Old Madam Su sighed deeply, her old age revealed. She smiled bitterly and said, "It's just a matter of whether to hate or not. To be honest with Your Majesty, if I want to hate, it's the Xu family and Shao Wenxun. They are so cruel that they didn't even let Su An, who had already returned to his hometown, go..."
She was very frank and didn't try to hide anything. "And I really can't spare the energy to hate anyone. I raised the seventh child in fear and trepidation. I've been worried about them since they were young. I have to worry about Rong'er's health. If he has any headache or fever, I can't sleep for nights..."
Talking about these family matters, Mrs. Su finally started to act like an old person and started to chatter uncontrollably: "His legs and feet became worse because of that incident. For a while, he even wanted to give up. I didn't dare to close my eyes at night. I wished I could watch over him every day..."
Emperor Yuanfeng felt a little reluctant.
He knew that the Su family must have had a hard time over the years, but he didn't expect there to be so much suffering in the process.
He couldn't help but think of the late Empress Xiaoci again.
She had never lived a happy life, except for the prince, whom she loved purely from the bottom of her heart. As long as the prince was by her side, she would smile the most.
Even before she died, she was still most concerned about the prince, and told him not to be too harsh on him and not to violate the taboo of suspicion between father and son... ...
But he was deceived by those mean people and let the prince suffer such injustice...
The Crown Prince was brought up by Empress Xiaoci, and he also watched him grow up. Of all his children, he has the most vivid memory of the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince started to learn to roll over when he was more than five months old. Such a tiny little guy, after rolling over, he was like a turtle and couldn't turn back. He cried like a kitten in anxiety. He could stand up with the help of something when he was more than nine months old, and could walk when he was more than one year old...
When he got married at the age of 18, she came to him anxiously asking how to get along with the Crown Princess...
The more he recalled, the more cruel it became. The people and events that had been buried in his memory suddenly came alive at this moment. Emperor Yuanfeng felt as if a heavy stone was pressing on his chest.
Old Madam Su smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, you may also know that my granddaughter's marriage is not satisfactory. I have been exhausted by their affairs recently. I can't think of anything else to focus on. To be honest, when the second son and the third son got into trouble, I was still thinking about whether Rong'er's leg could be cured..."
A person's life is made up of so many tedious things.
The only difference is that Mrs. Su's life is particularly difficult as she keeps accepting the deaths of people around her.
So Old Madam Su has become so old. Seeing that she can't even straighten her back, Emperor Yuanfeng felt very uncomfortable. After a long while, he suddenly said, "I remember that you used to be very strong-willed. Empress Xiaoci liked you very much."
Old Madam Su was somewhat disappointed: "It has been so long that I can't even remember it myself."
Emperor Yuanfeng was silent for a while, then asked: "Then don't you want to ask for something?"
"Of course I am asking for it." Old Madam Su pursed her lips and said firmly, "Your Majesty, I have been thinking about this matter before. If Rong'er's leg can be healed, can you return the title of Earl's Mansion to him? He is a poor child..."
That's all the requirements.
Thinking about how Xu Rui stole Su Rong's fiancée and had humiliated Su Rong repeatedly over the years, thinking about how the Xu family had been targeting the Su family for more than ten years, forcing the Su family into a desperate situation, and it could be said that the family was broken up.
Think about how Shao Wenxun has been enjoying all the luxury over the years.
Even though the Third Prince was deposed, he still enjoyed treatment in the palace that was completely different from that of ordinary people.
Emperor Yuanfeng suddenly smiled sarcastically.
Old Madam Su seemed frightened and knelt on the ground hurriedly: "I didn't mean to use this matter to threaten you, but..." She was a little depressed: "It's just that Your Majesty..."
"I understand." Emperor Yuanfeng raised his hand to interrupt her explanation. Seeing that Old Lady Su was in a state of panic, he sighed even more deeply. After a long while, he said calmly, "You can go back. I have my own plans."
Old Lady Su agreed, and with great effort she got up from the ground and said goodbye to Emperor Yuanfeng.
Emperor Yuanfeng suddenly called her back and said, "Su Rong's illness was first said to last half a month, then a month. How come it's dragging on for so long now?"
Talking about this, Mrs. Su became even more worried. She suddenly choked up uncontrollably. "Doctor Shen said that it has been delayed for too long. We need to break the bones and reconnect them with magical medicine. I'm afraid this process will have to be repeated several times. We were going to do it for the second time last month, but Rong had a fever for seven or eight days in a row... Doctor Shen said to let him rest for a while. I'm afraid it will take a while."
What a misfortune! Emperor Yuanfeng nodded thoughtfully.
It was almost evening when Old Lady Su came out of the palace. The setting sun was emitting its afterglow in the sky, and the breeze blew on her face, bringing the fragrance of flowers. She closed her eyes and let the wind blow her sweaty hair. It took her a long time to find her own carriage.
Master Su San was waiting at the Shenwu Gate. When he saw her come out, a smile appeared on his face involuntarily and he hurriedly called her mother.
He trotted forward to support Old Lady Su and sighed softly: "Is everything going well?"
Seeing that he was sweating profusely, Mrs. Su knew that he was also waiting anxiously. In addition, he had been acting more steadily recently, so she said kindly, "Let's talk about it when we get back."
Master Su San saw that although she was tired, her tone and complexion were still okay. He knew that the trip had probably successfully achieved its goal and that they had passed this hurdle. So he agreed cheerfully and helped Old Lady Su get into the carriage.
When the Su family's carriage left from the Shenwu Gate, there happened to be a carriage parked at the palace gate. Seeing the Su family's carriage leave, the person sitting in the carriage lowered the curtain and asked the person outside in a low voice: "Is this the Su family's carriage?"
After a while, the guard outside hurriedly responded and reported to Princess Mingchang: "Yes, Your Highness. Old Madam Su just came out to see the emperor."
Meet the emperor
Old Madam Su hasn't been to the palace for more than ten years.
Needless to say, we all know that he went to the palace this time because of the Xu family case.
It's really a changing world. Who could have imagined that the Xu family, which was enjoying great glory by hosting banquets just a few months ago, would fall, while the Su family, which had been unknown and marginalized, would suddenly emerge.
The girl Chun'an was crying so hard, but who can do anything now
Old Madam Su went to the palace, but no one knew what to say.
She snorted lightly, a mocking smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, she raised her eyebrows and leaned back on the pillow, no longer commenting, just said: "Hand over the sign."
The guards responded hastily.
