Chapter 1325: Prince Li's Extra: Confrontation
When Concubine Xu got the news, the imperial study was already in a mess. Emperor Su Jing stood beside the imperial desk with messy hair, staring at Ah Man angrily. Ah Man's clothes were not messy, but the anger in his eyes was still burning like fire.
The father and daughter confronted each other across a desk.
"Father, just do this for my mother. When my mother is buried, if you don't want to see me and Xuan'er, we will follow the funeral procession and not come back. We will guard my mother's tomb."
Ah Man waited until the anger and resentment in her heart dissipated before speaking, looking at her father as she spoke.
She didn't want to come to her father for her mother's face, but the rumors from outside were too ugly. They even said that the reason why her father and her mother were separated was because her father caught her mother meeting someone in Fengyang Palace, saying that her mother had always had someone in her heart all these years. There were even rumors that Xuan'er was not her father's child.
And the previous events seemed to confirm these rumors. When my father entered my mother's Fengyang Palace, all the servants in the palace died. It was rumored that my father was angry after raping her and took his anger out on everyone. My father sent Xuan'er to Concubine Zhu's palace for house arrest because he knew that Xuan'er was not his own flesh and blood.
These rumors have been pouring out like water in the past few days. Ah Man tried his best to stop them. Murong Kai sent news that someone was instigating this message and his heart was worthy of death. But the person behind it has not been found yet.
They can't be so passive forever. If they continue like this, Xuan'er's position as the prince will be in danger.
Even if he barely keeps the position of the prince, he will ascend to the throne in the future. I am afraid that he will not be able to escape the damage of rumors for his whole life.
In order to protect Xuan'er, Ah Man thought again and again, and then came to my father's imperial study and asked him to be present on the day of my mother's funeral, just for the sake of the love between husband and wife, just for his own living children.
But Su Jing actually refused.
He said that he had made it clear with Ah Man's mother that day, and that they would never see each other again.
Because of this sentence, Ah Man was furious and could not help smashing everything in the imperial study.
While smashing, she questioned her father, "You and your mother will never see each other again, so do you ignore your reputation? Now people outside say that you are cold-hearted and have no feelings for your wife who has been in love for more than ten years. You are a ruthless emperor, and you are good to Bei An, right?
You have fulfilled what you said about never seeing your mother again, but have you considered me and Xuan'er? Now there are rumors outside that Xuan'er is someone else's child. Is it because this is the fact that my mother really cheated on you?
You are such a cold-hearted man, and my mother did the right thing to cheat on you. I am proud of my mother.
In anger, he spoke without thinking, but every word touched Su Jing's heart.
Seeing that Ah Man was still talking nonsense, he finally couldn't help but shouted: rebellious daughter.
Ah Man stopped moving her hands when she heard his words, and looked at Su Jing with tears on her face.
Her father had once doted on her and believed that she was the best girl in the world, but now, her father kept saying that she was a rebellious daughter.
Deep in her heart, she was extremely disappointed, and all her persistence collapsed at this moment.
Su Jing also realized that his words were a bit heavy, and he wanted to save it, but it was too late, so the father and daughter confronted each other in front of the desk.
In the end, Ah Man had no choice but to compromise. There was no way. She had a soft spot. She had to protect Xuan'er and give her mother the last glory. So, she begged her father to give her mother the last glory. She and her brother were willing to leave and never get in the way of her father again.
Su Jing didn't expect Ah Man to say such a thing. He looked at him blankly, a little at a loss and a little flustered.
