章節 882: 358: This is a stroke of luck that fell from the sky

The Emperor strode to the Empress's side and sat down, then beckoned everyone to be seated before he turned to Su Xinyi with the same smile on his face and asked, "Oh, what would the Crown Princess like to say?"

With an expressionless face, Su Xinyi said, "Father, may I take Prince Rong out for a short while first?"

The Emperor: ...

Prince Rong: ...

The crowd: ...

Baring his teeth, Prince Rong looked at Su Xinyi, Fine, you're ruthless. He hadn't expected her to be so bold in front of Their Majesty, daring to utter such words?

Prince Rong wasn't the only one taken aback by Su Xinyi's audacity; aside from the Crown Prince, everyone was surprised, casting various glances at her all at once.

Yet Su Xinyi seemed completely oblivious, her gaze still fixed on His Majesty.

The Empress felt a lump in her throat. This was indeed her wonderful daughter-in-law, stabbing her in such a way that she almost choked.
