Chapter 53 The Emperor's Growth Plan (51)

Seeing that Concubine Xiao Gui is quite well-behaved, Qi Xue also opened her mouth, and the Empress Dowager Zhou didn't want to show her too much face.

A mild 'hmm' was considered a response, and he pointed to the chair below and said, "Sit down."

Concubine Xiao hurriedly saluted and thanked her. Just as her butt touched the seat, the majestic voice of the Queen Mother Zhou came again.

"In these years, the middle palace has been suspended, and the concubine has had a hard time looking after the harem. Now that the new queen is about to enter the palace, he will take care of the work from now on. You just take this opportunity to rest."

This was said very rudely and was considered a direct warning.

The meaning is clear to warn Concubine Xiao that the empress is about to enter the palace, and those little shady thoughts should be put aside. If the diplomatic relations between the two countries are damaged, she will never let her go lightly.

Concubine Xiao's sitting body trembled, her hands on her lap were tightly clenched into fists, her nails dug deep into her palms.

This damn old woman actually took this opportunity to undermine her power!
She raised her beautiful eyes to look at Qi Xue, she was so pitiful, hoping to get support.

A series of small actions were seen by the Empress Dowager Zhou.

She snorted coldly, squinted at Qi Xue, and knocked loudly: "The emperor was busy with government affairs in the previous court, and the empress will take care of the trivial matters in the harem."

"The queen is not here, and there is the queen mother of Aijia."

"The emperor just needs to rest in peace and concentrate on dealing with state affairs. He doesn't have to be distracted by those trivial matters."

Since ancient times, it has been normal for a family to have a division of labor between men and women in charge of the house, and so has the royal family.

The emperor was in charge of the former dynasty, and the queen was in charge of the harem. Each performed its own duties and the boundaries were clear.

Empress Dowager Zhou's words are meant to remind Qi Xue that even if she continues to favor Concubine Xiao, she must have some restraint.

Excessive interference in the affairs of the harem not only violated the rules, but also was ridiculed and criticized by civil and military officials and the people of the world.

"My son understands, but it's up to the queen mother to make the decision." Qi Xue was taught humbly, and gave Concubine Xiao a helpless look.

Concubine Xiao had a lump in her throat and her face looked as ugly as if she had swallowed a fly.

The emperor refused to help her, so she could only watch the Empress Dowager Zhou lording it over her and smiling on her face. How could she not be angry?

"Player, little brother Zhang was so full of laughter that his face turned red."

Zhang Yu was born good-looking, Xiaoliu's favorite type, and his personality also suits his appetite.

So much so that every time he sees him now, Xiao Liu calls him "little brother Zhang" affectionately in his consciousness, and stares at him non-stop with sneaky eyes.

Qi Xue glanced at her without any trace.

Zhang Yu lowered his head, the emotion in his eyes was unclear, and he could only see his reddish cheeks and tightly pursed lips.

The corners of his mouth were raised slightly before he pressed down mercilessly, his body trembling weakly.

Perhaps sensing the staring eyes, Zhang Yu raised his head slightly, his eyes met Qi Xue's unexpectedly, and his eyes met.

Sensing the warning in Qi Xue's eyes, he understood immediately.

Forcibly suppressing the gloating mood, he couldn't suppress it, so he had to lower his head even lower, so that no one would notice that his face was wrong.

The Empress Dowager Zhou was very satisfied with her son's sense of taste, and her complexion softened a little.

Just moving his eyes a little, he saw Concubine Xiao Gui's face pretending to be wronged, and the anger that had just been suppressed was oozing out again.

During the recent period, she had come to understand that the emperor was not interested in Yang Leyun, otherwise he would not have allowed Concubine Xiao to bully her wantonly.

She couldn't press the head of the cow if it didn't drink water, so she could only vent her dissatisfaction on Concubine Xiao Gui.

The Empress Dowager Zhou reprimanded Concubine Xiao Gui in sharp words, and didn't think of leaving until she felt better.

Since she was going to leave, naturally she would not leave Concubine Xiao Gui to blow the pillow, and simply took her away together, so she would not worry.

Concubine Xiao Gui was scolded, she dared not speak out when she was angry, and Qi Xue didn't help her, so she could only go with Queen Mother Zhou with a blue face.

It didn't take long for Concubine Xiao to come out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation with a bad complexion, and it didn't take long for King Xiang to hear about it.

He was very angry, and sent a message directly, asking Concubine Xiao to meet at the same place tomorrow.
