Chapter 296 The Original Match 8
The Empress Dowager's boudoir name is Minyi, and she was born in a first-class Wu family, and she is also a well-bred girl in the family.At the beginning, the royal family played a game with the aristocratic family, the princess or married a daughter, and finally the queen mother entered the palace and became the first emperor's pure concubine.

This is the first time the Queen Mother has been given up.She didn't cry or make trouble, and calmly brought her maid into the palace, and became the emperor's concubine. She seemed to be prosperous and rich, but in fact she was like a prison.

The second time was when the Empress Dowager gave birth to a child. When it was difficult, she heard the emperor's emotionless voice saying: "Bao Xiao." At that moment, she only felt a force surge in her body, and finally both mother and child were safe.

This is the third time that she is going to be buried, and she needs to be buried so that her son will not be young and mother strong.If it wasn't for her long-standing friendship in the Tai Hospital, she would already be a dead soul in the underground.What about mourning after death?
When she heard that the officials entered the palace to ask her to listen to the government, the corners of the queen mother's mouth rose slightly after being startled.The maid she brought into the palace has now become a nun.

Nanny Wu said: "Your Majesty, the head of the family asks you not to forget the family's teachings."

The Queen Mother smiled and said, "Don't worry, I know what to do. Tell me about the situation outside first."

Nanny Wu told the Empress Dowager the news from the Wu family. There was a lot of competition among the ministers, the aristocratic family and the humble family, the royal family and the ministers, were fighting one after another, and no one would give an inch.

The disadvantaged family has little place to live, so it cannot be given up.

The aristocratic family is unwilling to let it go, who would be willing to spit out what is in the mouth.

The imperial power cannot be surrendered, the little emperor cannot be the master, but the royal family is still there, they may not care about it on weekdays, but it cannot be surrendered if it involves the interests of the royal family.

The queen mother asked: "You mean that an article about Meng's mother's three relocations was published outside, so that everyone is aware of my existence?"

Mother Wu retorted: "That's not the case. Originally, the head of the family was planning to let you come out to take charge of the affairs. It's just that this article came out at the right time, and those poor families also thought of this method."

The Queen Mother nodded slightly.

At this time, the petitioning ministers had already arrived in the palace, and the Queen Mother said: "Invite them in."

After the ministers came in to salute, a minister reported to the empress dowager the current plight of the Ming court, hoping that the empress dowager could listen to the government behind the curtain and assist the emperor in handling the government affairs.

The Empress Dowager said: "That should be the case. As the first emperor and empress concubine, and the emperor's birth mother, I will naturally not sit back and watch the princes make things difficult."

The Empress Dowager added a chair beside the dragon chair, leaning back slightly, and hanging a curtain in front of her to show the emperor's dignity.

However, from then on, all ministers respected the Queen Mother.

The Empress Dowager does not express her opinions easily on weekdays. If there is something to discuss, she will be discussed by the ministers, and finally the opinion with the most supporters will be supported.After so many months, all the ministers felt that the Empress Dowager was just, better than the former emperor.

The queen mother issued an order in her spare time, saying that she wanted to find some female officials to work by her side and give them Juelu, but they didn't have to serve, they only helped with official affairs.

The queen mother's rare order does not involve the overall situation, no matter whether it is from aristocratic or poor families, it will not refuse.So the imperial court ordered that a woman with both ability and virtue be selected into the palace to assist the queen mother.

Logically speaking, in terms of talents and virtues, there is no one more suitable than a daughter from an aristocratic family, but all the aristocratic families seem to have forgotten this and only choose people from the common people.

The common people were not allowed to be educated, so naturally they couldn't be selected, so in the end, apart from the two girls sent in by the Wu family, the only female officials around the queen mother were Yan Ruoci who signed up voluntarily.

The queen mother is very interested in Ruoci and often calls her to talk.In Ruoci's words, he occasionally tentatively leaked some opinions that were different from the times, but instead of scolding, the Empress Dowager listened to it with gusto.

Yan Ruoci knew immediately that the Queen Mother could be confirmed as her ally.

One day, a small incident happened in the court, but the conflict between the poor family and the aristocratic family came to the fore, and the two parties asked the queen mother to arbitrate.

The queen mother tapped her knees, trying to figure out what everyone was thinking.You don't need to think about this matter, the winner must be the aristocratic family, the strength of the humble family is too small, so what is the significance of the aristocratic family's mention of this matter?

Probing?Still don't trust her?
Yan Ruoci said: "My dear, you can't help but push your limits. You have made the family very satisfied, but maybe they want to be more satisfied."

The queen mother laughed, yes, she still doesn't know the greed of the family!Since she took charge of politics, she has been trying to stand in the middle and maintain the balance of several parties, which in itself is already a bias towards the family.But the family is still dissatisfied, they want more.

This incident was a temptation.To test whether the queen mother is a family daughter or a royal queen mother.

"Ruoci, what do you think Aijia should do?"

Yan Ruoci said: "It's time for you to choose a stance, otherwise you will only be a different person inside and out."

The Queen Mother pondered for a moment, then bowed her head and said, "What position can I have? My position is myself!"

Whether it is the aristocratic family or the royal family, it is a cage for Minyi.Regardless of her status as a family daughter or queen mother, she has always been the one who was abandoned. If so, why should she stand in line with others?

The next day, the Empress Dowager announced: "The Son of Heaven breaks the law, and the common people are guilty of the same crime. The son of the Qi family raped the women of the people and harmed the common people. He should be punished. Ting Wei, send someone to the Qi family to arrest him."

The humble officials were overjoyed and called the Queen Mother wise.

The Shi family remained silent.

An official of the Wu family stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, what the Qi family killed was a slave, and killing a slave is innocent."

The Queen Mother said: "Whether he is innocent or not, it is up to Ting Wei to decide."

The Wu family also silenced their flags and drums.A court meeting ended in a strange atmosphere.

After the court meeting ended, the queen mother said to Yan Ruoci: "Ruoci, our battle has just begun."

Yan Ruoci said: "I will always be with you."

The two looked at each other and smiled. At this moment, they have no difference in status, they are just companions and allies.

Afterwards, the Empress Dowager called the heads of several small families into the palace to talk.Although these small aristocratic families are also called aristocratic families, they can't even touch the royal family on weekdays.

In the past, Mr. Gu led the Gu family to fully support the Chen family to reach the top, and today's Gu family can become a first-class family.Which aristocratic family does not want to replicate such a miracle.

The queen mother showed her head a little, and these small families expressed their support one after another.Of course, don't expect them to be of much use, they just want to be the current Gu family, but they don't want to contribute to the royal family like the ancestors of the Gu family.

The queen mother also understands this, but it would not be bad to find a few more answerers.

Yan Ruoci found time to make another sample of white paper and presented it to the Queen Mother when she was alone.The queen mother immediately realized the great benefits brought by the blank paper after trying it herself.

This is a sharp weapon that can last forever if used well.

This temptation was too great, the queen mother swallowed and looked at Yan Ruoci.

Ruoci said: "Your Majesty, although it has many benefits, the first person who takes it out may not necessarily get the benefits."

The Queen Mother trembled: "I want to use it!"

Yan Ruoci saluted solemnly, "Ruoci will definitely do his best, and he will fulfill your expectations even if he is smashed to pieces."

The queen mother calmed down for a while, and helped her up, "You don't need to go to pieces, there are so many families, and there will always be people who can't see clearly. Let them step on it first and then talk."

The Queen Mother hid the white paper on her body, so no one would dare to search her body.

Now that he has this thing, the relationship with the aristocratic family can still be maintained.

The Empress Dowager looked at Yan Ruoci, "Ruoci, the aristocratic family"

Yan Ruoci said: "Don't worry, I'll go tell them. It's just that you have to lend me your blank paper first."

So the queen mother took out the blank paper and handed it to Yan Ruoci.
