Chapter 55:
Do you think that now you are out of the palace, I cant do anything to you?
Su Yuyangs attitude made Mingyues brow furrow. Ever since she was little, no one dared to treat her like this. Even Su Yuyang, when he was facing her before this, always was simple and cute, and when he didnt know her identity, he merely acted more recklessly, but he was never rude. When he came to know of her identity, he maintained the proper etiquette.
Now, he looked like he was not afraid of the sky and was careless to anything in the world. This Su Yuyang made her a little uncomfortable.
Of course not. Your Majesty is the mother of the people. In the world, no matter who you are, wherever you are, your Majesty will do whatever she wants. How can others resist? The corners of Su Yuyangs mouth turned up slightly as he said that.
You mean to say that I am a tyrant? Hearing that, the Empress frowned. In his eyes, was she such a person?
I dont dare. He said he did not dare, but his face was hanging brightly, as if saying, Of course you are!
You!
Ming Yue wanted to slap the table in anger, but she felt that if she did so, wouldnt his accusation be confirmed? In the end, she just sat in place and did not move except for clenching her fists to suppress her anger. She had never hid her emotions in front of Yuyang, and never concealed her thoughts because in front of him, she felt no need to conceal, hide, or control herself. Probably, it was because she knew that he would never use anything she said for his own goals, nor did he have the confidence and backing to do so anyways.
On the other hand, in front of the Lord, the concubines in the harem, she will never reveal her true emotions, as behind these people stood families of power or ministers in court. Her attitude towards them will be interpreted as an attitude towards their families, and she cannot be careless.
However, Yuyang is different. He does not represent anyone, and he is just him. She could only let her guard down in front of him, and only in his palace. There, Linglong called her Mother and addressed him as Father like any other family. This was what she wanted the most when she was a teenager. At that time, she was so overwhelmed by the affairs of the state, being watched by so many pairs of eyes, unable to sleep at night, that she wished she was an ordinary girl. That way, the only thing she needed to worry about was earning money and marrying a desirable gentleman. Later, the two of them would spend their time together and have a few capable girls and beautiful boys. She would rather live that life instead of endlessly watching those people come here every day, men with their minds hellbent on staking a claim to the throne, and her unable to make a move or speak against them.
But now, even Yuyang has changed. He has become so different that she doesnt recognize him anymore.
If there is nothing wrong with your Majesty, please return to the palace at once. The outside of the palace is too dangerous. If something happens, this lowly Yuyang cant bear the consequences.
Ultimately, Su Yuyang did drink quite the amount of alcohol. He was so sleepy at that moment, but the woman was still sitting there silently, and didnt speak or leave, so he was very helpless. It was even more impossible for him to ask her to stay and sleep over, as there was only one bed in the house. He didnt understand this womans mind. The Empress of a country actually ran alone in the middle of the night to the house of the man that she had abandoned What did she want?
In fact, he simply could not see this woman as a woman, but more as a man. In his mind, the Empress was definitely raised by a man, and the kind of negative practices are also done by men. Women are softhearted, how can this woman have such a hard heart? Even if the woman in front of him looks no less than any woman he has ever seen, this country is beautiful.
With the heart of the scum to think like this Empress, he came to understand her current actions a little bit more. Perhaps, she imagined the man whom she abandoned will die and cannot live on his own without her, forever waiting for her to come to help. Yet, to her surprise, he was doing pretty well. Every day, he kills fish in the market to make money, and he could drink the night away with friends if he so wished, as if his past life never happened.
Are you feeling uncomfortable from this, oh dear Empress? Are you uncomfortable with the idea of being ignored and forgotten?
Realizing this, it really made him disdain her further. You are the one who drove people away. Dont let others forget that you are also you. What do you want? If you cant forget it, you will not want to leave. If you dont leave, there will always be trouble around you that you hate. Was it fun to ask for trouble?
Are you driving me away?
Mingyue was a little sad. She escaped the palace in the middle of the night secretly and waited for him here regardless of her own safety and the trouble that would arise might she be discovered, but he was actually driving her away so coldly?
Do you still want me to keep you around overnight, Your Majesty? Your Majesty should let Yuyang live in peace. This is a simple place, and if your ministers come to know of it, they will say that Yuyang has neglected the Empress, and they will condemn Yuyang to death. Also, now that Yuyang has been banished from the palace, how can he stay with you again? If your harem concubines know about it, it wont be worthwhile for Yuyang to get a name of fox charm.
Su Yuyangs eyes were full of sarcasm. When the original owner was in the palace, he tried his best to let the Empress stay for a while, and not for himself, but for his daughter Linglong. The people in that palace are not too good at stepping on the low and the high. If the empress stays in his palace for only a short period of time, the people there would think he and his daughter were losing the Empress favor, and the two will not be treated well soon after. Thus, every time before the Empress came before, he would not hesitate to put all the decorations up in his palace.
Now, he does not want to let the empress sit here and keep disturbing his rest, but she still looks like she does not want to leave. What kind of grudge does she have with him? Could it be that scum men and women are all like this?
You
Ming Yue was again irritated by a burst of anger that was growing harder to suppress by the second.
No one knows that I am here today.
No one knows yet you mean. Even when you get up a few times in the middle of the night, it can be known from various sources, not to mention that no one in the middle of the night ran out. With such a big commotion, its time for a few more of the killers to come over and be played by him tomorrow.
Besides, you call yourself lonely. Isnt it good for you to stay alone in the palace forever? Why did you come here to harm me? If he didnt have some skills, he would have died eight hundred times already when he changed to the original owner.
Your Majesty really thinks that no one knows?
There were a lot of complaints in his heart, and he couldnt help rolling his eyes as he sat down opposite the Empress and picked up the teapot to drink water.
Since youre not letting me sleep, then me drinking water should be okay, right?
You You this
The Empress was shocked by Su Yuyangs belligerent attitude. Why was he nothing like the person taught by his father-in-law in the palace? How come you are so unsure when you come out, how can you just sit down in front of her without being given permission, then pick up the teapot and drink water from the spout, gulping so loudly too?
What else does he really think? Is it possible that she is a self-righteous fool in his eyes?
Your Majesty has forgotten that I was originally just a crude fishermans son who knew nothing. Unlike those dainty noble sons in your palace, this is my true face.
Su Yuyang glanced at the Empress, who looked like she had eaten flies, and his heart suddenly became inexplicably painful. Eaten flies what? You have never eaten flies, right? He really wanted to see what the scum girl looks like when she eats flies. After thinking as much, he spoke his mind.
Oh, after so many years in the palace, I can finally leave the palace and be myself. How refreshing! If it werent for my daughter, why would I suffer through that hardship?
Sure enough, after hearing these words, the Empress finally showed an expression of eating flies, and she couldnt speak for a long while. She was furious, no longer able to maintain her respectful demeanor as she shouted, You still remember your daughter?
You still know your daughter? You dont know how much Linglong is worried about you!
Your Majesty, keep your voice down, this house is not soundproof. If the neighbor wakes up in the middle of the night, its your fault.
The mother of the people is not even letting her people well.
Why does she feel that this guy is taking revenge on her?
Your Majesty, we are talking about you here. What Empress are you if you cant even protect your own daughter? If your daughter follows you, surely you will take good care of her. If she is not doing well, then it could only be your fault, and your title of Empress would all be for nothing. As for me, Im just a commoner, and I cant influence the life of a princess. After all, I cant do anything, right? As the saying goes, those who are more powerful, can and should do more work. Thus, I entrust my daughter to you.
Unable to figure out whether Su Yuyang was being flattering or sarcastic, the Empress was suppressed by his words and left at a loss. What does he mean that her position as Empress has been for nothing? How dare he talk to her like this? Of course she can protect her daughter! Her daughter is living a good life now, how dare he say that her daughter is living a bad life
Suddenly, Ming Yue remembered Linglong crying, and the words of the palace people that she refuses to eat and drink. Linglong indeed has a bad life
Well, its late, and I want to sleep. You better go back now!
Taking advantage of the Empress momentary silence, Su Yuyang got up, pushed her out, and closed the door with a snap.
In truth, the Empress has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, and she had all the kung fu training ingrained in her bones. Thus, the Empress thought, if she didnt want to leave, it would be impossible for Yuyang to force her out.
Unfortunately for her, Su Yuyang is different. His strength in this body is not for nothing. Now, the empress could only look blankly at the closed door in front of her, immobile and in shock. Luckily, her restraint prevented her from knocking on the door or breaking it down.
Regardless, she was not willing to leave like that. It took her so much effort to come out, but now, all she did was listen to Su Yuyang lecture her? Since she became Empress, no one dared to lecture her like this! Even the intellectuals who taught her only dared to give her euphemistic reminder. Where would she find someone who dares to point her nose and say that she can not take care of her daughter, and that her title as the Empress will be in vain?
Its simply simply unreasonable!!
Fine! He doesnt want her to stay here, and she doesnt want to come back anymore! She will go back and tell Linglong that she is not allowed to think about this vulgar fisherman anymore. She will find another good father for Linglong to take good care of her and laugh with her everyday.
