   Chapter 388 Shocking News (2)

   Consort Wu saw Li Chang's useless appearance in his eyes, and couldn't help laughing secretly.

  Empress Dowager Zhao has never been out of the inner house in her life, and when she became an empress dowager, she would show her prestige in the palace. When something big happens, you lose your mind. Empress Qiao is stronger than Empress Dowager Zhao, but unfortunately she can't afford it.

   The only person in the palace who can take charge and stabilize people's hearts is the Crown Princess Lu Mingyu.

   Although Li Chang was a prince, he was mediocre and immature. Even in the eyes of the officials, the Crown Princess was much more reliable than the Fifth Prince.

  Lu Mingyu ignored Li Chang's careful thought, and said to Wu Consort Wu in a warm voice: "It is not too late, please leave the palace immediately, and the borrowed war horses should be registered in the register, and then handed over to General Liang."

   Consort Wu complied with her grace and retire.

  Li Chang didn't wait for Lu Mingyu's instructions, and he said goodbye spontaneously.

   After leaving Jiaofang Palace, Li Chang did not go back to his bedroom, but went to Yihua Palace.

Seeing his own mother, Concubine Su, Li Chang was full of bitterness and angrily accused: "...she's a princess, what's wrong with me, I'm still a prince! In such a situation, I should be in charge. She is a woman, He stretched out his hands to the courtroom. He was simply Sichen!"

   These words came to Concubine Su's heart, and she opened her mouth and said, "Isn't it true? Such an ambitious woman, how can she be held back! It's hard to say whether this Jiangshan is surnamed Li or Lu in the future."

   In her previous life, she suppressed her daughter-in-law in every possible way, also for the sake of the Li family.

   If the young Yaner really succeeded the throne, Lu Mingyu, who became the queen mother, would be able to get involved in the government and conquer the Li family. It would be better to let Li Chang sit on the dragon chair. In the future, I will return the government to my nephew.

   Even if she doesn't pay it back, her son will still be the emperor!

  Li Chang listened to his mother's words, which was very pleasant. The mother and son sat together and scolded for half an hour before they each calmed down their anger.

   Concubine Su tidyed up the front of Li Chang's clothes, and whispered: "I know you are not happy. Now is not the time to be angry, your arms can't twist your thighs, and you bow your head and endure it."

   "Anyway, it's a good thing to be able to listen to politics. You learn how to be an official. When your third brother comes back in the future, you can also be on your own."

  Li Hao's reputation became more and more famous, and he was quite valued by Emperor Yongjia. When Concubine Su mentioned Li Haolai, her tone was full of pride.

  Li Chang's heart was sour, and he answered in a dull voice.

  …

  In the bedroom, Queen Qiao, who was described as haggard, was lying on the bed.

  Princess Hui'an has been ill, and the whole person has lost a lot of weight, and her complexion is dark.

At this time, Princess Hui'an patiently persuaded Queen Qiao: "Don't worry about your mother. The country of Yan has been completely defeated, and even King Yan has surrendered to his father. The one called Yan Tuo is struggling to the death. Hundreds of thousands of people in the capital There are more than 40,000 soldiers and only 50,000 Yan troops, how could it be possible to enter the capital."

   "Sister Huang is right. Yan Jun is struggling to the death, making the final blow, nothing to be afraid of. There is no need to worry about the queen mother."

  Lu Mingyu's voice sounded at the door, Queen Qiao on the bed looked up subconsciously, and saw Lu Mingyu walking over slowly, holding Brother Jue with his left hand and Sister Xuan with his right.

   Sister Xuan couldn't understand what the adults said, so she rushed to the side of the bed and called out to the grandmother in a milky voice.

  The arrival of a pair of grandchildren greatly comforted the terrified Queen Qiao.

Queen Qiao cheered up, touched Brother Jue's little face, and then touched Sister Xuan's face, and then sighed to Lu Mingyu: "Bengong has been ill, don't let the children get sick. Let me Nanny take them out to play!"

   Queen Qiao is like this every day, and when she sees it, she urges the child to leave quickly.

   It can be seen that she is a grandmother.

  Lu Mingyu didn't argue with Queen Qiao, and smiled casually: "I listen to my mother."

  The nanny was on the side, coaxing the children out to play. As soon as the two brothers and sisters left, the lively bedroom suddenly returned to quiet.

   Queen Qiao asked her to sit on the bed with her support, and asked about the affairs of the court with concern. Lu Mingyu picked out some important things and said, "...The queen mother just needs to recuperate at ease. With General Liang here, she will definitely be able to defend the capital."

   Queen Qiao took a deep breath: "Fortunately, Liang Zhan is still there."

When Queen Qiao married into the Li family, General Liang was not called Liang Zhan. In the following years, as Emperor Yongjia fought and sacrificed himself to protect his master, Emperor Yongjia was grateful for Liang Zhan's loyalty, and after establishing a new dynasty, he gave Liang Zhan the position of the general of the Imperial Guard. He also made the eldest prince marry Liang Zhan's daughter.

   This kind of trust and holy family is like a mountain of grace for General Liang, who was once a servant of the family. General Liang's loyalty to Emperor Yongjia is well known.

   Queen Qiao also trusts General Liang.

  Lu Mingyu saw Queen Qiao's expression stretched out, and the stone in her heart fell to the ground, so she deliberately picked some light and easy things to gossip with Queen Qiao for a long time.

Queen Qiao patted the back of her daughter-in-law's hand and said in a low voice, "Bengong knows your filial piety. Right now, the people inside and outside the palace are in turmoil, and you have to support it. You can take a break when you are free. Here in Bengong. It's enough to have Hui'an to help you. Don't worry about this palace."

  The human heart is made of flesh.

  You think about me, I think about you.

   Over the past year, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have become more harmonious and respectful of each other, not only as close as mother and daughter.

  Lu Mingyu replied with a smile: "The royal elder sister is filial, and the daughter-in-law also has the heart of the daughter-in-law. Talking with the mother every day is not exhausting."

  No matter what Queen Qiao said, she came to see her every day.

   As he was talking, someone from the palace got up and replied, "The Empress Dowager has sent someone to invite the Crown Princess to go to Shouning Palace."

  Lu Mingyu got up: "I'll go right now."

  …

   To say that Empress Dowager Zhao is also a real person.

   I didn't like Lu Mingyu before, so when I opened my mouth, I said that Lu Mingyu was wrong, and always made things difficult and mean.

  At the moment, Emperor Yongjia's father and son are not in the capital, and the only remaining fifth prince, Li Chang, is useless. Queen Qiao is ill, and Empress Dowager Zhao has no backbone. When she is in a panic, she is happy to talk to Lu Mingyu.

   "Did the Yan army come in?" Empress Dowager Zhao asked in a veiled manner.

  Lu Mingyu's expression was as usual: "According to the report of the spies, the Yan army still has two days to travel before they can reach the capital. The imperial grandmother is safe."

   Empress Dowager Zhao said with a sad face: "We will arrive in the capital in two days. I heard that the Yan army are all savages who are eight feet tall and drink blood. How can Aijia not be afraid!"

   A savage eight feet tall and drinking blood?

  Lu Mingyu frowned slightly and glanced at Concubine Qin.

   Concubine Qin coughed and explained embarrassingly: "I also heard people say it, and said it casually to relieve the empress dowager, who knows that the empress dowager will take it seriously."

   At critical times, farts are useless and gossip is first-class.

  Lu Mingyu's tone was light: "It's really boring, so do some other entertainment. It's better to say less about such absurd words."

  Concubine Qin: "..."
