In Ci'an Palace, the Queen Mother saw Chu Zhao walking in holding Princess Huai'an's hand, and a kind smile immediately appeared on her face.
"Huai'an, come, come to the Imperial Grandmother." She opened her hand and said to Princess Huai'an.
Princess Huai'an hesitated for a moment, then obediently stepped forward to bow and snuggled into her arms.
The Queen Mother hugged the princess and patted her gently: "Huai'an is such a good boy. Following Princess Jingnan in the past few days, he has become more and more energetic."
"It's all thanks to the Imperial Grandmother." Princess Huai'an said crisply, "With the Imperial Grandmother's love, Huai'an will be better off in the future."
The Queen Mother laughed and pinched her cheek lovingly: "Look at how well this little mouth can talk. Did Princess Jingnan teach you that?"
Princess Huai'an glanced at Chu Zhao, shook her head and said, "No, it's Huai'an's sincerity. Huai'an really likes the imperial grandmother."
The Queen Mother did not say whether she believed it or not, and continued her topic: "Princess Jingnan is smart and eloquent. Everyone she teaches can speak. Your father only met Princess Jingnan twice, and he and Princess Jingnan talked. It’s so different from before!”
Chu Zhao was still wondering why the queen mother was so enthusiastic towards the princess today. After hearing this, she finally understood. It turned out that she was trying to beat the princess by talking to her!
"The Empress Dowager is too generous. I am not as good as you said." Chu Zhao said modestly, "Your Majesty's excellence is the result of the Queen Mother's sincere teachings since childhood. I will never dare to take credit."
"The princess is too modest." The queen mother smiled, "But having said that, your majesty is a man after all, and he has an eclectic temperament. It would be better for you to have less contact with him in the future, so as not to spread any rumors to King Jingnan. Make you and your wife unhappy."
"..."
Chu Zhao rolled his eyes inwardly and said to himself, "You also know what kind of virtue your son is. If that's the case, why didn't you restrain him earlier?"
I'm afraid that in order to stabilize your position, you wish your son would be a second-generation ancestor, right?
"The Queen Mother is still thoughtful, I will pay attention to it in the future." Chu Zhao said, "But my prince is a broad-minded person. Even if I show my face outside, he will never doubt me or guard against me."
Having said this, I couldn't help but laugh when I thought of Murong Xiao's previous suspicions about her.
Fortunately, Yunzhou is far away from the capital, so the Queen Mother will not know about these things, so she can make it up as she likes.
"Really, so to speak, King Jingnan is a rare and good man." The Queen Mother was doubtful and followed the topic, "You and your wife have just entered the capital, and there is no one to serve you in the palace. The Ai family is planning to leave from I wonder what you would like to select some eunuchs and maids from the palace and send them over?"
Chu Zhao was slightly startled, but soon understood what she meant.
She thinks there are not enough informants outside the palace, and she wants to put people inside the palace!
I just don’t know if she came up with this idea, or if it was He Yunjie’s grandson who came up with it?
"Thank you, Queen Mother, for taking the trouble. The number of people in the palace is fixed, so it's hard to send them out. I'll just ask the prince to buy a few from Ren Yazi later. After the Queen Mother recovers from her illness, we will go back to Yunzhou, so we can make do with it." That’s fine.” Chu Zhao declined with a smile.
The Queen Mother did not give up so easily, and deliberately said with a straight face: "You have come all the way here for the Ai family's illness, how can I let you make do with these things? The Ai family has made up its mind, and you don't have to refuse anymore. You are in the palace." In the past few days, there have been no palace servants who have looked at each other. If not, the Ai family would have made the decision on their own."
Seeing her resolute attitude, Chu Zhao knew that he could not refuse, so he thought for a while and said: "If the Queen Mother insists on rewards, those palace maids and eunuchs also need a leader to control them. I see that your father-in-law is solid and reliable, so why not let him take care of him for the time being?" One or two, I wonder if the Queen Mother is willing to part with it?"
The noble father-in-law watched with relish the two equally scheming women pulling to the limit. Unexpectedly, the flames of war burned onto him, frightening his heart and making him feel bad all over.
How could the princess do this?
The Queen Mother was suspicious by nature, and this move was specifically to test the Princess. If the Princess pushed him out at this time, wouldn't she push him to death?
What crime did he do?
It wasn't enough that he was tortured all the way by the princess when he came back. Now that he finally got the job done, the princess wants to drag him into the quagmire again?
And let no one live?
The Queen Mother did not expect that Chu Zhao would choose your father-in-law. She squinted her eyes and looked at your father-in-law. She thought to herself that Princess Jingnan was very eloquent and was used to instigating rebellion against her enemies. She could not have instigated the rebellion of the little noble son on her way back to Beijing. ?
Otherwise, why did she choose Xiao Guizi even though she knew he was the most useful person around her?
No.
Regardless of whether Xiao Guizi was incited to rebel, she couldn't take the risk.
The Queen Mother rolled her eyes and thought for a while, then said with a smile: "Although the little noble son is smart, he lacks some composure. You have to trust the Ai family. The Ai family will choose one for you, and it is better to keep it than the little noble son."
"..." Chu Zhao hesitated for a moment, and the boss asked reluctantly, "Who does the Queen Mother think is the most suitable?"
"Gao Lin." The Queen Mother said, "Gao Lin has been with the Ai family for several years. He talks less but acts very steadily. Do you still have an impression of him?"
Chu Zhao secretly smiled in his heart, but said with confusion on his face: "Eunuch Gao is indeed quite stable, but he is not familiar with the prince. Your father-in-law lived in Yunzhou for a few days before and is more familiar with the prince."
When your father-in-law heard this, he wanted to die.
When the Queen Mother saw that Chu Zhao still liked her father-in-law, she became more and more unable to let her get her wish: "It doesn't matter whether he is familiar with her or not. The main thing is to do things safely. The Ai family is tired, so let's just settle the matter!"
"Okay then!" Chu Zhao glanced at your father-in-law regretfully, "I am very grateful to the Queen Mother for being so considerate. This little thing is not worth wasting the Queen Mother's precious time. I'd better give the Queen Mother acupuncture first!"
"Yes." The Queen Mother saw her regret in her eyes and smiled from the bottom of her heart, "Don't worry about it. The Ai family will let Gao Lin take care of the arrangements for the rest."
"Yes." Chu Zhao bowed his head in response and never mentioned the matter again.
Later in the evening, the Queen Mother asked Gao Lin to take a dozen of her carefully selected eunuchs and maids to the Jingnan Prince's Mansion. Before leaving, Yin Yin told Gao Lin to pay close attention to King Jingnan's every move and report any abnormalities at any time.
After Gao Lin left, the Queen Mother had her father-in-law tied up and tortured, forcing him to tell the whole process of being instigated by Chu Zhao.
Your father-in-law screamed about his injustice all night long, but he was beaten to the point of losing his human form, and nothing happened.
Early the next morning, He Yunjie came over to pay his respects to the Queen Mother. He was shocked on the spot when he heard the Queen Mother talk about this matter.
Your father-in-law has been with the Queen Mother for so many years, how could he be easily instigated to rebel?
Although he was not sure whether there was anything wrong with Gao Lin, who was personally selected by the Queen Mother, he was sure that there was absolutely nothing wrong with the noble father-in-law, who was chosen by Chu Zhao.
The Queen Mother has fallen into that woman's trap again.
In this way, it is difficult to say whether your father-in-law, who was not incited to rebel in the first place, will remain loyal to the Queen Mother as always after suffering such a great injustice and such a severe punishment.
Just like Fang Weixian, it was Chu Zhao who dragged him into the water, but Chu Zhao became his savior.
Therefore, in order to prevent Chu Zhao from repeating his old tricks on your father-in-law, your father-in-law cannot be spared his life no matter what.
After all, your father-in-law has been with the Queen Mother for many years and knows too many secrets.
With this thought in mind, He Yunjie did not try to explain your father-in-law's grievances to the Queen Mother, but said in a calm tone: "Since my aunt knows that this person is unfaithful, let's just kill him. What does it matter whether he confesses or not?"
Although the Queen Mother usually relies on her father-in-law, she is just a slave, so there is nothing to be sorry for, let alone a rebellious slave.
"Just do it. You can ask someone to take it elsewhere." The Queen Mother waved her hand, "Two palace ladies died in the palace just a few days ago. Too much evil will affect the feng shui."
"Okay." He Yunjie nodded in agreement, and went out to arrange for someone to take your father-in-law out of Ci'an Palace and execute him secretly.
"Huai'an, come, come to the Imperial Grandmother." She opened her hand and said to Princess Huai'an.
Princess Huai'an hesitated for a moment, then obediently stepped forward to bow and snuggled into her arms.
The Queen Mother hugged the princess and patted her gently: "Huai'an is such a good boy. Following Princess Jingnan in the past few days, he has become more and more energetic."
