Long Live the Empress

Chapter 57: Sadness in the Heart

When everyone left, Yue Tianhong was surprised to find that Aunt Su was carried out with the chair. He suppressed his doubts and walked with Aunt Su. As they walked, he realized something was wrong. This was not the way back to Ruyi Garden.

Jinglan Garden is dilapidated and run-down, in stark contrast to the magnificent Ruyi Garden.

As soon as he entered the living room, Yue Tianhong was driven out by the stench in the room, "Auntie...what's going on?"

Aunt Su signaled the servants to put her in the yard. She could no longer hold back the sadness in her heart as she looked at her son and burst into tears, "Hong'er..."

Yue Jinghong stepped forward to comfort Aunt Su. Ignoring the old lady's warning, she told her the whole story of how the Ninth Prince not only drove Aunt Su out of Ruyi Garden but also broke her leg bones in order to support Yue Jinghao.

Yue Tianhong was so angry that he stood up all of a sudden. "Is it that idiot Yue Jinghao? How could she be in collusion with Jiu Qiansui?"

Aunt Su shook her head. "We don't know the reason. Hong'er, the Ninth Thousand Years Old is not someone you and I can afford to offend. You should just hold back your anger..."

Yes, the Nine Thousand Years Old has a huge power, how can the Prime Minister's Mansion and the General's Mansion resist him? Yue Tianhong took a deep breath, "Auntie, sister, don't worry, I will go to my grandfather and uncle tonight to discuss. We can't move the Nine Thousand Years Old, but can't we move that idiot?"

Aunt Su and Yue Jinghong looked at each other. They had already contacted their grandfather, but they were both unable to go out, so some things had to be put on hold for the time being. Now that they were out and Tianhong was back, Yue Jinghao, you can just wait to be torn to pieces!

The Su mother and son talked for a while, and then a servant came to invite them to the government hall for dinner.

When they arrived, the others were already seated.

Yue Tianhong looked at Yue Jinghao, who was sitting below the old lady, with hatred in his eyes. Putting aside other things, Yue Jinghong used to sit next to the old lady, but now Yue Jinghao took over the position. This was simply too much!

After the three of them exchanged greetings, they sat down. Before the old lady and Yue Hanwen could speak, Yue Tianhong spoke up, "Grandma, why don't you let the second sister serve you? The eldest sister is the legitimate daughter, she definitely can't do the job of serving others!"

Yue Jinghao raised her eyebrows. Yue Tianhong couldn't help it? She just pretended not to hear and continued to sit upright.

Su Hongfu sat next to Yue Hanwen, hiding her smile with a handkerchief, "Young Master also knows that the eldest lady is the legitimate daughter? Haha..."

When Aunt Su saw Yue Tianhong being scolded, she glared at Su Hongfu, "Aunt Fu knows so much about the hierarchy between legitimate and illegitimate children, so what are you doing around the master?"

Su Hongfu laughed even more happily, "Oh, it's all my sister's fault, Master, I'll go sit somewhere else~"

Yue Hanben already felt guilty towards Su Hongfu because of what happened last night, so how could he let Su Hongfu be wronged again? "Fu'er is sitting right here! If someone doesn't like it, just get out!"

Aunt Su is now swollen all over, her face is as swollen as a steamed bun, and there is a strange smell on her body. Yue Hanwen feels nauseous even at the sight of her.

When Yue Yuyan saw that Aunt Su, who used to be domineering, was scolded by Yue Hanwen on the spot, a sarcastic expression appeared on her face.

Yue Tianhong didn't expect that Aunt Su's status had dropped to the point where it was even lower than that of a newcomer. When he was about to argue with Yue Hanwen, Yue Jinghong pulled his sleeve and asked him to sit down.

Yue Yuyan rolled her eyes, "Brother Hong, how was your schoolwork this time?"

Yue Tianhong's hand holding the food paused slightly, his schoolwork... "Not bad!"

Yue Yuyan had a bewildered expression, "Why is it just okay? Aunt Su always said that brother Hong is the most promising person, why is it that now he only said okay?"

Aunt Su put down her wine glass heavily, "Hong'er went to the best men's academy, there are many well-educated people! Hong'er said it's okay, then it proves that it's not bad!"

Su Hongfu grabbed Yue Hanwen's arm, "Master, it turns out that Sister Su is different from me! Whenever I see a young master, I will respectfully call him Young Master, but Sister Su is different. She can actually call him by his name! Tsk tsk..."

This time, before Yue Hanwen could speak, the old lady spoke up, "Su, don't forget your identity!"

Aunt Su nodded and said no more. There is a long time to come, just wait!

Yue Jinghao just quietly poured tea and wine for the old lady throughout the meal without saying anything. Su Hongfu dealt with Yue Hanwen very well, and Yue Yuyan was also a troublemaker. With the cooperation of the two of them, how long could the Prime Minister's Mansion remain peaceful?
