Chapter 155: How about if my position as lord remains unchanged?
"Your Majesty." Su Yueyao looked at the Queen in shock, only to see a smile on the Queen's face, which made her feel a little dumbfounded.
For the first time, she felt a deep sense of powerlessness towards the imperial power, and nothing she did could work.
"After the evaluation at the Academy of Literature, I originally intended to grant you a marriage. I feel that the bastard of the Yang family is not suitable for the position of your master." The Queen said directly.
"Your Majesty." Su Yueyao took a deep breath and continued.
"Your Majesty, if I can pass the other seven evaluations with my own efforts and reach the middle level in all of them, how about my position as Lord remain unchanged?"
When the Queen heard Su Yueyao's words, the smile on her face paused.
"Do you really like your master so much? Is this Young Master Yang so good that he allows you to do this?"
"Yes your majesty, he deserves it."
"Su Yueyao, do you know how difficult it is to be selected in the Literary Hall? Even your master, the number one on the Fengdu Talent List, has never been selected. Every year, no more than thirty people can be selected through their own efforts."
"Your Majesty, I will try my best. Now I only have this one chance. Apart from this, as long as Your Majesty issues an order, I am afraid I will have no chance to resist. I don't want to let him down. If I really fail, I will be doing him justice. At least I have tried my best." Su Yueyao said.
"Su Yueyao, you make me look forward to it even more. So I promise you that if you can pass all the requirements, I will not change your position as lord. But you may have to accept the imperial decree for other marriages." The queen said with a smile.
"Your Majesty, which young man do you want to marry me to? Can you tell me in advance so that I can be mentally prepared?" Su Yueyao said in a low voice.
"Want to know? You'll know after the evaluation at the Literary Museum."
"Step back!" The Queen said, and then signaled Fu'an to lead Su Yueyao to step back.
"Your Majesty." When Su Yueyao wanted to say something else, she was stopped by Fuan.
"Miss Su, please."
Su Yueyao sighed and left somewhat collapsed. She felt as if she had no control over anything. In front of His Majesty, she was like an ant that could be crushed to death at any time.
In the era of imperial power, even though the empress was deeply restricted by the aristocratic families, she still had the power of life and death, and it was not something a commoner like her could resist.
Perhaps it was a mistake for her to catch the Queen's eye with her paintings from the very beginning. To His Majesty, it was already a good thing that she could cause trouble for those noble families. Whether she was dead or alive afterwards was not that important.
If you want to be an ordinary woman who enjoys life in the backyard, you shouldn't have so many skills, unique painting skills, good poetry, and outstanding behavior.
What she did when she entered Fengdu must have caught His Majesty's attention. She jumped in on her own initiative, so would His Majesty let her out so easily?
Su Yueyao came out of the imperial study, looked up at the sky, and sighed. Since she couldn't escape, she might as well fight.
"Miss Su will lead you out of the palace. His Majesty is afraid that you might be tired, so he has allowed you to ride in a sedan chair to the palace gate." Fu Xin said respectfully.
Su Yueyao's heart trembled when she heard this. After she left the palace today, she was afraid that everyone in Fengdu would know that she and His Majesty were on the same side. His Majesty even dealt with Yang Cejun for her...
Just like that, Su Yueyao got on the sedan chair, but her expression was not relaxed at all, because she was a little flustered. Apart from painting, if she wanted to pass the evaluation of the Literary Museum, she had to please others, otherwise she really had no chance at all.
His Majesty's meaning is very clear. She will grant the marriage. If it is a marriage granted, it will be fine if the family is from a noble family of His Majesty's faction. But if it is from another faction, her backyard will be doomed.
At this time, Qianxun's position as lord was overthrown, and she would no longer feel at ease at home.
Your Majesty made a great move on this one!
The sedan chair went all the way to the palace gate. After Su Yueyao got off, she took out a purse and handed it to Fu Xin, saying, "Thank you, Eunuch Fu Xin, for leading the way today. This is a small token of my appreciation."
Fu Xin took it with a smile and said, "Miss Su, you are too polite. I will go back and report."
Su Yueyao looked at Fu Xin's back, standing quietly at the palace gate, looking at the high walls inside, which were tall and majestic, trapping so many people inside. The emperor in the imperial society held the power of life and death, and when the emperor was angry, millions of corpses would be buried and blood would flow for thousands of miles. The scene suddenly became concrete.
"What is Miss Su looking at?"
Su Yueyao heard the voice and turned to look at Cui Yiyang who was wearing the armor of the imperial guards.
"I didn't see anything. Is Deputy Commander Cui on patrol?"
"Yes, I noticed that Miss Su didn't look very well. Did something happen?" Cui Yiyang asked with a frown as he looked at Su Yueyao who looked pale.
But his tone was too blunt and oppressive, so Su Yueyao didn't feel that he cared about her at all.
"It's okay. I just feel that the palace is very majestic and tall. I'm a little shocked. I want to go back. I'll take my leave first." Su Yueyao really didn't want to talk under this oppressive gaze, so she walked away.
When Xia Ji saw Su Yueyao leaving the palace, he asked the coachman to drive the carriage to her.
"My Lady." Xia Ji bowed.
"Let's go back!" Su Yueyao held Xia Ji's hand and got on the carriage.
Cui Yiyang watched Su Yueyao get on the carriage, then turned and entered the palace.
After getting on the carriage, Su Yueyao closed her eyes and leaned back on the cushion, feeling very depressed.
Xia Ji also obviously felt something was wrong. He knelt respectfully beside her, quietly poured her a cup of tea and said, "Would you like some water, lady?"
Su Yueyao opened her eyes, took the tea, drank a sip and said, "How long have I been in the palace?"
"Replying to Lady Jun, it has been more than two hours."
"Have you been waiting at the palace gate?"
"Yes, my lady. We don't know when you will come out, so we are waiting at the palace gate. When you come out, you can get on the carriage as soon as possible."
"Thank you for your hard work." Su Yueyao said with a faint smile.
"It's not hard, it's what slaves should do."
