Grand Consort Yu screamed hysterically, “It’s been so long. I know that Your Majesty won’t believe me no matter what I say.”
“But this Luzhu suddenly appeared after disappearing for so long. Isn’t Your Majesty afraid that it’s the princess’s scheme?! Your Majesty, please judge this matter clearly!”
Empress Du really couldn’t stand it anymore. “Grand Consort Yu, are you spouting nonsense to this extent?”
What schemes could there be in this?!
Even if this was an act by the young princess, it was just to wash away the injustice that the former empress had suffered back then.
Gu Nuo’er stood on the marble stage, her round and fair face filled with calmness.
A pair of black and watery grape eyes looked at Grand Consort Yu coldly.
The child observed her unreasonable attitude and only found it funny.
Her voice was soft and she placed her hands on her hips, looking very imposing.
“It’s indeed my scheme. What’s the problem with that? Back then, you framed my imperial grandmother. Now, I’m just trying to seek justice for her.”
“The justice that belongs to my imperial grandmother came decades later. And you’ve been secretly living a comfortable and happy life for so long.”
“Grand Consort Yu, you’ve already earned enough. The truth is out today. I specially brought Luzhu here to let everyone know what you’ve done!”
Gu Nuo’er reached out her small hand and pointed at Grand Consort Yu with a stern aura.
“Back then, it was you! You were the one who schemed to harm my father and frame my imperial grandmother! You were the one who separated the mother and son!”
The child raised her watery eyes, which were filled with an unquestionable glow.
Grand Consort Yu was in adrift for a moment.
She seemed to have seen the former empress, Madam Chi, standing behind Gu Nuo’er and watching her granddaughter teach the person who had caused her death back then a lesson.
Madam Chi seemed to be wearing the extremely bright red phoenix robe that she had worn when Grand Consort Yu first met her back then.
She was high and mighty. The corners of her eyes, eyebrows, and every move she made were like that of a noblewoman.
At that time, Grand Consort Yu only felt ashamed of her inferiority. Standing beside Empress Chi, she was like a small firefly, while the other party was a bright moon.
Now, Grand Consort Yu was in an adrift again.
Gu Nuo’er didn’t hide anything and looked at Grand Consort Yu. “Moreover, I want to tell you today that you kept saying that my imperial grandmother lost to you.”
“Actually, you’re overestimating yourself. Imperial Grandmother didn’t lose to you, but she lost to Imperial Grandfather for not giving her trust.” The truth that the child had heard from Empress Du.
If a man didn’t only love you, then he wasn’t worth entrusting to.
Love was not about lowering oneself, nor was it about compromising.
Gu Nuo’er’s lively eyes flickered dazzlingly. Her fair and red face was filled with determination.
She smiled as if there was some mockery in it.
“But you didn’t win either. In the end, didn’t Imperial Grandpa also not trust you? Otherwise, why would he drive you away to the fief?”
“Imperial Grandfather’s will after his death made it clear that your son can’t succeed the throne. I’m sure you know why he made such a decision, right?”
Grand Consort Yu had long been trembling from the stimulation and was on the verge of breaking down.
At this point, she finally understood that she had been completely tricked by this seven-year-old girl!
Not only did Gu Nuo’er expose what she had done in public, but she also let her have a taste of being betrayed by her family!
Gu Rao’s criticism of Grand Consort Yu was just like how Grand Consort Yu had
instructed the Chi clan’s trusted palace maid to betray the former empress back
then!
This child let Grand Consort Yu know that the feeling of being abandoned and betrayed by someone close to her was really uncomfortable!
