Chapter 53: The Man Behind It

It doesn't matter if the tyrant can insult her at will, but her family has already been killed by this tyrant, and now he wants to insult her family, she Su Mengwan will never forgive him!

"Su promised to stop in moderation, how can you contradict the emperor like this!" Concubine Chen gloated with a look of schadenfreude.

"That's it! Su promised me that you are a newcomer to the palace and don't understand the rules, so I will spare you this time! Concubine Chen will hand over Su to you, you have to teach her the rules of this palace, I don't want to see her next time, she will still be like this. The emperor looked at Su Mengwan's eyes that hated him, and his heart couldn't help but hurt fiercely, but isn't this inconvenient for what he wants! Then he looked at Concubine Chen on the side and said, since she didn't want to admit the relationship between them, then he forced her to admit it.

"It's the emperor, the concubines obey orders!" Concubine Chen responded, but at this time, Concubine Chen's heart was very unhappy, why could this Su promise be so valued by the emperor.

"Well, I'm in a good mood today, I want to listen to a little song, why don't you listen to a few songs in the pavilion of this imperial garden with me!" The emperor looked at Su Mengwan and said meaningfully.

"Okay, Your Majesty." The concubines said.

"Let's go!" The emperor walked towards the pavilion with a step, and the concubines also followed closely behind the emperor and walked forward, but the emperor had only taken a few steps before he suddenly stopped, turned to look at Su Mengwan, who was still standing still, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a sneer, "Why don't you leave Su Promise?" Are you waiting for me to invite you over? After hearing the emperor's words, the concubines also looked at Su Mengwan, who was standing still behind them.

At this time, each concubine had their own thoughts in their hearts, some concubines thought that Su Mengwan was trying to capture the old man and deliberately wanted to attract the emperor's attention, some concubines thought that Su Mengwan was digging her own grave, and even some concubines were gloating and preparing to watch the play.

"When I returned to the emperor, I just suddenly felt very unwell, for fear of disturbing the emperor and the concubines, so I didn't participate together, so I retired first." After Su Mengwan finished speaking, she didn't wait for the emperor's answer, turned around and walked to leave.

"What a guts! Did I tell you to go back? Zhou Hai stopped her for me! Seeing Su Mengwan's back as she was about to leave, the emperor immediately said angrily to Gonggong Zhou on the side.

"Yes." Gonggong Zhou, who received the order, immediately sent someone to stop Su Mengwan, who was about to leave.

"Take her to the pavilion." After the emperor finished speaking, he turned around and continued to walk towards the pavilion, and the coldness exuded from his body did not allow anyone to get close to him for half a minute. Su Mengwan, who was forcibly pressed to her seat, had no choice but to give up the struggle at this time and concentrate on listening to the tune.

"Your Majesty, I wonder what happened today that would make you so happy?" Although the music played at this time was cheerful, the coldness exuded by the emperor's body always made it impossible for everyone to listen to the music easily, and at this moment, Concubine Chen's words successfully broke the low pressure, and she really deserved to be the emperor's most favored concubine.

"Hmmm! Because of a marriage. The corners of the emperor's mouth hooked up and sneered.

"Marriage?" Concubine Chen was puzzled.

"Well, the second day of the next month is the day when Gu Qingyang, the eldest son of Prime Minister Gu Cheng, and Zhang Shangshu's youngest daughter get married, and I am the old man of this marriage, can I not be happy with such a god-given relationship?" The corners of the emperor's mouth hooked up a cruel smile, but looking at Su Mengwan, who was pale, at this time, the emperor's heart was not as happy as he imagined, but still a little blocked, could it be that she loved Gu Qingyang so much? Thinking about how the Gu family drove her out of the house for fear of being implicated, has she forgotten all this?

"This is indeed a happy thing, to be able to get the emperor's marriage, it must be a godsend!" Concubine Chen said with a smile.

At this time, Su Mengwan could no longer hear any sounds around her, and her mind was only on the second day of the next lunar month that the tyrant had just said. It turns out that the second day of the next month is the day of your marriage, Brother Qingyang, I don't know if the bride is beautiful, I think she must be very happy to marry you! I suddenly wanted to cry, but I knew I couldn't! The tyrant forced me to hear this from him, not to see me cry and why should I let him succeed!

"Su promised, I just heard the emperor say that you are a lady from a famous family, presumably you must be able to play piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, since you have just angered the emperor, you will play a song to the emperor, even if you apologize to the emperor! The emperor doesn't know if this proposal of the concubine is good? Concubine Chen said gently, outsiders seem to be helping Su Mengwan, it seems that Concubine Chen is so generous and decent, but in fact, Concubine Chen has already seen from what she just now that this Su Mengwan will never be obedient, now she just needs to sit and watch the play.

"Well, Concubine Chen's proposal is good, I got it, Su promised to come over and play a song for me!" The emperor raised his eyebrows and said.

"Back to the emperor, I can't play the piano, I'm afraid I won't be able to play music for the emperor!" Su Mengwan said coldly.

"Bengong heard it right, Su promised, you come from a famous family and can't even play the piano, it seems that your background is not very good!" Song Concubine said sarcastically.

"Concubine Song, I put up with you again and again, don't go too far!" Hearing Concubine Song's insult, Su Mengwan said angrily.

"That's it! My good mood has been disturbed by you, so if you don't listen to this song, it's all gone! The emperor suddenly stood up and said coldly, then flicked his sleeves and walked out of the pavilion.

The emperor naturally knew that Su Mengwan was lying to him, how could the general's daughter not know how to play the piano, but what he was angry about now was not that Su Mengwan deceived him, but that Song Concubine had bullied Su Mengwan just now, and Su Mengwan was bullied and tortured, which was obviously what he wanted to see the most, but when he saw that scene just now, he wanted to kill Song Concubine, and then hugged Su Mengwan tightly into his arms to comfort her, he was afraid that if he stayed here for a second longer, he would not be able to help but fall here.

He must not fall in love with Su Mengwan, and he can't fall in love with the enemy's daughter, even if she is the one he has been looking for for many years! When the concubines saw that the emperor had left, they also got up and left. Before leaving, Concubine Song glared at Su Mengwan viciously before leaving.

"Master, she's awake!" Su Mengwan was in a daze and heard someone talking beside her, and immediately woke up in shock.

I saw that Su Mengwan was tied to a wooden stake at this time, in a secret room that looked like a prison cell, and the person in front of her was actually Zhang Yandao, Su Mengwan immediately recalled that she was kidnapped before, it seems that the person who kidnapped herself was Zhang Yandao, presumably they should have investigated that they were the publisher of the news, so they kidnapped her.

"I'm sorry Miss Su, we invited you here just to ask you a few questions, if Miss Su can cooperate with us, I guarantee that Miss Su can go home safely, and we will never bother Miss Su again in the future!" But if Miss Su is not ready to cooperate with us, then we have to let Miss Su taste some hardships! Zhang Yandao walked up to Su Mengwan and said.

"What's the problem?" Su Mengwan was puzzled.

"We want to know who is behind Miss Su? As long as Miss Su answers truthfully, I guarantee that Miss Su will go home safely. Zhang Yandao said.

"The people behind it?" Su Mengwan asked.

"Yes." Zhang Yandao nodded.

"You tie me up, and how can I see who is standing behind me? And how to tell you! Su Mengwan said with an innocent face, but Zhang Yandao's head was about to smoke when he heard Su Mengwan's words, although he knew that Su Mengwan would definitely not confess to the person behind him so quickly, but he didn't expect that this Su Mengwan would actually use such childish words to reply to him, maybe he wanted to treat him Zhang Yandao as a fool.

"It seems that Miss Su, you won't say it obediently if you don't taste some hardships, Ah Yu!" After Zhang Yandao finished speaking with a gloomy face, he ordered the subordinates beside him.

"Yes." Ah Yu, who received the order, immediately picked up the whip on the side and walked in front of Su Mengwan.

"Wait, I say! I say! Su Mengwan immediately exclaimed when she saw this.

"Say." Zhang Yandao motioned for Ah Yu to step back first, and then said coldly to Su Mengwan.

"I said yes, but can you ask a little more clearly, what do you want to know from me?" Su Mengwan couldn't hold back a tremble and asked.

"Miss Su, I advise you to stop hiding it! It won't do you any better to hide it any longer, and we've already investigated that the publisher of the previous news was you, Miss Su. We can let you go, but Miss Su, you must tell us the person behind your back who instructed you to publish this news. Zhang Yandao said patiently again.

"I didn't have anyone behind me to instruct me, and I posted this news just because I think ya movies are harmful to the people, and I just want the people to stay away from ya movies." Su Mengwan said firmly.

"It seems that Miss Su, you are still not ready to cooperate with us obediently! Ahh Seeing this, Zhang Yandao immediately said.

"Yes." Immediately, Ah Yu stepped forward and whipped at Su Mengwan. When the whip hit Su Mengwan's body, Su Mengwan was almost fainted directly on the spot.

"How about it, Miss Su, has you figured it out? Will you cooperate with us? It didn't take long for Zhang Yandao to stop Ah Yu, and then asked Su Mengwan.

"No one instructed me, so how can I cooperate with you?" Su Mengwan said weakly with sweat on her head.

"Miss Su, I advise you to move quickly, so as not to suffer from some useless flesh and skin. If you have no one behind your back, why is your identity protected as a mere journalist? I'll tell you the truth, Miss Su, even if you don't tell us who the person behind you is now, we have a way to investigate. When the time comes, you have not only failed to protect the people behind you, but also put your own life on the line, so why bother? Wouldn't it be great if you would obediently cooperate with us now, and then go home safely and live your own life? Zhang Yandao said with a trick.
