   Chapter 612 Mercy (2)

   Queen Qiao looked at Emperor Yongjia's anger with blue veins in her eyes and sneered in her heart.

  Empress Dowager Zhao didn't do it on purpose, but all these words were poking at Emperor Yongjia's heart. If things go on like this, it's not bad that Emperor Yongjia can still recover from his illness without being **** off by Empress Dowager Zhao.

  Emperor Yongjia glanced at Queen Qiao.

Empress Qiao could no longer pretend to be deaf and dumb, so she had to go forward to comfort Empress Zhao: "Mother, the emperor's dragon body is better for a day, and now he can move his fingers and speak occasionally. If you keep raising it, you will soon be able to Staying here. Does the queen mother cry like this, doesn't she ruin the emperor's blessing?"

   When Empress Dowager Zhao heard this, she immediately wiped her eyes with the back of her hand and pouted a few times: "What a blessing! The emperor is the real dragon and the most fortunate person in the world. No one can break the emperor's blessing!"

   "The mother said yes." Queen Qiao took over the words and said calmly: "In the future, the mother should not cry. Otherwise, the emperor will be anxious and worried because he can't comfort the mother."

   Empress Dowager Zhao subconsciously glanced at Emperor Yongjia.

   Emperor Yongjia laboriously spit out a few words: "Mother, don't, cry."

  Empress Dowager Zhao's eyes became hot again, and she sniffed, finally holding back her hot tears.

  Emperor Yongjia said these four words, his strength was also exhausted, and he quickly closed his eyes.

   Queen Qiao advised Empress Dowager Zhao to leave, but Empress Dowager Zhao refused to leave: "Aijia will not go anywhere, Aijia will stay here."

  I beg you, let's go! I just want to be alone.

  Emperor Yongjia twitched the corners of his mouth and opened his eyes again.

   Empress Dowager Zhao looked at Emperor Yongjia and said eagerly: "Don't worry, Aijia will not leave if you say no. I have been watching over you this afternoon and talking with you."

  Emperor Yongjia closed his eyes again in despair.

   This scene is a little ridiculous.

   Queen Qiao pressed the corner of her raised mouth, waited for a while, and left first.

   Anyway, she did what a queen should do. There is no shortage of people around Yongjia Emperor to take care of, and there is no shortage of people to care about.

   Queen Qiao went back to Jiaofang Hall after leaving Wenhua Hall.

  Li Jue, Li Xuan, Li Cong, three siblings, all waiting for the grandmother to have lunch together. Queen Qiao greeted the children to sit down and filled a bowl of meat for each of the three children.

  Li Conan buried his head in the meal. Li Xuan was afraid that he would be choked, so he patted him on the back from time to time and told him, "Eat slowly, no one will compete with you."

  Li Jue looked up at Queen Qiao and asked softly, "The emperor's grandmother sent a letter to Jiangnan, is my mother coming back soon?"

   Queen Qiao counted the days in her heart, and said with a low laugh: "It will take a few days to deliver the letter quickly. If you rush back to Beijing, it will take seven or eight days. Just wait patiently!"

  Li Jue nodded obediently.

   Li Xuan sighed: "I really miss my mother."

Wow!

  Li Cong suddenly burst into tears, and the ribs in his mouth fell to the table: "Mother, I want mother!"

  Li Xuan and Li Jue's sadness of missing her mother was shaken by Zhentian's cry and disappeared.

   Queen Qiao was so distressed that she immediately hugged Li Conan and patted Li Conan on the back. After coaxing for a long time, Li Yun stopped crying.

  …

evening.

   Two young men appeared outside the vermilion gate of the Zongren Mansion. These two people, one with a slightly lame right leg and the other with handsome looks, both wore bright yellow princely uniforms.

   is the first prince and the fourth prince.

   The concierge did not dare to neglect, and immediately went to pass the message. After a while, Duke Dongping walked out quickly: "Your Highness, Fourth Highness, why are you here?"

  The fourth prince was a lively person, and his lips were numb, and he immediately stepped forward and shouted: "Uncle Dongping."

  The King of Dongping County is the cousin of Emperor Yongjia, and he is Zongzheng. That is, the patriarch of the Li family. A powerful figure in the royal family.

  The Duke of Dongping County smiled, but he felt vigilant in his heart: "The two Your Royal Highnesses came, and I don't know why?"

The eldest prince said solemnly, "We want to meet the third and fifth brothers."

   Really came for Li Hao and Li Chang.

The Duke of Dongping's eyes flashed, and he coughed: "The Empress has an order, the third and fifth royal highnesses are locked in the prison of the ancestral mansion, and no one can get close to half a step. When the emperor recovers, he will personally interrogate him. I am ordered. Guard them, your two Highnesses, don't make things difficult for me."

   The eldest prince was a little unhappy, and his face sank: "If Uncle Wang is not at ease, when the fourth brother and I go in, just send someone to follow us."

   "Yeah, Uncle Wang." The fourth prince took the words diligently: "We have no other intentions, just worry about the third brother and the fifth brother, and want to take a look. Make sure they are all right, we will leave."

  The Duke of Dongping took a bite and refused to let go: "I am acting on orders, and I don't mean to make things difficult. If I send you to prison, there is no way to explain to the Queen."

   The eldest prince was so angry that he couldn't help but sneered a few words: "Uncle Wang is a sectarian, and if you want to obey the order, you should also obey the order of the father. Now it's strange to have a mother."

The Duke of Dongping County replied without changing his face: "The emperor is contemplating and recuperating, and it is also reasonable for the empress to make an order on her behalf. Even the prince of Xingyang, the Hou Guangping of Puyang, has received Feng's decree from the empress. I listened to the empress's orders. What a strange thing."

   "His Royal Highness wants to see His Royal Highness the Third Highness and His Fifth Highness, please go to Jiaofang Palace to ask the Empress. Only if the Empress Fengyu is in charge can I let His Highness enter the prison of the Zongren Mansion. Otherwise, His Highness, please go back!"

   First Prince: "..."

  The eldest prince was pushed back by Shengsheng, his face suddenly sank, he snorted, and walked away.

  The fourth prince looked helpless, and bowed his hands to the King of Dongping County: "Big brother has this temper, don't mind Uncle Wang."

   The Duke of Dongping chuckled: "I know better than anyone the temper of Your Highness, why should I take it to heart."

  Li Yan became an official of the East Palace, and married the princess's sister as his wife, so he had a close relationship with the East Palace. The Prince's Mansion in Dongping County has long since joined the Prince's camp.

  The Duke of Dongping is on the side of Queen Qiao, and it is only natural.

   The fourth prince sighed secretly, bid farewell to Duke Dongping, and quickly chased after him.

  The eldest prince had trouble with his legs and feet, and walked with a limp. The fourth prince caught up in a few breaths: "Big brother, big brother, Uncle Wang is also under orders, so don't get angry with Uncle Wang."

   The eldest prince sneered: "What am I, what qualifications do I have to be angry with the Duke of Dongping. They are right, you and I are not qualified to go to prison. Put away your kindness as soon as possible!"

  The fourth prince was a little helpless: "Brother, if you are not happy, don't come at me. I am not like you, and I was rejected by Uncle Wang."

   The eldest prince glanced at the fourth prince, and said yin and yang in a strange voice: "I am a cripple, how can I be side by side with you."

  The Fourth Prince: "..."

  The fourth prince was so enraged that he simply stopped and ignored the eldest prince.

   On the first day of 2022, I wish all book lovers a happy new year, and all your wishes come true O(∩_∩)O~
