Chapter 3227 - 3228: Come With the Patriarch
Upon hearing this, the head of the Zui Family took a deep breath.
How could he not want to rescue Zui Yichun right now? But no matter how much he wanted it, it wouldn’t help.
The Emperor himself issued the decree to confine Zui Yichun to Quan Palace—this was to serve as a warning to all ministers, showing them that if anyone suggested giving him concubines again, the fate of those women would be the same.
Therefore, going to the palace to plead with the Emperor now would be useless.
"Phew!"
He exhaled heavily.
"This head of the family will personally see the Empress. I refuse to believe she can watch her own sister suffer in the cold palace and do nothing to save her!"
The only way now is to appeal to Zui Yiming. She is deeply favored by the Emperor; if she speaks a few words, perhaps the Emperor might release Chun’er for her sake.
As for how Chun’er will enter the palace later, these things can be planned slowly.
"Appeal to Zui Yiming?"
Upon hearing the word ’Empress’, Madam Zui’s entire face twisted.
In the end, they still have to go to Zui Yiming? She could hardly believe that Zui Yiming had nothing to do with Chun’er being sent to Quan Palace.
Surely, Zui Yiming must have whispered ill words about Chun’er to the Emperor? Otherwise, no matter what, the Emperor wouldn’t have sent Chun’er to Quan Palace without even meeting her.
"Head of the family, what use is it to appeal to Zui Yiming? She won’t help at all."
"That’s true for you!"
The head of the Zui Family glanced coldly at Madam Zui.
Fortunately, he hadn’t forced Zui Yiming to bring Chun’er into the palace before. When he sees Zui Yiming, he can claim it’s all Madam Zui’s idea, and he was unaware.
Then, after pleading a bit, even if Zui Yiming doesn’t want to, she has to consider his reputation and persuade the Emperor to release Chun’er.
"As her father, my words still carry weight."
"Well..."
Madam Zui hesitated for a moment; although she felt it was useless, it was still worth trying.
"Why aren’t you preparing now? I’m going to the palace, and you’re coming with me!" the head of the Zui Family snapped at her as she hesitated.
"Oh."
Madam Zui was rendered speechless.
She had to enter the palace? But with her current disheveled appearance, how could she go to the palace?
She could tidy up everything else, but the marks from the two slaps given by the head earlier wouldn’t fade so quickly.
Entering the palace like this would only embarrass herself in front of Zui Yiming.
"Family head, could I possibly not go?" she asked softly.
"What did you say?!"
The head of the Zui Family glared at her.
"If you don’t go, who will apologize to Zui Yiming, me?"
Bringing Madam Zui was part of his plan; he would place all blame on her and have her apologize.
As the head of the Zui Family, he couldn’t possibly stoop to apologize to Zui Yiming.
"No, no, family head, I didn’t mean that," Madam Zui hurriedly shook her head.
She didn’t want to face Zui Yiming now, but what could she do? Suddenly, she thought of Yin Baiqing.
"I mean, if you enter the palace now, you may not be able to meet Zui Yiming."
"Why?"
The head of the Zui Family frowned and asked.
Could Zui Yiming actually keep him outside the palace?
