The moment she uttered those words, Ji Linghui started writhing even more furiously within the palace guards’ grasp, whimpers coming from her mouth.
Empress Dowager Xiaojing could not bear to watch on, and she looked at Long Yang and said, “Your Majesty, the Prudence Consort is still an imperial consort, after all. Even if she’s made a mistake, she shouldn’t be treated this way. What’s more, it seems to me that she’s been wronged. If this matter is dealt with so hastily, it would be hard to convince others and explain to Duke Ji, too.”
The corners of Long Yang’s mouth turned up. “You’re absolutely right, Empress Dowager. However, if a prince breaks the law, he is just as guilty as a commoner. The Prudence Consort is an imperial consort, but she has the heart of a villain and the mind of a fiend. She tried to kill the Prince, yet she refused to repent and kept on denying responsibility. How could I tolerate such a wicked woman? Don’t bother yourself about this matter, Empress Dowager, for I have my own judgment.”
Speechless, the Empress Dowager could not help turning the Buddhist prayer beads in her hands rapidly.
The Emperor was basically telling her not to interfere.
How dreadful of the Emperor to embarrass her in this manner in front of so many people.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe nodded. “In that case, I won’t worry myself for nothing. However, you’re always busy handling state affairs and governing the kingdom, Your Majesty. As a consort of the harem, the Prudence Consort should be dealt with by the Empress. The prosperity of the kingdom is in your hands, and you mustn’t trouble yourself over such trivial matters.” She then shifted her gaze to Lu Liangwei.
Anyone who had ears could make out the hidden meaning of her words.
She was hinting that the Emperor should not meddle in affairs of the harem.
Lu Liangwei naturally picked up the hint, too. At this moment, she met the Empress Dowager’s slightly murky gaze and said unhurriedly, “I don’t think you understand, Your Imperial Highness. The Prudence Consort’s crime is not just a trivial harem matter. She had committed treason by intending to kill the Grand Princess’ son.”
The Empress Dowager frowned. “How is that treason?”
Lu Liangwei shot her a glance, then lowered her head slightly and reminded implicitly, “Your Imperial Highness, the harem should not meddle in state affairs. I wouldn’t dare to comment.”
The Empress Dowager’s fingers tightened on the prayer beads, and for a moment, she was unable to speak.
Behind her, Long Chi glanced at Lu Liangwei in surprise.
He did not expect Lu Liangwei to be so quick-witted.
She deliberately aggravated the Prudence Consort’s crime to treason, then countered Royal Grandmother by taking advantage of the saying that the harem should not meddle in state affairs.
Why did he never notice that she had such an intelligent side?
He cast her a furtive glance, then looked away.
Looking at the lowered head of the girl beside him, Long Yang chuckled softly. What a clever tongue this young lady had!
However, Wanyan Zhi was the descendant of the former Danjue Prince, so strictly speaking, Ji Linghui had indeed committed treason by trying to kill him.
“Since it’s a state matter, then the harem cannot intervene indeed. Please deal with it as you see fit, Your Majesty,” Empress Dowager Xiaojing forced the words out reluctantly.
“Wise words, Empress Dowager.” Long Yang suddenly complimented.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe Empress Dowager could barely prevent her face from stiffening.
By calling her wise, the Emperor was insinuating that she was foolish.
She squeezed the prayer beads so hard that her knuckles turned white.
With a forced smile, she said, “You know how to flatter me, Your Majesty.”
Without sparing her another glance, Long Yang ordered Long Chi, “The weather’s certainly fine today. You should spend some quality time with your grandmother, Crown Prince.”
“Yes, Royal Uncle,” Long Chi quickly responded respectfully.
Long Yang took Lu Liangwei’s hand and walked away from the lake.
Long Qingzhi and the others followed.
When Ji Linghui saw the Empress Dowager turn and leave, the light that had just appeared in her eyes immediately went out..
