Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Chu Xuan walked down without caring. Feng Guanlan stopped him with a flick of his fly whisk, and whispered: "Your Majesty, please be patient. The Queen Mother must have heard the news and came to investigate. Don't go to the tip of the knife again." Got hit."

Chu Xuan muttered "I'm so bored" in depression, but in the end he didn't dare to move anymore. He stood on the jade steps and watched the Queen Mother and Chu Zhao approaching.

The courtiers knew that the Queen Mother was probably here for King Jingnan's affairs, so they all waited quietly to see if the Queen Mother could get the emperor to take back his life.

The emperor, who had always been obedient to Mr. He Ge, suddenly became extra tough today. He ordered officials from various ministries to go out of the city to greet King Jingnan at any cost. The reward given to King Jingnan also greatly exceeded the previous precedent of rewarding heroes. He Ge was not allowed to do anything. No matter how much I tried to dissuade him, I refused to change my mind.

This abnormal attitude was indeed beyond everyone's expectations.

However, seeing the emperor's enthusiasm for Princess Jingnan at this time, combined with the emperor's ridiculous behavior, it is not difficult for everyone to guess that the emperor's abnormal behavior must be to win the beauty's smile.

This is really something their Majesty can do.

However, since the Queen Mother objected to the emperor's preferential treatment of King Jingnan, why did she let Princess Jingnan come with her?

King Jingnan and Princess Jingnan are one and the same, so how can they say certain things in front of Princess Jingnan?

What is the Queen Mother thinking?

The doubts of the courtiers were also the doubts of Pavilion Elder He Pingchuan. Seeing the Queen Mother and Chu Zhao walking forward step by step, he, who had always been indifferent to emotions and anger, twisted his eyebrows into the character "Sichuan".

At this time, the most calm person in the audience was probably Feng Guanlan.

Although Feng Guanlan did not know that Chu Zhao would come beforehand, he was not surprised by Chu Zhao's arrival.

Too many unbelievable things have happened to Princess Jingnan. Not to mention suddenly entering the Chengtian Palace, he would not find it strange if she sat on the Dragon Throne the next moment.

For this princess, everything is possible, if she wants it, she can always do it.

Everyone had their own thoughts, and the hall was silent for a while.

The Queen Mother walked to the jade steps and stood still, looking up at the emperor standing on the steps.

If this had happened in the past, the emperor would have come down to greet her and personally helped her sit down on the dragon throne.

But today, the emperor did nothing. He just stood on top and looked at her condescendingly, without even calling her "Mother".

The Queen Mother was annoyed, her face was as gloomy as water, and she asked sternly: "Hasn't the matter of King Jingnan's coming to Beijing been discussed a long time ago? Why do you go back on your promise and insist on going your own way without listening to the advice of the elders and ministers?"

Although Chu Xuan had made up his mind to be tough for once, he still couldn't help but flinch in the face of the Queen Mother's anger.

Chu Zhao stood beside the Queen Mother and gave him an encouraging smile while no one was paying attention.

Chu Xuan suddenly felt as if he had been given a shot of blood. Not only did he puff up his chest, but his voice also became confident: "I am the emperor, don't I even have the power to reward a meritorious official? If everything must be listened to by the elders and courtiers, With the arrangement, what else is the need for me, the emperor, to exist?"

"Bastard!" the Queen Mother pointed at his nose and yelled angrily, "Do you have any brains? Is this what a king of a country should say?"

Chu Xuan was excited and subconsciously wanted to apologize. When he saw Chu Zhao looking at him expectantly, he was immediately filled with courage.

"I don't think I have done anything wrong. King Jingnan has been guarding the southwest for generations, and he has worked hard and accomplished a lot. He just pacified Wusul before entering Beijing. This time, he also wiped out a large wave of rebels who were plotting to harm the people. Princess Jingnan is a weak woman. On the way to Beijing, they also made great contributions to quelling the chaos and rescuing the people. Now they are busy and working tirelessly to deal with the mother's illness. Could it be that the contribution they and their husbands made to Dayan did not deserve a ceremony where hundreds of officials came out of the city to greet them? "

"you……"

The Queen Mother blushed angrily at his plausible rebuttal and wanted to rush up the steps and wake him up with two big mouths.

He Yunjie watched with cold eyes and saw Chu Xuan looking at Chu Zhao from time to time. Knowing that he was doing this to show off to Chu Zhao, he rushed in front of the Queen Mother and said: "This is the place where political affairs are discussed. Why did the Queen Mother bring Princess Jingnan?" ?”

The Queen Mother was furious. When she heard this, she turned her head and looked at Chu Zhao, her heart skipping a beat.

She was only focused on being angry, but she didn't know when Chu Zhao also came in.

Only then did she remember to see the reactions of the civil and military officials. Seeing everyone watching them in silence, she felt regretful.

"Didn't you agree to wait outside the palace? Why did you come in?"

She frowned and glared at Chu Zhao displeasedly, trying her best to put the blame on Chu Zhao.

Chu Zhao was not in a hurry and said what he had said before in front of the ministers: "The Queen Mother has just had an acupuncture. At this time, it is easy for the Qi and blood to go retrograde when she is angry. The minister is really worried, so she follows the Queen Mother. Just in case.”

Her attitude was neither humble nor arrogant, and her words were concise and clear. She seemed to be explaining the situation to the Queen Mother, but in fact she was explaining the situation to others.

After hearing her words, everyone had expressions of "I see."

He Pingchuan knew that this woman was cunning, and it was difficult to say anything to her in front of so many people. He tried his best to speak calmly: "Although the princess is thinking about the Queen Mother's health, the Chengtian Palace does not allow female relatives to set foot, so the princess still waits outside the palace. Bar!"

Chu Zhao naturally would not listen to what he said. He smiled calmly and said: "Why should Mr. Ge be so serious? I have been here and I have heard what I should hear. What is the point of going out at this time? Do you want to scheme behind my back?" My prince, are you afraid that I will hear anything unpleasant to say?"

"..."

He Pingchuan was choked to death the first time he confronted her, and he almost lost his temper.

Feng Guanlan spoke up in time: "Princess Jingnan is right. She's already here, and she's here for the Queen Mother's body. What's more, we are discussing her husband's affairs. Is it okay to kick him out at this time?" You seem to have a guilty conscience, Mr. He Ge?"

"..."

He Pingchuan hadn't calmed down from the tone just now, and was so angry that he was so angry with this damn eunuch's strange anger. He pointed at him and couldn't say anything to refute. He only hated that his face was not as thick as his.

Chu Zhao took the opportunity to say: "Mr. He Ge didn't say anything. He must have approved Eunuch Feng's remarks. Then I can stay with peace of mind. Don't worry, Mr. He Ge, I will not interfere with your discussions. I just want to make sure that the Queen Mother will not be angry." Whatever happens, that’s fine.”

"..."

He Pingchuan had a mouthful of old blood stuck in his throat, and his face turned the color of pig's liver.

Because his son had suffered a loss in front of this woman before, he was already very prepared to deal with it. Unexpectedly, this woman was not only cunning and cunning, but also had a first-rate ability to be shameless and irritating.

He Yunjie looked at his father's angry face from the side. Somehow, the first thought that came to his mind was - you finally understand my difficulties this time, right?
