Chapter 1158: Chapter 1154: Interested in the Emperor?
Chu Yihan had already left Yangzhou Prefecture, but she was still walking slowly along the corridor. Seeing Wang Yun looking around, out of concern for the people under the heavens, Empress Su Yingxue asked Wang Yun, “Is there anything related to the case that you need to tell the emperor? If it’s not appropriate to speak in public, I, your aunt, can pass the message to the emperor!”
Wang Yun quickly performed a courtesy toward Su Yingxue, “Thank you, Aunt, for your care. I have said all that needs to be said, and there is nothing to avoid, but… it is my first time seeing the emperor and the empress, and I was just curious.”
Su Yingxue pointed to the door, “If you’re curious, go outside and look! Go and pay your respects, and you can see everything clearly!”
“I dare not,” Wang Yun said. “I’ve heard that the emperor and the empress love each other deeply… I dare not disturb them.” Although Wang Yun said she dared not disturb, the envy was clear in her eyes, something anyone could see.
Su Yingxue guessed, “You couldn’t possibly have taken a liking to the emperor, could you?”
“I dare not!” said Wang Yun, and she suddenly knelt down.
Su Yingxue helped her up, smiling awkwardly, “That was just a joke, don’t be nervous. I won’t talk nonsense in front of the emperor!”
“Thank you, Aunt!”
Wang Yun followed Su Yingxue out of Yangzhou Prefecture, and during those few steps, Su Yingxue gossiped with her, “The emperor and the empress do have a good relationship, just like any ordinary couple, nothing special.”
Wang Yun was extremely shocked, “Even between the emperor and the empress, it can be like any ordinary couple?”
Thinking of her own interactions with Chu Yihan, Su Yingxue’s eyes and brows were filled with an affecting gentleness, “Of course it’s possible! They’re just different in status. After all, they’re husband and wife, eating together, sleeping together, raising children together, not much difference.”
Wang Yun could hardly understand, and before she could ask further, Su Yingxue had jumped into the carriage.
Seeing her eagerness, Wang Yun thought she must be a very diligent aunt serving the emperor and the empress.
On the ride home, she envied the noble empress, born of high status and beautiful, fortunate to marry the most prestigious individual of the Great Cheng Dynasty, and even luckier to be the sole favorite of the emperor, sharing everyday life with him like any common husband would.
This truly was a blessing not attainable even in a past life.
Not like her!
Wang Yun heaved a deep sigh, just as the carriage arrived at her house, she heard swearing from outside, “Little Tart, come out here! I lock you in the house and you still manage to sneak out the back door. Today, I’ve sealed the back door, let’s see where you can run to now!”
The admiration on Wang Yun’s face instantly turned icy as she lifted the curtain and stepped out of the carriage, charging toward the man who was yelling at her, “What does it matter if you lock me up? Wang Ao, I’m telling you, my father’s case is now being personally reviewed by the emperor, Lord Wang himself took my statements today, my father’s death was wronged, and I will surely seek justice for him! If you keep blocking me… I will fight you to the death!”
At the entrance of the Wang Family mansion, Wang Ao was completely petrified.
He thought he hadn’t heard correctly, “You… what did you say? The emperor is personally reviewing? You must be dreaming!”
The emperor has nothing better to do?
To review his family’s father’s case?
Wasn’t that case already cleared up and about to be pronounced?
Wang Yun, with a stronger presence than ever, her figure trim, not as tall as Wang Ao, but with a heart stubbornly fighting for her father, pushed Wang Ao back a step, “Whether I am dreaming or not, just look at the carriage behind me!”
