The Reborn Noble Girl Is Hard To Find

Chapter 87 : Imperial Sword

Han Yan had no doubt that if Fu Yun Xi really used torture, it would make people want to die but not die. Concubine Chen had always been spoiled and could not stand the torture. If she confessed, it would be difficult for the Empress Dowager to escape. Fu Yun Xi's step-by-step pressure made the Empress Dowager's face change.

"Yun Xi, I'm telling you not to interfere in this matter," her tone was already a little firm, making it clear that she would not give Fu Yun Xi the chance to catch her.

The Emperor saw the aura between the two and felt a little embarrassed for a moment. One was his blood brother, and the other was the Empress Dowager who had raised him. He didn't want to hurt either of them. After calming down, he said, "Yun Xi, I promise you that I will give you a break. I was not careful in what I did today, so I apologize to you."

Han Yan nestled in Fu Yun Xi's arms. Others couldn't see her expression clearly. She lowered her head and thought to herself, the Emperor was so high-ranking, but he apologized to Fu Yun Xi so carefully. It seemed that the rumors outside were true, and the Emperor loved Fu Yun Xi. But the relationship between the Empress Dowager and Fu Yun Xi was very subtle, which was strange.

Fu Yun Xi said calmly: "I dare not, but as a man, I cannot even protect my wife. I cannot be a role model for the world. Please, Your Majesty, remove my official position. I cannot face the world."

Han Yan couldn't help but want to laugh when he pushed back the Emperor's words in such a bland way. She secretly cheered for Fu Yun Xi in her heart. This was a blatant rejection of the Emperor's apology. The Emperor's eyes fell on Han Yan. Han Yan pretended to be panicked and buried her head in Fu Yun Xi's arms. It was really funny. Did the Emperor think that she would come out to smooth things over? She is afraid the Emperor underestimated her, Zhuang Han Yan. If he dared to pluck her feathers, he should be prepared to have his eyes pecked out.

The Emperor would not let Fu Yun Xi resign, but he was in such a dilemma that he did not know what to do. He was somewhat angry at the Empress Dowager's recklessness today, and he hated Han Yan for not understanding his intentions. The incident was caused by her, and the Emperor did not know what to say to smooth things over. He sighed and said, "Tell me, how can I make you calm down?"

Fu Yun Xi said without blinking: "Your Majesty, please give her, my humble wife, the Imperial Sword. Seeing this sword is like seeing Your Majesty. No one dares to do anything to her."

Han Yan was stunned. She never expected that Fu Yun Xi would make such a request. A warm feeling suddenly surged in her heart. Indeed, if she had the Imperial Sword, even if the Empress Dowager wanted to tear her face off, she would have to think twice. At least the Empress Dowager would not dare to embarrass her in front of everyone.

However, since ancient times, the Imperial Sword has been given to meritorious officials or people with great contributions, representing supreme glory. Now that she has done nothing and her status is low, how can she get such a good thing for no reason? For a moment, she hesitated.

"How outrageous!" Before Han Yan could figure out what to do in the current situation, she heard the Empress Dowager shouting, "Yun Xi, don't lose your manners. Princess Xuan Qing has no achievements in managing the world, how could she get the Imperial Sword! Do you think the dignity of the royal family is a joke?" After that, she glared at Han Yan viciously.

Han Yan did not avoid or give way, with a barely perceptible smile on her lips. She heard Fu Yun Xi's voice above her head say, "I dare not. If the Emperor does not agree, I have no choice. It's just that it's too dangerous outside, so I have no choice but to resign and stay at home to protect my princess." He glanced at the Empress Dowager calmly and said, "The princess is young and it's easy for her to get into accidents. Just like today, she almost got into trouble in front of the Emperor and the Queen Mother."
