After a tragic death and rebirth, I became the regent's favorite

"Your Majesty is right. Without you, I would not be where I am today. But this is not a reason for you to control me."

Xiao Qi's eyes were filled with hurt. The image of Queen Su Mojie in his mind had long been shattered, which made him feel at a loss.

Queen Su Mojie was not much better off. The son whom she once thought she could control had now changed and even humiliated her in front of so many people. For her, this was a shame.

Seeing Queen Su Mojie's look, Xiao Xuan winked at Shen Moyu with relief and smiled playfully. Shen Moyu felt helpless but was more indulgent towards Xiao Xuan.

"Mother, it looks like you and the prince still have something to say, so we won't disturb you for now."

Xiao Xuan was about to run away when she realized she had achieved her goal, but the Queen, Su Mojie, was not willing to let her go. "Xuan'er, since you are here, please chat with me for a while."

"No, I see that my brother the Crown Prince is a little agitated. In order not to disturb you here, I and Madam Mo Youmo will return to Ziyun Palace first."

Xiao Xuan rejected Queen Su Mojie's proposal without hesitation. She was not stupid. How could she continue to stay when she knew why Queen Su Mojie wanted her to stay?

Seeing that Queen Su Mojie had a gloomy face and didn't say anything, Xiao Xuan didn't care whether she agreed or not, and said directly, "Mother, I will take my leave."

"My wife, please retire."

"Your Majesty, please retire."

Since Xiao Xuan is taking the lead, Mo Wushuang and Shen Moyu naturally cannot stay for long.

As soon as Xiao Xuan and the others left, Empress Su Mojie walked down from the chaise longue and slapped him in the face, "Rebellious son, I have high hopes for you, and this is how you treat me? You really disappoint me."

Xiao Qi covered his face after being slapped, not knowing where he had gone wrong. "Mother, I am only telling the truth. Why did you hate my seventh brother so much before, but now you protect him everywhere? I really don't understand."

"Because no matter what, your seventh brother is my biological son. Would I ignore my own son just because of an outsider?"

Queen Su Mojie felt a sense of frustration when looking at him at this moment. She wished she could summon her father, Su Boyan, Marquis of Wuyang, into the palace and find a way to depose this son.

Crown Prince Xiao Qi naturally understood that if his mother had not been angry to a certain extent, she would never have been so excited. However, his position as crown prince was given to him by his mother, and he could do nothing about it.

"I know I have spoken out of turn. I will return to the East Palace and reflect on my actions. I hope your Majesty will calm down."

Crown Prince Xiao Qi was trembling with fear, staring at his own mother without daring to say anything. The latter just stared at him and sneered, not understanding why she had given birth to such a useless son.

"My lady..."

After Crown Prince Xiao Qi left, Feicui took a step forward and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Queen Su Mojie, "Feicui, do you think I have been too indulgent to the Crown Prince? That's why he has become like this, lawless and not even taking me seriously?"

"Your Highness, you worry too much. His Royal Highness just hasn't figured it out for the moment. He will be fine after a few days."

Feicui could only carefully comfort Queen Su Mojie, but there was nothing more to say because the more she said, the more mistakes she would make.

Queen Su Mojie fell into deep thought and did not respond to Feicui's words, but she did not want her son to lose control. "Feicui, keep a close eye on the latest news from the East Palace."

"Yes, I know what to do."

Feicui nodded in response, but seeing that Su Mojie looked listless and listless, she knew that this was not a solution.

"My lady, how about I arrange for a troupe to come in tomorrow and perform for you?"

Feicui really tried her best to make Queen Su Mojie happy, but it was a pity that the Queen was not happy at that time.

"No need."

Queen Su Mojie shook her head, "I don't have that idea."

"How about I accompany you out of the palace? You're holding yourself back like this, be careful not to hurt yourself. Others may not feel sorry for you, but you should know how to feel sorry for yourself."

Feicui's relationship with Queen Su Mojie is indeed a sincere one between master and servant. After all, she has gained a lot of benefits from the Queen over the years.

The Queen cannot fall, this is what Feicui told herself. Once the Queen falls, the consequences will be disastrous.

So she saw Xiao Xuan's provocation just now and felt anxious, but she also knew why Queen Su Mojie did not fight back, because she could not find a reason to fight back.

Besides, everyone in the imperial city knew that the fourth princess Xiao Xuan was the most beloved daughter of Emperor Ming Zhen. Just based on this fact, Empress Su Mojie was far behind.

"No need. I don't want to go anywhere. I just don't understand. I have two sons and I try my best to make them successful, but why do things often go against my wishes? The Crown Prince is like this, and the Seventh Son is also like this. Feicui, do you think I am a failure?"

Queen Su Mojie began to doubt herself for the first time. It was true. For so many years, she always felt that her two sons were under her control.

It was not until today that she realized that she was wrong, extremely wrong. This panic and insecurity made her feel disappointed.

Feicui knew the reason very well, but she didn't dare to say it out loud. She gently comforted Queen Su Mojie, "Now that you are here, the prince's position in the court is unshakable. What are you worried about? Even if it's the Fourth Princess or Concubine Ruan, how long can they jump around?"

In fact, Feicui never took the Fourth Princess Xiao Xuan or Concubine Ruan seriously. For her, it was enough to hold on to the big tree of the Queen.

Because when the new emperor ascends the throne in the future, Queen Su Mojie will be the well-deserved empress dowager. By then, the imperial concubine and the fourth princess will be nothing but passing clouds and will not be important at all.

Queen Su Mojie knew what Feicui meant, but there was an inexplicable panic hanging over her head.

It seemed that everything became different after Shen Moyu appeared, although she didn't know yet what the reason was for this change.

"Jadeite, there were rumors about the Shen family's daughter before, how much do you know?"

Queen Su Mojie suddenly felt a little regretful. She regretted that she should not have listened to her father and summoned Shen Moyu into the palace to take care of him.

This obviously caused her a huge trouble, but she forgot that her father Su Boyan had actually reminded her.

It’s just that Queen Su Mojie herself thinks that Shen Moyu is not a concern and doesn’t believe it.

"Empress, most of the rumors out there are unbelievable. Why are you worrying about it?"

Feicui also knew something about Shen Moyu, but she was unwilling to tell Queen Su Mojie. The more she said, the more she would think about it.
