Chapter 578 Perhaps, it's just this one thing I like.
The Empress was so angry with Huo Qing that she had no time to care about anything else.
Granny Lan whispered, "Madam Qing is the Fourteenth Prince's tutor. Why don't we let the Fourteenth Prince escort Madam Qing? Your Highness, when you do things... you should act with the demeanor of Your Highness."
The Empress let out a sigh of relief and finally waved her hand.
Upon seeing this, the fourteenth prince was so excited that he quickly chased after them.
After the Fourteenth Prince had walked away, the Empress said unhappily, "That Lady Qing is too arrogant and domineering!"
No one had ever been so disrespectful to her, except for the Emperor and Consort Rui, that arrogant woman who always wanted to contradict her!
Now, there's another Lady Qing.
Granny Lan, however, thought differently: "Your Highness, I think that this Lady Qing is indeed different from other sycophantic women. Is it possible that this is the reason why the Emperor likes her?"
"Would the Emperor like such an impudent woman? Have you seen what happened to Tuoba Feiyuan? Besides, the Emperor loathes that desert flower to the extreme, let alone likes her in the slightest."
The thought of Tuoba Feiyuan's rude and barbaric behavior at the banquet made the Empress feel nauseous.
Do men really like women like this? It's utterly disgusting.
"No, this servant does not think that Madam Qing and Tuoba Feiyuan are the same kind of people. Look at Madam Qing. Although she dislikes entering the palace, this servant can also see that she really dislikes the Emperor. But she is considerate of everyone in the Duke's mansion. No matter how much she dislikes him, she is trying her best to endure it. She is not a barbaric and willful person."
Therefore, how can Lady Qing be the same as Tuoba Feiyuan, who caused such a stir in the city?
"Your Majesty, it's not difficult to see if the Emperor truly appreciates her uniqueness."
These words made the Empress frown and look at her: "What are your thoughts? I still have to go to the Emperor's palace later to apologize to him!"
If she couldn't keep the people and couldn't complete the tasks assigned by the Emperor, it would ultimately be her fault. If she didn't apologize, the Emperor might get angry and blame her again.
“That’s right. If Your Highness goes to apologize, it will be a good opportunity to see what the Emperor thinks of Consort Qing’s ‘rudeness’. If the Emperor is not only not angry, but also finds it interesting, then Consort Qing’s rude nature is the highlight.”
"So what?" The Empress snorted, thoroughly annoyed by the question.
As the emperor's principal wife and the mother of the nation, why would she need to investigate what her husband actually likes about other women?
"If His Majesty truly likes her that much, Your Highness, this is your chance to shine." Granny Lan leaned close to her ear and whispered, "If Your Highness can help His Majesty win over Consort Qing, His Majesty will surely favor you greatly. In the future, if he has any problems he can't solve, he might even come to you for help."
"As the Emperor visits more often, your relationship with the Fourteenth Prince will naturally deepen. Your Highness, you must seize this opportunity and not miss it!"
The Empress pondered for a moment, then grew uneasy: "Although she and the Third Prince of the Chu family are not yet married, she currently holds the title of Third Prince's wife, making her a married woman. If... if the Emperor were to grant her..."
The more the Empress thought about it, the more uneasy she felt: "How will she face people after this? The Emperor can't possibly take her as a concubine. Taking a subject's wife would bring eternal infamy. The Emperor wouldn't let himself become a notorious tyrant in history for the sake of a woman!"
