If Xia Wanning was her biological daughter, even though Jiang Rong was unwilling to admit it, one thing that was undeniable was that no matter how excessive her behavior towards the emperor was, Jiang Rong would obviously not say that Xia Wanning was wrong in the slightest, right?

On the contrary, she would try to find ways to exonerate Xia Wanning, right?

Yu Huan spoke the truth and did not say flattering lies to her just because she was the queen mother.

On the contrary, as the Queen Mother for so many years, Jiang Rong had experienced countless things over the years, and had met many different kinds of people around her. To be honest, although Yu Huan spoke directly, they were all the truth, and they were all good for her, weren't they?

Looking at the entire harem, let alone now, even when I was young, I couldn't find someone like Yu Huan who could tell the truth.

Jiang Rong reflected in her heart for a long time. In the end, she didn't need Yu Huan to say anything, nor did she need Aunt Liu beside her to persuade her.

She realized her mistake, and she stood up and walked towards Yu Huan who was kneeling below.

When she reached her side, she leaned over and helped Yu Huan up from the ground.

In just a short while, her face, which was full of anger at the beginning, now no trace of anger could be found on her face.

Instead, she looked at Yu Huan with tenderness and admiration: "Empress, it is a blessing for the Emperor to have such a virtuous queen like you!"

Yu Huan lowered her head, without any surprise or smugness after being praised by Jiang Rong. She just said calmly, "As the queen of the emperor and Damu, these are what I should do. I just hope that I will speak the truth and not say those flattering words. I hope you won't be angry with the queen mother."

"It is also because I have always respected the Queen Mother in my heart. I know that the Queen Mother is a person who considers the overall situation and is very reasonable. Otherwise, I would never dare to say these words even in front of the Queen Mother."

Knowing how smart Yu Huan was, there was no need for him to go around in circles with her on some matters.

He was indeed angry just now, and he was angry in front of Yu Huan. Everyone present could see it.

Therefore, Jiang Rong didn't need to explain herself and say that she wasn't angry. She was very serious about her mistake and admitted, "It's undeniable that I was a little angry about what the Queen said just now."

"Over the years, I have been in a high position and am the biological mother of the Emperor. No one dares to speak to me like this, let alone point out my mistakes. Even Imperial Concubine Xia, with whom I have been at odds for so many years, obviously doesn't dare to speak to me like this. But you, Queen, are different."

"It is a blessing for His Majesty to have you as the Emperor, and it is also a blessing for Damu to have you as the Queen. Similarly, it is also a blessing for me to have a daughter-in-law like you who understands the great cause."

"Just now, it was my fault. Because of the Queen's few truthful words, I almost got angry and hurt you. I never apologize to anyone easily. This time, I apologize to you, the Queen."

Among the people present, the most shocked person was Aunt Liu.

It is precisely because Nanny Liu has served the Empress Dowager for so many years that she knows best what kind of temper the Empress Dowager has.

She has been with the empress dowager for these years, so naturally the empress dowager has done many mistakes, but it is precisely because of the empress dowager's identity that she is the empress dowager of Damu and the emperor's biological mother.

So as long as the empress dowager doesn't say that she is wrong, looking at this world, let alone others, even the emperor would not dare to say that the empress dowager did something wrong.

But what Nanny Liu didn't expect was that the empress dowager, who never thought she was wrong, actually admitted her mistakes in front of Yu Huan?

This made Aunt Liu, who was kneeling on the ground, unable to recover for a long time.

Not only Aunt Liu, but also Qiu'er herself.

When he saw that the empress dowager, who had always been high and mighty, actually walked up to his own queen and helped her up from the ground.

To be honest, Qing'er was shocked and couldn't believe it.

Just now, when Qing'er saw the Queen Mother getting angry, she didn't know how scared she was.

She even couldn't understand how her young lady, who had always been smart, could make such a big mistake in front of the empress dowager.

She was extremely scared at the time. The young lady had already had a hard time living in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and now that she had entered the palace, it was unexpected that the young lady had only had a few days of good days. She originally thought that the young lady had finally made it and would have a good life in the future.

But in the end, he said such treasonous words in front of the Queen Mother.

Qiu'er thought that the young lady's good days were coming to an end.

Fortunately-

When I saw the Queen Mother personally helping the Empress up from the ground.

Qiu'er's pale face finally regained some of its normal red color. She patted her chest with her little hands and gasped heavily.

For a moment, Qiu'er almost thought that it was the end for her and the Empress.

"You are right, Queen. I have been fighting with the Imperial Concubine for so many years, and I really did not treat Xia Wanning as my own daughter as the Queen said. Or when I had this idea, even though I don't want to admit it."

"When he saw how much the emperor doted on his wayward daughter, he was obviously happy."

"Seeing my daughter riding on the emperor's head and acting wild, and being spoiled by the emperor to the extreme, I will be even happier for my daughter."

"Although Concubine Xia is unruly and headstrong, she is not an unreasonable person. It is precisely because she is the center of attention in the General's Mansion that after entering the palace, she naturally cannot accept that others are superior to her, even if that person is you, the Queen Mother."

Everything Yu Huan said was true.

Jiang Rong was unwilling to listen at first, and didn't want to listen. She even didn't know how angry she was after listening.

When Jiang Rong heard Yu Huan say this, she didn't know how many times she nodded, because she felt that what Yu Huan said made a lot of sense.

because--

Yu Huan was right about one thing, although he was also right about everything else he said before.

But Jiang Rong felt that what she said was more correct and it touched her heart completely.

That is……

"You're right. In fact, when Concubine Xia first entered the palace, she didn't treat me like this. On the contrary, I was..."

Thinking back to when Xia Wanning had just entered the palace, although the Xia family had worked hard for Damu and made great contributions, Damu's empire over the years was all due to the efforts of the Xia family.

Otherwise, there wouldn’t be Damu, one of the three most powerful countries today.

Jiang Rong certainly knew how important the Xia family was to Damu, but the emperor had not let the Xia family down over the years.

General Xia had followed the late emperor, and it was obvious that Jiang Rong valued General Xia very much, including his daughter.

It was precisely because Xia Wanning was too arrogant because of her favor. Before Xia Wanning entered the palace, what she could not stand the most were those concubines in the harem who relied on the glorious military achievements of their families and acted arrogantly and looked down on others in the harem.

So after Xia Wanning entered the palace, Jiang Rong planned to give her a warning.

If Yu Huan hadn't suddenly mentioned Xia Wanning and what happened before, Jiang Rong would probably not have remembered what happened many years ago when Xia Wanning first entered the palace.

turn out to be--

The person who was wrong has never been Xia Wanning, but the original self?

It was me. From the very beginning when Xia Wanning entered the palace, I had made up my mind to give Xia Wanning a warning, right?

At this moment, Jiang Rong seemed to have aged ten years and could hardly stand.

This time, before Nanny Liu came over to support Jiang Rong, Yu Huan was very considerate and supported Jiang Rong, then helped her walk to her seat and sat down.

"Queen Mother."

Yu Huan looked at Jiang Rong in front of him with a complicated expression.

At this moment, Jiang Rong no longer had any of her previous arrogance. She was silent for a while, then raised her head and looked at Yu Huan, staring at her for a while, and then suddenly smiled.

She laughed a little self-deprecatingly: "Empress, now I finally understand why you were unwilling to take sides before. No matter how intense the quarrel between me and Concubine Xia was, everyone in the palace knew that you were someone close to me, but you, the Queen, never took sides."

"Even I know that you, Queen, don't belong to anyone's camp. You only belong to yourself."

Yu Huan did not explain much about Jiang Rong's words, because it was just as she said, whether it was her before entering the palace or her after entering the palace.

Or maybe she is reborn...

In fact, in the previous life, when I was with Hua Qingluo, in such an empty harem, if nothing else, at least Hua Qingluo protected herself very well.

He and that man could humiliate and bully her at will.

But other women, or anyone else, don't even think about bullying her, otherwise, they will all pay with their lives!

"You are right, Queen. Your words have really made all these years worthwhile for me. They have also made me thoroughly understand that there is always someone better than you. For all these years, since I became the Queen Mother, there has been no one who can really oppose me, which has caused me to be too single-minded in both doing things and thinking."

"The matter between Qingluan and Qingnu was indeed my fault. I shouldn't have interfered. Who the emperor wants to favor is his own business. Just like what you said, Queen, the emperor is an adult and no longer a child. The emperor has his own opinions and is the ruler of a country. I really shouldn't have interfered too much with the emperor!"

As he spoke, Jiang Rong rubbed his brows as if he was a little tired. He really was too old and no longer useful!
