Chapter 552 - 552: Su Qingqing Feels Wronged
Just as everyone was shocked by the scene before them, the two children pouted and looked aggrieved. “Grandmother Empress Dowager, someone bullied Ye’er.”
The ferocity from kicking someone just now instantly disappeared. Su Ye’s small appearance looked very aggrieved.
“Sob sob. Grandmother Empress Dowager, someone insulted us. Qingqing feels so wronged.” After Su Qingqing said that, she didn’t forget to sniffle hypocritically. Her aggrieved look made one’s heartache.
When everyone saw this scene, they were all extremely shocked.
They couldn’t understand how these two children could change their expressions so quickly.
They were indeed bullied, but didn’t they also retaliate?
“These two children’s acting skills are really top-notch.” Ye Liuguang couldn’t help but exclaim.
The smile on Su Qian’s lips deepened as she lowered her eyes and smiled.
On the other side, when the Empress Dowager heard this, her eyes almost spewed fire. She said angrily, “Who is it?! Who dared to insult you? Do you want to die?”
Lan Susu never expected that she would suddenly be thrust into the spotlight. She was so scared that her entire body trembled. She scrambled to the Empress Dowager and knelt, her head pressed tightly to the ground, not daring to raise it. “Empress Dowager, you can’t blame me for this. Besides, it was clearly Su Qian’s two children who beat me up and drugged me, causing me to embarrass myself! Everyone present can help me testify!”
How could the Empress Dowager listen to Lan Susu’s nonsense? She immediately narrowed her eyes fiercely and looked at Lan Susu with a gaze as sharp as a blade, as if she wanted to shoot Lan Susu through. She said angrily, “What do you mean by that? Are you saying that Ye’er and Qingqing framed you?”
Hearing the dissatisfaction in the Empress Dowager’s words, Lan Susu raised her head in panic and shook her head in fear. “No, that’s not it. I’m just being realistic!”
“Enough!” The Empress Dowager was impatient. She looked at Lan Susu with a cold gaze. “Ye’er and Qingqing took action to defend themselves! But your insults toward them constitute a challenge against me! Men, drag this girl away and give her thirty strokes to teach her a lesson!”
Lan Susu was scared silly by the Empress Dowager’s words. She shook her head frantically in panic. “No, don’t! I beg the Empress Dowager to pity me, I beg for your mercy, Empress Dowager!”
Under the terrified gazes of the others, Lan Susu was forcefully dragged away by the Empress Dowager’s guards.
“Wow, Grandmother Empress Dowager is so powerful!” Su Qingqing pulled the Empress Dowager and made her bend over. She then happily pouted and kissed the Empress Dowager on the cheek. “Thank you, Grandmother Empress Dowager, for helping Qingqing.”
The Empress Dowager was overwhelmed by the kiss and was so happy that she couldn’t close her mouth. “Good child, if anyone dares to offend you in the future, come and tell me. I will help you.”
“Thank you, Grandmother.” Su Ye smiled and grabbed the Empress Dowager’s other hand.
Overjoyed by the two children’s coaxing, the Empress Dowager called out to Su Qian with a smile, “Qianqian, stand beside me, and let’s go together. The abbot is still waiting for us in Haotian Temple.”
“Yes.” Su Qian didn’t expect the Empress Dowager to stand on their side without hesitation.
However, since the Empress Dowager was protecting her children, she naturally vowed to take good care of the Empress Dowager..
