The Favored Little Peasant Seizes the Heroine's Script!-Chapter 494 - 454: Admit Your Mistake When You’re Wrong_3
Speaking of which, the Eldest Princess actually did Yuan Bao a favor.
If not for the Eldest Princess’s connections, Yuan Bao would not have become Ying Li’s apprentice.
Once the Eldest Princess steps in to mediate with Yuan Bao, Yuan Bao will more or less consider the face of the Eldest Princess, and let the matter go lightly.
Unfortunately, this is not the result Ying Li wants to see.
The words Ying Li spoke with the Eldest Princess were indeed the truth.
Yuan Bao could indeed graduate from apprenticeship, but after all, she has not completed her training yet. And this incident has become a test for Yuan Bao by Ying Li.
Yuan Bao’s actions are related to whether she can complete her apprenticeship.
Therefore, Ying Li does not want the Eldest Princess to get involved.
The Eldest Princess does not know Ying Li’s thoughts, but she knows that Ying Li does not want her to intervene.
To this, the Eldest Princess can only comply with Ying Li’s wishes. After all, Ying Li’s identity is truly extraordinary.
...
The Imperial Palace, Cining Palace.
Emperor Xia was summoned by the Empress Dowager through Nanny Shen.
"Son greets mother!"
Emperor Xia greeted the Empress Dowager with utmost respect and courtesy.
"No need for formalities, Emperor, please sit!"
The Empress Dowager was in a very bad mood after the Eldest Princess pointed out the key to the matter.
She never thought she would have such a day!
As the most noble woman in the current Daxia, although the Empress Dowager did not become conceited, in her heart, she always considered herself a towering figure.
But now, due to a careless move, she has caused a big trouble.
If this trouble cannot be resolved well, she feels she might be reaching the end of her days.
Don’t think that just because she is the Empress Dowager, no one can coerce her.
"Mother, you summoned your son, is there something you need to instruct?"
Emperor Xia could not understand the Empress Dowager’s intentions.
Attacking the Wei Family, a pillar family of Daxia, without consulting him, her own son, what does this mean?
In Emperor Xia’s view, his mother’s action clearly indicates she does not regard him, the Emperor Xia, as important.
Perhaps in the Empress Dowager’s mind, he, Emperor Xia, is actually insignificant.
"Emperor, I, the mourning family, made a mistake!"
Although feeling very frustrated internally, the Empress Dowager was quite aware of how important the words the Eldest Princess spoke to her were.
"Mother, how do you want your son to act?"
Emperor Xia did not inquire about what mistake the Empress Dowager made.
This matter did not need to be questioned at all.
As long as Emperor Xia did not want to know something that happened in the palace, there was nothing he could not find out.
"I, the mourning family, made a mistake, naturally I have to go apologize and admit my mistake."
"But I, the mourning family, do not know whether this apology and acknowledgment will be forgiven!"
"Emperor, do you have any solutions?"
When the Empress Dowager spoke these words, it seemed genuinely heartfelt, yet deep down, she still harbored a sliver of hope that her son, the Emperor, would step forward and take all the responsibility for her.
Emperor Xia easily saw through the Empress Dowager’s intention.
However, Emperor Xia understood very well that this matter was too big for him to handle.
"Mother, how about if I summon the father of my sister-in-law?"
The Emperor could not stand up for the Empress Dowager.
This matter, not to mention that he was unaware before, even if he had known beforehand, he absolutely could not admit it now.
The Empress Dowager’s hopeful heart crumbled instantly upon hearing Emperor Xia’s words.
"Very well then!"
The Empress Dowager was displeased, but she could only endure, "And also call in your brother-in-law, your sister’s temper is such that even if I, the mourning family, go to admit my mistake, she may not forgive me!"
"Mother, don’t worry!"
"My little sister is just angry for now, in a few days, when her anger subsides, everything will return to normal!"
Emperor Xia could only offer a few words to comfort the Empress Dowager, "Besides, what kind of grudge between a mother and daughter cannot be resolved?"
"Let’s hope so!"
The Empress Dowager responded despondently.
"Mother, then I shall take my leave first!"
Emperor Xia bowed to the Empress Dowager and quickly left Cining Palace with his entourage.
At this moment, Wei Dingjiang and Yuan Yindi had already been brought to the Imperial Study Room.
In fact, without the Empress Dowager’s mention, Emperor Xia had already arranged for Wei Dingjiang and Yuan Yindi to be invited to the palace.
No matter how displeased Emperor Xia was with these unseemly actions his own mother had taken, he, as the Empress Dowager’s son, could only do his best to help clean up the mess.
"Please, both of you, be seated!"
Returning to the Imperial Study Room, Emperor Xia saw Wei Dingjiang and Yuan Yindi, who had been waiting there, and his expression was very serious.
"I dare not!"
Confronted with Emperor Xia’s offer to be seated, the attitudes of Wei Dingjiang and Yuan Yindi were the same.
At this moment, Yuan Yindi also knew what had happened.
And upon knowing that his precious daughter had almost been harmed, Yuan Yindi was extremely furious on the spot. It was with much persuading from Wei Dingjiang that he was temporarily calmed down.
