Isn’t Chapter 153 a warning to me?
"Lord Yang, if you have any objections to me, just say it directly. You are a noble lady of the third rank, but as a woman, I am also protected by the court. What if you delay letting me get up and hurt my body?" Su Yueyao said weakly.
Her whole expression was pitiful... Even Fu Xin, who was kneeling beside her, couldn't help but take a look. It was the first time he saw a woman so delicate, and her tone of voice was even softer than the man who was competing for the emperor's favor...
Yang Cejun did not react to Su Yueyao's move. Is she so weak? The bowing time was not long! Aren't women arrogant and domineering? Shouldn't she have argued with him loudly for this?
"I just heard that you are the wife of my half-brother, and I forgot to ask you to stand up. Fu Liu, why don't you help Miss Su up?" Yang Cejun reacted and said immediately.
Su Yueyao didn't expect Yang Cejun to react so quickly.
"Don't come over here. You just kept scolding me. I guess you look down on me. I don't want you to help me." Su Yueyao said in tears as soon as she saw Fu Liu.
The whole person was trembling, as if he had suffered a great injustice...
Yang Cejun felt a little annoyed when he saw Su Yueyao like this. He came today specifically to ask His Majesty to let him go back to visit his mother. His mother was stripped of the title of Lady of Imperial Concubine and had been depressed. He was a little worried that when His Majesty came back from court and saw Su Yueyao's pitiful and miserable expression, he was afraid that he would not be able to explain it.
He hadn't done anything yet! And it turned out like this. He hadn't even thrown a punch, but he was hit back... Why did he feel a little wronged?
"Fu Liu, hurry up and help Miss Su up." Yang Cejun frowned and said again.
Fu Liu obediently walked to Su Yueyao and grabbed her arm to pull her up.
"Don't touch me, go away." Su Yueyao struggled, and fell to the ground again. This time, Su Yueyao screamed.
Fu Liu was a little surprised. He had just held her so firmly, how could she struggle free? The key point was that he was just holding her, and she had just stood up a little bit. It wouldn't be so painful if she fell again!
When Fu Xin heard Su Yueyao's screams, his heart trembled immediately. Was this a real fall or a fake one? He immediately ignored the rules and stood up to support Su Yueyao.
"Is Miss Su okay?"
Su Yueyao was sobbing and shaking, and did not answer Fu Xin's words.
"What happened?" Fu'an's voice came.
When Yang Cejun heard Fu'an's voice, his body shook. His years of experience in the harem told him that this was a very bad situation.
Su Yueyao glanced and saw a yellow figure. She immediately said loudly, "Your Majesty, I, Su Yueyao, came to the palace specially to express my gratitude. I happened to meet Lord Yang. I don't know how I offended him. He first watched me salute and didn't let me stand up, causing me to fall. Then he asked his servants to help me stand up and deliberately threw me down again."
Su Yueyao spoke so loudly that Fu Xin, who was supporting her, was frightened, and Yang Cejun's servants were so scared that they knelt down.
The Queen was watching the farce and felt somewhat happy. There was more joy wherever Su Yueyao was. She was well aware of the struggles among her queens. There were many cases where they were not allowed to stand up during the ceremony. It was just a show of power at most. But Su Yueyao just didn't want to do that and went straight for it!
This Concubine Yang, who had been in the palace for so many years, was the first time she saw him look a little flustered!
Looking at Su Yueyao's little face, which was pale with fear, her eyes filled with tears, and her whole body was shaking, like a pitiful little thing. If she hadn't known Su Yueyao's previous situation, she would have believed it.
Fu'an saw the emperor's scrutinizing look and winked at Fuxin, asking him to tell him what had happened.
When Fuxin received Fuan's signal, he immediately recounted what had just happened without any exaggeration.
When Yang Cejun heard Fuxin's words, he immediately said, "Your Majesty, I didn't mean to embarrass Lady Su on purpose. I was just curious that she was my half-brother's wife, so I wanted to take a closer look."
After hearing what Yang Cejun said, the Queen waited for Su Yueyao to speak, but found that she had no intention of opening her mouth at all. She lowered her head and no one knew what she was thinking.
The Queen couldn't help but ask, "Lady Su, don't you want to say a few words?"
"Your Majesty, what do you want me to say? Lord Yang said it was nice, but who would believe it? Everyone in Fengdu knows that the Yang family and my master have fallen out. Your sister just insulted me and Qianxun, and Madam Yang has lost her imperial decree. Lord Yang just asked me to salute and didn't let me stand up. Wasn't that a way to intimidate me?"
"Your Majesty, it was your personal imperial decree that sent me to Fengdu. I am very grateful for your reward, but I feel that Fengdu is not suitable for me. First, I almost lost my life, and then I was looked down upon when I entered the palace. Lord Yang's servants have been scolding me since they saw me. Your Majesty, now I feel that Yixian is more suitable for me. I beg Your Majesty to let me leave Fengdu!" Su Yueyao said with a choked voice.
When the empress heard Su Yueyao's words, she realized that she had a clear mindset and was going to retreat in order to advance. She then looked at the kneeling Yang Concubine. The Yang family had been restless ever since they wanted to form an alliance with the Xie family. Normally, relying on his father being the prime minister and a first-rank lady, he often tormented the princes of lower ranks than him.
Since Su Yueyao handed over the ladder today, it would be fine for her to give her an appropriate punishment.
"Why did Lord Yang come to see me today?"
"Your Majesty, I want to go home to visit my parents, so..."
"Oh? Lord Yang thinks that my treatment of your mother's family is wrong, and that you have to go back to comfort your parents?"
"Your Majesty, I did not mean that."
"Lord Yang, do you know that Su Yueyao is a literati painter who was ordered by me personally to enter Fengdu to participate in the competition of the Literary Museum? She is also a woman. She bowed to you because of your status as a third-rank Lord Yang. But are you used to scolding women at will like your servants?" His Majesty asked in an oppressive tone.
"Your Majesty, I don't have any." After saying this in a panic, Yang Cejun directly hit Fu Liu who was kneeling beside him and said, "Do I usually let you be so domineering, my servant?"
Fu Liu lay on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I was displeased with Lady Su and did it on purpose. You don't know. It was all my fault."
"Your Majesty, I failed to teach you well. I know my fault."
"Come here, Lord Yang failed to discipline his servants strictly, causing them to disrespect women. Today, all the servants following Lord Yang will be punished with thirty strokes of the cane. Lord Yang will be confined to his home for three months and punished to copy the male ethics thirty times." The queen gave the order directly.
"His Majesty."
"His Majesty.
"Yang Cejun did not expect His Majesty to punish him so harshly, and he immediately wanted to beg for mercy.
Here, His Majesty followed the imperial guards and took everyone away.
When Su Yueyao heard Yang Cejun's cry, her heart trembled. This was the imperial power in feudal society. A single word from the empress could directly take a person's life.
After the empress issued the decree, she turned directly into the imperial study.
