Chapter 2219: Chapter 2127: So Hard to Please (4)

In fact, he had already guessed it.

The Empress Mother gave him a glance, "I heard you went on a secret tour this time and brought back a woman."

"Yes."

"She caused a disturbance in the Imperial Garden today, injured the Imperial Guards, and killed more than a dozen soldiers of the Imperial Army?"

"It was under my orders that they were killed."

The Empress Mother remained silent, "..."

Is the word fool written on my face?

She waved her hand, "Enough, enough, I don’t wish to pursue these matters, but why did you depose Consort Lan?"

"She laid hands on my woman!" Lu Hualiang’s expression instantly turned grim.

Clearly, there was no room for negotiation on this issue.

The Empress Mother spoke earnestly, "My son, Consort Lan is the daughter of the Great General, and now with frequent battles at the border, we need the Great General to defend the country.

Moreover, the Imperial Court is in turmoil, and the Prime Minister and Prince Liang have already formed a secret alliance. If you act like this, aren’t you pushing the Great General towards their side?

Just for an insignificant woman, disregarding the state’s affairs..."

Lu Hualiang directly interrupted her, "Mother, how do you know the Great General hasn’t allied with Prince Liang?"

The Empress Mother was shocked, "What did you say?"

"Mother, the Imperial Harem should not interfere with politics, do not meddle in court affairs, and Xia Weibao is not an insignificant woman, she is my future Empress."

The Empress Mother was so stunned she overturned the teacup beside her, "You want to make that Jianghu woman your Empress?! Are you mad!"

"I am very clear-headed." Clear-headed like never before.

Since confirming his feelings for her, the idea of making her Empress has never changed.

"She is only a Jianghu woman with no background, of no use to you whatsoever!"

"I like her for who she is, not for her status."

Does Xia Weibao truly lack status?

If she hadn’t returned to the palace with him, she would already be the master of the entire martial world!

"Impossible! This is too absurd! With troubles both internal and external, with Prince Liang and others lurking around, the choice of Empress must be a woman who matches you well. I believe Noble Consort Qi is quite suitable.

She is gentle and dignified, and the daughter of the Prime Minister. If she is made Empress, the Prime Minister will surely switch allegiance, which would be a great support to you!"

"I do not need to rely on women to consolidate my empire."

When he had established the Great Xia Empire himself, how could he pay attention to those clowns?

The Empress Mother was so angry her chest heaved, "What has that woman done to enchant you? If you truly like her, you can make her a concubine, there’s no need to make her Empress."

"She is the wife I have chosen, a concubine is concubine." Seeing the Empress Mother was about to object, Lu Hualiang raised his hand to stop her, "Mother, when you chose concubines I did not interfere, now I choose my Empress, you should also not interfere.

Moreover, keep your concubines in check, do not let them provoke my woman again, or next time it won’t be as simple as being sent to the Cold Palace.

I will issue a decree forbidding your concubines from stepping into the Imperial Garden ever again."

The Empress Mother, "..."

What does it mean she chose concubines, what does it mean her concubines, she picked them for him!

"Bewitching the ruler, bewitching the ruler!"

Lu Hualiang’s face turned cold, obviously displeased, "It was I who coaxed her into the palace, it was I who decided to make her Empress, mother should blame me, not her.

She is merely my wife, not needing to be an Empress Mother of the nation, I don’t intend to make her learn palace protocols, if mother fears she might make a mistake, then just do not see this daughter-in-law."

After speaking, he added, "In this life, she will be my only woman."

The Empress Mother, "..."

She couldn’t say anything, can she choose not to see her? What about grandchildren?
