Chapter 045 Vomiting Blood
The Queen Mother glanced at Rong Que. She saw Rong Que lowering his head and frowning as he turned to Su Qingqing and said something in a low voice. However, Su Qingqing pushed him away with an impatient look. The Queen Mother thought for a moment and said, "What do you think about this matter, Prince?"
The prince hurriedly said, "In reply to your grandmother's words, your grandson finds it absurd. Apart from anything else, the West Mountain Camp is a military stronghold, and your grandson's status is not suitable for any contact there."
Rong Que spoke the truth directly, which made it difficult for the empress dowager to continue asking questions.
Ask again, what are you asking?
I've already told you I want to avoid suspicion, how can you still ask?
After staring at Rong Que for a moment, the Queen Mother smiled and said, "I think you are too cautious. It's just that the Crown Princess wants to go to the camp to watch a Cuju performance..."
Rong Que interrupted the Queen Mother with a serious face.
"If you want to watch a Cuju performance, why bother going to Xishan Camp? The Cuju Club holds a performance match every month. Even if you can't wait to watch it, just ask the Cuju Club to add a match. It's not a difficult task!"
Rong Que was firm in his attitude and did not want to get involved in any unnecessary trouble.
The Queen Mother looked at Su Qingqing and then at Rong Que, and finally smiled at Su Qingqing, "I can't agree to this either, but there is one person who can."
Su Qingqing looked expectant, "Who?"
"Your Majesty." The Queen Mother leaned back in her chair, her elegant smile carrying a vicious scrutiny.
Su Qingqing sneered in her heart, trying to test me? Her face fell, and Su Qingqing pouted, "Forget it, I'd better listen to your highness and watch the Cuju Club's game!"
Queen Mother: ...
Queen: ...
Just give up?
What will we do if you give up?
Should I beg you again?
This morning, Zhou entered the palace and reported to the Queen Mother about Su Qingqing and Su Xiang drinking in Suihonglou.
Zhou only said that Su Qingqing kicked Su Xiang with a ball, leaving bruises all over his body, but she did not mention the Xishan Camp, let alone forgiving Su Yunyun.
At that time, the Queen Mother ordered a flower-viewing banquet with the purpose of exposing Su Qingqing's visit to the Suihonglou in public and giving her a severe lesson.
He then threatened to confine her to her home and make her copy Buddhist scriptures, forcing her to speak out to plead for Su Yunyun.
Who would have thought that the situation had completely deviated from the Queen Mother's expectations and was spiraling out of control.
Now she didn't even have the chance to scold Su Qingqing.
After all, she didn't reprimand Su Qingqing immediately when she admitted that she went to Shattered Red Mansion. How could she pick it up again now that she has put it aside!
The Queen Mother felt a little uncomfortable.
The queen was also heartbroken.
If she had known earlier, she should not have swallowed her words and directly agreed to Su Qingqing. Maybe she could have released Yunyun now.
Su Qingqing looked at the faces of the Queen Mother and the Empress, and sneered in her heart, "Qingqing was really tired from the Cuju game with General Su yesterday. I hope the Empress Dowager and the Queen Mother will not blame me. Qingqing wants to go back and rest first. Qingqing will definitely accompany you throughout the next flower viewing banquet."
After saying that, Su Qingqing bowed and prepared to leave.
Seeing that she was about to leave, Zhou suddenly became anxious.
The Ministry of Justice's prison was a dark and damp place, and Yunyun was drugged and sent there. Whenever Zhou thought of the suffering her daughter had endured, she felt as if she were being stabbed with a needle.
The Crown Princess just said that as long as Su Xiang won, she would be willing to forgive Yunyun. Such a good opportunity was something Zhou would never dare to hope for. Biting her lip, she looked at the Queen Mother and then at the Queen, and said boldly, " My Majesty, do you want to play Cuju with my son in the West Mountain Camp?"
Su Qingqing said impatiently: "If we're not at Xishan Camp, are we going to your house? Does your house have the same atmosphere as Xishan Camp?
Besides, your son is not a good kicker. Compared with those masters in Xishan Camp, he is nothing!
Also, I heard that there is a traitor in your family. It is unlucky that he has the same name as me!"
Being clearly rejected, Zhou's face turned pale and she looked at the queen pleadingly.
The Queen then looked at the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother just felt pain in her heart.
Just let Su Qingqing go like that?
Then wouldn’t all this work be in vain?
But what else can we do if we don't let her go!
Holding the handkerchief tightly, the queen mother bit her back teeth and smiled lovingly, "Well, if you want to go to the West Mountain Camp to watch them play football, then go and watch. Just think of it as Su Xiang, as a brother, apologizing for his sister."
Rong Que immediately refused, "Grandmother, this is inappropriate."
The Queen Mother glared at Rong Que and said, "What's wrong with this? You just went to watch Cuju. Who can accuse you of colluding with military commanders?
I have the final say!
If anyone uses this matter to impeach you tomorrow, tell him to come find me!"
Rong Que looked determined to disagree and wanted to say more, but Su Qingqing stopped him, "My grandmother asked me to go, why are you stopping me? I want to go and see what's going on with Cuju. You are such a boring person!"
After saying this, Su Qingqing happily bowed to the Queen Mother, "Thank you, Grandmother, for your love."
After he finished speaking, he turned around and said to Zhou: "When I have fun in the West Mountain Camp, I will come back and plead for your daughter!"
When Su Qingqing said this, both the Queen Mother and the Empress were almost so angry that they vomited blood!
This is the first time that a transaction has been stated so bluntly!
As soon as she said this, everyone knew that Su Yunyun was released only because the Queen Mother compromised with her, Su Qingqing!
This bitch!
The Queen Mother was clearly tricked by her. She just felt a burning pain on her face but could !
The Queen Mother was unable to vent her anger, but someone was smart enough to speak up for her. The Third Miss of Rong'an Marquis's Mansion raised her hand and pointed directly at Su Qingqing, "What does the Crown Princess mean by that!"
Su Qingqing smiled at her lightly, "Don't you understand? What I mean is that I had a great time at the Xishan Camp and I'm in a good mood. I forgive Su Yunyun for what she did and am willing to ask for her release.
Of course, if I didn’t have fun, I would never forgive her in my life.
She is the one who poisoned me. If I don't forgive her, she will never be able to get out of here!"
After saying that, Su Qingqing said to the Queen Mother in an especially obedient manner, "Right, Grandmother."
Queen Mother:!
Unable to get angry at Su Qingqing, the empress dowager glared at the third young lady of the Rong'an Marquis's Mansion viciously.
The third young lady of Rong'an Marquis's Mansion realized belatedly that she had said something she shouldn't have said.
Can……
She came to the palace today clearly to see Su Qingqing being punished!
Just let it go like that?
The Third Miss of Rong'an Marquis's Mansion was unwilling to accept this. She glanced at Yu Liang and raised her chin, "Sister Crown Princess, after all, Steward Yu is an old man in the mansion. His honest words are always unpleasant to the ear..."
Su Qingqing interrupted her with a smile before she could finish.
"From the time I entered the palace until now, you have been jumping up and down like a clown, aren't you tired?
Since you like to meddle in our family's affairs so much, why don't you come and be the Crown Prince's concubine?
I would warmly welcome you, after all, I just like to watch clowns jumping around, but I don’t know if your prince brother is willing to accept you!"
Everyone: ...
Queen Mother: ...
Queen: ...
The third lady of Rong'an Marquis's Mansion:!
After Su Qingqing finished speaking, she looked towards Rong Que.
Your woman is jealous and wants to punish me. You should handle it yourself. I don't want to get involved in your mess.
Su Qingqing's words were harsh, and she said them in front of so many people in the Imperial Garden. The Third Miss of the Rong'an Marquis's Mansion could not bear the humiliation and burst into tears immediately.
