Chapter 511 Longevity Palace

On the side of the imperial mausoleum, inside the Changshou Zhai, green smoke flutters.

It has been nearly three months since she stayed here, and Concubine Duan is used to living here, living a very simple life every day.

Of course, Concubine Duan herself didn't want to live such an easy life, it's just that someone here is strictly monitoring her so that she can't do other things.

But this kind of monitoring can only prevent her from making troubles, but it does not prevent her from knowing the outside news.

For example, what happened at the Great Court Meeting three days ago had already reached her ears at this very moment.

Kneeling in front of the Buddha statue, Concubine Duan said in a low voice: "Mr. Li wants to be the Empress Dowager, it's not that easy!"

Kneeling behind her is Lingsu, and there are only two of them in the room at the moment.

"If Mrs. Li can't be the empress dowager, you might..."

Concubine Duan put down the Buddhist scriptures, opened her eyes and asked, "Go ahead!"

"Your Majesty, you are very kind to the emperor. If Mrs. Li loses power, your Majesty may return to the palace one day!"

Hearing this, Concubine Duan showed a smile on her face: "You mean, the emperor will take me back to the palace?"

"Exactly!" Lingsu nodded, and then said: "So empress, please wait patiently, there is hope in the future after all!"

Concubine Duan couldn't help being stunned, she wanted to say that Ling Su was too naive, but what he said was to reassure her, so that Concubine Duan could no longer make fun of her.

"I hope what you said is true, in the future I will return to the palace one day!" Concubine Duan said with a slight smile.

But what she was thinking at the moment was not Zhao Weilong taking her into the palace, but her own son Yongwang Zhao Yanxun.

Ever since receiving Zhao Yanxun's letter, Concubine Duan has been holding back and never summoned Liu De for questioning.

Of course, she is also waiting for the opportunity, and when the time is right, she will take the initiative.

Seeing Concubine Duan's smile, Lingsu also laughed.

Lingsu grew up with Concubine Duan since she was a child. Although she is a master and servant, she is better than a sister. Naturally, she misses Concubine Duan in her heart.

"Lingsu, let's go..."

"Yes!" Lingsu replied.

But the next second she was stunned, so she stopped.

"My lady...where are you going?"

Concubine Duan flipped through the scriptures and said slowly: "Leave here, leave Changshouzhai!"

With a bitter face, Lingsu said, "Your Majesty...don't joke with your slaves!"

"I'm not kidding you, get out of here!"

Thumped all over, Ling Su knelt on the ground directly, climbed up to Concubine Duan and kowtowed: "What did the servant do wrong, the empress punishes it, why do you want to drive the servant away!"

Concubine Duan had been thinking about this matter for a long time, and she chose to speak out today, so she guessed that Lingsu would react in this way.

"There is a pit of fire around me right now, follow me...you will not end well!"

"Let's go... go far away!" Concubine Duan said earnestly.

Ling Su, who had always been obedient to Concubine Duan, said with firm eyes at this moment: "Your Majesty, even if you die, the servant will not leave!"

"You..." Concubine Duan was anxious: "Why are you like this!"

But Lingsu asked back: "Why is your mother like this?"

Lingsu's "death" to show her ambition also made Concubine Duan dispel her thoughts of driving her away, because the other party couldn't drive her away.

"Why am I like this?" Concubine Duan asked back.

"The servant has been with the empress for so many years, and she is loyal... Could it be that in the heart of the empress, the servant is a person who cannot share weal and woe?"

In a word, Concubine Duan was stopped by the question.

Concubine Duan picked up the rosary, closed her eyes and said in a deep voice, "Go make tea!"

With a smile on her face, Lingsu slowly got up from the ground, and then said: "Your servant obeys!"

When Lingsu walked out of the room, facing Concubine Duan outside the door, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

…………

Inside the Forbidden Palace, the Longevity Palace.

Longevity Palace has always been the residence of the Empress Dowager, and now Mrs. Li lives here.

And the Changchun Palace where she used to live was vacated, and after Zhao Weilong got married, a new empress would move in.

Sitting in the side hall, the former Empress Li was tasting tea.

The palace is resplendent and magnificent, compared with the coldness of the long fast, it is like heaven and earth.

"Your Majesty, I heard that many ministers have come forward, please respect your Majesty as the Empress Dowager... It seems that this day is not far away!"

Hearing what his confidant mother said, Mrs. Li had a smile on her face.

The emperor has always disrespected her as the empress dowager, Li Shi knows exactly what is on her mind.

She was not very anxious about this, because the longer the delay, the greater the pressure on the emperor.

And sooner or later, he will not be able to bear that day, and then he has to be honest and give her the title of Empress Dowager.

The Empress Dowager, since the founding of the Great Jin Dynasty, she is still the second place here to the Li family. What a respect and honor this is.

At that time, even if she turned against the emperor, Li Shi would be happy and not afraid.

Another nanny said, "The emperor thought he could put this matter aside by pretending to be dizzy, but in the end he became a joke!"

There were only the three of them in the room, and the entire Yanshou Palace was Li's confidant, so there was no need to worry about the news leaking.

Mrs. Li put down her teacup, and said in a cold tone, "The emperor is not something you should talk about!"

"Yes!"

"Don't have another time!"

"Yes!"

After a few moments of silence in the room, Li Shi asked, "That bitch surnamed Cao, how is life going now? What do you do every day? Meet those people?"

There are many people who monitor Concubine Duan, and the one who contributes the most is Li Shi.

She and Concubine Duan are at odds with each other, so naturally she will do everything possible to find out Concubine Duan's inappropriateness and flaws, and put her to death.

"That bitch is now focused on reciting Buddha's name, but he never sees outsiders, but sends people out to inquire about news from time to time!"

Hearing this, Mrs. Li sneered and said, "I thought she was really devoting herself to eating vegetarian food and reciting Buddha's name. It seems that she still has a wicked heart..."

The nanny on the side asked: "My lady...do you want to cause her some trouble?"

Li put down the teacup and said: "Forget it, let him live a peaceful life for a few more days, there will be plenty of time to take care of her later!"

Now is the critical time for her to become the empress dowager, so it is better not to cause trouble at this time.

"Your Majesty is wise..."

At this moment, a voice of complaint came from outside: "I want to report to your empress, Li Xuan, please see me!"

"What is she here for? No, let her go back!"

Seeing Li Suxin at this time will only aggravate the emperor's suspicion and cause trouble for him to become empress dowager.

"Yes!"

Besides, outside the palace gate, when she was rejected for an audience, Li Suxin was furious.

It's ridiculous to say that Zhao Weilong has already ascended the throne, and Li Suxin is still living in the East Palace, and the issue of status has not been resolved.

Today she came to see her aunt in order to get a title for herself.

Zhao Weilong wanted to honor his biological father as emperor and give her the status of concubine, which is something that can be won.

Not far behind Li Suxin, standing is his son, who is also in the embarrassing situation of "no name and no name".

Seeing Li Suxin come back, Zhao Weiheng asked in a low voice, "Mother...doesn't my aunt see us from afar?"

Li Suxin didn't answer, but said viciously: "Go... let's go back!"
