Chapter 102 Complaint to the Emperor

"No matter what the reason is, as long as the dowry can be in my hands, it's fine. As long as it doesn't get Su Mixue cheap, I'm willing to cooperate." Su Wan knew in her heart that the prince and the queen were alienated, and the people favored by the prince of the East Palace would definitely not be the queen's people. It would be a bit troublesome to get the dowry out quietly.

Mobilizing a large army to take it back would be a slap in the face of the royal family. The queen is willing to help, but the emperor will definitely not be happy. It might alarm the regent, which would be bad.

With the imperial power in power, no matter how capable and resourceful she is, she is not enough.

Unless she is so powerful that even the imperial power can hardly shake her.

Su Wan's eyes lit up, and she immediately had an idea: "You can give me the dowry as a reward!"

The queen's eyes moved slightly, and she pointed her finger at her forehead: "You, your idea is clever, and the reward must have a reason. I should not give you the dowry of the Crown Princess." She said meaningfully: "The Crown Princess is in the capital, and you can do something beneficial to her. I can help you."

Su Wan rubbed her forehead and fell into deep thought. The queen meant that Su Mixue was in the capital, and she could help Su Mixue and force Su Mixue to take out the dowry.

There is one thing at the moment, that is, to cure Su Jihong and take back the dowry.

"In a few days, Master Huiren will return to Beijing. He has a high level of medical skills. You used to be his apprentice. You can ask him to treat Su Jihong, and I will ask the Crown Prince to take out the dowry." The queen pointed out a clear way for Su Wan.

Su Wan frowned. The Queen pointed out Master Huiren at this time. Someone must have had this idea, so she was asked to get there first.

"You should know that he has no father-daughter relationship with me. He is safe and sound, and he is the support of Qinglan and her daughter. He might kill me for them." Su Wan was unwilling to save an enemy. The matter of the imperial edict was not a secret: "You should know that when my mother got married, my grandfather gave her the imperial edict as a dowry. Now that she has passed away, the thing is mine. How can I be willing to let it fall into Su Mixue's hands?"

The Queen's face suddenly changed.

Su Wan said solemnly: "The prince is ambitious. For power, he gave up his fiancée and separated from you. This imperial edict fell into his hands, and that position is basically his."

The Queen's offspring died young, and she adopted other princes to raise them under her knees in order to consolidate power. She represents not only herself, but also her natal family behind her.

When the queen was pregnant, the prince clung to the regent. Later, the queen's child died, and the prince could not control the regent, and was even controlled by the regent. How could such an ambitious person like him endure being a puppet emperor? So when the queen lost her child, he turned back and wanted to repair his relationship with the queen to compete with the regent.

After all, the queen has the support of the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion, and she is Zhao Wei's cousin.

The queen's mother and Zhao Wei's mother are sisters from the same mother.

But how can he hide his actions from the queen? The queen has long been chilled, and now she is just maintaining the superficial mother-son relationship.

The prince is walking on thin ice, so he urgently wants the imperial edict to be with him. Once he gets this thing, he will have an extra amulet. If he starts to calculate the military power, the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion will be the first to bear the brunt.

The queen must know this truth, so her expression becomes solemn. She pondered for a moment and whispered, "Don't worry, I will get the things back for you."

Su Wan leaned her head on the queen's shoulder and said coquettishly, "My queen, you are so good to me."

The queen lowered her eyes and looked at the head leaning on her shoulder. She looked a little dazed and her thoughts gradually drifted away. Her child loved lying on her legs and shoulders and pestering her to ask for things. After getting her consent, he would smile happily and say sweetly, "Mother, you are so good."

When the prince was raised by her, he was already sensible. He was very cautious at a young age, for fear of making mistakes and being disliked by her. He did his best in everything and never had such intimate interactions with her.

When Su Wan was a child, although he was close to her, he would not act like a spoiled child like this.

The queen was so soft-hearted that she touched her head with her hand and said gently, "Does the Gu family treat you well?"

"They treat me very well." Su Wan boldly hugged the queen's arm and talked about the Gu family in a nagging manner. Finally, she concluded, "They are like my real family."

"Simplicity is a blessing." The queen liked Su Wan's character of knowing good from bad and not being vain: "If there is a chance in the future, you can bring him to me to see."

"Okay." Su Wan agreed.

The queen smiled, her eyes were kind, "Stay and accompany me for lunch before going back."

"I want to eat donkey rolls. This snack in the queen's palace makes me miss it." Su Wan's words made the queen happy, and she asked Aunt Fang to make donkey rolls.

Su Wan accompanied the queen to finish lunch and left the palace to return home.

The carriage stopped at the gate of Dingyuan Marquis's Mansion, and Su Wan got off the carriage.

Suddenly, a carriage drove over and also stopped at the gate of the Marquis's Mansion. Su Wan stopped and saw a man in his early thirties getting off the carriage.

Su Wan walked into the mansion with a strange face that she didn't recognize.

"Miss Su." Luo Cheng called Su Wan, stepped up the steps, handed her the two wooden boxes in his hand, and said in a friendly manner: "I, Luo Cheng, am here to give you a birthday gift on the order of the Regent."

Su Wan was stunned.

The Regent gave her a birthday gift?

Suddenly, a series of memories came flooding out.

The original owner was born on the sixth day of the seventh lunar month. Every year, the regent would prepare a gift, but for some reason, the original owner would leave it in the warehouse and never open it.

Su Wan tried to recall, but her memory of this part was blank.

This year, the regent sent the gift a few days earlier, which was particularly abrupt. In previous years, the regent just sent a servant to deliver it and left, without attracting anyone's attention.

Luo Cheng personally delivered it this time. Is he trying to push her to the forefront?

She put away her thoughts, took the wooden box, and imitated the original owner's tone: "Thank the regent for me."

Luo Cheng didn't mind her cold attitude at all, "I'll take my leave first."

Su Wan watched Luo Cheng get on the carriage and leave, and went back to her room. Sitting in the chair, she put the wooden box on the small table, opened a box, and put a thin deed inside. She looked carefully and couldn't help but raise her eyebrows. It turned out to be two shops in the capital.

She opened another box, which contained the deed of a house in the capital.

"..."

Su Wan was surprised. It was obvious that he had put a lot of thought into sending these gifts.

The regent's attitude towards her was a bit like the way he treated the younger generation in his family.

But if that was the case, why did the regent help Su Mixue snatch the original owner's marriage?

She suddenly had a bold idea and wanted to test the regent's attitude towards her.

Whether it was an enemy or a friend, we would know it after a try.

"Xiao Tao, find a piece of red paper!"

"Yes!" Xiao Tao immediately turned out a piece of red paper.

Su Wan forged a dowry list and dried the pen and ink. She made the dowry list look old and it looked a bit old.

She handed it to Xiao Tao and said with a smile: "Send it to Qing Lan and ask her to spit out the dowry, otherwise I will go to the emperor to file a complaint."

If the regent helped Su Mixue, she and Qing Lan snatched the dowry to confuse the audience and make the regent take it lightly, so that the queen could do it behind her back.
