I don't have this blessing."
Su Qingyue simply ignored it and took this opportunity to tell them her plan.
It was their business whether to accept it or not. Anyway, they could no longer control her life, and she didn't want to be a puppet anymore.
With a "pop" sound.
Su Yu stood up and slapped Su Qingyue on the face. He was so angry that he was about to smoke. He bit his mouth and said viciously: "You only have one way, and that is to become the queen. Qingyue, don't let Yu Yu hope for you. Be obedient, otherwise don't blame Yu Yu."
Su 꿵's voice changed from angry to calm, with a hint of threat in it, which made it even more frightening.
Su Qingyue covered her face with her hands, and a tear fell from her eyes.
Mother Su hurriedly said, "Why are you so excited? If you have something to say, why can't you just talk it out? Why do you have to take action? Our Yue'er's face is precious, and she can't show any sign of losing it."
Su Qingyue listened to this with a look of indifference in her eyes.
She straightened up, looked at her father with a red and swollen face, her eyes full of stubbornness.
"My dear, have you ever cared about my happiness? Do you think that I will be happy if I become the queen? Or do you only care about your own interests and whether your daughter can become the queen, regardless of whether she wants to be the queen or not, whether she is happy or not, it doesn't matter, right?"
Su 꿵 became even angrier when questioned by his own daughter. He raised his hand and wanted to hit her again. Su Qingyue did not dodge and just let him hit her with her face tilted up.
Finally, the hand stopped. Looking at his daughter's cold eyes, Su Xiao felt a little flustered and uneasy, and dared not to hit her anymore.
But he couldn't save his face, so he shook his hand with a cold snort and sat back in his previous seat.
"Qingyue, how can you think of your father like this? You know how much your father has sacrificed for you and your brother, and how good he is to you. How can you say these things to hurt his heart?"
Su's mother spoke again, blaming Su Qingyue.
Su Qingyue understood that their ideas could not be changed and that she was delusional, trying to say something to make them give up the interests and rights they cared about so much.
She came to her senses and calmed down, "Dear, mother, I understand. I won't say these words again."
Hearing this, Su's mother's expression immediately improved a lot. Su 꿵, who was full of anger, also relaxed a little, and his frown slowly relaxed a little.
Su Qingyue said, "Dear, mother, if everything is alright, I will go back to my room and rest."
"etc?"
Su 꿵 spoke.
"What did you go out for this time?"
Listening to her parents' questioning, Su Qingyue said, "Nothing, I just felt very depressed all the time, so I wanted to go out for a walk. If I told you guys, you wouldn't agree, so I went secretly."
"Oh, by the way, mother, I know you will punish Ling severely. I understand you. You said I value friendship, but that's not the case. You only see the surface. My so-called friendship is just a show for others to see. Look how loyal my maids are because of this! This is just a way to win people's hearts, but mother can't see it."
Su's mother looked at her daughter in surprise. The face was still the same, but the coldness in her eyes made her feel a little uneasy. Why did she feel that her daughter seemed to have changed?
"Mother, if you want to punish me next time, it doesn't matter if it's a heavier punishment. As long as I don't die or become disabled, it will be fine. If I die or become disabled, it will affect my ability to hire people."
After Su Qingyue finished speaking, she walked away.
Su 꿵 and her mother were left looking at each other in bewilderment.
The two were speechless for a while, and just when they were about to get up and leave, Su Qingyue came back.
