I am happy to be a mother in a famine year, I have a system to farm the land

The emperor choked and could only look at Sima Lian.

"Prime Minister, you are indeed at fault in this matter. I will fine you [-] yuan and three months' salary. Do you have any objections?"

Upon hearing this, Sima Lian immediately took a step forward.

"Sir, I have no objection."

It wasn't until the dull sound of hitting a wooden board came from outside the hall that the old lady returned home with satisfaction.

Looking at the back of the old master, the emperor couldn't help but narrowed his eyes.

Although he respected the old master, if the old master was involved in this situation, he would not be able to remove it...

"Your Majesty, the Tutor is right. A person of Prime Minister Sima's caliber will probably find it difficult to be the leader of all officials."

A censor suddenly stood up, his face full of contempt for Sima Lian.

After finally catching Sima Lian this time, how could he just let him go?

When the civil servant standing on Sima Lian's side heard this, his eyes suddenly widened.

"Master Zhang, there is no evidence for this matter. How can you slander the Prime Minister at will?"

Looking at the man standing behind Sima Lian, his eyes widened with anger, as if it was not Sima Lian who was being blamed, but himself.When the censor heard this, he chuckled.

"Slander? I am not slandering you. Didn't Mr. Zheng hear what Tai Tu just said?"

"Prime Sima is obsessed with personal ethics and even punches and kicks his wife. Isn't this enough to prove that Prime Minister Sima is a person with bad character?"

"you!"

The person defending Sima Lian was obviously choked, and he obviously did not expect that things would turn out like this.

Thinking of Sima Lian's warning to them during this period, although the civil servants were dissatisfied, they could not speak again for fear of being noticed by the emperor.

"Okay, this matter is about the Prime Minister's family background. Not only you, but I have no right to interfere."

The censor knew that he could not punish Sima Lian more severely today, so he reluctantly withdrew.

The emperor counted the time and then looked at Liao Cheng next to him.

Liao Cheng immediately stepped forward and threw the dust in his hand onto his other arm.

"There is a recitation of this book, and there is nothing to retreat to the court!"

Those who defended Sima Company originally thought that they would negotiate the border peace today no matter what. After all, the little prince from that country had given them a lot of gold.

But the Prime Minister was so disturbed by Prime Minister Sima's family affairs today, and they had no chance to speak.

Liao Cheng's shout had already been spoken, and everyone could only bow their hands and salute.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty."

When the emperor came out of the front hall, he looked refreshed.

Seeing this, Liao Cheng on the side also knew that the emperor was in a rare good mood today.

"Your Majesty, a few days ago you asked the Queen Mother for delicious honey cakes. Can you go and try them today?"

The people who make pastries around the Queen Mother are not from the imperial kitchen, but the Queen Mother herself.

Even if the emperor wanted to try it, he would have to go to the Queen Mother's Cining Palace.

"What a good idea. It's rare for me to have some free time today. Let's go to Cining Palace to see our mother."

Seeing the emperor striding towards Cining Palace, Liao Cheng quickly winked at the young eunuch beside him and asked him to rush to Cining Palace to inform him, while he quickly followed the emperor's footsteps.

"What kind of wind brought our emperor here today?"

The Queen Mother looked at the person at the door and put down the needle and thread in her hand without putting it down.

The emperor looked at the Queen Mother's actions and couldn't help but sigh.

"Mother, the imperial doctor has said that you are not allowed to do these jobs. Why don't you listen?"

"We don't lack the money for the embroiderer now, so why do you have to suffer so hard on yourself?"

When the Queen Mother was a princess, in order to support her family, she often sewed clothes for her family.

Queen Mother Enyan couldn't help but glared at the emperor.

"There are only a few things that the Ai family can do now, and you still prevent me from doing them."

"You won't allow this, you won't allow that, what exactly do you want Aijia to do?"

Seeing the Queen Mother who was obviously not in a good mood, the emperor was speechless for a moment.

"Mother, I am also doing this for your own good."

Seeing this, the Queen Mother couldn't help but snorted coldly.

"Hmph, just shut up for my own good. The Ai family doesn't want to hear anything more from you right now."

Ever since Princess Chaoyang's incident, the Empress Dowager didn't like the Emperor very much.

Especially after hearing the rumors that Princess Chaoyang was in the capital, the Queen Mother did not have a good impression of the emperor, the man who once rewarded Princess Chaoyang.

"I heard that something happened in Prime Minister Sima's house last night. It seems to be related to Lao Ba's side?"

The emperor originally thought that the Queen Mother lived in Cining Palace and did not know what was going on in the capital.

Unexpectedly, the information was so well-informed. The Queen Mother knew what happened last night today.

"Mother, I haven't sent anyone to investigate this matter yet."

The Queen Mother felt a little bad when she heard that the emperor didn't ask anyone to check.

"The Ai family heard that Princess Chaoyang was making trouble in the mansion again. This time Murong Ting sent people to the Eighth Prince's Mansion to look for trouble. It was the girl from the Wang family who stopped her."

The emperor was shocked, he didn't expect the Queen Mother to know so clearly.

Seeing the emperor's face, how could the Queen Mother not know what the emperor was thinking.

"Okay, don't keep guessing. The Ai family sent someone to inquire. Now that's all we know. If you want to know, send someone to inquire."

The emperor looked stern: "Mother, this is not what I mean."

"Whether you mean this or not has nothing to do with the Ai family. I'm just telling you that the princess you rewarded is not a peaceful person."

"If you leave her in the capital, something might happen."

When Princess Chaoyang stayed in the capital, the Queen Mother was not very happy.

But the order was given by the emperor, and no matter how unhappy the queen mother was, she could not refute the emperor's face in public.

The emperor couldn't help but sigh when he heard the Queen Mother's words.

"Mother, there is nothing I can do about Princess Chaoyang's matter."

Thinking of this, the emperor also looked bitter.

"Prince Rong has a large number of troops in South Vietnam. If he doesn't take more precautions, he may cause trouble."

"I'm afraid there are no other ways to contain Prince Rong. Only by keeping the hostage Princess Chaoyang in the capital can Prince Rong be at peace in South Vietnam."

How could the Queen Mother not know about this?

But looking at what Princess Chaoyang has done in the capital over the years, the Queen Mother looks a little ugly.

"Even so, we cannot let her do whatever she wants in the capital."

"What's more, now that she has married into the royal family, every move she makes is in the royal family's honor."

"If she continues to make such a fuss, the royal family will lose face."

The Queen Mother frowned when she thought of the things she had found out over the past few days.

Although I don’t know whether the matter is true or not, once such nonsense spreads, it will be detrimental to the royal family.

When the emperor heard the Queen Mother's words, he felt flustered for a moment.He thought the Queen Mother knew something, but found that the Queen Mother looked calm, as if she was saying something insignificant, and the Emperor was relieved.
