Transmigrating Female Supreme: The Peerless Husband Depends on Me

On the boat on this vast river, the people on board are all powerful people whom Su Yue cannot afford to offend.

Su Yue thought to herself, if I can't afford to provoke him, can I not just avoid him?

So, she decided to reduce her appearances in public as much as possible and avoid them whenever possible to avoid trouble.

However, things often don't go as planned.

The next day, the people around the emperor sent someone to call Su Yue over in a haughty manner.

Su Yue was extremely reluctant, her brows were tightly furrowed, and she was full of resistance.

In fact, after her husband knew about this, he insisted on going with her, fearing that she would be wronged and have no one to help her.

But Su Yue decisively refused. She looked at the husbands with heartache, especially those who were pregnant, which made her even more worried.

She thought, I would have to kneel down and pay my respects anyway, so why should I bring them along to suffer with me?

What if one of them gets bumped into something?

Su Yue gently stroked Mu Feng's face: "Be good and wait for me at home. Don't worry. I will be back soon."

Although the husbands were unwilling, they also knew Su Yue's intentions and could only nod.

Su Yue took a deep breath, forced himself to be alert, straightened his clothes, and walked with heavy steps towards where the emperor was.

Along the way, she was full of thoughts, wondering what kind of situation she would face this time.

Su Yue came to the emperor's room with a nervous mood.

The moment she stepped into the room, she saw that in addition to the emperor, there were two or three middle-aged men serving carefully.

Su Yue did not dare to be negligent in the slightest, and quickly knelt on the ground, bowed her head and said respectfully: "This humble girl pays homage to the Grand Majesty."

The Grand Empress sat on the couch, glanced at Su Yue nonchalantly, then instantly put on an amiable look and said, "You've been so kind to me, there's no need to be so formal. Outside, I'm just an old woman, not the Grand Empress. Get up."

After hearing this, Su Yue was speechless.

I secretly complained: If you didn't want me to kneel, you should have said it directly at the beginning. You waited until I finished kneeling before telling me all this. Isn't this deliberately embarrassing me? If I hadn't kneeled just now, would you have said that I didn't know the difference between respect and inferiority?

But even though she was thinking this in her heart, Su Yue did not dare to show it on her face. Her body did not move, and she did not dare to say anything more. She just replied respectfully, "I dare not."

The room fell into a brief silence, and the atmosphere became increasingly solemn.

After a long while, Su Yue continued cautiously, "Your Majesty is kind, and I am deeply grateful. However, etiquette cannot be abandoned. I hope Your Majesty will not blame me for my reservedness."

After she finished speaking, she slowly stood up, lowered her head, not daring to look directly at the Grand Emperor, and quietly waited for the Grand Emperor's next words.

Su Yue caught a glimpse of the emperor nodding with satisfaction, and couldn't help but complain in her heart, why couldn't he just say what he thought directly? He had to beat around the bush like this, which was really hard to understand.

She felt that every step she took in front of this powerful man was like walking on thin ice, and she was trembling with fear.

It is really tiring to deal with these powerful people. You have to be nervous all the time, afraid that you might make a big mistake and lose your head.

Su Yue was full of anxiety and had a lot of random thoughts in her mind.

At this moment, the Grand Emperor's voice, neither loud nor soft, came from a distance: "Please take a seat!"

Su Yue hurriedly bowed slightly and thanked him with a sincere and fearful look: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Then he nervously sat down slowly on the chair next to him.

As soon as he sat down, the emperor began to ask questions, but they were all seemingly ordinary questions, such as the situation of the imperial examination, how many children he had, and how many husbands he had.

These questions seemed to be trivial and ordinary, but the powerful aura and majestic demeanor of the Emperor made Su Yue dare not relax at all.

She tried to maintain her composure and answered every question carefully, but in her heart she simply couldn't regard the emperor in front of her as just a kind old man.

Su Yue felt that every look and every pause of the Emperor seemed to have a deeper meaning.

Cold sweat broke out on her palms unconsciously, and her back was already soaked with sweat, but she did not dare to slack off or be negligent in the slightest.

The Emperor chatted idly like this for a long time. Su Yue sat there restlessly, feeling that every minute and every second was extremely long, as if millions of ants were crawling in her heart, and she was almost unable to sit still.

Just when Su Yue's patience had almost reached its limit, the Emperor finally asked the question that she wanted to ask in her heart.

I only heard the emperor's tone sink slightly: "Su Jieyuan."

The word "Jieyuan" frightened Su Yue so much that she almost knelt down. She forced herself to calm herself down, but still knelt down on the ground with a plop.

The emperor enjoyed the food being fed by the middle-aged man next to him and asked casually, "Since you chose to save people that day, why did you cover up the truth?"

Su Yue's voice trembled: "I didn't know the status of the Grand Emperor at that time. I just wanted to save someone's life out of instinct, hoping to get lucky. I didn't expect that I would save the Grand Emperor.

This is all due to the great blessing of the Grand Emperor, and this is just a coincidence."

After saying that, Su Yue pressed his forehead tightly against the ground, not daring to breathe. His heart was beating like a frightened rabbit.

The room was eerily quiet for a moment. Su Yue could even clearly hear her own rapid breathing and heartbeat. She didn't know how the emperor would deal with her next, and her heart was filled with fear and anxiety.

The Grand Emperor's majestic voice came slowly: "You are not telling the truth. You can lie to others, but I know that what you are holding in your mouth is not just ginseng slices."

Su Yue's heart skipped a beat, and she cursed herself in her heart: "I told you not to meddle in other people's business. I should have known not to save you earlier!"

But she also knew that trying to play tricks on someone who had been an emperor was like hitting a rock with an egg.

Thinking of this, she decided to answer truthfully.

Su Yue quickly replied, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I... I only know some pharmacology and am not a real doctor.

The situation was urgent at the time. I wanted to save people but was afraid of making a big mistake.

I don’t know how to explain the function of the medicine to others, and I can’t guarantee that it will be effective.

I'm afraid... I'm afraid that if the emperor doesn't recover, others will mistakenly think that it was the result of my medicine.

Fortunately, the Emperor was blessed with great fortune and was safe and sound, otherwise I would have been guilty of this and would have died.

But I guaranteed that the medicine was good and would only do good to the body if taken. However, my words were not influential and I was afraid that no one would believe what I said at that time.

I am a coward and afraid of death. I hope the Emperor will give me a chance to reform myself."

Su Yue said these words in one breath, her forehead pressed tightly against the ground, her body trembling slightly uncontrollably.

Her heart beat like a drum as she waited for the emperor's response, feeling as if every second was a long, torturous moment. The room was eerily quiet, as if even the air had frozen.
