Quick time travel villain god is a bit skinny

Chapter 889

The old mother took the opportunity to sow discord and secretly slander Ling Xiao.

The Empress Dowager seemed a little sullen, so she ordered the maidservant who was serving her to arrest Ling Xiao and send her to her Compassion Palace, where she wanted to confront Ling Xiao face to face.

A few strong maids of honor were about to find out the door when the emperor hurried over. Seeing the menacing appearance of the court ladies, he immediately signaled the eunuch Su Mo to ask the reason.

Su Mo simply asked a few words and told Zhao Ji the truth.

"Your Majesty! I heard that Miss Liang angered the Empress Dowager today. The Empress Dowager sent someone to arrest her and bring her to the Palace of Compassion and Ning to reprimand the rules, otherwise it would be inappropriate!"

When Zhao Ji heard this, he became a little anxious and hurried to the main hall.

He bowed to the queen mother, and asked impatiently: "Mother queen! Why did you call Ling Xiao to the palace?"

The Empress Dowager frowned slightly, with a slightly displeased look on her face: "Why? Why can't the Ai family see who your favorite woman is?"

During this period of time, Zhao Ji has been staying in the Liang Mansion, and has not come to the harem to favor these concubines for a long time. Han Xuemei has already told the Queen Mother without any trace, and called several concubines together to jointly sue the Queen Mother.

The queen mother is also very considerate to Han Xuemei and other concubines. After all, Zhao Ji married them for the sake of the queen mother and the emperor.

Just obey the emperor's order, and spread the branches and leaves for the royal family!

But Zhao Ji was poisoned in his body, and the imperial doctors in the imperial hospital were helpless, which caused Zhao Ji to not favor these concubines in the harem for a long time, so so far, the harem has no heirs!

The queen mother is naturally very anxious.

Zhao Ji was her most beloved son. Back then, the Supreme Emperor held him in high esteem and was moved by his talent and wit. When he was a teenager, he overcame objections and made him the crown prince. He supported and cared for him along the way, and successfully inherited the throne.

The Supreme Emperor now lives in the palace on the outskirts of Beijing, where he spends his twilight years. Sometimes the Empress Dowager returns to the palace, always worrying about Zhao Ji's heirs.

Zhao Ji organized his words and smiled politely: "Queen Mother! Even if you want to see Ling Xiao's demeanor, there is no need to send an old lady to teach her etiquette and rules, right? I don't want to leave Ling Xiao's entry into the palace to others Do it, and I will arrange it myself."

The Empress Dowager immediately raised her eyebrows, and a look of distress appeared on her wrinkled face: "My lord, how can you be so careless? When Ling Xiao enters the palace, she is a concubine in the harem. Doesn't the Ai family even have the qualifications to teach her? "

Zhao Ji retorted eloquently: "Mother! Ling Xiao is different from other concubines in the harem in the eyes of my sons and ministers. Therefore, I plan to handle her affairs myself. There is no need for others to interfere! Why can't the mother consider it for me? Can I live happily and carefree with my beloved woman without being disturbed by the outside world?"

When the queen mother heard this, she was very angry immediately, and the old nun hurriedly comforted her back and comforted her in a low voice.

"Emperor! Are you for Liang Lingxiao, you don't even want your mother-in-law?"

Zhao Ji looked serious, and bowed: "Mother's queen will always be mother's queen, but Ling Xiao only has one, I can't lose her!"

Zhao Ji and the queen mother broke up unhappy.

The queen mother was so angry that she couldn't eat for several days, and she didn't go back to the palace on the outskirts of Beijing to take care of her life. Instead, she lived in the palace of compassion and peace, and called Han Xuemei over to help her out.

Han Xuemei has long sleeves and is good at dancing. She has always been the main messenger in the harem and has the right to speak.

After hearing the empress dowager's complaint, Han Xuemei hated and annoyed Ling Xiao in her heart.

What I hate is that she actually wins the emperor's heart away, drags the emperor into her camp, and even goes against the queen mother and disobeys the queen mother's orders.

The annoyance is that Ling Xiao has a hard temper, like a stubborn rock, and will not obey others easily. If she enters the palace and becomes Zhao Ji's concubine in the future, she may not be obedient and submit to others.

Han Xuemei wants to keep her status as a noble concubine, but also to attract the emperor's favor and win the emperor's heart. She must unite with the queen mother to deal with this woman who has occupied the emperor's mind before she makes a move.

The Queen Mother gave Concubine Han Gui a seat and invited her to drink a cup of tea, her words were full of temptations.

Han Xuemei smiled slyly and said: "Queen Mother, no matter who enters the palace, they will serve the emperor anyway, and the concubines have no control over who the emperor likes."

The queen mother shook her head helplessly: "Xuemei, your father and the Supreme Emperor are old acquaintances. Your father has a long-standing reputation in the court and is full of talents. When he let you enter the palace, he also liked your family's reputation."

Han Xuemei lowered her head slightly, maintaining a reserved and elegant posture.

The queen mother continued: "But the Ai family heard that this Liang Lingxiao is not a woman with strict family education. Her mother, Mrs. Wei, is a well-known vagabond in the capital! She has a bad reputation outside."

There was a hint of sarcasm in Han Xue's eyebrows, and her peony-like gorgeous face was calm: "Queen! No matter what Liang Lingxiao's family background is, anyway, the emperor likes her. This is an indisputable fact. The queen mother is so fussy. The emperor's intention to resist!"

When the queen mother heard it, she immediately recalled it.

Han Xuemei was right, Zhao Ji didn't pay attention to the rules of the harem at all, maybe Ling Xiao was a hundred times more important than the entire harem in his heart!
The queen mother frowned distressedly: "Then, in your opinion?"

Han Xuemei smiled helplessly and said: "Queen Mother, the common saying is good! Take a step back and let the sea and the sky go, why not follow the Emperor's mind and let that Liang Lingxiao enter the palace to serve, and when she comes to the Queen Mother, she will naturally learn the rules of the harem after a long time. "

Han Xue had a needle hidden in her eyebrows, and the queen mother felt more and more righteous when she heard her suggestion.

Think about the emperor everywhere, and share the worries of the royal family in everything.

The Empress Dowager pretended to smile unintentionally and said: "Concubine Han, you have the magnanimity and skill of a mother who loves the world. The Ai family is very optimistic about you, but it's just the emperor's mind. You have to think about it."

Han Xuemei won the first battle and won the favor and appreciation of the Queen Mother, so she has a backer.

Among the people in the harem, the queen mother is definitely an authoritative existence.

On this day, Ling Xiao came to the Baishi Art Gallery to check the books and take a look at the operation of the gallery.

The shopkeeper Qi Wen waited on him attentively, and introduced those important guests to Ling Xiao by the way.

Several masters of the Shangshu Mansion, the eldest son of the Duke's Mansion, the young master of the Hou Ye Mansion, and all kinds of distinguished guests from the rich and powerful families. The museum bought some famous paintings and took them home as a family study.

Liang Dong's paintings are suitable for all ages, men and women alike, but any literati with a little ink in their stomachs can understand his paintings, his poems and calligraphy.

Ling Xiao is very satisfied with the management of Baishi Art Gallery.

Not to mention making money every day, at least you can get a very generous return every month, which can be regarded as a well-run business.

After wandering around for a long time, Ling Xiao came to the lobby, and saw a handsome middle-aged man standing in front of the strange stone map of Su Mingxu, the treasure of the town hall, and stopped to admire it.

Ling Xiao didn't notice him at first.

When the shopkeeper Qi Wen saw this handsome man, he hurriedly approached Ling Xiao, and deliberately lowered his voice and replied: "Young master! He is the famous Zi Yihou!"

Ling Xiao was slightly startled.

It turned out that he was the Zi Yihou whom Wei Lanzhi couldn't ask for, who loved and entangled him for half his life and refused to let go!
Although he is middle-aged, he is well-maintained, his complexion is fair and even, his facial features are extremely handsome, and he has an evil and coquettish feeling on his body, which is unforgettable.

Of course, he is not Ling Xiao's type.

Except for the villain male god, Ling Xiao rarely pays attention to other people's appearance and temperament.

Ling Xiao looked at Zi Yihou in front of him carefully, and he was indeed able to handle it!

The face value is excellent, and the facial features are very handsome, but it is a pity that the temperament is a bit too sinister and unrestrained, which makes people find it difficult to subdue.

If Wei Lanzhi had married him as he wished back then, maybe he would live a life of feathers after marriage, and there would be no stories about Bai Yueguang and cinnabar moles.

When in love, he is the white moonlight on the tip of Wei Lanzhi's heart. When the two of them stay together day and night and get used to it, the white moonlight will turn into vulgar rice grains.

Ling Xiao stared at him for a few moments, and was about to turn around and leave.

Zi Yihou suddenly turned around and looked at her playfully: "Are you Wei Lanzhi's daughter?"
