Shang Ruyan bit her lower lip and looked at Mo Ronyan with pleading eyes, "Your Highness..."
Su Ruotang suddenly put down the tea cup, making a crisp sound.
What followed was her cold voice, "Miss Shang, please figure out who to apologize to."
While speaking, she glared at Mo Ronyan who was playing with tea leaves with lowered eyes.
Dog men, always causing trouble.
Mo Rongyan lazily raised his eyes, glanced at Shang Ruyan, and said in a cool voice, "Since you want to apologize, then show your sincerity."
Shang Ruyan's face turned pale: "What sincerity?"
Mo Rongyan took the empty tea cup from Su Ruotang's hand, poured a new cup of tea and handed it over. His clear and moist tone revealed a softness that he didn't know he had, "What kind of sincerity do you want?"
Su Ruotang glanced at him lightly, her red lips parted lightly, "The third prince is really willing to give up?"
Mo Ronyan held a green grape with his long fingertips and played with it, and suddenly laughed softly.
Su Ruotang's delicate brows furrowed and she pursed her lips, "Why are you laughing? Are you feeling sorry for your childhood sweetheart?"
Mo Ronyan didn't say much. He raised his clear and clean bones and knocked on the table, "Third Princess, if you are jealous, go home and eat."
Su Ruotang's peach blossom eyes suddenly widened: "What nonsense are you talking about!" Who is jealous! !
Before she could speak, Liu Wanyue's voice came, "Miss Shang really sincerely wants to apologize?"
Shang Ruyan clasped her fingers on the ground, calmed down after hearing the words, looked in the direction of Liu Wanyue, and whispered: "Yes, as long as the third prince and concubine can forgive the common people, the common people can do whatever they want."
Liu Wanyue raised the corners of her lips slightly, looked at Su Ruotang, and said gently: "Tang'er, can my mother help you decide?"
Hearing this, Su Ruotang's eyes filled with warmth, and he smiled sweetly at Liu Wanyue, "Thank you for your hard work, concubine."
Shang Tian was a veteran of two dynasties. Although he resigned and went to Jiangnan for five years, the attitude of the noble ladies in the capital towards Shang Ruyan showed that Shang Tian's status in the hearts of some courtiers was not low.
Liu Wanyue's move transferred part of Shangtian's hatred towards her onto herself.
In this way, she protected her.
Liu Wanyue looked at Shang Ruyan with cold and indifferent eyes, and her gentle voice was calm and emotionless, "Miss Shang, Tang'er is kind-hearted and will not argue with you."
"But that doesn't mean that I can just pretend it didn't happen. If Tang'er hadn't asked this girl to cure her poison in the Yangxin Palace, she would have been successfully framed by you today."
Shang Ruyan's face became paler after listening to her words.
She bit her lower lip tightly, and tears kept falling down.
Shang Tian said distressedly: "Concubine Wan, Ru Yan said it was a misunderstanding. Is there anything wrong with what you said?"
Liu Wanyue lowered her eyes, played with her well-maintained nails, and said calmly: "I call you Shang Lao because of my upbringing of respecting the elderly and loving the young. Now you are just a commoner."
"Shang Ruyan failed to frame my daughter-in-law. I am such a vicious-minded woman. Did I say something wrong?"
After speaking, her tone became sarcastic and full of pressure.
Shang Tian was a civil servant and had no dealings with the Liu family, who had always been military officials.
Naturally, she was extremely displeased with him, and she was also displeased with the old man.
In eight years of fighting with Nanchen, my brother lost a city, yet Shangtian, an old man, actually demanded that he be executed.
Fortunately, Yan'er made a surprising move and defeated Nan Chen, forcing them to give up five cities.
Later, Shang Tian was secretly forced by His Majesty to resign and go to Jiangnan. The court was only slightly quiet for five years.
This old man must have bad intentions when he suddenly returns to Beijing.
The color in Shang Tian's eyes turned cold, but his face didn't show it at all. He said in a low voice: "Since the imperial concubine has determined that what happened today is Ru Yan's fault, the common people have nothing to say."
"Since ancient times, people have not fought with officials. We will all suffer how the imperial concubine wants to punish Ru Yan."
He secretly accused Liu Wanyue of using power to oppress others.
Emperor Wu Shun's eyebrows were covered with a layer of frost, and he said in a deep voice: "Shang Tian, for slandering the royal daughter-in-law, you must be very clear about the crime, right?"
Shang Tian did not expect that five years later, Emperor Wu Shun would be more protective of Liu Wanyue than before.
He glanced at the queen calmly, tapped the ground five times with his fingers in his sleeves, and still bit her to death, "Your Majesty, Ru Yan is just a temporary servant, and she did not intend to slander the third prince's concubine."
The queen saw Shang Tian's little movements clearly, her pupils shrank slightly, and she said with a smile, "Your Majesty, Mr. Shang has always attached great importance to etiquette and education, and Miss Shang is also well-educated and sensible."
"She loves Mu Wen and is worried that Mu Wen's hard work will be robbed. It is human nature. It is better to let this matter go as it is."
"After all, it won't have any impact on the third prince's concubine."
Liu Wanyue sneered: "Sister, it's really easy to talk while standing. If Tang'er hadn't saved a hand, Tang'er wouldn't be able to escape even if she jumped into the Yellow River this time."
After finishing her words, before the queen and Shang Tian could continue talking, she said coldly: "Shang Ruyan, I want you to give free clinics to beggars outside the city for three days. All the medicinal materials will be provided by the Shang Mansion."
Shang Ruyan and Shang Tian were stunned at the same time.
What kind of punishment is this?
The next moment, Mo Rongyan's chilly voice slowly came, "We cannot let the people recognize your identity."
While speaking, he looked helplessly at his mother and concubine.
The mother-in-law is kind-hearted and often hides her identity and goes out of the city to give porridge to beggars and poor people.
And every time, he was the one who asked people to help his mother and concubine secretly.
At the same time, they quietly revealed that the person who helped them came from Liu Mansion.
The mother-in-law is kind-hearted, and he is a businessman, so naturally he will not do business at a loss.
Su Ruotang tapped her green-white fingertips on the table and added: "Two hours a day for half a year."
