Rebirth is not a dream.
Chapter 135: The Recognition Scene at the Palace Banquet
Su Yue was wearing a light blue palace dress with exquisite patterns embroidered on the hem. She walked gracefully to the center of the palace with the wife of Marquis An Ning. The two stood side by side, bowed slightly, and performed standard court etiquette to the emperor and the queen mother.
The wife of Marquis An Ning said softly: "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. May your Majesty live long and long! I pay my respects to the Empress Dowager. I wish her a long life and good health." Her voice was soft and graceful, revealing a noble and elegant temperament.
Su Yue followed closely behind and said in the same soft voice: "I pay my respects to His Majesty. Long live the emperor! I pay my respects to the Empress Dowager. I wish her good health." There was a hint of restraint in her tone, but she was polite.
The emperor sat on the dragon throne, looking dignified and solemn. He smiled and nodded in response. The queen mother looked at Su Yue and the wife of Marquis An Ning kindly, her eyes full of love. The whole scene was solemn and dignified, but also filled with a harmonious atmosphere.
"Stand up," the emperor said, with a touch of gentleness in his voice. Su Yue and An Ning Hou's wife stood up straight after thanking him. The queen mother looked at Su Yue standing below and said, "Lift your head and let me see you."
Su Yue raised her head slightly and looked at the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother looked at Su Yue carefully and saw that she was beautiful and elegant. She couldn't help but sighed softly, "You look like Ming Zhao. Why haven't you come back to the palace for so many years?"
Su Yue replied quietly: "I don't know. If the Fourth Prince hadn't told me that my mother is Princess Mingzhao, I really wouldn't know!" Her tone was calm, but there was a hint of sadness in her eyes.
The Queen Mother looked at Su Yue with pity in her eyes. She said softly, "Poor child, you have suffered so much these years..." The Queen Mother thought of the departure of Princess Ming Zhao, and her heart ached. She knew that Su Yue must have suffered a lot over the years, and now that she finally returned to the palace, it was a kind of comfort.
The emperor was listening at the side and couldn't help but be moved. He secretly made up his mind to take good care of Su Yue and never let her suffer any grievances again. At this time, Su Yue had mixed feelings in her heart. She originally thought that she was just an ordinary woman, but she didn't expect that she had such a deep connection with the royal family. Faced with the care of the queen mother and the emperor, she felt a little overwhelmed. But at the same time, she also felt a warm power, which made her full of hope for the future. "Since you have returned to the capital, you can stay in the palace." The queen mother said gently, "You can also meet your mother's old friends. I will send someone to arrange accommodation for you. If you have any problems, just come to me."
Su Yue was grateful and said, "I am already married, how can I live in the palace?"
The Queen Mother turned to look at the Emperor, "Emperor, Su Yue has suffered a lot outside these years, and Princess Ming Zhao died outside in such an unclear way. Emperor, as her uncle, you have to give her some compensation. Moreover, Yue'er donated all her dowry to the national treasury. You can't treat such a kind girl badly!"
The emperor quickly responded, "Your son obeys your command." He looked at Su Yue, and a barely perceptible light flashed in his eyes.
At this time, the Prime Minister Xie An said: "Princess Ming Zhao's daughter should be given the title of Princess."
The emperor looked at the ministers below and asked, "What do you think, my dear ministers?"
The ministers thought that there was nothing wrong with conferring the title of a princess, and they all agreed, "It should be so."
At this time, the third princess Yuan Chan said, "How can you be so sure that she is Aunt Ming Zhao's daughter?" Yuan Chan didn't like the way the emperor looked at Su Yue. That look made her feel very uncomfortable, and even a little jealous. Su Yue thought to herself that she didn't want to have anything to do with the royal family at all. The status of a county lady or princess was not attractive to her at all. However, at this moment, she couldn't express her thoughts. She could only stand there quietly like a quail, with her head down, making it difficult for people to guess her true thoughts.
At this time, Concubine Xian suddenly interrupted and said, "Princess Ming Zhao was a talented woman and a god of war in Da'an! I wonder what skills this Miss Su has?" Hearing this, Su Yue really felt a little annoyed, so she answered bluntly, "I don't have any talent or skills. I don't know anything." Concubine Xian didn't seem to believe it and continued to ask, "How is it possible? Didn't your mother teach you?"
Su Yue raised her head and looked directly at Concubine Xian. She couldn't help but wonder in her heart whether Princess Ming Zhao had any grudge against Concubine Xian. This sentence sounded like she was accusing her of lack of education. Su Yue's eyes were slightly red, and she said with a hint of grievance: "Since I can remember, my mother has been bedridden. It is a luxury to teach me some basic etiquette norms, not to mention letting me learn other things. Do I have to let my mother teach me with her life?" At this point, Su Yue's voice was slightly low, as if it contained endless sorrow. Concubine Xian also found that her words seemed inappropriate, but Su Yue confronted her, and she was a little angry all of a sudden, but seeing the emperor's unfriendly eyes, she suppressed her anger and said: "I didn't expect Sister Ming Zhao to live so miserably. Why didn't you go back to the palace and ask the emperor to make a decision for her?"
Su Yue couldn't help but start thinking, could it be that the emperor was one of the people who wanted to kill Princess Ming Zhao? Otherwise, why didn't Princess Ming Zhao return to the palace to seek help? However, Su Yue knew that she couldn't show her inner thoughts at this moment, so she could only stand quietly in the palace like a quail. She looked as if she had suffered a thousand grievances, but she was stubbornly enduring and refused to show it easily, which made people feel pity for her.
At this time, the third prince said, "Cousin, you have suffered for so many years, now is the time for us to make it up to her." Hearing this, Su Yue thought to herself, can you royal family members reach a consensus before speaking? After all, she is still standing here! Moreover, do you think you can get what you want by conferring the title on me? How self-righteous!
Emperor: "Ming Zhao has really suffered these years. Why doesn't she come to see me, my dear sister?"
Su Yue watched the emperor's performance, seeing whether it was true or not. It had been more than half a year since she donated her dowry, and she had not seen the emperor summon her. What was going on today? If he didn't want to recognize her, he could really not recognize her. However, in this imperial society, Su Yue really couldn't say it here. We don't need to recognize each other, isn't it good to just pretend that we don't know each other? She is her third young lady, and you royal family members can do whatever you want. Isn't it good? You are acting out some brother-sister love here, as if she is the treasure of the royal family. Moreover, when did the emperor know her identity? Su Yue couldn't judge.
At this time, Concubine Su said, "This Su and I are relatives. Her grandfather is also my grandfather. Although he was a criminal, he also made great contributions to Da'an. I am worthy of being her aunt. It would not be too much for the emperor to make her a princess. What's more, her father should be the emperor of Northern Yan, so she can be a princess."
The emperor looked at Su Yue. She really looked like Ming Zhao, his favorite sister. But he didn't know if her personality was also like Ming Zhao's. But when did he start to drift further and further away from Ming Zhao? In the end, he let Ming Zhao return to Da'an and not come back to the palace to see him?
Emperor: "Su Yue is considered a pearl of the royal family, so she should be conferred the title..."
Su Yue looked at the emperor and thought that all emperors would have the same way of thinking, so she shouldn't give him a title like Princess Huanzhu.
Emperor: "Did your mother give you the name Su Yue?"
Su Yue: "Yes, this name was given by my mother. She said that she can see the moon by looking up. No matter where she is in the future, just seeing the moon is like seeing me."
The Emperor: "Then I will confer the title of Princess Mingyue on you. I think your father will agree when he comes to see you in the future."
At this time, everyone from An Ning Marquis' Mansion also ran over to thank Su Yue together.
