After rebirth, she remarried the crazy-criticizing emperor's uncle: she doted on him to the bon

Xiao Muli, who had been silent all this time, couldn't help but frown. He inexplicably felt disgusted by Wu Qingyue's words to him.

"Yinnan, don't be rude to the Imperial Aunt!"

Hearing this, Lin Yinnan just curled her lips.

"Big Brother, how could you be so cruel to the Emperor's wife?"

The one who spoke was the third prince, Xiao Muyu, one of the other two princes.

Xiao Moyu's mother's family also has a prominent status, and he is also one of the favorable figures in the fight for the throne. Except for the seventh prince Xiao Muye, who is his half-sister, he regards other princes as "thorns in his eyes and flesh."

Xiao Muli knew that he was deliberately looking for trouble, so he did not answer him.

But he could tolerate this, but Lin Yinnan, who was "eager to protect her husband", could not.

"What's wrong with my husband being mean to me? He's doing it for my own good. What does it have to do with you? You're really meddling in other people's business!"

When Xiao Muyu heard this, he immediately became angry——

"Sister-in-law, I'm standing up for you, and you don't appreciate it?"

"Who cares about your chatter!" Lin Yinnan said disdainfully.

"Okay you!"

Xiao Muyu was so angry that he laughed: "I think you are the one who is 'a dog biting Lu Dongbin and not knowing the kindness of a good person'!"

Lin Yinnan put her hands on her hips and showed no sign of weakness: "If you have good intentions, why did you try to sow discord between me and Mu Li from the very beginning? Don't think I don't know what's in your mind."

Xiao Muyu's face changed and he was about to retort, but Xiao Muli on the side spoke first.

"Third brother, Yinnan was the one who was wrong in the beginning. I've already taught her a lesson. Let's leave it at that."

Xiao Muli seemed to be trying to calm things down, but in fact he was secretly warning Xiao Muyu not to bother him anymore.

Xiao Muyu snorted coldly.

Xiao Muyu didn't insist, but Xiao Muye refused to do it!

He pointed at Xiao Muli's nose with one finger and said, "Big Brother, how dare you talk to my brother?"

Being pointed at by someone, and the other person was his nominal "brother", no matter how good-tempered Xiao Muli was, he felt a little angry at this moment.

But he knew that the current situation was very special and he couldn't "lose the big picture for the small"!

His hands were clenched tightly under his sleeves, and when he spoke again, his tone was very calm.

"Mu Li did not mean to offend. If I have offended you, please calm down, Third Brother and Seventh Brother."

His attitude could be described as extremely humble. Wu Qingyue couldn't help but feel sorry for him when she saw him like this.

"Mu Li, you are the eldest prince, why do you want to apologize to them both?"

Lin Yinnan couldn't stand it any longer. She jumped out and accused him, "You two, you have no respect for your elders and are looking for trouble. Do you have any respect for the law?"

Her voice was quite loud, and as soon as she said this, everyone in the audience immediately looked towards them.

"What happened?"

A sharp female voice sounded. Who else would dare to speak in this situation except Zhou Yurou, the mother of a country?

She was wearing a phoenix robe, a symbol of the queen's position. Outside the phoenix robe, she wore a white dress. There was also a small white flower in her hair. At this moment, she was walking over with the support of a nanny.

"Her Majesty the Empress..."

Lin Yinnan had already been frightened by her own roar, and now the Queen was "challenging" her again, she was so frightened that her legs felt weak...

Xiao Muli hadn't expected things to turn out like this. He cursed in his heart, "Idiot," and apologized, "Mother, I failed to properly manage the people around me. It's my fault."

Zhou Yurou swept her cold gaze over everyone, finally landing on Xiao Muli. "I see that the harem is becoming increasingly unruly. Crown Prince, as your elder brother, you should properly discipline those around you. As for Lin, she committed insubordination and I believe she should be severely punished."

Xiao Muli was shocked and pleaded, "Mother, Yinnan was anxious to protect me and did not mean to offend me. Please be lenient with me."

Zhou Yurou sneered, "The eldest prince is indeed very compassionate to women. However, I will not let go of what happened just now."

At this time, Xiao Muyu stood up and said, "Mother, this matter is all caused by me, and has nothing to do with the Empress Dowager. Please punish me, Mother."

Zhou Yurou raised her eyebrows and said with a half-smile, "Third Brother, don't think that I don't know what you're thinking. You've always been at odds with the eldest brother, and now you want to play the good guy?"

Xiao Muyu lowered his head and dared not say anything more.

Zhou Yurou breathed a sigh of relief. "Ms. Lin will be confined to her house for a month, and the eldest prince will be fined for three months' salary. Ms. Lin, are you willing to accept this?"

"I don't agree!"

As soon as Lin Yinnan finished speaking, there was dead silence all around.

Everyone looked at her in astonishment—

She actually dared to openly defy the Queen's order, which was a crime of great disrespect.

Zhou Yurou's face instantly darkened, and her eyes shot towards Lin Yinnan like ice knives. "You bold Lin, I've already given you a lenient punishment, and you still dare to say you don't accept it?"

Lin Yinnan gritted her teeth and mustered her courage to speak, "Your Majesty, although I am only a woman, I know right from wrong. I spoke out in a moment of desperation, which was indeed inappropriate, but I was only thinking of my husband and had no intention of offending him. If I am confined for a month just because of this unintentional act, wouldn't everyone in the palace be insecure and afraid to express their true feelings?"

How dare she go against her imperial order?

Zhou Yurou suddenly got angry!

"You were right to speak up, but you didn't consider the situation today. Can you afford to delay this matter?"

Lin Yinnan took a deep breath and said slowly, "Your Majesty, I know today's occasion is of great importance, but I believe that revealing one's true feelings should not be condemned. I am willing to accept any other punishment, and I only beg Your Majesty to revoke the order of confinement."

Seeing this, Xiao Muli pleaded again: "Mother, Yinnan is straightforward by nature. She just wants to protect me. Please have mercy on me."

"you--"

Zhou Yurou was about to start scolding, but at this moment, Xiao Shiyi walked over.

"What happened?"

As he asked this, his eyes were on his wife.

Wu Qingyue said: "It's just a small matter. The ceremony is more important. Let's get on with it quickly!"

Little things?

How could a small matter cause such a big commotion?

But since his wife had already spoken, Xiao Shiyi couldn't pursue the matter further.

"Sister-in-law, our brother's ceremony cannot be stopped. Let's put the overall situation first."

After Xiao Shiyi said this, Zhou Yurou could no longer pursue the matter.

She glared at the man hatefully before turning around and walking back to her original position.

"Thank you, uncle, for helping me out." Lin Yinnan said sweetly immediately.

"I'm not doing this for you."

The man left this sentence and walked away without looking back.

"Did you see that? The emperor's uncle said he didn't do it for you, but you really know how to flatter yourself!" Xiao Muye said sarcastically.

"you......"

"Stop saying a few words!"

Wu Qingyue scolded, "You all saw what happened just now. If we call the Queen here again, no one will be happy!"
