Legitimate Daughter, Arrogant Consort

"Esteemed Empress Dowager, first take a look at what Wan-Ning has offered before bestowing Wan-Wan. Otherwise, won't there be people who want to be unbalanced?" Mu Wan Wan's smile was sweet.

When the empress dowager heard this, she laughed out loud. "Yes, yes, yes. This Dowager almost forgot. Ghosts and spirits like you love to mess around with strange things the most." "Come, let This Dowager see what it is."

Hearing the empress dowager's question, Mu Wan Wan smiled magnanimously as she opened the box. Inside the box was a red gem. "Esteemed Empress Dowager, I bought this from a Persian merchant a few days ago. The stone was completely red, and it shone brightly under the sun. It was truly a sight to behold. The empress dowager doesn't like jade jewelry. If this stone was used to make it, it would definitely look good! "

When the empress dowager heard this, she couldn't help but nod. "That's right. I'm sorry you're so thoughtful." This time, This Dowager can reward you, right? "

"It's all thanks to the empress dowager's bestowal." Mu Wan's smile was very radiant. With a single glance, one could tell that she was a spoiled daughter of a rich family. Life is really different between people.

Situ Yaoru looked at the woman who seemed to be the center of attention, and thought of her predecessor. He couldn't help but click his tongue. Fortunately, the concubines of the Scholar's Manor didn't have any high status. Fortunately, her mother's family status was very high. Otherwise, he would probably be a lady without any feelings of existence right?

Or perhaps … It was precisely because she was afraid of being forgotten that the owner of this body was willing to be used by her own sister, and that the people in the capital would not be able to ignore her.

Perhaps this was also a kind of disguised struggle?

With the empress dowager biased against the prime minister's daughter, all of the ministers' daughters were naturally dissatisfied. However, the empress dowager was the boss, so no one dared to say anything. Thus, they could only successively offer gifts. Her Majesty never smiled at anyone when she presented them. Just when the empress dowager was starting to get impatient, it was Situ Yaorao's turn.

Situ Yaoru thought to herself. This is bad luck. But luckily, that cheap and reliable mother knew that the empress dowager liked peonies, so she invited her family to bring in a large purple peony flower. The flowers were gorgeous, and even someone like her who was used to seeing them couldn't help but feel moved. I'm sure Her Majesty will like it, too.

Thinking this, Situ Yaoru stepped forward and said, "Esteemed Empress Dowager, this subject's daughter, Situ Yaoru, offers this gift to Esteemed Empress Dowager." As she spoke, Situ Yaoru took off the red cloth from the flower pot. Then she saw the empress dowager's expression darken. Everyone present also fell silent.

The entire scene was terrifyingly quiet.

Situ Yaoru blinked, puzzled. Just as he was about to check to see if there was something wrong with Peony, General Situ bellowed, "You unfilial daughter!" How dare he be so outrageous and send a stalk of withered grass to Esteemed Empress Dowager? Hurry up and kneel down to apologize! " With that, General Situ rushed over and knelt in front of the empress dowager. "Your Majesty, esteemed empress, esteemed empress dowager, please see the light. This subject will kill this unfilial daughter to apologize for esteemed empress dowager."

After he finished speaking, General Situ actually took the sabre of a guard with a sabre.

As Situ Yaoru saw this, her eyes became frighteningly cold.

In her two lifetimes, she wasn't very old. He was used to all sorts of things in the world. Those few weird old men asked her to train every day, saying that she was a genius.

There were always people who sought her out for a spar, and their expressions were all fanatical. She liked the feeling, the feeling that they could understand each other. And now, this person, this person known as her father, was also going to compete against her? Unfortunately, there was only killing intent and disgust in his eyes.

Situ Yaoru didn't even know why this person hated her so much.

But he wouldn't give her a chance to ask. As she thought about it, Situ Yaoru sneered. It was at this moment that General Situ pulled out his saber. It hacked towards Situ Yaoru.

"Someone come!" Stop General Situ! " the Emperor ordered immediately.

However, it was too late to shout. Situ Yaoru's face was expressionless as he gripped the blade, blood flowing from his hands. Looking at General Situ, Situ Yaoyao's tone was icy cold but calm, "Father, my life and death will be decided by the Emperor. Please don't be impulsive. If you truly want to kill your daughter, why not bury her alive when your daughter was born? "

The young woman's gaze was as cold as the moon in the sky. It was impossible to reach. However, at this moment, there was more disappointment in her eyes. He was disappointed in the father, General Situ.

Originally … Tantai Wuyue, who was ready to take action, fell silent when he saw Ye Ci's expression. Perhaps she would have a better idea?

If not … It wasn't too late for him to help.

"You rebellious girl, if I knew that you would dare to bring this dried up grass here today, I would have buried you alive back then!" General Situ said angrily.

Hearing this, Situ Yaoru laughed again, "What's not good about withered grass?"

"You still dare to say that?" General Situ was flustered and exasperated.

"Let her continue. This Dowager wants to see exactly why she sent this dried up grass." The empress dowager's voice sounded neither salty nor indifferent. When General Situ heard this, he drew his saber. Even though Situ Yaoyao's hands were bleeding profusely, he didn't care at all. Situ Yaoru only felt that the last trace of hope left in her heart had also disappeared.

This person was simply unworthy of being her father. As she thought this, Situ Yaoru knelt on the ground and took the dried up grass. She said slowly, "Esteemed empress dowager, do you know the characteristics of this grass?"

"Characteristics?" Her Majesty was puzzled.

"Yes, unique characteristics." Situ Yaoru nodded. The Empress Dowager shook her head. "This one doesn't know. You can speak slowly."

Hearing this, Situ Yaoru laughed, "The grass is born with the spring wind, and it loses with the winter. However, even though he had lost, he did not stop. No matter how hot the fire was, no matter how many people trampled on it, it would still be accompanied by the wind and green in the spring of next year. As the saying goes, leave the grass on the prairie, year after year withered and bloomed, the wildfire never stopped, and a new spring breeze blew by. This subject's daughter thought, if a person's life could be like this, wouldn't it be eternal? Esteemed Empress Dowager, you're extremely beautiful and kind-hearted. It is also to Buddha that I wholeheartedly devote my heart to you. If I can live forever, it would be the fortune of the Mist approach and the fortune of the world. That is the reason why I risked my life to offer this stalk of withered grass to you. I believe that before long, it will regrow its green leaves. "

Situ Yaoyao's voice wasn't loud, but because everyone was attentively listening to her, everyone could clearly hear what she said.

It was also at this moment that the crowd finally realized that this so-called scarecrow young miss was not really a scarecrow. It was not easy to come up with such a reason in such a short period of time.

Which one of you here isn't trying to play around in the dark? A congratulatory gift that had suddenly turned into withered grass, this sort of thing was obvious just by thinking about it. Someone had framed him!

In that instant, some people were gloating, while others felt pity. Others were indifferent. However, in the end, everyone couldn't help but look at the famous Miss Situ.

If not for her actions, based on her family background, it would not be an exaggeration to say that she was the number one beauty in the capital.

Today, the woman was extremely eye-catching as she quietly sat there.

After a long period of silence, the Empress Dowager clapped her hands and beamed. "Good, good, good. This Dowager likes it. "Men, put this stalk of grass in my palace."

"Yes." The maid took the order and hurriedly put away the stalk of withered grass.

"Little girl, this one likes you just from looking at you, what do you think? Do you want to come to the palace to accompany This Dowager? " The empress dowager chuckled as she looked at Situ Yaoyao. "Esteemed empress dowager, this subject's girl is too vulgar. I'm afraid serving the empress dowager would cause esteemed empress dowager to be unhappy, so I ask that esteemed empress dowager become a woman for all. Let this subject be a well-educated girl in your heart."

The empress dowager broke out in laughter at Situ Yaoru's words. "Good, good. This Dowager won't force you. You can go down and bandage your hands." After he finished speaking, he looked at General Situ again, "Great General, you're right. Even after all these years, your temper is still so bad. If something were to happen to your daughter, forget about your family not forgiving you.
