Lu Qingtang immediately laughed, "You should take care of yourself first. If you really have the ability to ask your fourth brother to divorce me, I have to thank you. But before that, you still have to call me fourth sister-in-law, and I I’m about to change my words, so I have to call you Mrs. Dong.”
Mo Xinyuan was stunned, not understanding what she meant.
"You still don't understand?" Lu Qingtang sneered, "I have told you this, Princess. You should also know who Dong Chengbin is. He is the nephew of the late Queen. Do you think His Majesty will humiliate the First Queen for your sake? Really? It’s a fact that you married Dong Chengbin, even if you don’t want to."
She paused and then said: "So, if I sacrifice you alone to preserve the reputation of our family, I won't ruin the futures of Mo Mo and Mo Bao. You are such a considerate aunt."
After Lu Qingtang told her the fact that it was about to happen, he did not forget to ridicule her.
"Impossible, this is impossible! I don't want to marry that pig!" Mo Xinyuan became angry and threw the quilt on the bed to the ground.
Lu Qingtang glanced down at the quilt on the ground and sighed: "Actually, a woman is not marrying anyone she marries. It doesn't matter if the candle goes out!"
After hearing these words, Mo Xinyuan couldn't help but look at her, with a look of surrender in her eyes.
At this time, Eunuch Xu came again. He sighed, "Princess, are you in a better condition now? Your Majesty urges you to come over? I understand that you feel wronged, but no matter how wronged you are, you must make it clear to Your Majesty."
After saying that, he looked at Lu Qingtang again and said with a smile: "Princess Chen, Your Majesty will let you go too."
Lu Qingtang nodded, stood up and walked into the hall without looking back.
Behind her, Mo Xinyuan followed Eunuch Xu and followed her in.
In the study room in the main hall, Dong Chengbin was huddled in the corner and shivering.
She remembered that when she first met him, he stopped her carriage, his arrogant and disgusting look, but now it has disappeared.
Such a person is worthy of being a relative of the emperor!
Concubine Ning, who had aged more than ten years in just a few months, was slumped on the ground with tears in her eyes, looking like she was dying.
"Daughter-in-law Lu Qingtang has met Your Majesty." Lu Qingtang knelt on the ground.
The anger on Emperor Kang Yuan's face remained, and he only stared at Dong Chengbin. Hearing Lu Qingtang's salute, he waved to her.
Shunyi hurriedly helped her up, and Lu Qingtang said, "I wonder what your Majesty called your daughter-in-law for?"
"Isn't it because..." Emperor Kang Yuan said, looking at Lu Qingtang with a look of surprise on his face, "Princess Chen's face seems not to be very good, please give her a seat!"
Lu Qingtang thanked him and sat on the armchair beside him with Shunyi's help.
At this time, Mo Xinyuan walked in tremblingly, "Father..."
Eunuch Xu stood in front of the door and waved, and all the palace people withdrew. At this moment, they were the only ones left in the study.
Mo Xinyuan fell to her knees with a plop, tears instantly rolled down from her eyes, and then she looked at Concubine Ning aggrievedly.
Concubine Ning gritted her teeth, got up from her knees, raised her hand and slapped Mo Xinyuan on the face.
There was a loud "pop" and Lu Qingtang closed his eyes, as if he was listening to the most beautiful music in the world.
"Mo Xinyuan, you shameless thing! How could you do such a despicable thing? You have really disgraced our royal family!" Concubine Ning glared at her with a face full of hatred.
Her son's body was still cold, and her daughter did such a shameful thing. Concubine Ning suddenly lost any attachment to the world.
Mo Xinyuan covered her face with one hand, tears falling down, "Mother, I...he is the one who pestered me, I am not that kind of person, I am not!"
How could she admit that she was a slut?
Even if there was a fire avoidance picture under her pillow, it was just for her to look at, not because she was born that way.
"I have the nerve to say it, but I don't have a daughter like you!" Concubine Ning gritted her teeth.
Seeing this situation, Emperor Kang Yuan immediately picked up a book and smashed it on the table, "Shut up, everyone. It's not embarrassing enough for you to argue like this. Shut up!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire study continued to become quiet.
Concubine Ning immediately lowered her head, and Mo Xinyuan's tears stopped.
Emperor Kang Yuan sighed sharply, "Concubine Ning, I told you not to let Yuan'er leave the palace at the beginning, but you insisted that the feng shui in the palace was not suitable for her to be around. At that time, I thought you felt sorry for your daughter, so I followed your wishes. But look what this religion has become!"
Concubine Ning also regretted that she should not have sent Mo Xinyuan away in the first place.
But when she sees Mo Xinyuan, she will think of her first daughter and feel sorry for her.
In order to save her brother who had embezzled disaster relief money, she could only exchange her daughter for Wang Cairen's son, but she didn't want to accidentally suffocate her to death.
She really didn't mean it, she thought it would be fine just to cover her with a quilt for a while.
She really hated herself for being ignorant and for being a vicious mother.
Thinking of this, Concubine Ning burst into tears. This cry was a confession of her past.
Seeing her crying so sadly, Emperor Kang Yuan couldn't bear to say anything more. After all, his son had just died, and she didn't want anything to happen to her daughter, so he sighed again.
"Forget it, let's not talk about it. Since it has happened, we have to find a way to solve it." Emperor Kang Yuan seemed to be talking to himself.
As he said that, he looked at Lu Qingtang and said: "Thanks to you for today's matter. You are a good boy who takes the overall situation into consideration. You can adapt to changes and stop everyone's mouth. It is his blessing that Shen'er married you. .”
"Thank you for your compliment, Your Majesty. This is a family matter, and my daughter-in-law should come out to safeguard her own affairs." Lu Qingtang stood up and gave a sideways salute to Emperor Kang Yuan.
Emperor Kang Yuan waved his hand and motioned for her to sit down, "Yes, you are still a sensible child, so do you have any good ideas? My mind is very confused at the moment, and I don't have a clue at all."
Lu Qingtang looked back at Dong Chengbin, whose face was pale, and said slowly, "Your Majesty actually knows how to handle this matter, but he just can't bear it, so I have to let my daughter-in-law speak for Your Majesty."
Emperor Kang Yuan nodded and held his forehead helplessly.
This is indeed a headache.
"Dong Chengbin, do you know your guilt?" Lu Qingtang looked at Dong Chengbin and said coldly.
After hearing this, Dong Chengbin immediately looked up at her, then knelt and crawled to her, "Hui Your Majesty, Hui Chen Princess, I know my mistake, but I really don't know she is a princess, I just think she is Shui Yunxi's cousin."
Mo Xinyuan heard Dong Chengbin speak and turned away with disgust, not looking at him.
She really didn't know what she was thinking, to be able to bite such a face, and she felt even more guilty towards Shui Yunxi.
He must be very angry and sad now.
"Shui Yunxi lied about being a cousin in order to protect the princess's reputation. Moreover, judging from your tone, if she were a commoner, she would be allowed to be abused by you?" Lu Qingtang frowned, anger igniting in his eyes.
